Some... severe
At that time G city.
In Pei's residence, in the Wu Tong Garden, at 2 am, the lights were turned on again in the second floor master bedroom.
Xin couldn't sleep, got up to find a book to read. In today's era of abundant electronic products, it's rare for a young person to not touch their phone or go online for several days, probably only those who are sitting the month after childbirth would do such a thing.
No, she's better than those who are sitting in confinement after childbirth. She can watch TV all day long, read books all day long.
She no longer wants to read those celebrity biographies.
Turn on the TV and find a channel.
At 2 am, most channels were rebroadcasting, she replayed and watched some news from D city.
He was dressed casually, with his shirt sleeves rolled up and a safety helmet on, against the dark and gloomy background, the gray sky, even the safety helmet didn't look new, and there were still colors on his face, but standing next to the provincial party secretary, he stood out so strikingly, with an air of elegance.
Forget it, I won't look at him anymore. What's good-looking about this man? Han Qiyang is much more handsome than him.
After changing channels, it stopped at a boring TV show.
Talking about constellations.
Just as she was talking about Scorpio, she suddenly stopped.
She is a Scorpio girl, Tian Xuan is a typical Scorpio girl, a poisonous Scorpio girl, always holding a pair of scissors and waving them around. She listened to the two hosts on TV talking nonsense, first praising Scorpios, then criticizing them severely.
She's so infatuated that she just wants to be foolish, is this the legendary "first give a date, then give a slap"?
Scorpio is most compatible with Cancer, and least compatible with Taurus.
Pfft!
I don't have much research on constellations, and my greatest understanding is only knowing which constellation I belong to by calculating my birth date.
She "pffft" not because she didn't understand and pretended to watch this kind of boring show, but because Han Qiyang is a Cancer in July, she is a Scorpio in November, but Pei Jincheng is a Taurus in May.
Pei Jin Cheng had a big fight with him on his birthday night, almost to the point of physically harming each other.
She "poofed" because heaven played a big joke on her.
If she had seen this program earlier, then three and a half years ago in that nightclub, she must have run over to ask him what his zodiac sign was, and then kept her distance from him...
Thinking of his repeated confrontations with him, the repeated landslides and cracks in the mountains, I just thought of one sentence: fate is really a damn bastard!
Nor did she know if it was after watching this show that the impulse of smashing everything rose from the bottom of her heart, anyway, with the TV on, she fell asleep.
Until being woken up by Xiao Ying early in the morning.
"Miss! Miss!" Xiao Ying pushed Shen Xuan's shoulder.
Xuan couldn't help but turn over, and Xiao Ying's voice was a bit louder, "Young Madam! The old master is coming!"
Xun suddenly sat up with a start, her hair disheveled and her lips dry, but she pursed them even smaller, "Where's Grandpa?"
"Hurry up and put on your clothes!" Xiao Ying had already placed her clothes beside Shen Xuan's pillow, urging her.
Xin Yu hadn't slept yet, and her grandfather came to rescue her, she was so happy that she couldn't even react.
But this thought was immediately overwhelmed by another idea, Grandfather is a person who attaches great importance to status and demeanor, Pei Jin Cheng is not at home, the master bedroom has only her sleeping alone, it's impossible for Grandfather to run out of her bedroom to wait for someone.
Unless!
Something big has happened!
Afraid of being misunderstood by others, I must come in person!
Put on clothes, jump out of bed, rush into the bathroom, wash face, brush teeth, hair is casually combed and tied up.
When appearing in front of the old man, although there was no very delicate makeup, it was still neat.
Pei Li stood in the hall, Shen Xuan slightly bowed and said, "Grandfather, good morning."
"Ah Xun, hurry up and pack your things to go to D city. Your mom and dad went abroad yesterday, I was originally going to go too, but your second uncle is rushing over here, I need to deal with him first, then I'll be right there." Pei Li saw Shen Xun's confused face and added, "Jin Cheng was injured, it's... quite serious."
At the time, Shi Chen's hands were not available. When Pei Li heard this news, he had already decided to set off immediately to D City, but just as things were packed up, Second Brother Pei Zong called on the phone, saying that he was coming to the Pei residence.
He didn't want to reveal the fact that his grandson had an accident. Pei Jin Cheng was going to be the future head of the family, and if something happened to him, the whole Pei family would be affected. So three and a half years ago when Pei Jin Cheng became a vegetable, he managed to keep this news under wraps, even the wedding was only attended by close relatives.
Exchange greetings one by one, and don't leak it out.
Although others have grown old, their hearts remain clear and bright.
It's different now than it was three and a half years ago.
Before, it was possible to replace Pei Jin Cheng if he couldn't wake up again, but now that he's awake, some of the original balance has been disrupted, causing unrest. If news of his injury were to get out at this time, it would only make the family foundation even more unstable.
So even though there is only Bae Jin-seo and one plane at home now, he didn't say a word about using it, just letting Ah-saeng go book the flight ticket, wanting to leave quietly.
Who knew Pei Zong would come over with a mysterious and suspicious look on his face?
He doesn't care much about what's going on at Wutongyuan as long as the young couple don't fight. Some quarrels and troubles, he won't intervene, so when Shen Xuan didn't go to the restaurant for a few days and didn't go to work, he didn't care, thinking she was just taking a holiday.
At this time, there was no other way, couldn't let others see anything unusual, could only ask Shen Xuan to go first.
"Xun asked 'How's the injury?' but didn't wait for an answer, and directly turned to enter the bedroom. Pei Li didn't follow into the bedroom, but raised his voice a bit, 'Ah Xun, the weather over there is not as warm as in the south, it gets cool early and late, you'd better bring some thicker clothes.'"
"Oh." Shen Xuan's response came out, and then there was no more conversation.
"A Xuan, there are no planes at home now, I'll ask A Sheng to book a flight for you immediately."
"Okay." Xuan's voice still came from the bedroom, with the sound of rustling clothes, sliding closet doors, and hangers being thrown to the ground...
The waiting time at the airport is torturous. Even if you have a first-class ticket, you still take off and land with economy class passengers, just boarding and disembarking first.
The earliest flight is also at 10:01.
Pei Jin Cheng's phone call didn't get through. Pei Li gave the provincial party secretary's secretary's phone number, she dialed it once, asked for the hospital address and room number then hung up.
She didn't dare ask more questions and didn't dare ask how he was injured.
People working in coal mines mostly rely on physical labor for a living and generally have low levels of education.
This time there were such heavy casualties, some people couldn't control their emotions and violent incidents occurred. This was a problem she had thought about when he left.
At that time, she deceived herself by saying that Pei Jin Cheng, the son of a bitch, was feared even by the King of Heaven, so how dare he do anything to him?
When her grandfather was in the room, she clearly saw the red blood vessels in the old man's eyes, and his lower eyelids were slightly swollen.
She had always known that her grandfather was a strong man. Once she heard some rumors, saying he had personally beaten his own daughter to death, ruthless and decisive!
Such a person, without analyzing what happened at that time, can lay hands on his own flesh and blood, how could he possibly have red eyes lightly?
"Some...are severe."
Grandpa has always been like this, he likes to describe things in a calm and composed way, as if he has experienced all the ups and downs of life and nothing is a big deal. But when it comes to serious matters, he adds "some" at the beginning, which is just his guilty conscience and unease.
Seeing her grandfather so nervous and uneasy, how can she be so calm?
He called her that night, and at the time she didn't know where he was going, only to hate his overbearing and tyrannical behavior. He disregarded her feelings and forcibly took her back to G City, and on his own initiative went to Hai City to pick up her luggage.
He does things solely for his own comfort, regardless of how extreme his methods may be to others.
She was fed up with his phone calls.
Every word she says is so aggressive and so ruthless.
He said: "You're so cruel to me, are you sure that if I die outside one day, you won't shed a single tear?"
Heart and mouth ache together.
Even the person who understands his injury best now only says a few words, she doesn't dare to say another word. She dares not ask, dares not think, once thinking deeply, it feels like someone is scraping her heart with a knife, so painful that she trembles all over.
It hurts so much I'm almost in tears.
Sitting in the first-class lounge waiting for the plane, she felt very depressed, covering her face with both hands, taking deep breaths and rubbing hard. Xiao Ying looked at her with a pang of heartache and patted Shen Xuan's back, "Young lady, don't worry, young master is blessed with good fortune and will be fine."
Xuan lowered her head, waved her hand and slightly pulled the corner of her mouth. "I know he's fine, don't worry about me, I'm fine."
Xiao Ying saw Shen Xuan like this, and could only let out a low sigh.
Xun was waiting for his plane when another private jet had already arrived at D City Airport and parked safely.
Bai Shan got off the plane accompanied by her maid, Ah Yue.
She was slender, her shoulders shaking, her eyes were red, and she would occasionally rub her nose, unable to hold back tears as she wiped them away with a tissue. Ah Yue kept handing her tissues, "Miss, miss, don't cry, we'll be there soon."
Bai Shan nodded, her voice trembling with sorrow, only able to muster a faint "uh-huh" in response.
They hailed a taxi and Ah Yue told the driver, "Ren Xin Hospital."
The driver said "okay" and pressed down on the meter, then Bai Xue's phone rang. She answered it with a still-stuffy nose, her voice soft and gentle. "I've arrived, I'll be at the hospital soon. Yes, I know, but don't I need to know about Jin Cheng's injuries? It doesn't matter if Shen Xuan comes or not, as long as Jin Cheng is fine, right? What?"
There's another thing, I think it was at night, I've tried my best to update, I have family to accompany, children to take care of, relatives to visit, just like everyone else's holiday, busy.
