Even the tycoons of wealthy families kneel down; the real heiress is the matriarch.

"I've never seen that expression on his face before. It was like he'd eaten a pile of shit, and he was too ashamed to let us know he'd eaten shit, so he forced himself to swallow it... Hahahaha, that was so satisfying! Tell me, how did you do that?!"

Cheng Yizhou was ecstatic.

This was the first time in his life he had seen Cheng Dong get the short end of the stick.

In the past, no matter how harsh the words he said or even if he hit Cheng Dong, Cheng Dong would never show such an expression.

At most, he would just smile, or act like a woman and pretend to be wronged so that his father would scold him.

Bai Su said, "Didn't you hear everything I said?"

"But I don't understand why he got so angry when you didn't even say the word 'dirty'."

Bai Su confirmed that Cheng Yizhou was indeed a slow-witted idiot in this regard.

She had no choice but to explain it to him in a piecemeal fashion.

"At first, I tested him a few times and found that he was indeed very tolerant, so I thought he really didn't care what others said. It wasn't until my sister's reaction reminded me."

"What was the reaction?"

"She seems unaware that Cheng Dong is her stepson, or even that you exist."

Cheng Yizhou sneered: "I'm not in the capital, but he's definitely here bragging that he's the heir to the Cheng family. Many people who don't know the situation say the same thing, but that's impossible. My grandfather would never allow someone with absolutely no blood relation to the Cheng family to inherit the family business."

The wealthier and larger the family, the more they care about bloodlines.

Besides, Grandpa preferred him to the hypocritical Cheng Dong.

"So, he's still young and a bit vain."

"What do you mean?"

"Because of his vanity, he boasted that he was the heir, while concealing the fact that he was just a stepson. Of course, it was also because he had deceived himself and truly believed that he was the heir, until I mentioned Shancheng and exposed this fact."

Cheng Yizhou clapped his hands: "So he panicked! He's afraid you'll reveal his true identity on the spot, letting your adopted sister know that he's just an imposter!"

Bai Su laughed and said, "You finally thought of that. In the future, if you want to provoke him, you don't need to insult him. Just mention bloodlines and he will break down."

"I'll definitely try it next time!"

"It also depends on the occasion. This trick only works when those who don't know the truth are present. Otherwise, he might turn around and imply that he is the more favored son, making you go crazy. Once you go crazy, he will have the upper hand. So in the future, the less you scold him in front of him and the more you flatter him, the more flustered he will be."

"Me, support him? Never in this lifetime!"

"Don't you want to see him get his comeuppance?"

"Of course I want to!"

"If you want to, then do as I say. Especially when your dad praises him, you can't argue with him; you have to agree with what he says. He's a very thoughtful person, and the more thoughtful a person is, the more ideas they have. If you make any changes, he'll rack his brains trying to figure out what you're up to..."

The more Cheng Yizhou listened, the more sense it made.

"Ye Baisu, I've discovered that you're actually quite wicked."

"No matter when, bad people always have the upper hand. Of course, by bad I don't mean malicious, but rather scheming."

"You don't need to tell me that. I'm a very calculating person, and when I scheme against someone, it can be quite terrifying."

Bai Su chuckled and teased, "Yes, you're scary."

Cheng Yizhou was in a great mood and didn't take Bai Su's mockery to heart.

……

To get back to Bai Su's current home, they had to pass by the Central Hospital. Bai Su told Cheng Yizhou to go back first, while she got off at the Central Hospital.

Originally, she wanted to find an opportunity to sneak in again to treat Pei Yuanshan, but after observing the situation, she found that the ward was completely surrounded.

Let alone someone as big as her, even a fly would have a hard time getting in.

Bai Su had no choice but to give up for the time being, turned around and left the hospital, taking a taxi back to Zizhu Villa.

She told herself not to rush things.

Pei Yuanshan has already taken the medicine, and he should feel better in the next few days.

If Pei Wenyan had any sense, he would have known that he jumped in through the window not to harm anyone, but to save someone.

She had already told Pei Wenyan her name, and he would definitely come looking for her.

There's no rush; we'll just wait for him to come to us.

At the same time, Cheng Dong also escorted Ye Yixue to the entrance of the residential area.

Ye Yixue originally wanted to talk to Cheng Dong more on the way, but for some reason, after that meal, although Cheng Dong was still as gentle and refined as ever, she always felt that he was a bit more distant.

Was it because that idiot Ye Baisu said something wrong and offended him?

Ye Yixue lacked confidence in front of Cheng Dong, so she didn't dare to ask.

Only when the car arrived at the entrance of the residential area did she finally muster the courage to speak: "Adong, did my sister upset you?"

"Why would you think that? Your sister has a great personality, and of course, you have an even better one. Don't overthink it, let's go back."

Cheng Dong said with a smile.

But Ye Yixue felt that he wasn't telling the truth.

This is a woman's intuition.

You can tell from your intuition whether a guy is enthusiastic or not.

Ye Yixue was a little reluctant to get out of the car, so she said, "Would you like to come to my house for a while?"

"No need," Cheng Dong politely declined. "My family is strict; they'll scold me if I go home too late. Maybe next time."

Before Ye Yixue could say anything more, Cheng Dong had already given the driver the Cheng family's address.

Ye Yixue didn't want to be too enthusiastic and make herself seem cheap, so she had to hold back and get out of the car.

As the car door closed, she was about to wave goodbye when Cheng Dong rolled up the car window.

Ye Yixue's smile froze on her face.

This is not the attitude one should have after confessing their feelings.

Although she had never been in a relationship before, she must have seen pigs run even if she hadn't eaten pork, right?

People who have just confessed their feelings always want to be together all the time.

But Cheng Yizhou is completely different...

But Ye Yixue didn't think it was her problem, so the only one with a problem must be Bai Su.

Oh, and Cheng Dong's younger brother too. He's just like Bai Su, they're both scoundrels!

Ye Yixue gritted her teeth in hatred.

That damned Ye Baisu! They've already been kicked out, and now they're still getting in her way. What a jinx!

Fortunately, I probably won't have to see her again.

After Cheng Dong calmed down and realized what was happening, he would definitely turn back and apologize to her another day.

After calming herself down, Ye Yixue slowly walked home.

She didn't actually like this home very much.

Unfortunately, her family background was not good, and the highest place she could rely on was the Ye family.

But as soon as she reached the door, she immediately put on a smile.

Dong Suying likes to observe people, unlike Ye Baisu, who always has a stern face, as if everyone owes her five million.

As soon as Ye Yixue opened the door, she saw two pairs of leather shoes in the entryway.

These are all very expensive shoes, and the size is clearly not Ye Xiaofeng's size.

Ye Xiaofeng's feet are different from those of ordinary men; they are small, only size 38. Sometimes, he can even fit into her shoes.

They certainly weren't housekeepers or servants; they couldn't afford such fine leather shoes.

It seems we have some important guests.

Ye Yixue quickly tidied her hair, which had been blown about by the wind as she walked from the entrance of the residential area, straightened her clothes and skirt, and even took out a mirror to touch up her makeup before changing her shoes and turning into the entrance hall.

As expected, distinguished guests have arrived.

A handsome man sat upright on the sofa, with a young man in a similarly sharp suit and wearing gold-rimmed glasses standing beside him.

Ye Yixue recognized the man at a glance.

It's Pei Wenyan!

Pei Wenyan, the newly appointed chairman of the renowned Pei Group!

News reports say he is currently the most popular eligible bachelor in China because he is handsome, rich, and capable.

Ye Yixue had occasionally read the family's financial newspaper before, and she was amazed by Pei Wenyan's appearance in the photo.

He looks even more handsome in person than in the photos.

Ye Yixue suddenly became somewhat excited.

Did the Ye family actually get involved with Pei Wenyan?

Why have my parents never mentioned such a big thing?

This doesn't fit their personality at all...

But no matter what, this is a good thing.

When I go back to school, I can brag about it.

Of course, she's now Cheng Dong's girlfriend, so she doesn't need Pei Wenyan to brag about it.

But who wouldn't want to have more things to brag about?

Ye Yixue forced herself to calm down and stepped forward: "Dad, Mom, I'm home. Are there guests?"

Upon seeing her, Dong Suying immediately stood up and waved to her.

"Xue'er, come quick, this is President Pei, he wants to see you."

Ye Xiaofeng looked at her with a smile, his eyes full of praise, but also a hint of surprise.

It seems they never expected that Pei Wen would come to the banquet to see her.

Ye Yixue herself was even more surprised.

She thought Pei Wenyan had come to see Ye Xiaofeng.

Ye Yixue didn't know how Pei Wenyan knew her and came to her door, but her elation dispelled all her confusion.

It seems these past few days have been her lucky days.

Not only did the future heir of the Cheng Group confess his feelings to her, but Pei Wenyan, a complete stranger, also took the initiative to find her at her home.

Ye Yixue always knew she was outstanding, and she worked hard enough.

Whether it was learning texts or various skills and etiquette, she put in several times more effort than other real young ladies from wealthy families.

Because she was afraid that she might lose what she had at any time, she worked harder than anyone else.

And now, it seems that her efforts have finally paid off!

Ye Yixue's cheeks flushed slightly, and she stepped forward with a mixture of excitement and nervousness, asking, "President Pei, you... wanted to see me?"

As she spoke, she boldly looked at Pei Wenyan.

Pei Wenyan's pupils have a distinct brown tint, and his handsome features exude a mature masculine charm that even Cheng Dong lacks, giving him an imposing aura.

Ye Yixue had never met someone like this before, and her heart pounded like a drum.

Pei Wenyan was also looking at her.

He quickly shook his head: "You two have made a mistake. I'm not looking for this young lady."

The Ye couple were both stunned.

Ye Yixue was also stunned.

Her excitement was completely dispelled by that one sentence, turning into embarrassment and shame.

I wasn't looking for her...

It wasn't her they were looking for!

She was so happy inside, yet...
