Why Did My Ex-Wife’S Aunt Treat Me Like That? Chapter 44
byChapter 44 Chapter 44 “What a coincidence.”
At night, when Qin Wei came over again, Yuan Yi returned to his ward.
“When I just passed the nurse’s desk, I found out that you had another full-body checkup. What’s wrong? If you say you’re starting to cherish your life now, it doesn’t show it at all in your behavior.”
Yuan Yi ate the apple with a bang and smiled nonchalantly: “I still cherish my life. Now that I am finally done with those things at home, I have to cherish my life.”
Qinwei handed her the ice cream he bought on the road: “It’s embarrassing to say, when will you get rid of your ice cream addiction in this winter? I don’t see you wearing long johns, but I urge you to go to Director Cheng.”
“Oh, when you said that, I really thought of business…” Yuanyi quickly took out his mobile phone and ordered a few pairs of thick velvet pants for delivery, “What did the company say?”
“According to what you said, it is better to pay a large sum of money than to ask for help. This is the red envelope given by the director to express condolences to you. I wish you a speedy recovery.” Qin Wei handed over the red envelope in the bag. Yuanyi immediately opened it and took a look, squinting his eyes with satisfaction.
No matter how small a mosquito’s legs are, they are still meat, and she won’t pick them as long as it’s money.
Peng Cheng still needs to undergo inpatient physical therapy for a few days. Although Yuanyi also wants to let Peng Cheng stay a few more days in order to escape the unreasonable demands of the Peng family, she also knows that the days in the hospital are boring.
Decision makers like Peng Cheng, who maintain the operation of the entire company, will not waste too much time here.
After chatting with Peng Cheng, Yuan Yi was thinking about one thing.
Peng Cheng had always been aware of He Xun’s alienation, so when he talked about it, Peng Cheng was not surprised.
Peng Cheng asked her: “What was the real reason why you suddenly decided to listen to your mother and be with He Xun.”
The real reason is actually easy to understand.
“Lack of money.” Plus He Xun also showed interest in her at that time, everything went very smoothly.
“Because of lack of money and longing for a luxurious life after marriage, you stayed with He Xun for so long?”
Well, that’s right. That’s how Peng Cheng spoke. This was indeed her goal at that time.
No matter before or now, Yuan Yi is a person who is a bit resigned to death and has superb execution ability towards his goals.Moreover, she had not lost contact with her family at that time, and there was really no money in her bank card for herself.
So she kept following Sun Xueyu’s wishes and spent so long by He Xun’s side that she could no longer look back.
After participating in He Xun’s plan, she has essentially been assimilated into the same person as He Xun.
Peng Cheng asked her again: “But you are no longer short of money and no longer need to be by He Xun’s side. Your goal has been achieved.”
The next sentence says: “Then when you finish repaying your kindness -”
“Will you leave my side?”
No.
Really not.
Although Yuan Yi imagined that he would live a carefree life after everything here was over, there was no conflict between living a carefree life and showing concern for Peng Cheng from time to time.
“…This is different, and the application hasn’t been completed yet, as we said before.” Yuan Yi retorted subconsciously without thinking. She felt that Peng Cheng’s logic was very wrong. How could He Xun be compared with the two words Peng Cheng.
No matter what, Yuanyi chose Peng Cheng resolutely and resolutely.
Peng Cheng said: “You don’t stay with me for money, but just for a simple repayment of gratitude. You are so kind to me, which makes me feel that I have saved your life.”
In fact, Peng Cheng was stupid at this time. She asked herself that she didn’t know Yuanyi well enough, after all, the time of contact was here.
But she knew that Yuan Yi had a lively personality now, and because she didn’t want the conversation between her and Yuan Yi to seem too heavy, she chose a way to explain it that sounded more lively.
But unexpectedly, after saying these words, Yuan Yi lowered his eyes silently, as if he was struck in an instant.
After a while, he said: “For me, it’s about the same.”
Peng Cheng saved her life.
Maybe more than once.
After Qin Wei left at night, Yuan Yi took his computer and thought about whether to open the audio that was collected.
When Qin Wei passed the information to her, she was anxious to find Peng Cheng, so she didn’t listen yet.
The words of Peng Cheng and He Xun have put together a rough idea of the Peng family and their complicated relationships, and this audio may become the last clue.
She took a deep breath and put on her headphones.
Inside is a human voice that has been processed by AI to become noisy and distorted. It can only be vaguely heard as the audio of a report.
“A few years ago, there was an incident in Jiuhua Mountain where a 17-year-old woman fell off a cliff. The victim was a 17-year-old woman. The information was blocked in a timely manner. In order to protect the privacy of the deceased, the identity was not disclosed to the public. However, according to insiders, there were two major changes in the Peng Group on the third day after the incident. The former chairman Peng Fei suddenly retired. When he was photographed, he showed up at the funeral parlor. He was wearing a foundation-laying jewelry on his chest. It is speculated that the young woman who fell off the cliff was Peng Fei’s beloved daughter who was about to come of age.
However, two months later, Peng Fei personally refuted the rumors, and the matter ended.Only two years later, the Peng Group officially announced its heir, Peng Cheng, and He Min, who originally managed the group, withdrew gracefully.”
After Yuan Yi finished listening, he forgot to take off his earphones and just stayed in front of the computer.
My head was spinning wildly.
He Min is He Xun’s father. Even if Peng Zihui marries him, Peng Zihui is still the leader in the family.He Min joined the group openly, but Peng Zihui should be managing it secretly.
So that’s it… my beloved daughter.It’s my sister who passed away.Is there something shady about this matter? Why does everyone in the Peng family avoid talking about it.
No, no, Mrs. Peng’s attitude was not that. Mrs. Peng was blaming Peng Cheng, so when she punished her again and again, she made her kneel in the ancestral hall of Jiuhua Mountain, the Jiuhua Mountain where her sister fell to her death.
She seemed to have found the crux of Peng Cheng’s psychology.
Why.
From Peng Cheng’s tone, she could tell that Peng Cheng had a close relationship with her sister, and there was a hint of sadness in his words.
She felt that she must have overlooked something.
Mrs. Peng has such a vicious heart that she makes Peng Cheng run up every day on her sister’s moon festival. Not only does she have to run but she also kneels, using her already bad legs.
I have heard that filial piety is outsourced, and this is the first time I heard that love for daughters is also outsourced. It is indeed a big family that has made a fortune by plucking wool.
This year it’s because I discovered it.
In those years when she didn’t realize it, what was Peng Cheng thinking about every late night? How did her sister fall? She stayed in Jiuhua Mountain for so long every time.
No wonder the doctors said she was numb, and Bi Youshan said there was nothing she could do about Peng Cheng.
These bad memories were carved in Peng Cheng’s mind over and over again, how could she get better?
This is not another kind of mental abuse.
At this moment, Yuan Yi felt chills running through her body. For the first time, she felt that it was a bit ridiculous for her to say that she wanted Peng Cheng to face the injury.
She had never truly experienced the pain Peng Cheng had suffered over the years, but she just thought she could understand it.
Yuan Yi sat in his room for a long time.
By the time I came to my senses, it was already very late and the lights outside had been turned off.She closed her notebook suddenly, put on her coat, and put on her big school bag.
The coat was still the one Peng Cheng put on himself before. It had been washed and dried and had a sweet smell.
As soon as she came out, she was caught by the head nurse on patrol: “Hey, the lights are out, where are you going? Doctor Bi has gone to the next ward. She asked you not to run around.”
What the head nurse didn’t say was that Dr. Bi also said that this patient named Yuan Yi might be at a higher risk than the patients in the next ward, so don’t do anything to stop her if necessary.
It is still necessary to stop it symbolically, based on the premise of a good doctor-patient relationship in all aspects.
Yuan Yi turned his head and said friendly: “I’m going to find Director Cheng on the first floor. Do you know Director Cheng? He was sent in with me.”
She laughed so horribly that the head nurse’s hand had already helped her press the elevator: “Visitors are not encouraged in the ward.”
It’s just a visit, it’s not a spam, and we haven’t contracted an infectious disease yet, so why not?To be honest, Yuan Yi really wanted to pass on his incredible physical fitness to Peng Cheng.
After hj finished speaking, he ran away quickly.Anyway, it was only one floor, so she ran away that night.
While Bi Youshan was not here, she wanted to do something big.But when Yuan Yi came to Peng Cheng’s door, he was dumbfounded.
Because Peng Cheng was not in the ward.
It was now 10:55 Beijing time, and it was hard to guess where Peng Cheng had gone without telling her.
Yuan Yi quickly took the elevator downstairs, hailed a taxi outside and got in: “Master, Jing’an Cemetery.”
After all, he was the master soliciting customers near the hospital. As expected, he was well-informed and didn’t say no to leaving. After getting in the car, he saw Yuan Yi’s heavy face in the rearview mirror and said, “My condolences, little girl.”
Yuan Yi said: “The person has not left.”
“Sorry, sorry! Let’s go now.”
The taxi suddenly started moving.
Yuan Yi sighed, turned on his phone and sent Peng Cheng a message: [Why aren’t you in the ward?】
She originally wouldn’t reply to her because of Peng Cheng, but Peng Cheng actually replied in seconds: [I’m coming out for some air]
Is it breathable? It’s really refreshing.There are few living people in that place and the air is very fresh.
Peng Cheng now said that he was just going out for some fresh air, which made Yuan Yi feel like a wife who suddenly discovered that her husband was cheating on her. The wife called to check on her husband and asked: Where have you been?
The husband said in a panic: “I’m working overtime.”
The wife, who knew full well, angrily rushed to catch the adulterer, and was about to go to the grave of her marriage.
Speaking of graves, she wanted to go to a cemetery, which was pretty much the same.But Yuan Yi was not filled with anger, she was there to help.
Damn it, how could she put herself and Peng Cheng into such a bad relationship – no, she and Peng Cheng were divine benefactors and AAA repaying their kindness to the snail girl Xiao Yuan, absolutely not that.
The driver didn’t know what he had misunderstood, and he was driving all the way. Yuanyi’s physical fitness was temporarily poor, otherwise he could still be the driver’s navigator for a period of time.When Yuanyi felt that all the internal organs were about to change their positions, it finally arrived.
Thank God, she is still alive.
After Yuanyi paid the money, he quickly got out of the car, closed his schoolbag strap, and regained his consciousness.
It was still early today, so Yuan Yi did not enter the cemetery immediately. Instead, he searched around the parking lot and did not see the Bentley that President Peng Cheng drove later.
She walked to the street outside the cemetery, and walked along the street to the funeral parlor at the intersection. The two places were next to each other, and she didn’t know who was convenient.
Yuanyi went to the supplies store to buy some things for the sacrifice, and hurried back.She ran like a gust of wind and drifted in.
Lin Shaoyan, who was still in the office at the door, saw her and immediately chased her out: “This is Miss Yuan! Miss Yuan!”
This Miss Yuan ran too fast, as if she had something important to do, and she was carrying a huge bag.
Lin Shaoyan muttered: “Why does Miss Yuan have to go to the front and back with Director Cheng every time…”
The granularity is too inaccurate.
At this moment, Peng Cheng had just climbed more than ten steps.
Under the cold moonlight, she was wearing a black loose coat, carrying a bag behind her back, and using her hands to support her trekking poles.
Peng Cheng walked slowly. She knew where her body’s limits were, so she wouldn’t stop, even though she was slow.
Even if I tell myself many times in my heart, everything is an illusion.But the pain in her body was so real that she began to feel it slowly when she stepped onto the cold bluestone steps.
Even though she was standing, Peng Cheng felt that her knees had been kneeling on those steps and never got up.
So the chill was biting, reminding her all the time of what she had experienced and what had happened.
Originally, Peng Cheng no longer wanted to change all this.
But now, she has new hope in her heart. Although the light is still very small, she also wants to try.
She has walked the road from the cemetery to the mountainside more than once or twice. She has been walking this way over the years.
So she felt that she was used to it and would not stop because of a little pain. Her body had spontaneously ignored the pain, similar to how a person’s five senses would be closed under extreme conditions.
Today, she actually felt pain.
Even a little bit of pain can be unbearable.
“Peng Cheng, Peng Cheng…” You are really finished.
She stopped, spread her palms, and stared at the hiking pole in her hands for a long time. She straightened the corners of her lips helplessly, unwilling to say anything more.
When Bi Youshan and Li Shuangni teased her, they always called her in this tone.
Now Peng Cheng laughs at herself, when did she become so fragile?
Someone was feeling sorry for her, which actually caused her long-standing numbness to gradually disintegrate.
She cares about this heartache, but she is also afraid that the person who loves her will leave.
Peng Cheng thought that the blanket Yuan Yi gave him would be used later, but now it seems that he overestimated his pain tolerance.
She took out her phone and saw that Yuan Yi had not replied to her, and she didn’t know whether she believed the nonsense she said.
Peng Cheng was not good at lying, but Yuan Yi cooperated with her and did not expose her.
Yuan Yi didn’t want her to come to Jiuhua Mountain again, but she had something she had to do, so she came anyway, secretly.
Peng Cheng was about to put down his schoolbag and take out the blanket from the bag when he easily picked up the heavy backpack with one hand.
Her gaze froze, and then moved inch by inch from Yuan Yi’s hand, as if to make sure it was not an illusion. After a long time, it finally fell on Yuan Yi’s face.
Yuan Yi smiled softly at her, and even the moonlight falling on her seemed to be shining.
“What a coincidence, I also want to breathe.” Yuan Yi put Peng Cheng’s backpack on his chest in two clicks, his voice filled with joy, without any trace of anger or accusation, “I promised to follow you, but luckily I didn’t lose him.”
