Chapter 25 Similar Faces
The two nurses exchanged glances, and the one who was finally stopped by Xie Peizhou whispered, "This afternoon, Miss Wen brought a young lady and a little girl to visit Mr. Xie in the ward. The little girl is lively and well-behaved, and Mr. Xie likes her very much...but we saw that the little girl's face is almost exactly like yours, Mr. Xie."
The nurse said, looking up at Xie Peizhou's sharp and cold face, and then changed her words, "Not exactly the same, but about 70% similar."
The other nurse nervously tugged at her companion's sleeve and amended her words, "Mr. Xie, they're not that similar. They're not similar if you look closely. Maybe we're seeing things."
"Nothing else, let's get busy first."
The two men pushed the medical cart and walked away quickly with their heads down.
Illegitimate daughter, this kind of secret history of wealthy families, the more you know, the faster you will "die".
Xie Peizhou is the largest shareholder of Jingya Hospital. It would be too unfair if he fired them because of this incident!
Xie Peizhou's heartbeat tightened.
He ignored the nurse who slipped away and strode towards the ward with his long legs.
The two people, one big and one small, that Wen Ci brought with her must be Xie Yiyi and... Wen Niannian!
Wen Ci has no blood relationship with him. If her daughter looks 70% similar to him, there is only one reason!
"Thank you, Mr., the old man is talking to the young lady."
Xie Peizhou pushed the door open and entered the ward, just in time to meet the nurse who opened the door.
From the inner bedroom, one could still hear Xie Yiyi's choked and pretendedly optimistic laughter.
Xie Peizhou's heart sank as he strode towards the bedroom. He immediately saw Xie Yiyi lying beside the hospital bed, tightly holding Old Man Xie's hand and secretly wiping away tears.
Xie Yiyi didn't expect Xie Peizhou to come in suddenly. She took a breath to stop her tears and greeted him, "Uncle."
"Um."
Xie Peizhou responded, walked in and called out "Dad" first.
He looked around with his dark eyes filled with undercurrents. In the huge ward, apart from the old man and Xie Yiyi, there was no third person.
Mr. Xie's condition is getting worse day by day. Now that he knows that Xie Peizhou has a lover and offspring, his greatest wish is finally realized, and he can feel that his death is not far away.
After talking to Xie Peizhou and Xie Yiyi for a few words, he felt exhausted.
His old, cloudy eyes looked at Xie Peizhou, and he said weakly, "Little one, find time to contact my lawyer and come to the hospital in the next few days. I need to revise my will."
Xie Peizhou's body stiffened.
But at this moment, he couldn't say anything that would help his father live longer, so he whispered, "Okay, Dad."
"You all go out, I'm tired."
"Then you should have a good rest."
Xie Peizhou and Xie Yiyi quietly left the ward.
The moment the ward door was closed, Xie Yiyi's tears fell like pearls from a broken string.
Xie Peizhou lowered his eyes, reached out and took her into his arms and patted her.
"Uncle, I can't bear to leave Grandpa..."
After a few minutes, Xie Yiyi finally calmed down.
Xie Peizhou poured her a glass of warm water, his tone cool and casual, "Did Wen Ci bring you here this afternoon?"
Xie Yiyi was still immersed in sadness. He took a sip of water and nodded, "Yes, Xiaoci brought Nianbao and me here together."
Xie Peizhou remained calm, "Where are their mothers?"
"Xiao Ci received a call. The female lead of the crew twisted her foot while going down the stairs and was hospitalized. It seemed to be quite serious. Xiao Ci took Nian Bao to the hospital to see her."
Xie Peizhou hummed, "Speaking of Nian Nian, Wen Ci mentioned to me that her birthday is at the end of this month. What birthday gift would the little girl like?"
Xie Yiyi raised her eyes and looked at Xie Peizhou, "Uncle, you must have remembered it wrongly. How could Nianbao's birthday be at the end of June?"
Xie Peizhou said "Oh" in a dull tone, and asked casually, "When was she born?"
Xie Yiyi said, "Nianbao's birthday is September 20th, which is still more than two months away..."
As Xie Yiyi spoke, he noticed that Xie Peizhou's expression gradually became colder.
She realized belatedly that her uncle was setting a trap for her, and her heart skipped a beat.
Fortunately, they always celebrated Nianbao's birthday according to the registration date on his ID card.
Xie Yiyi whispered: "Uncle, why are you angry?"
Xie Peizhou glanced at her coldly, said "It's all in vain that I've loved you all this time", and then turned and left.
This girl has been clinging to him since she was little, like a little tail that can't be shaken off. Every day she speaks sweetly, as if she's been smeared with honey, hugging his thighs and saying, "I love my uncle the most, I will always stand by my uncle's side!"
Oh, what the hell are you standing for?
She is now turning her arms outward. As long as Wen Ci does not betray the country, no matter what happens, she will be like a welded to Wen Ci.
Otherwise, Wen Ci's child is already four years old, why didn't she mention it to him in the past five years?
-
"Director Wen, I'm so sorry."
On the other side, at the hospital, Wen Ci received a call from the leading actress Wu Zhenni, and immediately rushed to the hospital with Nian Nian.
The doctor said: "It's a ligament dislocation and sprain. You need to rest for at least a week to recover. Try not to move around during this period."
Wen Ci looked at the list and sighed. She asked Nian Nian to stay in the ward and went to the corridor to hold a small meeting with the assistant director, producer and several responsible team leaders.
After the crew started work, they were spending money every moment.
In the end, Wen Ci decided to adjust the shooting schedule and shoot the "hospital ward" scenes originally scheduled for next month first.
In the "hospital ward" scenes, Wu Zhenni basically lay on the hospital bed, and only her upper body was filmed.
The ward was filmed in the private hospital where Mr. Xie lives. The old man lives on the SVIP floor, and the venue rented by Wen Ci is on the VIP floor of the same building.
"Mommy, what's wrong with you?"
After coming out of the dean's office after discussing the filming matters, Wen Niannian clearly felt her mother's complicated and depressed mood.
She smiled and said, "Working in the hospital means we can visit Grandpa Xie in his ward every day, isn't that great?"
Wen Ci lowered her eyes and sighed deeply in her heart.
It's good, filming here, she can take her daughter to visit Grandpa Xie every day, and show more filial piety to the old man in the little time he has left.
But being so close, what if Xie Peizhou saw Nian Nian's face...
Wen Ci patted her daughter's head lovingly. "Okay, Grandpa Xie also likes Nian Nian to visit him. But Nian Nian, there are many viruses and bacteria in the hospital. Can you insist on wearing a mask in the hospital?"
Wen Niannian's face fell. She didn't like wearing a mask.
In the middle of summer, wearing a mask is stuffy and uncomfortable, and it also pinches her ears.
But when she thought about her illness and injection in the hospital two years ago, her mother cried secretly every day.
Wen Niannian nodded: "Okay, I understand. I will be healthy and never get sick again!"
Wen Ci smiled gently, her heart softening.
On Monday, the crew adjusted the filming and started the "hospital ward" part of the plot.
Wen Niannian is already very familiar with life on the crew.
When Wen Ci was working, she would quietly eat snacks or play with toys in the area designated by Wen Ci. When she missed Wen Ci, she would look up at her mother who was working.
Wen Niannian also wants to become an excellent director in the future, as powerful and omnipotent as her mother.
"Sister Xiao Liu, I want to go to the bathroom."
While the filming was in progress, Wen Niannian grabbed the hand of Wen Ci's assistant Xiao Liu and whispered to her to take her to the bathroom.
The two of them walked quickly to the bathroom, but they didn't expect that the bathroom was under maintenance.
Wen Niannian's facial features wrinkled into a ball, "Sister Xiao Liu, I can't hold it in anymore!"
Xiao Liu was also very nervous. "What should I do? I'll take you to another floor..."
The maintenance worker said, "Several floors are under maintenance. If you're in a hurry, I suggest you sneak up to the SVIP floor. There shouldn't be a queue there."
