Cheng Yajing felt that Pei’s father was very depressed. She smiled, "Dad, just do as I say.
With Cheng Yajing's help, perhaps it really would have some effect? The Old Master Pei opened his mouth, "Just do as Ya Jing says. I think Ya Jing definitely won't hope for our family to be at odds.
Thus, the Pei’s father did as Cheng Yajing instructed. He started to cook soup for Pei Chenjun every day and even cooked for him.
Actually, Pei Chenjun had already noticed it a long time ago. On this day, Cheng Yajing walked in with another bowl of chicken soup, and she placed her on the side like before.
This time, Pei Chenjun looked at the chicken soup and asked, "Who made this soup?"
In his heart, he understood that it was done by the Pei’s father, but he did not believe it. Because every day, there would be a different soup.
It had already been like this for a week, and Cheng Yajing also felt that it was about time. She smiled and asked him, "Do you think that this chicken soup is very delicious?"
Pei Chenjun didn't understand why Cheng Yajing's answer was irrelevant, but he still nodded with certainty, "This chicken soup is indeed not bad."
"If you want to know who did this, come with me." Cheng Yajing pulled Pei Chenjun up with a smile.
Bringing him to the kitchen, he saw Pei’s father busily working in the kitchen with an apron around his neck, and subconsciously wanted to leave.
Unexpectedly, Pei’s father quickly took off his apron and walked in front of Pei Chenjun, "Chen Jun, can you forgive father? There was a reason I didn't go to your mother that year. "
Originally, Pei Chenjun didn't want to mention his mother, but after hearing Pei’s father say so, he wanted to hear more about the reason why they were both dying of hunger back then.
It turned out that Pei Chenjun's mother was originally an orphan, and then accidentally met the Pei’s father and gave birth to him.
Pei’s father did not avoid speaking in front of the servant. He slowly spoke out, "Back then, I wanted to go find you and your mother, but your mother said that she did not want to be together with me. Furthermore, she did not mention your existence, so I did not go look for you.
Without waiting for Pei’s father to finish speaking, Pei Chenjun had already understood, but he would not believe what he had heard.
"I won't believe you. Are you trying to push all the responsibility onto Hu Lihua? I'm not a fool. " Pei Chenjun angrily left, and no matter how Cheng Yajing tried to pull him back, it was to no avail.
Pei’s father could only silently watch Pei Chenjun and Cheng Yajing's departing figures. He knew that his son would not forgive him that easily, and he actually did not understand why Pei Chenjun's mother did not allow him to look for them back then.
Cheng Yajing followed Pei Chenjun outside the villa, and in the end, Pei Chenjun did not go far, but stayed inside the park outside of the villa. His expression was sad, and the worry between his brows that could not be dispelled made Cheng Yajing's heart ache slightly.
"Chen Jun, are you really not going to forgive me?" Cheng Yajing held his hand, attempting to transmit the warmth of his own palm to his heart.
After a long while, he finally spoke up, "Yating, you don't know how my mother and I came here. I've fought my way up to this day by myself and have nothing to do with the Pei family. My father did not take care of me and my mother in the past, so I will not forgive him."
Cheng Yajing leaned on his shoulder, and said hesitantly, "But that was all in the past, now that Father knows his wrongs, why can't you forgive him? And he also said that there was a reason why he didn't go look for you and Mother back then."
"What other reason could it be? He was merely bewitched by Hu Lihua. " Pei Chenjun immediately rejected Pei’s father.
"Maybe your mother didn't want your father to go to them?" Cheng Yajing thought that there would be no one who would let their blood and flesh flow outside, unless there was really a misunderstanding.
She had to find the existence of this misunderstanding. In that case, Chen Jun would not regret it in the future.
Only, he didn't even give the chance for Pei Chenjun to speak to Pei’s father right now.
After resting in the park for a while, Cheng Yajing returned empty-handed.
As soon as she returned to the Pei household, she went to find Pei’s father. "Dad, you said that you didn't go to find Chen Jun and his mother on purpose. Who told you that?"
"Back then, although Hu Lihua and I had gotten married, I had also contacted Chen Jun's mother. At that time, Chen Jun's mother firmly refused to let me go find them, and said that she wanted to cut off all ties with me. I was so angry that I didn't go look for them."
So there was actually such a situation back then. Cheng Yajing finally knew where the crux of the problem lay.
She asked again, "Is there anything to prove?"
Pei’s father just took out a box from a drawer. Inside the box were letters between him and Chen Jun's mother, and he could tell from the letters that Pei Chenjun's mother was a very gentle woman.
"This is the last letter Chen Jun's mother and I wrote. Since then, no matter how many letters I send over, they have all been returned." Pei’s father picked up a letter.
Cheng Yajing's hands trembled as she opened the letter. There were indeed some heartless words written on there, she knew that this was proof that the Pei’s father and Pei Chenjun were at peace.
The question was, why had Chen Jun's mother said something so decisive in the past?
Cheng Yajing thought of another question. "Dad, when did you know of Chen Jun's existence?"
"That was a long time ago. By that time, Chen Jun's mother would already be dead." After he finished speaking, a trace of tears actually appeared in Pei’s father's eyes. He had truly let Pei Chenjun down, "Later on, because of Li Hua's relationship with me, she instigated me again. I did not care about Chen Jun anymore. I truly regret it."
When Cheng Yajing saw Pei’s father like this, she immediately understood. She didn't even wait for Pei’s father to raise her head before she took the letter and left.
By the time Pei’s father realized this, Cheng Yajing had already left.
Cheng Yajing arrived at the study room just in time to see Pei Chenjun there. She placed the letter she got from Pei’s father on his table.
"Chen Jun, take a look at this letter." There was a trace of anticipation on Cheng Yajing's face. If Chen Jun saw the contents of the letter, he would definitely forgive Pei’s father.
Unfortunately, Pei Chenjun only glanced indifferently at the cover of that letter, and then stopped looking at it. He basically did not want to open it.
