She walked over and was about to say something to comfort him when she heard Pei Ziheng ask her, "If she promises to give you one million, will you really sell your father?"

Shen Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, thinking that this was what she was angry about, and she couldn't help but play a trick on him.

She nodded seriously, "Sell it, why not?"

Pei Ziheng was so angry that he exploded.

Shen Mingzhu described her life with longing after she became rich. "When we have a million, we will buy a big mansion, plant big seeds in a big garden, and grow big flowers. Then we will find two, no, three nannies to serve us. You can do whatever you want, buy whatever you want, and eat whatever you want. Isn't this a wonderful life?"

Pei Ziheng stared at her blankly, his anger completely shattered by the word "we".

So, even if she lives a good life in the future, she will take him with her?

"I know you can't bear to leave your father, but you can change your mindset and think of him as working outside. Working on a ship is also working, selling your body is also working. The one million is the money he earned from working. He uses the money he earned from working to support us. Isn't that normal? The only difference is that his work environment has changed, but he is still your father. You can still go to him when you miss him. Doesn't it make sense if you think this way?"

Pei Ziheng couldn't think of how to refute for a moment.

Shen Mingzhu asked again, "What style of building do you like? Chinese? European? Or American?"

Pei Ziheng was horrified to find that when the woman asked him, he was actually thinking about the style of the ocean-view building.

This woman is so poisonous, and she poisoned him badly! "I won't sell my father for a million, no matter how much money you give me. You stupid woman, you want to sell my father just for a million, do you know that I..."

I can make many millions in the future, and I can buy you ten of the mansions you like.

Shen Mingzhu didn't know what her stepson was thinking, and asked him with curiosity and expectation, "Do you know what's wrong with you?"

Pei Ziheng slowly calmed down and returned to his usual cold and arrogant attitude, "I will buy a mansion with my own ability."

"Well... well, I won't sell your father anymore, no matter how much money you offer. I'm waiting for you to grow up and make money to buy a mansion. It's a deal, and we'll stick to it for a hundred years."

You are such a grown-up, but you act like a child.

Looking at the little finger hooked by Shen Mingzhu, Pei Ziheng felt extremely disgusted in his heart, but he did not refuse with his hand.

Shen Mingzhu smiled like a wolf grandmother, but she didn't know that high-end hunters often exist in the form of prey.

——

I don't know if she was scared away by the "one million", but Wang Xiuzhu didn't come to her house to make trouble for a while. Instead, Wang Huizhen sent her and Pei Ziheng food and daily necessities every now and then, which made Shen Mingzhu grateful and even less disgusted with Wang Xiuzhu.

As the Spring Festival approached, Pei Yang's fleet finally sent back news and docked two days later.

Shen Mingzhu and Pei Ziheng were both very happy.

Pei Ziheng, in particular, ate half a bowl more rice than usual, his steps became lighter, and he even talked more.

Shen Mingzhu saw it all, but felt extremely complicated.

It is undeniable that she had a good impression of Pei Yang, otherwise she would not have been so impulsive as to follow Pei Yang to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage certificate torn up.

But it is not certain how deep her feelings for Pei Yang are.

Therefore, she might be able to let go of Pei Yang's death after a while of feeling sad.

But Pei Ziheng was different. Pei Yang was his only relative in the world and also his father. She couldn't imagine what a blow Pei Yang's death would bring to Pei Ziheng. It might even be an injury that could not be healed in his lifetime.

On the endless deep blue sea, a huge red cargo ship was moving steadily forward. Its pointed bow broke through the water, creating white waves on both sides of the hull and leaving a long white tail on the sea.

Many crew members who were off duty stood on the deck, looking in the direction they were heading. Their faces, which were tinted wheat-colored by the sun and sea water, were filled with longing and joy for returning home.

"It's finally here. This time I can go home for the Spring Festival. I haven't had a New Year's Eve dinner at home for two years."

"Oh, you look like you're missing your wife, right?"

"I don't even want to marry. People like us are always on the sea all year round. How can we have the chance to find a woman?"

Everyone was laughing and joking around, and someone noticed Pei Yang who was silent.

"Brother Yang, what are you thinking about? Are you thinking about your wife too?"

"Yes, Brother Yang, we haven't met my sister-in-law yet. You must let us know in advance when you are going to hold the wedding banquet. We will go to support you and see if my sister-in-law is beautiful."

"It's none of your business whether it's beautiful or not."

Pei Yang cursed with a smile, but the oval white face appeared in his mind.

Beauty is naturally extremely beautiful.

She is alone at home with her child, and I don't know how she is doing.

Although the flight went smoothly, it returned five days later than expected, resulting in his vacation being shortened to four days. It took two days to go to Fengcheng and back, so he could only stay for one day at most.

I don't know if she will be angry.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

But that's his job, and he also wanted to stay home and spend more time with his children and her, but the work was arranged in advance and he had no way to refuse or change it.

However, after the next flight, he will have two months of vacation, and then he can spend more time with the mother and son.

Pei Yang was planning silently in his mind.

The freighter was scheduled to dock at 4 p.m., but after lunch, Pei Ziheng couldn't wait to ask Shen Mingzhu to take him to Pier 2 to wait.

The weather in Xicheng Port is very good today, with clear skies and warm sunshine. Although the temperature is not low, the wind is strong on the dock and you will still feel chilly if you stand for a long time.

Worried that Pei Ziheng would catch a cold if exposed to the wind for too long, Shen Mingzhu took him outside for a long walk under the pretext of buying food. When they returned to Pier No. 2, they saw a red cargo ship slowly approaching on the sea in the distance.

Pei Ziheng even threw away the hot soy milk in his hand and ran towards the freighter with his short legs.

Shen Mingzhu picked up the hot soy milk on the ground and trotted to catch up.

Woo——

With a long whistle, the giant freighter finally docked.

Pei Ziheng held onto the railing, which was taller than others, and looked forward to the freighter, his little face full of anxiety.

Shen Mingzhu patted his head soothingly, "Don't worry, the ship has docked, and you will be able to see your father soon."

As soon as she finished speaking, the freighter's watertight door opened.

The crew members walked out of the watertight door one by one and then went down to the dock via the gangway.

In addition to Shen Mingzhu and her son, there were also some other family members who came to pick up the crew members. The scene was very lively and warm.

"dad!"

Just as Shen Mingzhu was distracted by watching a young couple being affectionate, Pei Ziheng's loud shout suddenly rang in her ears.

She subconsciously turned her head and saw a tall man standing in front of the gangway, looking at her and Pei Ziheng, his handsome and resolute face full of astonishment and surprise.

Shen Mingzhu was just about to take Pei Ziheng over when suddenly a red shadow passed by her and rushed into Pei Yang's arms.

Shen Mingzhu: “…”

Her first thought was: This man is dirty and I don’t want him anymore.
