After a tragic death and rebirth, the iceberg president turned crazy
Chapter 292 Go find my mother-in-law to save me!
Lin Man's originally relaxed heart suddenly tensed up again. Her palms tightened, and her originally calm heart began to beat again. Pei Yan walked towards her step by step, and Lin Man's heart was about to burst.
Why did he come back suddenly?
"Why are you standing here?"
Pei Yan looked at the hidden corner where Lin Man was standing and spoke softly.
He took off his coat and the maid took it and hung it up for him.
Lin Man felt so cold that the chill was about to escape from the soles of her feet. She was afraid that the old master standing next to her would suddenly say something that would be irreversible. Fortunately, the old master just glanced at her, snorted coldly, and said nothing.
Liu Lin also came down from upstairs at this moment. Seeing Pei Yan coming back, she immediately walked over and said, "Madam, why are you standing here?" She glanced at the maid who was hanging Pei Yan's coat and said, "Didn't I tell you to take good care of Madam?"
"I..." The maid was also a little scared when facing Liu Lin's scrutiny. Lin Man said at the right time: "Okay, I have hands and feet and don't need anyone to take care of me. I just came here because the light here is good and I was afraid that the old man couldn't see clearly."
Liu Lin didn't say anything, but she and Lin Man both knew in their hearts that the care here was just surveillance. After all, her job was to "take care" of Lin Man.
"Yes."
Lin Man didn't look at Liu Lin again. She focused her eyes on Pei Yan, "Why are you back?"
Pei Yan lit a cigarette, walked to the sofa and sat down, crossing his legs, "I'll go with you to look at the material."
Lin Man said nothing, looking at the exquisite jade pieces in the glass display case.
"Is there anyone you like?" Pei Yan asked lightly.
Liu Lin said, "Madam, the materials here are all newly mined. If you don't like what you see, there are raw stones outside."
Pei Yan noticed Lin Man's absent-minded look. He sat on the sofa without saying a word, tapping his fingers intermittently, not knowing what he was thinking about. In fact, Lin Man's mind was not on this. Her attention was all on the old master in the corner.
With the unpleasantness at the beginning, he had already preconceived that she was playing a trick on him. Could Lin Man still ask him for help? She was a little anxious in her heart. Why did Pei Yan come back at this time? Otherwise, she could have given her more time to fight for it.
The atmosphere suddenly became cold. The old master who had been indifferent came out, took out a piece of jade from his sleeve, and said solemnly: "You have a thin wrist and fair skin. Although these materials are good, they lack a bit of spiritual energy. Look at this piece. I have treasured it for many years. If I didn't think it was suitable for you, I would not have taken it out. Jade will find its destined person."
As he spoke, he raised his eyelids, shrugged his shoulders and stood lazily aside, "Okay, then I want this one." Seeing the old master taking the initiative to talk, Lin Man hurriedly said.
"One hundred million."
Liu Lin was astonished, "Why is jade so expensive?" She was not a person who had never seen the world. The stones in the hands of the old craftsman were clearly uncut. How could he guarantee that they were worth so much money?
The old master drooped his eyelids and said, "This is my family heirloom, so it is worth the price."
Liu Lin frowned, feeling somewhat unwilling. Isn't this taking advantage of their husbands? But before she could speak, Lin Man interrupted her and said, "Okay, I want this."
Pei Yan glanced at the stone but said nothing. He stood up and handed Liu Lin a card. "Mr. Pei, Han Ming is looking for you."
The maid's words made Lin Man think. After what happened last time, Han Ming did not come in again, but waited at the door.
Pei Yan picked up his coat and went out. Liu Lin went to pay the bill. Lin Man and the master were left alone in the huge living room again. Lin Man looked at Pei Yan's back as he left, her heart beating fast.
She didn't hesitate. Just as the old master was about to leave, she stepped forward and grabbed his arm. "You...what are you doing!" He was obviously stunned by Lin Man's unserious look. "I'm not kidding you. Help me send the letter out, or I'll tell Pei Yan that you used a piece of rough stone to fool him and cheated him out of 100 million!"
The old master's eyes widened instantly, and he pointed at Lin Man with a shocked look, "You...what nonsense are you talking about!"
"You must be thinking, since the stone has not been cut open, no one knows what is inside. Even if the jade inside is not satisfactory after cutting, you can blame it on the stone. Anyway, if someone asks you, you can just say that this is my heirloom. Am I right?"
"I am not talented, but I just know some knowledge about these jade materials. Even with the strong light from the living room, I can't even see a hint of green. Do you think I am too easy to fool? Or do you think the Pei family has too much money to let you tease me like this?"
“You…” The old master was speechless.
Lin Man's tone suddenly softened, and she lowered her voice and said, "Don't worry, I know you don't want to come either. You were probably coerced and induced by Pei Yan to make a bracelet for me. Don't worry, as long as you help me, I will give you another 100 million."
-
"Boss Pei, Jiang Xuzhi handed over all the industries in China to Miss Gan and returned to Italy to stabilize the situation. However... Chavas was not able to defeat Jiang Xuzhi. He has completely regained control of the Italian border. Our subsequent actions may be restricted."
Pei Yan slightly turned the watch on his wrist. His black coat made him look handsome. His deep and dark eyes did not contain any extra expressions. He just said, "How did Jiang Xuzhi regain control of the Italian checkpoint?" With just one sentence, he grasped the important point of Han Ming's words.
Han Ming did not hide it. He was waiting for Pei Yan to ask, otherwise he would be suspected of instigation.
As a subordinate, he knew this very well. "Ji Ze provided a large amount of funds to Jiang Xuzhi, and Jiang Xuzhi found that Chavas's eldest son had violated laws and disciplines. He made a big deal out of a small matter and turned the tables."
"Ji Ze?" Pei Yan's voice was low and his dark eyes were dim and unclear.
"Yes." Han Ming agreed. He was not surprised at all. Although the relationship between the two had reached a freezing point, since they could separate, they could also reconcile. It was just that their goals were different. Jiang Xuzhi wanted power, and Ji Ze wanted...
"Don't worry, the encirclement and suppression of Ji Ze has been arranged. As long as he signs the contract, he will not be able to leave Haishi..."
-
Lin Man's gaze was steady and his voice was solemn, his eyes full of seriousness and determination.
Of course she didn't have 100 million, and she still owed Pei Yan a large sum of money, but she still had her company and she still had a chance to earn back the money, so she boldly agreed to it now.
The old master looked at her for a long while, and said with some embarrassment: "This is not about money."
He hesitated for a while, "Do you know how big this place is? It took me half an hour to get here by car! This is a manor developed by Pei's family, and it's a private area. Not to mention whether calling the police would alarm him, this half an hour is enough to move you to another place! What's more, you are a legal couple!"
"Not to mention that this kind of thing won't make a big fuss, even if it gets out, it's still your family affair!"
Lin Man knew all these things, but even if the hope was slim, it was better than doing nothing. She could give up struggling, but what about Ji Ze? If she went out any later, would she never see him again? Ji Ze had helped her so much, and he was locked up by her mother because of her. He had suffered so much harm, and now he was suppressed by Pei Yan.
How could Lin Man just watch him in danger? "I know, but he wants to deal with my friend now. His name is Ji Ze. Do you know him?"
"He is a very good person. He has made a lot of contributions to your hometown Huzhou. The dam was donated by his Ji Group. Please help me. I have important news to tell him. I can't just watch him get framed and go to jail!"
It has nothing to do with love between men and women, it's just about the friendship between two lives, she can't do it!
Lin Man pulled off her bun and took out the contract and the letter to Ji Ze hidden inside. Her soft hair cascaded down, like a trapped goddess, yet with an unyielding tenacity. "You!" The old master was shocked but helpless by Lin Man's actions.
He lowered his voice, "Do you know your identity? You are the legal wife of Pei's kid. Although he has you locked up, he has treated you well. From what I know about him, he must have made some conditions for you. If you want to leave, there is no need to use this method!"
"Do you know! If the truth comes out and Pei Yan knows that you are dealing with him for an outsider, what will he do to you? You can't bear the consequences!" The old master was quick-witted and he quickly realized that this was not something that could be done.
"No, no! I can't help you with this."
"Pei Yan's father, Pei Zhenting, is one of the most powerful figures in the political world and even in China. This is the Pei family's manor. According to regulations, the search here must be reported first. Who should I report it to? As long as it is reported, he will definitely know. You young people are not willing to die, but I, an old man, still want to live a few more years."
No matter what Lin Man said, he refused to agree.
Lin Man said helplessly: "Okay, if you don't help me call the police, you can at least help me find my mother-in-law, right?"
Lin Man took off the earring from her ear and stuffed it into his hand, "A token of love, this is given to me by my mother-in-law. Just tell her that I'm in danger and ask her to come and save me." Lin Man repeated the location of the Pei family's old house to him carefully.
"I'll give you 100 million after the job is done, and I won't pursue the matter of you fooling people with defective products."
"Well... okay, then I'll give it a try." He didn't want to take on this hot potato, but he couldn't resist Lin Man's soft and hard tactics.
Seeing him accept the things, Lin Man finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now she just waited for Pei's mother to come and rescue her...
Her heart was at peace, and her complexion looked much better.
Pei Yan has been very busy recently, leaving home early and returning late every day, but he always comes back on time to accompany her for dinner. He picked up a piece of cake and put it in Lin Man's bowl, "There are a lot of things to do recently, I will try my best to come back to accompany you."
Lin Man looked at the osmanthus cake in the bowl in silence. In fact, she wanted to say that he really didn't need to run so far every day, and she didn't have to see him.
Lin Man followed her sight and looked out the window. The view in front of the French window was very good. Endless roses were scattered all over the hilltops, and the pleasant fragrance flowed into her nose along the wind. To be fair, this place was really beautiful and met all of Lin Man’s expectations for his later years.
A hilltop with pleasant scenery, no worries about food and drink, and someone to take care of your health.
But the only difference is that Pei Yan was not in her expectations...
"Pei Yan." Lin Man said calmly. He looked up and said, "You come back every day. It takes a long time to drive, right?"
"Whatever you want to ask, just say it." He glanced at me with a sarcastic look.
Lin Man: “…” As if she hadn’t said it, he wouldn’t tell her even if she asked.
After lunch, Pei Yan went back to the study upstairs to deal with some things. He has been very busy recently, busier than ever before. Lin Man was a little nervous, wondering if he was busy dealing with Ji Ze.
She walked out the door and saw a figure standing in the rose bushes from afar. It was familiar yet strange. It was Han Ming. Lin Man walked over and greeted him with a chuckle, "Mr. Han, do you like roses too?"
Han Ming, who was originally staring at the flowers in a trance, withdrew his thoughts. His expression remained calm and he maintained a good sense of distance. "It's just that seeing the flowers reminds me of people." He concealed the expression in his eyes and asked, "Madam, is there anything wrong?"
"Yes, there was some misunderstanding last time. I have always wanted to apologize to Mr. Han in person, but I didn't expect that you would be implicated because of this."
Lin Man looked so sincere that Han Ming wanted to laugh, but he was born with a cold face and even his voice was icy. His hand passed over a rose in full bloom. "Didn't the Madam tell Mr. Pei that I was suspected of flirting with you last time, so I was implicated?"
"Of course not. What happened last time was a misunderstanding. If it has caused trouble to Mr. Han, I am willing to explain."
Lin Man's tone was calm and his eyes were sincere, but his heart was already in turmoil. Logically speaking... he shouldn't have heard it from his position at that time.
"Madam, I'm not deaf." Han Ming said lightly. His hearing was professionally trained and was better than that of normal people.
Lin Man was not embarrassed at all when her thoughts were exposed. She continued to talk, "How long does it take for Mr. Han to get here by car? Why don't you wait for Pei Yan at the door?"
This place is remote, and if we don't need to worry about traffic jams, assuming the speed limit is 80 kilometers per hour, then 30 minutes is half an hour, and we still have to drive 40 kilometers...
Just as Lin Man was deep in thought, Han Ming chuckled and spoke in a cool voice, "Because President Pei will come to see me."
He said as he nodded respectfully behind Lin Man, "Boss Pei."
Lin Man's body stiffened.
"If you want to know how long it takes to drive here, why don't you ask me?"
His thin lips curled up slightly, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his black eyes.
Han Ming: "Boss Pei, I'll wait for you in the car."
Pei Yan nodded slightly, his eyes showing aloofness and coldness. Only when facing Lin Man did he feel a slight throbbing.
Lin Man felt guilty when she saw his eyes, "I was just asking casually." She turned around and was about to go back, but her wrist was grabbed by Pei Yan. The next moment, Pei Yan kissed her in broad daylight. Just when Lin Man was about to suffocate, he let go. Lin Man felt pain and wanted to push him away but couldn't.
When I was annoyed, I heard Pei Yan say: "This is a mountain road. If you don't know the specific route, it's hard to calculate the location. Forget it."
Pei Yan's voice made Lin Man unable to stop being annoyed, "Are you going to drive me crazy?"
"Give me a child and I'll let you out."
Pei Yan walked further and further away, Lin Man took off the bracelet and threw it at his back! "Unless you die!"
She would never give birth to any child for Pei Yan! There would never be such a day.
forever...
Perhaps it was because Lin Man knew that Pei's mother would come to rescue her immediately after receiving the message she had passed on, so Lin Man was particularly confident now, and she was finally going to leave here.
soon...
