Chapter 376: Late night appeal
Chapter 376 Late Night Complaint
Pei Yi couldn't help feeling sympathetic to her.
She was silent.
It was really because Pei Yi couldn't say anything under such circumstances.
The best way is for her to listen quietly and give Xiao Junji emotional support.
"To be honest, before returning to the Xiao family this time, I still had fantasies about my father." Xiao Junji smiled wryly.
"In my impression, my father has always loved me the most. If he knew that my second brother had actually killed me as an elder brother, then why would my father vent his anger on me?"
"Who ever thought that my father just appeased me, and then pretended to punish my second brother."
Xiao Junji smiled bitterly, but also sarcastically.
“I knew how naive I was when I realized that.”
"My royal father actually admires my second brother's behavior."
"Not only does he not think that my second brother is cruel and ruthless, but he thinks that my second brother's behavior is called non-toxic and not a husband."
Xiao Junji's face was full of coldness, and he said with a fake smile: "Do you think this is ridiculous?"
Pei Yi was very surprised.
She never expected that the family style of the Xiao family in Jinzhou would be so ruthless.
At this moment, she truly felt sorry for Xiao Junji.
A person returns to his original home after going through untold hardships.
He hopes that his biological father can uphold justice for him.
In the end, instead of upholding justice for himself, the father shielded and even praised the culprit.
Who can bear such a thing?
Xiao Junji is able to talk about this matter in such a relatively calm manner, and his psychological endurance is already remarkable.
"However, fortunately God took pity on me and allowed me to meet Saburo." Xiao Junji smiled sweetly with a happy face, "At least there is one person in this world who is willing to pity me and help me."
These words are gross, but in this scene, Pei Yi only feels distressed when she hears them.
She wanted to comfort Xiao Junji, but she couldn't say anything. She always felt that everything she said would be hypocritical, and she might not have said anything about Xiao Junji's heart at all, but it would be self-defeating.
Xiao Junji saw Pei Yi's solemn expression, so he knew that this person cared about him.
He was very sweet in his heart, thinking to himself that this move was a good one.
Xiao Junji decided to make persistent efforts.
"Why…"
He let out a long sigh pretending to be sad, and said with a frowning face: "To be honest, I regret going back to Xiao's house every day now. It would be great if I stayed by Saburo's side. Being a 'Du Heng' can be compared to being a 'Xiao Junji'." too much."
Pei Yi felt distressed, but she had to wake up when she heard such words.
She comforted softly: "You are now the eldest son of the Xiao family, compared to back then, you can be said to be one in the sky and one in the ground."
Xiao Junji held her hand, pouted slightly and said, "That's right, being by Saburo's side is like being in heaven, and being the heir of the Xiao family is like being stepped into the dirt."
Pei Yi withdrew her hand, frowned helplessly and said: "You know I don't mean it, why do you say it the other way around?"
Seeing that she seemed dissatisfied, Xiao Junji quickly stopped talking.
He knows how to stop when enough is enough, and turned to be aggrieved and said: "I'm just saying what I think in my heart, and it's fine if Saburo disagrees."
Pei Yi heard what he said so pitifully and aggrieved, and couldn't help but wonder if what she said just now was a bit too serious.
Seeing that the atmosphere was good, Xiao Junji changed the subject calmly and said, "Sanlang, I am yours now. Your secret is my secret, and I will definitely keep it secret for you."
What exactly is this "secret" is, the two of them tacitly agree.
Pei Yi felt a little strange, she was silent and did not speak.
Xiao Junji looked at her expression, and asked cautiously: "Sanlang, besides me, does anyone else know your secret?"
Pei Yi was slightly taken aback, and after a moment of silence, she nonsense said: "No more."
Xiao Junji stared at her, not letting go of any suspicious expression on her face, and said with a smile: "It seems that you still don't trust me, Saburo."
Pei Yi said half-truthfully with a serious face: "I'm telling the truth. Apart from my father, mother and brother, you are the only one who knows my secret."
Are you kidding me, if one more person knows her secret, she will be more dangerous.
If these people who know the secret communicate with each other, then she will be even more dangerous.
She was stupid to honestly tell Xiao Junji who else knew that she was a daughter.
Although Pei Yi was full of complaints in her heart, her face was extremely sincere, and her tone was also quite sincere.
Rao was Xiao Junji who suspected the moisture in Pei Yi's words at first, but at this moment he couldn't help but believe it.
He thought for a while, and then continued: "Since Saburo trusts me so much, then I have nothing to hide from Saburo."
"My second brother Xiao Junlin is now in Wanshou County, under the pseudonym Gu Huaiyu. Sanlang, you should pay more attention to him."
"My second brother is doing all kinds of business on the surface, but he is actually helping the masters in Beijing with their affairs."
Pei Yi heard that Xiao Junji actually told her such an urgent and confidential matter, and she suddenly felt sorry for her concealment behavior just now.
She almost told the truth, but swallowed the words again, secretly reminding herself that it is better to be cautious.
"Then do you know who Gu Huaiyu is doing things for?" Pei Yi said while thinking, "It's a coincidence, this time I came to Wanshou County to take up the post, and Gu Huaiyu was with me. He himself said this Fan came to Wanshou County to do some rice and noodle business. But I felt that Gu Huaiyu's words were not reliable, so I sent someone to watch him. However, until now, I haven't seen any clues."
Xiao Junji was silent for a while, and slowly said: "My second brother is cautious, and his activities in the capital have always been reported only to my father, I don't know much about it. If you think he transported this time If there is a problem with rice noodles, you might as well send someone to watch those grain shops."
"Someone has been sent to watch it." Pei Yi said frowningly, "I just found nothing."
Xiao Junji thought for a moment, and said calmly: "Sanlang, you are sending people to watch the grain store now, just to see who has bought a large amount of rice noodles from the grain store, and then track down the whereabouts."
"But my second brother has always been very cautious in doing things, it is impossible to leave such a big deal to you."
"He probably asked different people to buy small quantities multiple times, so that the rice noodles were transferred to the real buyer without anyone noticing."
Pei Yi was enlightened, and said with a bit of distress: "In this way, I will have no way to find out."
After all, under normal circumstances, people buy grain in small quantities, and even if there is a lot, they will not go anywhere. If Gu Huaiyu's people also bought in small quantities, they would have mixed into the crowd of ordinary people, and it would be impossible to identify them.
