Pei Jinchang and his wife's anomaly made other people confused.
Even the housekeeper Chen Henian stood up to persuade:
“Master, madam, Miss Anzhu voluntarily severed ties with the Pei family. She made it very clear at the time that we should not look for her again.”
As soon as Zhou Yalan heard this, her tears fell and she cried:
"How sad is she to say such cruel words! Is there any child in the world who doesn't long for the company of her parents? She grew up in the countryside and was already lonely. It was us who broke her heart!"
"Yes, she must have come back full of hope, but she was heartbroken by our attitude." Pei Jinchang also agreed and said, "Invite her back and apologize properly. Blood is thicker than water. That child is a People with good intentions won’t blame us.”
As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone and called Pei Anzhu.
At this moment, Pei Anzhu was squatting in the room on the second floor watching a play. She was very happy to see the Pei family saying things that were not in line with their intentions under the influence of the spell.
Looking at the faces of Pei Yu and Pei Mingzhu, they could not be darker.
Unexpectedly, before Lezi watched for a long time, the matter shifted to her.
Perception that the phone started to vibrate, Pei Anzhu quickly threw out a sound insulation note to prevent the sound from the second floor from reaching the downstairs and being discovered.
The words "Pei Jinchang" flashed on the screen.
Pei Anzhu didn't answer the call right away. She wanted to see what the charm on the boat could do.
She had to test the bottom line of the Pei family step by step before she could find a way to step on the bottom line and lure the old man of the Zhou family out.
So she let the phone ring three times, and only answered it on the fourth time.
"An Zhu?" Pei Jinchang's voice came. It was no longer cold and mean as before, but rather gentle and flattering.
“Mr. Pei, is something wrong?” Pei Anzhu asked.
"It's nothing, it's just your mother...she misses you a little bit. Can you come back and see me? We'll wait for you to have dinner." Pei Jinchang said.
"Mr. Pei, have you forgotten that the cause and effect between us has been settled, and the money and goods have been paid." Pei Anzhu said, "I will not come over and won't disturb your family."
"Don't..." Pei Jinchang noticed that Pei Anzhu wanted to hang up the phone and immediately stopped him and said, "It was my father who was wrong before. He shouldn't have treated you like that. Please give me a chance to make amends. Come back and we can talk in person." Let’s talk, okay?”
Pei Anzhu understands the principle of paying attention to the scale when handling Qiao.
She rejected Pei Jinchang once or twice because she was hurt by their previous attitudes, but she could not refuse his repeated entreaties because she "craved" family affection.
So, she agreed:
“I will only give you one last chance. If this time is the same as before, then we will never be in contact with each other.”
"Don't worry, it won't happen anymore. Then we'll wait for you to eat." Pei Jinchang heard Pei Anzhu's answer and showed a comfortable smile on his face.
Pei Anzhu hung up the phone and looked downstairs quietly with his consciousness.
She didn’t plan to show up soon. After all, she wanted to test their bottom line. She had to do something to see how tolerant they were, right?
So, she made the Pei family wait for two hours.
From six to eight o'clock in the evening, she did not show up. Pei Jinchang really did not allow Pei Yu and Pei Mingzhu to eat, and even the servants of the Pei family had to wait hungry.
Pei Mingzhu has been pampered since she was a child. Eating on time is just the basic thing. When has she ever been hungry?
Now after waiting for two hours, her stomach hurt.
But she didn’t dare to act coquettishly towards her parents like before. After all, her parents’ attitude was too wrong. She could only whisper to Pei Yu:
"Why isn't Anzhu coming? Brother, I'm really hungry."
She rubbed her stomach and looked a little unhappy.
When Pei Yu saw this, he couldn't help but said to Pei Jinchang:
“Dad, let’s eat first. The dishes are cold, and Mingzhu’s stomach is not feeling well. It’s okay to let her eat first if that’s not possible..."
As a result, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhou Yalan: "Pei Yu, you are an elder brother, why do you only favor Mingzhu? Will you not let them heat the dishes when they are cold? Besides, Mingzhu is only hungry for this. An Zhu has never had a good meal since he was a child, so he can’t even wait for this time? "
"It only takes more than two hours to get here from the Feng family. Counting the time, Anzhu is almost here. Why are you in a hurry?" Pei Jinchang also scolded him.
This night, although the atmosphere in the Pei family was silent, it was restless.
No one has it easy.
Everyone is looking forward to Pei Anzhu's arrival.
The two Pei family members have a "loving father and mother" heart and want to see their daughter as soon as possible; the Pei family brothers and sisters want to wait for everyone to gather so that they can start dinner.
The servants of the Pei family not only wanted to eat, but also wanted to watch a play. They wanted to see how the Pei family, who had a real and fake daughter, suddenly no longer loved the fake daughter they raised since childhood, but instead obsessed with the real daughter.
Twenty minutes later, Pei Anzhu appeared under the spotlight—
She climbed down from the balcony of her bedroom, followed the original path, and came to the gate of Junlintianxia villa area. Under the eyes of the security guard, she entered the community again.
This time no one stopped her.
It was not because of the Pei family, but because Shen Qinghe had brought her to show her face in front of the security guard, and the security guard knew that she was a distinguished guest of the Shen family.
Thinking of this, Pei Anzhu couldn't help but feel funny—
The "parental love" obtained through evil means is indeed illusory, as if it is crazy, but it never reaches reality.
If you were really worried about her, why didn't you think about the access control?
But it doesn’t matter, she’s not really here to ask for her parents’ love, she’s just here to investigate the case.
The moment she stepped into the door of Pei's house, almost everyone burst into tears, especially Zhou Yalan, who had well-developed tear ducts. She immediately stood up and hugged Pei Anzhu into her arms while crying:
“My poor daughter, you are finally back.”
Pei Anzhu:…
Pei Yu and Pei Mingzhu:…
No need to, really.
After all, you were not so "affectionate" when you first got Pei Anzhu back.
“Mother Chen, bring the hot food, it’s time to eat!” Pei Jinchang shouted and personally pulled out a chair for Pei Anzhu.
That is to say, Pei Jinchang is quite authoritative in this family. When has he ever done this kind of thing?
Everyone was silent for the next meal, and no one ate in silence.
After dinner, Pei Anzhu sat on a chair and said calmly:
“I’m tired, I want to go up and rest.”
"But Mr. Pei, don't forget the purpose of calling me back. You want to compensate me. If I wake up tomorrow and don't see the compensation I deserve, then I will never come back. "
As soon as Pei Jinchang heard this, he immediately said:
"Don't worry, I will make it up to you. You have suffered outside for the past twenty years. Dad will not let you down."
Pei Anzhu nodded with satisfaction, got up and walked upstairs.
Pei Mingzhu saw this and followed her. When she reached the second floor, she asked:
“Aren’t you unwilling to come back? I have asked you so many times before and advised you to communicate with your parents, but you have decisively rejected me. Why are you coming back now?”
Pei Anzhu turned around with a smile and asked instead:
“Hey, can’t you put on that gentle and kind face anymore?”
“You asked me to come back before, wasn’t it because you saw that your parents didn’t value me, and even if I came back it wouldn’t affect your status, so you were willing to behave in front of them?”
"Now people are begging me to come back, but you ran out to stop me. Is it because the current situation has exceeded your imagination and you don't want me to come back and break everything?"
