Chapter 164
Pei Buxian sneered, "Am I crazy? I'm totally sober, okay?!"
He argued rationally, "Qiao Chuchu went to find Rayla to protect me. Everything she did was for my sake. This is supposed to be my moment to thank her alone, yet all of you are sticking to her like glue. What's wrong with me calling her out alone?!"
"Don't you fucking flatter yourself! She went because we were all in danger!" Pei Ci raised his voice, grabbing Pei Buxian by the collar and reprimanding, "That's not a reason to overstep boundaries!!"
Pei Buxian shouted back without backing down, "Someone has to cross the line first. Why can't it be me?!"
Pei Ci: "?!"
Pei Buxian's face showed little emotion, but his eyes were filled with madness. "She just told me she could wish me happiness, watch me marry and have children. Her magnanimity scares me. I don't want her blessing, and I don't want to bless her either. I just want to be tangled with her for life—a messy, muddled life!"
Pei Ci was trembling with anger. "Didn't you hate it the most when she was clingy with you before?!"
"Yes!" Pei Buxian admitted without hesitation. "Because every time she was clingy with me, I'd have physical reactions. I felt ashamed. I didn't want her to see it, and I didn't want you guys to see it either. Is that a problem?"
Pei Ci was stunned, unable to speak.
Pei Buxian laughed coldly. "But don’t pretend, Pei Ci. Three years ago, when Qiao Chuchu deliberately seduced you in your office, you had a reaction too. I saw it."
Pei Ci's face turned pale, full of shock.
Pei Buxian tilted his chin, blatantly provoking him, "You look like you're lecturing me out of a brotherly sense of righteousness, but in reality, you're just jealous of me."
Pei Ci's facial muscles twitched as he slowly retracted his hand, gritting his teeth.
Pei Buxian suddenly felt a surge of pleasure. "How about it? Don't you feel better after everything's been laid bare? But you'd better keep it hidden from now on, or else your beloved mischievous older brother persona will fall apart."
Pei Ci remained silent, enduring and lowering his head.
Pei Buxian mocked him as he bumped shoulders with Pei Ci and walked past. "Just pretend you didn't see anything today, okay? Just like how three years ago, I kept quiet when I saw your reaction—I helped you keep it a secret."
Pei Ci's head buzzed, and he grabbed Pei Buxian's shoulder, punching him hard. "You knew about my feelings and still provoked me!!"
Pei Yuan came out of the room and saw what was happening, shouting, "What are you two doing?"
The others also began to emerge, watching the two men at the end of the corridor.
An enraged Pei Ci pointed at Pei Buxian and growled, "He fucking won’t let go of Qiao Chuchu!!"
The crowd was stunned and quickly rushed toward Pei Buxian. "What??"
Weisheng Huailing, who had been casually watching the scene with his hands in his pockets, instantly felt his blood boil upon understanding Pei Ci's words. Rolling up his sleeves, he charged forward!
Something fell out of his pocket.
It was a delicate drone.
Qiao Chuchu came out of the room, intending to intervene, but she noticed the small drone in Weisheng Huailing's hand.
She bent down, picked up the little drone from the ground, and examined it carefully.@@novelbin@@
[Hmm? This seems to be the same as the one behind Rayla.]
As she toyed with it in her hand, she suddenly thought of something and turned cold. "Wait a minute!"
The group pinning Pei Buxian against the wall all turned their heads to look at her.
Qiao Chuchu raised the drone in her hand, her expression growing darker. "What’s this?"
They were stunned, subconsciously glancing at Weisheng Huailing.
What's going on? How did this get exposed?!
Weisheng Huailing's face changed as he reached into his pocket.
When did it fall out?!
Qiao Chuchu narrowed her eyes sharply. "Were you all spying on me just now? Tracking me with this drone?"
Huailing shook his head like a rattle drum!
Lou Tingsi also reflexively shook his head. "No! No! No!"
The others looked bewildered. "What are you talking about? We don't understand."
Qiao Chuchu's face turned cold as she slammed the drone onto the ground with force.
The drone shattered into pieces instantly!
An oppressive silence engulfed the room!
They held their breath, staring at the shattered drone before slowly lifting their eyes to meet Qiao Chuchu's dark expression.
"Explain," Qiao Chuchu's tone grew sinister, her face void of emotion. "If you can't give a reasonable explanation, don’t bother talking to me anymore."
What do you think?
