Chapter 705: A Small Matter

Chu Sihan said coldly, “I heard that there’s a financial problem in the company. They probably need capital transfer urgently.”

If they couldn’t hit on the Chu family and the Jun family, the Pei family was not bad either.

After all, a skinny camel was still bigger than a horse. Even if the Pei family could not compare to the Chu family and the Jun family in terms of finances, they were much better than the current Shen family.

“Of course.” Chu Sihan looked at Pei Yan and said, “We can’t rule out the possibility that Shen Yiyi really likes you.”

Jun Hao chuckled. “A school plot where the female lead helped the male lead pick up a ball and they fell in love at first sight.”

Pei Yan said, “… Even if that’s the case, it’s just her wishful thinking.”

He did not even like Zhou Qiong, so how could he like Shen Yiyi?

Moreover, he already had someone in his heart.

“Does Ling Fei know about this?” Lu Sheng asked.

Pei Yan nodded and looked troubled. “She knows.”

Shen Yiyi had gotten his number from his mother and had been looking for him frequently recently.

Every time he blocked her, she would change her number. She was so annoying.

It was also because of this that Ling Fei did not look for him recently.

“Then, has she been looking for you recently?”

Lu Sheng’s question poked at Pei Yan’s heart.

In the past, Ling Fei pestered him every day. Other than being a little annoying, he did not feel anything else.

However, recently, not only did Ling Fei not take the initiative to find him, but she even avoided him the moment she saw him. This made him feel uncomfortable.

It was also this that allowed him to finally understand his feelings.

He liked Ling Fei and had liked her for a long time. It was just that he did not notice it.

Seeing Pei Yan’s sudden silence, Lu Sheng clicked her tongue.

She deliberately said, “Didn’t you hate her in the past? Now, it’s good that you can use Shen Yiyi to get rid of her.”

Pei Yan said, “…I don’t find her annoying.”

“Really?” Lu Sheng clicked her tongue. “But every time she gets close to you, you always put on an impatient expression. I thought you hated her.”

Pei Yan was speechless.

He had indeed done it on purpose back then to let Ling Fei stay away from him.

However, he could not wait for her to pester him every day like before.

“If there’s a misunderstanding, solve it early,” Jun Hao said. “Otherwise, it’ll be too late for you to regret it if someone else steals your sweetheart.”

It was not scary to pursue his wife at the crematorium. What was scary was that he could not even catch up after being cremated. Wouldn’t that be regretful?

Chu Sihan chuckled. “Aren’t you the same as others?”

“Me?” Jun Hao frowned. “Why am I the same as him?”

He did not like anyone.

Chu Sihan smiled and did not speak.

Lu Sheng looked at Jun Hao and smiled.

This person did not feel any danger yet. Otherwise, he would not deny it so self-righteously.

“We happened to be back.” Lu Sheng looked at Pei Yan and said, “Why don’t I call Ling Fei and everyone gather?”

“It’s useless.” Pei Yan shook his head. “She won’t see me until we settle Shen Yiyi’s matter.”

“Have you expressed your feelings to her?” Lu Sheng asked.

Pei Yan was stunned. After a long while, he shook his head with reddened ears. “No.”

Seeing his expression, Lu Sheng raised her eyebrows in surprise.

She did not expect the seemingly shameless Pei Yan to be so innocent.

“Why would a man be embarrassed?” Seeing his shy expression, Jun Hao could not help but complain. “If you like her, confess. What has that got to do with Shen Yiyi? Can’t you just tell her that you don’t like Shen Yiyi? It’s not a big deal!”
