Chapter 405: Chapter 405 Avoidance and Non-Avoidance

Qiao Rui was taken aback by his words, then smiled sweetly, "Sure, thanks for being considerate."

Pei Liyan felt a bit helpless; she really didn’t let him listen.

"Have a good chat." Pei Liyan gazed deeply at her and only then turned to leave.

He was truly considerate, actually leaving space and time for her.

Once the door closed, Qiao Rui answered the phone.

Jiang Jinfeng’s voice came through. "Ancestor, you’re really our ancestor, how did you get involved with the Lin Family again? We haven’t dealt with the Song Family yet, and now you’re going against the Lin Family."

"You don’t need to get involved in this." Qiao Rui said calmly, "I have my own measure."

"I think it would be better if you let us get involved, at least if you did, we wouldn’t be so worried." Jiang Jinfeng’s speech quickened considerably, it was clearly understandable that he was genuinely concerned.

Qiao Rui laughed and said earnestly, "You don’t need to worry about it, I’m not that convenient at the moment."

"Is Pei Liyan by your side?" Jiang Jinfeng was taken aback. "Then should I hang up now?"

"He went downstairs." Qiao Rui felt it best to say as little as possible.

"Then let me say a bit more." Jiang Jinfeng said, "I visited Muyu today, her health has improved well, and the Song Family is harassing her with calls. Mrs. Song keeps calling non-stop. I see Muyu’s attitude is very determined, quite different from before, very firm."

"If she can’t awaken on her own, no amount of help from others will matter." Qiao Rui said softly, "Thus, everything still depends on herself."

"Then rest assured about her." Jiang Jinfeng earnestly advised her, "Be a bit careful yourself, the Lin Family isn’t easy to deal with."

"I know." Qiao Rui said, "I’ve already planned to send Lin Qingshi in to stay for a while."

"Did you find a suitable reason?" Jiang Jinfeng was surprised.

"Of course, it’s all designed." Qiao Rui said, "When the time comes, he will obediently cough up the money and be very proactive."

"I believe you when you say that." Jiang Jinfeng’s tone was serious, "It seems you’ve arranged everything, just be sure to stay safe."

"Alright, stop nagging, you’re becoming more and more like an old woman." Qiao Rui said helplessly, "A grown man being so naggy isn’t good."

Jiang Jinfeng also felt helpless. "Don’t tease me, it’s just that your actions really make people worry."

"You nag and blame it on me." Qiao Rui laughed. "Not going to talk to you anymore, hang up now."

"Alright!" Jiang Jinfeng then hung up the phone.

At the door, Pei Liyan stood there with a flicker of light in his eyes.

She indeed had a concrete plan that could achieve her goals so effortlessly; it seemed she truly had everything under control.

Nevertheless, hearing about another man on the phone made Pei Liyan feel a bit annoyed.

But he still went downstairs to get some fruit.

When he found Mrs. Feng to get the fruit, Mrs. Feng unexpectedly asked, "Master, you came down so quickly?"

"So quickly?" Pei Liyan frowned slightly. "What do you mean?"

Mrs. Feng was taken aback, a bit embarrassed, and quickly explained, "Oh, nothing, I just thought the fruit wouldn’t be needed so soon, so I didn’t dare bring it up."

Pei Liyan frowned slightly and glanced at Mrs. Feng.

Mrs. Feng chuckled dryly twice, quickly lowered her head, and said nothing further.

Pei Liyan then turned to go back upstairs.

Mrs. Feng let out a long sigh.

Uncle Feng walked over and scolded, "You, you, getting older and not knowing how to speak properly, lacking manners."

"Old man, don’t you think the master is too fast?" Mrs. Feng leaned in close to Uncle Feng, speaking in lowered tones, "I mean it, should we give him a bit of a boost?"

Uncle Feng was also worried but said, "This is a man’s pride and dignity, can’t say it lightly."

"I know." Mrs. Feng said, "So I’ll be cautious, first get him some tonic food to try and see if it helps."

"Okay, buy some during tomorrow’s groceries." Uncle Feng said, "For nourishment, take a trip to the Chinese hospital and have a traditional doctor prescribe some tonic soup packs."

"Alright."

The couple decided, both believing Pei Liyan was too quick, having just gone upstairs only to return shortly, he must have an issue.

Meanwhile, Pei Liyan himself didn’t think much of it; all his attention was on the phone call Qiao Rui had just made.

The person on the other end was a man, a man with a very good relationship with her.

Returning to the room, he looked calm and directly placed the fruit tray on the bed for Qiao Rui.

Qiao Rui glanced at him, noticing that although he appeared calm, he was even more silent than before.

Qiao Rui said, "You seem a bit unhappy?"

"I wouldn’t dare." Pei Liyan replied casually.

Qiao Rui shrugged, "You seem angry, just because I made a call without letting you listen?"

Pei Liyan said, "I’m not that petty, but if the person on the other end is a man, then I’m a bit displeased."

Qiao Rui paused, tilting her head to look at Pei Liyan, "Mr. Pei, were you eavesdropping outside? That’s not quite decent."

She carefully recalled what she said, seemingly not mentioning Jinfeng’s name, only mentioning Lin Qingshi.

That’s alright then.

Qiao Rui silently felt fortunate she hadn’t said too much.

Pei Liyan didn’t explain further but sat beside her, gazing at her with earnest eyes: "No matter who the man you’re connecting with, you are my woman."

Qiao Rui laughed. "Mr. Pei, you’re way too domineering."

"So, no matter what happened before, from now on you belong only to me." He looked at her, speaking each word deliberately, his tone exceptionally serious.

Qiao Rui couldn’t help laughing again. "Then if I’m still a country girl in the future, you can’t return me."

Pei Liyan recalled her previous awkward appearance, feeling quite helpless.

What kind of girl behaves like this.

Others adorn themselves, while she turned her beautiful self ugly and earthy.

"Getting playful again!" Pei Liyan reached out to tousle her hair, then said, "Have some fruit, I’m going to the study to make a few calls."

"Oh, okay." She blinked slyly and said, "Mr. Pei’s phone calls also don’t want me to hear, right?"

Just then, Qiao Rui’s phone rang again, she glanced at it and saw it was a stranger’s number, but it was also Liang Jinqian’s phone.

Qiao Rui had noted it last time, and having seen it twice she naturally recognized it.

Pei Liyan glanced at it and said, "Someone’s calling you."

Qiao Rui’s eyes shifted, she smiled and said, "An unknown person, you don’t need to avoid it, why don’t you listen?"

Pei Liyan raised an eyebrow. "You sure you want me to listen?"

"I didn’t let you listen just now and you got upset, sulked with a face so small-minded."

Pei Liyan also laughed. "Pick it up!"

Qiao Rui answered the call.

Over there, Liang Jinqian’s voice came through. "Hello, Miss Qiao, my last name is Liang."
