Chapter 12 My Wife

Gu Mian's pupils suddenly contracted, and he tried his best to push Li Tingshen.

Li Ting was deeply disturbed and was not ready to continue, so he was easily pushed away by her.

Pei Jinchuan's gaze fell on Gu Mian.

The girl's face was as red as a ripe tomato, full of embarrassment. She didn't dare to look him in the eye. She lowered her eyes and greeted him softly, "Mr. Pei."

Pei Jianchuan smiled and looked at the man beside her, "It seems that Mr. Li is very interested in my caregiver."

Gu Mian was stunned. They actually knew each other!

Compared to Gu Mian's embarrassment, Li Tingshen was so calm that it seemed as if what had just happened had nothing to do with him.

He looked at Pei Jianchuan, his handsome and flawless face revealing no emotion. "I was wondering how Gu Mian could stand up to me. It turns out that he has the support of President Pei. However..."

"But what?"

Li Ting curled his lips deeply, raised his hands to hold Gu Mian's shoulders, and held her in his arms, "Didn't Gu Mian tell you about the relationship between her and me?"

Pei Jianchuan said calmly, "I have known Gu Mian for many days, but she never mentioned you to me, and she probably didn't want to see what happened just now."

Li Ting nodded deeply, "It seems that Mr. Pei knows my wife quite well."

Pei Jianchuan's eyes flashed with shock, but he quickly regained his composure. "I really didn't expect that Gu Mian was Mrs. Li. Who would have thought that the mistress of the Li Group would do such a hard job as a nurse just to make a little money. Mr. Li, women are meant to be loved."

"President Pei, please don't worry about our little love affair. I'll take my wife home first."

As he said this, he was about to take Gu Mian away.

"Wait a minute." Pei Jianchuan stretched out a hand to stop them. "Gu Mian is the caregiver I hired. She can't leave until she finishes her work today. President Li should understand this, right?"

Li Tingshen smiled faintly, without a trace of warmth on his handsome face, "Boss Pei, do you think that I would let my wife continue to serve others knowing the truth?"

"No matter what, she should finish today's work." Pei Jinchuan looked at Gu Mian, "Gu Mian, what do you think?"

"Boss Pei is right." Gu Mian pushed Li Tingshen's hand away, "You go home first. I have to go to work."

Before Li Ting could open his mouth, she added, "This is a public place, it won't look good."

Perhaps it was because the three of them were so good-looking that many passers-by were glancing at them and imagining a bloody drama of two men fighting for one woman.

Li Tingshen always hated being watched and spied on, so he didn't insist. He just looked at Gu Mian and said, "Come back soon. I'll wait for you."

I don’t know if it was an illusion caused by sleepiness, but I felt that his words were like the summons of the devil, which made my scalp tingle.

"Sleep...sleep?"

When Gu Mian came to his senses after hearing Pei Jianchuan's voice, Li Tingshen had already left.

She breathed a sigh of relief, "Mr. Pei, thank you for helping me out."

"It's a piece of cake."

A strange thought flashed through Pei Jinchuan's mind.

He is obviously not the kind of person who likes to meddle in other people's business, and Li Tingshen is not someone to be trifled with.

But for some reason, he still cared.

"Gu Mian, you look young, but I didn't expect you're already married, and you're Li Tingshen's wife."

Gu Mian smiled and said, "Did you know each other before?"

"I met him at a dinner party, but we weren't very familiar with each other."

"oh."

"Let's go upstairs."

On the way back to the ward, Gu Mian had already told Pei Jianchuan what had just happened, "...It's my fault. Buying the cake took quite some time."

"I know my son. If he wants to have his cake and eat it, he has to have it too. I don't blame you."

"Thank you, Mr. Pei."

"I will take care of this matter, don't worry."

"Um."

Back in the ward, Xiaobao, who was crying, saw Gu Mian and immediately ran over to hug her, "Mom, you're finally back! Did that bad guy bully you?"

Gu Mian thought of the scene in the elevator and blushed again, "No, Xiaobao, I'm fine."

Xiao Bao then complained to Pei Jinchuan, "Dad, a bad aunt just bullied me, but luckily my mom protected me. Look how much my mom loves me!"

Gu Mian was extremely embarrassed. Those who didn’t know would think that she deliberately taught Xiaobao to say that to win favor!

Pei Jianchuan touched his head and said, "Dad knows. Didn't you want to eat Western food yesterday? Let's go tonight."

"good!"

Pei Jinchuan turned to look at Gu Mian, "Gu Mian, let's have dinner together."

"No."

"You protected Xiaobao today, so he's fine. I should thank you." Pei Jianchuan said, "And Xiaobao must want to have dinner with you."

Xiaobao immediately responded, "Of course, I won't eat if mom is not around."

Gu Mian couldn't resist, "Okay."

"Let's go now. It's a good opportunity to take Xiaobao out for some fresh air."

Gu Mian changed Xiaobao out of his hospital gown, and the three of them went out together.

Xiaobao held Pei Jianchuan in one hand and Gu Mian in the other, jumping for joy.

In the next ward, Yin Luoxue took out her cell phone, took a picture of this heartwarming scene through the crack in the door, and sent it to Li Tingshen.

She was just thinking about what Li Tingshen would do to Gu Mian after seeing the video, when there was a knock on the ward door.

"Come in."

A young man in a suit came in. Yin Luoxue asked, "Who are you?"

"Hello, I'm the assistant of Xiaobao's father next door. I heard that Xiaobao broke your bracelet, and I'm here to compensate you."

Yin Luoxue curled her lips and said, "My bracelet is very expensive. Can you afford it?"

"Although Xiaobao said it was not intentional, he still understands that if you damage something, you have to pay for it. I wonder how much this bracelet is worth."

"Twenty-eight million." Yin Luoxue said proudly, "I've only worn it for a little over a month. Taking into account depreciation, it must be at least twenty-five million."

The assistant said nothing.

"You have nothing to say, right? I knew you couldn't afford to pay for it." Yin Luoxue sneered, "It's okay if you can't afford to pay for it. Ask the child and his caregiver to apologize to me. Maybe when I feel better, I will forgive them..."

The assistant took out his cell phone and said, "Give me your bank card number."

"...Are you really unlucky?"

"Give it to me."

Yin Luoxue gave the card number doubtfully, and within two minutes, she received a deposit notification on her mobile phone: 28 million, not a penny less.

While Yin Luoxue was stunned, she heard the assistant say, "We paid for the bracelet. Now we're going to settle the score for you beating up our young master."

"I......"

Before Yin Luoxue could even open her mouth, a slap hit her hard in the face!

The man was very strong, and he was not soft-handed. Yin Luoxue was hit so hard that she saw stars. "You... you dare to hit me? You know I am... Snap!"

Another slap landed on her face, and the corner of her mouth started bleeding!

Yin Luoxue felt pain and anger, "I only slapped him once, why did you slap me twice!"

"Who told you that I only slapped you twice?" The assistant moved his wrist and continued to slap him hard.

“Ah—help—”

In the ward, Yin Luoxue's wailing and begging for mercy could be heard continuously.

......

When the phone rang, Li Tingshen was looking at the video sent by Yin Luoxue with a gloomy face.

He was in no mood to answer the phone, so he just muted it and threw the phone aside.

Not long after, the assistant knocked on the door and came in anxiously, "Boss Li, it's bad, Miss Yin was beaten!"
