Pei Mingzhu raised her eyes and met Chu Yue's gaze. Among so many people around her, Chu Yue was the most special one. She subconsciously examined her.
When Pei Mingzhu looked at Chu Yue, Chu Yue was also looking at this charming and beautiful woman, not only because of Pei Mingzhu's appearance, but also because of Pei Mingzhu's attitude towards Pei Tianci.
Whether a mother truly loves her child is something she cannot pretend.
From the pale worry when Pei Mingzhu appeared, to the trembling with surprise when she hugged Pei Tianci, the strong emotions were all real.
She loved Pei Tianci, but she really needed a boy, so she had to turn her daughter into a son.
As Chu Yue and Pei Mingzhu looked at each other, the atmosphere was subtle and silent for a few seconds.
Pei Hanchuan said hurriedly, "Sister, this is Comrade Chu Yuechu, she is the owner of this grocery store and also the doctor who treated Tianci. She was also the one who found Tianci today."
Doctor Chu?!
The corners of Pei Mingzhu's eyes moved silently, and there was more surprise and joy in her eyes as she looked at Chu Yue.
She heard Pei Hanchuan mention Chu Yue again and again, praising her extraordinary medical skills, but she never imagined that such a young girl could have such amazing abilities.
But if you think about it carefully, only young people can draw those little round-headed and round-brained characters on the notebooks.
Everything was unexpected, yet reasonable.
Pei Mingzhu's attitude towards Chu Yue was full of gratitude and admiration. "Comrade Chu, you found Tianci today, which saved my life. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask. Our Pei family will do everything we can to repay this kindness."
Pei Mingzhu's words are always effective, and are definitely more effective than Pei Hanchuan's.
Chu Yue shook her head and remained calm. "Ms. Pei, it was not me who found your child. It was my son Yuanbao. If you really want to thank someone, thank Yuanbao."
After Pei Mingzhu finished speaking, before she could answer, a voice couldn't help but jump out.
"What did you say?!" Pei Hanchuan suddenly rushed out, staring at Chu Yue with wide eyes, then looked at Lu Yuanbao who looked six or seven years old next to Chu Yue, his pupils trembling slightly, "You said... he is... your son? You are married?!"
Most people would be shocked to hear that Chu Yue is so young but has such a big child.
But he shouldn't have reacted as violently as Pei Hanchuan. He was not only shocked, but also a little panicked.
Lu Yuanbao was frightened by Pei Hanchuan's sudden loud voice, and felt that this man was rude to Chu Yue and did not look like a good person.
He walked to Chu Yue, raised his hands to hug Chu Yue's waist, and seemed to be blocking Chu Yue in front of him, staring at Pei Hanchuan defensively with his dark eyes.
Chu Yue thought Lu Yuanbao was frightened, so she raised her hand and gently touched his head, then asked Pei Hanchuan with a smile, "Is it strange that I'm married?"
"...No...It's not strange..." Pei Hanchuan felt like there was a stone stuck in his throat and couldn't utter a word.
The elegant and noble young master of the Pei family now looked dejected, like a stray dog, full of frustration.
How could Chu Yue get married... How could she get married... How could she get married? !
Pei Mingzhu understood her younger brother the best. As soon as she saw Pei Hanchuan's reaction, she knew what was going on. A spring peach blossom had died before it even turned into a bud.
Or the kind that pulls it out by the roots.
Pei Hanchuan was so unruly in the past that even he himself probably didn't understand why he reacted so strongly when he heard that the other party was already married.
Pei Tianci, who was in Pei Mingzhu's arms, looked at Pei Hanchuan, full of confusion. Why did his uncle become so strange?
But never mind him!
Pei Tianci hugged Pei Mingzhu's neck and said, "Mom, I wandered and got lost, and my brother found me and brought me home."
This also proves what Chu Yue said before.
After a few simple conversations, Pei Mingzhu could see that Chu Yue was not an ordinary worldly person. Gold, silver and money had no attraction to her, but instead looked down on her.
Pei Mingzhu put Pei Tianci on the ground, bent down and squatted, her exquisite and expensive cheongsam touched the ground. She didn't care at all, but looked at Lu Yuanbao with gratitude.
"Your name is Yuanbao, right? Thank you for taking care of Tianci today. Auntie will prepare some gifts for you. I hope you like them. You are also welcome to come to my house to play with Tianci in the future."
Pei Tianci said, "Brother, we will play together next time."
After expressing her gratitude, Pei Mingzhu hugged Pei Tianci and left, no longer disturbing Chu Yue from doing business. As for Pei Hanchuan... she was too lazy to care about this embarrassing brother.
On the road outside, several black cars had been parked at some point.
As soon as Pei Mingzhu walked out, the driver immediately went around to open the door of the black car, bent down respectfully and stretched out his hand to prevent Pei Mingzhu from hitting the door when getting in the car.
Amid the surprised and envious gazes of the crowd, Pei Mingzhu got into the car holding the child.
After the car door was closed, the shiny vehicle drove away.
In the car, Pei Mingzhu let out a long breath after no one was around. She showed a trace of real emotion in her shrewdness and strength. She leaned her chin against Pei Tianci's forehead and whispered, "Baby, you scared your mother."
"Mother……"
Pei Tianci stretched out his little hand and gently stroked Pei Mingzhu's face. The mother and son snuggled together intimately. They were each other's last support in this world.
After a long time.
Pei Mingzhu, who had recovered from her shock, asked Pei Tianci what exactly had happened. She was cautious and did not want to miss any small details. Then she heard Pei Tianci apologize in a low voice.
"…Mom, I'm sorry, I went to the bathroom with my brother."
Pei Mingzhu tensed up, covered Pei Tianci's mouth, looked up at the driver, and asked in a low voice, "Do they all know?"
This "they" also includes Chu Yue.
Pei Tianci nodded seriously and explained hurriedly, "Aunt Chu said this is a secret, don't let my brother tell anyone, keep it secret forever, even their father can't tell."
At that time, Chu Yue was talking to Lu Yuanbao and did not deliberately avoid Pei Tianci. Pei Tianci heard it all.
Pei Mingzhu still looked solemn as she listened to Pei Tianci's words. She then thought about what happened in the store just now. When they met, Chu Yue was acting normal. She just said that she had picked up the child, but didn't mention anything else, and didn't even show the slightest bit of strange emotion.
Can Chu Yue really keep this secret?
And can she...trust Chu Yue?
Pei Mingzhu still had concerns in her heart, but when she looked down at Pei Tianci who was blaming himself, she gently comforted him, "Tianci, this is not your fault. It's mom's fault. Mom is sorry for you..."
As Pei Tianci grows up, this secret cannot be kept hidden forever.
