Chapter 35 Do You Care? (Revised)



To put it bluntly, they don't care.

If she truly had any feelings for him, and still remembered the debt of gratitude she owed him for bearing his child, she wouldn't have suffered so much.

Not to mention that even when the child had no milk to drink, he didn't send a single extra penny back to himself.

How many excuses did Song Yanzhi make for him to get through those devastating days and nights?

Now I'm asking myself why I didn't tell him?

Did he forget, or did he simply not read the letter he wrote to her?

Song Yanzhi sneered, "Are you really unaware, or are you pretending not to know?"

Did you read the letter I wrote to you carefully, or did you not even open it?

Pei Yuchen was slightly taken aback.

Before he could even react, Song Yanzhi had already pulled Xiaobao away.

The variety of medicinal herbs here is much greater than outside, and Song Yanzhi prescribed a lot of Chinese medicine according to the doctor's orders.

Although a significant portion of the cost was reimbursed, the traditional Chinese medicine was expensive, and it still cost over ten yuan.

Pei Yuchen seemed lost in thought, and his expression remained rather unpleasant ever since he left the consultation room.

This time, he took the initiative to pay the money.

The group went outside, where there were people selling popsicles. It was past ten o'clock, and the weather was getting hot.

Seeing Xiao Bao staring at it, Song Yanzhi bought him a large popsicle.

Xiao Bao had never eaten this before, so he curiously licked it. It was sweet, icy, and delicious.

His eyes immediately lit up.

Song Yanzhi wasn't planning to go back yet. She saw that Xiao Liu was always following Pei Yuchen, so she knew he must have something to do.

So she turned to the man and said, "Just leave me here. Go ahead and do what you need to do. I'm not planning on going back yet, so you don't need to see me off."

After saying that, she took Xiaobao's hand and walked to the bus stop. Just then, the bus arrived, and she helped Xiaobao onto the bus.

He didn't even glance at Pei Yuchen once from beginning to end.

Xiao Liu also sensed the precarious state of her team leader's marriage and dared not utter a single word.

When he visited the Pei family before, he felt that the regimental commander and his wife didn't seem to have a good relationship.

But none of them have felt as unsettling as they do now.

I never imagined that Commander Pei, who is so young and promising, would have such a complicated family background.

Song Yanzhi was indeed telling the truth. She didn't go home, but instead took Xiaobao to the bookstore and bought him two new notebooks, a pencil, and a pencil case.

Xiao Bao's notebook was torn up by Pei Tiantian. Although it's still usable, it's still not nice to see it broken.

To make it up to Xiaobao, she bought him two more books.

Seeing her little one staring curiously at the children's picture storybook, she picked it up and looked at it. It was a picture storybook with dialogue, which kids love.

Little Bao just can't read yet.

However, seeing that he liked it, Song Yanzhi still bought it.

Now that I have money, I can still afford it.

Just as she was about to leave, someone greeted her from the side.

"Yan Zhi, it's been a long time! What brings you here?"

Song Yanzhi looked over in confusion, only to see it was her high school roommate, Wang Xia. She was holding a child's hand, wearing little leather shoes, a white shirt, and a black skirt. She glanced at Song Yanzhi and said, "I've heard about what happened to your child. Are you alright? Do you want me to put in a good word for you?"

He said he was helping her, but he couldn't hide the schadenfreude in his eyes.

The two grew up together, but whether in junior high or high school, Wang Xia was always overshadowed by her.

Even Wang Xia's current husband once pursued Song Yanzhi.

As luck would have it, her husband also lived in the same residential compound. The two of them got married around the same time. Song Yan had just married Pei Yuchen when Wang Xia married her husband.

Later, Wang Xia got a job as a primary school teacher through her family's introduction.

Song Yanzhi went to work as an accountant at the textile factory.

Their jobs were actually comparable.

Moreover, both women became pregnant at the same time and gave birth to sons.

The difference is that Song Yanzhi's son was suspected of being mentally disabled from a young age.

Wang Xia's son, Jin Bao'er, could speak at the age of two, recite poems at the age of three, do arithmetic at the age of four, and was said to have memorized 300 Tang poems by the age of five.

Song Yanzhi, who used to have an advantage over Wang Xia, is now completely trampled under her feet.

Seeing her now, it's not that I'm trying to help; my real intention is to mock her.

In her past life, Song Yan would always avoid Wang Xia, for fear that she would compare her Jinbao and Xiaobao.

At this moment, she didn't care anymore, nor was she angry at the other party's attitude. She said calmly, "No need, thank you."

"Why are you being so polite with me? We've known each other for a long time. I heard you lost your job and your child can't go to daycare anymore. It's so pitiful. I feel sorry for you too."

Wang Xia said, feigning seriousness.

Song Yanzhi smiled and said, "Really? That day, Xiao Chen even asked me if I could help him get Xiao Bao into Jinying Kindergarten. I was afraid you would be unhappy, so I refused his help. I didn't expect you to care about me so much and even want to help me. Since you don't mind, then I can only trouble Xiao Chen."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xia's face instantly turned extremely gloomy.

The "Xiao Chen" that Song Yan mentioned was her husband.

The man who was heartbroken and drowned his sorrows in alcohol when Song Yanzhi got married.

Even after they got married, this man still couldn't forget Song Yanzhi, so she absolutely believed what Song Yanzhi said.

Song Yanzhi was indeed not lying to her. Her husband used to come looking for her every few days, which annoyed Song Yanzhi to no end.

Under the guise of helping her, he actually liked to touch her inappropriately.

After Wang Xia found out in her past life, she led the group to cause her a lot of trouble.

Song Yanzhi was being thoroughly humiliated, and although Pei Yuchen didn't say anything, his attitude was very cold.
