Besides Gu Chengxuan, who else could send Cheng Bai to say such things to her family...
In other words, the words Gu Chengxuan said to her at home not long ago were not true, they were just said deliberately to annoy her...
Thinking of this, Pei Yu felt that her face turned red and white. She didn't quite understand... Gu Chengxuan clearly didn't say anything to her parents that would humiliate her and not treat her as a human being. Not only did she not, but she had already let Cheng Bai sent someone over to reassure her parents, but he didn't tell her and even humiliated her with his words...
Is there something... wrong with him
Pei Yu felt a little unexplainably awkward. She felt that Gu Chengxuan's behavior was a bit too much.
No, it's too much.
In short, she will never go to him again for the time being.
No matter what he thinks of her, she... will never see him again for the time being!
No matter how much she loves him in her heart, no matter how much she wants to be with him, she still needs dignity after all!
How could she still come to him eagerly without him bullying her and humiliating her like that... Absolutely... Absolutely impossible!

Dali Temple.
In the main cabinet, Cheng Bai processed all the urgent documents that should be reviewed in the past few days, and then asked Zhao Yi to read to him the cases from various places.
Cheng Bai tilted his head slightly and leaned on the back of the seat. He listened casually for a while with half-closed eyes. Suddenly he heard something and asked Zhao Yi to stop and say it again.
Zhao Yi was stunned for a moment and repeated what he said just now: "Reporting to your lord, regarding the corruption case of the Seoul prefect, the chief envoy has sent people to collect evidence, and will send people there when the time comes..."
Before Zhao Yi finished speaking, Cheng Bai finally put down the pen he was playing with, stood up and said, "No, put the case files in order. I will go to Seoul to investigate the matter myself."
Zhao Yiwen said: "..."
He didn't see anything about a small corruption case in Seoul that would warrant the dignified Dali Temple minister to personally investigate...
But he quickly thought of Mr. Pei who was currently in Seoul, and he suddenly understood something...
Well, the most important thing about Mr. Cheng's trip is probably not to investigate the case, but to meet people.
Although he didn't understand from the beginning to the end how Mr. Pei endeared himself to his family. It was clear that Mr. Cheng was extremely vicious when it came to other things, but...he was blind when it came to feelings.
But Zhao Yi would never say this in front of Cheng Bai.
He had no choice but to have his luggage prepared, and set off for Seoul with Mr. Cheng early the next morning...
When we arrived in Seoul, it was already three days later.
Seoul is incomparable to Beicheng. Most of the people in the city are doing hard labor, and the buildings are quite simple, but a few government buildings are quite luxurious.
At that time, the prefect of Seoul didn't know that he was in danger. He just heard that someone was coming from above, but he didn't expect that the person who came was the minister of Dali Temple. The prefect of Seoul was extremely flattered after seeing Cheng Bai and wanted to hold a grand banquet. Cheng Bai's arrival was welcomed, but Cheng Bai did not agree. The first thing he did when entering the city was to ask the prefect of Seoul to take him to meet people.
The prefect of Seoul was confused. For a moment he couldn't remember who Cheng Bai wanted to see. Zhao Yi reminded him, and then the prefect remembered that a criminal was sent from Beicheng a few days ago. Originally, the criminal was sent to prison. Everyone who comes to Seoul is directly dragged into hard labor.
