two months later
The Pei Corporation's headquarters had a unique style of building. Everyone who passed by stopped to take a look at it. Bai Jiayu carried her luggage and followed Pei Yun 'er. Every step she took surprised her.
Who would have thought that in just a few years, the Pei family had grown so big? It seemed that Uncle Pei was right to hand over the business to a young man.
"Yun 'er, I remember that before I left the country, the Pei Corporation was still a small company. I didn't expect it to become so big in just a few years.”Bai Jiayu followed behind Pei Yun `er, gasping in amazement as if she was Granny Liu strolling through the Grand View Garden.
"You only know now that the Pei family is the number one company in Han Country.”Pei Yun Er said proudly.
"Looks like Big Brother Chenghuan is proud of his business.”Bai Jiayu's tone was gentle." I wonder if you're happy with love?”
" Sigh…" Pei Yun `er couldn't help but sigh.
"What's wrong?" Bai Jiayu followed her into a spacious office. The feminine furnishings inside were obviously Pei Yun `er's personal office.
"It's all because of Siqiao." Her beautiful face suddenly paled.
"What's wrong with Siqiao?" Bai Jiayu's eyes flashed with a cunning glint.
"She went missing." Pei Yun `er sat on the sofa and said weakly.
"How did he go missing?"
"It's all because of our relationship.”Pei Yun `er's face fell.
"Is it because of your second brother?" Bai Jiayu rested her chin on her hand and looked pensive.
" No, sigh... it's a long story..." Pei Yun `er began to speak," Si Qiao actually transferred all her hatred to big brother. She deceived and played with big brother's feelings, causing irreparable harm to him."”
" When Big Brother found out that Si Qiao was just playing with his feelings, he was furious and angry, but he had no choice but to let go. As he struggled between love and hate, he fell into the edge of madness. Until now, he licked his wounds alone, not letting anyone approach him or comfort him.”
"I didn't expect so many unhappy things to happen to Siqiao during the years I wasn't in Taiwan.”
Pei Yun `er could only sigh to express her dissatisfaction.
"I thought that she would be very happy after marrying Chengyu, but I didn't expect things to change so much.”Bai Jiayu said emotionally.
"I didn't expect Siqiao to become so cruel because of her hurt feelings. We trusted her wrongly.”Pei Yun `er was so sad," The worst thing is that after Siqiao hurt big brother, she actually disappeared and hid. She had a heart."”She was resentful.
"Maybe it's not what you think. Siqiao isn't such a woman. Maybe she just couldn't think straight and made that decision.”
"The truth is already in front of us. She completely hurt big brother and also hurt my trust in her. I thought she was sincere, but I didn't expect it to be just a game in the end.”
"Is big brother Chenghuan's condition very bad?”
"It's terrible," She had a headache whenever she thought of her brother's inhuman appearance. "He is torturing himself with work now. His body is not made of iron. One day, he will definitely not be able to support himself and collapse. However, he just doesn't listen to our advice.”
"Uncle and auntie can't do anything to him?”
"Perhaps the one who started it should be the one who started it, but…sigh, this is already impossible.”Pei Yun `er suddenly looked at Bai Jiayu meaningfully and then smiled slyly.
"What are you up to this time?”Her friendship with Pei Yun `er wasn't fake. She rolled her eyes and knew that she was up to no good again.
"Jiayu knows me." She said obsequiously," I remember that you used to like my brother very much, right?”
"That was a long time ago.”
"No, I don't think it's over yet. The reason why you haven't had a boyfriend after so many years in the United States is because you still can't forget my brother.”
"Yun 'er, I beg you to stop that funny idea, okay?”Bai Jiayu couldn't stand her wild imagination. It was something that happened 800 years ago, yet she still brought it up.
People's feelings would change. Ever since she was rejected by Bae Chenghuan, she knew her limits and no longer stuck her excited heart to his coldness.
"Don't be shy."
"Stop your wild guesses. The reason why I didn't have a boyfriend was because I couldn't meet a man who could make me admire and like me. My feelings for Brother Chenghuan have long been zero.”
"Really?" She did not believe it.
"Believe it or not, it's up to you." Bai Jiayu couldn't be bothered to explain. The innocent knew their place, and her emotions were blank right now.
" If you still like my big brother, then it would be easy…" Pei Yun `er pretended to sigh and complain," He is at his weakest now, it is the easiest time for a woman to break his heart. If there is a woman who likes him now and stays by his side without regrets, letting him forget the pain that Si Qiao brought him, how good would that be?"”
Pei Yun `er's insinuation was just funny to Bai Jiayu. It was obviously white, but she insisted on insinuating black.
"Do you know why I came to look for you as soon as I returned?”She had flown back from America because her brother was getting married. It was also a way to relieve her worries.
"Of course it's to catch up and bicker."
"This is only part of the reason. The important thing is that I came for Siqiao.”
Pei Yun `er reacted quickly," You have Si Qiao's whereabouts?”
"Siqiao ran to America to find me."
"What?" Pei Yun `er stared at her as if she was an alien.
"She went to the United States to find me without a word and stayed at my place.”
"I didn't expect her to disappear to America.”Pei Yun `er whispered.
" Siqiao looked a lot more haggard. She was very unhappy in America and always looked lonely and unhappy, but I couldn't get anything out of her. I felt sorry for her when I saw her like that.”Bai Jiayu said earnestly.
"Humph! She lied to my big brother's feelings. She's free and easy. How could she be unhappy?”Pei Yun `er scolded Song Siqiao from the bottom of her heart. She used to treat her as a good friend, so she took pity on her. However, things were different now. Her actions had hurt the friendship between the two of them. She had long planned to not acknowledge this friend.
"We all know Siqiao's character very well. I believe that she didn't deliberately play with big brother Chenghuan's feelings. She must be deeply remorseful and painful for this wrong decision.”
"Is that really the case?"
"I'm not lying. Since I've already solved the doubts in my heart, can you please bring me to big brother Cheng Huan? I want to tell him this information.”
She thought that Si Qiao was depressed because of Pei Chengyu, but she did not expect things to develop in such a way.
During this period of time, Si Qiao had experienced the trauma of a divorce. Not long after, she fell in love with Bae Chenghuan and suddenly changed. The twists and turns in this were simply confusing.
However, when she thought of that frowning face, she was even more certain of her guess. Siqiao must have loved Bae Chenghuan to death, which was why she could not smile and was always in sorrow.
Since that was the case, why not do her a favor and let the lovers finally get together? She hoped that Siqiao, who was far away in the United States, would not blame her for being a naggy woman.
"Big brother, big brother, there's good news.”Pei Yun `er almost beat the drums to announce her joy to everyone.
She brought Bai Jiayu to the president's office and closed the door, preparing to tell Bae Chenghuan the great news.
"Can't you see that I'm busy?" Bae Chenghuan looked up from his work and glanced at her coldly.
"Who do you think this is?" Pei Yun `er pulled Bai Jiayu in front of him.
He looked carefully and saw a familiar face reflected in his dark eyes. Bae Chenghuan's lips curled into a faint smile.
"Jiayu, you're back."
"Big brother Chenghuan, long time no see.”she greeted.
Yun 'er was right. He was indeed depressed and lonely. That faint smile was more heartbreaking than when he was not smiling. It seemed that Si Qiao had hurt him deeply.
It was only now that she understood that Bae Chenghuan had always been protecting Siqiao with his deep affection. No wonder other women could not enter his eyes. Because in his eyes, other than Siqiao, he could not accommodate anyone else.
She didn't believe that Si Qiao's heart was made of iron. She believed that Si Qiao would thank her in the future.
"Big Brother, Jiayu has news about Siqiao.”
The faint smile on Bae Seonghwan's face instantly disappeared.
"Is she…doing well?" Hearing her name still shocked him, but he quickly regained his composure.
She had never thought that he loved her so much. No matter if she was in pain or happy, he would follow her emotions. She did not expect that she would use his feelings to ease the pain in her heart.
He believed that she would be living well without him.
But he was different…
The days when he lost her, he no longer knew what life was like. Other than work, he was no different from a walking corpse. He did not know the joy of life at all.
Every night, he would dream of her beautiful body and bright smile, and he would always be heartbroken when he woke up.
His deep feelings had been mercilessly played with. His efforts had been met with a sad response. He had poured out all his feelings, but in the end, it was all for nothing. How could he not be resentful?
But sadly, he could not hate her for what she had done.
He couldn't get rid of her hateful image from his mind…
He couldn't erase her silver bell-like smile…
He couldn't erase her watery eyes from the depths of his memory…
He couldn't forget her fair and tender skin…
All of this clearly told him that he loved Song Siqiao to death!
"Siqiao did something to hurt you, but not only did you not blame her, you even asked me if she was well.”Bai Jiayu smiled helplessly." But that's the only way to prove that I'm not wrong.”
"You want to help me?" Pei Chenghuan could tell what she meant and rejected her immediately." My appearance will only add to her troubles and pain. As long as she lives well, I won't appear in front of her again.”
She had already said it harshly. There was only hatred and no love between the two of them. If he forced her to accept him, it would only continue to increase her pain. He did not want to do that.
"Who said that?" Pei Yun `er denied loudly.
She didn't want to see such a dejected brother. The emotional trauma had made him 70% haggard and 30% dispirited. How she wished she could see her brother again, who used to be valiant and handsome.
"Yun 'er, Jiayu, Siqiao and I are not fated. I respect her decision.”He looked at them with a bitter smile, hoping that they would understand his good intentions.
It didn't matter if he was in pain or sad, as long as Siqiao was living well. All of this was because he loved her deeply and did not build his selfish feelings on her pain.
As long as he stayed far away from her, those painful memories would fade away with time, and she could live the life she wanted.
As long as she was happy, he didn't care if his life was ordinary and boring.
"I'm afraid your 'respect' will make you regret it for the rest of your life.”Bai Jiayu said sternly. She really didn't want him, who was so outstanding, to fall into a relationship trauma for the rest of his life and frown all day long.
"Big brother, go and get Siqiao back. I believe she has feelings for you.”
Bae Seonghwan smiled bitterly. This sentence was undoubtedly a sharp blade that stabbed fiercely into his chest, causing him to bleed profusely.
Could he?
He knew that they had good intentions, but they didn't understand the situation. They just wanted them to get back together, but there was no turning back.
Seeing this, Pei Yun 'er felt sad." We are all doing this for your own good. Jiayu said that Siqiao is not doing well in the United States and is worried every day. If she doesn't care about this relationship, she wouldn't be worried."”She explained everything in a panic.
"A woman's intuition has always been accurate. If I wasn't so sure, I wouldn't have come looking for you.”
Bae Chenghuan fell silent and pondered calmly.
As time passed, Bae Chenghuan did not do anything or say anything, causing Bai Jiayu and Pei Yun `er to look at each other.
"Don't make me come here for nothing." Bai Jiayu tried to guess his feelings.
How anxious was he? How long was he going to be silent?
Bae Yun `er looked at Bae Chenghuan uneasily.
" Big brother…" Pei Yun `er couldn't control her temper.
"Believe me, Siqiao has feelings for you. She just put herself in a prison. Now, she needs your help.”
"Big Brother, you should try again. I believe that Siqiao just can't bring herself to look for you. If you're willing to look for her and let bygones be bygones, I believe that she will definitely return to your side.”
The two of them exchanged words in hopes that Bae Chenghuan would make a move, but he was not moved at all. He fell into deep thought. The emperor was really not in a hurry to kill a eunuch.
"Give me your address." Finally, Bae Chenghuan made a decision.
He thought about it and decided to face Si Qiao again. If it was really as Yun 'er said, then he would do anything to bring Si Qiao back to his side.
He didn't want to live his life with regrets. He should give each other a chance. When the two of them met face to face, he wanted her to face her heart clearly and not let her continue to escape.
Perhaps it was as she said, she wanted to make him suffer at first, so she played with his feelings. However, when they were dating, the emotions in her eyes were so sincere and strong.
He did not believe that a person's feelings could be so fake. The Siqiao he knew was so real. He did not believe that those beautiful eyes would lie, so he decided to verify it again.
He was definitely not the only one who was delusional about this relationship.
"That's great." Pei Yun `er wanted to shout long live.
"We will wait for your good news." Bai Jiayu blinked slyly.
Everyone sincerely hoped that when the time came, the good news that spread to everyone's ears would be a joyous occasion.
However, what should have been a happy ending had an unexpected twist. When Bae Chenghuan arrived in the United States according to the address Bai Jiayu had given him, Song Siqiao had already left.
Bae Seonghwan's heart seemed to have been hollowed out in an instant as he stood rooted to the spot in a daze.
As if he didn't want to have anything to do with Bae Chenghuan, Song Siqiao's heartlessness once again pushed Bae Chenghuan into the abyss. From then on, he was decadent and despondent, and he used work to numb himself all day long.
His condition was worse than before he went to America. It could be said that Bae Seonghwan, who guarded the company all day, was just an empty shell without a soul.
His sudden change was seen by everyone. Other than reluctance, there was also heartache, but there was nothing they could do.#
