Chapter 789: I Disagree
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Pei Huai would also tell her about the ritual of bringing her back to prevent any mishaps from happening.
Whether it was life or work, Pei Huai would do anything to make her happy.
He never asked her to do anything, and he never spoke to her with a serious expression.
However, Pei Huai could not joke about the ritual that could bring her back.
He would repeatedly test her on all the details of that day.
If Su Ji missed something, his expression would turn serious.
Su Ji wondered if Pei Huai would be so serious when he tutored their child.
If that was the case, the little fellow’s days would not be easy.
However…it was actually unknown whether they would be able to have this child…
“Su Ji.”
When he called her by her name, his tone was rather oppressive.
Su Ji collected her thoughts and turned to look at him.
Pei Huai said, “be serious. You only have one chance. This is not a joke.”
Su Ji did not go against him this time and nodded cooperatively.
Of course, she knew that this was very important.
However, because it was too important, Su Ji was afraid that it would not work
out…
As Pei Huai and Su Ji met more and more systematically, the places where the two of them met were no longer limited to the hall of Prince Huai’s residence or the Consort Dowager’s residence.
Every time Prince Huai woke up, the scenes he saw became more and more unbelievable.
When he first woke up, he was in his own bath hall with the Consort Dowager walking beside him. Although the two of them were dressed neatly, the
location…
That time, Pei Huai wanted to visit the old place again. He had the dream when he first met Su Ji. In the dream, Su Ji had accidentally barged into his bathing hall. The scene was blurry and he could not see the whole picture, so he wanted to visit the place again. Su Ji helped him realize his dream. The two of them were visiting Prince Huai hall without Prince Huai knowing!
The second time Prince Huai woke up, he was on horseback with Su Ji.
The third time was in a lively market. This time, the location was considered normal, but on his head…were two hairpins!
The peddler was smiling.
The passersby looked back.
Su Ji was choosing a hairpin, but a bronze mirror was rare at that time. The peddler obviously did not have one. She could not see what she looked like when she put it on, so she put it on his head.
Pei Huai spoiled her very much and would never refuse such a request.
Moreover, this was not his body.
Prince Huai: ‘
Bian Tong was in charge of calculating the auspicious day and time.
Three days later would be the last time. Although the time was a little rushed, the treasures had been prepared. As long as the parties involved were present, it was a good idea to do it quickly.
However, when they gathered together to discuss and Bian Tong suggested a time, the original owner gave a different opinion…
On this day, Bian Tong and Pei Huai came to the Xu family.
On the sofa in the living room, Xu Mingzhi and the original owner were sitting on one side. Bian Tong was opposite them, while Pei Huai was sitting on a single sofa diagonally opposite them.
When they found out that he had found the time, Xu Mingzhi was excited.
Bian Tong explained Pei Huai’s arrangements clearly, but the original owner, who had been docile and quiet, laughed. “Even the process is planned?” As she spoke, her voice rose, and Xu Mingzhi’s gaze fell on her.
The original owner smiled faintly. “Lawyer Bian, are you here to discuss with me or to inform me?”
Bian Tong sighed tactically. “Of course…it’s to discuss it with you…”
“That’s good.” The original owner was calm and relaxed. “It’s good that we can discuss it.”
Bian Tong revealed a fake professional smile. “Then I wonder what Ms. Su have in mind…?”
The original owner replied firmly, “I don’t agree.” Pei Huai slowly looked up.
Xu Mingzhi also looked at her. “What do you mean?”
Her tone was not very nice. The original owner pursed her lips, but she quickly regained her smile. She held Xu Mingzhi’s arm and acted coquettishly like before. “Mom, don’t misunderstand. It’s not that I don’t want to switch back with her, it’s just that…if I go back this time, I won’t be able to come back in the future. I still want to go back to see dad and grandma, and then go back to my old school to take a look. Lawyer Bian just said that auspicious days and auspicious times aren’t the only ones. Even if I miss this one, there will be another one in a few days…”
As she spoke, she gradually slowed down her voice and looked pitiful. “Mom, I still want to stay with you for two more days. Ever since I was young, you’ve never been by my side. Now that I finally have the chance, can you grant my request?”
Xu Mingzhi felt as if a fishbone was stuck in her throat. Her expression gradually turned cold as she looked at her.
However, the original owner still maintained an extremely sincere expression.
She knew that her poor acting skills could not fool her mother.
But she didn’t care.
Ever since she found out that her mother was only good to her so that she could get the Consort Dowager back as soon as possible, she had been completely disappointed in this so-called kinship.
From now until she returned to the Great Shang, these people had to listen to whatever she said. Everyone had to revolve around her. Everything had to be based on her needs. No one could think about ignoring her again!
This time, she was completely confident.
First, all of her requests were reasonable. If they wanted the Consort Dowager to come back, they couldn’t be completely impolite.
Secondly, she was now a rather important part of this ritual. If these people still wanted to successfully exchange her for the Consort Dowager, then no one should provoke her.
When the Consort Dowager would return was entirely up to her mood!
The negotiation was rejected by the original owner.
Bian Tong came in high spirits, but when he left, he was extremely depressed.
He knew this would happen.
Not only had he guessed it long ago, but Pei Huai must have guessed it as well.
He had sneaked a glance at Pei Huai’s expression just now.
He did not say a word throughout the negotiation. His face was extremely gloomy, and his eyes were fierce.
She actually dared to provoke Pei Huai.
Although she had Pei Huai’s weakness in this matter, and he could not do anything to her for the time being, but…wasn’t she afraid that the tables would turn in the future?
After the negotiation ended, the original owner got up and went back to the room saying that she was not feeling well.
Xu Mingzhi sent them out.
Bian Tong’s car arrived and he elft.
Xu Mingzhi looked at Pei Huai.
Pei Huai took the car and sat in the driver’s seat.
Xu Mingzhi knocked on the car window.
The window was lowered. Her tone was ruthless. “I think she doesn’t want to go back at all. If not, let Lawyer Bian choose a place first. When the time comes, we’ll kidnap her.”
“Don’t act rashly yet.” Pei Huai’s tone was cold.
Xu Mingzhi knew that she was just saying it out of anger. “What do we do now?”
Pei Huai’s hand on the steering wheel slowly tapped twice. “Tomorrow is the day I have a meeting with Su Ji.. Let’s talk about it after we meet…’
