Chapter 57: The Fifty-Seventh Day of Reservedness I would rather be the one to support her...

The hospital's surveillance system did not have complete coverage, and it was only after Pei Yunhe found out through coordination that Shan Zewu took advantage of the gap when two nurses were washing dishes and changing shifts to enter Su Daosheng's ward.

At that time, Su Daosheng was still conscious, but he could not speak clearly. He could not shout or chase him away, and he was unwilling to show weakness in front of Shan Zewu.

Under such circumstances, Shan Zewu could make Su Dao so angry that his condition worsened with just a few words. It goes without saying that it must be the matter of Shan Yin that provoked him.

The old man's biggest concern in this world is Dan Yin. Everything the grandfather and grandson do is to protect each other, so it's no wonder he is so angry.

"No matter what he said, this matter can't be let go."

Pei Yunhe sat on a stainless steel bench outside the ward, his long legs bent, veins on the back of his hands slightly protruding, and the sharp lines of his jaw as cold as the cold-rolled steel seat.

He said to He Yuxian, "I'll have someone follow up. You're more familiar with legal matters than I am, so I'd appreciate your assistance."

He Yuxian sat at the other end of the bench and nodded, "Old Master is my benefactor and my employer. I will do my best even without your instructions."

"That's good." Pei Yunhe responded.

He looked up again, his eyes passing through the door of the ward and falling on the door of the inner bedroom.

The sound of Dan Yin's sobbing inside gradually faded and could no longer be heard, but he was still very worried.

"It's better not to tell Shan Yin about this for now. Although Shan Zewu is despicable, he is still nominally related to Shan Yin. If she gets anxious and wants to deal with Shan Zewu, she will inevitably be criticized and put in a dilemma. It's better for us to handle this matter."

Upon hearing this, He Yuxian followed Pei Yunhe's gaze and looked inside. After a few seconds, he retracted his gaze and fixed it on Pei Yunhe's face.

He had hardly any rest last night, and no matter how energetic and courageous he was, there was still a hint of fatigue around his eyes.

A bluish-gray color showed under the eyes, the folds of the double eyelids and the fine lines at the end of the eyes became deeper, and even a few red bloodshot lines appeared near the pupils.

However, He Yuxian still saw full of tenderness and attachment in his eyes, as well as care and concern for Shan Yin.

He Yuxian breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Nan Qiao's rumors are true. The Pei family's young couple is loving and harmonious, which is a model of love and harmony.

Since Pei Yunhe had plans to deal with Shan Zewu, he, as an outsider, couldn't say much.

"I didn't expect you to come back with Shan Yin."

He Yuxian suddenly said this, and Pei Yunhe suddenly looked over.

He Yuxian laughed and said, "Your relationship is better than I thought."

He told Pei Yunhe the hottest topic of the past few days in Nanqiao's upper class circles. "It spread very quickly. Several of the Yunsu families also heard about it. It's a pity that before I could tell the old man how well you treated Shan Yin, Shan Zewu ruined it first."

Having said this, Pei Yunhe's stern face softened a little.

He was not modest and said bluntly: "It's not just what you imagined or what the rumors said. I will treat Shan Yin better."

If this had been said in the past, He Yuxian would never have believed it. However, after going through so much, when he looked at the man beside him who was not humble at all and was even confident and sure of himself, he no longer had any doubts.

He really felt some sense of responsibility as an uncle, and opened his heart to talk about Dan Yin with Pei Yunhe.

"Shan Yin's family situation is complicated, as you can see. She has carried too much pressure and pain since she was a child. She is always depressed and often keeps many things to herself. It is not easy for her to grow up like this."

"I know." Pei Yunhe answered quickly.

He Yuxian looked at him and said, "I know you know."

He did not doubt Pei Yunhe's understanding of Shan Yin, but he wanted to say something else.

He just saw Pei Yunhe and Shan Yin get out of the car in front of the hospital and walk towards him.

Shan Yin was still frail, and the dark green dress made her look like a weak and helpless blade of grass growing in a corner, as if a gentle breeze could knock her down.

But Pei Yunhe walked beside her, holding her and supporting her with his arms, taking care of her meticulously, his eyes fixed on her.

Just like the high blue brick wall next to the small grass swaying in the wild, it is solid and powerful, standing firmly behind her, able to protect her from wind and rain, and create a territory that no one can invade.

"But Shan Yin has too many troubles around him. Besides Shan Zewu's family, many senior executives of the Shan family have been eyeing him covetously for a long time, and there are also countless gossips."

It is also like the thorns surrounding the weeds, growing wildly and growing into ugly and terrifying shapes. When the wind and rain come, the shadows derived from them can crush people.

"She's inherently strong. It's useless to let her become a dodder growing in a crack, unless you eliminate all the threats around her."

Remove all the thorns one by one to let the sunlight outside come in.

"But then, she would become a complete dodder that only knows how to cling to other things. When she has nothing around her, she would fall even faster."

"No."

Pei Yunhe, who had been listening carefully to He Yuxian's words, suddenly spoke.

He loosened his fists against his lips and straightened his back, just like he always did when he walked with his head held high beside Shan Yin.

"I will not let her be left with nothing again, and I will not let her become a dodder that only knows how to cling."

He turned to look at He Yuxian, "I know Shan Yin better than you think."

Ever since he discovered Shan Yin secretly crying in the garden behind the school, he knew that Shan Yin was strong-willed and would never want to be a clinging dodder.

After that, she grew up to be graceful and elegant. Even though the Su family had more vested interests in the marriage, she did her best to treat and repay the Pei family. She did not feel inferior to others. Her forbearance was nothing but her kindness and gentleness.

Even after understanding his support, Shan Yin continued to train herself, learn, and work hard, hoping to take over the burden that others carried for her as soon as possible.

She also wants to become stronger and is becoming stronger.

Pei Yunhe saw all of this.

"She was never some clinging dodder."

Pei Yunhe raised his eyes and turned to stare at He Yuxian.

"you……"

It seemed like it was rare for Pei Yunhe to look so serious. He Yuxian was speechless for a moment and couldn't respond for a while.

"Dan Yin is also harder-working and stronger than you think."

Having said this, his eyes inevitably softened again, but his tone became more firm.

"Although I don't want her to face those ups and downs, it doesn't mean she doesn't have the ability to face them. She works very hard and is constantly improving. I also believe that when she has to face them one day, those ups and downs won't destroy her, but will instead become the nourishment that feeds her growth."

He suddenly stood up and looked back into the ward.

"Don't worry. I won't just protect her from the wind and rain. If possible, I'd like to be the high wall that supports her and helps her climb up."

The world outside is vast and bright, and it is worth it for Shan Yin to stand on a high place and take in the whole view.

Having said this, He Yuxian no longer had anything to worry about.

Every idea and action of Pei Yunhe was one step ahead of He Yuxian's worries. With his precautions, He Yuxian, whether as the Su family's lawyer or as Shan Yin's elder brother with a different surname, was confident that Shan Yin and the Su family were with Pei Yunhe.

"Okay then." He stood up as well. It was getting late, and the doctors in the hospital were gradually returning to their respective posts. "There are still some formalities to go through, so I won't be here with you."

He packed up the documents and materials at hand and explained some follow-up matters: "I'll contact them regarding the consultation. Just let me know if there's anything I can do regarding Shan Zewu. As for the rest, take good care of Shan Yin. She..."

"What do you mean we can't enter? Is this your hospital? You say we can't enter, so we can't enter? The road is so wide, how can I not walk through it?"

Before He Yuxian could finish his words, a noise came from the other end of the corridor.

The man came in a very aggressive manner, his leather shoes stomping loudly on the tile floor, and he kept arguing with the medical staff.

Pei Yunhe and He Yuxian looked over and saw a large group of figures quickly appearing at the corner at the end of the corridor. Several people with fierce faces and noses in the sky were walking in front. Medical staff on both sides were chasing and trying to stop them, but were swept behind by them.

The leader was wearing a black silk embroidered shirt with the hem half-tucked into his trousers, and the collar was even open to the fourth button.

Although he was young, he acted like a slick gangster, yelling, "I'm so annoying! Get out of here! Or I'll have you all fired!"

They were obviously coming for Su Daosheng's ward. Pei Yunhe stood upright. He Yuxian saw who was coming and was about to speak to Pei Yunhe.

But the noise in the corridor had already alarmed Dan Yin in the ward.

She pushed open the bedroom door and walked out, her eyelashes still stained with tears that she had not had time to wipe away, and she looked out as she walked.

"What's wrong?"

Pei Yunhe went over to help her, "Nothing, why did you come out? Just stay inside with grandpa."

Shan Yin shook his head, but before he could say anything, the group of people arrived in front of them in the blink of an eye.

"Hey, isn't this my good sister? What's the matter? Nanqiao is a pleasant place, and you've been hiding away comfortably. Now you finally remembered that Yunsu has an old immortal?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Pei Yunhe frowned instantly. His first reaction was to cover Shan Yin's ears, but it was too late.

Shan Yin had just cried, and there were still redness and tear marks around her eyes. She forced herself to control her emotions as she came out.

When the fox heard the visitor speak like this, the sadness in his heart immediately turned into anger. Red bloodshot filled his eyes, his jaw twitched a few times, and his body leaned forward, looking angrier than ever before.

"Dan Feiyu, please speak with more respect!"

He Yuxian shouted, the man who came was none other than Shan Zewu's son, a notoriously uneducated second-generation rich man in Yunsu.

Shan Feiyu never took Su Daosheng and Shan Yin seriously, let alone He Yuxian.

He looked He Yuxian up and down and sneered, "I thought it was someone else, but it turns out to be that dog raised by the Su family. Get out of here! How dare you talk to me!"

"Shan Feiyu!"

Shan Yin couldn't stand it any longer and denounced him bitterly.

"This is not the place for you to act like a spoiled child. Please leave immediately!"

No one expected that the usually gentle Shan Yin would suddenly explode. Her voice was already a little hoarse from crying, and she suddenly yelled angrily with a bit of hysteria.

But Su Daosheng was not awake yet, and she really had no intention of arguing with Shan Feiyu.

His cousin was a typical playboy. Not only had he been hunting deer since he was a child, but he even dared to do evil things in Yunsu by relying on the name of the Shan family. He had been protected by Shan Zewu all these years.

What words can't come out of his mouth? Arguing with him is a waste of time and makes people feel filthy.

Shan Yin didn't want to say another word to him, so he turned around and went back to the ward.

Shan Feiyu knew that Shan Yin would be like this. He would hide since he was a child and would hide wherever he went.

He sneered and shouted, "Shan Yin, come on, I came all the way here to find you. Are you leaving without even saying a word to your brother? Are you just hiding?"

Shan Yin knew that he was provoking him, so he clenched his fists and did not turn around.

"I have nothing to say to you."

"Then don't worry, brother, I am here to advise you sincerely."

Shan Feiyu took two steps forward, his hands on his hips in a nonchalant manner.

"I'm telling you the truth. The guy in there won't be alive for many days. I advise you to transfer all your shares and property to my father as soon as possible. If you behave yourself, my family might consider taking you in and treating you with dignity. But if you don't accept my offer, you'll have to pay me back. How do you think you can survive in Yunsu as a girl?"

Shan Feiyu mocked him without hesitation: "You have been raised by Su Daosheng for more than ten years. You don't know anything. You can't support the Su and Shan families' family business at all. Sooner or later, it will be ruined. I advise you to be sensible..."

"Why can't I hold on? I will hold on even if I try. I can learn even if it takes a long time. I will learn no matter how long it takes! But I will never give it to you to squander!"

Shan Yin suddenly turned around and retorted with gritted teeth.

"You're so ignorant and unskillful, and you're the only one who could squander the family fortune!"

"you!"

Shan Feiyu's face suddenly became ferocious.

He looked ferocious as if he was going to hit someone, and he leaned forward half an inch. The shameless hippies behind him also rolled up their sleeves and rushed forward two steps.

Pei Yunhe and He Yuxian immediately stood in front of Shan Yin vigilantly.

Shan Feiyu suddenly smiled, his eyebrows twisted into a strange shape.

"Oh, Shan Yin, ah Shan Yin, you really are just like your name, good at doing all kinds of lewd, despicable things. You're already married, and not only have you won over your brainless husband so well, but you've also won over so many people in Yunsu to stand up for you! I say - Ah!"

Before Shan Feiyu could finish his words, a figure swooped over and knocked Shan Feiyu to the ground.
