Why Did You Provoke Her? She Can Tell Fortunes!-Chapter 383 - 366

There’s an old saying: When enemies meet, their eyes blaze with hatred.

When Pei Jingxiao was chatting with his relatives in the villa, the moment he saw Wen Xu, he couldn’t hold back.

He stood up, rudely pointing at him and asked, "What are you doing here?"

In his view, Wen Xu had no right to be here.

"Does a son born to a mistress like you deserve to stand on this land?"

As he spoke, Pei Jingxiao even stomped on the floor tiles beneath him.

The expression on his face was filled with intense hatred towards Wen Xu.

This hatred had intensified compared to before.

Before, it was because of Wen Xu’s identity, and he and his mother were the fundamental reason for Pei Jingxiao’s mother’s depressed passing.

Pei Jingxiao still remembers that day when his father suddenly announced that he had an older brother, the look on his mother’s face.

Since then, their home had never been peaceful.

In the end, one day, his father just let those bastards into the house.

And then one of them suddenly became his brother.

Originally the eldest son of a wealthy family, suddenly turned into the second son.

But even if that was the case, the problem was that to Pei Jingxiao, Wen Xu was a bastard, and his mother was even more of a homewrecker.

Although the family seemed to have lived peacefully for a while, Pei Jingxiao and his mother had to treat these two with kindness out of necessity, Pei Jingxiao never went a day without hating them.

He also knew that since they entered the house, his mother hadn’t had a normal night’s sleep.

At only thirty, she aged as if decades had passed in a short time.

Even gray hairs appeared.

So the hatred Pei Jingxiao felt towards Wen Xu and his mother was beyond words.

Previously, Wen Xu never returned home, lived outside, and didn’t involve himself in company or family matters. When Pei Jingxiao heard he got a job at a police station, he laughed for quite some time.

To them, such a job as a forensic doctor was indeed unlucky.

Especially business people disliked it.

At the time, Pei Jingxiao laughed at Wen Xu’s self-destruction for getting such a useless job, thinking he might as well be dead.

Secondly, he believed that after this, the other family members would certainly not agree to Wen Xu meddling in the company’s affairs.

Then the heir would only be himself.

And over the years, his father indeed acted accordingly.

But suddenly, it all crumbled like a mountain, not even leaving time to draft a will.

At first, Pei Jingxiao hadn’t fully decided to eliminate Wen Xu. After all, killing someone was risky, and the responsibility could be huge, so he preferred other solutions unless absolutely necessary.

But upon seeing that the old man truly showed no sign of waking, and after doctors informed him that the chances were slim, advising them to prepare in advance.

Then Pei Jingxiao couldn’t afford to stay idle.

If he didn’t act, when the old man died, although Wen Xu was a bastard, he still had the right to a portion of the inheritance.

The Pei Family’s wealth spread out would amount to more than what many people could earn in hundreds of lifetimes.

So he couldn’t allow Wen Xu such an opportunity.

The only option was to make sure he died.

But unexpectedly, both attempts failed.

Failing was one thing, but it even motivated Wen Xu to come to the company and compete for his position.

He had invested a lot of money...

The heartache was immense.

After all, he hadn’t even inherited the company yet.

Even the later hired master’s method didn’t work, which made Pei Jingxiao grind his teeth in frustration.

However, because of the family matters being too busy, and later on being summoned back by the family.

There he was now.

Thinking it might be to discuss the takeover of the company after his father’s passing, Pei Jingxiao was very thrilled.

Believing he had a way to not give Wen Xu a penny.

Just as the discussion went well, he suddenly saw him.

Pei Jingxiao could hardly bear it.

He instantly lost his composure and didn’t care who was sitting around him, beginning to lash out at Wen Xu.

To him, Wen Xu must have shamelessly followed him after hearing about this from somewhere in the company.

In the end, all sorts of venomous words spewed from Pei Jingxiao’s mouth.

He even thought, if he could make Wen Xu lose all face before the family, they would have an even worse opinion of this bastard.

So eventually, he let loose completely, saying whatever came to mind without any restraint.

No matter how much he cursed, Wen Xu appeared much calmer.

His expression didn’t budge, forming a stark contrast with Pei Jingxiao.

Pei Jingxiao didn’t notice that the family members’ gaze on him had long changed, but he only cared about venting his anger.

Until an elder cleared his throat, signaling him to shut his mouth.

Pei Jingxiao then dared not speak again.

Alarmed by realizing his arrogance before these old codgers, speaking so recklessly.

Returning to his senses, he quickly apologized, "I’m sorry, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, I was just too angry, for this filthy guy dared to come here."

"It’s also my fault for not being more careful before I came, letting him follow me."

"I’ll just kick him out."

He wouldn’t miss such a good chance to humiliate Wen Xu.

After saying this, he eagerly stepped forward, only after taking two strides, his second uncle spoke again.

"Wait!"

"Stand aside!"

The burly man shot Pei Jingxiao a sideways glance and reprimanded, "This is not a place for you to speak."

Pei Jingxiao was dumbfounded.

Even though he always feared this second uncle who seemed like a gangster, he didn’t expect him to intervene in this situation.

"Second Uncle...?"

Pei Jingxiao tentatively called out, wanting to continue but ended up wisely shutting his mouth under the intimidating glare.

Perhaps Second Uncle was about to reprimand Wen Xu himself.

Thinking this, Pei Jingxiao stepped aside, ready to watch.

However, the words his second uncle said next completely stunned him.

"I invited him."

Pei Jingxiao: ???

In disbelief, he turned his head and looked at his usually silent Third Uncle sitting in a wheelchair, seeking confirmation of the truth.

Only to see that the latter merely blinked without any hint of rebuttal.

This indicated that his second uncle wasn’t lying.

"Why...?"

Pei Jingxiao evidently couldn’t accept this outcome.

For inviting Wen Xu here was like his father insisting on bringing that mother and son into their home, causing him pain.

Yet he remembered, from childhood to adulthood, his Second and Third Uncles didn’t have a good attitude towards Wen Xu.

How could there suddenly be a change now?

"Of course, because he also carries the Pei Family’s blood!"
