Chapter 52 The Handwriting on the Letter

"What's wrong? Is the food not to your liking?"

Hearing the sound, Ye Jieman came back to her senses, turned her head to look at Pei Yaoyuan who was beside her who was concerned, and forced a smile and shook her head: "No, it's just that I'm not feeling well and I don't have much appetite." Putting down the chopsticks in his hand, he nodded apologetically to the rest of the people at the dinner table, "I'm sorry, please take your time, I'm full, I'll go back to my room to rest first."

With that said, Ye Jieman straightened up, ready to leave.

"Wait first." Pei Yaoyun suddenly called Ye Jieman, and then said to Pei Yaoyun who was not far away, "Brother, I've almost finished eating, let's take the fourth sibling back first."

Pei Yaoyun frowned upon hearing the words, glanced at Pei Yaoyuan who was standing up after him, and finally did not refuse, nodded: "Got it."

As the setting sun fell, there were still a few rays of sunlight left in the dim yellow evening, spreading on the gray ground, slightly warming the icy color.Not long after walking out of the room, Ye Jieman looked at Pei Yaoyuan who was beside him, and said softly, "Third Brother, please trouble me. I'm fine, don't worry."

Pei Yaoyuan nodded slightly, Fang Wen said: "I see that you look like you are hiding your thoughts at the dinner table, but what problems did you encounter?"

Ye Jieman shook his head and did not speak.Pei Yaoyuan wisely didn't ask any more questions, but picked up the topic casually and said, "When you come out of Pei's mansion this time, you should relax. I see that your face is not very good, you must take good care of yourself."

"Yes, I will. Thank you, third brother, for your concern." Ye Jieman's chest warmed slightly, and she nodded to Pei Yaoyuan to thank him.

Pei Yaoyuan smiled indifferently, and then said: "I heard that father and mother have also left the west of the city, and they should be able to arrive at Ji's mansion in a few days."

"Really?" Ye Jieman was slightly startled in her heart, but she didn't show any clues on her face, only a little anxious secretly.If Mr. Pei and Mrs. Pei come over, things will be much more difficult.

Pei Yaoyuan caught a glimpse of Ye Jieman's expression and didn't think much about it. He only thought that she was afraid of Mrs. Pei, and comforted her: "Don't worry, you are outside now, mother won't make things difficult for you."

"Well," Ye Jieman nodded absently, suddenly thought of something, raised her head to look at Pei Yaoyuan, "By the way, are you familiar with Miss Ji?"

"Fortunately, we met each other often when I was a child. Later, when she grew up, she seldom went out, and only met Uncle Ji during the holidays. What's the matter?"

"There are a lot of rumors about Ms. Ji in Suzhou City, and I can't help being curious." Ye Jieman paused for a moment, and Ji Xiwu, who was quietly lying in the coffin of the mourning hall, appeared in his mind, and his words were a little careless, "She is in the eyes of others. , what kind of person is he..."

Pei Yaoyuan was silent for a while, as if he was thinking about his words, and said for a moment: "Ji Xiwu's words are very decent in dealing with people. Every time I see her, she looks calm and generous. I have never seen her lose her composure. But sometimes when I think about it, I would feel that such a person is a bit unfathomable. I remember that once on the birthday of Mr. Ji, I accidentally bumped into her on the road and was drunk and harassed by a young man who came to pay his respects. Ji Xiwu's face was as calm as ever when he hugged her tightly. This situation made me feel startled, and I subconsciously wanted to stand up. But then Ji Xiwu's guards appeared in time and pulled the young man down. The man It seemed that he was very drunk, and he uttered some nasty obscene words after falling to the ground. Ji Xiwu calmly stopped the guard who wanted to beat someone up, and waited until the other party finished speaking before lowering his eyes. Glancing at him, he left without saying anything. Then..." Pei Yaoyuan's eyes shook slightly, and his tone was a bit complicated, "About half a month later, that young master contracted an unclean disease while hanging out in the brothel. Rumors spread in the market. I always feel that Ji Xiwu is inseparable from that person's accident...but in the end it's just my own guess."

Hearing what Pei Yaoyuan said, Ye Jieman couldn't help feeling a little angry at the beginning, but at the end, her back shivered secretly, and at the same time she couldn't laugh or cry.This is indeed like Ji Xiwu's style, if offended, there will be no good fruit to eat.Ye Jieman thought for a while, and then asked: "I'm just curious, what is the relationship between the Ji family and the Pei family?"

Hearing Ye Jieman's question, Pei Yaoyuan looked at her in surprise, and after pondering for a while, Fang lowered his voice and replied: "How should I put it... The relationship between businessmen is difficult to define simply, and it is mostly the interests that maintain it." What's more, the Ji family's family business is not something that the Pei family can match. Although it will not be embarrassing on the surface, everyone knows that the status is not equal. Not only the Pei family, but also other businesses in Suzhou City want to sell Ji. It’s just that no matter how they fight in secret, everyone seems to be in harmony, and rarely breaks their faces. It can only be said that shopping malls have no permanent friends or permanent enemies.”

"But the Ji family deals in tea, and the Pei family deals in rouge and gouache. The two have nothing to do with each other. Shouldn't there be no conflicts of interest?"

Pei Yaoyuan shook his head with a smile, and explained: "It's not that simple. Suzhou is rich in tea, and now the Ji family is the only one. It can be said to be an attractive piece of fat. Everyone wants to taste it. But Ji Shinan is a Shrewd master, everyone can't take advantage of it. But he is old and his health is getting worse day by day, so there are naturally more people who covet him. Besides, since they are all doing business in Suzhou City, there will inevitably be some conflicts of interest." Said Then, Pei Yaoyuan sighed, "You are also considered the Pei family, so it's okay to tell you. To tell you the truth, both the Pei family and the Xu family have been suppressed by the Ji family. For example, a few years ago, Ji Shinan started working on To expand the business of the Ji family, they used their strong financial resources to snatch a good location that the Pei family originally intended to buy, and built a restaurant. The business is very hot. Similar things have happened a few times, and generally everyone can only smash their teeth into their stomachs Tun, I can't help the Ji family."

"I see," Ye Jieman pursed her lips, gaining a new understanding of the infighting in the mall.She looked a little pensive, "Then do you know anyone in the Pei family who is closer to Miss Ji?"

"Dance with Ji Xi?" Pei Yaoyuan repeated, thought for a while, then shook his head at Ye Jieman, "I don't seem to have heard of it, basically it's just a courteous friendship in the mall. Generally speaking, between businessmen The private relationship with female relatives will be a little better, but Ji Xiwu always gives me a kind of... Well, it seems to be friendly and polite, but also has an inexplicable alienation feeling. I have never heard of any lady she is particularly close to, the second sister I also said that I think Ji Xiwu can't see through. Maybe it's because it's too perfect, but it makes people feel unreal."

Ye Jieman nodded in agreement, and became more and more confused about who wrote the letter.Ning Xin said that Master Ji told Ji Xiwu about the matter, could it be related to the business affairs of the two families?

While he was meditating, Ye Jieman's courtyard was already in front of him.Pei Yaoyuan stopped and said goodbye, "Go in and have a good rest. If you need anything, come and find me."

After saying that, he was about to turn around, but was stopped by Ye Jieman.

"Third brother, do you have time to come in and sit down for a while?" Ye Jieman looked up at Pei Yaoyuan, with determination in his eyes, and said, "Jieman still has something to ask."

Pei Yaoyuan was a little surprised when he heard the words, he pondered for a while, but did not refuse, and followed Ye Jieman into the courtyard.

"Shu'er, can you get some ink for me? I can use it."

After ordering Shu'er, Ye Jieman led Pei Yaoyuan into the room, motioned him to sit down, poured a cup of tea and handed it over: "Third Brother, wait a moment, drink first."

Although Pei Yaoyuan felt strange, he sat down patiently, bowed his head and took a sip of tea, looked up at Ye Jieman's room, and was about to speak, when suddenly he felt a gust of cold wind behind his neck, which made him shiver, and couldn't help it Shrunk his head.

Ye Jieman, who was looking at Pei Yaoyuan, tightened his pupils, and saw a white shadow quietly appearing behind Pei Yaoyuan.Ye Jieman took a deep breath, and looked at Ji Xiwu without blinking. The latter's red eyes were deep, and his gaze swept over, with the intention of probing.

"What's the matter?" Pei Yaoyuan raised his head and saw Ye Jieman's gaze behind him, and looked back suspiciously, but his gaze penetrated Ji Xiwu's club you, and all he saw was a void.He turned his head after noticing anything unusual, saw that Ye Jieman had looked at him again, and shook his head with a smile as if nothing had happened: "It's nothing."

Pei Yaoyuan felt a little strange in his heart, but he didn't find any abnormality, and he didn't take it to heart, he just said: "But you asked me to come in, what do you want to ask me?"

"I'll ask again when the pen and paper come." Ye Jieman said, glanced at Ji Xiwu from the corner of the eye, and saw the thoughtful eyes of the other party kept falling on her, knowing that Ji Xiwu might have guessed what she wanted What to do, but his face was calm and he didn't show any thoughts, and he didn't speak, let alone stop him.Ye Jieman couldn't figure out what Ji Xiwu was thinking, so she simply stopped thinking about it and made a secret decision in her heart.

Not long after, Shu'er and An'er came back with a pen and paper.Ye Jieman looked away, took the pen and paper and put them on the table, spread out the paper in his hand, rubbed the ink with Pei Yaoyuan's puzzled expression, and paused for a while while picking up the pen, with a look of memory in his eyes, Then put down the pen.

On the clean white paper, the word "Pei" soon appeared.The strokes are horizontal and slender, with a slightly sharp momentum.

After finishing writing, Ye Jieman saw that there was a seven-point shape similar to the one on the envelope before, so she looked up at Pei Yaoyuan and said, "Third brother, do you recognize this similar handwriting?"

Before Pei Yaoyuan could speak, An'er on the side looked at it for a while, and suddenly said in surprise, "Huh? Why does this sound like the name of the young master?"

The moment she heard An'er's words, Ye Jieman's writing hand trembled, and she raised her head to look at An'er. The thick ink in her hand immediately spilled, and a large amount of ink splashed on the white paper, and she didn't care about it. , only lost his voice: "Master? You mean Pei Yaoxu?"

"Well... yes, it's really a bit similar." After speaking, An'er turned to look at Shu'er, "Sister Shu, isn't it?"

Shu'er lowered her eyes and kept looking at the words on the paper. After hearing An'er's question, she raised her head and glanced at her, and then her eyes fell on Pei Yaoyuan who was sitting on the seat.Seeing that Shu'er did not refute, Ye Jieman felt even more strange, and subconsciously looked at Pei Yaoyuan who had raised his head.I saw the surprised expression on the brows of the other party, and nodded in her shocked expression: "It is indeed somewhat similar to the fourth brother's, but...why do you ask this?"

Seeing that Pei Yaoyuan echoed An'er's words, Ye Jieman's face turned pale, and she suddenly felt a little stagnant in breathing.She didn't answer Pei Yaoyuan's words, but turned her head stiffly, and met Ji Xiwu's deep gaze behind Pei Yaoyuan, the expression in her eyes was surging like a wave.

Why... is it a letter from Pei Yaoxu?

Behind him, Ji Xiwu's red eyes seemed to be flickering, and he looked straight at the pale Ye Jieman. Under the unbelievable gaze of the other party, the corners of his lips suddenly raised slightly.
