Chapter 355: Chapter 356 She Seems to Be Sick

"After that, Cheng Hao’s dad came." With just one sentence from Pei Yining, Xu Nianhua felt her heart involuntarily lift.

As a father, he would still hope his child could find happiness.

He hadn’t even entered the door when he was asked to borrow two hundred thousand for that girl. Cheng Dad’s first reaction was to wonder if his son had been bewitched.

Cheng Dad put down the phone and came straight away, arriving dusty and travel-worn. When he saw Cheng Hao, he was drunk and completely unconscious.

"Cheng Hao, you weren’t beaten, were you?"

Even though Xu Nianhua wasn’t there, she could feel the atmosphere; it definitely wasn’t good.

Not getting the two hundred thousand and then breaking up right away, such a girl couldn’t leave a good impression in Cheng Dad’s eyes.

As Pei Yining vividly described the situation, Cheng Dad gave Cheng Hao a severe beating, then had someone take Cheng Hao back to Ningbei.

"Your brother wasn’t... scolded, was he?" Xu Nianhua suddenly asked.

If she remembered correctly, Cheng Hao had come to find Pei Yicheng.

"Nianhua, you really do care about my brother." Pei Yining smiled gratefully, showing her teeth as she said, "Uncle Cheng wouldn’t dare to scold my brother."

Uncle Cheng adored Pei Yicheng as though he were his own son, and with Cheng Hao’s temperament, Uncle Cheng also understood. How could he possibly scold her brother over this?

If Uncle Cheng was to blame anyone, it would be his own disappointing son.

"So that’s it for this matter?" Xu Nianhua asked again.

Cheng Hao’s family looked quite decent. Could Cheng Dad really watch idly as his son was mistreated?

"Definitely not just like that." Pei Yining said with nerves twitching, "You don’t know, when Uncle Cheng took Cheng Hao back to Ningbei, he told him that if he can’t make something of himself, he shouldn’t return to South City."

"That’s quite good, once Cheng Hao stands at a certain height, people like Zou Yaru will be just a passing cloud to him." Xu Nianhua nodded in agreement.

In the future, when they meet again, Zou Yaru will definitely regret it.

If it’s the Gu Junhe she knows, Zou Yaru will regret even more that she didn’t choose to commit everything to Cheng Hao, who was willing to give her his all.

"Who’s delivering for the Chili Factory?"

Xu Nianhua suddenly remembered.

Pei Yining shook her head, pursing her lips as she said, "The first two days, I was too busy taking care of the two drunkards. Thankfully, Uncle Cheng arrived, or else I would have been suffocated by alcohol."

"Let’s go, ask my brother," Pei Yining said, pulling Xu Nianhua upstairs.

As soon as they entered the room, even though it had been cleaned, a faint smell of alcohol lingered. Pei Yicheng was sitting at a desk by the window, immersed in reading documents.

"Brother, guess who I brought?"

Pei Yining proudly pushed Xu Nianhua in front of Pei Yicheng as if she was presenting a treasure.

As they were about to reach him, Pei Yining deliberately exerted force with her hand.

"Ouch." Pei Yining let out a sharp scream.

Xu Nianhua felt a force from behind, pushing her forward.

A handsome face grew larger in front of her eyes, and she found herself plunging towards Pei Yicheng.

Her forehead collided with his shoulder, the pain nearly bringing tears to her eyes.

"Nianhua, I’m sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose," Pei Yining quickly collapsed to the side while explaining. Half-prostrated on the floor, she watched the two of them together, finding the scene pleasing to the eye no matter how she looked at it.

"Are you okay?"

Pei Yicheng steadied her waist with his hand, looking down at her forehead which had obviously reddened, and instinctively started to rub it for her.

The slightly rough hand, neither too light nor too heavy, caressed her forehead, carrying his unique scent. Xu Nianhua felt as if she were coming down with something, her heart beating rapidly at intervals.
