Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The next day, they met on the prairie 40 kilometers away from the capital Moon stopped beside her. Its front paws dug the ground, and it snorted in contentment.
After sweating, its entire body was glowing with light.
Every time Pei Hilai came here. Sli Ti would bring him to admire the scenery of
the Great Shang and some rare beasts that had gone extinct.
This was a wonderful experience that the rich could not buy no matter how much money they spent, but Pei Huai’s attention was completely not on these things.
Pei Huai retracted his gaze from Moon and looked at Su Ji. What do you think about this?”
“I think..” Su Ji said bluntly,” I don’t think so.”
He had no intention of joking with her.
However, Su Ji was not joking with him.
After she transmigrated, she took over the original owner’s body. At first, she just wanted to avenge her and help her establish herself in the entertainment industry. Who knew…
Looking at Su Ji’s seemingly calm attitude, Pei Huai’s lips gradually tightened, and the color in his eyes deepened little by little.
When Su Ji realized it, she explained, “actually, what I meant was…”
“Su Ji.” He suddenly interrupted, his voice low and clear, “whether you stay in the Great Shang or go back with me, it doesn’t matter to you, right?”
As he finished his sentence, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
“No.” Su Ji was stunned and laughed in anger. “What are you talking about?”
Pei Huai pursed his thin lips and did not say anything else.
Both of them were in a bad mood.
Su Ji was impatient to begin with, and now that she was provoked, she was annoyed.
“I’m asking you a question, Pei Huai! What did you mean?!” Su Ji’s voice became louder.
If she was a furry little animal, her fur would have stood up.
The little guy in her stomach made her emotional.
At that moment, in Pei Huai’s eyes, his girlfriend looked like his future mother-in-law.
“I…” Pei Huai stood where he was. A few seconds later, he said piously and calmly, “sorry.”
As the third master of the Pei family, in the first 30 years of his life, he had never lowered his head to anyone, including his university professors and his grandfather.
However, it was not the first time he had apologized since he was thirty.
However, as long as he could make up for his mistake, none of this mattered.
This trick worked on Su Ji, but not much.
“What can I do if she doesn’t agree?” Su Ji’s mood only dropped by a degree.
Could it be that just because she had existed in this world first, she had to force the original owner to swap with her?
She didn’t know what to do either!
However, as she was getting more and more annoyed, she kicked away a large rock that was half-embedded in the ground. A nest of ants was instantly covered and they were scurrying around. She saw a small pink petal and a white morning glory and she suddenly remembered something…
“A pig’s snout?” Su Ji muttered to herself.
Pei Huai looked over and narrowed her eyes. His tone was filled with worry. “Su
Ji, that’s a morning glory.”
“If I say it’s a pig’s snout, it’s a pig’s snout.” Su Ji nodded calmly, her mood improving. “We can try something. Although it might not be effective, it’s better than nothing.”
Pei Huai frowned and said in a serious tone, “just say it. I’ll be responsible for it.”
Su Ji looked at him and slowly smiled.
She told Pei Huai about Musician Xiao.
More importantly, Musician Xiao had been waiting for the original owner to return.
Pei Huai then thought of Xiao Ken, who had mysteriously appeared at the airport to pick them up on the day they returned from the Z-Sea.
So that was the case…
“That’s one reason, but,” Pei Huai said, “she won’t believe me.”
Su Ji had thought of this as well. “Tell her about the morning glory embroidery pattern. It was embroidered by her, and it was picked up by Musician Xiao to be used as a pendant for the jade flute. He would secretly keep something that belonged to the Consort Dowager. It’s already very obvious that he likes it. Besides, if what we said was not true, we wouldn’t have known that it looked like a pig’s snout.”
She spoke methodically, but Pei Huai still shook his head. He was very rational. “She will think that you accidentally picked it up and then made up the story.”
This was not enough?
How much did she not trust them?
Su Ji had never met the original owner and only knew that she was a little girl who was submissive.
“Is she that bad?” Su Ji did not quite believe it. After all, it was her original body. Even if it was just a bug, it was connected to her.
Don’t embarrass her!
Pei Huai’s reply to her question was a cold “ha”.
At least she had the same face as her and could make Pei Huai speechless.
Previously, when she had a premonition that she might not be able to stay in the modern world for long, she had even thought about whether the original owner could replace her and be with Pei Huai instead.
Even though that thought only flashed by for a moment.
Su Ji had the memories of her original owner. Although she was like a punching bag that often made people angry, she could guarantee that she had never done anything bad, nor did she have the slightest intention of harming others.
Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be.
Moreover, she had already cleaned up most of the people who were in her way. After the original owner returned, she could just enjoy herself. Why did this suddenly happen?
Did she get carried away?
Su Ji rubbed her chin. At first, she did not understand, but after a moment, she looked up at Pei Huai. “How did you treat her? How did you tell her after you found out that she wasn’t me? You weren’t very fierce to her, were you?” “No.” Pei Huai was very sure, so Su Ji felt more at ease.
However, she did not feel relieved for a second before she heard him say, “because I don’t talk to her at all.”
Su Ji narrowed her eyes.
“What about my mother?” She asked again, “how did my mother treat her?”
Pei Huai said, “a few days ago, Madam Xu made dumplings for her. They were stuffed with mutton. She put in a lot of effort.”
This time, Su Ji did not relax. After she finished speaking and paused for a second, she asked, “and then?”
Pei Huai’s tone was as usual. “Madam Xu said that it was to thank her for being willing to swap bodies with you.”
This was clearly a trap!
The corners of her beautiful mouth twitched fiercely as she slapped her own forehead.
It was loud.
Pei Huai stepped forward almost instantly and grabbed her wrist. “Don’t hit yourself.”
If he allocated one tenth of his care to the original owner, she would not have been so resistant to them.
“If I can’t go back,” Su Ji said, “you and my mother take full responsibility.”
Pei Huai’s expression was very serious. “…”
“What do you want me to do?”
