章 421: Chapter 421: Completely Breaking Away from Old Pei's House (8)_1

Pei Zongli scrambled to his feet and, bracing against the pain, quickly climbed into the carriage, but didn't forget to ask Pei Qin, "Qinqin! The consent paper..."

Pei Qin's gaze turned frosty as she shot back, "What did you just say?"

Feeling a chill in his heart from her stare, Pei Zongli no longer dared ask for the consent paper and hurriedly drove the carriage away.

He knew he was heading for a beating, but he had to go anyway; otherwise, the consent paper would be even less attainable.

Now, Pei Qin was using the consent paper to make things difficult for them.

Seeing that Pei Zongli indeed got beaten when he went there, Old Pei suggested going directly to the Fang family to find Old Scholar Fang. He wasn't Pei Qin; as a scholar, he surely cared about face and wouldn't beat anyone. He hoped to negotiate with him and see what conditions they might have.
