Meng Chengli looked at Pei Sui's bent back, with a complicated look in his eyes.
He actually didn't have any big opinions about Pei Sui.
In addition to the Pei family's family background and Cui Xueheng's mother, if Shengsheng likes him and is willing to be with him, he may make things difficult for him a few times, then carefully observe his character, and agree after confirming that he is right.
To him, the Pei family was not a very prestigious family, but it was complicated and he was afraid that Meng Sheng would repeat the same mistake.
But now...
Having seen Cui Xueheng's rudeness and domineering behavior, how could he dare to hand his daughter over to such a person?
Isn't this pushing my daughter into the fire?
In such a family, even if there is an open-minded and kind old lady, Cui Xueheng, as the mother-in-law, already occupies most of the space.
What if he passed away one day? His elder brother was always abroad. This girl only reported good news and not bad news. Even if her uncle was in Beijing, she would definitely not tell anyone if she suffered any grievances.
Meng Sheng also looked at Pei Sui bending down and bowing with deep apology and guilt, and his heart was still pricked by a needle.
It hurts, but it doesn't seem to get any softer.
He simply looked away and turned away.
Pei Sui kept his eyes on Meng Sheng. When he saw her leaving, he felt that something was slipping away from his heart bit by bit, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't hold it back.
He clenched his fists and tried hard to restrain himself so that he could catch up.
Pei Yu happened to be standing next to him, and he solemnly apologized to Meng Chengli. Although he was a businessman, he did not have any smell of money, and still had the innate noble and aloof temperament.
So they didn't say any nice polite words, but went straight to the point. Every word and sentence represented the sincerity of their Pei family.
Meng Sheng didn't want to stay in the ward, and she knew what Meng Chengli would probably say. It's not that she didn't want to listen, but she didn't dare to listen.
After leaving the ward, she took the elevator to the first floor corridor connecting to the outpatient building in front, where there was a coffee shop.
She usually doesn't like coffee because she thinks it's too bitter.
In comparison, she prefers sweets such as milk tea and dessert ice cream.
But at this moment, she urgently needed this bitterness to suppress the sourness that was spreading infinitely in her heart and the subtle pain that could be vaguely conveyed.
Following the clerk's recommendation, she bought a cup of cold brew and drank half of it in two sips. The cool feeling made her mind clearer, and even the tiredness in her body seemed to be much less.
The taste of cold brew is smoother and the sweetness is more prominent. In comparison, the bitterness is much less noticeable.
It was her first time trying cold brew, and it tasted pretty good.
She emptied her mind for a moment, leaned against the wall, slowly closed her eyes, and the elegant aroma of cold brew filled her nostrils.
"What's going on?"
Suddenly, a familiar male voice sounded.
Meng Sheng opened her eyes upon hearing that, and immediately saw a familiar calm and handsome face. She was stunned for a moment, a little surprised, "When did you come?"
"just."
Fu Chen smiled and saw the cold brew in her hand. "Are you here to buy coffee?"
Meng Sheng straightened up, but didn't mention the Pei family coming to the hospital. He just said "hmm" lightly.
Fu Chen knew that she hadn't slept last night and must be tired and sleepy now, but he didn't dare to sleep.
He had actually advised this when he went to the ward to check on Meng Chengli last night and this morning.
But Meng Sheng responded well, but he just didn't listen.
It was also the first time he knew that she had such a stubborn side, but he was helpless.
"Just send me a message and I'll bring you a cup, or have someone deliver one. There's no need for you to go all the way there."
"It's okay. I also want to come down and take a walk to catch my breath." Meng Sheng forced a smile at him.
"No need to force a smile like that."
Fu Chen looked at her pale face and dark circles under her eyes, and sighed distressedly, "Your health is also important. Don't let it wear you down. Uncle Meng will be worried about you, and it might even affect his subsequent recovery."
"Listen to me, you must go back and get a good sleep tonight. Only when you have enough energy can you take better care of Uncle Meng. Otherwise, if you fail to take good care of Uncle Meng and he collapses, it will not be worth it."
He deliberately kept a straight face and said solemnly, "This is the doctor's order. The family must obey the doctor. This concerns the patient's recovery progress and cannot be done arbitrarily."
Meng Sheng was amused by his deliberately serious expression, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips. "Yeah, I know."
Yesterday was so thrilling, and Meng Chengli was not in good condition the whole night, so how could she sleep?
Even if I fall asleep, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well and will have nightmares.
But she wouldn't hold on like this. It would only harm her body. It was time to go back, take a good bath and have a good sleep.
As Fu Chen said, Meng Chengli would also feel distressed and worried. His bad mood would somewhat affect his subsequent rehabilitation.
She knew that Meng Chengli had grievances against the Pei family and disliked Cui Xueheng. With someone from the Pei family coming today, it was a good opportunity for him to vent his anger, which was better than holding it in.
"It's almost time. I'll go up first."
Meng Sheng looked at his watch and saw that it had been more than ten minutes. He didn't want to stay any longer. He said something and prepared to leave.
Seeing the relaxed smile on her face, Fu Chen felt relieved and asked another question, "What time will you go back tonight? You didn't drive here, did you? Should I give it to you?"
Meng Sheng glanced sideways at him and politely declined, "No, you're busy too, and you have to accompany Miaomiao. Going back and forth will take more than an hour, which is a huge waste of time. It's more convenient for me to take a taxi back."
Seeing her calm expression and eyes as serene as a still lake, Fu Chen didn't force her after all, so he didn't plan to persuade her any further.
He just nodded and said, "Okay, go back and have a good sleep, charge your phone, and come back tomorrow morning. I will help you take care of Uncle Meng at night. If there is anything, I will call you in time."
Meng Sheng's voice was gentle, but the words he said were all polite refusal. "You've been very busy these past few days. You should have a good rest since you are not on duty tonight. My cousin will be here tonight and he will help me watch over the place."
Fu Chen paused.
A strange feeling inexplicably crept into my heart.
It was like he was excluded by her...a kind of discomfort that he couldn't even explain.
That’s not right either. This word still doesn’t seem quite accurate.
What?
Fu Chen searched his mind for all the words he had learned over the past thirty years, trying to find a suitable word to describe his current mood.
Unwilling?
He picked out this word and repeated it several times, and then he felt that it was more and more like this.
Well, I just can't accept it.
There seems to be nothing more...
He felt ridiculous for his childish idea.
You are no longer a young boy in your teens or twenties. What is there to be unwilling about?
Regardless of whether her words were meant to be polite, there was a hint of concern in them. It was understandable that his cousin came to help her keep watch.
After all, they are family.
Her own brother is not around.
After all, he was just an outsider, and it was really unreasonable for him to be jealous of his cousin.
The person who helped her keep watch was not Pei Sui.
Pei Sui...
Thinking of this name, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and the light in his eyes dimmed.
After this incident, their relationship might be coming to an end.
Okay.
It saves a lot of trouble.
After watching Meng Sheng enter the elevator, he turned and left.
