Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The tea in front of Pei Jingzhou was already cold.
Gu Lanshi was drinking by himself and had already drunk several cups of hot tea. Unknowingly, the two of them had been sitting here for nearly two hours. Gu Lanshi sipped his tea in satisfaction. He did not have anything urgent to do and did not waste much time.
He looked up at Pei Jingzhou and saw that he had no intention of leaving. He guessed that he had something to talk about.
Gu Lanshi reached out and poured the tea in front of Pei Jingzhou onto the tea plate. He poured him another cup of hot tea. ‘You don’t seem to like the cinnamon that Little You likes very much.”
Pei Jingzhou retracted his gaze and looked down at the steaming cinnamon tea in front of him. “She’s been sleeping lightly recently. This tea is refreshing. It’s not easy to fall asleep at night. It will wake her up.”
Gu Lanshi: ‘
Who drinks tea in the middle of the day and can’t sleep at night? That’s when one drinks tea at night, okay?
However, how could Gu Lanshi not tell that a certain someone had deliberately said that? Gu Lanshi clicked his tongue. “Don’t you still have a grudge against me for not being able to defeat me back then?”
Who doesn’t know how to provoke? Gu Lanshi specially picked on Pei
Jingzhou’s pain. After all, if two men lost a fight, they would grit their teeth at the thought of it for the rest of their lives. Although Pei Jingzhou had just been discharged from the hospital, since he had won, Gu Lanshi did not care if he had won unfairly.
However, it seemed that Pei Jingzhou’s reaction when he heard his words was not as Gu Lanshi had expected. He did not look angry and was even very calm. Gu Lanshi put down the white porcelain cup in his hand and made a clang.
“How boring.” With that, he was about to get up and leave.
Pei Jingzhou stopped him in a low voice. “Gu Lanshi.”
Gu Lanshi stopped in his tracks and said impatiently, “Pei Jingzhou, what else do you want to ask?”
Pei Jingzhou looked up. “Do you know that there was another boy in the incubator back then?”
Gu Lanshi was slightly stunned. “What do you mean?
Pei Jingzhou said calmly, “Literally.”
Gu Lanshi suddenly stood up, his eyes filled with disbelief. “Are you saying that Little You gave birth to twins back then?”
Pei Jingzhou leaned back. The smile on his lips showed that he was in a good mood. “It seems that you don’t know.”
“Hah!” Gu Lanshi chuckled and finally understood. “So you’re here to show off in front of me that you have a son and a daughter now, right?”
At this moment, not only was Pei Jingzhou smiling, but the smile in his eyes was also thick. “I never said these things.”
“You didn’t say! Gu Lanshi sneered. “But your reminder just now was so clear. I couldn’t pretend to be confused even if I wanted to. I was indeed very surprised. Although I had always been in Country T back then, Little You’s stomach was very big before I realized that she was already pregnant. At that time, she hid it from everyone around her and stayed in a quiet place with her mother. It had been a long time since you came to Country T. Every time I looked at Little You’s bulging stomach, I would think that since Little You deliberately hid it from you, if only she could keep it from you forever. Then, wouldn’t I be able to take advantage of the situation and become a father?” Pei Jingzhou’s eyes turned cold. ‘Good thinking.”
“Of course.” Gu Lanshi did not take Pei Jingzhou’s anger to heart. “In any case, I don’t mind being a stepfather at all. Love me, love my dog. Youyou is my biological daughter. Look at how beautiful I think.”
Pei Jingzhou nudged his cheek with the tip of his tongue. “Ha.”
On the other hand, Gu Lanshi laughed out loud. Pei Jingzhou had been calm and composed just now. Gu Lanshi could not tell what Pei Jingzhou was thinking at all. He could only guess that he had something else to ask.
At this moment, Pei Jingzhou’s emotions leaked out, and it was obvious at a glance that Gu Lanshi could not help but laugh. He sat down again and smiled smugly. “You can lose your cool sometimes.”
At this point, Gu Lanshi paused for a moment and added, “Little You is indeed your weakness. Pei Jingzhou, you have to be glad that I don’t have absolute bad intentions. If I’m completely bad, you’ll have a headache.”
Pei Jingzhou casually threw a sentence to Gu Lanshi. “Those who provoke me won’t have a good ending unless you think you have nine lives to play with.” These words were no longer a subtle threat. It was a blatant threat.
Gu Lanshi knew very well that if he forced Pei Jingzhou into a corner, this was indeed something Pei Jingzhou could do. After all, how could Pei Qingji’s son be so easily controlled?
“I was just joking.” Gu Lanshi’s calm words drowned out what he had just said.
Then, he asked, “Back then, after Little You’s accident, I went to the hospital to take Youyou away, but I didn’t hear about the existence of the other child. When Madam Di Xin came to me to ask for Youyou back, she didn’t mention the other child. Could it be that that child has been raised by Madam Di Xin?”
Pei Jingzhou said, “Mhm.”
Gu Lanshi asked, “Is the boy an older brother or younger brother?”
It was rare that the atmosphere was much more harmonious than before. Pei
Jingzhou was not stingy with Gu Lanshi’s small questions. “Eldest son.”
Gu Lanshi said angrily, “As expected, you have a son and a daughter.”
Pei Jingzhou smiled faintly. “Yes.”
Gu Lanshi gritted his teeth. “Congratulations.”
Pei Jingzhou’s smile deepened. “Thank you.” With that, Pei Jingzhou raised his hand and pulled open his sleeve to look at his watch. It was getting late. He still had to go to the Lu Residence. He picked up the white porcelain cup in front of him and drank the warm tea. He put it down and stood up. “Goodbye.” With that, Pei Jingzhou turned around and left.
Gu Lanshi quietly watched Pei Jingzhou leave and smiled silently. “A son and a daughter…”
He really had a son and a daughter. It would be a lie to say that he did not regret sending Youyou back. If he had known that he still had a son, he would have raised Youyou alone.
It was useless to regret it. Gu Lanshi could only curse Pei Jingzhou 10,000 times in his heart.
Han Qianye’s flight was at five this morning. She woke up early and did not sleep well on the plane. After landing in the capital, she was extremely sleepy and was brought back to the old residence by Pei Qingji.
She slept until the afternoon. After getting up, Han Qianye quickly dressed up. When she went out, she was in a hurry. She put on her earrings as she walked. When she passed by the front garden, Han Qianye stopped and turned to look at the rockery pool beside her.
The earrings were already on. Han Qianye turned around and walked towards the rockery pool.
Pei Jiao, who was sitting beside the rockery pond and fishing contentedly, saw that someone was coming over. It was her mother, and she had no intention of pulling back. She even smiled and greeted, “Mom, you’re awake.”
Han Qianye put on the dignity of a mother and said with a straight face, “Are you rebelling? How dare you fish under my nose?”
Pei Jiao straightened her back and smiled. “Mom, you just don’t allow Dad to fish because he often stays away for the entire day. You didn’t say that I’m not allowed to fish. Besides, my fishing is just a leisurely way for young people to entertain themselves.”
She was right.
At this moment, Han Qianye was in a hurry to go out and could not be bothered to argue with Pei Jiao. She turned around and prepared to leave.
Suddenly thinking of something, Han Qianye turned to ask Pei Jiao, “Are you in contact with that Qin kid?”
