Meng Sheng and Pei Sui stayed in Linhai City for four days. Apart from signing an application form at the Social Security Bureau, she didn't help at all.
Even for the application form, the staff asked Pei Sui, the attorney-in-fact, to sign it.
But I don't know whether it's because he has such a high psychological quality or he's too thick-skinned, but in this situation, he can push the list in front of her without blushing or beating his heart.
He said calmly, "Sign it."
Meng Sheng was speechless for a while. "Is this the application form you mentioned that 'requires signatures from immediate family members'?"
Pei Sui nodded gently, "Well, sign it."
Meng Sheng stared at him, as if she wanted to see how thick-skinned he was, but Pei Sui didn't look guilty at all and just let her stare at him.
In the end, Meng Sheng had no choice but to pinch him on the waist.
Pei Sui's expression finally showed some changes, a faint smile appeared in his eyes, and he grabbed her hand and squeezed it.
Coming out of the Social Security Bureau, Pei Sui held her hand and asked in a low voice, "Are you angry?"
"No."
Meng Sheng was amused, but she wasn't angry about such a small matter. She tilted her head and said jokingly, "Tell me, if my dad knew that you were trying to trick him, what do you think he would do?"
Pei Sui knew that she was teasing him on purpose, but he was more concerned about the meaning of her words.
A bit of seriousness appeared on his cold face, "Why doesn't your father like me?"
In fact, ever since he first visited Meng Chengli in the hospital, he had been thinking about whether he had done anything that made Meng Chengli dislike him.
But apart from the divorce case between him and Meng Sheng, the Pei family and the Meng family have nothing to do with each other.
Meng Sheng paused when she heard this, the smile in her eyes froze, and she suddenly remembered what Meng Chengli had said to her before.
She knew her father meant well.
Although the Meng family is a prestigious scholarly family in Beijing, family relationships are very simple and not complicated.
It's not that I look down on the smell of money in a merchant's home, it's just that no one can live without money.
But the Meng family has a clean and upright family tradition. Even after being married to the Xu family for so many years, they have never seen so many tricks. But a businessman cast a thick shadow on the Meng family.
Compared with the Pei family, the interpersonal relationships in the Pei family seem simple, and there is no dispute over family property, but outsiders do not know how many internal conflicts there are, but they have also heard about them.
Meng Sheng's smile didn't fade away, and he sighed helplessly, "There's only one thing my dad doesn't like about you, but you can't change that."
Pei Sui was stunned for two seconds when he heard this, and then returned to his cold and indifferent look.
His voice was slightly deep, "Because of the Pei family?"
Meng Sheng nodded, "However, my father is also scared by the businessmen and doesn't want me to be involved in a complicated family situation again."
She was able to get away with it unscathed because she had a "plug-in" that helped her avoid all risks.
If it weren't for this "plug-in", the ending of her life would be no different from her previous life, or her life in another parallel world.
After all, there is no escape from death.
Therefore, she will not be confident or arrogant just because of the "plug-in" that can predict text messages.
Everything deserves her serious and cautious treatment.
Pei Sui could understand Meng Chengli's feelings.
But he really couldn't change Pei's background. Of course, he never thought about changing it.
He held her hand tightly and whispered "I know" without making too many promises.
He just felt that no matter how much he talked, it was all in vain. Everyone with a mouth can talk, but actions are different.
Since Meng Chengli had a prejudice against him because of Shang Boyu, he would also let Meng Chengli see that he and Shang Boyu were different.
The two returned to Beijing on the morning of the fifth day.
After having lunch together outside, they all went home. In the afternoon, Meng Sheng drove to the art museum. There were only four days left before the opening ceremony of the exhibition, so she had to follow up on the progress to make sure nothing went wrong.
Around six in the evening, she drove to the hospital to visit Meng Chengli.
Meng Chengli's legs were more swollen than in the past few days. His complexion was fine, but his appetite was poor. She was worried, so she went to Fu Chen to ask about the situation.
Fu Chen comforted her, "Uncle Meng's illness can't be cured in a hurry, it has to be treated slowly, don't worry, I'm here, Uncle Meng will be fine.
But you can give Uncle Meng some more advice on diet. Too little protein intake will affect his recovery speed."
Meng Sheng felt more at ease. "Okay, I understand."
Seeing that she was about to leave, Fu Chen asked one more question, "I heard from Uncle Meng that you and Lawyer Pei went to Linhai City to handle the procedures for his early retirement. How was it? Did everything go smoothly?"
Meng Sheng stopped and replied, "Yes, it went smoothly. It has been submitted. They said there will be results within a month."
"That's good." Fu Chen nodded, "Uncle Meng has finally solved a problem.
By the way, Miaomiao hasn’t seen you these days, and I thought you were still angry about what happened that day and feeling a little depressed. I’d like to trouble you to help her cheer her up.
Although that girl is young, she is sensitive and I am afraid of her..."
Meng Sheng understood the unspoken meaning in his words. Having been with Fu Xuanmiao for so long, she also knew something about Miaomiao.
It's not a big deal, just a few words.
She naturally did not refuse, and added a few more words, "Miaomiao is still young, and she has such heavy thoughts, which is not conducive to her growth.
I know you are busy, but a child only has one childhood, and it is too lonely. She will have to spend her whole life healing her childhood. You should spend more time with her. After all, you are her closest person.
She is only four years old. At this age, she doesn’t need to be so sensible and can be willful.”
Fu Chen was moved when he heard her words.
Even if he was not a careful man, he knew what Meng Sheng was talking about.
He looked at Meng Sheng's serious expression and knew that she was worried about Miaomiao. For a moment, he actually wanted to ask her if she was willing to be Miaomiao's mother.
But the words circled around his lips and were finally suppressed.
It’s not appropriate to talk about this now.
He didn't use his busy schedule as an excuse, "Thank you for your reminder. I'll keep this in mind."
Meng Sheng had no right to say these things, but he just didn't want such a good girl like Miaomiao to have a hard life when she grows up because of too many worries.
The next morning, she and Qiao Na went to the 16th floor to visit Gu Ci and discuss the procedures for the opening ceremony No. 1.
It has been more than twenty days since she was injured while blocking the knife. The wound has almost healed, but she still looks weak and pale.
Meng Sheng said, "If Miss Gu is still not feeling well, she doesn't have to attend the opening ceremony. After all, your health is more important, and you should get more rest.
If she recovers well later, Miss Gu can also add some suspense to the exhibition and attend the closing ceremony in a month."
