Not returning home until late at night

  Bai Shan still likes it that way, with short hair to her shoulders and never dressing up flashily. Like a neighbor's daughter, she stands quietly there, a delicate jasmine flower, always emitting a faint fragrance that makes people feel relaxed.

  He has always liked Bai Su like this, different from those heavily made-up women outside. When kissing Bai Su's face, he never gets a bit of powder on him.

  Eyes without impurities, looking into that lake of eyes, can find peace in the midst of noise and chaos.

  He had thought that if he were to marry, he would want a wife like Bai Shan, someone who could bring him stability.

  So he had already proposed to the White family through his grandfather very early on, but after falling into a coma, his fiancée was returned and he was forcibly married off to another woman.

  But he never thought that Bai Shuang would...

  No one at home told him those things.

  She used to have some baby fat, now her chin is pointed and thin, her face has shrunk, her eyes look bigger than before, and she looks more haggard...

  "...When Pei Jin Cheng stood up, he felt like he had just woken up from a long sleep, his head was spinning badly, and his body was shaking. Bai Xuan had already snuggled into his arms at some point, "Jin Cheng, I'm also willing to marry you, but why doesn't Grandfather Pei agree? I also want to take care of you..."

  His large hand had unknowingly landed on the frail woman's back, and the tremors in his palm allowed him to clearly feel the sorrow bursting out of her body. When she spoke, he felt like his throat was stuffed with cotton balls wrapped around glass shards, making it painful to produce any sound, "......Little Shan, Grandfather didn't want me to be a burden to you......No one knew I would wake up......"

  "But I'd rather be dragged down by you, than not see you for a day, it's better to die... Being able to guard you, how can that be considered a burden? It's a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times better than now." The woman's sobbing voice in his arms was low and sorrowful, yet suppressed, and didn't fit in with the atmosphere of the coffee shop. Even if people's gazes fell on them, they still couldn't stop the woman's intense emotions from bursting out. She clutched at Pei Jin Cheng's sleeve, pulling it hard, releasing the emotions she had been suppressing deep down.

  Pei Jin Cheng didn't know how other men would feel if they heard such words, but he felt heartache after hearing them...

  What's more, his memory had been stuck three years ago, and it seemed like only a moment had passed. His affection for Bai Shuo hadn't dissipated, and if he had escaped from it for a while, now that he saw Bai Shuo again, those feelings became even more intense.

  Pei Jinrui paid the bill when he left, and in his heart, he secretly prayed that Bai Xue's strong medicine would be effective...

  He can tolerate Sheng Xuan taking care of a vegetative person every day, but he cannot tolerate Sheng Xuan being pressed under another man's body every day!

  Xun is a person who has very high demands on work results, and this strictness also applies to his own requirements.

  She hasn't finished work yet, and her subordinates will have to stay late with her.

  She didn't call it a day until 11 pm after overtime!

  It used to be her who was always late getting home, and Pei Jin Cheng would go to bed early, but today she had already organized all the work records, and he still hadn't returned.

  Just as she was about to make a call, Pei Li's phone came in, and Shen Xuan felt a bit nervous, standing up, politely asking, "Grandfather, it's so late, you haven't slept yet?"

  "Ah Xuan, Jin Cheng is here talking with me about something, it might be late, you go to sleep early."

  "Alright. Goodnight, Grandpa."

  "Good night."

  Pei Li hung up the phone and his gentle face suddenly sank. "A Sheng, prepare the car, go to the White family for a visit!"
