Chapter 6: He Deserved to Be Beaten to Death

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Pei Mingchen wanted to be closer to Mu Qiannian, closer…

Just by lying by her side, he felt that the world was as beautiful as this.

However, Pei Mingchen’s hands had once faced the darkness. If she knew about those incidents where he killed without batting an eyelid…

Would she despise his hands for being so dirty?

Pei Mingchen’s thoughts were in a mess. He felt his eyelids grow heavier and he slowly closed his eyes.

The person beside him did not move.. She was the only one who was breathing steadily and sleeping soundly.

The next day. “Ring, ring, ring…” Mu Qiannian’s phone rang and she opened her eyes sleepily.

“Who is this?”

Just as she finished speaking, a furious female voice exploded from the other end of the phone. “We’ve been kind enough to take you in and raise you for so many years. Even if you’re a traitor, you shouldn’t have framed my daughter! Look at how badly you’ve slandered Wanwan! You must pay for this crime!”

Damn it, Mu Wanwan was her daughter, but was Mu Qiannian not her daughter? Why did she have to take the blame?

Xu Li did not expect Mu Qiannian to be so sharp-tongued.

“I advise you to personally clarify this matter for Wanwan and admit publicly that you’re slandering Wanwan. Otherwise, the Mu family won’t let you off.”

“Don’t think that you’ll be any better off without our family. All these years, if it wasn’t our Mu family who raised you, you and your mother, who died early, would have been fed to the dogs long ago! You don’t know how to be grateful. What an ungrateful wretch.”

Hearing these words, Mu Qiannian’s fingers unconsciously curled up slightly.

The hand holding the phone even unceremoniously threw the phone to the side.

“Who are you accusing of slander? Is it because the video isn’t clear enough? Does it need to be super clear? Mu Wanwan’s bad conduct is a fact, and you can’t change it. I must also make her suffer the abuse of tens of thousands of people. This is what your family owes me.”

“I don’t know if my mother is dead or alive. I won’t tolerate your nonsense. Besides, when has the Mu family ever treated me well? Since I was young, they’ve either criticized or humiliated me. As an adoptive mother, you must be very clear in your heart, right?”

Mu Qiannian vented her anger. She thought Xu Li would shut up at this moment, right?

Unexpectedly, the other side paused for a short while and was still aggressive. “How is the person in those videos be Wanwan? She’s such a pure and innocent person! It’s obvious that you’re jealous of Wanwan’s identity, so you deliberately faked it to frame her. How could you do such a thing?”

A few beeps sounded, and it was Mu Qiannian who hung up the phone.

Mu Qiannian was speechless. Xu Li was just an annoying person.

Mu Qiannian opened WeChat and gave a few orders to her subordinates.

“Expand the matter of breaking off the engagement. Also, leak Mu Wanwan’s indecent video. The more the better.”

“Don’t let anyone find out about us. Remember, the uglier the better. They deserve it.”

Pei Mingchen, who was beside her, was a thoughtful person. He could hear Mu Qiannian’s fluctuating emotions and wanted to reach out to comfort her.

His hand stopped in mid-air and retracted abruptly.

Would she be angry if she knew that he was secretly sleeping beside her?

However, the way she scolded and frowned was really cute.

Her cheeks, which looked like they were full of anger, also looked exceptionally rosy.

His Niannian was indeed different. Even when she was angry, she was so serious.

Pei Mingchen moved slowly, wanting to find a more comfortable way to lie down secretly.

“When did you come here?”

Mu Qiannian noticed his presence.

However, she winked at him calmly.

“I, just, just… just…”

Pei Mingchen looked at the pair of big eyes that were right in front of him and suddenly felt a little stuck.

Mu Qiannian did not feel uncomfortable and gently pulled his hand away. “Alright, alright, stop fooling around. I’m getting up.”

As he watched her turn around to wash up, Pei Mingchen felt his heart skip a beat.

It seemed that Niannian did not object to sleeping with him…

Pei Mingchen smiled gently. His eyes were filled with tenderness as he stroked her hair with his fingertips.

Mu Qiannian’s phone suddenly started to vibrate. After the call was connected, her subordinate’s voice could be heard.

“Boss, someone who calls himself Pei He is here to pick you up. Is it convenient for you to meet this person at the front desk?”

The Pei family that abandoned Pei Mingchen?

Mu Qiannian did not have a good impression of them.

“I’ll be a little late.”

Mu Qiannian finished her breakfast leisurely. When she saw Pei Mingchen’s similarly gloomy expression, she could actually guess why.

Pei Mingchen had been abandoned by the Pei family, and they did not care about him. At this moment, the Pei family had rashly come looking for him, who would be in a good mood?

Mu Qiannian’s straight legs stepped on her stilettos. Her blue and purple floral dress perfectly wrapped around her voluptuous figure. Her every frown and smile was like the demeanor of everyone else, yet she was charming and moving.

When she saw the person waiting for her, she saw that he looked like a weak scholar. Mu Qiannian subconsciously frowned. He was far inferior to her Pei Mingchen. How could they be so different when they were both from the Pei family?!

When Pei He saw Mu Qiannian’s appearance, he became more certain and took the lead to welcome her.

Since the person in front of him dared to ruin the Chen family’s wedding banquet, she did not seem like an ordinary foster daughter.

“You must be Mu Qiannian, right? Since you’re here, I’ll let you know that the Eldest Young Miss of the Su family is you. It’s okay if you haven’t seen the world. If you come back with me, someone will teach you whatever’s necessary.”

Su family? Eldest Young Miss?

In Mu Qiannian’s previous life, Mu Wanwan had used her identity to bully her. Mu Wanwan had always been on top of her, making her feel uncomfortable no matter what she did.

However, she felt that Pei He was purely making a subjective judgment of who the real daughter was, without any evidence. Was this the reason why he mistook Mu Wanwan for someone else in her previous life?

“Oh? Really?” Mu Qiannian cried out delicately, but her voice was full of questions.

Pei He was still trying to persuade her, even his tone was much more flattering, “Of course it’s true. As long as you’re obedient, I’ll bring you back to the Su family. Otherwise, the Eldest Young Miss would be someone else.”

“Obedient? Who do you think you are?” Mu Qiannian’s hurried voice suddenly rose, and Pei He was so frightened that he took a step back. Mu Qiannian’s high heels were on his foot. Stepping with a little force, she said, “If the Eldest Miss of the Su family is really me, it should be the Su family picking me up. Why should I listen to you?”

“Please think it over carefully. Your status is not enough!”

After letting go, Mu Qiannian’s cold gaze swept across Pei He’s slightly fearful eyes. She added, “It’s best if you don’t disturb me again. You’ll have to bear the consequences.”

Pei He came to his senses and no longer pretended to be elegant. He raised his eyebrows and shouted sternly, “B*tch! How dare you look down on me?”

Sensing Pei He’s strength, Mu Qiannian turned around and stopped in her tracks. After a strange smile, she kicked Pei He in the vitals, causing him to scream in pain.

Pei He knew that he was not strong enough, so he endured the pain and prepared to leave. Suddenly, his gaze met with an extremely familiar handsome face.

His bad habit of venting his anger flared up again. “Hey, aren’t you the abandoned child that was kicked out by the Chen family? What? The Chen family doesn’t want you, so you came to the Pei family to ask for shelter again?”

Pei Mingchen did not say a word, but the anger that he was holding back crept up to his brows.

Pei Mingchen snapped his fingers.

Soon, his black-shirted subordinates appeared in front of him in an orderly fashion, scaring Pei He so much that his legs were trembling.

“Drag this person to the alley and beat him up.”

“You can continue as long as he doesn’t die.”

Pei Mingchen had nothing to say to Pei He.

However, since Pei He had insulted Niannian, he deserved to be beaten to death!
