Chapter 121 His Calm Madness
Shen Shuyi felt that there was a lot of tension between the Pei brothers.

Her beautiful eyes darted around, and she whispered, "How about I go inside and you two cousins ​​can talk privately? We can put our minds at ease. After all, we're brothers, and there's no grudge that lasts overnight."

Pei Nanzhou hated Shen Shuyi's flirtatious ways the most. He hadn't been out and about for a while, and she had even made a move on Beizhou.

Perhaps he should have taken away Shen's innocence; once the other brothers saw that she was defiled, they would no longer have any interest in her.

Although Shen Shuyi couldn't see Pei Nanzhou's expression, she felt goosebumps on her skin, as if she were being stared at by a venomous snake.

Pei Dongzhou also caught a glimpse of the darkness in Pei Nanzhou's eyes.

He was about to snatch Shen Shuyi from Pei Nanzhou's hands when Pei Nanzhou suddenly let go.

Shen Shuyi seized the opportunity to run into the house, thinking to herself, "What kind of mess is this?"

It was bad enough that Pei Beizhou had gone mad, but he also brought over another scoundrel, Pei Nanzhou. Although she was used to Pei Nanzhou disliking her, she wasn't sure what outrageous things he might do.

She was afraid that Pei Nanzhou would do something extreme, such as... taking her life.

The Pei brothers are becoming increasingly terrifying, and she feels she might need to find a way out.

"System, come out! What stage is my mission at? Also, have I completed the blind date mission I did before?" Shen Shuyi hid in her dormitory, wanting to communicate with the system.

Last time she asked Pei Beizhou to do a fortune telling, the system said it was against the rules. Later, Pei Beizhou took the initiative to do the fortune telling, and the system didn't say anything. Does that mean her fortune telling task has been completed?
[Impromptu Battleground Mission Triggered: Host, make Pei Nanzhou and Pei Dongzhou fight within 15 minutes!]

Shen Shuyi: ...

This system is completely useless. It not only fails to help her resolve her doubts, but it also stirs up trouble.

How does she get the two male leads to fight?
She resigned herself to her fate and left the hall, going to the courtyard, where she saw the Pei brothers standing opposite her, the atmosphere somewhat tense.

Fine, so be it. She'd risk it all to complete the mission.

She rushed out quickly, and for a moment, the Pei brothers looked at her at the same time, seemingly not understanding why she had hidden and then run out.

After Shen Shuyi charged over with great fanfare, she cowered behind Pei Shizi and said to Pei Nanzhou, "What exactly did I do to make Second Cousin hate me so much? Since Cousin Shizi is here today, let's explain it all at once!"

"Do I even need to say it? My cousin is restless, ambitious but incompetent, seducing everyone. Not content with just messing with my older brother, she even went after the Western and Northern Continents..."

To spite Pei Nanzhou, Shen Shuyi chimed in knowingly, "So that's how it is. I understand now. Second cousin is upset because I didn't seduce him, right?"

Pei Nanzhou's expression changed slightly, and he looked coldly at Shen Shuyi: "What did you say, cousin? I didn't hear you clearly. Why don't you say it again, cousin?"

"I said, my second cousin must have fallen for me, but I ignored him. He was so jealous that he..."

Before Shen Shuyi could finish speaking, Pei Nanzhou suddenly strode up to her and was about to grab her by the neck.

She was prepared and quickly dodged, not forgetting to provoke Pei Nanzhou: "Did I hit a nerve, Second Cousin, that's why you're so angry?"

At this moment, Pei Nanzhou had only one thought: he wanted to strangle Shen Shuyi, this self-deluded woman.

Seeing this, Pei Dongzhou tried to stop the farce: "Nanzhou, that's enough!"

Pei Nanzhou wouldn't listen to Pei Dongzhou's words. Just as he was about to grab Shen Shuyi's neck, Pei Dongzhou stepped forward, grabbed his arm, and said in a deep voice, "Nanzhou, that's enough."

Pei Nanzhou knew that Pei Dongzhou was protecting Shen Shuyi, and he was furious: "Big brother can't bear to lay a hand on my cousin Shen because he likes..." Before he could finish speaking, he was punched in the face by Pei Shizi.

Pei Nanzhou was not to be outdone and wanted to fight back, but Pei Shizi's martial arts were superior to his. He could only touch the hem of Pei Shizi's clothes before Pei Shizi dodged it.

In an instant, the Pei brothers fought each other, just as Shen Shuyi had wished.

Shen Shuyi was waiting for the system to notify her that the task was completed, but unfortunately, the system pretended to be dead and didn't make a sound.

However, she felt that her mission was accomplished.

Heaven have mercy, she only offended Pei Er again in order to complete the mission.

On the surface, it appeared to be a duel between the Pei brothers, but Pei Nanzhou was somewhat out of sorts. Both brothers were skilled in martial arts, but Pei Shizi's skills were clearly superior to Pei Nanzhou's, resulting in a one-sided situation.

After watching the commotion for a while, Shen Shuyi, fearing she wouldn't be able to complete her task, simply added, "Young Master, please have mercy and don't kill Second Cousin."

Her words clearly angered Pei Nanzhou again.

The unfortunate outcome was that Pei Nanzhou was forced to the ground by Pei Dongzhou, looking utterly pathetic.

At this point, Shen Shuyi became quiet. She felt that Pei Nanzhou's malice towards her couldn't have gotten any worse than it was now, but she wondered if Pei Nanzhou would try to kill her next.

She's really courting death and dying at the same time.

Seeing Pei Nanzhou kneeling on one knee with his cold eyes fixed on Shen Shuyi, Pei Dongzhou simply blocked his gaze.

“Even if your cousin’s words were unpleasant, you shouldn’t have laid a hand on a woman like her. Nan Zhou, where has your manners gone?” Pei Dongzhou knew that Pei Nan Zhou had a strong sense of pride, but he still couldn’t understand where Nan Zhou’s malice towards his cousin Shen came from.

Pei Nanzhou said calmly, "Brother is right. I was reckless this time."

Seeing Pei Nanzhou's calm demeanor sent a chill down Shen Shu's spine. The most frightening thing is when a person who's gone mad suddenly stops being mad; this is a calm madness, more terrifying than insanity.

At this moment, Pei Nanzhou stood up and casually brushed the dust off his clothes. He walked over slowly, as refined and elegant as when Shen Shuyi first met him.

“Cousin, let’s make up. I was wrong before; I shouldn’t have been so malicious towards you.” Pei Nanzhou gave Shen Shuyi a faint smile.

Shen Shuyi felt a chill run down her spine and subconsciously looked at Pei Dongzhou, wanting to ask the young master what was going on.

Prince Pei clearly couldn't understand why Pei Nanzhou had changed so quickly and so drastically.

Seeing his cousin's bewildered look, he slowly walked over and said, "It's best if Nanzhou comes to his senses. You two should get along well from now on."

But there must be a reason for this unusual situation. The changes in Nanzhou were too rapid, and he began to worry about his cousin Shen.

"I'll listen to you, brother. I'll get along well with my cousin from now on and I promise I won't let you worry anymore," Pei Nanzhou replied calmly.

Shen Shuyi wanted to find fault with Pei Nanzhou, but since Pei Er's attitude was so good, she couldn't find a reason to kick him out.

What's most terrifying is that Pei Nanzhou isn't on duty, but the young master Pei is a very busy man. She fears that when the young master Pei isn't at the Marquis's residence, Pei Nanzhou will make a move against her.
