Throughout the conversation between the two, Pei Zhiyao always felt a layer of awkwardness hanging in the air between them.
He couldn't put his finger on this emotion, but he just felt very uncomfortable inside.
He was never really a member of the Pei Family.
This fact, Pei Zhiyao had always kept to himself.
Whether it was Pei Qingqing or Wen Mian, Pei Zhiyao never dared to tell the truth.
If it weren't for Pei Father's preemptive approach, Pei Zhiyao might have continued concealing it until his own plans started to unfold.
Now, facing Pei Qingqing's inquiries, Pei Zhiyao unusually hesitated for a long while.
After a long moment, he lifted his gaze towards Pei Qingqing.
"This… Is it a bit sudden that I came home today?"
"Sudden? You're coming back to your own house, why would it be sudden?"
In Pei Zhiyao's view, he hadn't even greeted Pei Father yet.
If he disturbed the other party, it probably wouldn't be good.
