Old Master Pei may not have been unaware of this, he was just quite reluctant to part with his son.

After all, their son had finally woken up, and now they had to be separated again...

He spoke to Pei Fengzhi almost pleadingly.

"You should stay here. I promise I'll protect you and make sure nothing like this happens again!"

But Pei Fengzhi's attitude was resolute; he calmly looked at Old Master Pei.

“Even during the four years I was in a coma, many people tried to kill me. I was bullied and abused. Even though you tried your best to protect me, you still couldn’t.”

Upon hearing this, Old Master Pei's eyes welled up with tears, and he clenched his fists.

"Fengzhi, are you blaming me? At that time, I had to manage the company's affairs while also taking care of you. Besides, my health wasn't what it used to be. In the end..."

Pei Fengzhi shook his head.

“You have done the best you could. A person’s energy is limited, and besides, I am now awake. Rather than waiting for someone to protect me, I am more used to protecting myself.”

In the dark, confinement cell, Old Master Pei gazed intently at his son.

For various reasons, Pei Fengzhi was not raised under his watchful eye during his childhood, and later, during his teenage years, he went to another place.

He was very busy at that time, and even though he loved his son dearly, he couldn't take care of him. It wasn't until he got older and wanted to enjoy his family life that he realized Pei Fengzhi had grown up without him noticing.

Old Master Pei felt an indescribable regret. He sighed softly, then nodded to Pei Fengzhi and gave him a word of advice.

"Then remember to bring Wanwan back for dinner every week, so she can see this old man."

Pei Fengzhi smiled.

He made a promise to Old Master Pei.

"When everything settles down, our family will finally be able to reunite, and we'll be together every day then."

Old Master Pei was slightly moved.

After a long while, he said with a rather helpless expression.

"Stop talking about that. If you really have the filial piety, hurry up and give me a grandson, or a granddaughter will do!"

Upon hearing this, Pei Fengzhi suddenly recalled the little guy from the KFC outside the hospital.
