Chapter 271 Puppy Explosion
Chapter 271 Puppy Explosion
Pei Jin groaned again, tears welling up in his eyes due to the pain.
He shuddered and took a breath.
Under Bai Yuan's deliberate coercion, he shouted humiliatingly and stubbornly:
"So what!!!!"
Although he didn't struggle or quibble, he still refused to admit defeat.
Even if I admit defeat, I feel justified in doing so.
After getting the answer, Bai Yuan did not stop there.
Instead, he continued to ask questions:
"Why do you do this?"
While asking, Bai Yuan was thinking about what Pei Jin had said at the school gate a few days ago. The stick figure with a heart pierced by an arrow drawn on the note he threw to him during class was not a threat or intimidation.
But it was his way of showing goodwill to himself.
I remembered the question I asked myself once before.
Although Pei Jin did not give a direct answer, he did not deny it either, but instead expressed his vague attitude of acquiescence.
Bai Yuan asked again: "Do you like me?"
Hearing these straightforward words.
The fire in Pei Jin's heart suddenly ignited.
The boy seemed like a trapped beast forced into a desperate situation.
In the endless shame and despair, he was forced into a corner and on the brink of collapse.
It's social death anyway!!!
Pei Jin used up his last bit of strength to fight back.
With the momentum that seemed to want to die together with Bai Yuan.
He roared in reluctance and humiliation:
"if not???"
Although Bai Yuan got the answer acknowledged by Pei Jin himself, he still didn't feel satisfied.
Not only did he not rush to release his grip, but he took advantage of the momentum and struck while the iron was hot, rigorously verifying the facts and continuing to dig deeper:
"So the reason you hid in the car and spied on me every time after school these past few days was because you liked me?"
Pei Jin felt so burned by the word "like".
Although he knew this matter at the time, he couldn't hide it from Bai Yuan.
But now he was dragged out again and executed again.
It still made him so embarrassed that he couldn't control himself.
Although I wanted to defend myself, I was unable to do so.
At this point, Pei Jin simply gave up his desperate struggle and said:
"if not???"
Bai Yuan asked again: "Let me report the Pei family's name..."
Pei Jin didn't give her a chance to say those two words, and answered: "What else???"
Bai Yuan: "Ask my aunt to help me deal with the kidnappers that day—"
Pei Jin: "What else???"
"The basketball court is also——"
"What if it's not?!!!!"
He listened to Bai Yuan telling him everything he had done, including those things that he thought he had hidden well.
Pei Jin's shame reached its peak and he collapsed:
"I like it! I like it! It's all because I like you!!!"
"I am playing hard to get! I want it but can't get it!!!"
"I did this just to get your attention!!!! To make you see me!!!! Notice me!!!! Think I'm different!!!! That's enough? Okay? You know everything, are you satisfied now!!!!!!!!!"
Pei Jin took this opportunity to vent all his pent-up emotions.
It was as if all the strength in his body had been drained away. He completely gave up resistance and half collapsed on the table.
His forehead hit the table with a thump.
The deep blue eyes were hollow and lifeless, without any focus due to being empty.
His lips trembled slightly and his chest rose and fell with his rapid, heavy breathing.
He was like a salted fish on a chopping board, waiting for the final judgment from Bai Yuan in humiliation and numbness.
After a long wait.
"……Ah."
Pei Jin heard a chuckle from someone behind him.
Laugh, laugh.
He thought desperately.
Anyway, it can't be more embarrassing than it is now. How much worse can it be?
Then, he heard Bai Yuan say slowly and with a hint of joking in his voice:
"'Even if I starve to death! I die outside! I jump off the building! I will never marry Miss Bai'. You said that, I remember correctly..."
Bai Yuan paused for a moment, then smiled and said:
"——Mr. Pei?"
Pei Jin: Oh shit!
Pei Jin: Aa ...
Pei Jin: Boomerang!!!
Pei Jin: It’s a boomerang!!!
Pei Jin: This world full of boomerangs!!!
Pei Jin: Why are there boomerangs everywhere? Eh ...
Pei Jin's brain was overloaded by Bai Yuan's attack, and he fell into a state of confusion, speaking incoherently:
"Who said they want to arrange a marriage??? Don't spit blood on me!!! I just said I like you, but liking someone doesn't mean we have to get married!!! I just like secret crushes, unrequited love, not... let's take a step back, do we have to get married if we like someone???"
Bai Yuan was like a follower of the crowd, and said slowly:
"You like me, but you don't want to marry me, but you want to be my boyfriend, so..."
She concluded: "You want to get it for free?"
Pei Jin: @%&*!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bai Yuan watched Pei Jin completely explode. He was first filled with shame and anger, and then looked as if he had lost all desire to live.
He slowly released the hand that was holding Pei Jin.
Waiting patiently for him to pick up the pieces of his broken self.
At the same time, Bai Yuan himself was also thinking and weighing this matter.
For a moment, the classroom, with only two people left, returned to the silence it should have after school. The only sound was the hands of the clock in front of the classroom ticking away.
Occasionally, there were Pei Jin's uncontrollable sobs and the sound of his neatly trimmed nails scratching the table.
After a long time, Bai Yuan estimated that no matter how much stimulation he had suffered or how socially desperate he was, he should have recovered enough.
He then spoke out the question that he had pondered, speculated, and considered over and over again:
"Pei Jin, before you are able to fight against your aunt, do you want to cooperate with me?"
Bai Yuan's formal yet gentle voice rang out in the classroom that had been silent for a long time.
Hearing this, Pei Jin raised his head from his stiff and sore arms and turned his head to the side. The expression on the boy's face was both confused and chaotic.
There were several creases on the flushed face from the sleeves of the school uniform, and there were also many dried water marks that might have been sweat or tears.
He sniffed and let out a shallow, confused sound.
"Ok?"
Bai Yuan continued, "To be honest with you, I do have plans to marry into the Pei family."
In fact, Bai Yuan has been thinking about the marriage for some time.
As early as when I first mentioned this matter to Qin Lingzheng.
Bai Yuan had already started to put this matter on his list, weighing the pros and cons of the marriage.
It was for this reason that, with sufficient preparation, she was able to have deeper consultations and discussions with Pei's mother on business interests and family interests with ease after meeting her.
In view of his observations and what he saw and heard in Haiqi during these days.
Through in-depth investigation of the kidnapping case, we can infer the missing clues, various foreboding clues, and unresolved doubts.
Bai Yuan could already foresee the undercurrents and bloody storms lurking beneath the surface of this prosperous city.
Similarly, she also anticipated that when she took over the huge Bai Group from her mother in the future, she would inevitably have to go through fierce fighting, competition and reshuffle.
By then, both inside and outside the Bai family, these forces that are still entrenched and have become crisscrossed and complicated will be like sharks smelling blood.
Look around early, lie in wait in secret, and wait for the right opportunity to act.
Wait for the prey to reveal a flaw, either actively or passively, and then swarm it.
He tried to tear off a big piece of meat, hoping to get a share of it.
Bai Yuan is not from Haiqi. Having lived in Beijing since childhood, she is not familiar with the city’s culture, economy, rules and market.
Even though he had done his homework before coming here, he not only analyzed the grudges and power divisions among the various families, but also had a grasp of the various families that were involved with the Bai family in many ways.
But this is just an understanding of some relatively superficial phenomena.
As for those deeper relationships, the intricate division of power between families, the grievances accumulated over the years, the gossip and major and minor events behind private relationships, they are not familiar.
Therefore, Bai Yuan really needs someone who knows the entire Haiqi well, knows all the intelligence, secrets, and has access to information, to be the initial guide and point her in the direction.
Help her to successfully clear all obstacles and difficulties ahead so that she can complete the inheritance of the Bai family more smoothly and easily.
This was also something that the Qin family, who also had roots in the capital, could not give her. It was one of the many reasons why she rejected Qin Lingzheng's marriage proposal.
This is also the reason why she chose to transfer to Haiqi while in high school, instead of waiting until she graduated from high school or after college to come to Haiqi.
She needs to take advantage of the three years of living in Haiqi to integrate into Haiqi's circle in advance and make better preparations.
To sum up, among the many families in Haiqi, there are many suitable people who can help Bai Yuan, but the Pei family, which divides the world into three parts, is indeed the best candidate.
Now, because Pei Jin has personally admitted that he likes her, she has another reason to choose Pei.
After all, although Bai Yuan cared about who the marriage partner was, it was impossible for him to just grab anyone and marry into his family.
You also have to do an investigation first, then observe for a period of time, and after repeated weighing and consideration, make sure that the other party's family and the person of the marriage are okay, before you can continue the discussion.
Now it seems that she has not only gained a preliminary understanding of Pei's situation and found some ways, but also has a certain contact and understanding with Pei Jin.
Judging from what happened these few times, Bai Yuan thought that he could easily control him and there should be no problem at all.
Compared to spending extra time and energy getting to know other people again, it would save time and effort for Pei Jin, who already has a certain foundation.
Moreover, in Bai Yuan's opinion, it would be best if the marriage partner had an emotional foundation with himself, which could save more unnecessary trouble and the cooperative relationship between families could continue more stably and for a longer period of time.
There is no reason for anyone to leave the good ones out there and instead look for someone that each other dislikes.
Having chaos every day will not only cause trouble for yourself, but also affect the quality and effect of the marriage.
What if the cooperation entered a critical period and the two people had a fierce conflict and broke up completely and went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce certificate, and then they parted ways and never contacted each other again.
Will this cooperation continue?
How much impact will the stock market have?
There are also external public opinion, word of mouth and other factors that must be taken into consideration.
Bai Yuan looked at Pei Jin in front of him.
After all, it was given to me for free, so why not use it?
Thinking of the word "send", Bai Yuan thought of Pei's mother's words, and his eyes darkened a little, like a bottomless pool of water, deep and dark.
Bai Yuan did not relax his vigilance against Pei's mother because of her active goodwill.
The other party's ambition was obvious. After seeing her eyes filled with desire for power and her unscrupulous behavior for the sake of profit, Bai Yuan couldn't possibly be unprepared for her.
While utilizing resources and assistance, Bai Yuan also has to consider Pei's mother's calculations and the possibility of backlash.
There are only interests, no friends in the business world, and cooperative relationships will also change due to changes in interests.
Bai Yuan is not so foolish as to be arrogant and conceited. She knows very well that the person who can hold a huge business empire in his hands is not simple.
Not to mention the other party's talent for business, the fact that Pei's mother has been in the business world for many years is something that Bai Yuan at this stage cannot compare to.
Whether in terms of experience or means, Pei's mother is definitely better.
If she had done anything, set any ambushes, or dug any traps in the process of helping Bai Yuan clear obstacles and inherit the Bai family, Bai Yuan didn't think he would be able to react immediately.
In this way, even if the other party wanted to undermine his power in the Bai family, it would be an easy task.
This foreseeable crisis will not only happen to Pei's mother, but is something she will have to worry about and face if she chooses to marry.
It is impossible to have the best of both worlds and have everything.
From this point of view, Pei Jin is the best key point for Bai Yuan to enter the Pei family.
Upon hearing that Bai Yuan really intended to form an alliance with the Pei family, Pei Jin's originally dull blue eyes gradually brightened up without him noticing, and were filled with the same dazzling light as usual.
As if he had received pardon, he looked at Bai Yuan with a look of expectation.
I feel a little happy, a little secretly delighted, and a little awkward, very twisted, and it's quite complicated...
From an objective point of view, Pei Jin's mentality can be described as wanting to welcome but also to reject.
It is very consistent with Pei Jin's usual mental state.
Pei Jin coughed lightly, trying to hide his guilt, and turned his head away with one hand covering his face, humming:
"You said that yourself. I didn't... I never said I wanted to marry you..."
"I know, and you don't have to worry." Bai Yuan said in a calm and rational voice, "So, what I want to tell you is - an agreed marriage."
