Even the tycoons of wealthy families kneel down; the real heiress is the matriarch.
Chapter 40 Slandering Innocence
Ye Yixue felt as if she had been doused with a bucket of cold water.
But something even colder than the bucket of cold water happened quickly—
After saying, "I'm not looking for this young lady," Pei Wenyan asked Ye Xiaofeng, "Mr. Ye, is this your only daughter?"
These words struck Ye Yixue's heart like a silent but devastating blow.
Her face turned even paler.
actually……
Pei Wenyan actually came to see Bai Su?
Impossible! Bai Su, that country bumpkin, how could she possibly know someone like Pei Wenyan?
Even she was meeting Pei Wenyan in person for the first time today, let alone Bai Su.
There must be a mistake!
Ye Xiaofeng's expression changed for a moment before he spoke calmly, "I do have another daughter, but she was born to my wife and her ex-husband..."
"Yes," Dong Suying said somewhat awkwardly, "She was raised in the countryside before, and I only brought her here after her grandmother passed away. You... you're not looking for her, are you?"
"What's her name?" Pei Wenyan asked.
"Ye Baisu..." Dong Suying said, "She used to be called Baisu, but after coming to the capital, she changed her surname to Ye."
Do you have any photos?
"Photos...yes, they're just ID photos."
This photo was taken when I went to change my name.
"Please let me take a look at it."
Dong Suying left completely bewildered.
She didn't know what Pei Wenyan was planning, but she hoped in her heart that it wasn't anything bad.
Please, please don't let that girl cause trouble that involves the Pei family.
There's no escaping trouble. Pei Wenyan has come knocking on her door. If Bai Su really caused trouble, even if she doesn't provide the photos, the Pei family will still be able to find out.
It's better to just take it out directly.
She quickly found the photos and showed them to Pei Wenyan.
The girl in the photo doesn't have much of an expression; her eyes are cool and aloof, and her brows are slightly furrowed, as if she has complicated emotions that she can't unravel.
"It's her." Pei Wenyan clenched his fist slightly, then quickly relaxed it, as if a huge rock in his heart had finally been lifted and settled at this moment.
When Bai Su initially mistook him for her grandfather, she told him that her name was Ye Bai Su and asked him to go to the Ye family to find her.
He dismissed it as ravings of a madman.
Later, when they met in the hospital ward, he mistakenly thought she was trying to harm his grandfather and wanted to strangle her.
I only found out two days ago that this crazy woman was actually a miracle doctor.
Moreover, it seems that her grandfather and she have some kind of connection...
In the past few days, he has even been told that this person might be his ancestor.
That's impossible, of course...
Our ancestors died long ago while saving people.
Even if he hadn't died, fifty years have passed; it's impossible for him to still look like he did when he was young.
But one thing is certain: she is indeed a highly skilled doctor, so he listened to his grandfather and the doctor and searched for her everywhere.
At the time, Ye Baisu had only verbally stated her name, and he didn't know which "Bai" and which "Su" it was. Therefore, he searched many places but couldn't find the crazy woman.
He has finally found her.
Pei Wenyan's usually expressionless face suddenly revealed a hint of a smile.
"When will Miss Ye Baisu be returning?"
"She... doesn't know yet," Dong Suying stammered.
Ye Yixue said, "President Pei, what brings you to see my sister? We're curious too, wondering if she's gotten into some trouble..."
Dong Suying quickly chimed in, "Yes, that child is very playful, and I can't say when she'll be back. But if you need anything, you can tell us. If she did something wrong, we'll apologize to you first..."
"That's true," Ye Xiaofeng said. "She's from the countryside, so she might not know the proper etiquette. We also don't know when she'll be back. Tell us what you need to say, and we'll see if we can come up with a solution. There's nothing that communication can't solve, don't you think?"
She was so curious!
At the same time, I was also very conflicted.
She hoped that Bai Su had caused the trouble, but she was also afraid of being implicated by Bai Su.
On the other hand, she didn't want anything good to happen to her; she didn't want to see Bai Su smug.
While his mind was in turmoil, Pei Wenyan finally spoke, "It's something related to my grandfather, which is inconvenient to tell you. I can only tell you after I see Miss Bai Su. But you three can rest assured, Miss Bai Su didn't cause any trouble. I'm not here to ask her to apologize. On the contrary, if we're really talking about it, I'll be the one apologizing to Miss Bai Su."
The three of them were stunned for a moment.
However, their complexions were all different.
Ye Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief.
Dong Suying breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt extremely embarrassed and curious.
Ye Yixue, however, was in a very bad mood.
If it's not a bad thing, then it must be a good thing, right?
She found that she would rather something bad happen than something good happen, and she would rather be implicated...
"Well... I'll have to trouble you all to rest." Pei Wenyan said, giving a look behind him.
His men immediately presented him with a generous gift.
It's a jewelry box that looks very expensive just by looking at the packaging.
"This is a gift for Mrs. Ye. Please don't find it offensive."
Dong Suying's eyes lit up as soon as she saw the logo on the packaging.
"Of course, of course I wouldn't mind..."
"Then we'll wait here. You all can go about your business first, don't worry about us," Pei Wenyan said.
Upon hearing this, the Ye couple became uncomfortable.
Bai Su will never come back!
They've kicked her out of the house!
Ye Xiaofeng glared at Dong Suying.
It was her idea to have Bai Su move out.
Dong Suying felt very wronged.
Didn't her husband agree at the time?
He was furious because he felt that Bai Su had offended the Xu Group and caused the opportunity to slip away again.
After a while, Ye Xiaofeng finally couldn't sit still any longer.
He pretended that someone was calling and took the phone to answer it.
A moment later, he returned and said, "Mr. Pei, it's like this... Bai Su attends No. 3 Middle School, which is about a half-hour drive from here. We felt it was too much trouble for her to commute to and from school, so we arranged a small apartment for her outside. If she doesn't want to get up early one day, she can stay in the apartment and sleep in a little longer before going to school the next day. She just called to say she's staying there tonight and won't be coming back. Perhaps you could... (come) another day?"
Before he could even utter the word "come," Pei Wenyan had already stood up.
"In that case, I won't bother you any longer."
Ye Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could exhale, Pei Wenyan spoke again: "Could you please give me an address? I'll go directly there to find Miss Bai Su."
"This, this..." Ye Xiaofeng was stunned.
What on earth happened that's causing such a rush?
Dong Suying reacted faster, saying, "Let's go with you..."
"No need to trouble yourself," Pei Wenyan said calmly. "This concerns my family's private affairs. You two would have to avoid me if you went. I'll go myself. Don't worry, I won't go inside. I'll talk to Miss Bai Su at the door."
That's not what we meant...
They didn't feel that Pei Wen's banquet offended Bai Su.
Even if Pei Wenyan's identity was "offensive," it was still Bai Su's good fortune.
They were just too curious...
Since Pei Wenyan said that, they couldn't say anything more and had no choice but to give him the address.
Having obtained the address, Pei Wenyan immediately led his men away.
He found the couple somewhat strange.
It's strange in a way that's hard to explain.
However, considering that this is a blended family, I can understand some of it.
It seems that the crazy woman... that goddess doctor isn't having a good time.
Saying they live in an apartment outside means they've probably been kicked out of their home.
So that's why she wanted to use the Pei family and her medical skills to live a better life, right?
Pei Wenyan understood why Bai Su was so proactive, even risking falling from the building to climb through the window to treat the old man.
She is a woman with a strong sense of purpose.
Even if he manages to get her, he still needs to be wary of her.
Just as they stepped out of the Ye family home, another daughter of the Ye family caught up with them.
"Mr. Pei! Please wait!"
Pei Wenyan slowly turned his head and met Ye Yixue's eyes, a hint of impatience flashing between his brows.
"Is there anything else, Miss Ye?"
"Mr. Pei, actually I went to that small apartment to visit my sister last night, but she wasn't there... I happen to have dinner with her tonight, and from what she said, it seems she doesn't live there often, and she might have another place to stay. So if no one is home, my sister might be staying somewhere else."
Ye Yixue did not miss the impatience in Pei Wenyan's eyes.
Her initial shyness had completely disappeared, and now she was very calm.
She admitted that Bai Su was lucky to have gotten involved with someone like Pei Wenyan.
Getting on board is one thing, but whether you can go far is another.
She knew what men cared about most.
He cares most about a girl's innocence.
That's why she said those words.
Would someone like Pei Wenyan still like a girl who doesn't go home one night and has other "homes" outside?
Impossible.
Sure enough, Pei Wenyan frowned as soon as she finished speaking: "Does Miss Ye have the address of the other place she lives in?"
"I don't know that, but you can wait for her at the entrance of No. 3 Middle School tomorrow morning. She usually arrives at school around seven o'clock."
Ye Yixue smiled broadly. Having achieved her goal, she didn't linger any longer, said "Take care" and went back.
If Bai Su makes her uncomfortable, she won't make Bai Su comfortable either.
She doesn't even consider who Pei Wenyan is; how dare she two-time him?
They won't even know how they died!
Ye Yixue sneered.
Back in the living room, the couple began discussing whether or not to bring Bai Su back.
"If she can really marry into the Pei family, it will be her good fortune," Ye Yixue said when she heard Ye Xiaofeng say this.
She sneered inwardly again.
This is absolutely impossible.
However, she couldn't let Bai Su come back like that.
Now that she's back, Bai Su probably won't be able to leave so easily.
So she said, "Dad, Mom, I just saw President Pei off, and he didn't look too good. Should we wait until tomorrow and call my sister over to ask what happened?"
The two of them suddenly understood.
Yes, we still don't know what Pei Wenyan wanted with Bai Su, or whether he has taken a liking to her.
If it's just a minor matter, they shouldn't bring the person back yet.
The couple temporarily abandoned their plan to bring Bai Su back immediately.
Ye Xiaofeng said, "Tomorrow after school, go to the school gate to pick her up, tell her to come back for dinner, and buy her a cell phone. Without a cell phone, we can't contact her if something happens."
"I understand..." Dong Suying replied.
And outside the door...
