Chapter 357 I Have Something to Say to You (Cheng Yubai and Pei Yan)

I thought that with Cheng Yubai and Qiu Ze joining us today, it would be lively enough, but before dinner, the gate outside the courtyard opened by itself.

Pei Yan also made a sudden appearance after a long absence.

"Why did you come here?" Shen Zhaoyi was a little annoyed by the noise and was sitting in a rocking chair by the French windows, rubbing her temples.

“I saw Xiaoze’s post on WeChat Moments and knew he was here with you, so I thought I’d come and take a look.”

"Just to freeload a meal."

Pei Yan placed the car keys on the cabinet by the door.

The temporary brother who had been communicating with the wealthy man on the other side finally heard the noise and turned around.

Cheng Yubai and he had a grudge against each other before, and neither of them was in a good mood at the moment.

Qiu Ze, on the other hand, stood up excitedly upon seeing Pei Yan and called out to him, "Brother!"

Without any unnecessary words, it's much more affectionate than the previous "sister-in-law brother".

Cheng Yubai couldn't help but curse inwardly: You ungrateful wretch!
However, judging from this situation, Qiu Yu's younger brother has a very good relationship with Pei Yan, which means that the two of them already knew each other.

His veiled gaze swept over Shen Zhaoyi, who was hiding in peace and quiet not far away.

He's a master at playing with people's feelings, managing to get his good friend involved with him. I wonder what Qiu Ze will think when he finds out.

Although Cheng Yubai sometimes likes to harm others for his own benefit, he surprisingly refrained from speaking out at this critical juncture.

Because it will be exposed sooner or later.

Pei Yan was afraid of birds, and the wealthy man was still standing on Qiu Ze's head, so their reminiscing didn't last long.

However, when he learned that Qiu Yu had taken the initiative to deliver it, he began to understand the reason behind it.

I took two steps back and decided to get away from this area first.

"You play first, I need to talk to your sister-in-law about something."

"Okay, brother, go ahead." Qiu Ze quickly turned his attention back to the rich man, thinking about raising one when he got back.

Cheng Yubai, listening to the strange arrangement of identities in this conversation, curled the corners of his lips.

Before lunch, he had asked who had existed before him, and Pei Yan was not among them.

Therefore, this is a deliberate attempt to confuse the issue.

There is progress.

But Pei Yan's preparations for this trip didn't stop there.

He sat down opposite Shen Zhaoyi, just across a small round table, and asked about the arrangements for Xu Wei.

"Are you sure you can fool people by sending that black kid?"

It's not that I don't trust them, it's just that I feel it's outrageous that Qiu Yu investigated for two years without any results, and then let an outsider solve it so easily.

Shen Zhaoyi pointed with her finger, "They have names, Lin Yao or Mu Mu, just pick one. Don't keep giving them random nicknames, it's impolite."

"Okay." Pei Yan readily changed his mind: "Looks like things have progressed between you and Lin Yao?"

That day, he was supposed to meet Xu Wei and then go back to the team to talk, but he got drunk and it got delayed, so much so that he still doesn't know what happened next.

Shen Zhaoyi focused on the key points, leaving the matter of the eight million unmentioned for the time being.

Pei Yan has a fiery temper; if he finds out, he'll definitely be furious.

"I think Xu Wei is planning to do something in the next race, probably the same as before, to sabotage the car."

“There must be an inside man in the convoy,” Shen Zhaoyi said, offering her opinion.

Pei Yan also thought of this.

During the race, the car had a problem, causing it to lose speed later on.

The person most likely to come into contact with this area is Xu Wei, who is in charge of management and maintenance.

Remembering how this person had jumped out to smear him, he was filled with rage. "When I get back, I'll add more surveillance cameras and see if I can catch them in the act." Shen Zhaoyi didn't entirely agree with this idea.

"Don't rush after you get the photo. Try to bribe them a little to get them to turn against you."

Instead of catching them in the act, give them a chance. Sometimes, when dogs fight, you might get an unexpected surprise.

They're all just doing things for money, so there's not much loyalty involved.

Seeing her confident demeanor, Pei Yan stopped trying to persuade her and immediately took out his phone to discuss the matter with Xiao Yuan. They would have to go back and study the other details later.

When the chat ended and he looked at Shen Zhaoyi again, a sense of unease arose spontaneously.

At first, I was preoccupied with Qiu Ze and Xu Wei and didn't have time to think about anything else. Now that I have some free time, thoughts are starting to pop into my head.

Seeing that Qiu Ze and Cheng Yubai had gone to the side hall and there was no one else to disturb them, Pei Yan made up his mind. Since he was already here, he decided to take this opportunity to make everything clear.

"Shen Zhaoyi," he said, calling out the name very seriously.

The woman looked up, waiting for what was to come.

"I have something to tell you."

"Speak, I'm listening." Shen Zhaoyi gave Pei Yan a chance.

Just as he was gathering his emotions and preparing to express his feelings in words, an unexpected—no, a phone call—broke the atmosphere he had painstakingly created.

Logically, you don't need to answer at this point.

But the contact person's name is "Cong Lang," so I still have to accept the call.

If there's been no news all day and they suddenly contact me now, it must be something urgent.

Shen Zhaoyi asked Pei Yan to wait a moment, then stood up and walked to the door before putting the receiver to her ear and greeting him, "Hello?"

"Oh, Miss Shen!" Cong Lang's voice was filled with obvious joy. "Mr. Shen has agreed to your request. As for the timing, when would be a convenient time?"

Having anticipated this outcome, Shen Zhaoyi was prepared, saying it would be fine over the weekend.

"So fast?"

"It's alright, there'll be new work waiting for you when you get back."

"Miss Shen really doesn't give me any rest time at all." Cong Lang complained, but in his heart he was secretly overjoyed.

Having a commission means you'll get paid, especially when it's from the same generous client.

Our lawyer Cong even had the illusion that he was about to become Shen Zhaoyi's exclusive property.

After exchanging messages, they hung up the phone.

Back in the main house, just as she was about to continue the confession ceremony that she hadn't finished earlier, she noticed that Pei Yan, who had been sitting there, had disappeared.

Instead, Qiu Ze looked completely bewildered.

"Where's your brother?"

"He's hiding in that room."

Shen Zhaoyi followed the direction and looked towards the side hall.

Why are the man and the bird fighting again?
Qiu Ze was still explaining, "I didn't know Brother Pei was afraid of birds. I saw him sitting here all alone and bored, so I thought I'd come and chat with him..."

"It's alright." Cheng Yubai patted his shoulder earnestly. "Look, he's got something to do now."

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhaoyi instantly understood that someone must have been secretly plotting against her, using the child as a scapegoat.

I just hope dinner will be ready quickly so we can eat and then go our separate ways.

As for the others, today might not be the right time.

Seemingly hearing Shen Zhaoyi's prayer, Xu Meng appeared in the restaurant less than half an hour later and began setting out the bowls and chopsticks.

Qiu Ze really enjoyed the lively scene of many people sitting together, so he quickly pulled Cheng Yu Bai over to sit down.

Pei Yan, who had barely escaped the bird's pursuit, was puzzled when he saw this scene: How did their relationship become so good?
