Chapter 14
"She ran away because she was afraid of me getting entangled. As for why I couldn't get along with the cat, it was of course because Xi Yanchen went too far yesterday. When so many of you slapped me in front of me and made it difficult for me to get off the stage many times, how could I swallow this breath?
?”
Having said this, he looked around and sneered perversely, "Hey, he didn't come. What a pity that I couldn't see him in pain!"
This speech shocked and disappointed Pei Yue.
Xi Xiao himself also keeps pets. He has a golden retriever.
Pei Yue's emotions finally broke through, and tears welled up in her eyes, "Xi Xiao, no matter how conflicted you are, you can't hurt other people's pets. Don't you know how to compare your feelings with your own?"
If she just guessed that the old man had killed the cat, there was some truth to it, but the old man was Xi Yanchen's biological father after all, and no matter how ruthless he was, he would never use his pet to plot against her.
Now the motivation mentioned by Xi Xiao is more reasonable.
Xi Xiao ignored Pei Yue, his expression was indifferent and depressed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
The old man didn't expect Xi Xiao to disrupt his plan.
He was about to get angry, but he was stunned for a moment when he saw someone appearing at the door again.
Xi Yanchen walked in wearing plain black clothes and a cold face.
But he didn't move forward. He folded his arms and leaned against the door frame, looking at the people present with his cold eyes.
Even though he was the old man who had led the Xi family for decades, his eyes dodged.
No one spoke for a moment, and the atmosphere fell into an eerie silence.
But after a while, Xi Yanchen let out a chuckle.
Pei Yue turned around in shock when she heard the sound.
The man's black and depressing clothes made her heart ache.
Although she was away from him for six years before meeting him again, during the three years they were in the attached high school together, she never saw him wearing black from head to toe.
He must love his kitten very much.
Xi Yanchen looked at the old man and touched his cheek with his tongue. His chuckle seemed to contain the breath of blood, "Dad, I believe you will be able to give my pet a satisfactory explanation."
At this moment, Pei Yue felt excited and her heart beat wildly!
Xi Xiao didn't do this, this was the old man's plan to expel her!
Otherwise, why would the man who was sitting next to the old man yesterday stand so far away today?
Pei Yue no longer knew how to describe her mood at the moment. She still couldn't believe that the old man would be so cruel to Xi Yanchen.
And Xi Xiao, why are you taking this responsibility for her?
Doesn't he hate her, hate her, and wish she would be beaten to death?
She fell into an extremely entangled state, and Xi Xiao also said something, "Aren't we going to start a family law? Just do what Xi Yanchen said yesterday and beat me eighty, and this matter will be over."
"You can't do it!" Ling Mei screamed, "Dad, the eighty-year-old's skin will be torn to pieces and Xiao'er will be crippled!"
The old man sighed, as if he felt a little embarrassed.
When he is old, no matter how many calculations he makes, he cannot use them all on his sons. After all, they still need to maintain this prosperous family business.
But his sons will also want him to hand over all his power quickly because he is old.
But he couldn't hand it over yet. He knew how fierce his sons were in secret fighting. He couldn't trust anyone until the last moment.
But if he makes any obvious mistakes, he will definitely be caught and forced to give up his position completely on the grounds that "my father is old and confused and should no longer be in charge of family affairs."
Now that Xi Xiao has produced evidence himself, if he still holds on to Pei Yue, his best son Xi Yanchen will probably force him to hand over power today.
In this way, the old man glared at Xi Xiao with disgust and said: "Chen'er, I didn't expect Xiao'er to do such a heinous thing, and I almost blamed Pei Yue..."
Xi Yanchen didn't say anything. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, took one out and lit it.
The old man raised his hand, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Then, teach Xi Xiao his family skills!"
Later, when Ling Mei pleaded for her son, Xi Xiao took off his half-sleeved shirt without hesitation, revealing his thin but tight back.
A few seconds later, there was a thrilling "pop-" sound.
The most shocked person was Pei Yue who was next to Xi Xiao. She watched helplessly as a long dark red mark appeared on Xi Xiao's smooth back, and it quickly became engorged with blood!
Then several more whips were struck one after another, and Xi Xiao's face began to turn white and his back began to bleed.
Pei Yue's chest felt incredibly suffocated.
In terms of her hatred for Dafang's family, she actually hates Xi Xiao the least.
If it hadn't been for the car accident, Xi Xiao might not have become like this. Even in the past nine years, no matter what Xi Xiao wanted to do, Ling Mei and Xi Yankun would have restricted him in the name of love, making his emotions worse and worse.
The more twisted it is.
She can understand Xi Xiao, but she will never sympathize with him because of it.
If she sympathizes with Xi Xiao, then who sympathizes with her who was bullied by Xi Xiao to the point of infertility?
She shouldn't have to suffer other people's suffering.
But now, Xi Xiao was also an innocent person, but he was whipped because of her.
What's more, this punishment was because the old man suspected her and Xi Yanchen, so now she has a way to resolve it.
When the tenth whip was about to be struck, Pei Yue shouted "No", then gritted her teeth and threw herself on Xi Xiao's back.
The whip fell hard on her back.
It really hurts.
It hurt so much that she subconsciously felt sour in her stomach.
This scene once again shocked everyone. Xi Yanchen was stunned for a second, then took steps towards her.
Xi Xiao's pupils were shaking, he turned over in embarrassment, and while protecting her, he yelled: "What the hell are you doing!"
"Axiao," Pei Yue's watery eyes shed tears again, "How could I let you get hurt..."
She and Xi Xiao have known each other for nine years. Even though they dislike each other privately, no one knows.
Now that she has sacrificed herself to Xi Xiao and used such a cruel trick to make everyone think that she likes Xi Xiao very much, then who will easily doubt her and Xi Yanchen?
Her behavior shocked even Ling Mei. Some of the girls who had come to watch the excitement early could not help but sigh, "Sister Pei Yue loves brother Xiao so much!"
After all, they, these pampered ladies with their status and background, all feel that it is impossible for them to do this for a man, which will only highlight Pei Yue's passionate love for Xi Xiao.
When another whip was swung at Pei Yue's angle, Xi Xiao's pupils dilated and he put his arms on Pei Yue's back, and they both closed their eyes in tacit agreement, waiting for the punishment to continue to come.
But this time the whip did not hit either of them.
I saw Xi Yanchen coming over to block the whip that was coming down again with his arm. Then he grabbed the whip with his backhand and pulled it away from the bodyguard.
He looked at Pei Yue, who was being protected by Xi Xiao, and chuckled, "I suddenly changed my mind."
Pei Yue and others set their sights on Xi Yanchen.
The corners of the man's lips were curled up, but his eyes were world-weary, cold, and gloomy.
This expression made her feel that the teacher Xi who was cold and stern but decent and restrained in her memory, and the president Xi who flirted with her so much the night before, were no longer real.
Right now, Xi Yanchen looked like...a sick monster crawling out from the bottom of the abyss.
