Pei Yu glanced at Doctor Zhang.
This woman’s appearance could not be considered breathtaking, yet there was a kind of chilling beauty about her. Especially her demeanor, which seemed to look down upon others from above, strangely appealed to Pei Yu. It evoked a strong desire in Pei Yu to conquer.
To have this woman beneath him...
Pei Yu’s eyes flickered slightly, clearly, he had already started plotting in his heart.
There is a saying "even a mighty dragon cannot crush a local snake." In Pei Yu’s view, he was the local tyrant in Taihang Town.
And as for the outsiders Tie Hailan and Doctor Zhang, no matter their capabilities, what could they do?
Since they were on his turf, they had to play by his rules!
If things didn’t go as planned, if they truly provoked him, he had numerous ways to make someone disappear!
After all, he was already quite familiar with such matters.
At this moment, Tie Hailan and Doctor Zhang were unaware that they were effectively lambs entering the tiger’s den.
After inviting the two into He Mansion, Pei Yu busied himself with arranging the meal.
Tie Hailan, concerned about He Su, tried to probe Pei Yu for information about He Su during the meal.
She believed that Pei Yu was definitely hiding something!
It was an intuition, but she trusted it completely.
However, Pei Yu was tight-lipped, despite Tie Hailan’s persistent questioning, she couldn’t extract any useful information from him.
However, because of this, Tie Hailan felt increasingly uneasy.
He Su must have encountered some trouble! Thought Tie Hailan.
After the meal, Pei Yu directed his servants to arrange separate rooms for Tie Hailan and Doctor Zhang.
The interior of He Mansion seemed very spacious. Tie Hailan had visited He Mansion before, but those familiar faces were nowhere to be seen. In their place were robust women with sun-bronzed skin, appearing quite formidable, from The Outside.
These women from The Outside had appearances rougher and more barbaric compared to the native women of Dayuan.
Tie Hailan puzzled over how these people from The Outside could be inside the tiny He Mansion.
Tie Hailan noticed another oddity.
Logically, with the friendship between her and He Su, she should have been treated as a distinguished guest in He Mansion. Pei Yu, merely a Concubine, was supposed to merely accompany her. The rightful individuals to receive her should have been He Su and the Main Husband Luo Yang.
But since entering He Mansion, several hours had passed, yet she had not seen He Su, Luo Yang, or even Gao Jian.
Since rising to power, Pei Yu had become lawless.
Now enamored with the cold and noble Doctor Zhang, he was busy showering her with concern and attentiveness, but he failed to notice that Tie Hailan had commenced becoming suspicious of him.
But even if he knew, what of it?
Pei Yu’s obsequious demeanour also somewhat pleased Doctor Zhang. After all, it signified that she was popular and charming. Being pursued by men, especially a married man , was somewhat enjoyable for her.
Thus, the two of them found great enjoyment in their conversation.
Meanwhile, Tie Hailan was left out.
Later, Pei Yu received a piece of news.
Phoenix Blood, Liang Shujun, he had actually returned! Someone had seen him appear in Taihang Town!
