âLetâs wait and see,â Pei Ze said.
Regardless of whether Lin Yan was a demoness or had ulterior motives, he had to investigate thoroughly.
Actually, Pei Ze didnât care about what would happen to the Holy Land or the world. However, he had to protect Pei Yucheng. If Lin Yan was really the demoness, he couldnât let anything happen to him.
Of course, this was provided that he didnât offend the demonessâ faction. Otherwise, he would be condemned to eternal damnation.
âSecond Master, do you want to talk to Pei Yucheng? If Miss Lin is a demoness and he doesnât know about it, there might be trouble,â the young man said with a frown.
Pei Ze shook his head. âThereâs no need to make this public. Iâll just wait and then approach him.â
Pei Ze could tell that Pei Yucheng had feelings for Lin Yan. If he told Pei Yucheng the truth, it would backfire. Pei Yucheng wouldnât believe him and would even think that he was helping Tang Rong.
âCousin, you must take care of yourself,â he murmured. âIn the end, the only person who can compete with me for the Pei Familyâs inheritance⦠is you.â

Cloud Manorâ¦
The cat could be heard snoring in the room, and Lin Yanâs pajamas were drenched.
Lin Yan furrowed her eyebrows in her sleep as though she was in great pain.
The scene in her dream had terrified her.
She seemed to be flying in the sky, yet she seemed to be trapped in the deep sea at the same time. She seemed to have seen numerous smiling faces that had completely transformed into terrified, desperate shoutsâ¦

A faint glow appeared and enveloped Lin Yan. In an instant, all the painful scenes shattered like a mirror, leaving behind only beauty.
Lin Yan opened her eyes.
She checked the time, and it was just after midnight.
âEhâ¦â
Lin Yan sat up and took a sip of water, looking puzzled.
She seemed to have just had an incredible dream, but she could not remember it.
For some reason, the first person she wanted to see when she woke up was Pei Yucheng.
She wondered if Pei Yucheng was asleep.
Lin Yan changed clothes and headed to the bedroom.
She then noticed Pei Nanxu and Pei Yutang in the study.
âDidnât you go to sleep?â
Pei Yucheng spoke softly when he saw Lin Yan.
âI woke up.â Lin Yan grinned.
âYou woke up?â Pei Yutang glanced at Lin Yan in surprise. âSister Yan, what are you doing? Are you a night owl?â
âWhy arenât the two of you resting?â Lin Yan was puzzled. âWhy are you disturbing your brother so late at night?â
Pei Nanxu and Pei Yutang were forced to suffer a public display of affection when they saw how protective Lin Yan was.
Pei Yucheng stroked the girlâs hair. âItâs fine. I couldnât sleep either.â
Lin Yan blinked, looking worried. âYou couldnât sleep? Whatâs wrong? Is it insomnia? Should I call the doctor?â
Pei Yucheng chuckled quietly as he watched her.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lin Yan finally realized that he hadnât been able to sleep because she had admitted that she liked himâ¦
Pei Yutang, who didnât know what was going on, exclaimed excitedly, âSister Yan, how could you fall asleep?â
After learning that the Pei Family had evolved beings and that Pei Yucheng was an evolved being himself, Pei Nanxu and Pei Yutang naturally wanted to know more about them. Although they werenât evolved beings and had been âexiledâ to Cloud Manor since a young age, they were still part of the Pei Family. This couldnât change.
âBig Brother, tell Second Brother and me about your evolved ability. Can you fly? Can you burrow underground?â Pei Yutang stared at Pei Yucheng excitedly.
Pei Yucheng was speechlessâ¦
Lin Yan glanced at Pei Yutang. Indeed, there was no escape from this husky attributeâit was silly.
âNo,â replied Pei Yucheng.
âHuh? You canât even do that? I wanted Big Brother to take me to the sky.â Pei Yutang sighed in disappointment.
Pei Nanxu pondered it for a moment before his eyes landed on Pei Yucheng. He then asked solemnly, âDoes Big Brother know how to become invisible?â
âNo,â replied Pei Yucheng.
Pei Nanxu was speechlessâ¦
