Chapter 567 Conflict of Interest

Pei Zhi's silence chilled qiao ning's heart. She thought she lived in the purest relationship. There was no interest, no deception. It turned out that everything was just her delusion. Where there were people, there were fights, and where there were fights, there were interests.

"Qiao Ning, Pei Yu really loves Li Minxian. He told me that he had never loved anyone so much. So..."

"So, while satisfying his private feelings, it can bring the greatest benefits to your family. Why not?" Qiao Ning interrupted him with a bitter smile.

Pei Zhi frowned and said after a while, "It's up to you whether you want to help or not, but Li Chengyan insisted on opposing it, not entirely for his sister's sake. He has his own interests to consider, and Li Minxian..."

"None of you care what she thinks." Qiao Ning smiled bitterly and said, "What you're saying to me now is just to put pressure on me and let me help you. But you've never thought about what she thinks, what she wants, and her needs. They don't matter to you."

"Of course not." Pei Yu said anxiously, "I must be concerned about Minxian's thoughts. Family interests are not important to me. They have never been more important than Minxian. I can feel that Minxian likes me. However, she still refuses to admit it. As long as she has time, she can know her true feelings. We can be together and be good with our families. This is killing two birds with one stone."

"Oh, kill two birds with one stone? Your gains and losses! Do you think any feelings mixed with other things can be pure and flawless? I'm sorry, I can't help you with this. If you really want to pursue Minxian, you can rely on yourself! There's nothing else I can do." Qiao Ning sneered and refused firmly.

"Qiao Ning." Pei yu shouted angrily.

Pei Zhi scolded him, took a deep breath and said to Qiao Ning, "Ning, I know. I won't make things difficult for you. After all, you and Li Chengyan are husband and wife, and you are one. I understand."

"You don't understand." Qiao Ning said, "I won't help you, but I don't agree with him. He lied to me. He said it for Minxian's happiness, but he mixed it with other things. What's the difference between him and you? I don't understand the fight over these things. All I know is that Li Minxian is my sister-in-law. She's a simple and kind girl. She deserves to be happy, not a bargaining chip for you to consider the pros and cons."

After that, qiao ning stood up and left.

Pei Zhi immediately said, "I'll see you off."

Qiao Ning said, "No need. I'll go by myself."

Then he opened the door and walked out.

Pei Zhi frowned and sat back on the sofa with a sigh.

Pei yu looked at Pei Zhi with a sad face and said, "Brother, what should I do? She won't help. Li Chengyan is now defending against me like a thief, and I can only use Mrs. Li once. Minxian's freedom and happiness are ultimately up to Li Chengyan."

"Don't make things difficult for Qiao Ning. Li Chengyan is her husband, her favorite person. What do you want her to do? Help us? I don't want to affect their relationship either," Pei Zhi said slowly.

Pei yu snorted coldly, "What is this Li Chengyan thinking? Is our family bound to lose in this line? He actually stopped me and minxian at this time, obviously..."

"It's obviously the smartest move," Pei Zhi said.

"Ah?" Pei Yu was surprised.

Pei Zhi snorted coldly, "If I were Li Chengyan, I would do the same. It's not good for their Li Family to choose to stand in line at this time. Letting you be with Li Minxian will only put the li family at the forefront of the storm. But when things are over, I'll let you and Li Minxian be together. By that time, the Li Family has the ability to compete with our Pei Family, and we can also take it to the next level."

"Che, equal ability? How could it be? Our old man earned this family business through birth and death back then. How could their Li Family's half-baked goods compare to ours?" Pei Yu sneered.

Pei Zhi said coldly, "This is what makes Li Chengyan so powerful. The two people he let in are really powerful. In just a few years, they have risen so fast. It was said that the army had also sent in a nephew of the Li Family. Although he was now a company commander, he was favored by commander yuan and might become a son-in-law. Marrying the yuan family, the future development of the Li Family could not be underestimated. We can't just sit back and eat up the glory of the past. You see, there are still a few successful people in our family. You and I are not in business, and only our eldest brother and the others are active in politics. Look at you, you are not doing business, and you are not in politics. It's all like you. Our family is not as glorious as the Li Family."

"All right, all right, stop teaching me. There are so many people in the family. I'm not much more than one. I'm a lot less."

"When things calm down, Li Chengyan will let you and Li Minxian be together without any loss to him. But agreeing now will only cause the Li Family to suffer a storm first, so I say his decision is right. But from the opposite perspective, I want to break his plan."

"Then isn't he afraid that our family won't agree to marry him when things calm down?" Pei yu snorted coldly.

Pei Zhi looked at him amusedly and asked, "Will you not agree?"

Pei Yu: ..."

The corners of her mouth twitched, and her face became even uglier.

Pei Zhi smiled again and asked, "If our family strongly opposes it, will you listen to our family and not date her?"

"Of course not. What I said is true. I really like her. I've never liked a girl so much, so this time I will insist. No one can stop me." Pei Yu said solemnly.

Pei Zhi sighed, "So, Li Chengyan thought about what you were thinking. If the flowers bloom, the butterflies will come. He's not afraid that you will give up. Since he knows you won't give up, it's no good to maximize your profits now. He's smarter than you are in this plan."

"Profiteer, as expected, no business without profiteer." Pei yu scolded angrily.

But unknowingly, he cursed Pei Zhi too.

Pei Zhi shook his head helplessly, not caring about him.

He picked up his glass and took a sip. He was thinking about how Qiao Ning would face Li Chengyan if he knew this. Could it be that there was a real dispute with Li Chengyan over this matter that affected their relationship?

If that's the case, he's really guilty.

After all, qiao ning was the most innocent and the least implicated person in this incident.
