"You are the one who is wavering! I'm too lazy to tell you! " Xia Zhi stood up and said snappily, "Your family's butler is already on his way here, he will take good care of you. I won't accompany you anymore, I'm leaving! "

she said, and went out.

Lucien snorted, "What a ruthless woman!"

Although she had only seen Mo Yanqiu once many years ago, and had even forgotten what Mo Yanqiu looked like over the years. That one time however, had caused her to deeply remember the flames that jumped about in her son's eyes as he looked at Mo Yanqiu.

What happened later proved again and again that her son loved the girl so much.

For Mo Yanqiu, he had loved without mercy for many years, and in the end, he had even hurt others and hurt herself.

Just as Pei Yaochen was about to say something, a knock came from outside the door, followed by Xie Ziyi's voice from behind, "Mom, Yao Chen, you guys don't have to worry about me, I'll do it myself."

Mrs. Pei was ecstatic, she anxiously got up and dragged Xie Ziyi in, and asked with concern: "Why did you come here alone so late at night? How are you feeling? Are you all right? "

Xie Ziyi shook her head, "I just have a cold, the medicine is much better, don't worry."

Pei Yaochen frowned, "When I left, you had a terrible fever. Why didn't you lie down at the hotel and come over to watch the show?"

Xie Ziyi's eyes reddened, "I no longer have a fever. Also, I promise not to touch the child today and not speak to him. I promise not to let my disease spread to him. "I swear!"

She raised her hand. Tears welled up in her eyes, making her look indescribably alluring.

Mrs. Pei felt extremely bad, she anxiously pushed Pei Yaochen away and fiercely glared at him, then reprimanded: "How come you don't know how to care for the fairer sex at all? A little girl like her, who was unfamiliar with everything when she first came back here, who had come all the way here in order to spend the next year with us, dragging her frail body along with her in the snow. Why did you blame her instead of asking if she was feeling well? You really don't know what's good for you! Shu Ting, ignore him. Come, come with me. We're going to keep watch for the new year together. We'll go ask the dean for a room together. "

She had always felt that other than asking for money, she had other intentions. However, ever since she had investigated and found out that she had a clean background and was extremely kind to her sons and grandchildren, she had let her guard down.

Especially now, when a girl who looked extremely similar to Mo Yanqiu appeared out of thin air, she was afraid that Pei Yaochen would make the same mistake again.

Pei Yaochen wanted to object, but Mrs. Pei already pulled Shu Ting away without a care.

Pei Yaochen had no choice but to give up the idea of making a trip to the hospital. He planned to look for an opportunity tomorrow.

There was a separate VIP building in the nursing home for the patients' families so that they could rest or stay when they came to visit.

However, although the environment here was first-rate, there were very few people living here.

So even though Pei Yaochen went late, he still got a room that he was satisfied with.

Originally, he wanted to get two rooms, one for himself and his child, and one for Shu Ting and his mother. However, Mrs. Pei refused to do so no matter what, he had to stay with the family and watch the year, forcing him to get a suite with only two bedrooms.

Pei Yaochen knew what she was planning, but it was not easy to see through his.

After entering the room, just as he arranged for the child to sleep, Xie Ziyi came to the door of the room and stood there looking like an angry wife. With her head lowered and her hands held together, she timidly said: "Sir, Old Mistress Pei invites you out for a bit."

She had actually changed back to her original form of address.

Although he had hoped so, but the timing was not right today, and there was even the possibility of it being intentional. Did she want to use this method to gain his sympathy, or did she want to provoke Mrs. Pei to uphold justice for her?

Pei Yaochen frowned, took a step forward and said coldly: "Since it's New Year's Eve, and since you've worked hard to drag your sick body here to guard the year with us, then no matter how uncomfortable you are, make me happy! Don't piss me off and make me angry! Furthermore, don't make the old ladies outside worry. Otherwise, don't blame me for not being nice to you on such a special day! "

Hearing that, Xie Ziyi's eyes reddened again, and she stuttered as if she wanted to say something.

Pei Yaochen said in a stern and low voice, "No matter how much tears you have to hold back!"

His words caused Xie Ziyi to shudder. She knew that he was serious, so she hurriedly forced back her tears and nodded, "I understand. I won't give you or the old lady any trouble! Rest assured, I will perform well! "

"It's good that you know this!" Pei Yaochen snorted, then walked past her and walked out.

Xie Ziyi stared at his back, feeling very vexed and a bit doubtful.

She knew he was afraid her illness would infect the child, so she didn't want her to come.

But she had clearly promised him that she would never get close to the child, and besides, after a day's rest, she no longer had a fever, so why was he so resistant to her, and so disgusted, as if her presence had ruined some good thing for him?

This was too strange!

Had something special happened while she was gone?

And it was also because of this that Mrs. Pei, who had not been cold nor hot to her before, was so intimate with her?

Just as he was thinking with suspicion, Mrs. Pei's voice came from afar, "Shu Ting, quickly come and watch the party. There was a skit! Very funny. "

Xie Ziyi hurriedly composed herself, then turned and walked over. She sat down next to Mrs. Pei, took a blanket and covered her legs, and offered her a cup of hot water. "Aunty, please drink some hot water. I know you like drinking tea, but it's not early yet. I'm afraid drinking tea will affect your sleep, so just drink some tea to moisten your throat. "

"Child, you are so meticulous! I entrust my son to you, my grandson. Mrs. Pei laughed in satisfaction, and pulled Xie Ziyi's hand, and then waved towards Pei Yaochen who was seated far away on the other sofa, "The whole family can just watch a television, why are you sitting so far away by yourself? I had to shout at the top of my lungs. Are you going to tire me to death? Hurry and come over, sit on my left side! "

Pei Yaochen was helpless, he could only walk over and sit on her right side.

As soon as he sat down, Mrs. Pei immediately pulled his right hand over Xie Ziyi's hand, and said smilingly: "This is how a family should pass their holidays. This is true happiness! "

Feeling the warmth of Pei Yaochen's palm, Xie Ziyi was so happy that her heart was beating wildly. She raised her head and peeked at Pei Yaochen shyly, only to see that although he had a smile on his face, that smile had never reached her eyes.

Not only that, but there was also a faint trace of disgust, impatience, and anxiety in her eyes. It made her heart go cold, and she was even more certain that something had happened, which had severely affected the river and mountain that she had worked so hard for.

What was going on?

Could it be that her true identity was found out by Pei Yaochen?

Thinking about that, he could not help but break out in cold sweat, he felt extremely anxious, but he was suddenly afraid of facing Pei Yaochen.

At midnight, everyone on TV cheered and cheered. Looking at the joyous smiles on everyone's faces, Xie Ziyi's smile was stiff.

Pei Yaochen stood up, took out a big red packet from his bosom, and kneeled down to Mrs. Pei. "Mom, happy new year.

Xie Ziyi also quickly got up and knelt down, then took out a present she prepared beforehand and presented it to her with both hands, "Aunt, I also wish you a healthy and happy life for a hundred years!"

"Be good!" All of you, quickly get up! " Mrs. Pei received it with a smile and also took out three big red packets, "Come, come. I'll also give each of you a big red packet. One for Shu Ting, one for and one for the child. However, Shu Ting should keep these red packets. As a housekeeper, a man's money should be kept by a woman. As for children, Shu Ting will take them all for now.

"This?" Shu Ting uneasily looked at Pei Yaochen and said awkwardly, "Aunt, I am not a good person to manage money, why don't we hand this over to Yao Chen to manage?"

"Just take it! "This little bit of money, our Pei Family can afford to lose!" Pei Yaochen said lightly.

Mrs. Pei glared fiercely at Pei Yaochen, "What are you saying? What was defeat? You are in charge of supporting the family, she is in charge of being as beautiful as a flower! Women are born to spend money, only then will it be worth it! "

Pei Yaochen laughed helplessly, "Good, good, good. "Mom, you're right!"

Mrs. Pei laughed with satisfaction, "Alright. It's getting late. We've been tired all day. Rest well, tomorrow is the first day of the new year, let's go for a walk together on Chinatown tomorrow, that place must have a strong smell of the new year! After the first day of training, I won't keep you any longer. Hurry up and follow your original plan to visit your father-in-law! "

"Alright. "I'll listen to you." Pei Yaochen smiled perfunctorily, "Then good night. May I help you into the room? "

Mrs. Pei shook his head, "You can go in first. I still have a few words that a woman would like to say to Shu Ting. "

Xie Ziyi was inexplicably uneasy. She did not know why Mrs. Pei had kept her here alone.
