Meanwhile, in the living room…
Pei Nanxu turned to Cheng Mo. “How is my brother doing?”
Cheng Mo clicked on a photo in his phone and reeled off, “Ever since that incident, President Pei’s condition has been extremely unstable. The chairman has arranged for the medical experts from America to come over here. They are all ready for an emergency.
Earlier, the doctor came and brought a report with President Pei’s data. His body exceeded the normal pressure today a total of six times. However, there was a period when he was calm and stable. Hence, the doctor asked me what President Pei was doing at the time.
I checked, and the period when President Pei was stable was between the time of Miss Lin’s competition and now.”
Pei Yutang clicked his tongue. “She is indeed my daddy! Amazing! If Big Sister-In-Law were to stay with Big Brother 24 hours a day, wouldn’t he recover without any medical treatment?”
Pei Nanxu furrowed his eyebrows. “But Lin Yan is a person too. How can we restrict her freedom? Have you forgotten what happened previously?”
Pei Yutang nodded in response. “Yeah, that’s true. Although Big Sister-In-Law is super effective as a stabilizer, she is also a ticking time-bomb! It was really frightening when she blew up!”
Cheng Mo agreed and added, “If President Pei and Miss Lin’s relationship can be stabilized, it would be best. We can’t rush things.”
Pei Yutang replied, “As long as Big Sister-In-Law doesn’t initiate a breakup, everything will be fine! I will just beg her if the need arises!”
…
Lin Yan stayed for dinner and then discussed her contract with Pei Nanxu and Pei Yucheng.
Pei Yucheng’s condition had been unstable recently, and he didn’t like anyone near him. Pei Nanxu had moved back to the mansion to take care of him.
As for Pei Yutang, he had left home and couldn’t come over so often. Therefore, he seized this chance to enjoy some homely comfort while Lin Yan was there.
Soon, the clock struck 11 p.m.
Pei Yucheng reminded her gently, “It’s getting late. Go home and rest while it’s early.”
Lin Yan hadn’t noticed the time until Pei Yucheng reminded her.
“Oh, okay! Then I shall head back home! Do rest early, Mr. Pei.” Lin Yan stood up.
Pei Yutang immediately sprang to his feet amid his game. “I’m going back too!”
Without Big Sister-In-Law around, he wouldn’t dare linger here.
Pei Nanxu and Pei Yutang led Lin Yan to the door and instructed Pei Yutang to take Lin Yan back.
Pei Yutang blinked in puzzlement. Why didn’t Big Brother take her back personally?
However, he didn’t dare disobey his Big Brother, so he decided to clam up.
He really felt that Big Brother and Big Sister-In-Law didn’t act like a couple…
Weren’t they progressing too slowly?
“Alright! I will take Big Sister-In-Law safely back home!”
Pei Yutang muttered softly under his breath. “Even if Big Sister-In-Law were to loiter outside, the one who would be in danger wouldn’t be her…”
Lin Yan bade Pei Yucheng and Pei Nanxu farewell before getting into Pei Yutang’s car.
Pei Yucheng didn’t return to the house. Instead, he bent his head and lit a cigarette. He stood there and watched the car disappear slowly into the darkness.
‘Beep…’
‘Beep…’
‘Beep…’
The silver watch on his wrist began to ring and the alarm gradually got faster and shriller.
