Tian Wenbai waved his hand for Old Han to leave.
He stood in front of the window dazing for a while again. Heâd originally wanted to smoke, but the moment he thought of how Gu Lingling and Fu Jing both didnât like him smoking, he put the cigarette back even though heâd already taken it out.
"Fourth Young Master," Old Han came back in after heâd left, "that woman has appeared."
Heâd thought it would take some effort to find that woman named Peng Sasa, but hadnât expected her to come knocking on his door herself.
"Do you want to see her?" Old Han asked.
"See her." Why wouldnât he?
Heâd just been worrying he couldnât find an opportunity.
Peng Sasa was wearing a white shirt, jeans, and canvas shoes today, carrying a backpack, her hair tied up high. She looked very youthful and lively, but in Tian Wenbaiâs eyes, it was an imitation.
A pirated version of Gu Linglingâs outfit.
Linglingâs favorite was exactly this kind of fresh, clean style.
"Hello." Seeing Tian Wenbai come in, Peng Sasa said with a smile.
The smile was very Gu Lingling.
And also... an eyesore.
"Hello." Out of politeness, he nodded. "I heard youâre looking for me?"
"Yes." Peng Sasa sat down smiling and said, "I want to talk to you about my sister..."
"Stop." Tian Wenbai cut her off with a faint smile. "Sheâs not your sister, so donât go randomly claiming relatives. And the reason I came to see you is not to listen to this kind of crap."
"Pass a message to Peng Jiayuan." Tian Wenbai said directly, "No matter what his goal is, I will never let him succeed."
"And that person behind himâif theyâve got any sense, theyâd better never show up for the rest of their life."
Otherwise, he definitely wouldnât let them off.
"As for you, just looking at that face of yours really makes my skin crawl." Tian Wenbai had always been very gentlemanly before and rarely said such nasty things. You could tell how furious he was. "If you still want to keep that surgically altered face, youâd better never appear in front of me again."
"Otherwise... I wonât be able to resist the urge to destroy it."
His voice was as flat as usual, but Peng Sasa could hear the clashing blades hidden in it.
Why was it that they both looked like Tian Wanfeng, yet Gu Lingling could gain Tian Wenbaiâs favor, while she had to constantly endure this kind of treatment?
"Then I was overthinking it." Peng Sasa pressed her lips together. "I just donât want you all to be..."
"Enough." Tian Wenbai stood up and walked out. "You just need to pass my words to Peng Jiayuan. And tell him, if he wants to be a turtle with its head pulled in, then he can just keep hiding."
Peng Sasa, "..."
Sheâd originally planned to sow a bit of discord with Tian Wenbai and make things difficult for Gu Lingling, but hadnât expected Tian Wenbaiâs attitude to be this clear-cut?
Could something have happened that she didnât know about?
Looks like itâs about time to consider a bit of cooperation with the Yang Family.
Peng Sasa stood at the entrance of Overseas Chinese Mansion, glancing up at the relatively tall building.
She wasnât going to give up. One day she would make Tian Wenbai believe that she might be more suitable than Gu Lingling to be Tian Wanfengâs granddaughter.
Those benefits were too huge; there was no way she alone could swallow them.
If Tian Wenbai was willing, she could cooperate with him.
It was a pity her feeler hadnât even been voiced before Tian Wenbai rejected her.
Sure enough, the one who takes the initiative never gets a good deal.
The Yang Family is the same.
Peng Sasa slung her backpack over her shoulder and decisively walked away.
If things didnât work out with Tian Wenbai, maybe other members of the Tian Family would be very interested.
Itâs just that when the time came, this muddy water would probably get even muddier.
