Rebirth of the Useless Bastard Son

Seeing Madam Zhao, Pei Yu felt a little frightened, but she also felt relieved. It turned out that it was Madam Zhao who had ordered the servants to stop her. The guards who had come in just now to pass the news probably had also told Madam Zhao.

It wasn’t that Zhao Shubao didn’t want to see her, but he had been kept in the dark and didn’t even know she was coming.

After thinking about it, Pei Yu felt much calmer. She immediately restrained her arrogance and begged Madam Zhao, “Aunt Zhao, I have something important to tell Brother Shubao. Please let me see him. I just want to talk with him for a bit, and then I’ll leave.”

Pei Yu had just been punished not long ago and had been imprisoned for nearly half a month. Her delicate face was a bit haggard and pale, and now her soft words seemed a bit pitiful.

Madam Zhao frowned, “Shubao won’t see you. Young Lady Pei, please go back. Don’t come to our Zhao family again in the future.”

“Aunt Zhao, if you prevent me from meeting Brother Shubao like this, I’m afraid that Brother Shubao will be unhappy if he finds out,” Pei Yu said anxiously.

In the past, Zhao Shubao had pestered her every day, which only made her feel extremely bored, but she never thought that one day it would be so difficult to even meet him. Until this moment, Pei Yu actually had some desire to see him.

“What a shameless girl, who do you think my Shubao is?” Madam Zhao was so angry at her words that she couldn’t help but take a few deep breaths.

“It’s just that Shubao likes you, but you’re just making fun of him. Yes, if my son likes you, I can praise you to the sky, but don’t forget, if Shubao doesn’t like you, you are nothing.”

“In that case, why is Aunt Zhao so nervous and afraid to let me meet Brother Shubao?” Pei Yu felt more confident after seeing Madam Zhao’s reaction.

“You…” Madam Zhao was speechless for a moment. She was really afraid of letting her son see this woman again.

However, Zhao Shubao’s voice came at that moment, “Mom, let her come in.”

“Brother Shubao.” Pei Yu saw Zhao Shubao’s figure and called him with a bright smile.

Madam Zhao knew something was wrong as soon as she saw her son and reminded him, “Shubao, she doesn’t have any feeling for you. She is worried that her family would abandon her and try to deceive you.”

“Mom, don’t worry. I’ll have someone send her back after she finishes speaking,” Zhao Shubao reluctantly said with a smile.

Seeing Pei Yu being led into the front yard like this, Madam Zhao’s face was full of worry.

“Brother Shubao, fortunately, you are here. I thought I would never see you again,” Pei Yu chased after Zhao Shubao and said coquettishly.

“Just tell me if you have anything to say,” Zhao Shubao sat down in the pavilion in the front yard and asked expressionlessly.

Pei Yu suddenly discovered that Zhao Shubao had lost a lot of weight after not seeing him for a while, but he looked much more pleasing to the eye like this.

Seeing this, Pei Yu regretted not holding on to Zhao Shubao before, but it seemed too late now.

Pei Yu followed Mrs. Zhen’s instructions and said softly, “Brother Shubao, do you still remember when we were young, and we went out to play together and you accidentally fell into the well?”

Hearing Pei Yu mention this, Zhao Shubao’s body stiffened for a moment.

“I was the one who rescued you that time. Since then, Brother Shubao has liked to chase me and said that he would marry me as your wife in the future. Brother Shubao, do you still remember?” Pei Yu said to Zhao Shubao with a mischievous smile.

“So?” Zhao Shubao looked away and asked in a deep voice.

“So, Brother Shubao, does this still count now?” Pei Yu walked to the other side and looked directly at Zhao Shubao as he asked.

“You came here today just to tell me this?” Zhao Shubao frowned, the disappointment in his eyes growing stronger.

He thought that Pei Yu was here to apologize, explain, or repent. No matter what, it would have been fine. Even if she made up a ridiculous excuse, saying that she had her own reasons, it would have been better than what she was doing now.

“Yeah, hasn’t Brother Shubao always said he likes me?” Pei Yu didn’t seem happy to see him like this and appeared a little confused.

“Pei Yu, if I hadn’t thought about this little bit of love, I wouldn’t have met you today. But, are you really going to be satisfied with this last bit of love being completely tarnished?” Zhao Shubao said with an angry look.

Pei Yu couldn’t understand what he meant, “Brother Shubao, have you misunderstood something? Mu Jing and I really have nothing to do. I have always regarded him as my older brother.”

“Are you done?” Zhao Shubao realized for the first time that he had nothing to say to Pei Yu.

“Brother Shubao?” Pei Yu saw that he looked upset but didn’t understand what she had said wrong. She felt a little anxious.

“Ah Hui, send the young lady back.” Zhao Shubao didn’t want to hear any more and issued an expulsion order in a cold voice.

“I won’t go back.” Pei Yu looked at Zhao Shubao full of grievance.

“Young lady, please don’t be difficult,” Zhao Hui said, releasing the pressure on her and raising his hand to signal her to leave.

Pei Yu was almost forced to leave the Zhao family by Zhao Hui. Zhao Hui received Zhao Shubao’s order and personally sent her back to the Pei house.

Not long after Zhao Hui and Pei Yu had left, Zhao Yu’s figure appeared. When Zhao Shubao saw him coming back, he asked, “How is it? Have you heard anything?”

Zhao Yu replied, “Sir, we have found it. They opened an alchemy shop on Dongling Street. I heard that both of them are alchemists, and the quality of the pills they refine is good. Now the shop is quite famous in the Dongling area.”

Because they only sold Huang-level and Xuan-level medicinal pills, they weren’t too eye-catching in Alliance City. However, these two people had just arrived in Alliance City, and the medicinal pill shop had gained such a reputation, which was already pretty impressive.
