She was also angry, and thinking that Song Yanzhi was also from the countryside, she decided to mock her in the same way.
Who knew she would retort with sarcasm?
Her expression twisted for a moment, but she still forced a smile and said, "I'm different from my sister-in-law. I did go to university, after all."
Song Yanzhi looked at her for a while, then gave a rather indifferent "Oh".
Zhou Qiao was furious. She took a deep breath and said, "I don't know when Brother Pei will be back. If you want to go in, I can put in a good word for you. But you'll just be standing there with nowhere to go. You and your son might have to make do."
Song Yanzhi said, "You don't need to worry about it."
"Since you've said so, I won't interfere anymore. It's getting late, I'll head back now. Don't worry, if Brother Pei comes back, I'll definitely pass on a message to you."
After saying that, she smiled and went inside.
Xiao Bao didn't know why, but he felt a tightness in his chest.
Song Yanzhi wasn't even angry yet, but he was already angry.
"Mom, I never want to see Dad again."
As he spoke, his voice carried a hint of anger.
Although he couldn't quite understand what the two were saying, he understood that they looked down on them, which was why they weren't allowed to go in.
This place is just like a family compound.
Xiao Bao hates it here.
Song Yanzhi chuckled and ruffled his hair. Zhou Qiao's words were half true and half false. Although Song Yanzhi didn't understand why it was her who came, he was indeed angry with this place.
Regardless of what Pei Yuchen is doing or why he hasn't come over, he shouldn't have asked others to come.
Of course, others may not know about their relationship, and she can't blame them for anything.
But it's obvious that everyone here knows about Zhou Qiao's relationship with Pei Yuchen, which is why they notified her when they couldn't find Pei Yuchen.
"Mom, do we have to wait?" Xiao Bao looked at his mother, feeling an overwhelming sense of regret.
If he had known, he wouldn't have lied and would have let his mother come.
Song Yanzhi patted his head and said softly, "Wait a little longer..."
When Zhou Qiao returned, she ran into the operator who answered the phone and asked, "How is it? Is it someone from Brother Pei's family?"
Zhou Qiao smiled and said, "Yes."
"Then...why didn't they come in?" He was quite curious about what Pei Yuchen's wife and children looked like.
Zhou Qiao said, "I let her in, but she wouldn't come. She said she wanted to leave, and there was nothing I could do."
"I see." The other person said with some regret, "Then I'll tell Brother Pei when he arrives."
Zhou Qiao said, "Don't worry, I'll talk to him. It's getting late, you should go home and rest."
"Thank you for your help."
Zhou Qiao smiled. She had already said so much; she didn't believe Song Yanzhi would leave without getting angry.
...
Another half hour passed outside the door.
Xiao Bao sneezed.
Song Yanzhi frowned and thought for a while.
She stepped forward and handed the package to the gatekeeper, saying, "This is for my husband. I hope you can deliver it to him. Don't give it to any other relatives or friends."
The security guard was taken aback. "Then why didn't you give it to that person?"
“I told you, this is for my husband. I only trust you to give it to you because you're the security guard here. All mail is sent to you and then forwarded to him, so this thing must be in his hands, understand?”
She spoke seriously, so that the security guard wouldn't hand things over to outsiders so easily.
Otherwise, given Zhou Qiao's behavior, if she knew there were Pei Yuchen's things here, she might actually want to look at them.
The seriousness of Song Yanzhi's words.
The security guard became more serious and nodded. "We will notify Captain Pei, please don't worry."
Song Yanzhi said nothing more, grabbed Xiaobao, and was about to leave when the gatekeeper hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"
It's late at night, and this place is remote; it's hard to even get a taxi.
Song Yanzhi said, "Go find a place to stay."
There are definitely no cars left at night, so I'll have to stay in a hotel for the night.
The gatekeeper hurriedly asked, "Aren't you waiting for Captain Pei?"
Song Yanzhi said indifferently, "We've waited. Since he's so busy, we won't bother him any longer."
The gatekeeper was at a loss for words.
Actually, he thought the child looked about six-tenths like Captain Pei.
You can tell at a glance that it's someone else's child.
But since no one came to lead him in, he didn't dare let anyone in.
The people who just came out didn't say they wanted to go in, so he couldn't say anything either.
I was thinking of asking her to wait a little longer, but Song Yanzhi had already taken the child and left.
...
It was quite late when Pei Yuchen returned to his dormitory after the meeting.
Thinking that he could go home tomorrow, he was not in a hurry to rest, but got up to pack his luggage.
He didn't have much of his own, but he asked someone to buy some local specialties for Xiaobao and Song Yanzhi to try.
In addition to these, he also bought some books.
It was packed full of bags.
If he hadn't been delayed today, he would have been able to catch the last bus home this afternoon.
Having experienced the warmth of home, this moment of loneliness feels especially unbearable.
After work, he devotes his time and energy to his family.
When I was in the west, I would think about it, but I never felt this eager.
After packing his things, Pei Yuchen felt his mind was still clear, so he simply got up and left the room.
The wind is quite strong on the balcony, and the temperature here is much lower than where they are.
The temperature difference between day and night is particularly large.
However, this kind of coldness can actually calm a restless heart.
Pei Yuchen looked around for a while, then turned to go inside. Just then, the door next to him opened, and Yang Wei, seeing him, exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Pei, you're back already?"
Pei Yuchen glanced at him and responded.
"Are you all alone?" Yang Wei asked again.
As she spoke, she looked into his room.
Pei Yuchen frowned. "What do you mean?"
Who else could it be but him?
Yang Wei laughed awkwardly, "I heard your wife and son came to see you. I thought they would stay overnight, but they left right away?"
