Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Pei Mingchen smiled gently and took out a fingernail from his pocket. He placed it gently on Mu Qiannian’s open palm.
Mu Qiannian’s expectant expression slowly froze on her face.
She looked at Pei Mingchen repeatedly, as if asking if he was really not joking.
Pei Mingchen found her quick-witted expression interesting.
“There’s more to this surprise. Don’t be anxious. Keep it well. It’s very important.”
After Pei Mingchen finished speaking, he took out his phone from his pocket, as if he was rummaging through something.
Mu Qiannian’s suspicious gaze landed on the fingernail on her palm.
‘It’s very important? What’s important about it? How important can it be?’
If Mu Qiannian did not rely on her understanding of Pei Mingchen, she would definitely misunderstand that he was toying with her!
Pei Mingchen found the recording that he wanted to play, pressed the play button, and quietly stared at Mu Qiannian’s expression.
After listening to Pei He’s voice recording, Mu Qiannian was stunned for a long time before she suddenly screamed out in excitement.
“No way! No way!”
Pei Mingchen nodded his head with certainty, and Mu Qiannian was about to explode!
He laughed out loud, “Pei He is still somewhat useful. I asked him for compensation in the afternoon, but I didn’t expect that the compensation would be delivered at night!”
Mu Qiannian changed her opinion of the nail and took great care of it.
She even tore a few pages from the book that was originally used for drawing and used them to carefully wrap the nail, afraid that it would fall off.
Mu Qiannian, who was completely immersed in joy, did not notice Pei Mingchen’s flash of unhappiness.
If he could, he would not have used Pei He’s name to give this thing to Niannian.
However, if Pei Mingchen did not look for Pei He and used his own identity to pass the item to her, she would be suspicious and Pei Mingchen’s identity might even be exposed.
Pei Mingchen did not want Niannian to know his identity so quickly.
If his identity was exposed, Niannian might no longer pity him and be gentle and considerate to him.
Mu Qiannian, who had recovered from her excitement, finally thought of what was wrong.
“Why do you have Pei He’s voice message? Why did Pei he give you such an important thing? Didn’t you two not know each other when you were at the hospital?”
The series of questions did not seem to have exceeded Pei Mingchen’s expectations.
He must have already planned to be interrogated by Niannian if he thought of asking Pei He to cooperate.
Of course, he had already thought of the appropriate explanation.
Pei Mingchen’s expression and tone were calm. “I bumped into him in the afternoon. He recognized me as the man you brought to the hospital. He said that he had something else to attend to and asked me to give him something. Then, he asked me to record an audio recording.”
After Pei Mingchen finished speaking, his eyes suddenly became dejected.
Mu Qiannian had already believed his words unconditionally. She saw the dejected and aggrieved expression on his face.
Mu Qiannian thought that her question had hurt Pei Mingchen. She hurriedly grabbed his arm and explained anxiously, “My tone might have been a little serious just now, but I didn’t understand the truth of the matter at that time. It wasn’t directed at you. Don’t think too much about it.”
Pei Mingchen shook his head. “I believe you. It wasn’t because of this matter.”
Mu Qiannian was puzzled. “Then what was it because of?”
Pei Mingchen’s lowered eyes flashed with shrewd calculation.
“Pei He said that I’m a gigolo who relies on my looks to make a living. He also said that you won’t dump me in a short period of time and that it will take some time for you to get tired of me. So, will you really abandon me?”
“Nonsense! His mouth is even worse than a butt that can deflate!”
‘What does he mean by a gigolo who relies on his looks?’
‘What does he mean by I won’t dump Pei Mingchen in a short period of time?’
‘What does he mean by I’ll be tired of playing with Pei Mingchen?’
‘Pei Mingchen is not a gigolo!’
Mu Qiannian would never dump Pei Mingchen!
She will never get tired of playing with him..
‘No, I’m not playing him at all! Not at all!’
‘I want to treat Pei Mingchen with sincerity. I want to be husband and wife with him. I want to be a couple with him that will sweetly in love for the rest of our lives.’
‘I can’t help but think of Pei Mingchen, that face that he owes me, and that cheap mouth of his.’
No matter what, Pei Mingchen was still an adult man and he was slandered by Pei He.
How much psychological harm and humiliation did Pei He inflict on Pei Mingchen?
When Mu Qiannian thought about how Pei Mingchen had gone through the humiliation to bring news back from Pei He for her.
Mu Qiannian’s heart ached terribly. She made a decision in her heart.
Next time, the next time she saw Pei He, she would beat him up first.
She took the initiative to put her hand around Pei Mingchen’s neck and raised her head to look into his eyes.
She looked at him with a very sincere gaze and her tone was very certain.
“You are not some gigolo who lives off a woman. If someone says that again, you can raise your fist and teach him a lesson. I will help you clean up the aftermath. You can do it.”
After expressing her determination sincerely, she felt that it was not specific enough.
After deliberating for a while, Mu Qiannian softened her tone and said, “But remember, if they don’t provoke you, don’t take the initiative to offend them either. We’re not afraid of trouble, but we don’t want to cause trouble either. Do you understand?”
Pei Mingchen’s heart was already in a mess. He wished he could hug her tightly.
He restrained himself and nodded obediently. Mu Qiannian smiled in satisfaction.
She took the initiative to take a step back.
The softness of her embrace faded away. A look of disappointment flashed across Pei Mingchen’s eyes, but it was quickly concealed.
Early the next morning, Mu Qiannian could not contain her excitement. She got up early and rushed to the hospital.
This time, because she was worried about something, she once again neglected that a sneaky tail was following behind her.
Pei Mingchen followed closely after Mu Qiannian left the hotel.
His car had always maintained a very safe distance. Halfway through the journey, he noticed that there was a white SUV following Mu Qiannian.
He did not dare to alert the enemy on the road because it would make Mu Qiannian suspicious.
It was not until they reached the hospital that the man in the SUV got off.
Pei Mingchen seized the opportunity and quickly grabbed the sneaky man.
“Tell me, who sent you?”
Pei Mingchen’s cold voice rang out. When the man saw that his whereabouts had been exposed, he immediately wanted to struggle and escape.
Pei Mingchen directly kicked the man’s leg and asked sternly again, “Who sent you?”
The man could not resist the pain and wanted to fall to the ground. Pei Mingchen held him up and pressed him against the wall.
The man felt that the man behind him was not easy to deal with. He rolled his eyes and made up a story, “It was Second Young Master Pei. It was Second Young Master Pei who sent me here.”
Pei Mingchen was skeptical. “How can you prove it?”
The man trembled and stuttered, “I can’t prove it either. However, I’m only following Miss Mu and I’m not doing anything dangerous. Please let me go!”
Pei Mingchen was silent for a while before letting go of the man. “Scram!”
The man was able to escape. As he retreated, he thanked Pei Mingchen profusely.
After getting into his car, the man locked the door in fear. He took out his phone and typed a message with trembling hands.
