Yang Daiying looked at her son whom she had not seen for more than 20 years, and all kinds of complicated emotions surged in her heart.
"Tingyu...you...you've grown up, you really look like your father." After hesitating for a moment, she finally managed a dry opening remark.
Pei Tingyu's tone was cold and low: "Because I was lucky enough to survive, how dare you mention my father?"
Faced with her son's indifference, Yang Daiying hurriedly tried to explain: "Tingyu... Mom used to..."
"My mother died when I was four years old. You'd better not shout or recognize her randomly!" Pei Tingyu will never forget the heartless back she left him when he cried and begged her not to leave.
From that day on, the mother in his heart died.
Yang Daiying grabbed Pei Tingyu's arm and explained, "Mom has her own reasons! Your father died early, and Mom has no skills. She can't support you at all, so I gave you to Grandpa to take care of."
"Is this your reason for taking Dad's pension and finding another man less than a year after his death?"
Pei Tingyu pulled his hand back in disgust, and Shi Daiying was thrown directly off the stairs.
Pei Tingyu looked coldly at Yang Daiying who was sitting on the ground, with a cold look in his eyes.
Her embarrassment could not stir up any other emotions in his heart except hatred! Only hatred!
Yang Daiying was so frightened by Pei Tingyu's cold and imposing aura that she was speechless for a moment. It took her a long time to remember what to say.
"I gave most of your father's pension to your grandfather, and I also persuaded your uncle to take care of you. I didn't completely ignore you! You misunderstood me."
"Have you ever asked Yang Yuejin how he 'took care' of me?" Thinking back to the ten years of humiliation in Haicheng, Pei Tingyu's eyes grew even colder.
It was obvious that Yang Daiying knew nothing about Pei Tingyu's experience in Haicheng, so much so that when she mentioned her brother, she seemed a little complacent: "He is your only uncle. How can I not feel at ease with him taking care of you?"
Pei Tingyu smiled coldly. He knew that this woman was selfish and self-centered, and had no one else in her heart except herself.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have gone to Haicheng to see him for so many years, and she wouldn't have known nothing about Yang Yuejin even though he had been on the island for transformation for so long.
"Yang Daiying, I solemnly warn you today, don't show up in front of my family again! If you are willing to behave yourself, we can live in peace like strangers in the future. If you dare to come and disturb my life again, I will make your family a laughing stock in the Health Bureau's family compound." Pei Tingyu's calm and low tone revealed a chill that made people's backs shiver.
When Yang Daiying heard him mention the Health Bureau, she realized that he had already investigated her family's situation.
For some unknown reason, she felt a little uneasy. This son was not as approachable as she had imagined. On the contrary, there was always an invisible oppressive force that made her very uneasy.
She wanted to escape for the first time, but she remembered what Liu Deming had told her when she came here, that she must please Pei Tingyu, and it would be best if he could help smooth things over and get Liu Deming back to his post.
He has been married to Liu Deming for more than 20 years and feels both guilty and afraid of him.
She felt guilty for not giving birth to a son for him, causing him to be ridiculed as having no descendants.
What is frightening is that Liu Deming has become irritable since he was demoted. He often speaks ill of the mother and daughter, and sometimes even uses violence.
In order to regain her former happiness and become the director's wife again, she must make Pei Tingyu agree to help her.
"Tingyu, Mom doesn't want to bother you, but there's nothing she can do. If you're willing to do me a favor, I promise I won't come here again."
As expected, the purpose was exposed so quickly.
Although Pei Tingyu already knew that she definitely did not come to him to apologize or repent, he still felt a pang of pain in his heart.
"What do you want me to do for you?" After the last bit of hope was broken, he was finally able to face this woman as if she were a stranger.
Seeing his expression soften, Yang Daiying thought there was a chance, so she immediately stated her request: "I heard that you are an officer in the garrison. Do you have any connections in the Health Bureau? Your uncle Liu is in trouble now. Can you help smooth things over and get him back to the Finance Department?"
Pei Tingyu took out a cigarette and lit it, then listened quietly to the woman's shameless request with a sneer on his face.
"Are you done?"
"That's all I ask. Please help us since I gave birth to you!" Yang Daiying looked eager.
Pei Tingyu narrowed his eyes, exhaled a puff of smoke, and then flicked the ash on his fingertips. He said the most ruthless words in the calmest tone: "Get out! Don't let me see you again."
Seeing that she was about to be rejected again, Yang Daiying thought that if she couldn't use her son, then she might as well not have him, so she simply threw the jar and deliberately shouted loudly:
"Son, I am your biological mother after all! They say that children should not blame their parents for their mistakes. You are an officer, how can you be so cold-blooded? Do you really want to force your mother to death?"
She just wanted to attract the attention of other people in the alley.
Seeing that someone was paying attention to them and pointing at them, she cried even harder.
Pei Tingyu watched her performance coldly without saying a word. She thought she had him under control.
Sure enough, the more status a person has, the more afraid he is of being criticized.
But she obviously didn't notice Pei Tingyu's increasingly terrifying look.
With Yang Daiying's enthusiastic "shout", seven or eight people actually gathered at the door of Pei's house to watch the fun.
After the audience arrived, Yang Daiying began to perform: "A biological son doesn't care about his mother's life or death! When I gave birth to him, I was in pain for three days and three nights..."
This kind of moral kidnapping in the name of filial piety often resonates with many people.
After all, most people will become parents and it is easy for them to get involved in it, so if nothing unexpected happens, someone will soon start accusing the "unfilial son".
However, Yang Daiying covered her face with her hands and pretended to cry, while listening for a long time, but she didn't hear a word she wanted to hear.
This shouldn’t happen! What’s going on?
When he put down his hands and looked, he found that they were all looking at Pei Tingyu, their faces full of timidity, as if they wanted to say something but hesitated.
Pei Tingyu's murderous eyes were like a wolf in the wilderness, as if anyone who dared to move would be torn to pieces by his eyes.
The terrifying pressure in his eyes seemed to solidify into substance, making people feel suffocated.
"My grandson seems to be crying, let's go back..." The old lady carrying the vegetable basket couldn't bear it anymore, and when she ran, her legs and feet were more nimble than ever.
"My wife is about to give birth..." The man in the white sweatshirt greased the soles of his feet.
"I...my wife also gave birth..." The teenager ran away.
"Wait, where did you get your wife?"
In a moment, all the people in the circle ran away.
"You...why are you running?" Yang Daiying, who was sitting on the ground, was stunned.
After Pei Tingyu drove away the irrelevant people, he shot a warning look at Yang Daiying, "I've already given you a chance, but you brought this upon yourself. I hope you can bear the consequences..."
