Ah! The Villains I Forced to Turn Evil Can Read My Mind-Chapter 106: Pei Fenglong: Why didn’t I be notified of the notice of the unified diamond ring this year
Furious, Pei Bu Xian quickly locked onto Pei Mu and Pei Ci: "Is it you two? You perverted twins!"
Pei Mu and Pei Ci widened their eyes in disbelief and retorted in unison: "You call us perverts when you're the one who's one? Looks like you're the thief shouting 'catch the thief'!"
"If it was really me, I wouldn’t have said anything!" Pei Bu Xian turned his face towards his brothers, "Who was it? Hurry up and confess!"
The men scanned each other warily.
Pei Youchuan crossed his arms and, unable to hide his irritation, said: "It’s not me!"
Pei Fengnong, with a righteous expression, said: "It’s not me either."
Pei Che looked sharply at Pei Yuan: "It wasn’t me."
All the brothers turned in unison to look at the eldest brother, Pei Yuan.
Pei Yuan sneered dismissively and snorted coldly.
He turned and walked into the restroom of the lounge: "If even Qiao Chuchu can’t tell if it’s a dream or reality, why are you all taking it so seriously?"
He squeezed a large amount of hand sanitizer into his palm and carefully rubbed his fingertips: "I think none of you are thinking clearly."
Pei Bu Xian stood frozen, beginning to doubt himself: "So, it was just Qiao Chuchu’s dream?"
"Of course it was a dream," Pei Yuan wiped his hands dry, turned around, and leaned against the sink. "If it wasn’t any of you, could it have been me?"
He spoke calmly: "I’m the head of the Pei family, do you think you should doubt me?"
Pei Bu Xian was at a loss for words, furrowing his brows and muttering: "I wouldn’t doubt big brother..."
The other brothers exchanged looks.
They indeed wouldn’t doubt their eldest brother.
Pei Yuan smiled in satisfaction, walked up to Pei Bu Xian, and patted his shoulder: "You need to fix that crazy temper of yours. You’re already in your twenties, yet still act like a child. You blow up at every little thing and even cry. Look at your brothers, none of us act like that. When something happens, use your brain."
Pei Bu Xian hugged his toy like a cat being scolded, his entire aura drooping: "Okay."
Pei Yuan smirked, and brushed past his brothers.
Second brother Pei Che, staring at his back, his eyes deep with heavy thoughts, said: "Big brother, where did Qiao Chuchu’s pink diamond go?"
Pei Yuan stopped in his tracks and calmly turned his head: "I’ve kept it safe."
Pei Che’s face changed instantly as he stepped forward and questioned: "The New Year’s gift I gave her, and you kept it? What’s that about?"
"Is that a problem?" Pei Yuan blinked in confusion, replying seriously: "Chuchu’s always been forgetful. It’s hard enough for you to earn money, what if she lost the pink diamond worth over 100 million? Don’t you care?"
Pei Che’s smile faded as he coldly said: "But I heard you bought a four hundred million pink diamond ring. Are you planning to give that to Qiao Chuchu?"
Pei Yuan’s face darkened.
Pei Che sneered: "Big brother, are you trying to compete with me?"
"Why would I need to compete?" Pei Yuan raised an eyebrow in disbelief: "We’re family. Qiao Chuchu is our little sister, any gift we give her is to make her happy. There’s no other meaning."
Pei Che’s smile gradually disappeared: "Then why did you hide my ring?"
"I said I was keeping it safe for you." Pei Yuan’s tone grew cold: "I don’t have any ulterior motives."
"Of course, the ones who do something are the first to emphasize that they haven’t done anything." Pei Che extended his hand, his expression mocking: "Give me back my ring."
Pei Yuan: "I had my assistant send it to my safe."
Pei Che: "?"
Pei Yuan smiled faintly, his voice certain: "If you know the password to my safe, go ahead and get it, second brother."
Pei Che’s face turned pale with fury: "Pei Yuan!!"
Pei Yuan smirked, turning to leave.
Pei Che, enraged, gasped for breath: "You’d better watch your new ring closely! Be careful, I might lock it in a safe too!"
Pei Yuan waved his hand carelessly, not looking back.
Pei Che clenched his fists, seething!
The other brothers stood there, completely bewildered by the exchange.

Pei Bu Xian, clutching his toy, said with a serious expression: "I think I smell smoke."
Pei Mu and Pei Ci nodded in agreement: "I agree."
Pei Fengnong, confused, asked: "Didn’t we always give New Year gifts together? Why didn’t you tell us we were all getting rings this year?"
Pei Youchuan, with a questioning expression, said: "Fourth brother, is it possible the rings weren’t part of the unified gift? Maybe they have a special meaning?"
Pei Fengnong was puzzled: "Isn’t it just jewelry? What special meaning could it have?"
Pei Youchuan sighed deeply: "...It’s a diamond ring. Do you know what it means to give someone a diamond ring?"
Pei Fengnong: "I know, it means Qiao Chuchu has an extra ring."
Pei Youchuan: "Huh?"
Pei Mu: "Huh??"
Pei Ci: "Huh???"
Pei Bu Xian: "Huh???"
Pei Fengnong, serious: "Qiao Chuchu doesn’t look good in jade, she’s only suited for jewelry. So, if we’re buying something, we should get her the rarest diamonds, after all, if we’re giving her a gift, it should be the best, right?"
Pei Mu: "..."
Pei Ci: "..."
Pei Bu Xian: "..."
Pei Youchuan: "..."
Pei Fengnong continued earnestly: "So we decided to buy diamond rings this year, right?"
Pei Youchuan, speechless, raised his hand to cover his eyes, looking as if he was suffering: "Yes, diamond rings, all diamond rings."
He patted Pei Fengnong’s shoulder: "The most important thing is for the eight of us to have a good New Year."
Saying this, he walked away with his eyes covered.
Pei Fengnong stood still, still clueless.
Pei Bu Xian, with a serious expression, shoved the toy into his arms: "Fourth brother, you need this more than I do."
Pei Fengnong: "?"
Pei Mu and Pei Ci patted his shoulder in unison, saying: "Fourth brother, next time big brother and second brother argue, stay away. I’m afraid you won’t be able to mediate."
Pei Fengnong: "?"
He felt like he was being looked at like a fool.
He walked out of the lounge, only to see six brothers all sneaking peeks at the door to Qiao Chuchu’s hospital room.
Each of them was secretly peering through the small window into the room.
He approached, holding the toy: "Is Qiao Chuchu changing clothes in there?"
Pei Youchuan glared at him in disdain: "Are you crazy? How could we watch her change clothes? Of course, someone came in!"
Pei Fengnong froze, pushed past his brothers, and squeezed up to the glass door to look inside.
Lin Shen was dressed in a black cashmere coat, with a well-tailored suit underneath, clearly having dressed up carefully.
He was sitting at Qiao Chuchu’s bedside, his hands resting on his knees, looking at her with concern: "How do you feel?"
Qiao Chuchu, sitting stiffly at the head of the bed, smiled and shook her head: "I’m fine."
【Damn it, why do I always meet Senior Lin Shen when I look like this? At least let me comb my hair or put on some lipstick! Last time it was cake on my face, now it’s a sickly look. I wonder if I look exhausted right now.】
Lin Shen was stunned.
Qiao Chuchu certainly looked exhausted.
Her reddish-brown hair was loosely styled into a slanted braid in front of her, wearing a sky-blue hospital gown. Her pale face had a faint greenish tint, and her lips were also very pale.
But despite all this, she still had a fragile beauty.
Like snow trembling on a red plum branch.
He smiled gently: "Qiao Chuchu, I’ve noticed that you have your own beauty in every moment. Even when you're sick, you're a beautiful sick girl."
