Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As the heir of the Pei family, Pei Yu had come to learn many of his father’s tips and tricks. Therefore, when Mr. Pei mentioned his plan, he immediately understood his father’s purpose.
Mr. Pei saw a new value in Pei Xin.
“No matter how much we humiliate and scold her, her and Ling Xue’s lives can’t be reversed.
“The Pei family has put in so much effort to nurture her. She basically occupied the role of the Pei family’s daughter and was once pursued by so many people.
“We didn’t get anything in return from her. She only brought us shame…
“But it’s different now. I don’t know what ability she has that might help us. Even with her broken body, she can still get the attention of so many wealthy families.
“We should at least measure her value and seek benefits for the Pei family before acting. These benefits will naturally support Ling Xue in the future.” Mr. Pei explained in a calm manner.

“Of course.” Mr. Pei agreed.
After the auction ended, everyone came over to congratulate Li Ze and Jiang Yan.
At the same time, they all stole glances at Pei Xin.
“Do you still want to stay here and let others observe you like you’re an animal?” Lu Huai leaned closer to Pei Xin and whispered. “How about coming with me?”
Pei Xin nodded. “Alright.”
The two of them were whispering so they had to inch closer to each other to not be overheard. When that happened, they happened to be photographed by someone.
Those rumors that Lu Huai liked Pei Xin spread around.
Photos were circulated in the circle, and everyone in Haicheng suddenly knew about them.
Ling Xue also saw the message posted in the group.
She was now able to blend in very well with the circle of heiresses. Those who used to follow Pei Xin now followed her.
Not only because the Pei Family was powerful, but also because Lu Li was her boyfriend.
She had the Pei family and the Lu family backing her.
For the other daughters of wealthy families, even if some of them were married by marriage, they would never be able to achieve the amount of power gained between Ling Xue and Lu Li.
Therefore, when the news of Pei Xin being chosen by Lu Huai spread, Ling Xue was the first to know.
Pei Yu was with her in the ward.
Seeing Ling Xue’s expression turned ugly, Pei Yu asked with some concern, “Ling Xue, what’s wrong? Are you alright?”
Ling Xue put away the resentment in her heart and turned to Pei Yu with a pitiful expression.
“Pei Xin sure is really capable. After breaking up with Lu Li, she’s hooked up with Lu Huai.”
She laughed self-deprecatingly.

“She used to dance so beautifully. She looked like a goddess to so many of us.
“Even if I return to the Pei family now and live there, I can’t erase the many years I spent in the slums.
“Even though Pei Xin has been in prison for five years, what she learned back then is still there. I will never sum up to her.”
Pei Yu had a complicated look in her eyes after hearing her words.
His heart ached for Ling Xue, but he was also hesitating whether he should continue to take revenge on Pei Xin.
He knew about Sun Che beating Ling Lin up. Even if Pei Xin owed Ling Xue, Ling Lin was still a child and did not deserve such hate. He was implicated by Pei Xin and was bullied to such a harrowing extent.
Ling Lin was Pei Xin’s child. It was understandable for a mother to fight back when they see their child being bullied.
“Lu Huai will never marry Pei Xin. With her status, it’ll be impossible for her to marry into the Lu family,” he comforted her. “Even if Lu Huai is interested in her now, there will be a day when he comes to hate her. Whether you marry Lu Li or not, you will always be the heart of the Pei Family. Pei Xin will never be able to compare to you.”
Ling Xue smiled. “Thank you.”
Even with that, she was still not satisfied with Pei Yu’s answer.
She wanted Pei Yu to feel so bad about her pitiful situation that he would take the initiative to deal with Pei Xin himself..
