Confiscating the Family Fortune and Exiled, Father and Daughter Who Chose an Outside Concubine Regret Bitterly

In her previous life, Shen Qingtang poured her heart and soul into reviving the fallen Lu family with her wisdom and talent. She respected her in-laws, nurtured her young daughter, and even gave he...

Chapter 46 Just Like You When You Were Young (1/2)

The surroundings fell silent instantly.

The anger on the faces of Pei's father and grandmother froze.

Grandpa Su was also dumbfounded. No one expected that Pei Wuwang would actually react.

And judging from his appearance, it seems that he really will stand by her side after waking up, just as Shen Qingtang said.

Pei Nian'an excitedly came over, her little hands tightly gripping Pei Wuwang's clothes, and whispered, "Daddy! Wake up!"

Shen Qingtang looked at Pei Wuwang, and a genuine smile finally appeared in her eyes.

He's awake; everything will be much easier now. Pei Wuwang's eyelids twitched several times.

However, she still lacked the strength to fully open her eyes. Upon seeing this, Shen Qingtang immediately took out silver needles from her spatial storage.

She precisely inserted needles into several acupoints on his head and wrists. This was a special acupuncture technique she had learned, which could stimulate the meridians and awaken consciousness.

A moment later, she removed the silver needles and whispered, "Pei Wuwang, try to open your eyes."

Pei Wuwang took a deep breath and finally slowly opened his eyes. His blurry vision gradually cleared.

The first thing that catches the eye.

It was Shen Qingtang's face, so close to hers, her eyes filled with concern.

Her hair fell gently beside her cheeks, and the sunlight shone on her, as if she were coated with a soft glow.

Pei Wuwang's heart skipped a beat, and an unfamiliar thrill spread uncontrollably.

"Wu Wang! You're finally awake!"

Pei's father and second uncle rushed over immediately, their faces full of "excitement".

Grandma Pei rushed to the bedside, slapping her thigh and wailing, "My dear grandson, Grandma has been so worried about you these past few days, praying for you every day. Heaven has finally opened its eyes!"

But Pei Wuwang just looked at them coldly.

His voice was hoarse but clear: "No need to pretend. When I was unconscious, my consciousness wasn't completely gone. I could hear clearly who truly cared about me and who was just putting on an act."

He paused, then turned his gaze to Pei Nian'an, his eyes softening slightly. "These past few days, only Nian'an has been by my side, along with Miss Shen... taking care of me the whole time."

As he said this, his eyes were filled with obvious tenderness and gratitude as he looked at Shen Qingtang.

Everyone present could see it clearly.

Mr. Pei and Mrs. Pei froze instantly. Mrs. Pei still tried to argue, "Wu Wang, don't listen to others' attempts to sow discord! Grandma really prays for you every day and even wants to find herbs for you..."

"Praying for blessings? Looking for herbs?" Pei Wuwang sneered. "While I was unconscious, all you cared about was the chicken soup in Nian'an's hand, and you even made him give you his food. My father and second uncle didn't come near me at all, only thinking about how to blame Miss Chen. Is this what you call 'doing good for me'?"

When Pei's father was exposed, he roared in anger and embarrassment, "Pei Wuwang! How dare you speak to your elders like that! I am your father! This is unfilial!"

"filial piety?"

Shen Qingtang immediately chimed in, "They ignore their son's coma, they don't care about their grandson's injury, they only know how to snatch food and use moral blackmail. Why should anyone be filial to such elders?"

Qin Xian nodded in agreement: "Qing Tang is right! These people from the Pei family are not fit to be elders at all!"

Mr. and Mrs. Shen were all in complete agreement, but Old Master Shen was so angry that he stepped forward and slapped Mr. Pei across the face. The crisp sound silenced the entire room.

"You beast!" Old Master Shen pointed at Pei's father and cursed, "Your own son is unconscious, and you don't even care, yet you want to bully the person who saved your son! Do you deserve to be a father? Do you deserve to be a human being?"

Pei's father covered his face, feeling both angry and ashamed, but he couldn't utter a single word.

Old Mrs. Pei and Second Uncle Pei also lowered their heads, not daring to utter another word. Pei Wuwang woke up and revealed all their shameful secrets.

With the Shen family and Qin Xian's support, they had no reason to argue anymore.
