Over the past few decades, Pei Zhi believes that she has always lived a very happy life.
Pei Zhi has made many gains in her work.
She has produced many successful TV series and won numerous producer awards.
Within the industry, once Pei Zhi's name is mentioned, many people vie to appear in the movies and TV series she produces.
However, three years ago, Pei Zhi announced that she would no longer produce any TV dramas.
The reason is quite simple.
Hu Shih passed away three years ago.
Hu Shih’s death came very suddenly. One morning, Pei Zhi suddenly received a phone call from Hu Shih’s assistant.
They said Hu Shi had been sent to the hospital for emergency treatment and his condition was not good. They hoped Pei Zhi could come over.
Hu Shi had no relatives, and he was married three times over the years.
But each time, it ended in divorce.
Hu Shi had two children from his three marriages, a boy and a girl.
When Pei Zhi rushed to the hospital, the doctor was just announcing that Hu Shi had died despite all efforts to save him.
Pei Zhi never expected that the person who was chatting and interrupting her yesterday would suddenly be gone.
The doctor said it was sudden death. Pei Zhi was already quite old, yet she was still staying up all night filming.
Hu Shih had no one left to rely on; his two children were studying abroad and couldn't return for the time being.
Pei Zhi handled all of Hu Shih's funeral arrangements.
With three men helping Pei Zhi, she wasn't tired at all.
Also in that year, Pei Zhi announced her retirement from the entertainment industry.
Once she finishes her work, she will not continue with any more.
Xie resigned in the same year and also announced his retirement.
Xie Ci Nian had already groomed a successor, a distant relative of the Xie family, whose parents had both died in a car accident.
In order to leave behind his parents' inheritance, the child traveled a long distance alone to seek help from Xie Cinian.
That same year, Xie Ci Nian fell ill with a minor ailment.
This also made Xie Cinian feel a sense of crisis, fearing that if something happened to him one day, there would be no one in the huge company to take care of him.
Xie Cinian never planned to have a child of his own in this lifetime.
Just then, a child who seemed fairly clever came to their door, and Xie Cinian was too lazy to choose.
After Xie Ci retired, his life revolved around Pei Zhi.
He accompanied Pei Zhi to the film set and stayed by her side every day.
In Xie Cinian's words, he was a few years older than Pei Zhi.
He didn't know how many more years he had left to live.
Therefore, he wanted to spend more time by Pei Zhi's side in the past few years.
After Hu Shih left, Pei Zhi declined all invitations.
Chi Xiuwen and Lu Mingxu also began to slow down their work.
At this age, what is there to be upset about?
Hu Shi had already made a will and outlined the distribution of his estate.
Pei Zhi's name appeared many times in Hu Shih's will.
In all of Hu Shih's wills, before his two children got married, in addition to the annual tuition fees, there were also monthly living expenses.
All the remaining assets were managed by Pei Zhi.
After the two children get married, the estate will be divided between them according to the proportions specified in Hu Shih's will.
At Hu Shih’s funeral, Pei Zhi couldn’t help but curse after hearing the will.
Hu Shi is already dead, yet they still want to cause trouble for her, really.
Pei Zhi could only shake her head silently. The person was already dead; what else could she do?
Out of respect for the deceased, Pei Zhi could only keep these worries to herself.
Fortunately, Hu Shih's two children also knew Pei Zhi.
Knowing that Pei Zhi was rich, she would never covet the inheritance left by her father.
Otherwise, this matter will become even more troublesome.
Whether it was a curse or something else, after Hu Shi passed away, Pei Zhi's friends who had known her over the years also passed away one after another.
This year, Pei Zhi herself has been frequently visiting the hospital.
Several men were serving Pei Zhi diligently, but despite this, Pei Zhi still felt exhausted.
She worked hard, and so did these men.
Over the years, several men have taken good care of her.
Even when the weather suddenly changes, she rarely gets sick.
Another day, Pei Zhi woke up and found herself lying in a familiar hospital room again.
Pei Zhi looked up and saw the marks left by the IV drip in her hand. She sighed helplessly.
Lu Mingxu gently touched Pei Zhi's hand reassuringly: "Does your hand hurt?"
"Um."
Lu Mingxu wiped Pei Zhi's palms with a warm towel, "It'll be over soon, just hang in there a little longer."
Pei Zhi suddenly said, "Lu Mingxu, it seems like you have more gray hair on the side of your head."
Lu Mingxu touched the side of his hair. "I'll get it dyed after you're discharged from the hospital."
"Don't dye it anymore," Pei Zhi said with a smile. "Getting old is no big deal."
Lu Mingxu pinched Pei Zhi's nose. "Isn't this all because of you? I was afraid you'd dislike me."
Pei Zhi shook her head gently, wanting to say something, but felt like she couldn't breathe.
Lu Mingxu's expression changed slightly. "What's wrong?"
Seeing Pei Zhi's face turn pale instantly, Lu Mingxu immediately pressed the call button and frantically shouted for a doctor.
A group of doctors in white coats quickly arrived, and several of them surrounded Pei Zhi to conduct an examination.
Lu Mingxu grabbed the doctor's arm: "What's wrong with her?"
"Wait a moment, we need to begin emergency treatment."
"First aid? Why do we need first aid? She's perfectly fine, why do we need first aid?"
