After a tragic death and rebirth, the iceberg president turned crazy

Chapter 278 What does Pei Yan want to do? Is he planning to imprison me?

"Get a divorce certificate?"

"Now?"

Lin Man didn't understand why Pei Yan brought it up suddenly. She was unprepared and was in a hurry.

"No?" Pei Yan flipped a page of the document and asked calmly.

"No, it's just that I feel it's too sudden and time is a bit tight. Can you make it happen? I mean...what if I don't have to be there in person, or I ask Xiaojun to pick it up for me?"

"Lin Man, do you think divorce is a joke, or do you think the Civil Affairs Bureau is run by my family? I will only give you ten minutes. If I don't see you after ten minutes, don't ask for the divorce certificate."

Pei Yan hung up the phone after saying this.

Lin Man listened to the beeping sound in her ear and didn't understand why Pei Yan suddenly jumped out to cause trouble at this time, but she must get the divorce certificate. "Master, go to Changxun Street."

Lin Man changed her route halfway. Coincidentally, it took exactly ten minutes from Lin Man's location to Changxun Street. If Pei Yan hadn't known that she was leaving, she would have almost doubted how such a coincidence could happen in the world.

On the side of the road, a black Maybach with its hazard lights on was parked nearby. Lin Man held her twitching eyelids, picked up her bag, and got into Pei Yan's car.

The driver changed from He Sheng to a strange man whom Lin Man had never seen before.

She tightened her grip, feeling a little uncomfortable in the extremely private interior of the car.

After she got on the car, Pei Yan ignored her and didn't say a word to her.

Lin Man wanted to roll down the window, but found that it wouldn't move.

"Why did you change cars?"

Pei Yan looked up only after she spoke, but he did not look at her. Instead, he turned the pen in his hand with a gloomy expression.

"Isn't this bad? After all, divorce is not a glorious thing. I don't want everyone to know about it."

Lin Man nodded silently. Although she didn't understand, there was no need to argue with him over such a trivial matter. After all, it was only a short distance away.

She leaned against the car door and fell into a deep sleep.

Pei Yan just looked at her quietly, his calm eyes showing no emotion.

The car slowly stopped and Lin Man opened his eyes.

She was about to get off the car when she heard Pei Yan's voice coming from behind her.

"No matter how I treat you, you can't let go of your past prejudices and live a good life with me, right?"

Pei Yan looked at Lin Man with his dark eyes, and there was an unclear surge hidden under his calm expression.

"Yes."

Lin Man's eyes wandered for a moment. She opened her lips and it took a long while before she uttered these words.

"Very good."

Pei Yan chuckled, but his eyes were without any emotion.

In the past, when he wanted to coax Lin Man, he would speak softly and gently, but now, he is not pretending anymore. This is his true self.

"You left me because you want to be with Ji Ze?"

Lin Man said nothing.

Pei Yan chuckled, his eyes were even cold.

"Since you wanted to be with him, why didn't you accept him when he expressed his feelings to you on the rooftop of Ji's Group?"

Lin Man's eyes moved, "Pei Yan, don't involve others in our affairs."

She was really afraid that Pei Yan would suddenly go crazy and deal with Ji Ze.

Then she would be even more unable to repay what she owed Ji Ze…

"If you're afraid, why do you pretend to be intimate with him and trample on my Pei Yan's face?"

Pei Yan's gaze was calm, and he looked at Lin Man as if he was looking at a stranger.

"I haven't thought of it that way."

Pei Yan chuckled, "Really?" He suddenly started playing with a string of beads. The intermittent turning sound made Lin Man feel a chill down his spine.

"When you first approached Ji Ze in the hospital, you trampled on my dignity. In order to force me to submit, you even gave up your most cherished reputation. You really... took great pains."

Pei Yan's voice was very calm, but Lin Man knew that this was the way he was holding back his rage.

Lin Man turned her head and said, "Pei Yan, now that things have come to this, you have agreed to a divorce, so let's just say goodbye."

From this moment on, she no longer hated him, nor the hurt and pain he had brought her.

Lin Man wanted to leave, but Pei Yan gently called her from behind.

"Linman."

She turned around and looked at Pei Yan with confusion.

But he chuckled, "Since you disdain my love for you, then taste my hatred."

Lin Man didn't answer, she pushed open the car door.

When I saw the towering buildings in front of me, my heart sank.

This is not the Civil Affairs Bureau at all!

"Pei Yan! What do you want to do..."

Before she could finish her words, she lost consciousness.

Inside the first floor lobby of the airport.

Ji Ze stood at the door, looking off into the distance. His dark eyes were like a long, endless alley. His expression was calm, but one could not ignore the deep sense of powerlessness he concealed.

"Mr. Ji, twenty minutes have passed. Miss Lin... probably won't come. You'd better not wait any longer. I'll go back with you. It's windy here and your wounds haven't healed yet." The female secretary's eyes revealed worry.

She wanted to take off her coat and put it on Ji Ze, but Ji Ze stretched out his hand to avoid her.

Ji Ze's eyes did not change, still looking into the distance, and said firmly: "No, even if Manman really decided not to go with me, she would definitely send me a message. Now that she hasn't replied to me yet, she must have encountered something."

"Boss Ji..." The female secretary wanted to persuade him again, but Ji Ze seemed to realize something. He turned around and looked at the female secretary and said, "What is Ah Yan's schedule today? Go check it out!"

"Yes!" The female secretary said quickly, "Boss Ji, Boss Pei has a charity donation meeting on his schedule today. In order to expand the influence of the Pei Group, Boss Pei personally attends the charity donations every year, but he was not there today. The person who came was his secretary, He Sheng!"

"not good."

"Go check A Yan's location!"

-

White wooden fence, window sills covered with white roses.

Lin Man woke up to the fragrant smell. Looking at the unfamiliar room, she did not panic nor make a fuss. Lin Man rubbed her temples and calmly accepted the fact that something might happen.

She was deceived by Pei Yan!

Walking barefoot on the soft carpet, Lin Man got out of bed and looked at the magnificent living room illuminated by the bright lights. A dozen servants were taking care of the place in an orderly manner. When they saw her coming out, everyone suddenly looked at her. The woman in the lead coughed lightly, and then they hurriedly withdrew their gazes.

"My name is Linlin, I'm the housekeeper here. Would you like to have dinner first?"

Lin Man glanced at the exquisite tableware and delicacies on the table and looked away, "Do I dare to eat the food here? Where is the phone? I need to make a call, a phone that can contact the outside world."

"Come with me." Linlin took Lin Man to another living room.

Lin Man looked at the telephone on the coffee table and glanced at Linlin. She originally thought that it would be difficult to get the call, but she didn't expect that she would agree so readily. Sitting on the side of the sofa, Lin Man picked up the old telephone and dialed the police directly.

Three beeps sounded.

A familiar voice came into Lin Man's ears, "Hello, Pei Group Secretariat."

With a "click", Lin Man hung up the phone.

She thought about Ji Ze's number in her mind, picked up the phone and dialed it again. After three beeps, she said, "Hello, this is the Pei Group Secretariat."

Lin Man's forehead twitched.

He Sheng hurriedly said, "Madam, please stop bothering me. Mr. Pei is in a meeting, so the phone line of Haicheng Manor is connected to my mobile phone. After Mr. Pei's meeting is over, all the calls you make from the manor to the outside world will be made to Mr. Pei's mobile phone first."

"Don't call me Madam. I'm divorced." Lin Man's words made He Sheng hesitate. She looked around the room and asked, "What does Pei Yan want? Are you planning to imprison me?"

"How could that be? President Pei really wants to live a good life with you. Just listen to my advice and stop getting involved with President Ji. President Ji's family is too complicated and not suitable for you. What's more, our President Pei is no worse than President Ji in any way, and he always misses you. As long as you are willing to open your mouth and soften your temper, your life will be very good in the future. Not only will you no longer have to worry about material things, but you will also be able to take care of your spiritual life."

"Please make a phone call for me." Lin Man sat on the edge of the sofa, gently fiddling with her nails.

He Sheng's forehead jumped, and he had a bad feeling in his heart. He asked tentatively: "Call...who?"

"Please tell Ji Ze that I won't go with him. Tell him to take care of himself."

"Madam...you are making things difficult for me." He Sheng's words sounded nice, but if he was asked to do something that would be detrimental to Pei Yan for Lin Man, he would not agree.

Lin Man said slowly, "There is a girl at the front desk of Pei's Group who is your fellow villager. She only has a junior high school education but you hired her as an exception. She even killed the evergreen plant that Pei's had been raising for ten years by watering it with hot water by mistake. You concealed the news and bought an identical one from the market to make up the number."

"If you don't help me call Ji Ze, I will tell Pei Yan all this."

"Madam! You..." He Sheng was shocked and lowered his voice, "I don't understand what you are talking about."

Lin Man didn't say anything. She hung up the phone and walked towards the door. She knew He Sheng must be shocked, but these things did happen in her previous life.

He Sheng is Pei Yan's right-hand man, but he was not very kind to her in his previous life. He was just and impartial. She did not attack him immediately after she was reborn because she knew both herself and the enemy. She had all the information to restrain He Sheng, and she believed that He Sheng would think it over carefully.

She walked to the door, and the servant in the house did not even raise his head to stop her. Lin Man pushed the door open hesitantly, wondering if she was overthinking and Pei Yan had no intention of imprisoning her. The next moment, she raised her head and found that there was a security guard every three steps in the manor on the mountain.

As soon as she took a step forward, an arm blocked her, "Madam, please go back."

"Who asked you to come? Do you know what you are doing? I am not your wife, and you have no right to restrict my personal freedom. I want to leave now. Please don't stop me, otherwise I will definitely hire a lawyer to prosecute you. Get out of the way." Lin Man took a step forward, and the man still stood in front of Lin Man motionlessly.

"Please go back."

His expression remained unchanged, as if he couldn't hear what Lin Man said. Lin Man turned and went upstairs, knowing that there was no point in pestering him any further.

The next day.

She went downstairs with the milk and heard Linlin making a phone call on the landline in the living room. "Yes, don't worry. Ms. Lin's diet is normal, but she is often picky about food. Sometimes she says the apples are not sweet, and sometimes she says the pillow is not soft. Let us deal with it and replace it immediately..."

Before Linlin finished her words, Lin Man snatched the phone from her hand and put it to her ear. Pei Yan said, "Except leaving the manor, everything else will satisfy her."

"Pei Yan, you bastard! You tricked me here with your divorce certificate, so why are you afraid to come out and see people? You liar! Let me leave here right now!" Lin Man's calm emotions couldn't calm down for a long time since she heard Pei Yan's voice.

She cursed Pei Yan with all the dirty words she could think of in her life, and only then did she stop talking in relief.

There was silence on the line, with only the occasional sound of breathing proving that the call had not been hung up.

After a while, a beeping sound was heard and Pei Yan hung up the phone.

Lin Man put down the phone with a bang, turned around and went back to her room to sleep.

At night, Lin Man suddenly heard Ji Ze's voice. He was standing on the rooftop of Ji's house facing the wind, his eyes red, and jumped down from the rooftop.

"No!" Lin Man suddenly sat up and looked at the furnishings in the room, then she realized that this was just a dream.

She was about to lie down, but suddenly she felt a pair of eyes looking at her, and slender fingers were caressing her neck, which made her sweat instantly. She turned around suddenly and saw the familiar figure, and her heart almost froze, "Pei Yan..."

"Didn't you say I lied to you and was afraid to see anyone? Now that I'm here, are you still dissatisfied?"

Outside the window, dim lights shone into the room. Pei Yan sat on a chair beside Lin Man's bed, his fingers stroking Lin Man's fair and slender neck. He blended into the night in a black suit, his legs crossed, and he leaned back lazily.

The dark eyes slowly looked at Lin Man's large white skin exposed by her clothes slipping off. "Ah!" Lin Man followed Pei Yan's line of sight and quickly picked up the quilt to wrap herself tightly. "Don't come over!"

Pei Yan's Adam's apple moved. He unbuttoned a few buttons on his chest, stood up, lifted Lin Man's quilt, and pinned her under him.

His lips and teeth brushed across Lin Man's ear, bit it punishingly and said in a low voice: "You were quite arrogant when you were on the phone today, why are you so cowardly now?"

Lin Man's body stiffened, and Pei Yan's eyes flashed with satisfaction. He put his big hand behind her head and was about to kiss her, but his body was suddenly pushed away by a force. The next moment, he raised his head and saw Lin Man's action, his face sank, "Who allowed you to use this, give it to me!"

He spoke in a low voice with a rebuke, and looked at the scissors in Lin Man's hand with a gloomy face, "Pei Yan, you dare to force me! Believe it or not, I will make you childless!"

"We haven't obtained a divorce certificate yet. I am the first legal heir to all your property. I warn you not to mess around!"

Lin Man used the excuse that the pillow was uncomfortable, and while Lin Lin was changing the pillow, she hid a pair of scissors underneath it, specifically to protect herself from hooligans like Pei Yan!

Pei Yan didn't even look at the scissors pointed at his chest, as if he didn't take it seriously at all.

"You also know that we haven't obtained a divorce certificate yet? Lin Man, what did you promise me? Did I warn you to stay away from Ji Ze? Did you keep your promise?"
