Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Pei Yu quickly held on to his mother. At the same time, he said to Li Ze unhappily, “Don’t think that you can be this arrogant just because this is Haicheng. My mother is still older than you. How can you criticize an elderly in public like this? Who taught you how to speak like that?”
Li Ze sneered. “You of all people should know that this is a public place. If you came here to deal with private matters in a public place, why not go all out? Hypocrite much.”
Jiang Yan also smiled. “Indeed, my fiance, Li Ze, had many lovers, but when I deal with these lovers, 1 never deal with them in public. It’s normal for men to play around before marriage. You should know this very well Mrs. Pei. After all, your future in-law also relied on his mother being a mistress to get to where they are today.”
Mrs. Pei was so angry that her body trembled.
She was very satisfied with Lu Li.
However, Lu Li’s mother, Zhou Jing, did rise to power as a mistress. This was an indelible fact.
Now, Jiang Yan was using this information to humiliate her in public.
However, she could not say anything to refute them.
Pei Xin finally reacted when she realized that these two people were standing up for her.
She looked at Pei Yu and thought of the changes she had undergone over the years.
She had had enough of everything.
Pei Xin took the initiative to step out from behind Jiang Yan and looked straight at Mrs. Pei.
Pei Xin first bowed to Mrs. Pei. Then she said solemnly.
“The Pei family did raise me for more than ten years, but I was framed and imprisoned. My son was beaten up by Lu Li and his men. My brother’s work was ruined by the Pei family. You even permanently injured his leg.
“After knowing my identity, you tortured me countless times. My studies were also interrupted because of this. I was laughed at by all the nobles in the capital.
“I was beaten up every day in prison. After I was released from prison, you all schemed to put me through surgery to steal my kidney. You knew that if I donated my kidney, 1 would die, but you still insisted on proceeding with the surgery.
“The Pei family’s kindness has long been worn away by all this scheming. From now on, I no longer owe the Pei family anything.”
When Mr. Pei heard her words, he snorted coldly. “The Pei family has given you a good life for more than ten years. You’ve only suffered for a few years, how dare you say such a thing? Our kindness to you can never be repaid.
“If Ling Xue had been by our side since she was young, she wouldn’t have become so weak. Where else would she get a kidney if not from you? All of this is the doing of your vicious mother. “As her daughter, you should bear this sin on her behalf!”
Pei Xin looked straight ahead.
“Mr. Pei, I’ll say it in front of everyone.
“When Ling Xue was just brought back, you didn’t actually think of giving up on me.
“I was engaged to Lu Li and he was determined to marry me. You didn’t want to let the marriage go to waste. You wanted to use me as a bargaining chip for the marriage that was going to happen.
“It wasn’t until later that I was framed, did you act on it. You gave up on me as a pawn. After that, you hated me and attacked me. That was only when you started to treat Ling Xue well.
“There’s no such thing as kinship to you. Your so-called daughters are just a tool for you to benefit your interest. You’ll dote on whichever daughter is more valuable to you.”
Pei Xin had hit the nail on the head, and Mr. Pei’s face turned cold.
He raised his arm and was about to slap Pei Xin. However, he was stopped by Li Ze.
Li Ze flung his hand away. “It seems that this is the upbringing of the Pei family. You hit people at the drop of a hat. You make fun of wealthy families, but I think you’re no different from local ruffians!”
Everyone else quietly stood and watched the scene unfold. Some of them were even secretly taking out their phones to record this scene.
The atmosphere on both sides was tense, and neither side was willing to take a step back.
It wasn’t until Lu Huai walked over.
“The auction today is really lively. I wonder if there’s space for me to participate.”
Lu Huai’s arrival attracted the Pei family’s attention.
Pei Yu’s pupils shrank.
Why was Lu Huai in Haicheng?
Mr. Pei was confident that he could deal with Li Ze. However, in front of Lu Huai, Mr. Pei’s attitude was much more restrained..
