“Not at all.” Pei You’an instantly became tactful. “Brother, your personality is especially good. After all, your personality can even win over Sister-in-law. How can it be bad, right?”

Although the words sounded smooth, how could Pei Jingzhou not tell that these words were more insinuating than before?

Pei Jingzhou glanced at Pei You’an and smirked coldly. “Young brat.”

At this moment, Youyou’s cries had become much softer. But her small shoulders were still twitching. It was obvious that she hadn’t been throwing a tantrum. She had really been crying her heart out. The bangs on her forehead were wet with sweat.

Li Xiwu carefully brushed the bangs off Youyou’s forehead.

Youyou rubbed against her and was about to come to Li Xiwu when she reached out. “Hug~”

Li Xiwu took Youyou and hugged her. The tears on Youyou’s face had yet to dry, so she rubbed some on Pei Jingzhou’s collar. Now that she was in Li Xiwu’s arms, she rubbed some on Li Xiwu’s thin velvet high collar, but there were no obvious traces.

Li Xiwu coaxed her gently, “If Youyou believes that there are Ultraman in this world, there must be. Your thoughts have to be firm and not be shaken.

Youyou was shaken just now.”

Youyou whined in Li Xiwu’s arms. “Then has Mom seen Ultraman?

Li Xiwu smiled faintly. “Mom has never seen it before. Because Mom’s thoughts are not firm enough, I can’t see Ultraman. As long as Youyou’s thoughts are firm and not shaken, you will definitely see Ultraman one day.” Youyou propped up her head and asked with a serious expression, “Really?”

Li Xiwu replied, “Of course.”

It was a white lie. A child whose faith had been shattered would not easily be interested in many things in the future as they grew up. If she continued to maintain this faith and gradually grew up, she could easily accept the fact that there were no Ultraman in this world. She could also maintain her passionate faith forever.

Youyou immediately smiled, and her eyes curved into crescents. Li Xiwu knew that Youyou’s mood had been cured. She asked gently, “Do you still want to play with Little Uncle?”

Youyou nodded. “Yes.”

Pei You’an widened his eyes in shock and quickly gave her a thumbs up. “Sister-in-law, you’re too awesome. Youyou isn’t angry with me just because of a few words.”

Li Xiwu exuded a motherly glow from head to toe, and her expression and tone were especially gentle “Actually, I haven’t completely figured out Youyou’s personality, but there’s one thing. It’s easy to communicate with Youyou. As long as you communicate with her seriously, she can listen to all the words and logic.”

When Pei You’an heard this, he said firmly, “Youyou must take after you on this point.”

Li Xiwu smiled and asked, “Why do you think so?”

Pei You’an glanced at Pei Jingzhou. “Because my brother didn’t give me a chance to communicate with him at all. He’s as dictatorial as my father.”

“Ahem!” Pei Qingji coughed lightly and reminded Pei You’an, “I’m still here.”

Pei You’an smiled awkwardly and quickly shut his mouth. He was afraid that if he said anything else, he would not be able to escape that beating tonight.

It was almost nine o’clock, but Han Qianye had no intention of leaving.

Pei Qingji reminded her several times. Han Qianye pretended not to hear it at first, but seeing that it was getting later and later, she was afraid that she would delay her son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter’s rest.

Li Xiwu had the intention to keep Han Qianye. The house in Lake Lu was very big, and there were several guest rooms. It was not a problem to stay there.

Han Qianye almost agreed, but she was still rational. If she stayed here, she would definitely want to chat with Li Xiwu. She had no choice. The moment she saw Li Xiwu, her mouth and hands could not stop moving.

Pei You’an would only return to school tomorrow afternoon, so he asked, “Dad, Mom, can I stay here for the night when you go back?”

Pei Qingji said, “No.”

Han Qianye said, “Did you hear what your father said? No.”

Pei You’an turned to beg Pei Jingzhou with a fawning expression. “Brother, can

I stay here for the night?”

Pei Jingzhou smiled. “Obviously…”

Pei You’an’s eyes were filled with anticipation.

Pei Jingzhou said, “Obviously not.”

The anticipation on Pei You’an’s face instantly turned into frustration. “Don’t tell me you’re holding a grudge just because I made Youyou cry just now.”

Pei Jingzhou said, “You’re always so carefree. You don’t have the stability of an adult at all. When do you think it’s appropriate for me to arrange for you to enter the company?

‘Enter the company? No way. It’s too early. I haven’t graduated from high school.” Pei You’an’s head hurt when he heard that he was going to enter the company. His thoughts were the same as Pei Jiao’s. He liked freedom. It was enough to have his brother in the company. He didn’t want to get involved at all.

Pei Jingzhou glanced sideways at Pei You’an. “Nine years of compulsory education. The journey is long and the mission is heavy. Which year did you miss?

Pei You’an:

Pei Jingzhou reminded him, “You’re used to the current stability, but you’ve never thought of maintaining it. It’s true that I’m your brother, but managing the Pei family is not just my business. The blood of the Pei family runs in your veins, so you have to protect the Pei family.”

The principles came as it pleased. Pei You’an was not mentally prepared to comprehend it.

Pei You’an said, “Brother…

Pei Jingzhou said, “What do you take me for? The Pei family’s sky?”

Pei You’an’s tone was a little self-righteous. “Dad handed the company to you and the Pei family’s power to you. You’re the Pei family’s sky now.”

Pei Jingzhou sneered. “The burden of the Pei family is not on you. You don’t feel pressured, so you naturally yearn for freedom. I don’t need you to mature immediately, but you have to remember that no one can support you forever.” Pei You’an pursed his lips and fell silent.

At this moment, the two brothers were together. It was rare for Pei Jingzhou to talk so much. Other aristocratic families fought openly and secretly, and brothers fought. Pei Jingzhou and Pei You’an were respectful towards each other. Such a relationship was rare in a tycoon’s family. However, as time passed, Pei You’an’s personality easily deteriorated because he enjoyed peace too much.

Pei Jingzhou sighed. “Pei You’an, you have to be glad that you were born in the Pei family.”

Pei You’an’s eyes were clear and stupid. “Huh?”

The clear stupidity in Pei You’an’s eyes was too obvious. It was difficult for Pei Jingzhou to ignore it. “If you were in the He family, no one would know where you would die now.”

Pei You’an shuddered when he heard this.

Although he didn’t pay much attention, his friends of the same age were all in the circle of aristocratic families, so he had naturally heard a little about them. His peers, or those who were a few years older, had already started fighting for the family assets at the age of fifteen or sixteen. In order to fight for the family assets and the inheritance rights, it wasn’t unusual for someone to suddenly disappear one day. It would only be an accident when they found out.

However, after his brothers reminder, Pei You’an suddenly thought of He

Wang, who was in the tigers den of the He family.. Hence, he asked, “Brother, how has Brother Wang been recently?”
