Quick Transmigration: Don't Let That Cannon Fodder Go

Chapter 106 That Paparazzo Who Always Scolds Me 17

Pei Laodeng was anxiously pacing around as Bai Siluo cried uncontrollably. His eyes were red as he kept wiping away her tears with tissues: "Baby, what's wrong? Daddy was wrong, okay?"

Bai Siluo was crying so hard she couldn't speak. The moment she saw Ye Jun standing next to her father, she felt betrayed.

One was someone who had been harassing her, and the other was her father, whom she respected so much. How could the two of them possibly appear in the same frame?

Bai Siluo cried for a long time before her emotions gradually calmed down. She choked out, "Dad, he's my senior from school, the one who's been harassing me!"

"How could you be with someone like that..."

Pei Laodeng looked at her in shock: "Sisi, are you saying that Xiao Ye is the one who harassed you?"

His lips trembled slightly as he apologized to Bai Siluo: "Sisi, Dad was wrong. Dad really didn't know. I only knew that he went to the same school as you."

Upon hearing this, Bai Siluo burst into tears again: "Dad, do you really like this? Why would you hang out with someone like this?"

Pei Laodeng looked troubled and glanced at his secretary beside him.

The secretary quickly lowered his head. He hadn't hired Ye Jun; the boss had said that Ye Jun looked pleasing to the eye and that what Ye Jun said was also agreeable.

Old Master Pei slammed his fist on the table in anger: "This Ye Jun, it seems he came to Pei's with a purpose. I knew he knew me so well."

It turns out they came prepared.

He assured Bai Siluo, "Sisi, don't be sad, Dad will handle this."

"Dad will definitely not let Ye Jun off the hook. It's a good opportunity to settle both old and new scores at once."

He couldn't swallow his anger at being fooled by a greenhorn who hadn't even graduated yet.

Bai Siluo's mood finally calmed down, and Pei Laodeng felt extremely distressed when he saw her red and swollen eyes.

"Sisi, if you have any problems in the future, just tell Dad. Don't cry all the time. Dad will support whatever you want to do."

Having resolved this matter, there was another one to worry about, and Bai Siluo felt a tightness in her chest.

"Dad, is what they say online true?" Bai Siluo asked Pei Laodeng.

Pei Laodeng's expression immediately turned guilty. He gave a dry laugh and said, "What? It's just a rumor. Sisi, don't worry about these things online."

"Truth and falsehood are intertwined; who knows?"

He sipped his tea, avoiding Bai Silu's gaze.

Bai Siluo frowned and stood in front of him: "Dad, is it true or not? If it's false, then go sue them. You'll win every time."

Pei Laodeng chuckled and said, "It's nothing, just a bunch of little girls. I can't be bothered to argue with them."

Bai Siluo silently watched her father's expression. Her heart was filled with complicated emotions. How could her father be this kind of person?

Looking at Bai Siluo's eyes, Pei Laodeng sighed: "Sisi, you don't understand the adult world. In those situations, everyone always has to make a few jokes to ease the atmosphere."

Bai Silu felt her heart suddenly stop, and her eyes filled with tears, all of which were just excuses.

"Then why didn't you make fun of those male reporters?"

Pei Laodeng said in a low voice, "What's so interesting about men's jokes?"

Bai Silu completely broke down: "What's so funny about that woman's joke? What if my mother and I were ever made that kind of joke one day?"

"Who dares!" Old Pei raised his eyebrows in anger. Who would dare to joke about his daughter and wife?

Seeing Bai Siluo start crying again, Pei Laodeng didn't know what to do.

He paced back and forth in the office. Bai Silu didn't want to talk to him and kept crying.

The secretary, having received a hint from Pei Laodeng, went to Bai Siluo to comfort her.

"roll!"

The secretary quickly scurried to a corner; if she couldn't afford to offend him, she could at least avoid him.

The time on the wall ticked away, and the sky outside grew dark.

Old Pei leaned back in his chair, looking more than ten years older. He sighed and said, "Alright, alright, I'll apologize to those two ladies, okay?"

How did things get to this point? It's never been like this before.

Ye Jun, who had been fired by the Pei family, suddenly lost all motivation for life.

When Ye Jun joined Pei's Group, none of his classmates failed to envy him. Pei's Group was a long-established company, something that was truly unattainable for ordinary students like them.

Looking out the closed curtains, the other boys in the dorm curled their lips in disapproval.

Ye Jun hasn't gone to his internship for several days; he must not have finished his internship.

He gets up so early every morning to wash up, making a lot of noise, it's so loud!

"Holy crap! You're such a loser!"

"Bullshit, my internet connection just crashed."

“Every time you die, you say it’s because of network problems. It’s the campus network, how come we don’t have problems?”

Ye Jun tossed and turned in bed, sighing repeatedly, but no one paid any attention.

The bed creaked as he shook it, but no one paid any attention.

He covered his ears and then put a pillow over them, but the sound was still completely blocked.

He took a deep breath and pulled back the bed curtains: "Could you please keep your voices down? It's already midnight."

The men exchanged glances, chuckled, and went back to playing their games.

Ye Jun didn't dare to confront them directly. They had teamed up to isolate him, and if a fight broke out, he would definitely get hurt.

He sighed as he looked at the balance on his phone. He had been using secondhand phones before, but as soon as he got his salary, he bought the latest iPhone. As a result, he didn't have much money left after buying it.

He hesitated for a moment, but still sent a message to his sister. However, the message showed that she had been blocked.

Ye Jun felt even worse. The ridicule from his classmates, his dysfunctional family, and being taken advantage of by women—he couldn't understand how his life had become so miserable.

Ye Jun spent each day in a daze, and he had thought about going to Song Xianyin to get the money back.

But that crazy woman, she's a reporter, what if she spreads rumors about him online?

Just when he was in despair, a beam of light suddenly shone on him.

Wow, you're from University A? You have the highest academic background of anyone I know.

I have a friend who went to a top-tier high school and then went on to university.

Looking at the message on his phone, Ye Jun suddenly felt that the person on the other end was both pathetic and adorable.

This girl is three years younger than him. She only has a junior high school education and started working at a very young age. Now she works hard in a factory. She is so innocent and adorable.

Ye Jun hesitated before replying: "It's alright. There are a lot of college students now. I was just laid off from Pei's company too."

[What is Pei's? Is it a very powerful company? You must earn about 8,000 yuan a month then.]

Ye Jun smiled when he saw the message. How could Pei's salary only be eight thousand? This girl is really something.
