Chapter 187 The White Moonlight Who Died Early in the Substitute Novel (24)

Jiang Ciyou was instantly stunned, her eyes filled with astonishment and confusion: "Jin Xiu, what... what's wrong?"

Pei Jinxiu was extremely annoyed. His brows were furrowed, and he raised his voice impatiently, "Do I have to say it again? Slap me!"

Although Jiang Ciyou didn't understand why, she gritted her teeth, raised her hand, and slapped Pei Jinxiu hard across the face.

Pei Jinxiu's first reaction after being hit was to angrily retaliate. His raised hand trembled slightly in the air, his eyes burning with rage, but just as it was about to fall...

He suddenly realized that this was completely different from the feeling that Musi'an gave him. It turned out that only when Musi'an hit him would he feel that excitement and desire for more.

He slowly lowered his hand, his heart filled with mixed feelings. He was shocked by his own twisted mentality, yet also felt a faint excitement and longing.

Do I really only feel the effects of An An's 'punishment'?

This realization shattered Pei Jinxiu's view of love. He originally thought that Jiang Ciyou's gentleness and obedience and her boldness in bed were what he loved, but now he felt that he had been out of his mind. Why did he choose a fake pheasant instead of a phoenix?

……

Seeing Pei Jinxiu about to leave, Jiang Ciyou hurriedly reached out and grabbed his arm. A hint of embarrassment flashed in her eyes as she said timidly in a low voice, "Jinxiu, what's wrong with you? You were the one who asked me to hit you."

Pei Jinxiu frowned slightly, glanced at her coldly, and said in a flat tone, "I know, you stay here, I have to go." He then tried to pull his arm away.

Seeing this, Jiang Ciyou grabbed him tightly, her face full of anxiety, and said quickly, "Wait, Jin Xiu, Miss Mu just said that you only want to marry me because she told us to get married, is that true?"

Her eyes were fixed on Pei Jinxiu, a mixture of expectation and fear in them.

Pei Jinxiu stopped in his tracks, looking at her coldly, and uttered three words in a chilling tone: "What do you think?"

Jiang Ciyou thought Pei Jinxiu was denying it, and a hint of smugness welled up in her heart, but then she heard Pei Jinxiu impatiently continue, "Do you think I would marry you if it weren't for An'an's request?"

At the same time, he forcefully swung his arm, shoving Jiang Ciyou's hand away, turned around and walked towards the wheelchair, quickly pushing it towards the door and slamming it shut with a "bang".

Jiang Ciyou's face turned pale and then black in an instant. She was so angry that she trembled all over and shouted at the door, "Pei Jinxiu, you bastard, how dare you insult me ​​like this?"

After she finished yelling, her emotions gradually calmed down, but a sense of panic welled up inside her.

That's not how it should be; things shouldn't have turned out this way.

Why does he still love Mu Si'an? What's the point of everything she's done?

Her eyes revealed a hint of confusion and helplessness, and her breathing became rapid.

No, she needed to calm down. She had done so much and planned so much for Pei Jinxiu, and now they were getting married. She would soon be Mrs. Pei.

She absolutely cannot let Musi'an take all of this away.

She closed her eyes, trying to calm herself down. Suddenly, the image of Madam Pei appeared in her mind. "Yes, Madam Pei would never allow Mu Si'an to marry into the Pei family. Only I can."

As if grasping at a straw, she quickly picked up her phone and dialed Madam Pei's number, but all she heard was a busy signal. Undeterred, she dialed several more times, but still couldn't get through.

......................................................

Inside the ICU ward, Andrei's deep blue eyes were filled with excitement and gratitude: "Miss Mu, if it weren't for your recommendation, I'm afraid I would never have known in my life that there was such a difficult and valuable case for research. This intractable disease with cancer all over the body is simply a steep peak in the medical field waiting to be climbed!"

Cang Lan smiled slightly, her expression calm and indifferent: "It was nothing."

On the hospital bed, Pei Yazhi looked emaciated. In just a few days, she had become extremely thin, her skin was so pale that it was as if all life had been drained from her, her scalp was exposed, her sparse hair lay weakly on her scalp, and her eyes were sunken.

Hearing their conversation, she stared intently at Cang Lan, her mouth slightly open, and managed to utter a few words with difficulty: "You...you're the one who brought me here? What are you doing here?"

Seeing this, Andrei politely bowed and said, "Since you have something to say, I'll excuse myself for a moment." With that, he turned and left the ward.

Cang Lan slowly walked to Pei Yazhi's bedside, looked down at her, and said softly, "Madam Pei, it must be unbearable to struggle on the edge of life and death every day, right?"

Pei Yazhi, barely maintaining a shred of self-respect, weakly yet stubbornly replied, "I... cough cough, it's not your place to criticize me."

Cang Lan's lips curled into a meaningful smile: "Oh, right, there's something else I forgot to tell you. Pei Jinxiu is getting married to Jiang Ciyou soon. It seems he hasn't had a chance to tell you yet."

Upon hearing this, Pei Yazhi's eyes were filled with shock and anger, and her body trembled slightly: "You... this is impossible, you bitch, how dare you talk nonsense!" Her hands were thin and bony, tightly gripping the bed sheet, and she was panting heavily, her chest heaving violently.

Cang Lan's smile widened. He leaned close to Pei Yazhi's ear and whispered, as if it were a devil's whisper: "I personally chose this girlfriend for your son. This future daughter-in-law of the Pei family will surely give you a grandson. It's just a pity that you're not fortunate enough to enjoy it."

She paused, a ruthless glint in her eyes, "The Pei family's ability to make their fortune through drug trafficking and manufacturing started with your deceased husband. Don't worry, the Pei family's reputation won't just be ruined by your son; your dead husband won't rest in peace either."

Pei Yazhi's face instantly turned purplish-blue, her eyes widened as if they were about to bulge out of their sockets, her thin, stick-like hand waved weakly in the air, and then a gurgling sound came from her throat as she gasped for air, but it seemed that she could not get any air at all.

The next second, her body stiffened abruptly, her eyes widened, and she stared straight at the ceiling, while the heart monitor beside her emitted a long "beep."

Pei Yazhi is no longer online!

Cang Lan glanced at it expressionlessly, then turned and walked straight out of the ward.

Afterwards, Andrei concealed the news of Pei Yazhi's death and secretly dissected her body. He only announced Pei Yazhi's death when he found that he could not find anything of value.

To avoid trouble, the hospital colluded with Andre to cremate Pei Yazhi's body without authorization, claiming that the cancer cells had spread and that cremation was the only option to prevent infection.
