Meanwhile, in the living room...
Pei Nanxu turned to Cheng Mo. âHow is my brother doing?â
Cheng Mo clicked on a photo in his phone and reeled off, âEver since that incident, President Peiâs condition has been extremely unstable. The chairman has arranged for the medical experts from America to come over here. They are all ready for an emergency.
Earlier, the doctor came and brought a report with President Peiâs data. His body exceeded the normal pressure today a total of six times. However, there was a period when he was calm and stable. Hence, the doctor asked me what President Pei was doing at the time.
I checked, and the period when President Pei was stable was between the time of Miss Linâs competition and now.â
Pei Yutang clicked his tongue. âShe is indeed my daddy! Amazing! If Big Sister-In-Law were to stay with Big Brother 24 hours a day, wouldnât he recover without any medical treatment?â
Pei Nanxu furrowed his eyebrows. âBut Lin Yan is a person too. How can we restrict her freedom? Have you forgotten what happened previously?â
Pei Yutang nodded in response. âYeah, thatâs true. Although Big Sister-In-Law is super effective as a stabilizer, she is also a ticking time-bomb! It was really frightening when she blew up!â
Cheng Mo agreed and added, âIf President Pei and Miss Linâs relationship can be stabilized, it would be best. We canât rush things.â
Pei Yutang replied, âAs long as Big Sister-In-Law doesnât initiate a breakup, everything will be fine! I will just beg her if the need arises!â
...
Lin Yan stayed for dinner and then discussed her contract with Pei Nanxu and Pei Yucheng.
Pei Yuchengâs condition had been unstable recently, and he didnât like anyone near him. Pei Nanxu had moved back to the mansion to take care of him.
As for Pei Yutang, he had left home and couldnât come over so often. Therefore, he seized this chance to enjoy some homely comfort while Lin Yan was there.
Soon, the clock struck 11 p.m.
Pei Yucheng reminded her gently, âItâs getting late. Go home and rest while itâs early.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lin Yan hadnât noticed the time until Pei Yucheng reminded her.
âOh, okay! Then I shall head back home! Do rest early, Mr. Pei.â Lin Yan stood up.
Pei Yutang immediately sprang to his feet amid his game. âIâm going back too!â
Without Big Sister-In-Law around, he wouldnât dare linger here.
Pei Nanxu and Pei Yutang led Lin Yan to the door and instructed Pei Yutang to take Lin Yan back.
Pei Yutang blinked in puzzlement. Why didnât Big Brother take her back personally?
However, he didnât dare disobey his Big Brother, so he decided to clam up.
He really felt that Big Brother and Big Sister-In-Law didnât act like a couple...
Werenât they progressing too slowly?
âAlright! I will take Big Sister-In-Law safely back home!â
Pei Yutang muttered softly under his breath. âEven if Big Sister-In-Law were to loiter outside, the one who would be in danger wouldnât be her...â
Lin Yan bade Pei Yucheng and Pei Nanxu farewell before getting into Pei Yutangâs car.
Pei Yucheng didnât return to the house. Instead, he bent his head and lit a cigarette. He stood there and watched the car disappear slowly into the darkness.
âBeep...â
âBeep...â
âBeep...â
The silver watch on his wrist began to ring and the alarm gradually got faster and shriller.
