Chapter 100: You Can Interfere
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
No wonder Pei Yutang had turned to her without giving this much thought as a final desperate attempt. Pei Yucheng was practically impenetrable, and he certainly had a reason to stick to his principles. After a few sentences, she had been convinced and brainwashed by him.
It was impossible to try to convince him or reason with him.
Pei Yucheng was a man of principles, and he would never break his principles.
This was such a headache…
She wasn’t someone who could debate well to begin with. Every time she had quarreled with Han Yixuan, she had always been beaten by him. She had given in each time, as she hadn’t been able to out-talk him.
Lin Yan sighed and shot a look at Pei Yutang that seemed to say, “I’ve tried my best. I wish you all the best. I’ll always remember you.”
Pei Yutang was well aware of this fact. He had tried to struggle and protest so far merely because he couldn’t take this lying down.
The young man gazed intently at the documents as the last gleam of hope in his eyes was extinguished. He clenched his fists and said with red eyes, “I didn’t manage to do what I promised. It’s my fault. I will leave…”
Lin Yan, who was really at her wits’ end, inched a little closer to Pei Yucheng and extended her hand to tug at the man’s sleeves. “That… Sorry, I know this is a family affair and I shouldn’t be interfering, but… You really can’t give Third Young Master another chance?”
Pei Yucheng was speechless…
Lin Yan pleaded. “Please give him another chance. Please, I’m begging you… Can you?”
Pei Yucheng didn’t respond as his eyes trailed from the girl’s eyes and landed on her tiny hand, which was tugging at his sleeve.
Lin Yan coughed softly. “Hmmm… Forget it. If you really can’t…”
After a long while, Lin Yan decided to rest her case and bid Pei Yutang goodbye. Suddenly, she heard the man’s voice in her ears.
Pei Yucheng replied, “I can.”
Lin Yan was speechless…
Pei Nanxu was speechless…
Pei Yutang was speechless…
Had he heard right?
Lin Yan’s eyes widened in incredulity and amazement. “Huh? You… agreed?”
Why would he agree? Why would he change his mind for no reason? She had already given up, as there had been no glimmer of hope left!
“I can give him another chance,” Pei Yucheng repeated firmly.
Lin Yan couldn’t help but blurt out, “Why did you suddenly agree…”
Pei Nanxu and Pei Yutang glanced at their oldest brother simultaneously.
They knew their Big Brother too well. Due to his intelligence, no one had ever succeeded in convincing him. Besides, he had absolutely never broken his principles for anyone or anything.
Thus, earlier on, when Pei Yucheng had merely questioned Pei Nanxu again when he’d tried to interfere, Pei Nanxu had waved the white flag immediately.
Pei Yucheng’s eyes, which were as black as ink, lit up with a faint smile when he saw Lin Yan’s bewildered expression. His eyes were fixed on the girl as he said clearly, “Reasoning with my girlfriend isn’t a wise act.”
Lin Yan was speechless…
He… was literally killing her with mere words!
The man stopped speaking, yet Lin Yan’s heart kept pounding violently against her ribcage. The man before her had seemed so icy and aloof a second ago that there had been no room for discussion. However, a second later, he seemed to have melted and become affectionate. He had even given in to her pleas.
Pei Yutang was speechless…
What kind of discrimination was this?
Pei Yucheng had just finished speaking, when he added, “Besides, you can interfere.”
Lin Yan was still in a daze, so she didn’t manage to comprehend what Pei Yucheng was saying. “What do you mean?”
Pei Yucheng elaborated. “In my family affairs. You can interfere in my family affairs.”
Pei Nanxu, who was dumbstruck, felt conflicted.
