Ah! The Villains I Forced to Turn Evil Can Read My Mind

Xia Xuechun was left speechless by the rebuke.

Pei Che's expression was sinister, as if he had emerged from hell: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and apologize to my sister!"

Xia Xuechun trembled, her eyes gradually reddening.

Yet she still held her head high, stubbornly refusing to admit her mistake.

Xia Xuechun's good-natured father tugged at her sleeve and bowed in apology: "We're terribly sorry, everyone. My daughter has quite a sharp tongue. Please, please don't take her words to heart."

Pei Che persisted: "Is saying 'sorry' the proper way to apologize? Then if I throw your whole family out, can I just say 'sorry' too?"

The atmosphere grew tense.

Xia Xuechun looked at Pei Che with humiliation.

Pei Che tilted his head and looked at her contemptuously, as if she were trash, his gaze equivalent to giving her the middle finger.

Xia Xuechun's breathing quickened as she glared at Pei Che, tears welling up in her eyes.

Only when Xia Xuechun's father tugged at her sleeve did she come to her senses and reluctantly bow to apologize.

The family of three said in unison: "We're sorry, please forgive our rudeness."

Pei Che let out a cold snort and dragged Qiao Chuchu away, his face stern.

Qiao Chuchu followed behind him awkwardly, feeling uncomfortable.

[When did my second brother, who's as cold and unfeeling as a refrigerator, start being so protective of me?]

[The last time he protected me like this was several years ago, before he cut off my living expenses.]

Suddenly, Qiao Chuchu stumbled and bumped into Pei Che's back.

Pei Che looked down at her, his presence looming over her like Mount Tai.

Qiao Chuchu felt chills run down her spine and instinctively tried to pull her wrist away.

Pei Che gripped it even tighter.

His long fingers, like works of art, firmly gripped Qiao Chuchu's wrist, his gloomy eyes churning with unreadable emotions, almost pulling her in.

"Come home with me."

Qiao Chuchu: "But Grandpa Zhao—"

"I'll handle it," Pei Che said sternly. "I'm taking you home now."

The other brothers gradually caught up.

Lou Tingsi and Lou Yuejue frowned upon hearing this.

Lin Qing interjected: "Pei Che, Qiao Chuchu has lived alone for so many years, you should let her live by herself."

She playfully raised her eyebrows at Qiao Chuchu: "That way, I can live with you too, and we can strengthen our relationship, right?"

Just as Qiao Chuchu was about to nod, Pei Che tightened his grip on her hand: "She's my sister."

He looked at Qiao Chuchu, his eyes flashing coldly: "From now on, she'll live with us brothers. She's moving back in."

Qiao Chuchu: "????"

[What's wrong with him? I don't want to live with them at all, I'm used to living alone.]

Pei Che's eyes darkened as he pulled her along: "Let's go!"

Qiao Chuchu stumbled behind him, struggling several times, but Pei Che maintained his grip.

Although she had practiced self-defense for many years, her brothers also worked out daily, completely overwhelming her in terms of strength!

Qiao Chuchu wailed internally: [What sin did I commit to deserve this? I've already driven them crazy, and now I have to live with them? They're not going to abuse me, are they? They're not planning to dismember me, right?!]

Pei Che pulled her along with a dark expression, gripping her hand even tighter.

Pei Youchuan watched their retreating figures and smugly said to Lin Qing: "Sorry, Lin Qing, but she's our sister, and we have to take her home."

Lin Qing ground her teeth, hiding daggers behind her smile: "She seems quite unwilling. She might run away sometime, and then I can steal her away."

Pei Yuan chuckled, saying meaningfully: "We're seven people. Keeping an eye on one Qiao Chuchu is well within our capabilities. It might be a bit difficult for you to steal her."

Lin Qing's smile vanished: "Weren't we supposed to cooperate?"

Pei Yuan remained noncommittal: "Yes, but our sister still needs to stay with us brothers. If she says anything about you, we'll let you know."

Lin Qing was speechless and rolled her eyes dramatically: "You're all sister-complex freaks."

The Pei brothers responded in unison: "Say that again - we don't have a sister complex."

Lin Qing dismissed them contemptuously, brushing past them: "Just wait and see. With your fractured relationship, I can easily lure Qiao Chuchu away!"

Pei Youchuan smugly watched her retreating figure: "You'll need more practice then. My sister's bond with us is stronger than gold! She loves us to death! She'd even jump off a building for us!"

After Lin Qing disappeared from view, Pei Youchuan's smile vanished abruptly. "I think Qiao Chuchu doesn't love us anymore. She must be forced by the system. We're in a dangerous situation here."

Pei Yuan: "...So you were just showing off earlier."

Pei Youchuan's face turned slightly green: "Yeah, and I don't want to live with Qiao Chuchu. I'm traumatized by her. I'm afraid I'll open my closet and find her smiling at me in a dress!"

The other brothers nodded in agreement!

They were all somewhat afraid of Qiao Chuchu in their own way.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to," Pei Yuan said grimly. "If we don't take her, Lin Qing will snatch her away. Plus, Qiao Chuchu is being erased by this world - she could die in some accident at any time. What would we do then?"

Thinking about the father and son from the Lou family, Pei Yuan narrowed his eyes darkly: "Moreover, I suspect more people will be able to hear Qiao Chuchu's thoughts in the future. There will be more and more people trying to claim her. We must take the initiative and protect our sister by keeping her close. It's our only chance."

"First, to prevent the world from erasing her through accidents, and second, to prevent people like Lin Qing from taking advantage of the situation, understand?"

Pei Youchuan and the others' expressions changed slightly as they nodded comprehendingly: "Understood."

Lou Tingsi and Lou Yuejue, hidden in the emergency stairwell, watched them walk away.

Lou Tingsi bit down on a cigarette, his eyes narrowing like a fox's: "It seems we're not the only ones who can hear Qiao Chuchu's thoughts. In this plot, everyone who would have been killed by Xia Xuechun can hear her thoughts."

Thinking of Qiao Chuchu's innocent face, he smiled playfully: "With so many people and so many factions, it'll be quite challenging to claim her."

Lou Yuejue seemed lost: "What should we do?"

Lou Tingsi contemplated: "Since her relationship with her brothers isn't good, we'll be the better option."

Lou Yuejue didn't understand: "The better option?"

Lou Tingsi took out his phone and made a call: "It's me. Investigate the addresses of the seven Pei brothers. I only want to know about the house where all seven of them regularly stay together."

The sound of typing came from the other end of the line, and the person quickly replied: "The Pei brothers own many properties, but currently they all live together in the Lan City East Suburb Villa District. It's their father's old house, with neighbors on both sides."

Lou Tingsi: "Give me the neighbors' contact information. I'll speak with them personally."

"Yes, Mr. Lou."

Lou Tingsi received the phone number and casually searched his WeChat contacts, finding the person immediately.

Lou Tingsi let out a confident laugh, certain of his success.
