Pei Sui didn't bring any clothes with him today. Meng Sheng thought that he and Meng Shixu were about the same height and had similar figures, so he simply took a new set of home clothes from Meng Shixu's room and gave it to him to change into.
Since graduating from college, Meng Shixu has rarely lived at home. Sometimes when he comes back, he only stays for three to five days or about a week.
Therefore, he would have new clothes in his room every quarter, but most of the clothes in his closet had never been worn, mainly because he rarely had the chance to wear them.
Meng Sheng stuffed the clothes into his arms and said, "Try it on first, it should fit."
"good."
Pei Sui tried it on and found that the length and looseness were indeed suitable.
The night was quiet and the moonlight was hazy. The two of them lay in bed hugging each other and chatted until midnight before falling asleep.
The next day, Meng Sheng and Pei Sui returned to the south of the city from the north. It was already half past nine.
There was an important meeting at the art museum in the morning, and Meng Sheng was temporarily unable to find time to go to the hospital. He had originally planned to go there in the evening, so he asked the driver to send the things he brought from the north of the city to the hospital.
But as soon as she brought up the subject, Pei Sui said directly, "I don't have anything to do this morning. I just need to go to the Procuratorate this afternoon to copy some documents. I might as well go there myself."
Since Meng Chengli has agreed, that's perfect. It's better to do it today than to wait for a better day.
Let’s go today.
Meng Sheng was stunned and asked hesitantly, "I'm not here... can you?"
Her father has already relented. Logically, even if she sees him, he shouldn't make things difficult for him anymore, but what if?
After all, her father's prejudice against the Pei family was indeed immense.
Pei Sui raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is your father a monster?"
"That's not the case." Meng Sheng waved her hands. She couldn't let her father's reputation be damaged.
Although he is retired, he is still an old professor and he also works in other places, such as the museum. Every month someone goes to the hospital to visit him and report to him about what is happening in the museum.
Therefore, reputation and public opinion are quite important.
Especially during this period, Gu Yuan's affairs caused a lot of uproar in the wealthy circle of Beijing.
As a scholarly family in Beijing, the Meng family was inevitably compared, but the Meng family was not very prosperous. Meng Chengli was the only son, and he taught in other places all year round. His eldest son, Meng Shixu, was a diplomat and was also not in Beijing all year round.
Their daughter Meng Sheng runs an art museum, and her divorce from Shang Boyu is well known to everyone. Shang Boyu was the one at fault in that incident. Most wealthy families don't know much about the Meng family, and they don't have much interaction with them.
This also reflects the benefits of the family's low-key and introverted nature.
Even though they have kept a low profile, they have not fallen into decline in the capital city where the weak are preyed upon by the strong. Their status remains. This is the unique strength and foundation of the Meng family.
Pei Sui smiled. "So, what are you worried about? Father-in-law, I have to meet you sooner or later. I visited your uncle yesterday, so it doesn't make sense. I have time and opportunity today to not go. If your father finds out, he might think I'm being impolite."
He didn't want to give his father-in-law any more bad impression.
Meng Sheng didn't feel embarrassed when he heard him say "father-in-law" so naturally. He just couldn't help laughing. Then he raised his hand and patted his shoulder, encouraging him, "Then you do your best and try to conquer your father-in-law today!"
Pei Sui's brows relaxed with pleasure. "Is there anything else you want to remind me of?"
Meng Sheng was very serious and considerate in comforting him, "No, my dad is actually quite easy to talk to. Every year, he's voted one of the most beloved and popular professors by students in the department. You can imagine how approachable he is. Don't be nervous. Things are different now. He definitely won't make things difficult for you."
Approachable?
Normally, Meng Chengli is indeed like this, but when he is angry, even if he speaks reasonably and his tone is calm and natural, it still makes people feel stressed.
Pei Sui wasn't nervous at all when he went to Xu's house yesterday, and he wasn't nervous when he went to see Meng Chengli today either.
But when he thought about the day when he, his grandmother and his elder brother went to apologize, and Meng Chengli's tough attitude at that time, he still felt that he needed to be mentally prepared.
Come to think of it, he still didn't know why Meng Chengli suddenly gave in.
Thinking of this, he asked.
Meng Sheng didn't have a definite answer to this question. After thinking about it, she helplessly spread her hands and said, "Actually... I'm not really sure."
Meng Chengli's attitude changed so quickly that she herself didn't react.
But she still mentioned the incident of watching the video the day she came back from Fang Zhiman's wedding. She felt that this was the biggest reason.
However, she could not guess what Meng Chengli was thinking, nor did she expect what her bright and beautiful smile in the video meant to Meng Chengli.
Pei Sui was also surprised for a moment, his expression changed slightly, and a hint of deep thought flashed in his eyes.
He didn't dwell on this matter too much and changed the subject, "Are you going to the hospital this afternoon?"
"Yes, I have to go over and have dinner with my dad tonight. Today is the end of his half-month treatment cycle, and I have to ask the doctor about his condition."
"Then how do we get through the afternoon?" Pei Sui asked thoughtfully.
He didn't know when he would finish his work this afternoon, and he couldn't guarantee that he could take her there.
Meng Sheng knew he had something to do in the afternoon, "Let's take a taxi."
"Then I'll pick you up tonight? Around 8:30 or 9?"
"good."
After watching Meng Sheng enter the art museum, Pei Sui first went back home - Meng Sheng's home.
I didn’t come back last night, and there was no food in Sisi’s bowl. When she heard the door open, she immediately ran over with her short legs, meowing to complain.
The baby is starving to death.
Dad, if you don’t come back, you will just have to watch Bao die!
In fact, it’s not that exaggerated. Meng Sheng and Pei Sui had discussed in advance about going to the north of the city yesterday, so they just put out a day’s worth of food yesterday morning.
For this purpose, Meng Sheng opened a can of food for it.
Pei Sui felt guilty and touched its soft head, then poured food for it, went back to the kitchen, took out a few shrimps from the refrigerator to thaw, and prepared to give it a snack.
He didn't make complicated dishes for lunch. He only made steamed fish, steamed pork ribs with pumpkin, a winter melon meatball soup and stir-fried spinach. They were all light dishes, suitable for patients who had just undergone surgery.
He packed Meng Chengli's portion in a thermos and a lunch box, calculated the time, cleaned up the kitchen briefly, put the dirty dishes into the dishwasher, and without time to clean them carefully, he quickly changed his clothes, took the car keys and went out.
