Chapter 365: Being Loved
In the dead of night, Xu Sichen put Li Mirui to sleep and got up, picked up the medicine on the bedside table and walked out. His mother passed away and her body could not be buried until now. He was always in a bad mood, but he knew how to hide it.
After opening the door, Xu Sichen saw Pei Xiuyan standing in front of the window holding a cigarette and not sleeping.
"Brother." Xu Sichen took a glass of water, drank the medicine, and walked over to Pei Xiuyan.
Pei Xiuyan said "hmm" and looked towards the silent courtyard.
Grandma watched him grow up. She was very bad to Ye Yuncheng, but she gave him all her love.
But he couldn't remember Ye Yuncheng in front of him.
Xu Sichen walked to Pei Xiuyan and stood side by side with him, quietly admiring the moonlight.
"Si Chen, I've always wanted to say something to you alone, but I haven't been able to bother with it recently." Pei Xiuyan pushed up his glasses and turned to look at Xu Sichen.
Xu Sichen held a cup of hot water: "Let's talk, there is nothing else we brothers can't say."
"Wait for me here for a while." Pei Xiuyan walked towards the study.
Xu Sichen blew on the scalding hot water. If something big hadn't happened, Pei Xiuyan wouldn't have the same expression.
Pei Xiuyan handed the document in his hand to Xu Sichen: "Look at it carefully from beginning to end."
Under the dim light, Xu Sichen squinted his eyes and slowly read sentence by sentence. When he saw the identification results, he suddenly laughed out loud.
"Xu Jian was so cruel to our mother and son. I always thought, it would be great if he was not my father." Xu Sichen held Pei Xiuyan's shoulders and lowered his head.
"Brother, you know, I have always thought that if he was not my father, it would be normal to hit me like that... After all... I am not his son..." Xu Sichen's voice choked with sobs.
Pei Xiuyan stood in front of Xu Sichen, not moving or making any unnecessary moves.
The grievances I have suffered since I was a child now seem like a joke.
Xu Jian is really not his father, so the grievances he has suffered over the years are nothing.
Xu Sichen's eyes were red and he continued to look down. When he saw that Xu Jian was the murderer of Pei Xiuyan's mother, he couldn't hold back.
"Brother, why, why didn't you tell me from the beginning." Xu Sichen's voice was hoarse, and he clutched Pei Xiuyan's clothes: "You should have told me earlier, why didn't you tell me."
Pei Xiuyan looked at Xu Sichen, his voice gentle and calm: "You need a home, he can give it to you."
You know, all Pei Xiuyan's misfortunes were due to the death of his parents. He found the murderer, but gave up pursuing the matter because he needed a family.
For so many years, he had to look at his mother's murderer from time to time. After all, he still had to shake hands with him and give him resources.
Just because he is his nominal father, just because he needs a home that doesn't have any warmth at all.
Pei Xiuyan is a very smart person, and no one can weigh the pros and cons better than him. However, he actually made the wrong choice for his little hope.
"elder brother..."
Xu Sichen felt that he had difficulty breathing.
Pei Xiuyan helped Xu Sichen to sit down in front of the sofa, and said in a gentle voice: "Sichen, you are not young now. Don't torture yourself for things that have passed."
The reason why he told him was to let him know that Xu Jian was not his father, let alone his father who killed his mother.
In this way, he can relax a little, otherwise it will be difficult for him to be a son in the middle.
Xu Jian is just a simple bad guy, nothing more.
"I'm sorry." Xu Sichen lay on the sofa, covering his eyes with his arms, his voice and body trembling.
Pei Xiuyan sat aside: "Xu Jian's murder has nothing to do with you. It's my problem to choose to conceal it. If you have to apologize, it should be me."
"If I had told you earlier, maybe you wouldn't have been so wronged." Pei Xiuyan was not moved by himself. Whether his choice was right or wrong was no longer important.
Xu Sichen turned around and turned his back to Pei Xiuyan. For such a big man, it would be a bit embarrassing for him to have his brother coax him.
And with Pei Xiuyan here, except for the fact that he was aggrieved at home, no one dared to look down on him outside, let alone suffer him any grievances.
Pei Xiuyan walked to the window and sat on a chair. He couldn't leave. Xu Sichen was not in very good condition, but he couldn't stay by his side all the time. After all, he was about to be a father.
Xu Sichen lay on the sofa for a long time. When he got up, his eyes were swollen.
Pei Xiuyan turned his head when he heard the voice: "Don't think too much."
"Brother, someone has always said that I am the most loyal dog you have ever raised. I often answered with a smile that I am willing to be a dog." Xu Sichen stood in the living room with red eyes, looking at the man sitting on the chair.
Pei Xiuyan.
Pei Xiuyan crossed his legs, put his chin on his hand and said in a deep voice: "Scold me?"
Xu Sichen laughed out loud.
Pei Xiuyan regarded him as his own brother. When he said he was a dog, he was not just scolding him...
Xu Sichen returned to the bedroom and fumbled onto the bed.
Li Mirui moved closer to Xu Sichen, then frowned at the coldness and groaned: "It's so cold." She turned around, hugged him in her arms, and pulled the quilt.
The corner of Xu Sichen's mouth raised into a faint smile.
He must become a qualified husband and father and give them the warmest home.
Pei Xiuyan returned to the bedroom and entered the bathroom, rinsed his mouth and changed into pajamas.
Ye Yuncheng opened one eye tiredly: "Professor Pei Da, this is unnecessary. When you come in, you smell of cigarette smoke."
Pei Xiuyan lifted the quilt and hugged Ye Yuncheng: "Sorry, next time..."
"Next time I smoke in the room, it's like this anyway." Ye Yuncheng said and put his legs on Pei Xiuyan's body. She was so tired and sleepy.
Pei Xiuyan's big hand fell on her leg.
Ye Yuncheng groaned twice: "No, I'm tired."
Pei Xiuyan said "Yeah", he just wanted to leave it like this. It seemed that his wife had a deep misunderstanding of him.
Of course it's not absolute.
Ye Yuncheng's dreams were all about meetings, muttering and cursing when he fell asleep.
Pei Xiuyan couldn't help but feel sad. Probably because of the heavy work pressure, Ye Yuncheng often talked in his sleep, but most of the time he was so angry that he pouted.
"Bully, bully me, I, I, I will give it to you, sue me, husband..."
Pei Xiuyan turned to the side and said softly: "Yes, tell your husband, he will support you."
Of course Ye Yuncheng would not answer him.
In the morning, Ye Yuncheng was about to leave for the company, but learned that the girl named Jiang Yi who helped her vent her anger that day had no mother and died in a hotel not far from her home.
