Chapter 229: He Arrived Early
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Everyone looked at Du Ze and Pei Li as if they were watching a good show. They did not expect Du Ze to have such a temper. His words were so merciless and did not give Pei Li any face at all.
However, he was holding a walking stick in his hand. Even if he did not give them any face, they would still understand. If it were any of them, they would probably do something even more intense than him. Such a young and outstanding young man was good at everything, yet he had a crippled leg. This was too much of a blow.
This was the most spirited time in his life. Now that he had appeared here with a crippled leg, enduring everyone’s strange gazes, well, Du Ze was actually very magnanimous.
Pei Li clearly didn’t expect Du Ze to have such a big temper. He actually showed no mercy in front of him.. However, he wasn’t stupid. Tonight, he was the main character, and he had already made up his mind to find a good backer for Pei Meimei. Therefore… He knew how to dissect Du Ze’s words.
“Yes, yes, yes. I am indeed forgetful. We have met before. However, Mr. Du seemed to be with your classmate the last time. At that time, Mr. Du was not as high-spirited as he is now. You were by your classmate’s side, so we neglected him.”
“The main reason is that your classmate was too arrogant. He was rich and overbearing and insisted on playing with the waitress. Naturally, we did not notice it. As for how the fight ended, we do not know. However, I’m afraid that Mr. Du’s leg was injured at that time, right? You still have to be careful when making friends, don’t you think so?”
This Pei Li was extremely good at distorting black and white. Even Du Ze did not expect this. However, the smile on Du Ze’s face did not change and his expression did not change. When he heard Pei Li’s shameless words, he smiled and said:
“That’s right. It’s indeed important to be cautious when making friends. If Miss Pei had not forced that waitress to take off her skirt, that classmate of mine would not have taken a liking to her, right?”
“That’s right. If you drink too much, it’s easy for things to go awry. Mr. Pei and Miss Pei are a little young. They’re a mix of men and women, and it’s not taboo for them to mix with each other. I’m impressed.”
“Ah! It’s so messy!”
“That’s right, that’s right. I really didn’t expect this.”
“Du Ze, what nonsense are you spouting? You cripple, who told you to come here? Get lost…”
How could Pei Meimei endure such anger? She immediately flew into a rage. Even Pei Li could not stop her. It was just a small argument. Why was this Meimei so impatient?
Du Ze, on the other hand, seemed to have heard a sense of relief. He did not care how Pei Li berated Pei Meimei. He directly said to Pei Li, “Since Miss Pei is unwilling, I will leave. However, this is the Ouyang family’s banquet after all. I think I should wait until Old Master Ouyang arrives to greet him before leaving. There’s no need for Miss Pei to worry about this.”
“Big Brother, Second Sister, are you guys here? Eh, Du Ze is here too?”
Pei Li was fuming with anger when Pei Xi suddenly walked over.
Pei Li was stunned. Didn’t they say that the Pei family wouldn’t attend? Why would Pei Xi come?
The moment Pei Xi entered the middle area… He said to Pei Li very naturally, “Big Brother, Grandfather and Father asked me to send you something as a token of our sincerity. They said that no matter what, you are still a member of our Pei family. Although your surname is no longer Pei, we still treat you as a member of our family.”
Pei Xi’s words made Pei Li’s expression change. Was the Pei family here to cause trouble? With that said, didn’t they tell everyone that Pei Li had climbed up the ladder and forgot who raised him in the Pei family?
“Ah Xi…”
“Du Ze, you’re here too. Last time, we said that we would have tea together, but I didn’t make it. Let’s play golf together tomorrow. I’ll let you play a few balls.”
Pei Xi’s words made Pei Li stunned. When did Pei Xi become so familiar with Du Ze? And they even agreed to play golf together?
The people around them were also a little surprised. Didn’t they say that Du Ze and the Pei family did not get along? It did not seem like they did not get along now.
“Alright, let’s go together tomorrow. Let’s go over and have a seat. I don’t want Miss Pei to dislike us. She just told me to scram. Different blood breeds different people. Ah Xi is so likable. Why are the other descendants of the Pei family… Ah Xi, I’m sorry. I forgot again. You’re the only one in the Pei family.”
After Du Ze finished speaking, he pulled Pei Xi and turned to the side. This time, everyone had a sudden realization. It seemed that Du Ze did not have any grudges against the Pei family. It was just that he did not get along well with Pei Li and Pei Meimei. This Du Ze was not bad. He did not go through with it. The Pei family was the Pei family, the people who were chased out by the Pei family were different. In fact, Du Ze was right. Different blood breeds had different morals. Even if they had a noble title, the fact that they were bastards could not be erased from their bones.
However, the young man had a high heart. He did not show any mercy to this newly promoted Ouyang family member. It made people feel that he did not know his limits. After all, he was still young. He had yet to learn how to be deceitful and hypocritical in the business world.
“Big Brother!”
“Shut up. Go over to the women’s side. Don’t cause any more trouble tonight. Otherwise, scram back immediately. You’re really a useless person.”
Pei Meimei’s face turned red as she heard the last sentence. Her big brother had never said that about her. However, she did not dare to throw a tantrum now because she could no longer rely on anyone. She could only rely on Pei Li. Therefore… she could only do whatever Pei Li told her to do.
When she saw Pei Xi, the Second Brother whom she had always looked down on, she felt that he was an eyesore. They did not have any kinship at all. Hence, the Pei family would definitely be in Pei Xi’s hands in the future, and her only way out was through Pei Li.
Being scolded by Pei Li now was better than being ignored by him. Hence, when Pei Li asked her to leave, she could only leave.
Just as the little farce ended, Ouyang Tian brought his seven sons to the banquet hall. Everyone tried to squeeze in to brush their faces. However, Shen Xiaoxiao frowned at this moment.
The time was not right!
They were at least 20 minutes earlier than they had expected!
Yan Kuan had estimated the time to be one hour, but only about 40 minutes had passed. These people had arrived so early. Could something have happened?
Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart was raised. She had only heard of the master arriving on time or late. Why had he suddenly arrived early?
As expected, once he sat down, Ouyang Tian began to chat with some familiar people in an extremely friendly manner. Shen Xiaoxiao stood a little further away. She wanted to find a place to hide and not go forward, but everyone surrounded her, if she didn’t go over, she would be the most eye-catching one.
But no matter how far she stood, her name was still called. For a moment, everyone looked in her direction and she forced a smile nervously. This Ouyang Tian called her out for no reason, probably for Yan Kuan’s sake. It was just that she did not know if he had already discovered that Yan Kuan was exploring the Ouyang family’s backyard.
If he knew, would Yan Kuan be in danger?
Under everyone’s envious gazes, they indeed heard Ouyang Tian say to Shen Xiaoxiao, “Isn’t the Shen family’s girl with Yan Kuan? Why didn’t I see him?”
