"It seems quite tempting."
Dongfang Yi’s heart suddenly raced. For over two decades, it was the first ti she clearly heard her heart beat so fast, almost beyond her control.
"Mr. Pei should have heard the rumors too. The election is coming soon, and my father is the strongest candidate. Marrying , do you know what that would an?"
Dongfang Yi smiled confidently, as if victory was already in sight.
"Prince Consort?" Pei Qinghan smirked playfully.
Looking at his handso and gentle profile, Dongfang Yi said with a smile, "Not just that, whatever you want to achieve, I will help you accomplish...."
With that, I don’t believe you won’t be moved.
Ji Yunya is already Yan Song’s fiancée, their love as strong as gold. He no longer has a chance. No man would be so foolish as to wait bitterly for a woman who doesn’t love him. She’s offering such a big bait that no man would refuse, but this man... she couldn’t be sure...
"Actually, before my aunt died, she had a last wish." Pei Qinghan suddenly looked at Dongfang Yi, his indifferent eyes like a deep ancient well, captivating her entire mind.
"My aunt wished for to marry you; otherwise, she said she would die with regrets. She devoted her life to reviving the Pei Family, even at the cost of her life." Pei Qinghan turned his head to look at her.
Putting everything else aside, Dongfang Yi is indeed an excellent choice for a wife. Exquisite appearance, graceful deanor, a good family background, and most importantly, she can help a man’s career. This indeed is a huge temptation. Facing a woman like her, many n would probably throw themselves at her feet.
For the first ti, Dongfang Yi saw her own reflection clearly in his eyes, a feeling she had never experienced before.
Regarding Yan Song, she just felt that this man was worthy of her. Her sense of superiority didn’t allow her to lower herself to chase after him, even watching from the sidelines as other won fought over him. She rely sneered, laughing at their stupidity.
But at this mont, she suddenly had an urge. To have her image etched in his eyes, even for a mont, she would be willing to fly into the fla like a moth, blissfully unaware of the danger.
She finally understood what spirit it was to plunge forward for love, foolish and naive but the purest and cleanest emotion in the world.
"You see, our union will be blessed by everyone, the Pei Family revived, and you will have no more barriers on your path to success. What are you still hesitating for?"
Her gentle whisper was like a soft dream.
She gave him ti to think it over, and once decided, there would be no turning back.
"I don’t mind if you have soone in your heart, but you should let yourself go. She has found her happiness and no longer needs you. Why tornt yourself for soone who doesn’t love you?"
"You know, I really feel sorry for you...."
The woman’s gentle murmur seeped into the heart like a soft breeze, dismantling the hard walls of a man’s heart.
——
A military jeep stord into the Yan Family’s gate, and the gatekeeper did not dare to slack off, recognizing it as Young Master Song’s exclusive vehicle.
Yan Song opened the door and descended, striding quickly inside.
He was carrying a beautifully wrapped box, a gentle smile on his handso face, as bright and dazzling as the sunlight streaming through the window.
"Yun Ya."
He called out.
Ah Yun was tidying Yun Ya’s calligraphy papers. Hearing him, she looked up and was pleasantly surprised to see the approaching man: "Young Master Yan has returned."
Yan Song’s gaze swept the room, not finding Yun Ya’s figure, he frowned: "Where is Yun Ya?"
Ah Yun replied: "Miss was invited to the Pei Family."
"Pei Family?" Yan Song frowned deeper.
This made him think of Pei Qinghan.
Ah Yun was afraid Yan Song would misunderstand, so she quickly explained: "It was Old Master Pei who invited Miss, saying he admired Miss’s dical skills and asked her to check his pulse. Because he ntioned Fourth Lady, Miss couldn’t refuse and went. She also inford Third Lady before leaving."
Yan Song turned and left, taking two steps, he handed her the box: "Keep it safe."
Ah Yun received it with trepidation. The box was beautifully wrapped, clearly valuable. Was it a gift from Young Master Yan to Miss?
Yan Song did not linger, leaving the Yan Family, heading straight for the Pei Family.
——
Yun Ya pushed Pei Yu back to the bedroom.
Pei Yu turned on the large TV screen opposite them, revealing the image of the living room.
Yun Ya frowned, watching the two people on the screen, Dongfang Yi’s gentle and affectionate confession, Pei Qinghan’s absent and indifferent profile, forming a sharp contrast.
She hoped Brother Pei could find happiness, but Dongfang Yi... due to their positions, there must be a confrontation. What she most feared was standing on the opposite side from him, becoming enemies.
But if that’s his choice, she may not like it, but she respects it.
Just sighing inwardly, life’s helplessness and unpredictability have finally led to this point.
Pei Yu glanced at her, his eyes complicated: "Girl, tell , how will Qinghan choose?"
On one side is power and beauty, on the other side is a hopeless waiting. For a man, how should he choose?
The answer seems almost certain.
In her heart, she hoped he would choose the forr. His life has been too hard, and since what she couldn’t give him, Dongfang Yi could, he should treat himself better. Even if one day they stand on opposite sides, she would know his heart is surrounded by love, fulfilled and happy.
Although she doesn’t like Dongfang Yi’s many plots, this woman can offer him care and love. After a lifeti of wandering hardship, it’s ti to find a harbor to rest.
"I don’t know, but I respect Brother Pei’s choice." Yun Ya lowered her eyelashes and said softly.
Pei Yu smiled, knowing he guessed right. Qinghan’s feelings for this girl were indeed unusual, but fortunately, this girl had clear priorities.
On the screen, Pei Qinghan suddenly lifted his gaze, his eyes as dark as ink, calm and unfathomable, seemingly piercing straight into one’s heart, mysterious and chilly, able to illuminate darkness and ugliness, leaving nowhere to hide.
Yun Ya instinctively clenched her fist.
Because she realized she was sowhat anxious about Pei Qinghan’s choice.
