"So this is how you all work!"
"The Pei family pays you three times more than outside, and this is how you just go through the motions?"
"Looks like I need to have a serious talk with Grandpa! I need to get him to replace us with a more capable group, so that you good-for-nothings won't even know when a thief breaks into the Pei family!"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, the bodyguard immediately stopped and turned around to see Pei Minghao, who had just returned after a night of partying.
At this moment, Pei Minghao reeked of alcohol. Although he wasn't seriously drunk, he clearly looked like he had just woken up from a hangover, with a slight buzz on his face. This was probably why he had inexplicably come to provoke Jiang Yinglin.
The bodyguard felt a bitter taste in his mouth, realizing something was wrong, but on the surface he still bowed respectfully to Pei Minghao.
"Third Young Master, it was my oversight. I will send someone to investigate immediately."
Upon seeing this, Jiang Yinglin immediately stopped the bodyguard, a faint smile on his handsome face.
"Young Master Pei, it's only a little past four in the morning. It's probably not a good idea for you to make such a fuss and wake everyone up like this. Old Master Pei's health has always been poor. I wonder what he'll think if he finds out that you're the one who made such a big fuss so early in the morning and kept him from sleeping?"
Pei Minghao stared at Jiang Yinglin's smiling face, wishing he could tear that smile to shreds with his own hands.
He gave a cold snort of annoyance and gave orders to the bodyguard.
"I didn't ask you to make such a commotion. Search each room upstairs from here!"
After giving these instructions, Pei Minghao turned to Jiang Yinglin with a cold smile and asked in return.
"This way, it shouldn't bother Grandpa, right, Young Master Jiang?"
Jiang Yinglin was still smiling, his smile almost as radiant as the sun before it rose.
He shrugged indifferently.
"Since the Third Young Master has said so, what can I, an outsider, say?"
Pei Minghao narrowed his eyes, his face, reeking of alcohol, contorted with a slight ferocity, and spoke to Jiang Yinglin.
"I hope Young Master Jiang isn't trying to cover for someone, because I'm definitely going to find out!"
Pei Minghao smiled and leaned closer to Jiang Yinglin, whispering in his ear.
"When the time comes, I'll catch those who are having affairs. Don't thank me too much, Young Master Jiang! After all, it's also a good thing for your master. Otherwise, he's already in such a miserable state. If he doesn't even know that he's been cuckolded, then he'd be a bit pitiful."
Of course, once they caught Ye Ningwan cheating on her husband, the eldest branch of the Pei family would do everything in their power to prevent Pei Fengzhi from getting a divorce.
They wanted to humiliate Pei Fengzhi, to make him lose face completely, so that he could only swallow all the humiliation and face his wife who had betrayed him day and night, constantly reminding him that he was no longer the Pei Fengzhi who had gotten whatever he wanted a few years ago.
Just thinking about these things made Pei Minghao tremble with excitement.
In front of him, Jiang Yinglin's fists were clenched so tightly they cracked. He glanced in the direction of Ye Ningwan's room, then swallowed his anger and smiled at Pei Minghao.
“Then I will go with Young Master Pei.”
Having witnessed the scene firsthand with Pei Fengzhi's men, Pei Minghao naturally agreed without hesitation.
The remaining rooms were naturally handed over to the bodyguards below. Pei Minghao led the rest of the men and headed aggressively toward Ye Ningwan's room, while Jiang Yinglin was left at the very back, and no one paid him any attention.
...
Knock knock knock!
A loud knocking sound rang out in Ye Ningwan's room, and the voice outside carried an uncontrollable air of boasting and smugness.
"Ye Ningwan, open the door! I know you're awake. Open the door for me, or I'll have it kicked down!"
The next second, the bedroom door was yanked open.
Pei Minghao's hand was about to fall, just as it was about to land on Ye Ningwan's face, when his wrist was suddenly grabbed.
"ah!!!"
Pei Minghao let out a shrill scream.
Ye Ningwan reached out and flung Pei Minghao away.
Pei Minghao crashed heavily into the wall, staggering and grabbing for support. Just as he was about to fall to the ground, his bodyguard immediately caught him.
"Third Young Master!"
Pei Minghao immediately steadied himself. Once he was on his feet, he shoved away the bodyguard who was supporting him and turned to glare fiercely at the person standing at the door.
At the bedroom door, Ye Ningwan stood there, wearing a silk slip dress with a matching morning robe draped over her shoulders, which made her look somewhat languid. Her long hair was slightly curled and loose, as if she had just woken up and was still a little sleepy.
Bathed in the light streaming through the window, she was enveloped in a soft glow, exuding an aura of sacred inviolability.
Pei Minghao gritted his teeth and said resentfully.
"Ye Ningwan!"
Ye Ningwan crossed her arms and looked down at Pei Minghao with a cold smile.
"Pei Minghao, you're looking for a beating this early in the morning? Are you itching for a beating again?"
Upon hearing this, Pei Minghao immediately recalled how Ye Ningwan had beaten him so badly that he felt no remorse or anger, only rage.
"Ye Ningwan, you shameless woman! You've cheated on your husband and still dare to say such things! I'll make you pay today!"
As Pei Minghao spoke, he rushed towards Ye Ningwan, intending to push her aside and enter the room.
"Get out of the way!"
Without saying a word, Ye Ningwan kicked Pei Minghao away.
"Pei Minghao, don't you know where you are? If you've drunk too much, go find your mother to sober up, don't come here and cause trouble!"
