Chapter 96
"No, no, it won't happen..." Zhi Yao murmured, trying to defend Pei Chiyao.
But Pei Chiyao didn't give Zhi Yao a chance to speak, "I assume you must be Yao's mother? Do you know that before Yao found you, she was almost harmed?"
Zhi Yi and Ling Jue stiffened simultaneously.
"I know you are worried that I am only tempted by Yao's novelty and deceiving her, so you won't believe anything I say. But..." Pei Chiyao paused briefly, "In the half-year that Yao has been by my side, I have never let her get hurt. You want to protect her, and I want to protect her too. Since there can be one more person to protect her, why not?"
After saying this, Pei Chiyao lowered his gaze and looked at the naive Zhi Yao who was looking up at him, chuckling softly, "She's very happy by my side, isn't she?"
Zhi Yao looked up at Pei Chiyao and nodded.
She was indeed very happy, and she truly liked Pei Chiyao.
Hearing this, Zhi Yi felt a pang of bitterness in her heart. It wasn't that she didn't want to find Zhi Yao, but she really couldn't escape Ling Jue.
The Fox Clan and the Wolf Tribe could never be together! This was already a mistake! The reason she refused to tell Ling Jue was that she didn't want Yao to be imprisoned here as well.
She was born in the Fox Clan and grew up in the Fox Clan, she could never betray the Fox Clan. But this foolish wolf was actually willing to hand over Zhi Yao, if she didn't speak the truth, Ling Jue might really let Pei Chiyao take Zhi Yao away.
But she never imagined... that Yao would actually get involved with a human.
Zhi Yi closed her eyes and opened them again, her attitude resolute, "No. You are human, she is a fox, you two should not be together. Give Yao back to me, from now on, I will protect her myself, without your help."
Ling Jue also nodded in agreement, and suddenly he took a blank check out of his pocket and handed it to Pei Chiyao, "Two billion, leave my daughter."
He said expressionlessly, "Since you saved Yao, the entire Ling family owes you a favor. If you ever need our help, just say the word, and the Ling family will go to any lengths to assist you."
Although the Ling family rarely appeared in public, their power was well known. Many people had tried hard to establish connections with the Ling family, and a favor from the Ling family was invaluable.
Pei Chiyao sneered and also took out a black card, "The money on this card has no limit, spend as much as you want, just leave my wife."
Ling Jue almost coughed up blood in anger!
"She is my daughter!! What does it have to do with you?!"
Pei Chiyao didn't back down at all, "She is my wife, I've decided on her, does it have nothing to do with me?"
At first, he was polite, but Ling Jue and Zhi Yi wouldn't listen, so he had to be blunt.
"You haven't raised Yao for a single day, and until just now, you didn't even know of her existence, so you can't be considered Yao's father." He then looked at Zhi Yi, "Yao's mother, I can make you a deal. I'll help you escape him and help you and Yao live as humans from now on, and these matters will never disturb you again. But Yao must stay with me. What do you think?"
Ling Jue simply wanted to kill Pei Chiyao!
This brat, he even set his sights on Aunt Yi, "Do you dare? Pei Chiyao, do you think I won't kill you?!"
He became ruthless, and the air around him seemed to be filled with oppression.
Even Zhi Yi involuntarily trembled, this was the suppression of their race, unavoidable.
Zhi Yao was even more afraid and closed her eyes, frantically burrowing into Pei Chiyao's embrace.
But Pei Chiyao was not afraid at all, his brow even carried a hint of laziness, "You don't dare, if you kill me, you'll never have Yao recognize you as her father again."
Audacious! Utterly audacious!! Audacious to the extreme!
What on earth is this person! How dare he be so unrestrained in front of him? And what's more, every word he said made so much sense, what the hell is going on?
Ling Jue felt like his heart was trembling with anger.
Neither side was willing to back down.
Zhi Yao was also in a dilemma, she... she couldn't bear to part with either of them.
Zhi Yi's gaze visibly softened.
She wasn't quite sure about the identity of the man in front of her, but if he really had the ability to help them escape the turmoil between the two tribes, it meant that this man must be worthy of Yao's reliance.
But she was still worried, she couldn't gamble, couldn't gamble with Yao's happiness. What if this man didn't love Yao in the future... what would happen to Yao?
And moreover, she was increasingly concerned about one thing.
She waved her hand to Zhi Yao, "Yao, come here. Your mother will consider this, but now you must stay by my side."
Ling Jue also echoed, "Yes, yes! Yao, our house is really big and really nice, you'll definitely like it."
He had just met his daughter, and he couldn't bear to let her be taken away by Pei Chiyao.
Zhi Yao saw Zhi Yi and was reluctant to leave her, but she was also reluctant to leave Pei Chiyao.
The little girl was conflicted, looking back and forth between the two sides, and suddenly she slapped her forehead, coming up with a brilliant idea, "Can Pei Chiyao move in with us too, okay?"
She looked pitifully at Pei Chiyao, then at Zhi Yi.
Pei Chiyao didn't mind, he took out his phone and was already preparing to have the houses around the Ling family's residence bought.
Wherever Zhi Yao is, that's where his home will be.
Moreover, sometimes when he's not at home, he will worry about Zhi Yao, worry that she's lonely, worry that she's scared alone. Now that he has found Yao's mother, there will be another person to keep Yao company.
This can also be considered a good thing.
Zhi Yi: "...Okay, whatever."
She had succumbed. Her daughter was completely infatuated, no matter how she tried to persuade her, she wouldn't listen.
But Ling Jue completely flew into a rage, "No, I don't agree! This man, he has evil intentions, he must be deceiving Yao! I won't allow him to move in."
No one paid attention to Ling Jue.
Pei Chiyao had already gone out to make a phone call to start arranging this matter, seeing this, Zhi Yao was also very happy, she didn't expect her mother to agree.
She threw herself into her mother's arms, "Thank you, mother! You are the best to me!"
Zhi Yi cupped Zhi Yao's face, a little dazed.
This was the first time she had seen Yao transform into a human form, she was truly... so beautiful.
No wonder she was her daughter.
And all of this was thanks to Pei Chiyao.
She could see that Pei Chiyao had taken very good care of Zhi Yao, the little girl had just restored to her fox form, her fur was shiny and sleek, and she had even gained some weight. If she hadn't been carefully nurtured, there was no way she could have had these changes.
Now that she had just reunited with Zhi Yao, she couldn't bear to argue with her.
Especially when Pei Chiyao just said... Yao was almost bullied, she felt her heart ache with guilt.
