Chapter 205 I just want an answer
An Ling planned to sneak up to the top floor room now and wait for Pei Jinhao and Xuan Rui to come up, so that she could film their entire planning process.
She can't install a security camera right now, but she can take pictures with her phone.
Although the An and Pei families did not know what An Ling was planning to do, they did not stop her.
They still needed to discuss the information they had learned tonight, especially to ask Pei Jiyue what she was thinking. Since An Ling had gone upstairs first, they didn't need to make an excuse to avoid her.
Everyone at the table was preoccupied with their own thoughts, and naturally, no one was in the mood to stay downstairs to chat and laugh after the meal.
After dinner, everyone went their separate ways.
An Ling had already hidden it in the closet. She had put her phone on silent mode and airplane mode, and only a small gap was left in the closet door so that the phone camera could capture the scene inside the room.
Everything is ready except for the two main characters entering the house.
Xuan Rui made an excuse to go for a walk in the garden to digest her food and left first. She planned to come in through the back door and then sneak up to the top floor via the side stairs. This way, she could most likely avoid other people and prevent them from discovering that she had gone to the top floor, which was not inhabited at all.
Pei Jinhao and his family also made an excuse that they were too tired from a full day's flight and went back to their rooms.
One of them had to wait until both the An and Pei families returned to their rooms before sneaking up to the rooftop, while the rest had to wait for Pei Jinhao to finish meeting Xuan Rui before telling them whether the night's operation could proceed as planned.
The remaining members of the An and Pei families all gathered in the study.
“Jiyue,” Pei Jinwen carefully chose his words, “Grandma didn’t mean anything by it, she just wanted to know why you let Pei Jinxuan and the others stay?”
“Yes, Ji Yue, they’re already prepared to do something so outrageous, we should just kick them out!” Pei Yuansi said indignantly.
Pei Jiyue glanced at Pei Mingyu, who was silent with his head down, before speaking her thoughts:
"I want to know if Mom will agree or not."
After Pei Jiyue finished speaking, the study remained quiet for a long time.
Everyone understood what she meant.
Pei Jiyue took the initiative to ask Pei Jinhao to stay, so that he could continue his plan and ask Xuan Rui to help him drug the Pei siblings.
Pei Jiyue wanted to know whether her mother would choose to become Pei Jinhao's accomplice, and whether she would choose to push her child into the fire pit again and again in order to cover up her past mistakes.
"I just want an answer."
Pei Jiyue continued:
“This is very important to me, and I believe my brother feels the same way, right?”
Pei Mingyu finally looked up at her younger sister, nodded, and then, as if having made up her mind, solemnly looked at Pei Yuansi:
"Dad, let's do a paternity test for me, my sister, and me."
Pei Yuansi stared at him in astonishment, and after a moment of stunned silence, she said excitedly:
"No! What are you thinking! You and Jiyue are both my children. Don't think nonsense. There's no need for any paternity test!"
Seeing Pei Yuansi's firm attitude, the Pei siblings couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
After being hit by so many things tonight, their painful hearts finally felt a glimmer of warmth.
But on this matter, they cannot listen to Pei Yuansi.
Because they knew that their fathers were feeling no less wronged and in pain than they were.
“Dad,” Pei Jiyue continued, “I know you’re doing this for our own good, but it’s not fair to either of us if we don’t get a definite answer to this. Don’t you want to know the truth?”
"The truth is that you are all my children!" Pei Yuansi said, her eyes red and her breathing rapid.
"Brother," Pei Yuning said, looking at the three of them who were clearly considering each other's interests but had ended up in a standoff, "the two children just want an answer."
“The deed is done. Even if you can ignore it, it will still be a thorn that will forever remain between you and Mingyu Jiyue.”
"Since that's the case, let's get to the bottom of things and deal with the rest later."
Pei Yuansi did not reply immediately, but turned away to calm herself down.
Once his breathing had calmed down, he turned back and quietly agreed to the two children's suggestion.
Pei Jiyue didn't want to wait, because she knew there would definitely be a confrontation tomorrow morning, and whatever the outcome, she wanted to know before then.
I can only feel at ease leaving this matter to my own family.
Pei Yuansi and the other two cannot go out tonight, otherwise Xuan Rui might become suspicious when she returns and finds that her husband and child are not there.
Pei Chuyao offered to come, and after leaving the study, she took the samples from her elder brother, nephew, and niece to Pei's hospital.
In order to avoid being discovered by others, the remaining people also left the study one by one at different times.
Now they want to know three things: the results of the test, Xuan Rui's choice, and what An Ling was doing.
Since Anling said not to worry about her, they didn't dare to contact her rashly, for fear that they might disturb her while she was doing something important. So they could only endure it and return to their own rooms.
Pei Jinhao left his room around 8:30. He was worried that he would run into other people, but he found that he had no trouble at all and did not see a single person.
He thought to himself that heaven was on his side, and pushed open the door, only to find Xuan Rui already waiting inside.
Upon seeing Pei Jinhao enter, Xuan Rui's expression became extremely unnatural. If she could, she truly wished she could never have any further connection with this person.
But ironically, they had dated for a while, and she even cheated on him after they got married.
After marrying Pei Yuansi and having two children, she discovered that she actually really enjoyed life in the Pei family.
Her husband is considerate and gentle, and her children are lovely and sensible.
Continuing her relationship with Pei Jinhao would subject her to both moral and ethical dilemmas, so she took the initiative to end the illicit relationship. Fortunately, Pei Jinhao did not pursue the matter further.
She thought her life would continue peacefully, but how did she end up running into Pei Jinhao when she went for a paternity test?
He's now using this to threaten her into meeting him.
Although she didn't know what Pei Jinhao wanted to say to her, as she grew older, Xuan Rui felt that she had become clear-headed and had completely seen through Pei Jinhao's character.
He's a complete scumbag, and it's absolutely no good if a scumbag like him comes looking for her now.
How could I have been so blind to fall in love with someone like that?
"Speak, why did you choose to meet me this way? What exactly do you want to say?"
Xuan Rui cursed her younger self in her heart, but on the surface she had to control her angry expression so as not to upset Pei Jinhao.
"Is there anything we can't discuss by phone? What if my family sees us and misunderstands?"
