A huge pit appeared in front of Pei Qingji. He looked down and saw that it was indeed the hole he had dug. It was huge and deep!
Han Qianye crossed her arms. “Do you have anything else to say?”
Pei Qingji went all out. “At most, I’ll sever my father-son relationship with him. He didn’t inherit the genes of my Pei family’s big love seed. I’ll treat this account as useless.”
Han Qianye said, “Put righteousness before family. You’re really good.”
Pei Qingji smiled, then asked carefully, “Then what do you think of this matter now?”
Han Qianye was in a bad mood. Just from her tone, it was obvious that she was very annoyed. “It was just my momentary intuition. I didn’t expect it to be true. The child’s father is confirmed, but I don’t even know who the mother of the child is. I’m worried about how to get the identity of the mother out of
Jingzhou, but I can’t let Xixi notice. Xixi still thinks that the child is Madam Di Xin’s grandson.”
Pei Qingji’s lips curled up. “Do you think it’s possible that the mother of the child is not an outsider?”
Han Qianye frowned and was feeling annoyed. “If she hasn’t entered my Pei family, she’s an outsider. It’s impossible for her to be a member of the Pei family just because she gave birth to a son. My position is very clear. I definitely won’t acknowledge anyone else except Xixi.” Pei Qingji smiled. “You’ve said something similar in the past.”
Han Qianye: “?”
Pei Qingji repeated, “My position is very clear. I will never approve of that substitute as my daughter-in-law.”
Han Qianye:
With this reminder, Han Qianye remembered. When she said this, she did not expect that one day, she would try her best to maintain the relationship between her son and daughter-in-law.
The more Han Qianye thought about it, the angrier she became. She raised her elbow and bumped Pei Qingji’s chest. “How is that possible! Jingzhou and Xixi have only been married for less than three years. That child is already three years old, right? She also had to be nine months pregnant. There’s no logic at all.
Pei Qingji said, “What if?”
Han Qianye said, “Impossible, absolutely impossible.”
Pei Qingji said meaningfully, “Then think about it from another perspective. That child’s biological mother is Little You.”
Han Qianye was stunned when she heard Pei Qingji’s words. “Huh?”
Pei Qingji raised his hand and tapped Han Qianye’s forehead with his fingertip. “You looked quite smart just now. Why are you so slow when it comes to the point?”
Han Qianye carefully understood what Pei Qingji had just said.
If the child’s biological mother was Little You, and it just so happened that she
now suspected Xixi’s identity and guessed that Xixi might be Little You after
losing her memory, something had already happened four years ago. Jingzhou
had deceived everyone and kept Little You by his side in another way.
If that was the case, Little You’s child is also Xixi’s child?
She immediately understood. Han Qianye’s eyes widened. “This…”
Pei Qingji sneered. “The brat is quite shrewd.”
Han Qianye raised her hand and massaged her temples. As she spoke, she walked towards the bathroom. “After receiving so much information in one night, my mind is in a mess. I have to calm down. Don’t disturb me.”
Han Qianye was thinking about this while washing her face and skincare. She was also thinking about this while taking a bath. She was also thinking about this when drying her hair. Her mind was filled with this.
She thought about it.
There was no point in thinking that, she realized. She had to get Li Xiwu’s hair and the child’s hair for a DNA test. Moreover, she could not do it openly. She could not let Li Xiwu notice. After getting Li Xiwu and the child’s DNA test and confirming all their guesses, she would throw all these results in Jingzhou’s face and ask what had happened all these years.
The next day.
Li Xiwu, who had been dreamless all night, accidentally fell into a dream when the sky was just light. This time, the scene in the dream was a hospital.
She guarded the bed and carefully took care of the withered woman on it.
During this period, she tried many times to see the appearance of the woman on the bed clearly, but no matter what, she could not see clearly. The scene in front of her was always blurry. Only the smell of disinfectant and the doctor in a white coat walking over from time to time made her confirm that she was in the hospital.
The doctor beside her said something. She looked down instinctively, but saw her slightly bulging stomach. Her face was blank and helpless.
At this moment, the woman lying on the bed stretched out her thin and bony hand and called out, “Little You…
Li Xiwu subconsciously held the hand. She wanted to say something, but her throat seemed to be hoarse and she couldn’t say a word.
The woman in the hospital bed said, “There’s no time to say goodbye properly… ”
Li Xiwu shook her head, her tears falling uncontrollably. “No, wait a little longer…”
The equipment beside her beeped. It sounded very harsh and urgent. Soon, doctors came in one by one. Li Xiwu was carefully helped to the side. Her ears were filled with the sound of crying, and she could vaguely hear the doctor say, “Her heart rate is slowing down. Hurry, send her to the emergency room.”
Her blurry vision kept changing the venue. She didn’t see anyone clearly. By the time she realized what was going on, she was lying on the operating table, the doctor’s steady questioning ringing in her ears. “Have you really thought it through? It might be too late…”
“We’ll make it. We’ll definitely make it…
The dream stopped here.
Li Xiwu’s eyes snapped open. Her heaving chest reminded her that the dream had upset her. At this moment, a hand reached to her face and wiped her tears.
Li Xiwu thought it was Pei Jingzhou. When she looked up, she met a pair of large, confused eyes. The kid’s hair was a mess, and his soft little face was full of doubt.
They looked at each other for a moment. It took her a moment to realize that she had slept with Yaoyao last night. When she woke up, she had almost forgotten that she had a little guy with her.
She pushed herself up slowly from the bed. “Did I wake you?” she asked the kid. Yaoyao nodded.
Li Xiwu smiled bitterly. “Sorry. Do you still want to sleep, then? I can sleep with you for a while longer.”
With that, she took her phone and looked at the time. It was only six-thirty. It was still early.
Yaoyao shook his head, indicating that he was not sleeping anymore. But Yaoyao was curious and asked her, “Why are you crying?”
Li Xiwu was stunned. “Did I cry?”
Yaoyao pointed at Li Xiwu’s face. “Tears.”
Li Xiwu raised her hand to wipe the tears from her face. As expected, she was crying again. It was not completely dry yet. Even her eyelashes were wet.
Yaoyao asked again, “Why are you crying?”
Li Xiwu was in a dark mood. Her answer was, “I’m not feeling well.”
When Yaoyao heard Li Xiwu say that she was not feeling well, he nervously leaned over to Li Xiwu. Then, he raised his hand and pressed it against Li Xiwu’s forehead.
Li Xiwu cooperated and didn’t move.
Yaoyao had learned this action from an adult, but he didn’t know what temperature represented physical discomfort, so he stood up again and pressed his forehead to Li Xiwu’s..
