A second chance with my billionaire husband

Chapter 1300 - 252: Fate’s Caprice Comes Knocking (Part 3)

Pei Xinyi hesitated for a moment, glanced at Pei Ying’s expression, and Pei Ying saw her wanting to speak but holding back, smiled and said, "Just say what you want to say."

Pei Xinyi walked over, whispered something in her ear, Pei Ying raised an eyebrow slightly, "Old and shameless, aren’t they embarrassed?"

Pei Xinyi remained silent for a while, everyone knew about her father-in-law’s flirtatious ways. Before, it was just messing around outside, now he’s reaching into the house, who can tolerate it?

"Whose person is it?" Pei Ying sat down at the dining table, she had been eating vegetarian meals for years, same for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

"A helper from the kitchen, very pretty. Dad used to favor her a lot..."

Pei Ying curled her lips, laughing very mockingly, if they aren’t young and pretty, does he even care?

"She was very close to Ji Yunya before, and just two days before Lu Mingzhu died, she frequently entered Lu Mingzhu’s room. Is there some connection between the three?" Pei Xinyi said, glancing at Pei Ying.

Pei Ying silently ate breakfast, put down the napkin, and picked up a paper napkin to wipe her mouth, "I said a long time ago, this Ji Yunya is not simple. Zizi was used by her this time, Lao San’s wife is quite something. No wonder they all looked down on others and insisted their son marry this woman. Sometimes, what’s most important for a woman isn’t looks, nor family background, but intelligence and means. That’s the foundation for standing firm."

"Though aunt hasn’t said anything, I think she won’t let it go easily. What should we do?"

Pei Ying snorted softly, "A biting dog doesn’t bark, it hurts the most. Sister-in-law has been in charge for so many years, her residual power still lingers, but I’m not easy to bully either."

After speaking, she squinted her eyes, rubbing the beads in her hands, "What is this Ji Yunya planning?"

Pei Xinyi kept her head down and said nothing.

Pei Ying thought of something, suddenly said, "How’s that girl from the Meng Family?"

Pei Xinyi paused for a moment, then said, "Not looking good."

Pei Ying sneered, "Ruthless enough."

"Call Qinghan, ask him to come over for a visit. I’m his aunt, he should come to see me."

Yun Ya woke up feeling refreshed, pushed open the window, it was another sunny day.

Mingyue sat by the rear window, one leg folded, her sharply angular face reflected an ambiguous beauty under the morning light, exuding a cold aura even colder than the wind outside.

The two had developed enough tacit understanding, sometimes just one glance was enough to know what the other meant. Yun Ya sat leisurely in front of the mirror, combing her long hair slowly with a comb.

"Lu Mingzhu is dead."

"Mm." Yun Ya’s lips curled slightly, just thinking about that nauseating woman always coveting Brother Yan was disgusting in every way.

It’s good she’s dead, no longer feeling this world’s coldness and darkness, how wonderful.

"Jiang Li returned this morning, Lu Mingzhu’s death was handled as an accident, Lu Yuke didn’t pursue it."

This kind of thing won’t be openly discussed. Lu Yuke knows well in her heart, if it gets big, no one’s face would look good. But Lu Yuke is very vengeful, not pursuing it doesn’t mean she’s let it go. On the contrary, she’s keeping score in her mind.

These two women have extremely clumsy methods, and they still want to plot against her, against Brother Yan. She simply played along, using Yan Zi’s hand to rid of Lu Mingzhu. Li Xiaoxiao still has some use, temporarily keeping this account, then use the opportunity to stir up conflict between the first and fourth households.

During breakfast, Meng Shujing came with Yan Xing and Yan Hua: "Yueyue, you guys are up quite early."

Zhuang Xiyue smiled, "Sister-in-law, take a seat."

Yan Xing plopped down beside Yun Ya, stared with big eyes, and asked, "Sister Yun Ya, did you sleep well last night?"

Yun Ya smiled, "Not bad, what about you?"

Yan Xing propped her chin, said gloomily, "Had a nightmare last night, scared me to death, couldn’t sleep after waking up in the middle of the night."

Yun Ya looked at the dark circles under her eyes, indeed seemed a bit sleep-deprived, but still bursting with vitality, her little mouth babbling non-stop. Even the good-tempered Yan Hua got annoyed and put a chopstick of greens in her bowl: "Eating can’t even shut you up."

Yun Ya looked at Yan Xing’s bright smile, thought to herself she still didn’t know that the person she hated the most had died last night. Actually, it’s better she didn’t know. Some people just should live innocently.

Meng Shujing hadn’t slept well either last night, looking a bit haggard, and after saying a few words to Zhuang Xiyue, secretly glanced at Yun Ya from the corner of her eye. She had reassessed this young girl, Ah Ci’s injury, Lu Mingzhu’s death, none of these were coincidences. Perhaps this girl was the mastermind behind it all. Her demeanor elegant, her appearance beautiful, her smile warm and gentle, perfectly flawless. Even with Xingxing being so noisy, she didn’t show a hint of impatience. Just this level of composure was unparalleled.
