Pei Jingzhou said calmly, “Don’t worry, he’s alive.”

Pei You’an had never seen the ‘big world’ before. He was afraid that his small heart would not be able to take it, so he did not dare to ask further. “It’s good that he’s alive. It’s good that he’s alive.”

Pei Jingzhou looked up at Pei You’an’s frightened expression and sneered.

“That’s all you’ve got.”

Pei You’an did not dare to retort. That was indeed all he could do.

Knowing that he could not stay for the night even if he racked his brains, Pei

You’an was about to leave when Pei Jingzhou stopped him. “You’an.”

Pei You’an turned around and was overjoyed. “Brother, you agree to let me stay here for the night?”

Pei Jingzhou said, “Don’t keep dreaming of unrealistic goals at all times. You’ll only be disappointed.”

Pei You’an was dejected. “I knew it.”

Pei Jingzhou walked over and stood beside Pei You’an. “You have to plan your life well.” With that, Pei Jingzhou went to look for Li Xiwu.

Pei You’an smacked his lips and muttered to himself as he walked out, “If only I were a daughter.”

These words happened to enter Han Qianye’s ears. She added, “Such a coincidence. I just went to Country T and learned a little about the gender change there out of curiosity. If you have this thought, as your mother, I naturally have to support you and help you contact the doctor.”

Faced with his mother’s sudden enthusiasm, Pei You’an shuddered and shook his head vigorously. “No, no, no. I was just saying. I don’t have such thoughts.”

Han Qianye clicked her tongue. “What a pity. I thought I could have one more daughter and one less son.”

Pei You’an:

Night fell.

Youyou was coaxed to sleep by Auntie Lin. Li Xiwu glanced outside the door. When she returned to the master bedroom, Pei Jingzhou had just come out of the bathroom. His black bathrobe was loosely tied. As he walked, some images were faintly discernible.

Li Xiwu teased, “Fourth Brother, you did it on purpose.”

Pei Jingzhou wiped his wet hair with the towel on his shoulder and walked up to her. He asked with a smile, “On purpose?

Li Xiwu looked up at him and did not reply. She was afraid of answering him, so she changed the topic and mentioned what Han Qianye had said at the dining table tonight.

She took the towel from his hand and gestured for him to lower his head a little. She took the initiative to wipe his hair. As she did so, she said, “Auntie said that she had done a paternity test on you and Yaoyao before. I thought of something at that time. Do you want to know?”

Pei Jingzhou smiled. “If I said I didn’t want to, would you really not say it?”

Li Xiwu snorted. “If you say you don’t want to, I really won’t say it. It’s up to you to listen.”

Pei Jingzhou restrained her hand from drying his hair. He took it down and reached into the open collar of his bathrobe. “Go ahead. I’m listening.”

Li Xiwu:

Li Xiwu had almost forgotten what she was going to say when her attention was diverted.

She didn’t pull her hand away. He’d let her touch it anyway. It would be a waste not to. She pressed her palm against his hard chest, her knuckles flexing as she gently scraped her fingertips over every inch of his skin.

Pei Jingzhou grunted and looked a little bitter.

Li Xiwu stopped her fingertips and finished speaking first. “I remember that Auntie had collected my DNA before. That day, she was still recording a show and she took my lipstick. I didn’t think too much about it at that time. Later on, when I thought about it carefully, I felt that something was wrong. A bold thought even popped into my mind. Was she taking my DNA for a paternity test?”

Pei Jingzhou’s deep eyes hooked onto her. “Do you regret not asking clearly when you think about it now?

Li Xiwu admitted, ‘Yes.” Saying this ‘Yes” made her heart feel muffled. She also said, “Because there was a scene of me being pregnant in my previous dream,

I later suspected that Yaoyao might be my son. However, because the ages didn’t match, it was also because of this that I didn’t investigate very firmly. I even calmly wanted to wait for a suitable time to go to Country T to see Madam Di Xin and ask her about what happened back then. If I had been more determined back then, Yaoyao wouldn’t have suffered from this serious illness. ”

At this point, Li Xiwu’s voice gradually became choked.

Pei Jingzhou pulled her into his arms and imprisoned the back of her head with his palm. “Mom, Dad, me, you, we’re all blaming ourselves, but we have to hide these things in our hearts and do our best to make up for these shortcomings. We have to get Yaoyao back as soon as possible.”

Li Xiwu said in a muffled voice, “Yes.”

When she was lying in bed, because her emotions had fluctuated greatly just now, it was not easy to fall asleep. Pei Jingzhou’s arm was around her waist. He did not do anything and only hugged her quietly.

At first, her back was facing Pei Jingzhou. This posture made her feel extremely safe, as if she was wrapped in Pei Jingzhou. After a while, she turned to face him and whispered, “Fourth Brother, arrange for a doctor. I’ve thought it through. I want to recover my memory.”

Pei Jingzhou asked her, “Have you really thought it through?”

Li Xiwu replied, “Yes.”

The atmosphere was not quiet, but it was a little frozen. Li Xiwu naturally knew Pei Jingzhou’s concerns, but she had really thought it through. It was only a matter of time. It was better to do it earlier.

Perhaps it would be uncomfortable for a while. But now that she knew that her parents had passed away and she had found her children, all that was left of her tragic past were those memories, she would accept it.

Pei Jingzhou did not speak for a long time. Li Xiwu could not help but ask him, “Fourth Brother, when I looked at you with an unfamiliar gaze after I lost my memory, did your heart ache?”

Pei Jingzhou replied, “Rather than being trapped in pain and being muddle-headed, I want you to have a brand new life and live well.”

Li Xiwu said, “Even if I don’t love you anymore?

Pei Jingzhou’s arm around her waist gradually tightened. He said in a low voice, “It’s enough that I love you..”
