The man in front of her was like a painting, like a flower.
Lin Xiaolan was infatuated with him and became nervous. She didn’t know how much of what she had just said the man heard.
“Did you send the news?” Pei Zhengyang looked at the woman on the gurney and thought of the ‘big gift’ he had received yesterday. His amber eyes showed a rare trace of annoyance.
“I… don’t understand what you’re talking about.” Lin Xiaolan murmured timidly. She didn’t know why the man in front of her was always gentlemanly and restrained. He didn’t even seem aggressive when he questioned her, but she was still afraid, and her voice also sounded a little guilty.
When she had taken Lin Xiaxqing’s place and pretended to wake up in his arms, Young Master Pei had also been gentle and affectionate to her. However, for some reason, he cooled down after only a few days and never touched her.
Later, when Xiaxqing was pregnant, she knew the Pei family wouldn’t keep a child with an unknown background, so she was worried that the Pei family would investigate her, then find out about Lin Xiaxqing. That was why she had arranged for the rest of the matter and caught the Pei family by surprise.
Her thoughts were in turmoil, but the expression on Lin Xiaoran’s face was innocent and even appeared pitiful.
“You want to marry me?” Pei Zhengyang didn’t want to see the woman’s poor acting. He thought back to when he saw the bright red patch on the white bed-sheet, and he also wanted to take responsibility, but unfortunately…
Pei Zhengyang looked at the pretentious woman in front of him and frowned.
Lin Xiaoran’s face was pink. “Young Master Pei, I…”
“Do you want to or not?” His well-defined fingers knocked on the back of his other hand. Those who were familiar with him would know that he was impatience, but his voice was still clear and pleasant. He didn’t even seem abrupt when he interrupted the other party.
“… Yes.” Lin Xiaoran didn’t know why she felt an invisible pressure. Moreover, she realized that if she continued to speak, the man in front of her might turn around and leave immediately. He spoke as if he was gambling.
“Okay, wait for my notification.”
After saying that, Pei Zhengyang didn’t look at Lin Xiaolan anymore. He turned around and walked towards the elevator, as if they were just talking about the weather today instead of marriage.
Lin Xiaolan stood there in a daze. After a long while, she slowly turned her head to look at her mother. “Mom, what did Young Master Pei mean just now?”
“He agreed to marry you?” With a trembling voice, Li Suying said as she pushed Lin Xiaolan into the ward. She clearly couldn’t believe it either.
“Mom!” Lin Xiaolan suddenly cried out in surprise.
Li Suying rushed forward, “What’s wrong? What’s wrong?”
“I’m going to marry Pei Zhengyang. I’m going to be the Young Madam of the Pei family! I’m going to be the richest woman in Jin City, no, in the whole country!” Lin Xiaolan was so excited that she forgot about the injury on her leg, and her face was full of excitement.
The Pei family was a hundred-year-old blue-blood family in Jin City. They had a wide range of businesses, especially in the pharmaceutical and medical industries. The hospitals controlled by the Pei family were all over the country, and their financial resources were unimaginable.
The Lin family’s company was just a pharmaceutical company under the Pei family’s corporation.
Pei Zhengyang was the only grandson of the Pei family. He had outstanding looks and intelligence, but unfortunately, he was a sickly man with a weak heart. It was said that he wouldn’t live past thirty, and this year, he was already twenty-five.
Thinking of marrying Pei Zhengyang and having everything in the Pei family belong to her in the future, Lin Xiaoran’s eyes turned red with excitement. She felt that her decision to replace Lin Xiazing and force the fat woman to give birth to a child was the right one.
Li Suying’s face turned red when she heard her daughter’s words. It was as if she was already the mother-in-law of the eldest Young Master of the Pei family.
At the elevator entrance, the moment Pei Zhengyang stepped into the elevator, a pair of sparkling almond-shaped eyes appeared in his mind. There was also that sentence, “Are you sick?”? Heart disease! No one had dared to be so presumptuous in front of him for so many years. However, how did she know that his heart condition wasn’t good?
“Second Young Master, are you really going to marry Miss Lin?” Ah-Hai thought of the pretentious and scheming mother and daughter. He was a little annoyed and pulled the distracted Pei Zhengyang back to reality.
“Yes.”
“But she schemed against you.”
“The Pei family needs a child. The child needs a mother,” Pei Zhengyang replied indifferently.
Back then, it was an accident for that woman to climb into bed with him. It was even more unexpected for her to give birth to his child. However, compared to the process, the Pei family valued the outcome more.
More importantly, Lin Guofu’s Fukang Pharmaceutical had invested in 5% of the Pei Corporation’s technology shares eighteen years ago. These shares hadn’t been touched for many years. Now that Pei Corporation was facing internal and external problems, marrying Lin Xiaolan could reduce this aspect of the risk.
Therefore, he was going to marry Lin Xiaolan.
