Chapter 145: Of course they are here to rob people
Shen Lai didn't react for a moment and was confused. "What are you talking about?"
How did the name she gave her child become related to Huo Chilin?
Pei Jingyan gritted his teeth. "You chose to name your child with Huo Chilin's character in it. Aren't you unable to forget him?"
Only then did Shen Lai realize that Pei Jingyan was talking about the character "Lin" in Pei Yinglin. Seeing that the other party had misunderstood like this, she said unhappily, "It's the character "Lin" with the character "Wang" next to it, not the character "Lin" with the character "Yu" at the beginning."
Pei Jingyan said in a stern tone, "Having the same name is not acceptable either. It's unlucky."
Why didn't Shen Lai realize before that Pei Jingyan was so petty that he couldn't even tolerate someone having the same name as him.
She said helplessly: "Then what do you call it?"
Pei Jingyan's face was solemn. After a long silence, he finally spoke, "Forget it. I'll ask someone to find a master to help us think of a name. We can't just pick a random name for our daughter."
How could Shen Lai not see that Pei Jingyan was afraid that the name she chose would be related to Huo Chilin again.
She was too lazy to expose it, and besides, asking a master to calculate it was indeed better than just picking it randomly.
Rich people are always more superstitious in this regard.
Pei Jingyan acted quickly and soon found a famous local master to name it.
Finally, the two decided to name their daughter Pei Chuxia, nicknamed Xia Xia.
As for Pei Jingyan, he recovered completely after two days of rest.
Sometimes Shen Lai even suspected that he was not a human being at all, otherwise how could he be fine after sleeping for two days.
Originally, Shen Lai was worried that Pei Jingyan was having a hard time and wanted to hire a caregiver, but was rejected by Pei Jingyan.
After what happened before, he is now worried about outsiders taking care of Shen Lai.
That morning, Shen Lai was leaning against the head of the bed, enjoying Pei Jingyan's feeding, while the TV in front of him was broadcasting the news of a new fire in a mental hospital.
"According to the latest news, a fire broke out in a Beijing psychiatric hospital in the early hours of Wednesday morning. Preliminary data shows that one mental patient suffered severe burns, but no one has died so far. Police are investigating."
As the host finished speaking, a photo of the injured person was posted on the left, and it was a familiar face that could not be more familiar.
Tong Miaoling?
Shen Lai couldn't stop the surprise on his face. He never expected to see the other person here.
She remembered what Pei Jingyan said last time, that Tong Miaoling was finally released by the police because she was a mental patient. In order to prevent her from hurting others again, Dai Jingxuan sent her to a mental hospital.
Thinking of this, Shen Lai couldn't help but glance at Pei Jingyan.
Pei Jingyan noticed her gaze and raised his eyebrows slightly, "What's wrong?"
Chen Lai originally wanted to ask if Pei Jingyan had done this, but he swallowed the words back in the end, shook his head with a complicated expression, "It's okay..."
Pei Jingyan noticed that Chen Lai's expression was unnatural. He looked at the TV in front of him, and when he saw Tong Miaoling's photo on it, his brows twitched slightly.
He took the remote control from Shen Lai and turned off the phone, "Eat first, otherwise it will be cold later."
Chen Lai said "oh" and drank the porridge that was handed to his mouth.
That afternoon, Wu Qi came to the hospital to visit Shen Lai.
When she heard that Shen Lai had woken up, she immediately put down her work and rushed to the hospital.
"It's all my fault." Wu Qi felt a little guilty. "If I had reacted faster, maybe you wouldn't have gotten into trouble."
Shen Lai comforted him, "Don't say that. If you hadn't stopped Tong Miaoling, I might not be able to keep the baby in my belly."
Speaking of the child, Wu Qi quickly asked where the child was. Unfortunately, Pei Chuxia was not well yet, so it was not convenient to visit for the time being.
Only then did Wu Qi notice Pei Jingyan standing beside him and nodded stiffly at him.
Pei Jingyan nodded slightly as a response. He said to Shen Lai, "You guys chat first. I'll go see my daughter."
Shen Lai nodded, "Okay."
After Pei Jingyan left, Wu Qi touched his chest in fear and whispered, "I was worried that President Pei would be angry with me."
Shen Lai was a little confused, "Why is he angry with you?"
Wu Qi whispered, "Didn't something happen the other day when you went out with me?"
Shen Lai smiled helplessly: "The person who attacked me was Tong Miaoling, not you, how could he be angry with you."
"Besides, you saved me, she can't thank you enough."
Moreover, with Pei Jingyan's temper, if he really took his anger out on Wu Qi, he wouldn't have this attitude."
"Really?" Wu Qi's eyes lit up, and he moved closer to Shen Lai and said, "Then do you think President Pei would give me some resources because I saved you?"
Shen Lai was amused, "Then go ask him."
Wu Qi quickly waved his hands, "I wouldn't dare. If you don't get the resources and then take your anger out on me, you're done for."
Shen Lai chuckled and almost pulled the wound on his stomach.
When Pei Jingyan came back, Wu Qi had already left, and only Shen Lai was left in the ward.
He closed the door behind him. "She's gone?"
Shen Lai hummed, "Wu Qi is still worried that you are angry with her."
Pei Jingyan remained calm, "I wouldn't take my anger out on an innocent person, not to mention that she is half your savior."
Shen Lai thought, if Wu Qi heard this here, he would definitely regret not asking Pei Jingyan for some resources.
But after saying this, Shen Lai remembered that Huo Chilin seemed to have come on the day she woke up.
"By the way, did Huo Chilin come that day?"
Hearing this name, Pei Jingyan's face instantly darkened, "You were unconscious, yet you remember it clearly."
Shen Lai snorted coldly, "Someone is cricketing in front of me, I can't help but hear it."
Pei Jingyan was in the wrong, his face sullen, "What else could he be doing here? Of course he's here to rob people."
Shen Lai raised his eyebrows and teased him deliberately, "Such a good opportunity, why don't you throw me, this hot potato, out quickly?"
Pei Jingyan smiled wryly, "Even if I keep my people at home for the rest of their lives, he won't be able to snatch them away."
Shen Lai's chest felt like a jar of honey had been poured into it, and his heart was soaked in sweetness. He said awkwardly, "Maybe you'll get tired of taking care of me after a while and want to throw me out."
Pei Jingyan reached out and held her in his arms, their bodies inevitably pressed tightly together, without a single gap.
He lowered his head, his deep eyes fixed on Shen Lai, his voice low and magnetic, "You can try and see who gives up first, me or Huo Chilin."
Shen Lai's heart was beating very fast. Something was silently seeping into his body and taking root inside.
Speaking of which, Shen Lai has been lying in the hospital for more than half a month and has not taken a bath. She feels uncomfortable all over, as if there are bugs crawling on her.
So when the doctor came, Shen Lai specifically asked the doctor if he could take a shower.
The doctor said: "Your wound hasn't healed yet, so you can't touch water for the time being. If you really can't stand it, let your family help wipe your body."
Shen Lai almost choked on his saliva.
Asking Pei Jingyan to help her wipe her body, what a joke!
Seeing Shen Lai's face flushed, the doctor jokingly said, "You are already pregnant, what are you embarrassed about?"
"Besides, your husband was the one who wiped your body during the time you were unconscious."
