Qin Bai took a tissue and wiped away the tears on Pei Wanyin's face.
"Sister Wanyin, if you keep crying, when we go out later, other people will think you've been stealing food."
"Pah! It's not that exaggerated."
"No? I remember you always doing that..."
Pei Wanyin immediately covered his mouth, and his commotion shattered the atmosphere of the trial.
She sat on Qin Bai's lap unwillingly, pinching his face with both hands at the same time.
With a fierce look in his eyes, he said, "Xiao Bai, if you ever dare to take such risks again, I'll punish you by making sure you never sleep in my bed again."
"Huh?" Qin Bai was shocked. "Is the punishment this severe? No! How can I live without Sister Wanyin?"
"That's settled then, and the same goes for everyone else." Pei Wanyin's eyes were full of pride.
Qin Bai stammered, "That's too cruel. Since that's the case..."
His expression changed immediately upon seeing Pei Wanyin, and his hands began to wander.
"Then I can only eat my fill now."
After saying that, he pressed Pei Wanyin down onto the sofa.
"Wait, wait... Xiaobai, there's something important to say."
Two black stockings pressed against Qin Bai's chest, preventing him from making any further moves.
"Say whatever else you want quickly, then I want to...hehehehe."
Aunt Cheng will be there soon.
"Huh?" Qin Bai said, puzzled, "Even a private jet wouldn't be this fast, would it?"
“I sent someone over there this morning.”
Why are you in such a hurry?
Pei Wanyin sat up and straightened her clothes: "Then guess why we were so enthusiastic about your little Xuexue?"
The meaningful look in his eyes made Qin Bai realize something.
Could it be that Mom, the all-powerful mother, has intervened again?
"Did your mom call you?"
Pei Wanyin smiled and nodded: "Aunt Cheng held a family meeting last night, and your fish was in it too. I have to say, she was quite happy."
"And that's it?"
"Yes, it's actually quite simple, after all, she's a woman who keeps her word."
Qin Bai broke out in a cold sweat and stammered, "What...what did my mom say?"
"She said she wouldn't go back unless she broke three feather dusters during this trip."
Thud.
The small square blue box in Qin Bai's hand fell to the ground.
The sky has fallen!
I thought I had escaped a disaster.
result.
The biggest threat is on its way by plane.
This is really the end.
Pei Wanyin covered her mouth and chuckled as she looked at his dumbfounded expression.
The resentment in his heart was finally vented. If you were to ask who Qin Bai feared most in the world, it would probably be Cheng Jing.
Putting everything else aside, that mother really beat him up.
Pei Wanyin smiled and said, "I will plead for you then, but you have to tell me everything that happened abroad this time first."
"That's no problem."
This time, Qin Bai didn't hide anything and told her everything that had happened.
After listening, Pei Wanyin frowned slightly.
"After listening to your story, it seems that the He family genuinely wants to help you."
Qin Bai shook his head: "No, to be precise, they are doing things for the country."
"So that's why you keep your distance from He Lingyu?"
"More or less. The He sisters grew up in that kind of environment, and they often didn't consider themselves or those around them when making decisions. I truly admire them, but..."
Pei Wanyin smiled and nodded: "I understand. This is probably what attracts me most about you, because you make me feel very safe."
Qin Bai smiled and pulled her into his arms: "How's it going in Kyoto?"
"It's been very peaceful. The Luo family hasn't taken advantage of the situation during this time, and..."
"What's wrong?"
"There are rumors that Luohe is preparing to abdicate."
"What?"
Qin Bai's face was filled with disbelief.
Pei Wanyin laughed and said, "You don't believe it either, do you? Actually, I don't believe it either."
"Could it be that the pressure from above is too great?" Luo He thought... No, no, even if there is pressure from above, his people behind him will step in to smooth things over. He will never step down.
"Just as I thought, so there's only one truth."
"He wants to be the retired emperor."
Pei Wanyin smiled and said, "The Luo family does need someone who can take on the responsibility at this time. Luo Jingyi will be the person he chooses, but how much power he can give out is unknown."
After thinking for a moment, Qin Bai nodded in realization.
"Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! Old Deng's considerations are truly comprehensive. He has relieved the pressure while also nurturing the next generation. To outsiders, the Luo family shows no signs of decline; in fact, they seem to be thriving. It's estimated that Luo Jingyi will definitely make some big moves after taking over."
"You mean a tender?"
"That's right, it seems I need to go and have a talk with that guy."
Pei Wanyin asked, "Even if Luo Yuquan reveals his identity now, he won't achieve much in the Luo family, right? Once a hidden card is brought into the open, it becomes useless."
"That's true, but some information can still be gleaned through probing."
Qin Bai played with Qing Si's hair in his hand, while Pei Wanyin tilted her head and looked at his mischievous expression, her heart already beginning to pray for those people.
Needless to say, this boyfriend is digging another hole for her.
After chatting for a few more minutes, Qin Bai left the villa.
There's nothing I can do. That mother will be here soon. There are four others like Pei Wanyin who are easy to deal with.
