Chapter 198 Pei Yan is a love-struck person
The Pei family's home is even more luxurious than the outside. The floor is covered with a more than ten-meter-long hand-embroidered carpet, and a crystal ceiling worth hundreds of thousands of dollars hangs from the ceiling. The walls seem to be shining with golden light.
It seems like it will blind people's eyes at any time!
After entering the house and sitting on the sofa, Pei Rao gradually regained his senses.
She was really overwhelmed by the surprise just now. Now thinking about it carefully, this little baby might be Pei Yan's agent to get rid of the blind date.
Pei Yan just happened to be talking to Pei Rao about the blind date. "Mom, now that Xiao Taozhi is with you, I don't need to go on a blind date, right?"
Pei Yan felt that the main reason her mother urged him to get married was that Pei Rao was too bored and wanted to find someone to entertain her.
Pei Rao pretended to be all-seeing, trying to trick Pei Yan: "Pei Sanhuo, you're such a shrewd person, you wouldn't ask some small-time actor to play me, right? You're a businessman, and businessmen always value integrity."
I roughly knew that Pei Rao was beginning to doubt.
But what kind of big scenes has Pei Yan not seen?
He immediately remained calm, tossed a nut into his mouth, and chewed it leisurely, saying, "Of course not. If I really wanted to deal with you, wouldn't it be more convenient to just bring a woman back? Why would I bring a child?"
Seeing that she couldn't get any information out of Pei Yan, Pei Rao turned her attention to the little Tao Zhi beside her: "Little darling, talk to grandma, where is your mom? Why didn't she come?"
Pei Yan paused while chewing the nuts.
This little guy must not let anything slip and get exposed!
Pei Yan's heart immediately began to tighten.
When the word "mom" was mentioned, the bad memories in Fanluo Rain Forest immediately flooded into Xiao Taozhi's mind like a tide.
A huge sadness filled her heart. Little Taozhi's mouth and eyebrows curved downwards, and she spoke in a hoarse voice: "Zhizhi's mother... Mom passed away..."
I didn't expect to get such a result.
Pei Rao looked at Pei Yan in surprise, and suddenly felt guilty.
She patted Xiao Taozhi's back gently and comforted her: "My dear child, don't be sad. Mommy can't be with you in the future, but you still have grandma and daddy. Although daddy is not very reliable, grandma will definitely treat you well."
Pei Yan: “…”
I was caught in the crossfire again for no reason.
Why is he unreliable?
When Pei Yan looked up, he saw Pei Rao staring at him fiercely, as if he was going to bring him to justice.
Pei Yan: “?”
Xiao Taozhi was taken to the toilet by the servant. Pei Rao asked without hesitation, "Tell me the truth, what happened between you and the little baby's mother? Did you abuse them?"
Judging from her age, Xiao Taozhi's mother should be a young married woman at this time. How could she encounter such a thing at such a young age?
Pei Yan cried out in injustice: "Mom, if I really was mean to him and his daughter, would I have brought this child back? Wouldn't I have just let her fend for herself out there?"
Pei Yan didn't want to continue this topic as he was afraid that he would be exposed if he delved further into the matter.
He lied casually, "Mom, please don't ask about the child's mother anymore. What happened is over. Xiao Taozhi and I have finally gotten over it, and we don't want to look back on that painful experience."
Pei Yan's serious look successfully frightened Pei Rao.
Pei Rao's expression instantly grew serious, and she sighed softly, "My child, I've always thought you were a playboy, and that's why you were so attached to the women in the entertainment industry and so reluctant to get married.
I understand you. You have something hidden in your heart that you don't want to say. In fact, you still care about Xiao Taozhi's mother, right? It's because of Xiao Taozhi's mother that you haven't wanted to get married for so many years."
Pei Yan: “…”
"Don't be so quick to deny it. I'm your mother, and I know you've always been very strong-willed. You're not willing to tell me about any difficulties you encounter."
Pei Yan: “…”
"I understand that you've lost a loved one, but I don't approve of you going to places like that to have fun and relieve your inner sorrow."
Pei Yan finally couldn't hold it in anymore, and he almost made a black question mark face.
Pei Yan tried to deny: "Mom, actually I..."
But Pei Rao interrupted him: "It's not easy for you to have endured these years. As a father in the future, you should pay attention to your image and don't go to such places for no reason. How do you want others to think of you and your daughter?
Oh, forget it, don't go on any more blind dates. When you have time, spend more time at home with Xiao Taozhi. This child is pitiful."
Pei Rao paused, then remembered something: "What did you want to say just now?"
"without!"
Pei Yan immediately shook his head. "I just want to say that I will definitely turn over a new leaf and become a good son to you and a good father to little Taozhi."
Pei Rao smiled and pushed Pei Yan: "I didn't expect that my son, who looks like a decent person but is fickle, is actually a lovesick man."
Pei Yan: “…”
Why didn't he feel that his mother's words didn't seem to be a compliment to him?
Chunchun was praising it, but not completely.
At this time, Xiao Taozhi came back from the toilet, her little leather shoes tapping on the ground.
"Grandma, Dad, what are you talking about?"
Pei Rao pushed down the stiff hair on Taozhi's head. "Grandma is just wondering how your stingy dad could have given birth to such a beautiful cub!"
“…”
Pei Yan: "Mom, roosters don't give birth to cubs."
"Yes, yes, roosters don't give birth to cubs, they lay eggs~"
Pei Yan helplessly held his forehead and corrected him: "Roosters can't lay eggs either."
Pei Rao glanced at Pei Yan and said, "Don't I know that hens lay eggs? I wasn't discussing whether hens lay eggs or not when I said that."
Pei Yan: “?”
"The key point, of course, is that beautiful little one at the end!"
Pei Rao's wrinkled hands lifted up Xiao Taozhi's fair and tender face like a trophy:
"Our Zhizhi is the most beautiful and adorable creature in the entire galaxy! You're so lucky to have such a daughter!"
Little Taozhi felt embarrassed by the compliment. She giggled, then echoed Pei Rao, snorted at Pei Yan, and imitated him: "You're lucky!"
Pei Yan was amused by her behavior.
Isn't it a good deal for him to just pick up a baby in the restaurant?
Recalling the scenes in the restaurant, Pei Yan suddenly felt very strange.
Obviously, they had never met before, but when they were in the restaurant, Xiao Taozhi could call out his name immediately.
Although his title as the richest man Pei Yan is well-known in the Kendenia Empire, he is actually very low-key and rarely appears in public.
The few times he appeared in public were when he was interviewed by the country's top economic newspapers.
Logically speaking, apart from people in the industry, no one should be able to match his face with his name.
Could it be that children nowadays start reading economic newspapers at the age of three, so they know him?
Pei Yan fell into deep thought.
Sure enough, the king of curling has to start from childhood.
