Not as strong as imagined

The housekeeper who was standing not far away immediately stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "Madam."

"Go upstairs and call Master and Zikai. Just tell them that I'm waiting for them to eat." Bai Wanjing ordered.

When the housekeeper heard Bai Wanjing's words, he did not turn around. Instead, he looked indifferent and replied to his wife, "Madam, the master has given instructions in the morning that no one is allowed to disturb him and the second young master. I asked you to eat lunch first without waiting for them.

"

Hearing what the housekeeper said, Bai Wanjing became a little angry. She looked at the housekeeper and asked, "Can't even I disturb you?"

Bai Wanjing couldn't understand what was going on with Peixu? What could she say to her son that it would take so long, so she couldn't bother herself?

The housekeeper just lowered his head and answered Bai Wanjing's words with silence.

Bai Wanjing was angry, but because she didn't get up until after ten o'clock, she would be really hungry. Thinking about it, she might as well eat by herself first.

After Bai Wanjing had eaten, she went upstairs and gathered up the courage to go to the study to ask He Peixu and her son to have dinner. Even if He Peixu had given orders before, she would not pay attention to her orders now. If he was angry, just be angry. If he blamed himself, he would blame himself.

I can't control that much anymore.

However, as soon as Bai Wanjing walked to the study door and was about to go in, she was stopped by the housekeeper.

Bai Wanjing was startled, looked at the housekeeper, and asked in surprise, "Butler, do you dare to stop me now?"

"Madam, I'm sorry, this is the master's order." the butler replied.

"Let me in. If he blames anything, just blame it on me. It has nothing to do with you." Bai Wanjing said, because her body had just recovered, even if she spoke in anger, she would be very calm and not at all harsh or angry.

The housekeeper heard Bai Wanjing's words, but did not stop, keeping his hand in front of Bai Wanjing.

At this time, the study door opened from the inside.

"Mom..." He Zikai called out, but this sound was weaker and softer than anything else he usually did.

Bai Wanjing looked at her son's expression, as usual, and didn't think much about it. When she saw the housekeeper retracting his hand, she immediately took two steps forward, took her son's hand, and said, "Zi Kai, what are you talking about with your dad?

Why did you forget to eat?"

"We talked about some work matters." He Zikai's voice was still very soft, no emotion could be heard, and his face showed nothing.

After saying that, He Zikai slowly broke away from his mother's hand, then stretched out his arms and hugged his mother tightly.

With his tall body hugging his thin mother, He Zikai had suppressed tears in his eyes.

Mom, I love you. Like my sister, I love you very much and I appreciate your love. Thank you.

"Mom, I'm not hungry. I have something to do later. I'll leave first." He Zikai tried hard to control his emotions. After saying these words to his mother, he let go of her mother and didn't even look at her.

, turned sideways, walked past her mother, and hurried downstairs.

He Zikai was very afraid at this moment. He was afraid that when he saw his mother's face, he would not be able to control his sadness. He was afraid that looking at his mother would remind him of his sister and his heart would collapse.

"Zi..." Bai Wanjing didn't know what was going on with her son. When she was about to turn around and call her son, she saw that her son was about to disappear and he was walking very quickly.

He Peixu came out of the study at this time, walked to Bai Wanjing, put his hand on her shoulder, and pulled her into his arms.

"He has something to do, so just let him go." He Peixu's tone was exactly the same as usual, and his face had the same expression as usual.

"But Zi Kai didn't even have lunch." Bai Wanjing said. After she finished speaking, she thought of something. She turned around and looked at He Peixu, and looked into his eyes with an angry expression. "When you talk about work, you should also pay attention to your time.

We can chat after dinner, it won’t take more than half a minute.”

He Peixu looked at the beloved woman in his arms and had no intention of refuting her words. As long as she was not angry, he could just ask the housekeeper to stop her.

"Well, my mistake, I'll pay attention next time." He Peixu admitted his mistake in front of this woman and followed her wishes.

Bai Wanjing didn't really blame He Peixu, let alone what the housekeeper had stopped her from doing. She raised her hand, helped He Peixu straighten his collar, and said in a gentle manner, "Your body is not as strong as before. Eat on time and supplement your nutrition."

It’s necessary, and you can’t miss a single meal.”

This man is much older than me. Over the years, he has become older than me, and his body is getting worse day by day. Now that he is awake, he naturally has to take good care of his body and his life.

"Okay, I will listen to you and eat on time from now on." He Peixu felt warm in his heart. No matter what he and his son had just talked about, at this moment, he was happy because of this woman's words.

"Now, come with me downstairs for dinner, okay?" He Peixu said, his eyes full of doting on this woman.

"Well..." Bai Wanjing nodded, and then the two of them went downstairs.



He Zikai drove the car a short distance away from the He family's mansion. He was so blind that he didn't know where to go, so he simply parked the car on the side of the road.

Looking at the road situation in front of him, He Zikai still held his hands tightly on the steering wheel, and in his eyes, with every second of forbearance, there was finally a moment when he could not hold back, and a tear fell out of his eyes.

I have always wanted to know the truth, the truth about my sister's matter, but when I really found out that day, I felt more uncomfortable and sad than I imagined.

I originally thought that I would be very strong. I have experienced all the storms and waves in my life. I can also bear what happened to my sister. But at this moment, I found that I was very fragile. I was not as strong and bearable as I thought. I suddenly felt that I

There is no such thing in my body. If something related to me happens again at this moment, I will really faint and my heart will collapse.

The phone buzzed in his pocket. He Zikai came to his senses and took the shortest time to control his emotions. Then he took out the phone from his pocket and saw that the call was from Song Jingye. He answered the call.

Song Jingye on the other end heard the call was connected. After waiting for a long time, He Zikai's voice was not heard.

"Zi Kai." Song Jingye called softly.

"Well..." He Zikai responded.

"Are you okay?" Song Jingye asked. He wanted to ask him if the old man had told him, but after hearing his simple words, he knew that he was in a bad mood, so... the old man should have told him.

"Well, it's okay." He Zikai replied, knowing what Song Jingye wanted to ask, so he said directly, "The old man told me that we will get together some other day."

"Hmm..." Song Jingye responded almost without thinking. He Zikai's meaning couldn't be more obvious. He didn't want to say too much about this topic today. He would tell himself another day. (To be continued)
