Chapter 88 Xiao Pei's Diary
The 28th day of the twelfth lunar month is the first day of the “Cold War”.
Pei Zhenghong and Jiang Lanyue, who were packed up by their son and sent to enjoy a romantic date on the sunny beach, were finally picked up.
The plane landed and the convoy drove into Pei Garden. The couple had just gotten out of the car and had no time to feel the warmth of home when they were shocked by the thrilling events that had happened in the past few days and were speechless for a long time.
When Pei Zhenghong heard that the real traitor and the mastermind behind the scenes was Pei Wulin, and that he had even mobilized armed forces, his face became so gloomy that water could drip out of it.
It was then that he suddenly realized that his son's previous attentive arrangements for them to travel abroad were all a cover.
It's to get them out of the way so they can face these dangers.
This kid didn't even tell them a single word about such a dangerous thing!
Even the military special forces quietly entered Pei Garden, and the parents were kept in the dark!
Pei Zhenghong was furious.
With a mixture of fear and worry, he strode into the main house with a grim face.
As soon as I entered the living room, I saw Pei Heng curled up on the sofa, wrapped in a blanket and holding hot milk in his hand.
Her cheeks still had a hint of paleness from recovering from illness.
Pretending.
His eyes also looked a little gloomy.
Not awake yet.
In short, he looked like he was frightened and fragile.
When he saw his father come in with a sullen face, Pei Heng immediately raised his eyes, revealing his guilt and grievance at the right time, "Dad, Mom."
Shen Shi was forced to get into the role and also called out "Mom and Dad".
Pei Zhenghong: “…”
He held it in for a long time, and finally sighed heavily. He walked forward, reached out and rubbed Pei Heng's hair with a complicated tone.
"You... have really grown up and become stronger. You dare to take on such a big thing on your own!"
Jiang Lanyue, who was standing next to them, was already feeling extremely distressed. She immediately stepped forward to hug her two sons and comforted them.
"It's okay, it's okay. Are you scared? Don't do this again in the future. You must tell Mom and Dad if anything happens, okay?"
Pei Heng and Shen Shi nodded together.
Pei Zhenghong looked at his wife protecting her son, shook his head helplessly, and his tone softened.
"Forget it..." He paused, then added with a stern face, "But don't do this again next time. It's too dangerous!"
"Alright," Jiang Lanyue immediately responded, giving her husband a reproachful look. "The child has been so frightened, stop scolding him. It's almost Chinese New Year."
Before Pei Zhenghong could scold, calls came one after another from aunts, uncles and cousins who had heard the news.
He first expressed his shock and heartache at Pei Heng's experience, then changed the subject and began to condemn Pei Zhenghong, telling him not to curse. Finally, he earnestly reminded him to comfort the child if he was frightened and not to show his bad face during the New Year.
Pei Zhenghong was lectured by his relatives one after another until he was in tears and laughter. His fatherly authority was completely extinguished before he could even use it. In the end, he received a lot of gifts from relatives, saying that they were gifts to calm the brave Xiaoheng and New Year gifts, which filled up half of the storage room.
The remaining half was, of course, filled by Pei Zhenghong.
Pei Heng gladly accepted all the gifts and care, and was so moved that he decided to use his non-existent cooking skills to cook a pot of New Year's sweet porridge that symbolizes reunion and blessings, and give it back to Old Pei and the Queen.
This decision made the chief chef and the maids in the kitchen feel like they were facing a great enemy.
It’s okay that Master Pei doesn’t like to go into the kitchen when he grows up, but when he was a child, he had a dark history of trying to make chicken soup with cola and sprinkling salt instead of sugar on half a can!
So, Pei Heng tied on an apron and walked into the kitchen with great interest, followed by a group of trembling and highly alert technical instructors.
From how much water to use when washing rice, to how high the heat should be, to when to add red dates and longans to the pot...
There are at least three pairs of eyes watching closely every step, for fear that some shady dish will be created again.
Fortunately, when Master Pei grew up, he was very obedient. He would add whatever he was told to, stir when he was told to, and turn off the fire when he was told to. He was so well-behaved that it was touching.
After some effort, a pot of sweet and soft eight-treasure porridge with attractive color, fragrant aroma and quite normal appearance was finally successfully produced.
Pei Heng looked at the fruits of his labor and was quite satisfied.
After thinking it over, he decided to let Shen Shi try the taste first.
Ever since all the misunderstandings and knots from past and present lives were completely resolved, Shen Shi particularly liked staying in Pei Heng's study.
There are not only various trophies and photos of Pei Heng since he was a child, but also his treasured diaries and graffiti books that he has written since kindergarten.
For Pei Heng, these things were a bit of a shameful dark history. If anyone dared to look through them, he would definitely be furious.
But when he thought that this person was Shen Shi, Pei Heng even took the initiative to rummage through boxes and drawers, digging out those dusty notebooks that recorded every detail of his childhood and youth, and piled them up in a corner of the study. There were several piles, which was quite spectacular.
In this way, Chen Shi wanted to make up for the years he had missed and not participated in, and to incorporate Pei Heng's entire life into his memory more completely.
From time to time, Chen Shi would write some notes about himself in his diary.
Such as: "My beautiful brother in my dream, please protect me so that I will never be spanked by my father again just because I don't cooperate with the weird psychologist."
"The fat kid next door said I was a liar because he said his little cousin was the most beautiful person in the world. I seriously refuted him because I had met his sister... Oh no, it was actually my brother. Damn fat kid, he embarrassed me. Anyway, I told fat kid that your brother is not as good-looking as mine. But unfortunately, fat kid can't see my handsome brother. He only exists in my dreams. This is my secret."
Looking back, when Pei Heng was older, the diary looked less wrinkled.
Shen Shi also didn't have to work hard to identify Chinese characters from a pile of typos.
"I've changed my psychiatrist again. His name is Su Muzhe. How unfortunate! Because of him, I never want to recite any poems of this tune again! Lao Pei said he was an outstanding psychiatrist and that he treated me like a friend. I was very touched and shared my dream with him, including the beautiful brother in the dream. He was very surprised and said that I really could dream. ...Okay, is that a compliment?"
The next article that follows.
"I will never trust Su Muzhe again. He's a brilliant liar. He didn't complain to Lao Pei, but I never imagined he would inflict another illness on me! I'm so confused. Why am I so delusional? Why can't they just lack imagination and luck, so they don't have a beautiful brother with long hair and beautiful eyes in their dreams?"
Shen Shi couldn't help laughing out loud.
As the handwriting in the diary became more and more beautiful, Pei Heng's records about his "handsome brother" became fewer and fewer after he moved from junior high school to high school. On the one hand, it might be that he was receiving treatment for his paranoia, and his memories of his past life as a teenager were gradually sealed.
On the other hand, while Chen Shi felt a little sad, he was also happy to see that Pei Heng no longer always worried about dreaming and had more vivid memories of his youth.
