CHAPTER 955: CHAPTER 957: WENT TOO FAR

"He always valued money more than life." Pei Yicheng lowered his eyes. When he heard that Pei Guozhong was in trouble and taken away by the ambulance, he was momentarily dazed. Ultimately, he still rushed to the hospital as fast as he could.

At the entrance of the emergency room, Wan Hongxing was standing there alone, and the worry in his eyes did not seem fake.

Pei Yicheng stood in the dark corner, watching Pei Yining hurriedly arrive with Pei Yijian, hearing Pei Yining anxiously say that she couldn’t contact him.

Only when Pei Guozhong was out of danger and he knew he was safe, did Pei Yicheng leave.

He realized that no matter how much he resented and hated him, when he heard he was in life-threatening danger, he couldn’t completely detach himself.

"Dad worked hard to earn money for our family. Brother, are you really not going to see him?" Pei Yining pursed her lips, unhappily looking at Pei Yicheng, sadly saying, "You don’t know, he almost got paralyzed. Now half of his body can’t move, and he looks much older. Brother, he is our father."

Pei Yining’s eyes were glistening with tears as she looked at Pei Yicheng, pleading, "Please go see Dad. Dad misses you a lot. I know you resent him, hate him, but do you want him to be lonely for the rest of his life? Aunt Wan is very nice."

"Yining." Pei Yicheng’s dark eyes looked at her, and Pei Yining unconsciously shivered inside. He softened his tone and said, "Tomorrow, I have an appointment with Cheng Hao to go to Liunian Factory. Liunian Factory has doubled in size, and I need to take a look."

"Oh."

Pei Yining lowered her eyes, concealing the sadness and disappointment in her heart. She got up and walked upstairs.

Under the dim light, Yining’s back looked exceptionally lonely. Suddenly, Pei Yicheng sat up and softly said, "Tomorrow, I’ll take you to the hospital."

Pei Yining turned around in surprise, her face that was just filled with disappointment and sadness now instantly filled with joy.

...

The next day, Xu Nianhua and Xu Nian’an, the siblings, had packed their prepared belongings early. Luckily, they had Pei Yicheng’s car; otherwise, carrying everything onto the train would not have been easy for them.

"Brother, I also want to go see Sister Nianhua and Brother Nian’an off." Pei Yijian had fallen asleep last night before Pei Yicheng went into the room. When he woke up in the morning, his brother was already busy downstairs. He thought his brother had come to sleep in the room only after he himself had fallen asleep, which made him very happy.

"Let’s go together."

Pei Yicheng replied, taking the driver’s seat, and the few of them fit perfectly.

"Sister Nianhua, what’s your home like?"

Pei Yijian looked at Xu Nianhua curiously. He liked Xu Nianhua very much. His thoughts were simple: if his brother liked her, then he liked her too, and in the future, his brother would definitely like him as well.

"Our home..." Xu Nianhua drew out her tone. Being asked so broadly by Pei Yijian, she didn’t know what to say for a moment. After thinking for a while, she said, "Our home is in a village but it’s very beautiful. In the summer, there are many fireflies. In the winter, we can go to the mountains to dig for winter bamboo shoots. The soup made from bamboo shoots is especially delicious. Also, not far from our house, there’s a pond. During the New Year, we catch fish there."

"With a big net thrown in, all the fish are driven into a corner. Standing on the bank, you can only see the tails of the fish splashing up waves, and you can wear waterproof clothes to catch loaches in the pond." After Xu Nianhua finished speaking, she noticed Pei Yijian’s eyes sparkling brightly, with obvious anticipation.

Xu Nianhua touched her nose sheepishly; she seemed to have said too much.

"Sister Nianhua, when can I go to your house to play? I want to eat winter bamboo shoot soup and watch the fish-catching." Pei Yijian looked at Xu Nianhua eagerly.
