This was the first time Han Qianye, who had gone to Country T to visit Madam Di Xin, had gone to Madam Di Xinâs house today. The first two times she had gone, she had been to the hospital.
However, because Madam Di Xinâs health was not good and she needed to rest, Han Qianye did not stay for long the first two times, so she did not have the chance to ask much else.
Until today.
Han Qianye received a call from Madam Di Xin and learned that she had already been discharged from the hospital in the afternoon. She kindly invited them to her residence as guests. Han Qianye dressed up a little in the hotel she was staying at and rushed over with Pei Qingji.
In the car on the way to Sharasin House. Han Qianye gritted her teeth and said, âWhen I go to see Madam Di Xin this time, I have to ask about Yaoyaoâs background no matter what.â
It had been delayed for two days. If she delayed any longer, she didnât know how long she would have to wait after she returned to the country.
Pei Qingji took off the scarf on his arm and carefully placed it on Han Qianyeâs shoulder. He asked obsequiously, âWhat if you canât get the answer then?â
Han Qianye pursed her lips and rolled her eyes at Pei Qingji. âWhy are you pouring cold water on me for no reason?
Pei Qingji said, âIâm just afraid that youâll be disappointed again, so Iâm giving you a heads-up.â
âBah, bah, bah. Youâre the one whoâs disappointed. Donât talk to me now. Shut your mouth.â Han Qianye glanced to the side.
Pei Qingji pursed his lips and gestured silently. Han Qianye pretended not to see it. Pei Qingji continued to gesture. The more he gestured, the more anxious he became. He almost spoke, but he did not. He still kept his mouth shut.
Han Qianye almost laughed out loud. She suppressed the corners of her lips and looked up at him sideways. âIâll allow you to say something.â
Pei Qingji seized the opportunity. âI was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong.â He hurriedly said three times.
The corners of Han Qianyeâs mouth were about to reach the back of her head. She suddenly thought of something and said, âIf we know the outcome tonight, weâll return to the country tonight.â
âAlright.â Pei Qingji took out his phone. âIâll book a plane ticket.â
Han Qianyeâs mood instantly improved again. With a husband who admitted his mistake so quickly, it was difficult to stay angry for a while longer. The two of them did not make any advance preparations for this trip. It was Han Qianyeâs last-minute decision. The plane tickets, luggage, and hotel were all on Pei Qingji.
Pei Qingji, who had dominated the pugilistic world for the first half of his life, would only serve his wife for the rest of his life. He was still willing to work hard.
Han Qianye was in a good mood for a while, but she quickly became a little depressed. âThe timing did not match. We just arrived in Country and found out that Yaoyao had been sent to the capital. Weâre really unlucky.â
Pei Qingji said, âIf Yaoyao isnât around, itâs the same if you ask Madam Di Xin.â
Han Qianye turned around. âBased on Yaoyaoâs personality, heâs really a little antisocial. Madam Di Xin sent Yaoyao to the capital just like that. If Yaoyao stays in an unfamiliar place, it might be very difficult to adapt in a short period of time.â
Pei Qingji continued, âSome time ago, Madam Di Xin brought Yaoyao to the capital. Didnât she stay at her daughterâs place for two days? He went to a place once. It should be easier for Yaoyao to adapt.â
Han Qianye shook her head. âOther children might be able to adapt, but Yaoyao might not. Heâs so antisocial. My heart aches just thinking about him staying there alone.â
Pei Qingji comforted her. âWeâll go back tonight. Tomorrow, weâll pick up Yaoyao.â
âYeah.â
Han Qianyeâs mind was filled with Yaoyaoâs pitiful look.
The more she thought about it, the more her heart ached.
Country T did not have four seasons, but there were three seasons: hot season, rainy season, and cold season. This time, it was the cold season, but it was not cold at all. The temperature was very comfortable.
The car arrived at Madam Di Xinâs residence. After Han Qianye got out of the car, she held Pei Qingjiâs arm and entered under the servantâs lead.
âYouâre here.â Madam Di Xin personally went to the door to welcome them. From the smile on her face, it was obvious that she had recovered well.
Han Qianye quickly let go of Pei Qingjiâs arm and took three steps forward to greet her. âAre you feeling better?â
Madam Di Xin held Han Qianyeâs hand. âJust look at my complexion.â
âIt looks much better,â Han Qianye said.
Madam Di Xin nodded, then pulled Han Qianye in. After taking two steps, she stopped and turned to look at Pei Qingji, who had almost been ignored. âSince youâre here, youâre one of us. Be casual and donât be restrained.â
Pei Qingji nodded. âYes.â
Han Qianye followed Madam Di Xin in. It seemed that Madam Di Xin was holding her wrist, but in fact, Han Qianye was supporting her slightly. Although Madam Di Xin looked much better, she was still old and had just left the hospital after being sick. She had to be careful.
Madam Di Xin had probably stayed in the hospital for too long. There was no one around to relieve her boredom, so she chatted with Han Qianye a lot.
As they chatted, Han Qianye changed the topic to Yaoyao. She suddenly asked, âYaoyao has been sent to the capital. Are you planning to go to the capital to pick him up personally after some time?
Madam Di Xin smiled and said, âI probably wonât pick him up.â
Han Qianye looked up at Madam Di Xin. It was as if Madam Di Xin knew what she was thinking.
Madam Di Xin knew why she had come to Country T this time. Before this,
Han Qianye had said to Madam Di Xin that she was here to travel with Pei Qingji. But as expected, Madam Di Xin only believed it on the surface, she did not believe it in her heart.
In that case, Han Qianye did not intend to beat around the bush. She said directly, âTo be honest, I already know that Yaoyao is my biological grandson.â
Madam Di Xin was not surprised. She only asked Han Qianye, âWhen did you know?â
Han Qianye adjusted her sitting posture slightly and treated this topic seriously. âI was very surprised the first time I saw Yaoyao because his eyes were too similar to Jingzhou when he was young. If he was unrelated, how could he be so similar?
âHowever, I also know a principle. Children are still young. Their facial features havenât fully developed. Itâs not surprising who they look like.
Although Iâm usually careless and donât pay much attention to many things, Yaoyaoâs appearance surprised me.
âThe idea of doing a paternity test came to me then. Just to reassure myself. But in order to reassure myself, the result made me even more uneasy. When the paternity test results came out and I found out that Yaoyao was Jingzhouâs biological son, I was more anxious than anyone else. At that time, I thought, if this was an illegitimate son who had been wandering outside, how would I explain it to Li Xiwu?â At this point, Han Qianye sighed helplessly.
Pei Qingji reached over and gently placed his hand on the back of Han Qianyeâs hand. He held her hand to make her feel better.
Madam Di Xin took the black tea in front of her and took a sip. After putting it down, she asked, âWhat happened next?â
Han Qianye said, âAfter that, Iâve been hiding this matter. Before I figured out who Yaoyao was born with Jingzhou, only my husband and I knew.â
Madam Di Xin smiled and asked, âQianye, since you can tell that Yaoyao looks like Jingzhou when he was young and immediately went for a paternity test, why donât you be bolder and think that Yaoyao is the child of Jingzhou and Little You?â
