In this way, it does look like a child of this age.

Pei Fengzhi asked the steward as he walked inside.

Where is the old man?

The butler must have received orders from Old Master Pei to wait for Pei Fengzhi here, and immediately spoke to Pei Fengzhi.

"The old master is already waiting for you in the tea room, and the first madam is also there, but..."

The butler glanced hesitantly at Ye Jingyu, who was walking between Pei Fengzhi and Ye Ningwan.

Pei Fengzhi stopped and let go of Ye Jingyu's hand.

"Take the young master downstairs to play, and have the nanny change his clothes and give him a bath. He spent most of the day at the hospital and needs to be disinfected. Then make him some snacks, but don't give him juice; give him milk instead."

Pei Fengzhi patted Ye Jingyu's little head.

"He's too short; he needs to take more calcium supplements."

He's only six years old and he's already this short. What if he doesn't grow tall in the future?

If a boy doesn't grow tall, he won't be able to get a wife in the future.

Ye Jingyu seemed to detect a hint of disdain in Pei Fengzhi's eyes.

He raised his head, glared defiantly at Pei Fengzhi, raised his foot and kicked Pei Fengzhi in the shin, then silently shook off Ye Ningwan's hand and ran away.

I hate you!

Ye Ningwan subconsciously turned around and reached out to grab Ye Jingyu.

"Yu..." Her voice trailed off at the crucial moment, "Little Star, you can't..."

But Ye Jingyu was small and fast, and in no time he darted far away, and Ye Ningwan really couldn't catch the child.

Just as Ye Ningwan was about to chase after him, Pei Fengzhi grabbed her waist and pulled her back to his side.

Pei Fengzhi looked in the direction where Ye Jingyu had disappeared and gave the butler a wink.

The butler immediately spoke.

"I have already notified the nanny to go after him. Don't worry, Madam Jiu, the house is very safe. Young Master Xing will definitely be fine."

Ye Ningwan breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and glared at Pei Fengzhi, giving him a few words of scolding.

"How could you say such a thing in front of Little Star? Children have self-esteem too. He's most bothered by people saying he's short. No wonder he's angry!"

The housekeeper was surprised to hear Ye Ningwan say that.

How dare Ye Ningwan speak to Pei Fengzhi like that?

Is she out of her mind?!

No one in the entire Pei family, not even Old Master Pei, had ever spoken to Pei Fengzhi in such a tone.

The butler forced a smile and tried to smooth things over.

"Ninth Madam and Young Master Xing get along so well; she treats him like her own son!"

Ye Ningwan pouted.

Because they were born of the same blood!

"Wanwan..."

Upon hearing Pei Fengzhi call her name, Ye Ningwan immediately turned to look at him.

"Um?"

Pei Fengzhi lifted a strand of Ye Ningwan's slightly wavy long hair that had fallen over her shoulder, and looked at Ye Ningwan with a half-smile, his phoenix eyes filled with a hint of coldness.

"Didn't you used to dislike children?"

Ye Ningwan blinked innocently and smiled helplessly.

"Aren't you happy that I get along well with Little Star? Do you only feel happy when the family is fighting and making a huge fuss every day?"

Pei Fengzhi remained silent for a while before gently stroking Ye Ningwan's cheek and whispering.

"You've been wronged. Children at this age are going through their first rebellious phase, and they're quite difficult to teach. You'll have to put in extra effort."

Ye Ning nodded, silently thinking to herself.

Actually, they weren't that difficult to raise. Her two little ones took good care of her and never caused her any trouble from a young age.

"It's alright, my child is quite cute and not so annoying anymore."

The housekeeper watched as the two, who were clearly newlyweds, talked about their child like an old married couple, and couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that Ninth Master really likes this Ninth Madam.

...

In the tea room.

Old Master Pei was sitting at the tea table with a pot of tea in front of him, while Madam Pei, who looked pale and sickly, stood beside him.

When Pei Fengzhi led Ye Ningwan through the door, Madam Pei was crying, her sobs filling the entire tea room as if Pei Minghan were already dead.

Pei Fengzhi paused slightly.

He hates it when women cry and make a racket, but Ye Ningwan is an exception.

But Old Master Pei seemed like an outsider the whole time, his attention was entirely focused on the pot of tea in his hand, and he didn't care at all what Madam Pei was crying about.

Ye Ningwan followed Pei Fengzhi into the tea room and greeted him politely.

"dad."

Then he turned and greeted Madam Pei.

"Sister-in-law."

Madam Pei's tearful outburst was interrupted. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, her swollen, red eyes looking at Pei Fengzhi and Ye Ningwan standing at the entrance of the tea room. Her pitiful expression faltered, and she secretly glared at Ye Ningwan with disgust in her eyes.

"Why are you here? Weren't you at the hospital?"

She already understood that Ye Ningwan would never help her find the Immortal Healer, so she would never place her hopes on Ye Ningwan.

Anyway, Ye Ningwan wasn't the only one in the world who could summon a legendary healer. On one hand, she placed her hopes on Zhang Qin, and on the other hand, she tried her best to find a solution from Old Master Pei.

Ye Ningwan said with a smile.

"It just so happened that Ninth Master was also going to see Minghan, so he took me away. I've already been to see Minghan."
