Chapter 106 The Fate of Pei's Mother
When Yun Zhaozhao arrived at the pet hospital, the anesthesia on Yun Xiaobao had completely worn off. Because of the surgery, it was in a lot of pain and kept whimpering, which made Yun Zhaozhao feel distressed.
Pei Jiuyan sat beside it the whole time, gently stroking its head to comfort it.
To be honest, if Yun Zhaozhao hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed that Pei Jiuyan had this side to him.
Smelling Yun Zhaozhao's scent, Yun Xiaobao whimpered even louder. Yun Zhaozhao quickly joined in to comfort him, bringing Yun Xiaobao's favorite toys and even his doghouse.
"Little Bao, you need to stay here and rest well these next few days. We can go home when you're all better."
Whether or not he understood Yun Zhaozhao's words, Yun Xiaobao licked Yun Zhaozhao's hand.
The two didn't leave the pet hospital until evening. Yun Xiaobao probably knew they had to leave, so she didn't chase after them, but obediently lay there watching them.
Yun Zhaozhao's nose tingled. Yun Xiaobao was really sensible. Why did she think it was all Yun Xiaobao's fault back then? In the end, it was because it couldn't speak up and couldn't defend itself. And she thought she knew Fu Shangluo too well and thought he wouldn't do anything to hurt Yun Xiaobao, which led to this situation.
"Yun Xiaobao will be fine. I'll take you home first. You've had a busy day, so you need to get some rest."
Without waiting for a reply, Pei Jiuyan took Yun Zhaozhao to the car and drove her home. He was very considerate and only took Yun Zhaozhao to the door without going in.
"You should rest a bit more tomorrow. I'll go see Yun Xiaobao first in the morning before going to the company, so don't worry."
It has to be said that Pei Jiuyan was really reassuring at this moment, and Yun Zhaozhao did not refuse, as she was indeed extremely tired today.
The next day, after she woke up and ate breakfast, she prepared to take her carvings to visit Yun Xiaobao. She still had a few pieces to finish, and she could work on them while she was with Yun Xiaobao. But when she went out, she found Fu Shangluo outside.
She frowned. When did Fu Shangluo become this persistent and clingy?
“Zhaozhao”.
Fu Shangluo, carrying something in his hand, said, "I want to go see Yun Xiaobao."
"No need, Brother Shangluo."
Yun Zhaozhao refused. She knew that Fu Shangluo thought she was making a mountain out of a molehill. It was just a dog, after all. But through their time together, she had already come to regard Yun Xiaobao as her own child.
She didn't want to force Fu Shangluo, and she didn't want to wrong Yun Xiaobao.
"Brother Shangluo, it's all over now. As I said, we'll still be friends and siblings from now on."
It's impossible to go any further.
"Zhaozhao, can't you really give me another chance?"
Fu Shangluo suddenly asked.
Yun Zhaozhao didn't notice that his expression was a little off. "Brother Shangluo, you know me."
From the beginning, she felt that she and Fu Shangluo were not meant to be together, but he insisted, which is why she agreed to let him pursue her. As it turns out, they were indeed not suitable for each other.
"Okay, I understand."
After Fu Shangluo finished speaking, he turned and left. Watching his figure, Yun Zhaozhao sighed. She guessed that she and Fu Shangluo would not have any contact again in the future.
When Yun Zhaozhao arrived, the staff told her that Pei Jiuyan had just left a while ago, and the dog was very happy to see her. When it tried to move, Yun Zhaozhao quickly stopped it.
Seeing his master with him, Yun Xiaobao quickly lay down and fell asleep, while Yun Zhaozhao took out her carving tools and focused on her work.
Midway through, Zhou Xiao came by and was heartbroken to see Yun Xiaobao suffering so much.
"Our poor little Bao is so pitiful. When you get better, Auntie will treat you to a big meal."
Yun Xiaobao and Zhou Xiao were also very familiar with each other, and upon hearing this, he fawned over her.
After the two of them played around for a while, Yun Zhaozhao finally let Yun Xiaobao rest properly.
"I never expected Fu Shangluo to be this kind of person."
Zhou Xiao sighed. They had known Fu Shangluo for many years, and none of them expected him to lay a hand on a little dog.
"Maybe it's just because they don't like it."
Yun Zhaozhao didn't think there was anything wrong with Fu Shangluo's character. After all, they had known him for so many years and knew his personality best.
Fu Shangluo is just too perfect, sometimes so perfect that he's like a mannequin.
He is very strict with himself, and it's hard to tell what he likes. He's proficient in everything, but he can't say what he likes.
When she was a child, she thought Fu Shangluo's self-discipline was amazing, but she found it terrifying when she grew up.
Such a person can be very dangerous if they lose control.
"By the way, Whale originally wanted to come, but his movie is about to be released, and he's busy promoting it so he can't make it. He asked me to bring Xiaobao a big red envelope."
Yun Xiaobao is definitely the richest dog.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Xiao suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Um, is Pei Jiuyan still not done here?"
Zhou Xiao pointed to her own head; she was one of the few people who knew that Pei Jiuyan had cognitive problems.
"Not yet, what's wrong?"
Yun Zhaozhao knew that Zhou Xiao wouldn't say this for no reason.
"I heard he's been making a lot of noise these past few days, completely changing his previous 'hit-and-run' approach. Now he's pushing people to the brink."
She heard these words from Zhou Fu.
"Also, I heard he sent his mother to one of those community nursing homes."
"This news is true."
Being part of the medical system, these kinds of messages spread the fastest.
This was something Yun Zhaozhao hadn't expected.
However, judging from the last time Pei's mother caused trouble at the company, she was not surprised. Not to mention that Pei Jiuyan doesn't even remember Pei's mother now, even if he did, he probably wouldn't let it go so easily.
Moreover, judging from these two interactions between Pei Jiuyan and her mother, she realized that she had never really understood this mother and son before.
She had always thought that she and her son were very close and depended on each other for survival, until recently she discovered that this was not the case at all.
Pei Jiuyan didn't care about her mother as much as she imagined, while Pei's mother only had Pei Shi in her heart.
Coming to her senses, Yun Zhaozhao said nonchalantly, "Who cares? It's none of our business anyway."
"That's true. I was just reminding you, Pei Jiuyan can be so ruthless to his own mother, don't let his current behavior fool you."
Right now, Pei Jiuyan only has Yun Zhaozhao in his eyes, which sometimes moves even her, an outsider. But what if he recovers one day and becomes that obsessive person again?
"Don't worry, I won't."
If it weren't for Yun Xiaobao's accident, she would never have crossed paths with Pei Jiuyan again.
However, there's something I need to do as soon as possible.
