Chapter 30 Once all physical indicators meet the standards, you can proceed...
Pei Yumin became more and more excited as he spoke, and finally stood up, looking smug as if everything was under his control.
It's almost as if the words "I am the only one who matters" are engraved on his forehead.
He patted Lu Shangyan on the shoulder: "So it's really easy for me to solve these problems, you can rest assured."
Lu Shangyan closed his slightly open mouth, unable to suppress a sneer.
Pei Yumin was about to recount his "glorious deeds" from birth to the present when he was interrupted by Lu Shangyan's short laugh, and the words "Don't be afraid, I will protect you for the rest of my life" got stuck in his throat.
He was holding it in so tightly: "I'm telling the truth! You have to believe me! I pretended to be poor before because... there was a reason! I can explain it to you properly when you're discharged from the hospital!"
As he spoke, he took out his phone again, wanting to find some photos of himself spending money like water to show him. But just as he bent down, Lu Shangyan casually placed the back of his hand on his forehead.
Pei Yumin froze, staring intently at Lu Shangyan, as if afraid that this insignificant moment of intimacy would vanish.
Lu Shangyan tilted his head slightly: "Are you sick?"
Otherwise, why would he keep talking nonsense?
Seeing the worried look in Lu Shangyan's eyes, Pei Yumin quickly became immersed in happiness and couldn't extricate herself. For a moment, she couldn't care about anything else and only wanted to seize every time and opportunity to be close to Lu Shangyan.
Even after Yuan Qingyu arrived, the invisible tail behind him was still wagging wildly. Yuan Qingyu couldn't help but take his bag and pat him twice when he saw him sticking his butt out, but he remained unmoved.
She leaned closer to look, puzzled, and found Pei Yumin smiling infatuatedly. She thought that if Lu Shangyan really agreed to be with him, he might squat on the ground every day wagging his tail and sticking out his tongue, trying to please Lu Shangyan like a golden retriever.
Yuan Qingyu rolled her eyes inwardly, then mustered all her strength to shove him aside, and placed the thermos in front of Lu Shangyan like a treasure: "Shangyan, I brought you chicken soup, drink it while it's hot."
Lu Shangyan's heart jumped instantly, and he didn't know what to do. He could only lower his head and say, "Thank you."
When he worked part-time as a waiter, he communicated well with customers and was not socially anxious in front of strangers. But for some reason, he became nervous when he knew that the person opposite him was Pei Yumin's mother.
His palms were sweaty as he slowly drank the chicken soup with a spoon. Yuan Qingyu noticed his awkwardness and, to prevent him from continuing to feel embarrassed, temporarily withdrew some of her enthusiasm and just sat there chatting with him intermittently. She mostly asked the questions, and Lu Shangyan answered with his head down.
Fortunately, after finishing a bowl of soup, Lu Shangyan was no longer so nervous.
Pei Yumin washed some grapes for him and placed them on the bedside table. When he saw the limited edition bag that Yuan Qingyu had casually placed on the table, which cost 4.5 million to acquire with additional purchases, he suddenly remembered that there was something he hadn't made clear.
So he took out his phone, took a picture of the bag and searched for it, then pushed it in front of Lu Shangyan: "Look, this bag is now priceless, it's been speculated to be worth tens of millions, and my mom just casually threw it on the table, she must be rich!"
"I'm really not lying to you. My family is really quite wealthy. I can really protect you for the rest of my life, so you don't have to be afraid of anything."
Yuan Qingyu thought he had gone mad and even wanted to smash the thermos on his head to bring him to his senses!
Pei Yumin didn't care about her disdain at all, and even gestured to Yuan Qingyu to say, "Hurry up and say it, our whole family are billionaires!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Qingyu's face was filled with panic: "Doctor! Doctor, come quickly! My son is possessed! No, my son has gone mad!"
Pei Yumin threw his phone on the bed and dragged Yuan Qingyu outside for a long talk before she finally understood. She was even more disgusted with Pei Yumin, twisting his ear and questioning him, "What have you been doing!"
The stitching, the color of the edges, the color of the strap, and even the chain on this bag are all slightly different. An ordinary person probably wouldn't notice, but he's not a prospective dentist who needs to see every nerve clearly; his eyesight is excellent.
He then thought of his cousin, whom Pei Yumin had mentioned, who was skilled at counterfeiting designer brands and making fake goods to enhance his own abilities.
Everything makes sense now.
Lu Shangyan breathed a sigh of relief, put the bag back in its place, and then searched for "Pei Yumin" on his phone.
A blank page.
This is all thanks to Ms. Yuan Qingyu. In order to provide him with a healthy and relaxed environment to grow up in, she has never let him appear in front of the media from childhood to adulthood, and has never even revealed his name. She was afraid that he would be overly scrutinized and that some reports would affect his mood, and she was also afraid that he would be targeted by some random people.
It wasn't until he graduated abroad and started working in a company to gain experience that there was some news about him, but it was still very little.
Lu Shangyan looked through the information for several minutes until his phone froze again, still without finding any useful information.
Just a second before Pei Yumin re-entered, he guessed that Pei Yumin was pretending to be a billionaire so that he could focus on recovering and not worry about An Yun coming to his door at any time.
After thinking about this, he threw his phone on the pillow and quickly lay down. Then he turned over so his back was to the door, closed his eyes, and pretended to sleep.
After this speculation came out, he didn't know how to face Pei Yumin.
...He's far too arrogant!
But he couldn't think of any other better reason.
Hearing the door open, Lu Shangyan closed his eyes even tighter. Yuan Qingyu thought he was asleep, so she quietly packed her things and, before leaving, specifically told Pei Yumin, "Be careful!"
Lu Shangyan was very glad that they didn't come around to his front, otherwise they would have seen his face turn red.
-
The next morning, Pei Yumin took the initiative to contact An Yun.
After learning what had happened, Yuan Qingyu insisted that she go along as well.
The reason she gave was simple: she was afraid that if a fight broke out, Pei Yumin wouldn't be able to fight back, and she was a black belt in Taekwondo, and she wouldn't give way just because the other party was a woman.
The two of them were prepared for this tough battle. Pei Yumin even wore an out-of-season casual loose suit, so that at least when the fight started, he could run more easily in this outfit and avoid being accidentally injured by Yuan Qingyu.
Unexpectedly, An Yun was smiling from the very first second they met, a smile that made Pei Yumin uncomfortable. He began to suspect that she was only doing this to lower his guard, and that she had actually bribed the coffee shop staff to add deadly poison to the coffee or sugar cube in front of him.
Only if they obediently follow An Yun's instructions after drinking it will she take out the antidote.
He leaned against the window, looking at An Yun with a gloomy expression, as if everything was under his control.
But the next second, Yuan Qingyu elegantly picked up her cup and took a few sips of coffee.
An Yun's smile deepened.
At this moment, Pei Yumin had only one thought in his mind: I'm doomed. Despite all my precautions, I still fell into this wicked woman's trap!
One minute, five minutes passed, and half a cup of coffee was gone, yet Yuan Qingyu remained unharmed.
Neither of them spoke first, as if whoever spoke first would be inferior.
But Pei Yumin couldn't wait. It was almost 10:30, which was Lu Shangyan's fruit time, and he had to rush back to peel an apple for him.
"Just say what you want to say directly, don't beat around the bush."
No sooner had he finished speaking than An Yun immediately said, "I want to divorce Dong Shufan and make him leave with nothing."
Yuan Qingyu's expression remained unchanged. She had already guessed what was going on since An Yun had been sitting there without saying a word.
Otherwise, given Lu Shangyan's status, she could have taken direct action without going through the trouble of visiting him to discuss cooperation. Given her personality, she probably wouldn't let go of anyone who had cheated on her, even if that person didn't have any real relationship with Dong Shufan.
An Yun looked at Yuan Qingyu: "As long as you are willing to help me, I promise that I will delete all the videos afterward and will never implicate Lu Shangyan."
Pei Yumin was in a passive position. She was afraid that An Yun would really be exposed. Although he had the ability to intercept the news immediately, the speed at which online public opinion spread was not something he could easily control. There would always be bad news that reached Lu Shangyan.
Lu Shangyan's current situation is special, and he is afraid that he will not be able to withstand the shock.
Although he felt that An Yun probably wouldn't take the risk, and that if she really angered him, she probably wouldn't have an easy time either, he couldn't afford to gamble. It would also be annoying if An Yun went to see Lu Shangyan for no reason.
Since he wasn't really keen on having Dong Shufan around Lu Shangyan anyway, he figured he might as well take this opportunity to resolve everything.
With that thought in mind, everything became clear.
Yuan Qingyu finally spoke her first words of the day: "We can help you, but your future path may not be easy."
An Yun smiled and clinked glasses with her: "When will my path become easier?"
On the way back, Yuan Qingyu sighed deeply: "Her target from the beginning was not Shang Yan, but us."
Even if Pei Yumin was stupid, he could see it: "Isn't she afraid of going too far by scheming against others like this!"
Yuan Qingyu said, "If she were afraid of these things, she wouldn't be President An now."
Back then, An Yun's family's company was just a small, insignificant company. Her father, in order to climb the social ladder, was determined to have her marry a rich man to help the family, regardless of the fact that the man was a full twenty-seven years older than An Yun.
The engagement ceremony was planned for two months, and An Yun had been very compliant until the day of the ceremony, when she ran away. When her father found her, she had just registered her marriage with Dong Shufan.
At the time, Dong Shufan was just a junior intern doctor with nothing. Her father couldn't profit from her marriage, so she didn't need to endure being looked down upon by her husband's family for cooperation. Instead, she could bring her husband into the family home and control him. In this way, she could focus on everything.
She saw these opportunities and used the promise of opening a hospital for Dong Shufan as leverage to marry him, with the intention of having a son as soon as possible.
An Yun's father was furious, and An Yun's fiancé was also furious. In the end, in order to appease him, An Yun's father pushed out An Yun's younger sister, who was four years younger than her. At that time, the younger sister had only been an adult for a few days and was so scared that she kept crying.
But she was much weaker than An Yun and in the end she didn't dare to really resist. After getting engaged to that old man, she moved into his house. But after a year and a half, he got tired of her and, taking advantage of the fact that they hadn't registered their marriage, broke off the engagement and threw her back to him.
She harbored a deep resentment towards An Yun, but An Yun seemed to be cold-blooded to the core. Not long after she returned, An Yun used some methods to make her behave again.
An Yun joined the company and climbed the ranks step by step. Under her leadership, the company grew bigger and bigger. An's father gradually valued her and wanted her to be her brother's right-hand woman so that her brother could have an easier time when he handed over the company in the future.
Over the years, she had kept her ambition hidden, but never her strength. Until her father got old and could no longer make decisions, last year she sent her own brother abroad and used his involvement in an economic case to ensure he could never return.
By the time An's father discovered it, it was too late.
An Yun spent almost a year clearing away other obstacles in the company, and now only Dong Shufan, a disgusting piece of trash, is left by her side.
She became pregnant and gave birth to a boy shortly after getting married. After that, she separated from Dong Shufan under the pretext of work. She even opened the hospital she had promised Dong Shufan in a neighboring city. The two rarely saw each other. An Yun was willing to give him benefits when she was using him, but now she has to get it all back.
She discovered Pei Yumin's powerful backing by chance. As long as the Pei family was willing to lend a hand, it would probably be much easier than if she did it herself. Moreover, people in the circle would know more or less that the Pei family had helped her. Even if she didn't rely on the big tree, but only had one foot in its shadow, she could still find a way to use its strength to climb higher.
This was entirely beneficial to her, which is why she deliberately sought out Lu Shangyan and deliberately appeared in front of Pei Yumin.
-
Pei Yumin handed the peeled apple to Lu Shangyan, gritting her teeth as she complained, "Neither of these two is any good. Their methods are truly brilliant; they even managed to get their hands on our Shangshang!"
Lu Shangyan snapped out of his daze, glanced at him, and slowly took a bite of his apple.
Pei Yumin said again, "Don't be afraid. No matter how clever she is, she can't beat me."
Lu Shangyan assumed he was just pretending to be relaxed because he didn't want him to worry, so he looked him in the eyes sincerely and said, "Thank you, but if it really can't be resolved, then we should call the police."
Before Pei Yumin could say anything more, Dr. Wu came in and told Lu Shangyan that he would need to undergo another thorough examination the next day: "Don't eat or drink anything tomorrow morning. We'll talk about everything after the examination is over."
Lu Shangyan nodded and agreed. He stayed in the hospital for four or five days, with Pei Yumin by his side every day. He enjoyed a few days of relaxation and almost forgot that he still had many worries that required him to make a decision quickly.
Dr. Wu gave some more instructions, and after Pei Yumin saw him off, they chatted for a while longer. When he came back, he was a completely different person.
Her expression even seemed a little aggrieved and pitiful: "Uncle Wu just said that if you don't want this child, it's better to have the surgery as soon as possible. After the check-up tomorrow, as long as all your physical indicators are within the normal range, you can have the surgery to remove the child."
Lu Shangyan couldn't eat any more apples.
Pei Yumin didn't want to put him in a difficult position, but there were many questions he had to ask: "So, have you thought it through? Do you want to stay, or not?"
