"I'm outside."
Pei Qiwei's voice lowered a little, as if she was thinking about something, and said, "You go back first, don't worry, he's fine."
After hearing what Pei Qiwei said, Qi Zao finally breathed a sigh of relief and hung up the phone. She looked at the sky outside and the rain was getting lighter.
She rushed into the rain, her whole body was soaked by the rain. She tried to stop taxis, but no taxi stopped. If a taxi showed any sign of stopping, a large number of people would come to scramble for it. Qi Zaozao was a pregnant woman, so she only dared to protect her belly and did not dare to compete with them. It took her twenty minutes just to stop taxis.
As night falls, the neon lights flicker under the rain, and the prosperity of the entire city seems like a painting in a dream, floating and distant in the rain.
Just when Qi gave up and wanted to go back to hide from the rain, a sports car suddenly stopped.
Ji Chengen had gone back a long time ago, but for some unknown reason he drove out again. When he drove over here, he saw Qi Zaozao hailing a taxi in the rain. Her little face was covered with rain, her hair was soaked, and her big eyes were pitch black. It was actually a little bit hard to bear to look at her like that.
Qi Zao Zao also saw Ji Chengen clearly, but she didn't know him. But she remembered that he was staring at her from behind in the coffee shop. Qi Zao Zao's eyes flashed with a trace of vigilance. Just when she opened her mouth, Ji Chengen's mouth curled up a little, "Why is the young lady of the Pei family so pitiful? She doesn't even have a special car? She hails a taxi in the rain? It's very embarrassing!"
Qi Zao Zao was stunned.
"Who are you?"
"If you have anything to say, get in the car first!"
Qi Zao Zao did not move, and Ji Chengen laughed again: "Mrs. Pei, are you afraid that I will eat you? Or do you want to wait in the rain like this forever? I think it will be difficult for you to stop a taxi in half an hour to an hour."
Ji Chengen was right. Qi Zao hesitated for a while, but still got into the car. She was afraid that she would catch a cold. Pregnant women don't have to take medicine if they catch a cold. Besides, in this weather, catching a cold is a very uncomfortable thing.
"Are we going back to Pei's house or Mr. Pei's apartment?"
Qi Zao Zao was stunned, "Apartment."
It seems that this person should be familiar with Pei Yifei.
But she didn't see him at the wedding.
Qi Zao Zao looked at him, and Ji Chengen just turned his head and looked at him. He smiled a little bit rogue, "Are you wondering why you haven't seen me before?"
Qi nodded early.
"During your wedding, I happened to be out of the country for something. By the way, my name is Ji Chengen."
"Oh, thank you."
The man in front of her smiled like a peach blossom, but he did have a face that attracted peach blossoms. Unlike Pei Yifei's delicate face, he was a man who looked very romantic and unrestrained at first glance.
Neither of them spoke much after that, and Qi Zaozao was just looking at her phone the whole time.
"Waiting for your husband's call?"
Qi Zao Zao didn't say anything.
She lowered her eyes slightly, her eyelashes looked like the wings of a butterfly spreading out for flight, her hair was still wet and resting on her cheeks. Ji Chengen took out a dry towel that he had prepared in the car and handed it to her.
Qi Zao Zao glanced at him and continued, "Thank you."
She didn't say much, just said thank you very politely.
Ji Chengen looked at her again. The first time he saw her was in the Xuanshi Bar. This little woman was not yet the young lady of the Pei family at that time. She looked weak and fragile, but there was a seriousness in her eyes. At that time, he even teased Yifei, saying that he still liked that type of woman.
However, he didn't expect that after he went abroad, he would hear the news that Pei Yifei was getting married. What surprised him even more was that the woman in the photo was the woman who helped Pei Yifei in the bar at that time.
It’s so fast!
Ji Chengen suddenly remembered something and said, "Did you know that a flight to Paris this morning encountered strong air currents and had to make an emergency landing?"
Qi raised his eyes early in response to his sudden topic. At that moment, the light in his eyes was like a treasure box being opened, full of spirit, pitch black, and as beautiful as a black pearl.
Ji Chengen was stunned, and then he heard Qi Zao Zao say, "Wasn't it reported on TV?"
There was no change in her expression. Ji Chengen was a little surprised. It seemed that she was still not clear about that matter!
Qi got off Ji Chengen's car early and went back to the apartment. There was no one in the apartment and Pei Yifei was not at home.
His hair was no longer dripping, but still wet. Qi Zao Zao took out his phone and sent a text message: Where are you? Is there something urgent
The other side.
The place where the plane made an emergency landing was not very far from City A, but it was not very close either. The flight that encountered the air current was already delayed and encountered air currents shortly after takeoff, so it made an emergency landing. However, due to the strength of the air currents, dozens of people were injured during the emergency landing.
In the hospital.
There were people walking around everywhere, and when Xu Yan received the news and rushed over, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.
“Ruohan, Ruohan?”
After finding the ward and opening the door, Xu Yan saw the person on the bed. It was Pei Ruohan, and the figure standing in front of the window was Pei Yifei!
Pei Yifei turned to look at Xu Yan, who hurried to the bedside and asked hastily, "What's wrong?"
Pei Yifei's face did not show much expression. "She was injured and is still in a coma. The doctor said it's nothing serious. I will send someone to take her back to City A when she gets better."
Xu Yan breathed a sigh of relief. "It's good that everything is okay. I was almost scared to death when I received the call. Yifei, thank you for coming in time!" She said, stroking her chest.
Pei Yifei didn't say anything about Xu Yan's words. His eyes moved to Pei Ruohan's face lying on the hospital bed. Her little face was a little pale, and her hair was a little messy and scattered on the pillow.
His pupils darkened and his brows were slightly twisted together.
Xu Yan's words rang in her ears, "I told her to go to France later. There have been frequent plane accidents recently, but she didn't listen. Now what! Hey, Changsheng just called me and he is trying to come back."
Pei Ruohan went to France to meet Lu Changsheng this time. She casually took her ID with her, but she didn't expect that the plane would have an accident.
It was Pei Yifei's back that answered Xu Yan. He left the ward and went directly to the hospital parking lot. He took out his mobile phone from the car, and the missed calls and text messages on it caught his sight.
They were all calls from Qi Zaozao.
Just as he was about to call back with his slender fingers, a phone call came in first, "Yifei, Ruohan has woken up and wants to see you. Have you gone back? Or are you near the hospital?" It was Xu Yan's voice.
Pei Yifei responded indifferently, hung up the phone, and walked towards the ward with big strides.
Entering the ward, Xu Yan was not there. Pei Ruohan raised her eyes and met Pei Yifei's, "Brother—"
"have a good rest."
He sat down on the chair beside the bed and spoke slowly.
"Brother, are you going back?" Pei Ruohan's face was still a little pale, and her originally cherry-red lips were bloodless. She looked at Pei Yifei with her watery eyes, and because of her injury, she seemed very weak.
Looking at her eyes, Pei Yifei suddenly remembered Qi Zaozao's face. He moved his lips, but Pei Ruohan grabbed his hand. Her palms were still sweating. She said, "Brother, can you stay with me? I'm scared."
There was a pleading tone in her voice, and her watery eyes seemed as if they were about to drip with water.
Pei Yifei looked at her face, but calmly withdrew his hand. Pei Ruohan noticed this, disappointment welled up in her eyes, and she lowered her eyes.
His voice suddenly sounded, "Have a good sleep, I'll leave when you've recovered a little."
Pei Ruohan suddenly looked up at him, joy welling up on her pale face. She grabbed the quilt with her hands, leaned down with her upper body, and said, "Brother, Mom said you were the first one to arrive, right?"
Pei Yifei leaned back in his chair, his hands crossed, his eyes without any flicker. His emotions were unreadable, but under Pei Ruohan's expectant gaze, he still nodded slightly.
Pei Ruohan had an indescribable feeling in her heart, and the wounds no longer hurt. He just nodded, but it was like igniting a fire in her heart that was slowly burning.
Xu Yan stood at the door, looking at the two of them through the half-open door. She saw the joy in her daughter's eyes and her soft yet expectant words, and could not help but let out a long sigh.
She had wronged Ruohan.
She was the one who had wronged Ruohan. If she hadn't used those words to lie to Pei Wenxuan at that time, perhaps Ruohan could now live the life she wanted.
Xu Yan did not go in.
After all, she was her own daughter. No matter how much she forced her to do things with Lu Changsheng on a normal day, she couldn't help but soften her heart at this moment.
When Pei Ruohan woke up in the middle of the night, she hurriedly looked for Pei Yifei and saw him at a glance. He was still there.
My brother is still here.
As long as her brother is still around, her heart will be very peaceful and stable.
With the faint light, she saw his face with his eyes closed. It was so delicate. It was that face that often lingered in her mind.
Her thoughts were complicated, but more of it was joy, yes, joy.
Her brother is already married, but judging from what happened last time and this time, he still has her in his heart. If it weren’t for those things that came in between, maybe she would be very happy with her brother.
She almost had a car accident, so she called her brother, and he came right away. I still remember how nervous he was. This time when the plane encountered turbulence, her brother was also the first to come. Brother, he... ...
Pei Ruohan's mouth corners slightly raised. How nice it would be if time could just stop like this.
——
When Qi Zao woke up early in the morning, the seat next to him was cold. Pei Yifei had not come back all night.
She sat up, a feeling of loss welling up on her face, a feeling of loss that she herself was not even aware of.
She wanted to get up, she felt weak all over and a little dizzy. As soon as she stepped on the ground and stood up, she felt a black screen in front of her eyes and sat on the bed. She touched her forehead and found it was a little hot.
My heart skipped a beat, probably because of the rain last night.
Although she didn't understand, she knew that pregnant women should not take medicines indiscriminately. For a moment, she felt helpless and at a loss, even a little sad. Maybe it was because she was pregnant that even her emotions became so sentimental.
At this moment, the cell phone rang suddenly.
Qi looked at the phone early. It was Pei Yifei calling. After answering the phone, she didn't say anything. His voice came from the other end of the phone.
So familiar.
"Are you awake?"
It was just three words, but I couldn't help but feel a lump in my throat when I heard that familiar voice.
"I'm not awake yet, why am I answering your call?" In fact, what she wanted to ask was, where did you go last night? Didn't you say you would pick me up
She didn't notice that her voice had changed, but Pei Yifei on the other end heard it and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Do you have a cold?"
When he said this, Qi Zaozao felt even more uncomfortable.
But she didn't say anything.
The atmosphere changed a little.
Pei Yifei on the other end sighed, rubbed his brows, and said, "I suddenly had something urgent yesterday and forgot my phone in the car."
Is this an explanation
"Then why didn't you call me back?"
"Isn't it time to go back now?"
When Qi Zaozao heard this, she became furious. There was a big difference between the phone call last night and the one this morning. God knows she fell asleep last night while waiting for his call!
Pei Yifei was about to say something when the person on the other end of the phone hung up!
Qi hung up the phone early and curled up in bed. Her chest still felt a little uncomfortable and her head felt a little heavy. She looked at herself for being pretentious and hung up his phone, but she still felt uncomfortable.
What's so urgent? You don't even return my phone call
Pei Yifei was a little stunned. Hearing the beeping sound, he realized that Qi had hung up the phone early.
He thought about it and called back, but a mechanical female voice came from the other end of the phone.
His handsome brows knitted together.
Did that little girl hang up on him
Pei Ruohan looked at the figure by the window with a dazed look in her eyes. She heard him say, "Go back and see how she is doing, and call me immediately! It will take me about three hours to get to City A."
I'm talking to Xiao Li on the phone.
I was just talking on the phone with Qi Zao Zao.
After hanging up the phone, Pei Yifei turned around and met Pei Ruohan, who was in a daze. She came back to her senses, and the smile on her face was a little far-fetched. She wanted to say something, but Pei Yifei spoke first: "You have a good rest. I will send someone to pick you up and take you back to the hospital in City A later."
"elder brother!"
She suddenly shouted, at a rather loud volume.
Pei Yifei's slightly raised brows became even more furrowed, "What's wrong?"
Pei Ruohan's heart, which had revived yesterday, seemed to be thrown into hell again. She stammered, "Is my brother leaving?"
"Um."
"Can't you stay with me longer?"
"Someone's here to keep you company."
"Brother, but I want you to accompany me."
"Stop messing around." His brows furrowed.
Pei Ruohan's heart sank, and her eyelashes trembled twice, "Brother, you can actually tell the truth to sister-in-law. Tell her that my plane crashed and you didn't go back because of me."
Pei Yifei's brows were tightly knitted, "Are you teaching me how to speak?"
Pei Ruohan felt upset, "I'm sorry, brother, I didn't mean that."
What does it mean
Even she doesn't know.
"You should have a good rest and call me if you have anything." He was still about to leave, and his tall and slender figure was about to leave her sight.
"Okay, I understand, brother..."
Pei Yifei still left.
Watching his leaving back, Pei Ruohan suddenly felt like she couldn't breathe. Her heart ached, the pain was worse than any other time, as if he had given her hope, and then despair.
Tears suddenly fell.
Xu Yan appeared at the door of the ward, and seeing Pei Ruohan crying, she couldn't help but said, "You are really a silly girl!"
"mom-"
Xu Yan walked up and hugged Pei Ruohan, "How can you be so serious?"
"Mom, I know I was wrong. I know, but I feel so bad. I really feel so bad. I'm sorry, Mom. Please let me cry for once."
Xu Yan sighed heavily.
Xiao Li knew the password to his boss's apartment. Actually, he didn't want to get in that way, but he rang the doorbell and no one opened the door, so he pressed the password and went in. He went to the bedroom and took a look. Unexpectedly, the young mistress was sleeping, and she was sleeping so soundly!
Xiao Li stepped forward to take a look and exclaimed, "Is he having a fever?!"
Oh my god, a pregnant woman having a fever is no small matter!
He quickly called, and Pei Yifei was already in the car.
Xiao Li was waiting. He called a private doctor as the young master said. He sat in the living room and looked towards the bedroom from time to time. He couldn't help but sighed. Today is the weekend. I should have a good rest at home on the weekend, right
But the point is not here. The point is that Young Master Pei in their family abandoned his young mistress and ran to take care of his sister-in-law.
Poor young mistress of their family.
The young mistress doesn't know yet. Sometimes even Xiao Li can't understand what the young master is thinking. Although the two of them said they were getting married by agreement, it didn't seem like a marriage by agreement at all. They get along like newlyweds on a daily basis. In fact, Xiao Li himself is happy too, because our Young Master Pei has been smiling more often.
It's a dilemma, because there's also a sister-in-law involved, who causes trouble from time to time, and the young mistress doesn't know what's going on. Everyone in the Pei family knows about it, but they keep it to themselves. Even he keeps it to himself. No matter how he looks at it, he feels that their young mistress is pitiful.
Xiao Li believes that although he has not had much contact with the young lady, he can feel that she is a good girl, and a hard-working girl is always good.
The private doctor came, but unfortunately, he couldn't prescribe any medicine. Xiao Li was terrified when he heard that. If the young lady still had a high fever at night, it might affect the child, causing deformity or even stillbirth.
Qi Zao Zao felt dizzy and confused. She also saw Xiao Li's anxious face and a strange man in a white coat. Was he a doctor
Where is Pei Yifei
Qi Zao Zao stretched out his hand and tried to stand up, but his whole body was limp.
Before I knew it I fell asleep again.
Until he felt someone holding his hand. At that moment, his heartbeat quickened. Qi opened his eyes early and saw Pei Yifei's delicate face. There was a hint of nervousness in his eyes.
Yes, it is nervous. (To be continued)
