Madam Qin immediately frowned in agreement.

She coughed twice, clutching her chest, looking frail and weak: "Yes, Nian'an, Grandma is really exhausted..."

Pei Nian'an pursed her lips and didn't say anything, but just shrank back behind Shen Minglan.

He had already used all his strength to push his father, so he had no strength left to push this "grandmother" who always bullied him.

Shen Minglan frowned, about to speak, but was stopped by Shen Qingtang's eyes.

Shen Qingtang looked at the father and son, a cold smile curling at the corner of her lips.

Is this the start of their antics?

Very well, it'll be a good opportunity to show her just how shameless the Pei family can be.

Pei Nian'an lowered her head even further, refusing softly but firmly: "I can't push it..."

"How can you be so unfilial!" Pei's father's face darkened immediately. "Your grandmother always dotes on your father the most, and now you won't even help your grandmother. Don't you have any respect for your elders?"

Madam Qin immediately cooperated, her eyes reddening and tears welling up.

Her voice choked with emotion: "Nian'an, Grandma knows you're tired, but Grandma just really..."

Before he could finish speaking, Madam Qin, who was standing to the side, also clutched her chest.

She leaned weakly against Uncle Pei's chest. Seeing this, Uncle Pei immediately chimed in, "Yes, Nian'an, your second grandmother is also exhausted and can barely hold on, so you..."

A group of people surrounded the child, putting pressure on him; their expressions were extremely unpleasant.

Grandma Pei, who was behind the crowd and was known for her love for Pei Wuwang, simply lowered her eyes at this moment.

A faint smile played on her lips, seemingly showing concern for the child.

His eyes, however, remained completely expressionless.

He didn't say a word from beginning to end, and his hypocritical act of kindness sent chills down one's spine.

“Grandma,” Shen Qingtang suddenly spoke, her voice clear and bright, “Aren’t you the one who dotes on Pei Wuwang the most? Why are you silent now, watching his child being forced to push a stroller?”

Her gaze swept over Madam Qin and Madam Qin, her tone barbed: "Or do you think it's only natural for his son to serve his two 'weak' aunts?"

Grandma Pei's eyelids twitched.

Just as she was about to speak, Shen Qingtang kicked the ground, and a dark brown cockroach was accurately kicked towards Da Qinshi.

"Ah—!" Qin Shi screamed, no longer caring about pretending to be weak, and shrank back behind Pei's father, her face as pale as paper.

His whole body was shaking like a leaf.

Madam Qin was also terrified and turned pale.

She took several steps back, and her previous delicate demeanor vanished completely.

It turns out that these two sisters, who are fearless in the face of anything, are terrified of cockroaches the most.

Looking at their panicked expressions, Shen Qingtang sneered, "Weren't you two just too tired to stand? Now you're running faster than anyone else. Looks like you're not so weak after all. There's no need to trouble a child to push the stroller."

These words were like a slap in the face to Pei's father and the Qin sisters.

Those around couldn't help but chuckle softly.

The look in their eyes held a hint of mockery.

Pei's father's face turned pale and then red, but he was so frightened by the cockroach that he didn't dare to press Pei Nian'an any further.

Although Pei Wuwang was lying on the cart with his eyes closed, he appeared to be in a daze.

However, he was unusually clear-headed.

Every word of the arguments, mockery, and crying around him entered his ears.

When he heard Shen Qingtang argue for Pei Nian'an and even use such a clever method to expose the Qin sisters' disguise.

His fingers, which were placed at his side, twitched almost imperceptibly.

My heart felt as if it had been gently struck by something, stirring up a complex ripple.

There was surprise, gratitude, and a touch of warmth that was hard to describe.

He never imagined that, in this situation, someone would so decisively protect his child.
