Su Zhizhi's face almost instantly lost all its color, and she clenched her fingers with all her strength.
Will it?
It was more possible that she had not thought of this question at all than this hypothesis.
She had never wanted this woman to die before her, nor did she think that the old mistress of the palace would do such a thing.
She just … She only wished that she could disappear from her world with Gong Yan. If that were the case, then she wouldn't … The so called Little Three.
On the way back from the Seabed Restaurant, she had received a call from the old lady from the Palace. She had said that if she wanted to marry into the Palace family, she only needed to do one thing, and then she would do it.
Marry that man... It was something she had never dared to think about.
Since it could come true, why not work hard to make it come true …
Su Zhizhi's lips opened and closed, but she was unable to answer.
Pei Luoyi's gaze, which was filled with a chill, was fixed on the woman's pale face. She laughed for no reason, "It seems like Miss Su has never thought of this question before. Whether she can marry the man I desire, the life and death of others doesn't matter at all." Do you think so too? "
"No!"
The woman almost screamed out a reply. After she finished speaking, she realized that she had overreacted, so she lowered her head in confusion and closed her eyes.
"I... "I never wanted you to die. I just, just …"
Pei Luoyi smiled and changed into a more comfortable position on the sofa. With a cold tone, she said, "You didn't want me to die, but you also didn't want me to die."
"Miss Su, to Gong Yan … I'm afraid it's not love, but sickness? "
He loved her too much, regardless of whether he could get a response or not, regardless of whether the other party was willing or not. As long as he could obtain her, that was enough.
Such feelings... How could it be called love?
Her words were like a short bayonet, stabbing into a woman's heart inch by inch until it finally sank into the hilt, numbed with pain, leaving only embarrassment and anger from being unable to accept being seen through.
"Heh, what do you know?"
"How many years have I loved him, and how many years have you loved him? I watched him walk up to where he was today. Where were you at that time? "Pei Luoyi, don't think that just because you stood by his side today that you would know everything about him. I'm the one who understands him the best, and you don't understand him at all."
The woman seemed to be extremely angry, but Pei Luoyi was too lazy to yawn.
She really didn't want to offend him by speaking to him with such an attitude that only she could match up to that man.
If you can measure how much you know about the world of emotions, then the most suitable person for you to fall in love with … Wasn't that his own mother?
"Also, as long as you have a little self-awareness, Grandpa Gong wouldn't be sent to the emergency room for rescue today. "With your family background, Miss Pei, I believe you know very well that you are not worthy of him."
The content of the second half of her story was limited to Pei Luoyi's ears. Her attention was focused on the matter of the Old Master Gong entering the emergency room to rescue her.
No wonder Gong Yan left in such a hurry …
When Su Qizhi saw that Pei Luoyi was no longer as lazy as before, the crafty smile on her face grew even weirder.
"Say, Grandpa Gong, he …" He entered the emergency room? "What's going on?"
Su Qizhi pursed her lips and smiled, then leaned back against the leather sofa. "You don't even know this? "Yan-gege didn't tell you?"
Since he didn't say anything, she naturally wouldn't tell him. This feeling of knowing, yet being the closest woman to a man made her feel inexplicably refreshed.
"Miss Su, in your eyes, I really am not worthy of that man. I just want to ask, if by your standards, my family is not good enough for him, then would you be good enough?" From what I know, there are many famous sects in the Yun City that have more power and family background than the Su family. According to what you said, those young mistresses from those famous sects are more suitable for the position of the young mistress of the Gong family than you, right? "
She laughed softly and continued, "The Old Mistress of the Palace didn't like me, at least I don't think she liked me. She was Gong Yan's grandmother and his family, so what about you? What position are you on, pointing fingers at my feelings for him? Miss Su's behavior and those Third Aunt and Sixth Aunt on the street … What's the difference? "
Su Zhizhi's whole body shook as if she suddenly came to her senses. She felt embarrassed and angry after being scolded by a woman.
Her Position...
What position could she have?
She wasn't his family, and she wasn't even his friend... But it was this irrefutable fact that made her feel even worse.
Pei Luoyi did not speak any further. She calmly looked at the stiff upper body of the woman sitting across from her, patiently waiting for her reply.
Actually, he knew that she wouldn't be able to answer much of a question. How could she expect a pampered and spoiled young miss to change her position and ponder over it?
In the end, the woman left without a word. She didn't even have time to drink the ginger tea that the servant brought her.
When Pei Luoyi returned to her room, she felt a strange sense of exhaustion. It was not physically, but rather mentally, and she could not shake off the feeling of depression that had plagued her for a very long time.
After sitting quietly on the edge of the bed for a while, she got up and went to the bathroom to take a bath. She changed into a set of clean clothes, cleaned herself up, and went downstairs.
The servant was about to go upstairs when he saw her walking down. He hurriedly asked, "Miss Pei, are you going out?"
Pei Luoyi looked at her and nodded, "En, I have something to take care of."
"But …"
"Don't worry, if Gong Yan asks, I will explain it to him."
She bit her lips and hurried down the stairs, not bothering to listen to what the servant had to say.
Right after walking out of the door, a man in a suit stood guard by the door. Upon seeing her, he stepped forward to welcome her.
It would be better to say that he had stopped her when he was right in front of her.
"Miss Pei, I'm sorry, Young Master Gong wants you to have a good rest. You can't go out right now."
Pei Luoyi had lost a few kilograms of weight in the past few days, and her complexion looked a bit bad. However, she had been eating a while ago and was still quite energetic, not to the point of being unable to leave her house.
She had a gentle smile on her face as she looked at the man. "I have something I want to take care of at the hospital. Your Young Master Gong is also there now. I can go find him, right?"
She paused, thinking of something, and then added, "I'm in good spirits, and I'm fine. I've already slept for a few hours, and I'm done resting. If it's convenient for you, why don't you take me to the hospital?"
"This …"
The man looked a little hesitant, but Pei Luoyi continued to encourage him with a smile, "Your Young Master really likes me now. Otherwise, he wouldn't have spent so much effort looking for me. "Why don't you just make a beautiful job and send me there?"
