"I'm doing fine, you don't have to feel guilty, and it's all in the past. I have a family now, and two children. In fact, when I found out about this, I was really at a loss, and even found it incredible..."
The old man nodded and choked up.
"Yeah, now I know..."
"I'm fine..."
Looking at such an old man, Qi Zaozao suddenly felt a little sad.
It's an indescribable feeling.
At first, she felt unbelievable, incredible, and hard to accept! But when she saw the old man in front of her, facing his guilt and excitement, she felt that it was a little late. If she had known about this earlier, she could have tried to visit him.
Mr. Shen is a very old man, but his health is getting worse day by day, and no one knows how long he can last.
Pei Yifei went out.
Old Master Shen held Qi Zaozao's hand and asked her a lot of questions, including how she spent her childhood, how she got married, and about her two children. Later, Xuanxuan and Lele were also called in.
Pei Yifei stood outside the door, listening to the laughter of the children and the elderly inside, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
In the end, the old man couldn't hold on any longer, and Qi Zao Zao came out with the child.
Maybe it was because she had opened up, Qi Zaozao felt relieved. Although it felt very sudden, when she thought about the fact that she also had relatives, she felt warm in her heart.
"Mommy, is he really my grandfather?"
Qi Zao Zao was stunned for a moment, looked at Xuan Xuan, and nodded slightly, "Yes, he is Mommy's grandfather..."
"Wow!" Xuanxuan exclaimed.
The smile in Qi Zaozao's eyes became even more intense, but at this moment, she thought of Pei Yifei and looked around.
"Daddy's down there—"
Lele lay on the railing.
Qi Zao Zao walked over and saw a middle-aged man sitting opposite Pei Yifei on the sofa in the living room. They were saying something and Pei Yifei nodded from time to time.
The middle-aged man's expression seemed very serious. At this moment, he seemed to have noticed the movement upstairs. He raised his eyes and looked up. When he met Qi Zaozao's gaze, his eyes lit up instantly and his whole expression became extremely excited.
Qi Zao Zao was stunned and guessed who he was.
He is the third young master of the Shen family and Qi Zaozao’s uncle, Shen Fei!
While Qi Zaozao was stunned, Shen Fei immediately came upstairs and grabbed Qi Zaozao's hand, "You are Zaozao, right? I recognized you at first sight. Although your eyes are like the eldest sister-in-law, the rest of your body is like the eldest brother..."
Qi Zaozao was stunned again, and Xuanxuan and Lele also blinked their eyes.
Shen Fei then realized that he was a little too excited and let go of Qi Zaozao's hand, "I really am too excited... It's been so many years... When you were taken away, you were still so small..." He gestured with his hands.
Qi Zao Zao was a little embarrassed.
She is now a mother of two children, but in Shen Fei's eyes, there is still such a little one...
So small...
Shen Fei and Old Man Shen were both similar. They were both very happy and excited to see Qi Zaozao. Shen Fei even talked to Qi Zaozao alone.
"I have asked someone to investigate your past affairs. Don't blame me. I am not doubting you. I am..."
"I understand."
Shen Fei did not doubt Qi Zaozao. He went to see Li Kui, and Li Kui said everything. Besides, although the pretended Qi Zaozao looked like the real one, it still looked a bit strange. As soon as Qi Zaozao appeared in front of him, he believed it without a doubt.
The reason why he investigated Qi Zaozao was that he wanted to know how she had been living these years. She had a very hard life, it was really very hard!
"Don't blame your second uncle. In fact, those things are-"
Qi Zao Zao interrupted Shen Fei and said, "Before I came here, I couldn't accept this matter. Although I feel better now, I think it will take some time..."
Qi Zao Zao smiled and said.
Shen Fei paused for a moment, "Okay, I understand! If you have any problems in the future, come here to find me and your grandfather..."
Qi Zao Zao neither refused nor agreed.
Really, she still needs some time to calm down.
It's just a matter of time.
Qi Zaozao talked to Shen Fei for a while, and then Shen Cheng came back.
Mr. Shen and Shen Fei were excited to see Qi Zaozao, but Shen Cheng was embarrassed to see Qi Zaozao and didn't know what to say. Qi Zaozao didn't say anything either.
After all, such a thing happened, and Qi Zaozao is in such a position now, it is better not to say anything.
The Shen family is a wealthy family in City C. When they heard that their granddaughter had been found, all kinds of gossips came immediately. Qi Zaozao had planned to go back, but was stopped before she could go back.
She stayed at the Shen family for a total of three days. During these three days, she felt like she was almost becoming face-blind. She met so many people and was addressed by so many different names that even Xuanxuan and Lele were almost dizzy.
The Pei family is also a wealthy family, but Pei Yifei is a loner in this regard, and the Pei family does not have these gossips, so when Qi Zao Zao became the daughter-in-law of the Pei family, this did not happen.
Pei Yifei, on the other hand, was very polite and to Qi Zaozao's surprise, he was not even angry.
"Oh, I remember, I was so little then, but now I'm that big, I even have a child, and I found such a good husband, I'm so blessed!"
"That's not true. I heard that Yifei is successful in his career. The Pei family is no worse than the Shen family!"
"I am so lucky! Although I have been missing for so many years, it is worth it to find such a good husband..."
"Look at what you're saying!"
"I'm kidding! Hey, this is really a happy event. Can't you see that the old man is in much better spirits!?"
"Yes, yes, it's Shencheng..."
"Don't mention that. If the old man hears it, he will definitely scold you. You know the old man's temper. This time, the couple from the Tang family came to the old man's house and were sent back countless times. That Tang Zhen is really a piece of shit!"
"yes-"
Qi Zaozao was really about to faint. Someone was talking in her left ear and also in her right ear.
She really couldn't bear it anymore, so she took the opportunity when Shen Fei was holding Xuanxuan and Lele's hands to hide.
When I say hiding, I mean hiding in the room.
The first thing I did was to lie on the bed, look at the ceiling, and let out a long sigh.
She is from the Shen family—
The granddaughter of the Shen family
Qi Zao Zao rolled her eyes. Why did this still feel like a dream
Ahhh!
Qi Zaozao tossed and turned and scratched her hair. She thought that her future life would never be as peaceful as before. No, her life had never been peaceful!
Qi Zao Zao lay on the bed and buried his head in the pillow, but the next second, a body suddenly pressed down on him.
The heavy breathing sound suddenly startled Qi Zao Zao, and then she knew who it was. She could smell his scent, the scent that belonged to him.
"do what!?"
Pei Yifei nestled his head in the crook of her neck and said lazily, "I'm so tired—"
"I'm so tired, what does it have to do with me..."
"Didn't you ask me? I'm answering you!"
"… "
"Isn't it?"
"Go and rest if you're tired!"
"I'm just taking a rest now—"
Qi Zao Zao was speechless and wanted to push him away, but he held her tightly. His voice rang out again, and he whispered, "Don't move. Let me hold you back—"
After saying that, he hugged Qi Zaozao tightly.
Qi Zaozao originally wanted to push him away, but she didn't do anything. She was just a little dazed.
They changed positions and he lay beside her, eyes closed, breathing evenly.
Qi Zao Zao stared at him blankly, and didn't even know how he fell asleep...
I don’t know how long it had been, but when Qi woke up early, Pei Yifei was gone. She was covered with a quilt, and the space next to her was empty.
Qi Zao Zao looked around and didn't see him, but for some reason, she wanted to see him...
She got up and went outside. Many of the gossipy people had left. Qi hadn't seen him since then. When she went outside, she saw Pei Yifei standing in the garden at the back with a cigarette butt in his hand. He seemed to be thinking about something, his eyes slightly absent-minded.
Qi Zao was stunned, and just as Pei Yifei's gaze came over, their eyes met, and the corner of his mouth slightly raised.
Throw away the cigarette butt in your hand.
"woke up?"
"You—" Qi Zaozao paused, not knowing what to say.
"When do you plan to go back?"
"Tomorrow—"
She had met the people she was supposed to meet at the Shen family. It was about time for her to go back.
"Where to go?"
Pei Yifei said suddenly.
Qi Zao Zao suddenly didn’t know where to go back to. She…
Pei Yifei looked into the distance, but then he turned to look at Qi Zaozao with a smile on his face, "I will not let you go. Even though I said before, no matter where you go, I will not let go of your hand, whether it's heaven or hell, it's the same..."
Qi Zao Zao was stunned. She looked at the smile on Pei Yifei's delicate face...
What Qi Zaozao said to Shen Fei and the old man was to go back with Pei Yifei, but she was still struggling.
"After you go back, remember to come here often to see me and your grandfather, okay?"
Qi Zao Zao nodded and said yes, he would come here often in the future.
Under the reluctant gaze of Shen Fei and the old man, Qi Zao Zao took the child into Pei Yifei's car.
It was so lively these past few days, but now everyone has left. Qi Zaozao is still a little uncomfortable with it. What's even more uncomfortable is that when she goes back...
She glanced at Pei Yifei who was driving.
Pei Yifei said, "Xiao Bei has been living in the apartment all this time. I also had someone move your things back, but there aren't many..."
Qi Zao Zao was stunned for a few seconds before he reacted, "What did you say?"
"Xiaobei has been living in the apartment..."
"No, not this one!"
"I have had your things moved to the apartment..."
"Did I ask you to move?" Qi Zaozao suddenly raised her voice, startling the two children.
Pei Yifei just smiled and said nothing.
There was a hint of doting in his eyes, which made Qi Zao Zao extremely uncomfortable, so she turned her head away. (To be continued)
