Chapter 133 - Nangong Yuxiu

“Miss Pei, please come with us.”

Not long after Pei Qin left the beauty salon, a few bodyguards in black suits walked over and forcefully asked her to leave.

This time, Pei Qin was completely flustered.

“Where … where do you want to take me?”

Her eyes were panicked and her face was pale. Her fingers tightened around her bag.

“President Lu and Madam are waiting for you.”

Sure enough… It was them.

Pei Qin bit her lip. In the past, she would definitely be willing to go to the Lu family, but now, she couldn’t wait to get as far away from the Lu family as possible.

“I have things to do now. I’ll find my sister and brother-in-law another day.”

She started to leave in a hurry, but one of the bodyguards grabbed her.

Lu Zhan’s assistant pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and walked over. There was a smile on his lips, and his words were not so gentle.

“Miss Pei Qin, I advise you to be sensible. President Lu has already gotten someone to monitor you. No matter where you go, you will be found. In addition, we have some of your scandals and criminal records. I believe you don’t want us to put these on the Internet. You will become a street rat that everyone wants to beat up.”

Pei Qin looked at the photo in his hand. It was a photo of her hooking up with men. There was more than one, and it was very scandalous.

If such photos were posted online, she would be ruined.

Not only that, but there was also the matter of her bribing kidnappers to blackmail her ex-husband’s illegitimate son for money.

‘How… how did they find all this evidence!’

Pei Qin was completely flustered. In the end, she could only get into the car with great fear and panic.

The Lu family mansion, a place that she had wanted to live in countless times, was now like a huge beast with its mouth wide open.

When she was brought in by the bodyguard, she saw that other than Lu Beihuai, who could not return, the rest of the Lu family were all here.

And Lu Xiaocha, who should not be here!

Pei Qin took one look and looked away in panic and guilt. Her fingers that were holding her bag began to turn pale.

When she entered, everyone’s faces were cold and pressurizing.

This feeling made Pei Qin feel suffocated.

“Sister, Brother-in-law, why… Why did you call me here?”

Her voice trembled even as she spoke.

“You’re here.” Pei Anran stood up and slowly walked to her side. Every step seemed to step on her heart, and the fear in her heart was infinitely increased.

“Bam—”

Pei Anran raised her hand and slapped Pei Qin hard, causing her to fall to the ground.

Before she could react, she pinched her chin again, her beautiful eyes cold and fierce.

“You’re really my good sister, Pei Qin. Over the years, even a dog would be loyal. Why did I have to raise an ingrate?”

Pei Qin covered her face, feeling extremely humiliated.

But facing the domineering Pei Anran, she was also extremely panicked.

“Sis, what… what are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

Pei Anran dropped her chin.

“Pretty good at pretending. It must have taken a long time to plan the kidnapping of my Xiaocha.”

Pei Qin refused to admit it. “Sis, what are you talking about? What kidnapping? Was Xiaocha kidnapped? How could I do such a thing? There must be some misunderstanding. I’m her aunt! Sis, someone must be trying to frame me. Don’t believe it. I’m your biological sister.”

Pei Anran looked down at her ‘biological sister’.

She had already been disappointed countless times. At this moment, her eyes were filled with indifference.

“You know these people, don’t you?”

Lu Zhan threw some photos in front of her. His voice was as cold as ice. He looked at her as if he could freeze her to death.

Pei Qin was terrified. Her pupils constricted as she looked at the person in the photo.

“No, I don’t.”

She shook her head in denial.

Lu Zhan threw the photo over unhurriedly.

“What about these?”

One second she was saying she didn’t know them, and the next she was dumbfounded.

Because those photos showed her being intimate with the men.

Pei Qin felt panic and shame.

She panicked because these were the people who kidnapped Lu Xiaocha.

She was ashamed because, in those photos, she was very intimate with several men. All of this was exposed in front of Lu Zhan.

The person she was thinking about was holding a photo of her being intimate with someone else.

“I—I—”

She couldn’t say anything for a long time. The Lu family members looked at her as if they wanted to kill her.

“What else do you have to say?” Pei Anran looked at her coldly.

Pei Qin looked flustered. “They approached me on purpose. Yes, it was them. They approached me on purpose because they knew I was Xiaocha’s aunt. They wanted to kidnap me and blackmail you. I didn’t want to, Sis. I was forced. Otherwise, they would have killed me and Xue.”

Pei Anran slowly sat back in her chair and looked at Pei Qin with a mocking expression.

“You’re very evasive. Didn’t you refuse to admit it just now? Pei Qin, you don’t think that’s all the evidence we have, do you?”

Lu Beilin sneered. “Guess why we didn’t send you straight to the police station.”

It was a lazy voice with a smile, but it made Pei Qin’s blood run cold.

Immediately after, his words struck her like a bolt of lightning.

“You must have been involved in what happened thirteen years ago.”

Pei Qin’s fingernails dug into her palms until they bled. She tried to calm herself down.

“What … What thirteen years ago? What are you talking about?”

She probably didn’t even realize how shaky her voice sounded at the moment.

“Since you don’t know, why don’t you let me do the talking?”

A clear voice came from the door. It was as if it had come from the sky, bringing with it a wave of early snow, making one’s heart calm and cool on the hot summer day.

When Lu Xiaocha looked over, she saw a slender man in white walking in unhurriedly.

If there was a word to describe him, it would probably be that he only existed up in the heavens.

He had an ethereal feeling that he could ascend to immortality at any time. He was like an immortal who ignored the mortal world and did not care about it.

Pei Anran’s eyes lit up the moment she saw who it was.

“Ah Xiu!”

Nangong Yuxiu’s lips slowly curled up like snow melting and bringing everything back to life.

“Sister.”

His voice was as clear as jade and as cold as immortal music.

This was Lu Xiaocha’s uncle, Nangong Yuxiu.

Speaking of Nangong Yuxiu, he actually had a backstory.

He was originally the young master of the Nangong family, a hidden clan. However, he was left outside when he was young because of some unknown family conflicts. Later, he was picked up by Pei Anran’s mother and adopted. When he was 15 years old, he was found by the Nangong family and returned to his own family. He also inherited the entire Nangong family.

However, he had always been grateful to his adoptive mother who had adopted him, and his elder sister, Pei Anran, who had brought him up. Even after returning to the Nangong family, the siblings had always kept in touch and were very close.
