CHAPTER 1231: CHAPTER 242: THE NOBLEMAN, LIKE UNCUT JADE (PART 8)

A large step left the Pei Family, the slender, clear silhouette gradually faded into the night.

Pei Yu’s tears flowed freely: "Is he still blaming me?"

Pei Ying sighed: "This child had a tough childhood, it’s normal for him to harbor resentment. It’s just lamentable how fate plays tricks, elder sister-in-law went too far back then..."

"You need to take care of your health, don’t overthink it. You’ll have plenty of time to make up for it. You’re his biological father, blood is thicker than water. Sooner or later, he’ll understand that you are the closest to him in this world."

Pei Ying’s words gave him a glimmer of hope to cheer up.

Leaving the Pei Family, Pei Xinyi said softly: "My cousin... he seems not simple."

Pei Ying glanced at her with a smile: "Regretting marrying too soon? After all, you were the Pei Family’s trained child bride."

Pei Xinyi hurriedly lowered her head: "Mom, you’re joking."

Pei Ying scoffed: "Even if you weren’t married, it wouldn’t be your turn."

Pei Xinyi bit her lip and said nothing, helping her into the car.

She knew that her background was insignificant in both the Pei Family and the Yan Family. She would have to carry the child bride identity for a lifetime, otherwise back then...

Thinking of this, a sharp pain stabbed her heart, and her fingernails dug deeply into her palm.

That day, Yun Ya was reading a book when Yan Xing came bouncing in: "Sister Yun Ya, what are you doing?"

This little girl came here every day, couldn’t be chased away, Yun Ya had gotten used to it.

Yun Ya put the book down with a smile, Yan Xing looked at the English title with a headache, pulling Yun Ya to gossip: "Let me tell you, the day after tomorrow is Fangyuan Society’s Spring Opening, you might not be familiar with this. Let me explain it to you."

Less ten thousand words...

Yun Ya listened with interest, casually poured a cup of tea and handed it to Yan Xing, who gulped it down in one go, rudely wiped her mouth after putting down the cup: "Let me tell you... hic... the invitation for this Spring Opening should have been sent to you. At that time, Song Jinwen will definitely trouble us, but I’m not afraid of her. The only worrying thing is that I don’t have any presentable talent. If I had learned the piano when my mom forced me, I wouldn’t be mocked by Song Jinwen now. Sister Yun Ya, you’re so smart, it seems like you can do anything, I’m counting on you to vent my anger that day."

Yun Ya sighed with a smile, feeling quite pressured.

"Also, I heard from my mom that second aunt and second uncle came back today, to visit grandpa. Second aunt loves me the most, she’ll surely bring lots of gifts, let’s go to grandpa’s place and wait for the gifts, hehe."

Second aunt? Must be Yan Zi from the fourth branch, heard she married the young master of the Jiang Family, Jiang Hanbi’s brother.

Before Yun Ya could react, Yan Xing pulled her out the door, "Miss Xing, slow down, my lady didn’t wear a coat." Ah Yun chased after them with the coat.

"You’re so delicate, look at me, I’m not afraid of the cold." Yan Xing muttered nastily, little cheeks flushed red from the cold, smiling with lively energy.

Ah Yun draped a fur coat over Yun Ya, especially warm and windproof, rolled her eyes at the comment: "Of course, our lady can’t be compared to you, our lady is a Southerner, can’t stand the Northern chill."

Yan Xing couldn’t care less, talked all the way about how her second aunt loved her when she was little: "She went abroad after getting married, gone for so many years. Let me count, I was only five or six then, she’s been gone for about ten years now..."

"Second aunt has a fiery personality, often took me to fight when I was little, made my mom furious ha..."

"I don’t have much impression of second uncle, remember he’s a teacher, very handsome, friendly, used to pat my head often, saying he’d buy me candy..."

Chattering away, they suffered the quickly arriving Pei Ying and Pei Xinyi at the Rongju Garden entrance.

The two greeted, walked inside together, Pei Ying’s steps were somewhat eager, clearly missing her daughter.

Yun Ya noticed, Pei Xinyi’s face was a bit pale, didn’t seem very spirited.

Stepping into the main hall, Yun Ya saw a familiar figure standing in the center, hearing footsteps they turned their head, upon seeing the face, Yun Ya felt a slight shock.

It was him...
