Chapter 78 Warlord Miss X Weak Scholar 14
Dozens of lives were held in Marshal Xie's hands. The others sighed a few times but said nothing.

I just secretly prayed in my heart that Miss Xie was a sensible woman and would not hurt the relationship between the two because of this incident.

Under the night, Pei Zhang returned to Xie's Mansion under the stars and the moon.

Just after passing the gate of the mansion, I looked up and saw Xie Yunting with a frosty face.

Pei Zhang's heart tightened. He didn't realize when Xie Yunting was standing there.

"What does Mr. Pei think of the Xie Mansion?"

"Miss" Pei Zhang was not sure for a moment how much Xie Yunting knew and what his attitude was, so he did not dare to speak casually.

"Follow me." After Xie Yunting said that, he turned and left without looking at Pei Zhang's reaction.

Pei Zhang followed him uneasily. Along the way, he made many drafts, but none of them seemed suitable.

He was like a prisoner waiting for sentencing, silent all the way.

"You all stay away."

Xie Yunting glanced at him with a look full of intimidation. Both Marshal Xie's personal soldiers in the mansion and the servants in her yard were forced to retreat.

In the past, when they waited on her, the eldest lady usually wouldn't say anything, but now, the eldest lady clearly told them to stay away, and they didn't dare to disobey.

Pei Zhang was not the first person to enter Xie Yunting's room, but he had never been as nervous as he was now.

Xie Yunzing got straight to the point, "Tell me, what are you doing recently?"

"I'm studying words with a few friends." Pei Zhang hesitated for a moment.

"Oh? That's it." Xie Yunting raised his eyebrows and looked at Pei Zhang with a half-smile.

Pei Zhang's psychological pressure increased sharply, but the words had already been spoken, so he could only nod his head.

Xie Yunting knew that Pei Zhang would not tell the truth to her, and she was 70% sure of Pei Zhang's identity.

She sat down and looked at Pei Zhang without saying anything.

Pei Zhang was silent. He couldn't say yet. After all, the eldest lady was Marshal Xie's daughter. Their attitudes were naturally different.

"Okay, since you said that, I'll just believe it. Then let me ask you, have you thought about our future?" Xie Yunting said coldly, asking Pei Zhang a question that he had been avoiding recently.

Pei Zhang was silent for a long time, "Miss, please believe that Pei Zhang's heart for you has never changed."

"Oh? That's it, Pei Zhang. It seems that you only treat me like this. I don't want to say anything more to you. I just want to remind you, don't think that your identity as a member of the Jiangning Pei family can protect you for a long time."

Pei Zhang refused to be heart-to-heart, and Xie Yunting did not force him, but coldly showed off his guests.

Pei Zhang took heavy steps and slowly left where Xie Yun stopped.

Miss, I'm sorry.

He could only apologize to Xie Yunting silently in his heart.

He didn't dare to bet on dozens of lives, even if in his opinion, Xie Yunting was different.

The next day, Xie Yun stopped going to Marshal Xie's study and stayed there for an hour.

No one knows what the father and daughter said at this hour. They only know that when Xie Yunzing went out, Marshal Xie's roar telling her to get out almost penetrated the whole house.

In the afternoon, the students who were arrested during the demonstration were released unharmed.

In the private house in Qingcao Lane, everyone was enjoying themselves. Pei Zhang was sitting alone in the corner, feeling as if his heart was being stabbed hard by an invisible big hand.

The eldest lady indeed knew everything and fought for him in her own way. In vain, he uses the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman.

Song Sheng and Cheng Ying noticed his loss and came to comfort him.

"Mingzhi, Miss Xie will understand your helplessness. Please explain it clearly."

"Yes, Miss Xie was really helpful this time. I didn't expect that although Miss Xie is the daughter of a warlord, she also understands justice."

Pei Zhang smiled bitterly and shook his head without saying anything.

Xie Yunting and Du Jinghong made an appointment again at the Western restaurant where they first met.

After the first meeting, a few days after the two separated, Du Jinghong received a polite rejection from the Xie Mansion. When he saw Xie Yunting again, he felt very complicated.

However, they were both from different backgrounds, so the two of them tacitly explained what happened last time and simply chatted about academic matters.

Just as academic companions, the two still have a lot in common to talk about.

Du Jinghong felt even more regretful that the woman he had fallen in love with for the first time actually already had someone he liked.

It's not that he hasn't thought about continuing to pursue and compete with that person, but the biggest obstacle he encountered was not that person, but the eldest lady of the Xie family.

Miss Xie told him clearly that there was no possibility between the two of them, and that she would only like Pei Zhang in this life.

Although Du Jinghong came from a wealthy family, he could not do anything sinister against Pei Zhang or interfere with the relationship between the two, so he could only leave the scene sadly.

"Miss, if he doesn't trust you so much, do you really have no grudges in your heart?" Du Jinghong finally asked his question unwillingly.

The news in the Xie Mansion may be big or small, but everyone in Beicheng who should know about it also knows about it.

"Master Du San, I really can't have no grudges in my heart, but if I were him, he would make the same choice, so I can understand him." Xie Yunting said calmly.

With these words, she would not tell Pei Zhang that he did not trust her and deserved the inner suffering during this period, but that did not mean that she did not agree with his choice.

Pei Zhang's organization has just been established and is still very weak. Any disturbance may cause disaster. Pei Zhang's caution is not wrong.

She is a person from later generations. She is familiar with history and deeply understands how difficult it was for people like Pei Zhang in those years.

"Miss Xie is really broad-minded." Du Jinghong's words were not a strange statement, but a sincere admiration.

From this moment, Du Jinghong gave up completely. He knew that with Xie Yunting's feelings for Pei Zhang, he was destined to be unable to get involved in this relationship.

"What I mentioned before, what do you think of Master Du San?"

Xie Yunting changed the topic. She asked Du Jinghong out not to share her emotional issues.

Speaking of this, Du Jinghong was silent for a while, "I still need to think about it again. Miss Xie, you know, I am not the head of the Du family yet. I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to my father."

Xie Yunting didn't force him. Du Jinghong could talk about this, which was a great honor to her.

"Okay, then I'll be waiting for news about Young Master Du San at any time." Xie Yunting picked up his bag and left his seat.

After coming out of the Western restaurant, Xie Yun stopped at an inn and changed into plain clothes, put on makeup, changed his appearance, and met several more people.

Marshal Xie sent his own soldiers to follow her, but she easily got rid of him.

On the other side, Pei Zhang wanted to leave a letter and leave, but he had no face to face Xie Yunting again, but he suddenly received an urgent task from his superiors and was forced to stay.

After opening the packed luggage and putting it out again, Pei Zhang's inner emotions were very complicated.

It’s both tangled and somewhat secretly joyful.
