After entering, Mother Lin lay on the bed with her eyes closed. She had lost a lot of weight. She no longer had the domineering look of the past and was dying.
"My mother has breast cancer, which is in the advanced stage and requires chemotherapy every week," Lin Xiaojie said in a low voice.
While the two were talking, Mother Lin woke up and said in a weak voice: "Dong Lai, you are here" and tried her best to smile.
"Mom..." Although it was difficult to speak, Pei Donglai still tried his best to cooperate with Lin Xiaojie, just like Lin Xiaojie cooperated with him.
Mother Lin signaled Pei Donglai to come closer to her. After approaching the bed, Mother Lin said, "Xiaojie, please go out first."
After Lin Xiaojie went out, Mother Lin said slowly: "Donglai, I'm sorry for you. I haven't looked at you since you married Xiaojie. At that time, I was so high-spirited that I wanted Xiaojie to marry You. Money man, in fact, I am also selfish and want to take advantage of my daughter. Now I think clearly, Xiaojie should be the one to decide what kind of person to find, not me, a selfish mother. I am responsible for your divorce with Xiaojie. Yes, don’t blame Xiaojie, it’s all my fault..."
Pei's mother started crying as she spoke, while Pei Donglai stood by and didn't know what to do. Sigh: When a person is about to die, his words are also good.
"Mom, don't be sad, take good care of yourself, it's all over," Pei Donglai comforted.
Mother Lin wiped away her tears and said with a smile: "Yes, it's all over. Now that you and Xiaojie are remarried, I'm relieved. I heard that you just came back from Tibet. Please move back."
Then, Pei's mother struggled to take out a bank card from under the pillow and handed it to Pei Donglai, "Donglai, there is 5 million yuan here. You take it. After I leave, you take Xiaojie out of here and go to your hometown or Any other place will do, but you must leave Jiangcheng."
Pei Donglai was shocked. He didn't know where Lin's mother got the 5 million yuan. Since she could give him so much, she must have given Lin Xiaojie no less than this amount.
Pei's mother has been working for nearly 30 years, and her salary income is probably less than 1 million yuan. You don't have to think about this money, it must be gray income.
"Mom, I can't take this money, please give it to Xiaojie."
"Dong Lai, don't worry, this money is clean, take it."
Pei Donglai still didn't answer the card. Mother Lin rang the bell. After a while, the nurse came.
Nurse: "Auntie, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"I'll just get out of bed and move around for a while."
Nurse: "This won't work. It will take a few days."
"Just two minutes, please."
Mother Lin was so insistent that the little nurse could no longer stop her, "Auntie, just two or three minutes."
"I won't embarrass you."
Pei Donglai and the little nurse helped Mother Lin out of bed. After getting out of bed, Mother Lin said: "Little nurse, please go out first. I have something to talk to my daughter-in-law alone."
After the nurse went out, Mother Lin suddenly knelt in front of Pei Donglai.
Pei Donglai was startled and said, "Mom, get up quickly and tell me if you have anything to say."
No matter how hard Pei Donglai tried, Mother Lin wouldn't get up, so Pei Donglai had no choice but to kneel down.
"Donglai, I can see that you still have Xiaojie in your heart. After I leave, Xiaojie will only have you as a relative in this world. If you don't agree to me, I won't die in peace."
After finishing speaking, Mother Lin burst into tears.
Lin Xiaojie and the little nurse heard it outside the door, and hurriedly pushed the door open and saw the two kneeling opposite each other.
The nurse and Lin Xiaojie hurriedly pulled Mother Lin to get up, but helplessly, Mother Lin refused to get up.
Pei Donglai lowered his head and remained silent.
The little nurse looked at Pei Donglai with disdain and said, "The patients are like this, how can you be your son-in-law? It's unfilial."
"Mom, I promise to take care of Xiaojie."
Mother Lin was willing to get up after hearing what Pei Donglai said. After returning to the hospital bed, the nurse explained her situation and left.
Mother Lin put her daughter's hand on Pei Donglai's and said with tears in her eyes: "Donglai, I will leave Xiaojie to you. After I leave, you take her away from here, do you understand?"
Then Mother Lin took out the card again and said, "Take it, it's clean, don't worry, the password is your birthday."
At the last moment, Mother Lin finally remembered Pei Donglai's birthday.
Pei Donglai could only accept it temporarily.
"When you should go to work, go to work. Don't waste your time on me. That's all I will do," Pei's mother said slowly.
Lin Xiaojie was sad: "Mom..."
Mother Lin: "Go out, I'm going to bed."
After coming out of the ward, Pei Donglai gave Lin Xiaojie his bank card.
Lin Xiaojie refused to accept it, "My mother gave it to you, I can't take it."
"I don't need it. Just take it. Don't worry. Since I promised your mother to take care of you, I will definitely do it."
Lin Xiaojie refused to take it at all. In the end, Pei Donglai was busy picking up Zhang Yutong from get off work, so he could only take it away temporarily.
Arriving at the door of Starlight Hotel, Pei Donglai sent a message: Baby, I'm here.
After a while, Zhang Yutong replied: Sorry, Donglai, we have a meeting and may be late.
Pei Donglai: It's okay, I'll wait for you.
Zhang Yutong came over with a red-lipped emoticon.
Half an hour later, Zhang Yutong came out, "How are you? Are you busy at work?"
"It's okay, quite fulfilling."
"Let's go eat".
The two came to a Western restaurant and ordered red wine.
"Donglai, what are you busy with today?"
"I'm not busy. I'm resting today," Pei Donglai thought. After Lin's mother left, he could confess to Zhang Yutong. He promised Lin's mother to take care of Lin Xiaojie, and they could get along as brother and sister after the two got the divorce certificate.
After dinner, Zhang Yutong said: "Come from the east, let's walk home along the river."
"What about the car?"
"You don't drink anymore? How can you drive? I just called someone here."
When the two of them walked out of the restaurant, they saw a young man with a pen-shaped head standing at the door. He looked heroic and looked like he had been a soldier.
"Hello, Miss," the young man called Zhang Yutong respectfully.
"This is Xiao Hou."
"Hello, Mr. Pei."
After Xiao Hou drove away, Pei Dong came and said, "Is this your bodyguard?"
Zhang Yutong smiled slightly, "You are my bodyguard, idiot. Xiao Hou is my driver."
"So your parents know about us?"
"I didn't say it, but someone must have said it."
"Yufei?"
"It's not her. My dad has a lot of spies. Yufei and I have been living under his surveillance since we were young."
It seems that children from rich families are not that easy to be children. It is very uncomfortable to be monitored by their parents all day long.
Children from poor families are free, but they have no money, and each has its own difficulties.
"Dong Lai, when do you plan to meet my parents?"
This question stopped Pei Donglai. In fact, he wanted to marry Zhang Yutong right now, but his wallet was empty. How could he marry a rich girl?
Even if you don't want to be rich, you should at least have your own house in Jiangcheng. This is the most basic condition.
Now Pei Donglai is still living in Zhang Yutong's house. He has not paid the rent, but only handed in his homework. The car is also driven by Zhang Yutong. He is just like the pretty boy kept by Zhang Yutong. How can he have the face to meet his parents?
"Yutong, when I earn enough money to buy a house, I will go to your house to propose marriage."
"Do you want me to lend it to you?"
"No, if I don't have the ability, I would rather give up."
"I don't agree." Zhang Yutong raised his mouth.
"Don't worry, I will work hard to marry you," Pei Donglai comforted.
