Chapter 38 (1/2)

“I’ll never hold a press conference. Never! I just don’t believe what my elder brother has said. He won’t force me to kill myself just for that woman’s sake!” Wang Yunxi believed that her elder brother could do nothing to her if she outright refused to do what he had asked.

“It’s all we can do now.” Mu Yunhai believed that Pei Xiuyuan would never force his younger sister to die.

Pei Xiuyuan could not force her indeed. But, he could use some other way.

He had waited for Wang Yunxi for a week but she did not have any intention to hold a press conference.

He returned to the old manor.

“Brother…” Wang Yunxi acted cute in front of him. She hoped that her elder brother would forgive her this time.

“When are you planning on holding the press conference?” Pei Xiuyuan looked at her calmly.

“Brother, are you planning on ruining me?” Wang Yunxi hugged his arm and acted like a spoiled girl in front of him.

“Then, why didn’t you think carefully before you took that action? How could you do that kind of thing?”

“I told you before! I did that because I didn’t know that she’s your wife! If I had known that earlier, I would never have done that! I want you to live happily with her no matter how much I hate her! Surely I’ll treat her nicely for your sake!” Wang Yunxi was implying that she cared for her elder brother deeply. At the same time, she was also indicating that Lu Man did not care for him deeply. Otherwise, how could Lu Man want so badly to ruin his younger sister?

Pei Xiuyuan understood her meaning clearly. Unknowingly, his younger sister had grown into such a woman. He did not know whether to be happy about it or not. When did she learn to do such tricks?

“That means you don’t want to hold a press conference, is that right?”

“I don’t want to!” Wang Yunxi held onto her decision resolutely.

“Fine.”

Wang Yunxi was so delighted that she smiled happily. Her elder brother did adore her!

“From now on, you’re grounded. You cannot leave your room. The servants will send you your meals. If you want to leave the house, go and hold a press conference first.”

What Pei Xiuyuan said sounded like a slap to Wang Yunxi’s face. Her smile froze.

“Brother!”

“Ask somebody to inform me when you have made your decision.” Pei Xiuyuan ignored her the minute he finished talking.

“Damn it!” Wang Yunxi was so angry that she started to throw a tantrum again. Her elder brother had been acting weirdly since he got together with Lu Man.

But, did his elder brother assume that she would bow down to her by just grounding her?

He looked down on her indeed! She was not even afraid of death! So what if she was grounded?

In fact, Wang Yunxi was too naive.

Pei Xiuyuan not only grounded her but also prohibited her from using the phone and laptop. There were only books in her room and they were all about proper behavior.

She felt nothing on the first day. She felt that it was nice to sleep and be lazy.

But, she almost lost it after a week. She would go crazy surely!

“Let me out! Tell my brother that I’m willing to hold a press conference now!” She felt that everything would be better than being grounded even if it was a humiliating experience for her!

PA Wang soon heard about it.

“CEO Pei, Miss has agreed to hold a press conference.”

“Alright.” Pei Xiuyuan was busy with his work. He did not even look up. He knew how his younger sister was.

Mu Yunhai thought that Wang Yunxi could endure much longer. But, he did not know that she would give up so easily.

He scolded her, “Why did you agree to that? How can we face the public from now on?”

“Then, we could go overseas and stay there. It’s better than being grounded in my room. I’m almost going crazy now!”

“He has only grounded you and you cannot even endure that. What else are you able to do?” She was indeed a spoiled child who could do nothing.
