Chapter 834 - 834: It’s Your Great-Grandson
“When did it fall in?” Aunt Gong came over and picked up the medicine bottle to take a look.
Xiao Tong bit her trouser leg, wanting to take back its toy. Aunt Gong smiled and patted its head. “Xiao Tong is so obedient. But this is not a toy. Miss Su, is this yours…”
However, before Aunt Gong could finish, Su Ji suddenly stood up. Her eyes froze for a second before she turned around and went back to her room to look for something.
It was Nan Miaomiao’s words on the phone that reminded her of her mysterious gift.
Su Ji almost forgot.
Not only did she secretly prepare a gift for Pei Huai, but she had also prepared that gift with great care. She had put in so much effort that when she thought about it now, she had goosebumps all over her body!
Normally, this kind of behavior was not her style. However, at that time, she had a premonition that she would be separated from Pei Huai, but she did not know what would happen. The future of the two of them was uncertain.
One night, Pei Huai fell asleep, but she couldn’t fall asleep. She got up and sat in front of Pei Huai’s desk. She casually pulled open the middle drawer. There was a bottle of panacea inside, and there were some white papers beside it.
It was very time-consuming. A few hours later, it was only until dawn that she stuffed the gift back into Pei Huai’s drawer before he woke up.
After that, she had not been able to tell Pei Huai. Previously, she had not left yet and could not say anything. Later on, when she left, it was too hasty.
She wanted to leave everything to fate.
However, in the few days since he returned, Pei Huai had not mentioned anything about the gift, so he must not have seen it. Su Ji only had one thought now…
Destroy the evidence!
She rushed back to the room and opened the drawer in the middle. The next second, her expression froze.
At this moment, there were only a few documents left in the drawer, and the bottle of elixir…was already gone! Su Ji’s face instantly heated up.
Could it be that he saw it…?
She recalled Pei Huai’s reaction over the past few days. She felt that he did not, but that man was very scheming. Perhaps he had seen it…but he didn’t want to say anything?
Su Ji pursed her lips, unsure for a moment.
Just as she was thinking about this, Pei Huai called.
She did not know if it was Aunt Gong or Ren Guanghua who reported her, but in short, Pei Huai knew that she was back.
Pei Huai asked her if something had happened. No matter how smooth the filming process was, it could not have ended so quickly.
She could hear the executives discussing the contents of the meeting over the phone. It was obvious that he was calling her during the meeting.
The moment he knew that she was back at the apartment, he immediately called her.
Su Ji paused and replied, “it’s nothing. I changed it to tomorrow.”
Pei Huai could tell that her tone was not quite right. She was not as calm as usual, as if she was calculating something.
“Is there something you want to tell me?” The other end of the phone became quiet. Pei Huai changed his location so that he could listen to her tone more
carerully.
Su Ji was silent at first, then she gritted her teeth and asked tentatively, “I remember that there should be a bottle of All Purpose Medicine in your drawer?”
Pei Huai recalled for a moment and was about to answer when his brows suddenly furrowed. “Why did you suddenly ask about the bottle of medicine?
Are you feeling unwell? I’ll go back immediately…”
“Well,” Su Ji paused and quickly said, “you don’t have to come back. I’m not feeling unwell. I just wanted to bring it to my colleagues at the set tomorrow!”
Pei Huai confirmed that there was nothing wrong with her voice. He slowly exhaled.
“That bottle is half full.” His voice was soft and inexplicably gentle. “I’ll get you a few new bottles.”
Su Ji had to lie, so she said yes. The two chatted for a while more. Su Ji told him to go back to the meeting first and not delay for too long before Pei Huai hung up.
When Su Ji mentioned the bottle of medicine, Pei Huai’s first reaction was that he was worried that something had happened. Therefore, Su Ji was now certain that her fiancé had not seen the gift.
There was no way to find out where the half bottle of medicine had gone. Su Ji tapped her forehead with her phone.
Since he hadn’t discovered it after such a long time, it shouldn’t be so easy to find it.
Annoying…
As for Pei Huai, following Su Ji’s words, he remembered that there was originally half a bottle of all-purpose medicine in his drawer.
However, he was worried that his grandfather would take the medicine carelessly when the original owner was around, so he gave the half bottle of medicine to his grandfather. If his heart really felt uncomfortable, he could take one pill.
The all-purpose medicine was a perfect formula without any side effects. Even if someone who had no problems took it, it could also be used as a supplement to strengthen their body.
Before he returned to the meeting room, he called Shen Mu.
“Boss.” Shen Mu’s hands were tightly pressed against the seams of his pants. He was ready to be on standby.
Pei Huai said, “go to Huichun Hall and bring ten bottles of all-purpose medicine over.”
“No problem.” Shen Mu bowed and left.
At the same time, in the Pei family.
Pei Qingshen went back to sleep after breakfast and only woke up now.
He came out of the room with a layer of light green under his eyes.
The butler was carrying a tea tray and was very worried when he saw this. “Old
Master, why do you look so bad? Are you feeling unwell?”
Pei Qingshen glanced at him coldly. He was still immersed in the lingering warmth of the dream just now. He was in a state where he did not like anyone.
That dream was so scary.
He dreamed that he got up and went out of the house. He saw Pei Huai standing on the living room balcony, holding something in his arms.
Pei Huai turned his head sideways. Pei Qingshen narrowed his eyes and asked him, “what are you holding in your arms?”
Pei Huai smiled and replied, “he’s your great-grandson.”
Pei Qingshen was overjoyed and was so happy that he slapped his thigh.
“When did Su Ji give birth? Let me see!” He walked over quickly.
Pei Huai handed the little thing in the swaddling clothes to him, and he carefully took it.
At the same time, he let out a “oh oh” sound to coax the little darling. However, the little darling’s face was one of a blue cat!
Pei Qingshen was so angry that his face turned green!
He clutched his chest, feeling uncomfortable.
The butler suddenly remembered something. “By the way, Old Master, I’ll go get the medicine that Third Master gave you last time!”
As he spoke, he asked the servant to help the old man sit down quickly and then ran to get the medicine himself.
The butler was worried about the old man’s health and ran back and forth. It didn’t even take half a minute.
However, he felt that the medicine bottle was a little light in his hand.
There seemed to be pills in it, but there was no sound when it was shaken.
Especially after he started running, it became more obvious.
However, he didn’t dare to open the medicine given by Third Master without permission, so he quickly handed it to the old man.
The servant brought over warm water. Pei Qingshen opened it and poured a piece into his mouth.
As soon as he took a bite, he suddenly frowned.
He spat it out again.
He held it in his hand and looked at it carefully. It seemed to be medicine…but not really…
Looking at the bottle, it was filled with these light “pills”.
It was a “pill” folded from a white note…
It was probably similar to the steps of folding a small star, but without the five corners of the star. It looked like an oblate pill.
And inside each pill….contained handwritten notes!
