The Hidden Heiress Is a Secret Big Shot

Chapter 231: Chapter 231 The Shen Family Are All Old Double Standards Chapter 231: Chapter 231 The Shen Family Are All Old Double Standards “President Shen misunderstood.”

Pei Jue reached out to unbutton his shirt, letting some air in, his entire demeanor cold and sharp, with a murderous intent lingering around him.

His mouth carried a slightly mischievous smile.

“I kept him because he still has a bigger role to play. Xiao Wu is worried he will tarnish the Shen Family’s reputation. President Shen, you also don’t want Xiao Wu to worry about you, right?”

Upon hearing that this matter concerned his sister, the displeasure on Shen Boyi’s face diminished significantly.

If it’s his sister’s intent, that indeed makes a difference!

His sister was the smartest and kindest little princess in the world; whatever she said was right. It didn’t matter what she said, it was definitely not a problem!

Pei Jue also knew how much the Shen Family valued and cherished Qingwu.

“Xiao Wu is worried you will worry about her, so she doesn’t plan to tell you about this. However, considering the complex relationships within the Pei Clan, I’m also worried that something might go awry. I hope President Shen will also take good care of Xiao Wu.”

His words were earnest, his tone sincere.

It was clear that he was considering Qingwu, and the genuine concern couldn’t be feigned; anyone with a discerning eye could sense Pei Jue’s care and affection for Qingwu.

The expression on Shen Boyi’s face appeared much more pleasant.

“You don’t need to tell me, I know what to do! I will arrange for someone to secretly protect Xiao Wu and not disturb her!”

His sister was just too naive. If she knew she had encountered such a dangerous situation, the Shen Family could directly blow up the Pei Family!

Knowing that his sister was worried about them, Shen Boyi’s heart softened immensely!

His sister, how could she be so good?

Shen Boyi was heartbroken!

“Though it’s a family affair of the Pei Clan, whether for Shaojia or Xiao Wu, I’d like to ask presumptuously, what does President Pei plan to do about it?”

Even if Qingwu would not marry Pei Jue in the future, Shen Shaojia was still a child of the Pei Family, and in terms of bloodline, it was an unbreakable relationship.

For now, Shen Shaojia didn’t bear the surname Pei, but Elder Pei had already added her name to the genealogy and planned to transfer all his shares in the Pei Corporation to Shen Shaojia.

In this way, Shen Shaojia would also face numerous challenges!

Shen Boyi’s tone was somewhat icy.

“President Pei should understand, Shaojia is the same to me as Xiao Wu. If the Pei Family cannot ensure her safety, I might not allow her to return! Including Xiao Wu, if President Pei genuinely likes our Xiao Wu, you must also consider her future.”

“The daughter of the Shen Family shouldn’t marry into a dangerous family.”

To put it unpleasantly, the incident involving Pei Jue’s mother back then caused an uproar in the circles of the wealthy. If Qingwu ended up with a similar fate after marrying, the entire Shen Family wouldn’t survive it!

Just imagining it, Shen Boyi felt like his heart was breaking!

Pei Jue knew Shen Boyi was considering his sister, and it was out of love for Qingwu and Shen Shaojia that he would say such intense words.

It was because the incident with the Pei Family targeting Qingwu had scared him!

“I’ve almost settled matters within the Pei Family. I promise that before Shaojia returns home and Xiao Wu enters, everything will be dealt with cleanly.”

“Hopefully so!”

To gain a promise from Pei Jue was enough to greatly satisfy Shen Boyi.

He knew well the complexity of the Pei Family and did not probe further for details.

Anyway, all he cared about was just his two precious sisters!

Hanging up the phone, the serene and strategic aura on Shen Boyi’s face instantly vanished, becoming as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, pacing in his office.

After pondering for a long time, Shen Boyi finally dialed Qingwu’s number.

“Xiao Wu, what are you doing? Missing your big brother?”

“Shopping with Mimi, what’s up?”

Hearing the calm tone of Qingwu, only then did Shen Boyi’s heart settle down.

Even handling an international acquisition worth tens of billions didn’t make him this anxious and nervous, but when it came to Qingwu’s matters, Shen Boyi was sweating with worry!

“It’s nothing. If anything happens, be sure to tell your big brother! If you run out of shopping money, also look for your big brother!”

After hanging up the phone, Shen Boyi immediately sent a sum of money to Qingwu.

Qingwu looked at the bank’s transfer notification and, combined with Shen Boyi’s earlier tone, instantly understood that Pei Jue had told Shen Boyi about the attack she encountered…

Her big brother didn’t ask her directly, probably because he was afraid she’d worry about the Shen Family?

Using this method was a sign of Shen Boyi’s unique concern!

Su Mi looked at the message on Qingwu’s phone, her expression turning slightly twisted in envy, “Qingwu darling, does your brother still need a sister? Can someone like me work? Or perhaps are they hiring leg accessories? I can be shameless!”

Qingwu cast her a gentle glance, chuckling lightly.

“My brother doesn’t need a sister, but he does need a girlfriend. Do you want to consider it?”

Su Mi immediately put on a bizarre expression, as though she almost bit her tongue, shaking her head repeatedly, her face turning red!

“No, no, no, definitely not! Your family is too smart; I can’t drag down your family genes!”

Thinking about her grades, which were as bad as a phone number, if she were to be with the Shen Family, it would be too embarrassing…

Su Mi touched her almost burning face and hurriedly changed the topic.

“Darling, we still haven’t found the person who sent me the message. Where should we look?”

Su Mi hadn’t forgotten their original purpose of coming to Antique Street, which was to find the person who messaged her saying they had a relic of her mother.

Qingwu glanced at Tian Liang, who was absorbed in data processing before his computer.

“Found the person? I’ve played two rounds of Minesweeper while waiting; what’s taking you so long?”

Tian Liang sensed Qingwu’s chilly gaze and immediately closed the game page on his computer, switching to the data.

Close one, he almost got caught by their boss playing games!

All the blame could only be put on the interesting games recently developed by Beidou Star…

“Found! That person is now Elder Pei Liu’s assistant and is named Lian Ousheng. Quite a unique name, don’t you think…”

Su Mi nodded immediately, “Yes, he used to be notorious in the Black Dragon Gang, known in the world as Lotus Brother. But he was clearly part of the Black Dragon Gang; how did he become Elder Pei Liu’s assistant?”

Su Mi couldn’t figure it out. With neither Lian Ousheng nor Elder Pei Liu seemingly having a reason to specifically call her to Antique Street, it was puzzling.

“Boss, Elder Shi asked you to report to school next week.”

Qingwu raised an eyebrow, “Has Elder gone to Beijing University?”

“Seems like it; he wants you to visit him at the school tomorrow. He seems quite anxious. Ah, it’s been a while since I experienced student life!”

Qingwu silently glanced at him.

The children of Beidou Star never had the experience of attending school. From the moment they were selected, they were taken away from their families and sent to Beidou Star for one experiment after another!

Tian Liang and the others wanting to follow her to visit the school was understandable.

She stood up, “Don’t worry, I will fulfill the promise I made to you all.”

She wanted to bring the members of Beidou Star back to the normal track of life.

Even though they were in deep trouble, surrounded by darkness, she was determined to lead them toward the light.

Tian Liang laughed heartily, feeling extremely touched inside…

Facts proved they hadn’t followed the wrong leader. Whatever Qingwu did, she would always be Beidou Star’s leader!
