Boss, Don't Act All Mighty, Miss Pei is Married to Your Brother!

Chapter 21: Chests

"Pei Xin, what a pleasant way to show your presence!"

Lu Li's voice boomed across the hall. He had just come back from recording his statement down at the police station. He did not expect Pei Xin to have the guts to call the police. First, she scared Ling Xue, and now she was bullying his nephew. She was just full of surprises at this point!

"What, are you going to pretend you didn't? What's your next step? To pitifully beg for forgiveness?"

When Pei Xin heard Lu Li's voice, she felt nauseous for some reason and gagged out loud.

"Wow... Pei Xin. Even after all these years, you're still a lying stinking b*tch!"

Pei Xin looked at Lu Li with repressed emotions. She was tired of begging. She remembered every single detail that happened at the hotel. She had a firsthand experience of just how cold-blooded and heartless those demons were.

Lu Li was starting to get annoyed with Pei Xin's silent protest.

Sun Che saw that his savior had arrived and quickly ran all the way. He hugged Lu Li's leg and opened his arms. After Lu Li carried him, he turned around to point his tongue out at Ling Lin.

Lu Li looked at the wounds on the child carefully. They were not serious. Due to his delicate skin, some of the marks would only fade away after a few days. Still, Lu Li was heartbroken from the scars.

In the Lu family, he had the best relationship with his sister, Lu Nan. Although Lu Huai was their older brother, they did not have the same mother. On the other hand, he and Lu Nan not only had the same mother, but they were also twins.

Lu Huai never played with him when he was younger. Lu Nan, however, would always make time for her twin brother and play together.

He was the more mischievous twin so sometimes Lu Nan had taken the blame for him before. Because of that, he loved his sister's son.

"Tell me, did this b*stard hurt my favorite niece? How should I punish him? Should we throw him into the ocean?" He stared provokingly at Pei Xin. When a trace of panic and fear flashed across the woman's eyes, his mood lightened up. He turned to Sun Che and coaxed him softly, "He hit you here, right? Should I break his hands instead?"

"Yes! Good idea! Break his hands and beat that b*stard to death!!" A five-year-old child was too young to know what was right or wrong. He only knew how to imitate and learn from the people he looked up to.

When Pei Xin heard this, she shielded Ling Lin behind her. "If you touch him, I can guarantee that Ling Xue will never get my kidney in this life!"

Pei Xin did not have any bargaining chips, but she knew that Ling Xue would not let her go if she didn't give her kidney away. Even if Pei Xin knew that she was being forced to give her kidney away, this was still the only bargaining chip she had.

As expected, Lu Li frowned and narrowed his eyes. "Do you think you're the only one with a kidney?"

"Then why don't you try finding another donor?!" Based on the time she spent with the Lu family, Pei Xin picked up on the fact that Ling Xue got into a car accident because of Lu Li. Therefore, Lu Li would never go against Ling Xue's wishes, probably out of guilt.

"You don't get to say something like that!" Lu Li was furious. He couldn't accept Pei Xin's remarks. Until now, she's been the reason for things going out of control. As he was about to raise his hands, his palm stopped in mid-air!

"What do you think you're doing?" Lu Huai grabbed Lu Li's hand. He looked relaxed but no matter how hard Lu Li struggled, his hand could not break free.

"W-why are you here?"

Lu Huai glanced at the two who were standing at the side. For some reason, the child's eyes gave him a sense of familiarity.

"Why? Am I not allowed to come home?" As he spoke, he shook off Lu Li's hand.

Lu Li lowered his head and twisted his wrist. There was a flash of hatred in his eyes that went past Lu Huai. Lu Huai had always embarrassed him in situations, and now he was embarrassing him in front of Pei Xin! However, the moment he looked up, his disgruntled look turned obedient.

The fear he had since he was young was not without reason. It was best to not resist his brother. "Of course you are."

Lu Huai knew what Lu Li was thinking. Lu Li had always been spoiled ever since he was a child. He always snatched whatever he wanted and was beaten up by Lu Huai every time. At first, Lu Li would complain to their father, Lu Yu. However, every time he complained, Lu Huai would always return the favor of beating him up when their father was not home. Whenever Lu Li saw him thereafter, he would always try his best to avoid his brother.

Lu Li's mother, Yuan Ge, begged Lu Yu to send Lu Li to the company to take control of the Lu Corporation. Even at that point, Lu Li was a cynical young master. Why would he put himself through all that pressure? When their names showed up for discussion, he would be compared to Lu Huai and be publicly criticized.

Therefore, they were only brothers on the surface, but if one looked closer, they were more like rivals. There was no such thing as kinship between the rich and the powerful.
