After a tragic death and rebirth, the iceberg president turned crazy
Chapter 297 Breaking up with Ji Ze
Pei Yan was still holding the newspaper in his hand. When he heard the voice, he looked at Lin Man with a look that was filled with unspeakable meaning. He seemed to want to say something, but in the end he didn't speak.
Lin Man only glanced at Pei Yan and then looked away. She had no interest in considering what Pei Yan was thinking. She walked to the dining table and sat down. She picked up the spoon and drank a mouthful of porridge. The warm food filled her stomach and gradually restored some of Lin Man's lost strength. "Does what you promised me last night still count?"
Pei Yan's dark eyes were fixed on Lin Man. It would be a lie to say he was not surprised by her calm reaction. He originally thought that this woman would have a big quarrel with him and had made preparations to deal with it, but now all of them became empty words.
"Of course, what I promised you will always count."
Lin Man drank another mouthful of porridge and said, "Then please take action as soon as possible, Mr. Pei, and don't be polite in public and try to block the news in secret."
Lin Man's words made Pei Yan's face suddenly darken.
"You slept with me just for Ji Ze?"
Lin Man frowned slightly, not understanding why Pei Yan was so crazy again? He had obviously forced her, and now he was saying these high-sounding words. She didn't want Ji Ze to be implicated because of her, but she would never compromise with Pei Yan because of this matter.
"If I say no, can you let me out?" Lin Man looked at Pei Yan and asked sincerely.
She was not doing this for Ji Ze at all. She did not have that kind of feelings towards Ji Ze. She just felt that she owed Ji Ze a lot and did not want to implicate him...especially since Ji Group had gone bankrupt.
In this life, although many things have changed, it seems that many things are still moving in the same direction as before. Lin Man feels uneasy. She cannot stay here, otherwise she will forget the pain after the wound has healed...
Pei Yan chuckled and answered himself: "Even if you did it for Ji Ze, so what? Now you are with me, and he doesn't have the ability to take you away from me. That's enough."
He glanced at Lin Man and turned away.
Lin Man's eyes were stunned. She stood there for a long time. Did Pei Yan hear what she was saying? She had said a hundred times that she was not doing this for Ji Ze! Didn't he understand?
Watching Pei Yan's back as he left, Lin Man picked up the tissue box on the table and threw it at him, "Pei Yan! You've slept, and you've gotten what you deserve! You've locked me up for half a year, what's going to happen to my career?"
The tissue box didn't even touch the corner of Pei Yan's clothes, and fell to the ground halfway. He slowly turned around and said, "Your most important career now is to give birth to a child for me. After your confinement is over, I will make up for your career for you."
Pei Yan did not take Lin Man's words seriously. He was a businessman and he knew the goings-on in the entertainment industry best. As long as there was investment and the directors and producers received benefits, there was nothing wrong with talking. After she gave birth to the child and he had completely given up the idea of leaving, Pei Yan would give her all these things.
Lin Man felt as powerless as if he was punching cotton.
She sat back on the sofa. The TV was no longer limited to just a few programs, and Pei Yan no longer controlled her contact with the outside world.
Suddenly, a familiar figure flashed by, and Lin Man's eyes moved. Liu Lin stood behind her and explained: "Madam, President Pei has lifted the arrest warrant for Mr. Ji, and he can now enter the country normally."
Ji Ze stood at the entrance of the entrance hall. In front of him were many media who were interviewing him. "Mr. Ji, it is well known that Ji Group is your hard work. In order to maintain the turnover of Ji Group, you worked overtime many times until the early morning. Even the financial crisis many years ago did not make you give up. So what made you file for bankruptcy against Ji Group?"
Lin Man suddenly stood up. She looked carefully at Ji Ze in the camera. His face was as handsome as ever, but now he looked a little tired. He spoke in a calm tone and kept looking at the camera, as if he wanted to spy on someone through it.
"For one person, I want to give her a peaceful life and don't want her to get hurt again."
Lin Man suddenly felt a sour feeling in her heart. It was only a week, but when she heard Ji Ze's voice again, it felt like a lifetime ago. It was familiar yet strange. "Liu Lin, turn off the TV."
"Yes."
Liu Lin found the remote control and was about to turn it off when a deep voice rang out, "Keep playing."
Pei Yan's voice made Lin Man turn her head.
He had deep eyes, was dressed in black, and said nothing.
"Pei Yan, are you suffering from any kind of stress trauma? You clearly care about me and Ji Ze to death, but now you insist on making me watch it in front of you. You shouldn't be standing here watching TV. You should go see a doctor. It's boring."
No matter what tricks Pei Yan was going to play, Lin Man didn't want to play along. She was about to get up and leave when the voice on the TV suddenly increased. "Mr. Ji, who are you talking about?"
"She was my girlfriend. In my heart, I had already regarded her as my fiancée. She was taken away and there is no news of her. I know who took her away but I can't do anything. But I came back today and I will not give up. Whoever stops me is my enemy."
Ji Ze's voice made Lin Man turn around suddenly. She looked at the familiar figure on TV, feeling complicated...
Pei Yan turned off the TV, and the living room finally quieted down. "Did you hear everything?"
"Lin Man, I will be responsible for your promise, but I will also be responsible for all the shareholders of Pei Corporation. If this cannot be avoided, I am afraid that what I promised you will be invalid."
Pei Yan did it on purpose...
Lin Man knew clearly in her heart that this man was still as cunning as ever. Lin Man thought that Pei Yan was really willing to let Ji Ze enter the country. Wasn't he just trying to get her to say it in person so that Ji Ze would give up?
"Pei Yan, I underestimated you. In fact, if Pei Group goes bankrupt, you can be a director instead of a gigolo. You can star in the movie with your team, and I will give you a movie ticket."
No way, if that day really comes, Lin Man will just put on the arrogant attitude of a consumer and make things difficult for Pei Yan!
Lin Man stretched out her hand, "Lend me your phone."
Pei Yan took in Lin Man's reaction. He narrowed his eyes slightly and softened his tone. "What do you want to do?"
"Clarify, okay?"
Lin Man didn't know how Gan Tian was dealing with Jiang Xuzhi and Pei Yan, but she was very tired. Even though she had been freed by Pei Yan and there was no hope of escape, she was still thinking about her pitiful career and the company that owed Pei Yan billions. She didn't want to ruin her reputation, so... could she go and clarify?
Pei Yan's cell phone was a custom-made one. It was very heavy and complicated. Lin Man almost couldn't hold it for a moment. It was a false alarm, so she had to hold it with both hands.
Pei Yan didn't say a word from beginning to end. He sat on the sofa and looked at Lin Man quietly.
Lin Man ignored Pei Yan and found the address book, where she discovered many of Ji Ze's numbers. It turned out that Ji Ze had more than one number, but Lin Man was relieved after just a thought. People like them would not have only one mobile phone number, even for the convenience of work.
Lin Man dialed Ji Ze's cell phone and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. She drew open the curtains and saw a scene of dead trees coming back to life in spring.
When the call was connected, Ji Ze's lazy voice had a hint of fatigue. He said, "A Yan, you finally contacted me..."
The familiar voice made Lin Man feel as if she were in another world. She really thought that if she and Ji Ze had left that time and successfully left Hai City together and went to another country, they might really have a future.
Although there is no love, her heart will be at peace. Unfortunately, there is no if in everything.
"Jize, it's me, are you okay?"
As soon as Lin Man's voice came out, the phone fell silent. Suddenly, there was a sound of clenched fists and accelerated heartbeats. Ji Ze was so shocked that he seemed unable to speak, and his voice was trembling.
"Manman, is it really you? Did I hear you right? You're back... You're finally back."
But then his voice became sharp, "This is A Yan's phone... You were taken away by him! Man Man, tell me where you are and I will come to find you right away. Don't be afraid, I will take you away."
As soon as Ji Ze finished speaking, a sneer suddenly came from behind Lin Man. Lin Man was speechless. She didn't even need to look back to imagine Pei Yan's sarcastic expression.
He just sat upright on the sofa, his dark eyes calm and indifferent, as if he had never worried about what Lin Man would say. Was it because Pei Yan was confident that no one could take the person away from him?
Lin Man retracted her gaze and gently swept her fingers over the pistil, "Ji Ze, I called you to tell you this. Don't contact me again. Pei Yan and I are husband and wife. We already live together. It will be very difficult for me to do anything if you openly say something like that in front of the media."
"Manman?" Ji Ze's tone seemed to be filled with endless disbelief. He couldn't believe that these words came from Lin Man's mouth, but then he said with relief: "Manman, was it A Yan who was by your side controlling you to say these words? Was he not nice to you? Did he fight with you?"
As he spoke, Ji Ze began to call Pei Yan's name on the phone.
Lin Man's heart tightened. She reached out to cover the receiver and lowered Ji Ze's voice. "No, Pei Yan is not with me. He is in the living room. We were just watching TV together. I called you because I saw your comments in the mirror hall."
"Jize, I admit that when you said you wanted to take me away that day, I was really moved, but the fact is that we are not destined to be together, and you don't have the ability to protect me."
"I don't know why, but I feel annoyed when I see Jiang Xuzhi, so I want to stay with Pei Yan. I feel at ease with him around. Please let go. Have you ever thought about how difficult it will be for me to deal with my husband like this?"
She knew that Ji Ze could understand what she meant, so they should just let it go. From the beginning to the end, she and Ji Ze had no destiny, and love was something that could not be forced.
Just like her and Pei Yan, you can tell at first glance that they are destined to be together, and they will be tied together for various reasons for generations to come.
Before Ji Ze could speak, Lin Man had already hung up the phone. He took Pei Yan's phone, opened the address book, found Gan Tian's name, sent her a message, and then quickly turned off the phone screen.
As soon as she turned around, Lin Man covered her chest with shock, and saw Pei Yan suddenly standing behind her, with a cold gaze, "Are you really moved?"
There was a hint of sarcasm on his lips, and Lin Man did not explain. Anyway, Pei Yan had already taken advantage of her, so what other tricks could he have to punish her?
"your phone."
Lin Man handed over the phone.
Pei Yan stared at Lin Man's fair and slender wrist, his Adam's apple moved. He just stretched out his hand, and the next moment, Lin Man suddenly raised her hand and threw the phone into the fish pond next to her.
The heavy object fell and hit the water, creating a splash. The big carps swam around in the water, and a few stupid ones even bumped into each other. "How stupid."
After Lin Man made some indirect accusations, she clapped her hands, walked to the refrigerator, took out a bottle of milk and drank it.
Pei Yan looked at her with dark eyes without saying a word.
Lin Man was too lazy to pay attention to Pei Yan. She pulled many roses from the window, put them in vases one by one, and trimmed the branches. The flowers were beautiful, but to Lin Man, they lacked some spirit. They were not roses native to the place, but were watered in the greenhouse and then airlifted in by plane.
After one crop withers, another crop will grow.
So even in such cold weather, the blooming flowers are still so gorgeous. Lin Man looked at the boring scenery outside the manor. She was amazed at first glance, but she didn't know what was wrong with Pei Yan. The whole yard was full of roses, and there wasn't even a tree.
Lin Man lost the mood to continue arranging flowers.
After turning around and going upstairs, she looked at Pei Yan's phone in the study, which was intact and quietly placed on the table. She was a little surprised, "Pei Yan changed his phone so soon?"
Liu Lin glanced at the table, lowered her eyes and said, "Madam, this was picked up from the fish pond. My husband's phone has too many important files, so the phone is customized, drop-proof and waterproof, and he doesn't change phones easily."
Lin Man was speechless. "Really? Such an amazing phone."
"There are some uneaten walnuts on the living room table. Bring them to me."
Although Liu Lin was puzzled, she still said, "Yes."
She came back quickly and handed the tray to Lin Man, who picked up Pei Yan's cell phone and smashed it hard at the walnut kernel!
Liu Lin was shocked, "Madam! Please don't..."
"Bang!"
As the walnut kernel broke, Lin Man picked up a piece and put it into her mouth, closing her eyes and feeling the sweetness in her mouth. She didn't expect that this sound could make her feel so comfortable.
"Madam! No! This is President Pei..."
"Shhh."
"Isn't it a fall-proof device? I'm just trying it out, you go down."
Liu Lin turned and left. Lin Man knew that she was going to find Pei Yan, but she did not stop her.
When Pei Yan came in, Lin Man had already smashed the table.
He watched Lin Man look at the phone with only a little damage on the shell and make a regretful expression. Then he gathered the walnuts on the table with his hands, put them on a tray and handed it to Pei Yan.
"Mr. Pei, would you like some walnuts? They are good for your brain."
Pei Yan lowered his eyes and looked at Lin Man. Suddenly, his dark eyes chuckled. Without even looking at the damaged phone, he took out a walnut kernel from Lin Man's tray and chewed it twice.
The next second, Lin Man's waist tightened, her jaw was controlled, and Pei Yan suddenly kissed her, passing everything in his mouth to her.
Lin Man's eyes widened, and she struggled frantically but was unable to move. Suddenly, the next second, her body flew into the air and fell onto the sofa in the study.
