Chapter 197: We Are Different
“I… I didn’t…” Pei Yutang protested immediately, although he sounded guilty.
In hindsight, after he mulled over Lin Yan’s words, he realized that she was right…
“Your Big Brother is so strict with you because he doesn’t want you to have that mindset. He wants you to be independent, and that involves toughening you up mentally as well. You have to learn to rely on yourself to solve the problems that you face. Perhaps, before a crisis or conflict happens, you can put an end to it. You shouldn’t allow disastrous consequences to occur,” Lin Yan said patiently.
She couldn’t help but advise Pei Yutang, as he was about the same age as her brother.
Pei Yutang let Lin Yan’s words wash over him as he sat there in silence. Indeed, he was too arrogant and pompous at times and didn’t think about the consequences. He still relied on his family and background subconsciously…
Pei Nanxu raised his head, looking surprised as he studied the girl. He looked as though he had never expected her to give such earnest advice.
Lin Yan patted Pei Yutang’s shoulders. “Third Young Master, that’s why I’m different from you. You are just a racer with no money or power, but my boyfriend is the president of the JM Corporation and the head of the clan. Of course I can hit anyone I like!”
Pei Yutang, who had been feeling touched a second ago, was rendered speechless…
When Lin Yan stopped talking, she gave a fawning smile to the man beside her. Her expression seemed to say ‘You can’t scold me, and I know I can beat other people because I have your support.’ Lin Yan then said, “Mr. Pei, even though I was in the wrong, I only beat them up after weighing the situation. I knew I could, that was why I hit them.”
Pei Yucheng watched and smiled at the girl, who looked really earnest. “That sounds reasonable, Miss Lin.”
Pei Yutang was speechless…
Reasonable?
He couldn’t believe this. She had merely concocted some nonsense! How could his brother, who was so intelligent, think that this sounded reasonable?
Pei Nanxu couldn’t help but inch closer to his second brother. “Indeed, people who are in love are fools. That applies to Big Brother too…”
Pei Nanxu shook his head and grinned.
The car had reached Cloud Manor.
Lin Yan realized this when the car stopped. “Hmmm…”
Pei Yutang opened the door eagerly and said, “Big Sister-In-Law! Why aren’t you getting out? Come on!”
Lin Yan was speechless…
She just wanted to go home!
She shuffled her feet awkwardly as she pondered how she should take her leave…
Pei Yucheng, who had just gotten out, strode over to her and took her other hand, which wasn’t injured, casually. “Join us for a meal. Consider this your formal introduction to Yutang and Nanxu.”
As the warmth of his palm coursed through her entire body, Lin Yan couldn’t seem to hear what the man said. She stared blankly at the man’s exquisite features, which could bewitch anyone. Instinctively, she blurted out, “Oh… Okay…”
The moment she blurted this out, she really wished that she could slap herself.
What happened to saying that looks were deceiving?
She wanted to break up!
In the end, Lin Yan obediently allowed herself to be led into the house.
Pei Yutang rushed to get the first-aid kit. As he applied medicine on his wounds, he reeled off aloud. “I want to eat Uncle Zhong’s braised pork, stewed fish, sweet and sour pork ribs, poached beef slices, and fried chicken…”
