Monday was the day the Pei family had scheduled to go to the hospital for a check-up.
Pei Qingfei has deliberately asked for leave to go to B Central Hospital with her parents.
Her and Qi Cheng's house is small, although it has two bedrooms and one living room, but because they slept together, the second bedroom was changed to a study. Apart from a large bed, there was no place to sleep, so Pei Qing Fei leaned on her favorite sofa.
Early in the morning, she was falling asleep, and was awakened by a slight noise. When Pei Qingfei opened her eyes, she realized that Pei's father had not greeted her and her mother. She was neatly dressed and was about to go out.
"Dad, where are you going?" Pei Qingfei asked suspiciously.
Pei Shifang looked at his daughter and sighed, "Go to work, let your mother stay here, I can go to the hospital by myself."
What are you kidding
Pei Qingfei immediately objected, "No, we have to accompany you."
In Pei Qingfei's view, family members must be present for such a big event.
The voice of the father and daughter arguing alarmed Zheng Huizhong. She came out of the room and was shocked to see her husband who was about to go out secretly.
At this time, it can be clearly seen who Pei Qingfei's temperament is following, and neither father and daughter will give in on this matter.
Pei Qingfei insisted on going with the family, but Pei Shifang refused. He walked back and sat on the chair in the dining room without saying a word.
Neither Mother Pei nor Pei Qingfei could read his silent protest. If the mother and daughter had to follow him, then he had no choice but to not go.
Pei Qingfei's eyes were flushed with anger. She really didn't understand what happened to her father. She had grown up. He refused to let her participate in such a big thing as he was sick. Even if she obediently went to work, she could bear it well.
The two were at a stalemate, and it was Pei's mother who finally broke the silence.
"Old Pei, if you insist, then fine, you go, I'll wait for you at home." Pei's mother walked to her husband and put her hand on his shoulder.
This seemingly trivial move made Pei Shifang release his tense nerves.
"Mom..." Pei Qingfei was puzzled, she was about to speak, but Zheng Huizhong waved at her, signaling her not to say more.
Pei's mother checked the items that Pei Shifang carried with him.
The ID card, bank card, and inspection report from Lingjiang City confirmed that he didn't drink water or eat in the morning. After he was able to have a blood test and various inspections, she sent her husband out the door all the way.
Before leaving, Pei Shifang glanced at his daughter. He wanted to say goodbye to her daughter, but found that she was standing by the window with her back turned, not looking at him at all.
Pei Shifang smiled. This girl in his family is rarely temperamental. She never says bad things to her parents. When she is unhappy, she just shows a cold face, but when she is alone for a while, she will soon be able to make this happen. An unpleasant page turned over.
No one had ever said that Pei Shifang was a daughter slave, but he knew that although he could not be regarded as doting Pei Qingfei since he was a child, he thought that if Pei Qingfei would not grow up, he would be able to protect her for the rest of his life.
Pei Shifang wanted to say goodbye to his daughter, but he felt that the word was not very auspicious, so he didn't say goodbye and went out like this.
When Zheng Huizhong sent her husband away and turned around to see her daughter, she saw her sitting on the small blanket in front of the window, her hands on her knees, her back looking lonely and pitiful.
Mother Pei turned around and saw Pei Qingfei crying.
Mother Pei pulled her daughter up, "Okay, Qing Fei, don't be sad."
Pei Qingfei turned her head away, "I really don't know why Dad is so stubborn, how can he really let him go by himself."
Mother Pei sighed and pulled her daughter to sit beside her, "Your father was so tepid when he was young, but I have been married to him for so many years, I understand how strong and stubborn he is, he always wants to Doing Tiantian protects his grandmother, his wife and daughter, so he refuses to let his most helpless side show in front of us."
After Mama Pei finished speaking, she stroked her daughter's hair. Pei Qingfei had really grown up. She was more like herself when she was a child. Now her eyebrows and eyes are like a copy of her husband. Mama Pei sighed, "Qingfei, you He really looks like your father, but if you were in his current situation, you might be able to understand his thoughts."
Pei Qingfei wanted to refute, but she opened her mouth, but in the end she couldn't say a word.
Pei Shifang came to the hospital alone, he registered in advance, and then he only needed to complete various examinations according to the doctor's requirements.
After a lot of tossing, it was noon. Fortunately, several items on an empty stomach were over, and he ate alone near the hospital.
It would take two days for the test results to come out. The doctor asked Pei Shifang to go back and wait for the results after reading his medical certificate from Lingjiang City.
Pei Shifang was a little surprised when he returned home to see his wife and daughter.
"Dad is back," the daughter called to her busy wife in the kitchen.
Pei Shifang thought that this girl would not take care of herself for at least a day or two, but she didn't expect to change her mood so quickly.
"Didn't you go to work?" Pei Shifang said warmly.
Pei Qingfei replied while tying her hair, "Go, but everyone told me to come back early, and I just entered the door."
Mother Pei's soup was already boiled on the fire. She wiped her hands and asked her husband with a smile, "How is the test result?"
Mother Pei was like asking her husband if the seminar was going well on weekdays, and she couldn't see anything unusual.
Pei Shifang's mentality was also very relaxed, "The result has not come out, and I will go again in two days."
"Then, are you alone?" Mother Pei asked softly.
Pei Shifang shook his head, "I want you to accompany me then."
Mother Pei's eyes were a little wet, and the answer surprised her but also pleased her.
Pei Shifang looked at his wife's face, she also had a youthful youth, and gave up a lot because of her love for herself and her daughter during the years with her. color, but when Pei Shifang stubbornly went out, lying alone beside the instrument to undergo various examinations, he could only think of his wife's face, and when he was afraid of death and pain, he also really hoped There is someone who can stay by his side, and he shouldn't push her hand away for those unwarranted self-esteem.
"Are you willing?" Pei Shifang asked.
This made Pei's mother have an illusion, as if back to the time when this man proposed to him, he didn't have any sweet words, and he simply asked himself, would you like it.
"Okay." Mother Pei replied with a smile.
Pei Qingfei had already left the living room to her parents and walked to the kitchen alone.
There was something cooking on the fire, and she could hear the gurgling sound of boiling inside.
She thought about Qi Cheng a little, wanted to know what she was doing, wanted to know if she was doing well, she wanted to call Qi Cheng and listen to her voice, but she took out the phone and hesitated to put it down.
The voice was difficult to understand her lovesickness. Maybe she should ask Qi Cheng out for a meal at noon tomorrow. After all, after studying abroad, she and Qi Cheng have never been separated a few times.
Pei Qingfei wanted to invite Qi Cheng to dinner, and Qi Cheng was going to someone else's dinner, and he enjoyed the hot pot.
"This store is not bad, I have to leave a business card and bring Qing Fei over next time." Qi Cheng did not forget to leave the business card of the restaurant while eating.
Tian Xiaotian, Su Ya and Jiang Chu lined up in a row, watching her eating from across from Qi Cheng.
Su Ya looked at Tian Xiaotian suspiciously, "I think her appetite is very good, she doesn't look like something is wrong, but if she eats like this, I will not be responsible for paying the bill today."
Tian Xiaotian has become accustomed to Qi Cheng's calm performance these days, and sighed, "I have grown up, I have really grown up, I think when I was still in college, Xiao Qingmei replied a little late, this guy is going to The mourning began."
Who said no, Su Ya nodded in cooperation.
Jiang Chu is also a serious person at this table.
"How about I go see Uncle Pei for you? Let's see what's going on over there?"
This proposal is quite valuable, and Jiang Chu's identity is also suitable, so it won't make people feel awkward to visit.
But Qi Cheng shook his head, "Dad Pei came to City B for an inspection. Since there is no news from Qing Fei, it can only mean that the results have not come out yet. Qing Fei will not hide such a big thing. Mine, she will definitely tell me as soon as there is a conclusion."
After eating the meat and simmering the vegetables, Qi Cheng ordered himself a handful of vegetable juice noodles.
"Are you eating?" Qi Cheng remembered and asked the other three people after taking his own amount.
The three of them sat in a row, acted in unison, and shook their heads.
Tian Xiaotian even made a gesture of invitation, "You continue, don't think about us."
Qi Cheng was also welcome. Seeing that the noodles were cooked, he put two chopsticks into the bowl.
Halfway through the meal, Qi Cheng seemed to remember something, and looked up at the three of them, "It's just inconvenient for me to go home, I'm afraid I'll be embarrassed to see Papa Pei and Mama Pei, I'm not breaking up with Qing Fei, are you thinking too much. "
The three of you look at me, I look at you, speechless.
"Don't worry, don't worry, we are all adults, we can face it together if there is any problem." Qi Cheng smiled.
"Aren't you afraid that uncles and aunts take this as an opportunity to ask you to separate?" Jiang Chu's voice fell, and Qi Cheng's chopsticks shook slightly, and the noodles he just picked up fell into the bowl.
She was afraid. The moment she went home and opened the door to see Dad Pei, she thought of the worst possibility.
Qi Orange was finally unable to eat anymore.
Su Ya pushed Jiang Chu, he felt that Jiang Chu's words were too much.
Jiang Chu also felt that he cleared his throat and picked up the spoon.
"That, Qi Cheng, do you want some soup? I'll serve it for you?" Jiang Chu, who was in trouble, said diligently.
Qi Cheng shook his head, "I'm full."
Qi Cheng had a happy meal just now, and a few of them were very worried. Now that Qi Cheng was full and couldn't eat any more, they felt that it was pretty good just now, and people are so contradictory.
"That, Qi Cheng, Jiang Chu is talking nonsense."
"That's right, he's talking nonsense."
"Yes, yes, I'm talking nonsense. Uncle Pei is a high-level intellectual, how could he do such a thing."
Where can Qi Cheng still hear the words, she thought that she should go back and have a look at some time, no matter what the adults think, she can't keep showing up.
As a result, before she could go back, Papa Pei had already come to the door first.
At noon the next day, Qi Cheng suddenly received a call.
"Qi Cheng, your mother and I want to invite you to lunch, do you have time?"
