The Flower Of The High Mountain Is Pregnant With The Son Of The Sand Sculpture Ceo Chapter 33

Chapter 33 Today is Couple Underwear!

Lu Shangyan lay on the bed with his eyes closed. He regretted it now and only wanted to pretend he didn’t know Pei Yumin, but it was too late.

Under the astonished gazes of everyone present, Pei Yumin walked into the room with a spring in his step, closing the door behind him. His expression was already one of intense excitement. He rushed to the bedside in a few steps, taking advantage of Lu Shangyan having his eyes closed and unable to see him. He grabbed Lu Shangyan’s hand first, pressed his forehead against the back of his hand, and repeatedly said, “Thank you, thank you for giving me this chance to be a father, thank you.”

He looked exactly like a man kneeling beside his unconscious wife who had just given birth, weeping tears of joy.

Lu Shangyan’s fists clenched upon hearing this. He secretly wrestled with Pei Yumin, trying to pull his hand back, but Pei Yumin was clearly prepared: “Don’t move around, or you won’t be able to see the baby clearly.”

“I regret it now,” Lu Shangyan slowly opened his eyes, but his gaze didn’t fall on Pei Yumin; he just stared blankly at the ceiling. “I shouldn’t have let you in.”

Pei Yumin was an expert at playing dumb now, his ears automatically filtering out anything he didn’t want to hear. “Don’t move, let me look at the baby.”

Lu Shangyan saw the doctor next to him, even with a mask on, struggling to suppress a laugh. He just wanted to leave this troublesome place quickly and sincerely felt that this whole situation was a mistake caused by his own softheartedness. He shouldn’t have thought of letting Pei Yumin come in to look just because Pei Yumin claimed the child was half his.

Pei Yumin knew when to quit and didn’t look for too long. He only recorded a video for his collection at the end, as usual. Afterward, he quickly grabbed a tissue and helped Lu Shangyan wipe the gel off his lower abdomen.

Lu Shangyan half-sat up and glared at him, his hand hovering over his abdomen, trying to stop him, but the result was predictable. When it came to being shameless, he was never Pei Yumin’s match.

He watched Pei Yumin toss the tissue into the trash, and Pei Yumin didn’t even give him a chance to pull up his pants.

But the next second, as Lu Shangyan was sitting up, Pei Yumin leaned in and whispered in his ear, “You’re wearing the underwear I gave you.”

Lu Shangyan’s heart skipped a beat. Pei Yumin was like a cat who had successfully stolen a fish, his smug smile unstoppable. “I saw it when I was pulling up your pants just now. It has a little pufferfish on it.”

Lu Shangyan pressed his lips together. Fortunately, the doctor wasn’t looking their way, or he would have spontaneously combusted.

Yet, Pei Yumin had to continue fanning the flames: “It just so happens I’m wearing the shark ones today. Do you want to see?”

As he spoke, he actually made a move to pull down his pants right in front of Lu Shangyan.

Lu Shangyan lowered his voice to stop him: “That’s enough!”

Pei Yumin temporarily behaved, but his entire being was filled with reluctance. He was so close to showing off his and Lu Shangyan’s couple underwear.

Lu Shangyan waved his hand away and retrieved his phone, only to find many missed calls. However, the most recent one had been answered.

He looked back at Pei Yumin, who quickly said, “She told you to go back. I said you were sick and needed a few more days. She just told you to hurry back once you feel better.”

Lu Shangyan glanced at the call duration and knew Pei Yumin was hiding something. “Did she ask you for money?”

Pei Yumin couldn’t hide it even if he wanted to, so he could only nod. “But I didn’t have time to talk much before you called me in.”

Lu Shangyan didn’t regret calling him in now.

But keeping some things hidden was indeed not a solution, especially since Pei Yumin was going back with him this time. Many things couldn’t be concealed even if he wanted to, and besides, he had decided not long ago to see how far they could go.

So, after returning to the hospital room, he proactively said, “If she asks you for money, you can’t give her a single cent.”

Lu Shangyan had said this once before when he was on the verge of an emotional breakdown, grabbing Pei Yumin’s hand. Pei Yumin remembered it clearly. Even when Lu Shangyan was suffering that much, he hadn’t thought of completely cutting ties with those people.

Recalling the abusive words the woman had used to curse Lu Shangyan earlier, Pei Yumin felt a pang of heartache that made his nose sting. “Actually, I think the way they treat you means they don’t see you as family at all.”

“You’ve given them a lot of money over the years, haven’t you? You paid them back long ago for the little they did for you. You don’t need to keep being controlled by them. That way, you’ll be much more relaxed and won’t have to work yourself to death to earn money.”

If someone else had advised him this way before, he probably would have turned and walked away, thinking the person didn’t understand anything, didn’t know his difficulties, and was just standing on the sidelines giving him unsolicited advice.

But the person saying this now was Pei Yumin. Even if Pei Yumin didn’t understand everything, Lu Shangyan just knew that Pei Yumin wouldn’t just talk; Pei Yumin would help him.

Lu Shangyan nodded very slightly and said, “Mm, I know. I’ll talk to them properly when I go back this time.”

Pei Yumin swallowed the contempt he felt for those people. All that remained in his mind was Lu Shangyan’s current appearance—so obedient. “Can I take a bite out of you?”

He had spoken his mind, but under Lu Shangyan’s stunned gaze, he remained unrepentant. He thought Lu Shangyan looked even cuter like this!

Lu Shangyan didn’t know what to do for a moment because Pei Yumin was genuinely moving closer to him. He felt like he was really about to be bitten.

Just as he was hesitating whether to get angry and push him away, his phone vibrated a few more times.

When he first entered the hospital, Xia Li and Zhao Jian kept calling and texting him. It was Pei Yumin who finally answered and told them he was fine and needed more rest before they stopped. Since then, his phone hadn’t received many messages. Only occasionally did Xia Li mention coming to the hospital to see him, but because his situation was special and he was afraid Xia Li would notice something, he refused every time. After too many refusals, Xia Li stopped bringing up the topic.

But today was busy; everyone was looking for him.

Even Dong Shufan, who hadn’t contacted him in a long time, sent him a message.

After An Yun visited last time, he had been thinking about resigning. Even though he knew he and Dong Shufan were innocent, he couldn’t bring himself to go back to work, nor did he know how to face Dong Shufan. But the matter had been dragging on. He couldn’t find the right opportunity to bring it up, as it was indeed quite awkward.

He hadn’t expected Dong Shufan, who had been silent, to speak first: [I got divorced, but I was the one who made the mistake, so I can’t keep the hospital now. I’m giving you the rest of the money you’re owed. You don’t need to come back for the part-time job anymore.]

The transfer was for a thousand yuan, which was more than he was owed. Lu Shangyan hesitated about whether to accept it. He wondered if he should ask Dong Shufan to resend the correct amount, or accept it and then return a portion.

Pei Yumin, however, quickly tapped the screen twice and accepted it for him.

Lu Shangyan said, “He gave me too much.”

Pei Yumin looked completely justified. “Consider it compensation for your emotional distress. I think he gave you too little!”

Then, he took Lu Shangyan’s phone again and completely blocked Dong Shufan. “A person who is full of lies like him doesn’t deserve sympathy. Who knows if he’s counting on your soft heart right now, trying to take advantage and do something bad! Now that he’s divorced, he doesn’t have to hide his sexual orientation anymore, making it easier for him to act recklessly!”

Lu Shangyan opened his mouth, unable to say a word for a long time. In the end, he ended up laughing at himself. “Why are you so agitated? Didn’t you already block him? He won’t have a chance to do anything.”

Pei Yumin said righteously, “I get angry just thinking about what he tried to do before! Even if he didn’t succeed, I’m still angry!”

The more he spoke, the more annoyed he became. He slammed the phone onto the bed. Afterward, seeing Lu Shangyan’s expression change, he realized it was Lu Shangyan’s nearly broken phone and quickly apologized in a low voice, “I’ll buy you a new one.”

Lu Shangyan picked it up and checked. It could still turn on and off, and the screen worked. “No need.”

Pei Yumin looked at how much he treasured the phone and couldn’t help but ask, “Are you reluctant to part with the videos you’ve collected inside?”

Lu Shangyan didn’t immediately understand what he was referring to. He stared at him for a long time, watching Pei Yumin’s meaningful, wicked smile deepen. Finally, when his brow furrowed as tightly as possible, he suddenly realized what Pei Yumin meant.

He braced his hands on the bed and scooted his butt backward. His face was flushed with embarrassment—no, his entire body was like a cooked shrimp, wanting to immediately curl up.

Pei Yumin deliberately teased him. “How much did you learn from them?”

Lu Shangyan glared at him. “That’s enough!”

Pei Yumin lowered his head. “I want to learn too. Can you send them to me?”

Lu Shangyan turned his face away. “I deleted them all!”

He wanted to stop the topic, so he picked up his phone to look at train tickets. He planned to buy a ticket for five days from now. The doctor had said during the check-up that his body was fine, and aside from needing more nutrition and rest, there was nothing serious. He could be discharged tomorrow.

Pei Yumin was afraid Lu Shangyan wouldn’t take him back, so he started frequently showing goodwill. “Mom said she’ll be here with the food in about ten minutes.”

Lu Shangyan pretended not to hear. Pei Yumin asked again, “Is there anything else you want to eat? She can bring it along the way.”

“You must need a lot of things when you go back, right? Tell me, and I’ll go buy them for you?”

He chattered on for a long time. Lu Shangyan suddenly remembered something and belatedly turned his head. “An Yun hasn’t contacted me since she left last time. So, what method did she use to make Dong Shufan willing to divorce her? And based on what Dong Shufan just said, he must have done as An Yun wished and chosen to leave with nothing.”

Pei Yumin seized the opportunity and quickly said, “I told you before, I have money and power. She’s afraid of me, that’s why she didn’t dare to come looking for you again. Besides, her target was me from the start. She just wanted me to help her.”

Lu Shangyan acknowledged this and then started searching online for Dong Shufan, An Yun, and his own name. Aside from a few news reports about An Yun and Dong Shufan’s years-long relationship breaking down and choosing to divorce, there was nothing else. Even those reports were brief and didn’t reveal much.

Pei Yumin was sweating anxiously. “You still don’t believe me? I’m really powerful! Truly powerful! I’m not lying to you!”

Lu Shangyan narrowed his eyes. He had his own judgment on this matter. “Give me your phone. I want to use it.”
