After she left her father and kept her son, President Pei lost control and knelt down.

hospital.

After Qiao Wan finished talking with Ye Jizhou, she went to play with her son's toys.

We already have one of these toys at home; it was a gift from Fu Yuanzhou to Xiaobao during the Chinese New Year.

She picked up a part and assembled it with Xiaobao. She leaned slightly forward, a strand of hair falling down, exuding an indescribable serene beauty.

Ye Jizhou stopped eating and stared at her silently, without blinking.

Leng Feng rushed in from outside, followed by a medical worker in protective clothing, holding a disinfectant sprayer.

"Madam, Young Master Bao, there are rats in this room. We need to disinfect them immediately."

Qiao Wan was terrified of this kind of animal, so she dropped her toys and pulled Xiao Bao towards the door.

"Leng Feng, how can there be rats in the children's ward? This is really outrageous. You need to get rid of them quickly."

Leng Feng glanced at Ye Jizhou, his words carrying a hidden meaning: "Yes, a very large one, very obvious."

Ye Jizhou put down his cutlery: "What do you mean?"

"This place needs to be disinfected; it's not suitable for anyone to stay any longer. You can leave now."

"I'm asking you, where are the mice?"

"A mouse doesn't wear its mouse on its sleeve."

"Can you two stop arguing?" Qiao Wan pulled her son's hand. "Come on, son, we need to disinfect this place. Mommy will take you to the playground."

Whether there were rats or not, she was annoyed. She didn't know what was wrong with these two; they kept arguing.

I'll take my son home from the hospital tomorrow.

Ye Jizhou was about to leave with Qiao Wan and her son when Leng Feng raised his hand to stop him: "Sir, can't you have some self-awareness? President Pei is kicking you out. If you don't know what's good for you, I'll have no choice but to use force."

Qiao Wan stood at the door and stopped in her tracks upon hearing this.

It's Pei Hansheng again. How can he be so persistent? His controlling nature is terrifying to an appalling degree.

"Ji Zhou, your research institute must be very busy, right? Go back now, we'll contact you again."

"Madam, Mr. Pei does not want you to have any contact with this person."

Qiao Wan glanced at Leng Feng: "I'm not a prisoner imprisoned by Pei Hansheng. I'm free to see whom and do whatever I want. We're divorced, and even if I find another man to date now, he has no right to interfere."

Leng Feng's gaze passed over Qiao Wan and landed on the man coming towards them. He broke out in a cold sweat and gave Qiao Wan a wink.

Qiao Wan felt the oppressive aura sweeping over her from behind.

"Daddy." Xiao Bao grabbed Qiao Wan's hand and ran towards the man. "Daddy, Mommy said Xiao Bao can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Xiao Bao wants to stay with Mommy, so we won't go to Tanshu. But Xiao Bao will miss you."

Pei Hansheng patted Xiaobao's head and picked the little guy up: "Your mommy is still recovering, and she has her own freedom. It's more appropriate for you to stay with me for now."

Qiao Wan bit her lip.

Pei Hansheng spoke in a sarcastic tone, clearly using the words she had just said to provoke her.

She smiled and declined, saying, "There are rats in the ward, I'd better take Xiaobao home tonight."

Pei Hansheng's gaze swept across Qiao Wan's face and landed on Leng Feng, his eyes filled with reproach.

Qiao Wan is a meticulous and brave woman, but she can be scared to tears by the sight of a mouse. Once, during an argument, he bought a lifelike mouse and put it on the bed, which frightened her so much that she jumped up and clung to him.

That night, he stayed up all night holding her. She cried and talked in her sleep, "Mom and Dad, don't lock me in the dark room, the rats bite."

Her fear evoked a brief feeling of heartache and pity in him.

The "parents" Qiao Wan mentioned must have been her bloodsucking adoptive parents. He should have realized then that Qiao Wan longed for family affection but was abused, which was the deepest and most painful black hole in her heart.

If he could follow the deep emotions in his heart and do something for her, such as pulling her out of the abyss of her childhood, or helping her find her biological family.

Is she now thinking of all the good things about him and reluctant to leave this marriage?

He was blinded by his own involvement at the time, and his regret came too late and he did too little. Now he wants to make amends, and hopefully it's not too late.

"Young Master Pei, the rat I was talking about wasn't a rat."

Leng Feng hurriedly explained that he just wanted to get rid of Ye Jizhou.

Pei Hansheng immediately understood what was going on and did not blame him.

Ye Jizhou sneered: "Qiao Wan is terrified of mice. They left her with a trauma from her childhood. If there really were mice in the room, how could I possibly allow something that would affect her mood to exist?"

Qiao Wan and Ye Jizhou exchanged a glance, a smile appearing in their eyes: "It's been so long, you still haven't forgotten."

Ye Jizhou remembers everything about her, just as Qiao Wan remembers everything about Pei Hansheng. True care doesn't need to be taught; it comes from constantly thinking about her and focusing all your attention on her.

"I will never forget the way you came to me crying, begging me to get rid of the rats for you."

Qiao Wan sighed whenever she thought about it.

She didn't notice that Pei Hansheng's face had turned extremely pale, and even Xiao Bao felt something was wrong, his neck felt cold and he was a little scared.

She burrowed into the man's arms, trembling, and cried, "Daddy, I'm scared!"

Pei Hansheng concealed the storm raging on his face without showing any emotion, and sneered, while the beast inside him was about to go mad.

He now wishes he could strangle Ye Jizhou.

However, before he put it into practice, Qiao Wan said to Ye Jizhou, "Jizhou, you should go now. Contact me again when Teacher Chen comes to Beijing."

"Of course, I will definitely call you."

Ye Jizhou's eyes were filled with provocation as he met Pei Hansheng's gaze with disdain.

Pei Hansheng remained expressionless, patting the little one in his arms: "Son, what should you say when the guests leave?"

Xiao Bao raised his face and waved to Ye Jizhou: "Goodbye, Uncle Ye."

Pei Hansheng grabbed Xiao Bao's little hand: "Remember, little master, you don't need to be so polite to uninvited guests. You can even put on a grumpy face as if you don't want them to come again."

Xiao Bao immediately imitated Pei Hansheng, putting on a stern face; the father and son were exactly alike in their aloofness and arrogance.

Qiao Wan frowned: "Pei Hansheng, what kind of nonsense are you teaching Xiaobao? Xiaobao has been staying at Tanshu for a few days, and he has completely lost all the manners I taught him. You've spoiled my son rotten."

Pei Hansheng lowered his face, teased Xiao Bao's aloof eyebrows and eyes, and said with a faint smile: "He doesn't need to learn manners. Some people don't understand. Only by maintaining a measured indifference can one avoid attracting flies with ill intentions."

Qiao Wan always felt that this man was implying something about her, but she had no evidence.

Pei Hansheng smiled slightly, liking her somewhat silly appearance.

He stared at her intently, his eyes filled with a hint of probing.

"Qiao Wan, I'm going on a blind date tonight."

Qiao Wan paused for a moment, but quickly regained her composure.

"I wish you a successful blind date."

She smiled gently as she said this, her heart unusually calm. She had mentally prepared herself for the possibility of such a reaction, so she didn't feel any emotional fluctuation.

Pei Hansheng couldn't see the slightest bit of concern on her face, not even a hint of surprise.

He was somewhat disappointed, but he didn't show it on his face.

"I'll take Xiaobao with me."

Qiao Wan was taken aback and asked him, "Are you out of your mind? What kind of decent person takes their child to a blind date?"

Pei Hansheng ignored her and asked Xiaobao, "Daddy will take you out for a big meal tonight, do you want to?"

Xiao Bao nodded emphatically: "Yes, yes, I'll take Mommy with me."

The man picked up the child and turned to leave.

Qiao Wan was both amused and exasperated. Instead of chasing after them, she made a phone call to the Pei family's old residence.
