It was rare for her to have such a good dream. Pei Qingcheng had a good night's sleep.

For a long time, ever since Yinha died, hatred had been burning in her, and she had not had a single good night's sleep.

He didn't expect that he would be able to sleep by his enemy's side for the entire night.

When she sat up in bed, Nightingale was no longer by her side.

They slept on the same bed, but the two of them seemed to be separated by a river and a river.

Ye Wen was a gentleman, so he only slept on his side.

Just as he was about to get out of bed and go wash up, he saw a note on the bedside table.

It was left to her by Zhang Ye with a few words.

"Pei Zhijun is on the 9th floor. You can see him for half an hour."

Without batting an eyelid, Pei Qingcheng grabbed the paper and threw it into the trash can.

Suddenly, she bent down to pick up the note from the trash can and carefully read it again.

Why did she feel that Ye Wen's handwriting was very familiar?

It was as if he had seen it somewhere, and it was very, very familiar, engraved in his memory. However, he couldn't recall what it was either.

Forget it. She once again threw the note into the trash can, then stood up to wash her face and rinse her mouth.

Just as he finished washing up and was about to change his clothes, Tang Kefeng called him.

Because of the blood type incident yesterday, Pei Qingcheng felt a sense of discomfort in her heart.

She suddenly realized that she actually didn't understand Tang Kefeng that well.

She had once thought that her relationship with Tang Kefeng was no different from that of siblings.

In Pei Qingcheng's heart, Pei Zhijun was her doting elder brother, while Tang Kefeng was her older brother.

Ever since she was young, Tang Kefeng had known what she liked, what she wanted, and what she thought. He would do his best to satisfy her.

However, since yesterday, she found out that she didn't know him very well.

She did not know that her voice was unnatural. "Yes, but it's windy."

"You're up? Did you sleep well last night? " Tang Kefeng's gentle voice came from the other side of the phone.

"Hm." Pei Qingcheng gave a casual snort, "Not bad."

"Did Zhi Zun escape danger?" Tang Kefeng asked with concern.

When he mentioned her brother, Pei Qingcheng involuntarily thought of the conversation she had with Ding Han at the back stairs.

He said he had a reason. What made him give up on saving an old friend he grew up with?

Unknowingly, Pei Qingcheng's tone was cold and detached, "Hm, not bad at all."

"That's good. I was worried all night. Qing Qing, you don't have to worry too much. Let me see if I can find a way for you two to meet again.

She listened to what Tang Kefeng said, but she didn't tell him that she would be able to see her brother later.

Now that she was in a difficult situation, she had to be careful of everything.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Tang Kefeng, Pei Qingcheng hung up and hurriedly changed her clothes before heading downstairs to eat breakfast. She wanted to rush to the hospital to meet her brother.

Pei Zhijun was safe in the hospital now, but he might not be able to return to the prison.

Pei Zhijun was sentenced to eight years for manipulating the trading prices of securities futures. Eight years wasn't a long or short period of time, but because of his imprisonment, his father died in a drunk car accident, his mother jumped off a building, and his Pei family collapsed.

Pei Zhijun felt guilty.

This time, he was saved, but he didn't know what the next time would be.

Pei Qingcheng rushed to the hospital, and when she entered, she discovered that there was a man in the hospital room.

The man stood up and extended his hand towards Pei Qingcheng, "Greetings, Madam Ye. My name is Mo Changsheng. I'm a lawyer from the Dong Hua Lawyer Hall."

Mo Changsheng? Mo City's most famous lawyer? He was an expert in economic cases, but he was a arrogant person who was hard to recruit.

Needless to say, it must have been arranged by Ye Xiu.

Could it be that he wanted to reverse the case for his brother?

Pei Qingcheng politely nodded at him and looked towards her brother who was on the bed.

Pei Zi Yun's complexion looked much better. Pei Zi Yun took a few steps forward and held her brother's hand, "Do you feel well?"

"I made you worry." Pei Zhijun held onto Pei Qingcheng's hand tightly, the joints of his thin fingers were hurting.

She couldn't stop her nose from clogging up as she tried her best not to cry. "Brother, you've lost a lot of weight. You're even skinnier than the last time I saw you."

Lawyer Mo stood at the side and waited for the two siblings to finish their conversation before walking over. "Mrs. Ye, I've already talked to Mr. Pei about it. I think there are still a lot of doubts in Mr. Pei's case, so I plan to apply for a second trial."

Pei Qingcheng's eyes shone brightly, "If you can reverse the case for my brother, that would be for the best!"

The case of Pei Zhijun was a big sensation in Mo City. The crime was controlling the price of the stocks, causing many of the retail investors to go bankrupt. On the other hand, a large amount of money was added to the Pei company's account, which was why Pei Zhijun had been sentenced to eight years in prison.

This sentence is pretty heavy for economic crimes.

However, the words that Pei Zi Yun repeated the most every time he saw her were, "I did not do that."

Hence, Pei Qingcheng believed in her brother.

Now that Lawyer Mo was willing to help her brother, Pei Qingcheng felt a sense of hope.

If elder brother can be acquitted, mother will also be happy to immediately get better?

Lawyer Mo wanted to talk to Pei Zhijun. Pei Qingcheng urged her brother on a few more times before she prepared to leave.

Pei Zhijun suddenly grabbed Pei Qingcheng's wrist, "I heard that mother is in this hospital too?"

"Yes." Pei Qingcheng nodded her head. Indeed, her mother was in the hospital as well. In a while, she would go visit her mother.

Pei Zhijun's eyes turned red. "I want to go see mother."

In theory, it was impossible. Pei Zhijun was still a prisoner, and Pei Qingcheng's visit to him was already an exception.

However, Pei Qingcheng agreed immediately, "Okay, I will arrange it."

"Qingcheng, if you want to get tired of Ye Xiu, then forget it." Pei Zhijun stared at his sister, "I know that Lawyer Mo is invited by him, but at this point in time, I have no other choice but to accept his invitation. However, it's fine if it's just a small matter, but it's fine if I owe him less."

Pei Qingcheng knew what her brother meant by that. He did not want her to be tired from begging Ye Xiu.

However, Pei Qingcheng had her own thoughts.

They had not seen their mother since she had jumped off the building and her brother had gone to jail.

If her brother went to see her, her mother would be able to feel it. It might be helpful to her condition.

As long as there was hope, she would do it even if there was a tiny bit of hope.

Walking out of her brother's ward, she held the phone in her hand and took a deep breath. Finally, she mustered her courage and called Ye Xiu.

In her memory, she had never called Ye Xiu.

The phone was quickly connected, and a tired voice came out of the receiver.

Low, cold, not like the cold in the human world.

This sort of coldness was something that was ingrained in his bones. He couldn't help it.

"Hey, tilde."

Pei Qingcheng tightly held onto the phone, begging him to keep quiet, but she still had to do so.

"My brother wants to see my mother." She said it with difficulty.

"Alright." Ye Wen answered straightforwardly.

Actually, Pei Qingcheng could already imagine his reaction. He would definitely agree to it.

In regards to the request that Pei Qingcheng had made to him, he would always make it up to her.

Thanks was something he could never say, but with Pei Qingcheng's personality, she would never owe anyone, especially Ye Wen.

She gritted her teeth and tried to keep her tone calm, "Let's go home to eat tonight. I'll cook."

"Yes." Pei Qingcheng could hear the lustful tone of Ye's voice from the other side of the phone.

"What do you like to eat?"

"Steamed Fish, Seafood, Creamy Noodle Soup." Nightingale reported a series of foods.

Pei Qingcheng harrumphed, "I understand." Before hanging up, he added, "Go home early from work."

After hanging up, he suddenly felt that his words were a bit like that of an ordinary couple, their wife repeatedly exhorting her husband to come home early to eat after work.

She and Ye Wen would never become husband and wife like that.

At the top of the pyramid of the Ye Group, Ye Wen was holding a phone, his eyes still staring at the screen that had long been extinguished.

Ding Han was standing at the side with red date tea in his hand. He couldn't hear anything on the phone, but his wife was calling him, so he could roughly guess what she said.

It seemed that his grandpa's face was relaxed. The words that his wife had said on the phone must have been what he liked to hear.

He hesitated for a moment and then handed over the red date tea in his hand.

Housekeeper Hu repeatedly told me that red dates are to replenish my blood, so he urged me to replenish some of my blood.

However, Ye Wen hated the taste of red dates. He almost threw the cup along with the person he was drinking just now.

Ding Han was able to observe the situation and take advantage of Ye Xiu's good mood. He actually received the red date tea and drank half of it regardless of what it was.

After drinking it, he finally reacted. Raising his head, he glanced at Ding Han and asked, "What did you give me to drink?"

"Master, I've already drunk it all. It's best if you lose too much blood yesterday and make up for it." Ding Han smiled.

Ye Wen actually did not get angry, and he finished all the Red Jujube tea in his cup.

This was a strange rumor. It seemed like not only was I in a good mood today, but it was also extremely good.

Ding Han took the opportunity to ask, "Was it Madam who called just now?"

"She cooks dinner tonight."

However, he was showing off every single word.

Show off your wife to cook for him at home?

Ding Han's face turned stiff. This was the first time in his life he had eaten till his wife cooked dinner. Was Ding Han going to congratulate him?

Taking advantage of Ye Xiu's good mood, Ding Han carried around a bunch of project cases that Ye Wen had been unwilling to pass. "Master, please look at these and give us an amendment opinion. Otherwise, the people below will not know how to change it."

Noticing that Zhang Ye was staring at him tiredly, Ding Han quickly added, "After reading all of this, you just happen to be off work. It will not delay you and your wife having a good dinner together."

Nightingale finally picked up the pen on the table and flipped through the documents in front of her.

Ding Han stood at the side, pondering. Just now, he had counted all the ingredients that his grandpa had mentioned. Could it be that his wife had asked him what he liked to eat?

However, fish, shrimp, seafood, cream pasta, it was clearly my wife's favorite!

Did he fall in love with a man wholeheartedly and lose himself?

Ding Han secretly sent a text message to Housekeeper Hu: "Today, Madam will be cooking so that everyone in the kitchen will be able to call for help."

Then, would everyone in the Manor of Zhuang Shengxiao's Dream Mansion automatically disappear tonight?
