Chapter 1095: Chapter 1095: He Is the One at Fault
But after a slight pause, she quickly became excited again: "Otherwise, I’ll tell Dad that I’m going to study in country S. That way, we can see each other often."
Pei Yuanchen snorted, "Your dad definitely won’t agree to that."
"Why not?" Ziyi disagreed, "Dad dotes on me; he’ll definitely agree."
"If you want to go to another country, he probably wouldn’t object. But if it’s country S... it’s obvious you’re going for me, so of course he wouldn’t agree." Pei Yuanchen’s tone was somewhat indifferent, "If I had a daughter, I wouldn’t be happy to see her chasing after a man shamelessly either."
"How am I being shameless!" Ziyi was quite dissatisfied, "I just like you, is that wrong?"
Pei Yuanchen felt a warmth in his chest.
He looked down at her.
Under the moonlight, the woman’s face was still pale white, appearing transparent and unreal.
Like a fairy tale witch who would vanish with the first light of dawn.
He spoke, his voice deep and hoarse: "No, you’re not wrong."
The one who is wrong is him.
Wrong for being just Pei Yuanchen.
Wrong because the past could jump out and deliver a fatal blow at any time.
Wrong for not being worthy of having her yet.
"Then..." Ziyi considered for a moment, "Can’t you stay in Yanzhou City and not leave? Whatever you want to do, I can help you."
Pei Yuanchen’s Adam’s apple bobbed.
He put away those untimely emotions and snorted lightly, "How do you plan to help me, Miss He?"
"I can help you achieve your dreams!" Ziyi thought seriously, "I can ask my brother and sister-in-law. They will definitely help you."
"You still rely on others at the end of the day." Pei Yuanchen couldn’t help but tease her, "And you, Miss He?"
Ziyi puffed her cheeks, a bit unhappy.
"I have money too, Mom said she saved a lot of money for me." Ziyi said, "Most of it, I earned myself. My works can be sold at high prices."
Pei Yuanchen chuckled again.
"He Ziyi, don’t tell the man you like things like that in the future." The man’s voice seemed to be tinged with the mist of the night, appearing somewhat damp, "The man who likes you will only blame himself, and the man who doesn’t, might take you for a fool to deceive."
He added, "Besides, I don’t need your money."
In terms of wealth, he might not match the He Family, but he was definitely not inferior to most men.
But what Miss He lacked least was money.
He chuckled lightly in his heart.
"Why do you always compare yourself to other men?" Ziyi was very upset, "I wouldn’t say this to other men anyway, as long as you’re not angry, it’s fine."
Pei Yuanchen didn’t speak.
Because he saw a rather graceful figure not far away; that upright posture was clearly professional.
It was likely He Ziyi’s female bodyguard, Ayuan.
Sure enough, soon the figure approached and spoke respectfully, "Miss."
"Ah!" Ziyi responded, "Ayuan, you’re still here!"
Pei Yuanchen put her down on the ground, "Go get in the car."
Ziyi reluctantly held onto his sleeve, "Uncle Xiaobao, can I see you tomorrow? I... I don’t have many classes tomorrow. Can I call you when I’m done?"
Her voice was soft, with a hint of pleading.
Pei Yuanchen’s rare gentle and patient demeanor made her feel a bit uneasy.
