It was so quiet in the room that everyone could hear the voice on the phone even though Zhang Guihua did not put it on speaker.
“Old Madam!” Fortunately, her maid helped Zhang Guihua in time, or she would have fallen down.
Zhang Guihua tried to calm herself down, “it’s the Pei family again. Lihua, have you ever offended the Pei family?”
Ning Lihua shook her head, “I can’t wait to curry favor with them. How could I possibly offend them??”
Zhang Guihua believed her, “but that’s strange. Why would the Pei family target us for no reason?”
Ning Lihua suddenly thought of something, “Su Ji has connections with the Pei family. I’ve seen her with CEO Pei several times!”
As soon as she said this, they fell silent at the same time.
However, the two of them could not figure out what this had to do with the Pei family targeting the Su family.
The police officer reminded him that visiting hours were up.
Zhang Guihua waved her hand, “fine, you stay here for a few more days. I’ll go to the hospital to see Junye first.”
“Mom, you have to find a way to cure them!” Ning Lihua said.
“Don’t worry!” Zhang Guihua took a deep breath.

In the hospital, Zhang Guihua walked around the glass window outside the VIP ward with the help of her maid, but she could not find her extremely handsome eldest grandson!
She stopped in her tracks and was puzzled. A big face wrapped in bandages, like a fried pancake, was pressed against the glass window. The boy patted the glass window excitedly, “grandma! I’m Junye!”
The glass windows of the VIP ward were soundproof, so Zhang Guihua could not hear anything. She waved her hand in disgust, “where did this ugly monster come from?”
Her maid reminded her in a low voice, “that seems to be young master!”
“What?” Zhang Guihua turned her head with her eyes wide open. She looked at Su Junye’s swollen face. His one eye was bigger than the other. She wanted to kill Su Ji right away!
There were two beds in the ward. Besides Su Junye, the other bed belonged to Su Qianrou.
She and Su Junye looked even more like twins now!
They seemed to be resurrected when they saw Zhang Guihua. Aggrieved tears instantly gushed out, but when the tears fell on their faces, it stung.
Song Heng was also there today. He had specially taken a day off to visit Su Qianrou. He was on his own now and needed to find someone to back him up. Su Ji was out of the picture, so he had to rely on Su Qianrou for the time being.
Even though he had already seen the picture on the internet and mentally prepared himself, when he saw Su Qianrou, he couldn’t help but gagged a few times. He hoped that no one had seen it.
When he heard Su Qianrou and her brother call the old lady “grandmother”, Song Heng immediately stood up and politely shook her hand, “Madam, my name is Song Heng. I’m Qianrou’s…friend.”
He had long heard from Su Qianrou that their grandmother was the pearl of the Royal Zhang family in the last century.
During the Qing Dynasty, they were all royal family members.
Although the Zhang family was no longer in power, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. It was said that this old lady’s house had a lot of antiques and treasures, and any one of them was worth a city.
Zhang Guihua nodded in appreciation, “she told me about you. You’re indeed a talented person. Most importantly, you have a good moral character. You didn’t leave her when she was in danger. I’m a good judge of character,” she looked at Su Qianrou, “you have a great friend!”
Song Heng looked even more handsome when he stood beside the disfigured Su Qianrou and Su Junye.
Her maid nodded in agreement.
Su Qianrou wanted to smile but couldn’t because the corners of her mouth hurt.
Song Heng helped Zhang Guihua to the side and sat down.
When Zhang Guihua saw her precious grandson, she was reminded of her unfilial granddaughter, Su Ji!
She told the children about how the Pei family had caused trouble, “help grandma analyze what the Pei family is trying to do this time.”
The three of them looked at each other. Finally, Su Junye spoke first, “could it be that Third Master Pei has taken a fancy to Su Ji?”
Song Heng’s expression turned cold as soon as he said that. Zhang Guihua and Su Qianrou laughed coldly at the same time.
Would Third Master Pei like Su Ji?
Had the Pei family gone crazy, or had her precious grandson become stupid?
With Song Heng around, Su Qianrou tried her best to look dignified, “the Pei family is such a prominent family with hundreds of years of history. They definitely value families of equal social status. Besides, the third young master of the Pei family is Old Master Pei’s favorite. I’m not trying to be humble, but I may not even be worthy of his attention, let alone Su Ji.”
Su Junye nodded. He thought that was reasonable.
Zhang Guihua said, “that’s right. I heard that Old Master Pei had arranged many blind dates for Third Master Pei in the past. All of them have good family backgrounds and good looks. Look at Su Ji…”
She kept shaking her head.
Song Heng’s expression softened after hearing that.
After a long while, Su Junye said, “I know!”
The rest of them looked at him at the same time.
“iI must be because Su Ji is always pestering CEO Pei and leeching off his popularity. He’s angry but can’t do anything to her since she’s working under Blue Whale, so he’s lashing out on us!
“…”
Other than this, no one could think of anything else.
Zhang Guihua said, “that must be the reason. I didn’t agree when Cunyi wanted to fight for her custody. She’s not a son. What’s there to fight for? See what’s happening now! He’d brought disaster to the family!”
For some reason, Song Heng suddenly laughed evilly, “there’s a scene tomorrow. I can help you teach Su Ji a lesson. Since CEO Pei feels that way about Su Ji, he should turn a blind eye to it, right?”

He did this not only because he wanted to please the Su family, but also because he hated Su Ji.
Su Ji had made a fool out of him last time, telling everyone that he wanted to sleep with her and embarrassed him. Until now, he still felt humiliated in front of his crew!

Meanwhile, Su Ji, who was reading the script, received a message.
Yang Xiaotao was selected.
However, because it was a last-minute change of character, she had to shoot the most intense scene tomorrow after just getting the role.
[ Xiaotao: “Su Ji, I’m going to be beaten up tomorrow. I’m so nervous. It’s my first time acting. Can’t I shoot a scene where I pour tea and hold an umbrella first?” ]
They were supposed to shoot according to the sequence, but because of Su Qianrou’s incident, it was disrupted.
However, since someone else was playing the role of Xiaomei, they received a different treatment.
Su Ji was sitting on the desk. Beside her was a plate of lychees that Xu Mingzhi had just sent over. They were crystal clear, and each shell had been peeled. They shone with the love of a mother!
Her slender and fair fingers tapped on the keyboard a few times, “don’t worry, I’ll take care of you. Just follow my lead.”
