Chapter 185 Pei Yuanjun is really gone this time.
Qi Yunran was stunned for a moment, and Xiao Jingxuan was also somewhat excited and astonished.

He appeared pale and thinner than before, his handsome features even more pronounced. He wore a light blue brocade robe with a jade belt, which accentuated his tall, dashing, and undeniably noble bearing. His imposing aura sent chills down one's spine.

He wore a blue hair crown that matched his clothes perfectly. He looked aloof, wise, and polite, reverting to the restrained and distant demeanor she had felt when she first met him.

He gives off an unapproachable aura, as if he wasn't the one who used to act spoiled and refuse to leave her, or who used to steal snacks from Xiao Jingxuan.

Qi Yunran put down the branch from her shoulder, but Pei Yuanjun did not take the heavy load off her shoulder as usual.

Xiao Jingxuan was initially delighted to see her godfather, but when she saw his aloof and indifferent handsome face, her smile vanished.

"Godfather?" he called out softly.

Pei Yuanjun pursed her lips and did not agree, handing the things in her hand to Qi Yunran.

Qi Yunran took it, but it was a household registration certificate for a woman, and the head of household was none other than her! Following that was Xiao Jingxuan's name, only Pei Jingxuan had been changed to Qi Jingxuan. She flipped through a couple of pages and then lost interest in reading further.

A sudden wave of disappointment washed over me, and I felt uneasy and uncomfortable.

Qi Yunran looked up at him, slightly taken aback, and saw him take out a silver note from his sleeve and place it in her hand.

Qi Yunran immediately felt like she was throwing a hot potato back to Pei Yuanjun.

"Since we have no relationship anymore, I can't accept these!"

Pei Yuanjun's cold lips twitched slightly: "It should be yours. The ancient formula for making blue bricks that you presented was a reward from the Emperor!"

Without waiting for Qi Yunran's reaction, he strode down the mountain.

Qi Yunran stared blankly at his departing figure.

As if sensing something, Pei Yuanjun suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Looking back at Qi Yunran, Qi Yunran hurriedly withdrew her gaze, which had been following Pei Yuanjun.

His cool voice said, "Ranran, I'm going back to the capital. Take care!"

After saying that, he turned and walked away, his back to the world with a desolate air. Suddenly, Xiao Jingxuan shouted, "Godfather, don't you want Godmother and Jingxuan anymore?"

Upon hearing this, Pei Yuanjun paused, then strode forward without turning back.

Qi Yunran stared absently at the gate; Pei Yuanjun had been gone for a day.

This time he really left, taking Pei's parents to the capital.

At this moment, Aunt Liu and Huang Caicai suddenly arrived at the door.

Seeing Qi Yunran exchange a glance, he immediately comforted her, "Yunran, please don't do anything rash. It's his loss that Dalang didn't take you with him. You're so capable, Aunt Liu will introduce you to someone even better."

Huang Caicai immediately comforted her, "Yes, Ranran, you are so kind and beautiful. It would be a loss for Brother Pei if he didn't take you back to the capital."

"But Brother Pei is really something. He always seems to dote on Sister Ranran. I never expected him to take our parents with him when he went to the capital. That's really unfair of him. Luckily, I don't like him anymore, or I would be heartbroken."

"Caicai, stop talking!"

"Oh. I'm sorry, Sister Ranran, I just think Brother Pei is a terrible person. My mother said Pei... um..."

Aunt Liu covered Huang Caicai's mouth with one hand. Why is this girl so blunt? Why does she always bring up Dalang in front of Yunran? Isn't she just rubbing salt in her wounds?

If she hadn't sensed her malice, she would have thought she was there to make a fool of herself.

At this moment, Pei Wenwen and Pei Xiaoya also arrived at the back mountain, looking at Qi Yunran with mockery: "Isn't this the wife of an official from the capital? Why didn't you go to the capital with Brother Pei?"

"Hehe... Wenwen, look at your memory. Brother Pei was just playing with her. Did you really think he liked her?"

"Haha...it's true, Qi Yunran is just a discarded woman abandoned by Brother Pei. Who would want a used woman like her, haha..."

"Ah...smack...bang..."
