Oh no! His rural wife is sweeter than a peach!

After dinner, we ate snacks and chatted for a long time. Around nine o'clock in the evening, I said goodbye to my family and left.

Pei Cong and his wife escorted them to the elevator.

Bluebell hugged Deer Branch tightly, reluctant to part, as if she wished she could go home with her.

Pei Cong pulled her back.

They agreed to meet again in two days.

The hustle and bustle faded, and the private room became quiet and deserted.

Pei Luo sat obediently on the guest sofa, waiting for his parents to return.

He felt a little uneasy, wondering if they would blame him for coming without prior notice.

Hearing the footsteps approaching, his nerves tensed up.

"Pei Luo,"

Lanling walked over to him. "Why did you suddenly come over without telling us beforehand?"

Without blaming him, she simply asked him in a soft voice.

Pei Luo lowered her eyes. "I heard you weren't feeling well, so I came to check on you."

"Yes, Mom is fine. Mom isn't feeling unwell."

Lanling added, "Take a plane back tomorrow morning. I remember you have a lot of classes on Monday, so don't let it interfere with your studies."

He just arrived and you already want him to go back?

Pei Luo raised her eyes somewhat timidly, "Mom, can I stay for two more days? I've already asked my advisor for leave."

He didn't mean anything by it; he just wanted to spend more time with his mother.

Just as Lanling was about to refuse his request, her gaze fell upon Pei Cong walking toward the dining table. He went to the spot where Lu Luozhi had just sat, bent down, and looked around as if searching for something.

This strange behavior puzzled her, so she went over and asked, "Honey, what are you doing?"

What are you doing?

"It's nothing, I just wanted to confirm a few things."

Pei Cong didn't tell her beforehand because he didn't want her to have too much hope.

The feeling of going from extreme hope to deep despair is unbearable.

He didn't want her emotions to fluctuate too much, as it wouldn't be good for her mental health.

found it.

Pei Cong was secretly delighted when he found a long hair on the ground under the chair.

This is from the deer cassia branch.

He originally intended to return it, but if he couldn't find the hair, he would just take the tableware instead.

It seems that God is on his side.

"husband?"

Lanling was even more puzzled when she saw him wrap the hair in a tissue.

What are you doing?

Pei Cong didn't respond to her. "I'm going out for a bit later."

"By the way, since Pei Luo is already here, why don't you let him stay for a couple of days and keep you company so you can relax? Also, let him get to know Luo Zhi and the others better. Our two families might need to visit each other more often in the future, so it's good for him to get acquainted with everyone first."

Lanling glanced at him, then at Pei Luo, who sat there silently, but this reason successfully convinced her.

"All right."

She finally agreed to let Pei Luo stay for two more days, which finally put Pei Luo's mind at ease.

He was really afraid she wouldn't agree.

"You guys go back to your rooms first, I'll be back later."

After giving his instructions, Pei Cong hurriedly left the private room.

Bluebell's doubts deepened.

Pei Cong's every move seemed a bit abnormal.

What exactly does he want to do?

Lanling glanced at Pei Luo sitting there and called him softly, "Pei Luo, let's go back to the room."

Nodding, Pei Luo followed her mother at a leisurely pace.

As the elevator ascended, Lanling noticed his continued silence and finally spoke up, "Are you bothered by how nice Mom is to Luozhi?"

Pei Luo quickly shook her head, "No, I, I just..."

I'm just a little envious of her.

She seems to be able to easily get all her attention.

Searching for her sister has taken up most of her time, leaving very little for him, her son.

"Mom, she..."

Pei Luo asked cautiously, "She's actually... she's my older sister, right?"

He lowered his eyes, staring at the elevator floor, his voice soft and low, "You say she's your goddaughter, but are you just saying it on purpose for me to hear?"

Why do you think that way?

Lanling gave a wry smile. "She's really not your biological sister. I also want to find your sister as soon as possible, but Luozhi isn't. She just looks a bit like us. Mom likes her, so she took her in as her goddaughter."

Pei Luo fell silent.

is it?

Why do they have so many similarities, even sharing the same allergens?

……

Pei Cong didn't want to waste any time. He used his connections to contact a genetic testing center, rushed over, and handed them the hair that belonged to Lu Luozhi, asking them to give him the results as soon as possible.

Now, all we can do is wait patiently.
