Chapter 316 The Betrayer
Chapter 316 The Betrayer
Originally there was going to be a confrontation the next day, but that day Xiao Heng sent someone to send a message saying that Qiao Sui was unwell and his mood was unstable. Last night, he sent someone to send a message, saying that it was not suitable for traveling by car after seeing Hong, and he needed to meet them a few days later. His wife, hoping for his pardon, postponed it to the same moment three days later.
After Yan Muhan heard about this, he was in a daze for a while.
The person who sent the letter spoke calmly and was very polite, but it made people on their side even more unhappy.
Pei Si was very angry about this, and his smiling face was rarely suppressed, showing a little more coldness.
"He must have done it on purpose. My lord, you must not fall into his trap. Xiao Heng must have said that on purpose to make us mess up."
Yan Muhan clenched his hand and put it on the table.
He looked suddenly, as if these words could not affect him in any way, only clenched fists could reveal his emotions slightly.
He put his hand on his forehead, but he didn't hear what Pei Si said very clearly, he only felt the buzzing sound in his ears, and his headache was about to split.
When Pei Si noticed his mistake, he hurried forward.
"Lord?"
Compared with His Majesty, in private, Pei Si still prefers to call the person in front of him the Lord.
"My lord, no matter what Xiao Heng says, you have to believe that Ms. Qiao is the one. She is a smart person and will do everything possible to protect herself and the little prince—"
When Yan Muhan heard him mention Qiao Sui, his expression became much clearer.
Concerned about her, he actually knows her better than Pei Si. If it's because of other reasons, it might be possible to meet Hong by chance, but if it's because of a restless mood, it's not necessarily true.
She is a person who is more reliable than anyone else at critical times. She must know that he is thinking about her, so she will definitely take care of herself.
This confrontation with Xiao Heng must be dangerous. For Yan Muhan, even if he wants a child with her, no one is more important to him than her.
He is not someone who likes children very much. He wants children because he wants to keep her.
Therefore, no matter what the price is, he must protect her.
"My lord, you should go to rest. I think you didn't rest much last night, so don't worry Miss Qiao. If something goes wrong with you in three days, Miss Qiao's side will be even more dangerous."
Yan Muhan knew that Pei Si was right.
"I know, let's go down."
Pei Si bowed obediently and left.
Yan Muhan rubbed his painful temple.
Next to him was the tranquilizer that Pei Si had brought. He thought of Qiao Sui, took the medicine and drank it, and fell asleep after a while.
At this time, Pei Si went to a place.
In the dark prison.
Pei Si looked coldly at Jing Pei who was across the railing, with a contemptuous smile on his lips.
"You are the only person who can be so decent after entering here. The lord is so kind to you, and he didn't leave you behind."
Jing Pei slowly raised his eyes to look at him, there was a trace of slowness and dodge in his movements.
The expression on Pei Siwawa's face turned ferocious for a moment because of anger, "Why did you betray the master? I never thought it would be you."
"Pei Si..."
Pei Si bent his lips, and his mood changed in an instant. The ferociousness just now seemed to be an illusion of others, and he returned to that harmless boy again.
Jing Pei was the leader of them, and he used to be the most trusted person of Pei Si. That day when Miss Qiao disappeared, he was on patrol. Because the Lord trusted him, the safety of Miss Qiao was generally entrusted to Jing Pei.
But he let others sneak in, and took them away unknowingly.
If someone else made such a mistake, it might be unintentional, but Jing Pei is definitely not.
Pei Si didn't understand and was very angry.
He is obviously a person who can sacrifice his life for the master, why would he do such a thing, he would not know the importance of Miss Qiao to the master.
However, he knew that he would be exposed, but he didn't leave immediately, instead he came and stayed, with a look of death at the mercy of punishment.
This is the kind of person Pei Si hates the most.
Faithfulness is not perfect, nor is rebellion perfect.
Was he stuck in the middle to make the Lord sympathize with him?It's disgusting.
There was a cold look in his eyes, "Don't call me by my name, you bitch."
The expression under Pei Si's smile was cold and mean. He used the simplest and most humiliating words to describe him.
Jing Pei was not angry about this, nor did he say anything.
Pei Si snorted and continued to speak cruelly.
"A person like you should stay in a place like the slave market forever, and be trampled under by countless people. However, you are so good-looking, maybe you can be sold to a better place without a master." As he spoke, he also sneered.
It is self-evident what he calls a better place.
Such words are a great humiliation to anyone, Jing Pei only felt the veins on his forehead twitch when he heard the words.
If it is normal, everyone will be furious after hearing such words,
Jing Pei knows Pei Si very well. His essence is a very simple person, but because of some things in his childhood, his personality changed drastically. It was his master who saved him a long time ago, so he doesn't care about anything. He is only loyal to his master. When angry, the mouth is very bad.
Ordinary people can't bear it at all.
But Jing Pei knew very well that he said these words because he was too disappointed in himself and had accumulated extreme anger in his heart.
There is no expression on his face, like a machine waiting to be input, but there is still a little difference in the end.
"Feel sorry……"
He accepts all punishments, even if it is Ling Chi, even if it is hacked into pieces.
Pei Si glanced at him coldly, sat lazily in front of him, his red lips curled up, "What's the use of apologizing, you might as well just die, that's the best."
Pei Si took the saber from his waist. It was an extremely delicate crescent-shaped scimitar, and it was his most commonly used weapon.
"I don't know what the lord wants to do with you, but I'm really upset to see you alive. We've had a good relationship in the past. I'll send you on your way."
Jing Pei just looked at her.
Pei Si bent his lips and smiled, with a cruel arc drawn around his lips.
When he held up the sharp knife and his expression became more surly, a voice from outside said softly, "Guard Pei, someone is looking for you."
Pei Si's hand paused.
After being interrupted like this, all the emotions he had brewed were gone, "Tsk, what a disappointment."
Pei Si looked at Jing Pei expressionlessly, and after a while, restrained his expression, "Forget it, it's boring, I'm too lazy to kill you." After finishing speaking, he turned and left, and said lazily.
"Let's wait for Miss Qiao to come back and let the master deal with you."
Pei Sidao, "Think about it carefully, I, you, don't die easily, you have to let the master figure out how to kill you."
He muttered in his mouth, "I really don't understand, did they give you money, or that Xiao Heng is actually your father, you can even betray your master for them, huh."
Jing Pei looked at the direction in which he was leaving, and didn't open his mouth to defend or argue.
Just thinking of the baby-faced boy with a smile on his face who always followed behind him.
Jing Pei lowered his head numbly, looking at the iron locks on his hands, sitting quietly in the prison as if in a trance.
