"Ah-yu, you're back." Dong Qingyuan said with a smile as he looked at Pei Huashang.

  "Dong Xiang, this isn't the place I should be. My home is in Xuan Wang Fu, and my parents should be there too." Pei Hua Shang's voice wasn't loud, but it was distant with a hint of coldness. That kind of voice was childish yet resolute.

  "I naturally have a way to make you come here, and it's definitely legitimate." Just like now, even if you don't want to see me, you can only obediently come to my side. Although it's not the best time yet, it's still a good start.

  "What does Dong Xiang want to do?" Pei Huashang looked at the self-satisfied man, constantly reminding herself in her heart that she must remain calm. Although compared to Dong Qingyuan, she was still a bit too young, but she definitely couldn't lose control.

  "Girl, marry me." To get this child to his side, rather than tying her up with a rope, it's better to tie her down tightly with marriage. It's inevitable that people will gossip about this, but he doesn't care what others think.

  "Dong Xiang, don't you think we're too far apart?" Pei Huashang couldn't have imagined that Dong Qingyuan had such intentions, and suddenly hearing these words made her pale.

  Dong Qingyuan crouched down in front of Pei Huashang, embracing her entire body in his arms. The child's body was completely stiff, but Dong Qingyuan didn't mind at all. This child didn't like this kind of physical contact, and it wasn't the first time he knew about it. If she were a younger sister or niece, Dong Qingyuan wouldn't have minded, but for the man who would take Pei Huashang in the future, it was a headache.

  As a man after Pei Huashang, Dong Qingyuan couldn't just let this matter go.

  "Where's my mother?" Pei Huashuang looked at Dong Qingyuan, gritting her teeth before saying these words. Although facing such a situation, Pei Huashuang always had an urge to turn around and leave, but she wouldn't forget the most important thing.

  "I'll take you to see her." Dong Qingyuan picked up Pei Huashang as if he had done so before, and for a moment, Pei Huashang couldn't accept it, which was normal. As long as he brought the person over, he would have time to let Pei Huashang accept this matter.

  This child is really well-behaved and considerate, always treating himself like an adult. If Pei Huashang were to throw a tantrum like a child, he would also slightly give in even if he couldn't say anything.

  Let's just put aside the extra heartache until this child gets married, since we've let go of those complicated emotions, we should treat each other with a single-minded devotion. Otherwise, no matter whether it's right or wrong to ourselves, it's still wrong to the child in our hearts.

  "What's wrong with Mother?" When she saw Yuan Shu Huan, Pei Hua Shuang was really frightened. When Yuan Shu Huan fell down, it felt like the sky had collapsed for them. Speaking to Dong Qing Yuan in an annoyed tone, actually just raising her voice slightly.

  "This was only known after Han'er woke up, and when I saw Han'er, she was already like this" Dong Qingyuan explained helplessly, somewhat understanding why Pei Huashang was so angry that he didn't know how to be angry.

  Looking at the truth revealed in Dong Qingyuan's eyes, Pei Huashang could only lower his head, and in fact, he had already believed Dong Qingyuan's words.

  Even if Dong Qingyuan tells lies one after another, that kind of affection is something that can't be faked.

  "If you agree with me, we'll go find Pei Mingxuan to discuss this matter. From now on, it's just going to be the two of us, no more of those messy women, and nothing like that will ever happen again."

  In this regard, Dong Qingyuan is actually a bit messy, but now facing Pei Huashang, if he is still so messy, even if he becomes a relative, he will probably lose his wife.

  Behind Pei Huashang, there was another Yuan Shuhuan, who was the one person that truly couldn't be messed with. Previously, Dong Qingyuan had thought that Yuan Shuhuan was someone who genuinely wasn't easy to get along with, so it was best not to mess with him if possible. Unfortunately, from the very beginning, Dong Qingyuan had already provoked Yuan Shuhuan, and afterwards could only continue down this path of no return until the end.

  Now it's completely impossible to provoke, that man who claims to be the father, now his eyes can only see Yuan Shu Huan alone. If he goes to provoke Yuan Shu Huan now, it's not just an ordinary death wish. The taste of solitary palm, Dong Qingyuan has experienced it.

  "Dong Xiang always says one thing and does another, how can I believe you?" At that time, he took himself away from his mother, Dong Qingyuan was furious and made a promise. However, the result was disappointing, such a Dong Qingyuan makes it hard for him to believe. Moreover, the problem with his father is simply insurmountable, which is the most headache-inducing issue.

  Today's trip was originally meant to be a fun outing, but now that something like this has happened, I'm afraid Father won't agree. However, I couldn't tell Dong Qingyuan the real reason, if he really goes to discuss this issue with Father, then don't even think about Father letting me out again next time.

  "Perhaps in Pei Mingxuan's eyes, all of you children put together don't even add up to half the weight of Yuan Shuhuan." Dong Qingyuan was absolutely telling the truth, and he couldn't help but feel a little resentful that Pei Mingxuan had such a perfect image in Pei Huashang's heart. Especially when Pei Huashang didn't have a good impression of himself, this point became even more bothersome.

  "But without a mother, we wouldn't have existed in the first place." A mother is the most fundamental existence. Without her, they would be drifting aimlessly. Pei Huashuang had never doubted this and was always grateful to Yuan Shuhan.

  "So you've agreed" Dong Qingyuan grasped Pei Huashang's hand, saying that if it weren't for Yuan Shuhuan, there wouldn't be a chance for himself and others to make a move, forcing Pei Huashang to agree to marry him.

  Pei Huashang knelt in front of Yuan Shuheng's bed for a while, even grasping one of Yuan Shuheng's hands. Dong Qingyuan also knew that Pei Huashang was taking Yuan Shuheng's pulse again, but he just smiled and stood aside. He had nothing to hide about this matter, so why would he be afraid of Pei Huashang diagnosing something?

  "Thank you, Dong Xiang, for taking care of my mother. As for my father, I'll talk to him about it." Can't help but say that being pinched by Dong Qingyuan has hit a sore spot, even though she no longer has any feelings for him now. Even if in the past, Pei Huashuang had never thought about romantic love, but can't help but say that if it were Dong Qingyuan, Pei Huashuang wouldn't have much resistance to it.

  "I'd say it's also possible." Dong Qingyuan couldn't bear the thought of Pei Huashang suffering any more grievances, although he estimated that even if faced with such a situation, Pei Mingxuan wouldn't give Pei Huashang too much trouble. For now, Pei Huashang had already endured too much pressure, and Dong Qingyuan couldn't let him endure any more.

  He picked up Pei Huashang and got into the soft sedan, which was originally well-planned and prepared. "If you feel tired, just take a nap, as long as you agree, it's fine." Dong Qingyuan could face any greater pressure, as long as this little person in his arms agreed.

  Pei Huashang shook her head, although she knew that such things were simple. But the things that should be endured still had to be endured, even if no one had ever asked herself to bear them.

  Dong Qingyuan felt a pang of heartache as he held the child tightly in his arms, unable to imagine what this child had gone through before. Should he resent Yuan Shuhuan for raising this child to be too serious and responsible? But if this child were not serious and responsible, he himself would not have succeeded today.

  "It's impossible." Looking at the big and small in front of him, he directly made a decision on this matter.

  "Dad, can we talk alone?" There were some things that Father did not know about yet, and even Dong Qingyuan himself was unclear. So Pei Huashang had to have a private conversation with Pei Mingxuan, which was the key to making up her mind to marry Dong Qingyuan.

  "Go, go to the study." This child has always been sensible, but how can he let this child just like that, and his lifelong happiness is lost. Pei Mingxuan said, still staring at Dong Qingyuan fiercely, after all, he couldn't bear to make Pei Huashuang difficult.

  Dong Qingyuan smiled and nodded, at least now it can be seen that Pei Mingxuan is truly fond of these children. In any case, at least he was happy for Pei Huashang. Such a loving father, no wonder Pei Huashang would worry about him, but he didn't want Pei Huashang to think too much about other men in her heart.

  Even if this man is Pei Huashang's nominal father, Dong Qingyuan would still feel a little uncomfortable in her heart.

  "What are you thinking, someone like Dong Qingyuan is worthy of your lifelong trust?" But Yuan Shuhan's matter can still be figured out, but if this matter succeeds, it will be Pei Huashuang's lifelong affair. Dong Qingyuan really has no shame.

  "We can afford to, but Mother can't. If within three days no one with high internal power is found to channel internal energy into Mother, not only will Mother's powers be lost, but I fear we'll end up as a dead mother and child. Although Dong Xiang's martial arts are not weak, he doesn't have such strong internal power."

  "When he heard this result, Pei Mingxuan's face also turned pale."

  "When Mother was born, poison had already been planted in her body. Now that the poison has been fully activated, these past few days Mother's meridians have all shattered one by one. Only someone with profound internal energy can repair them after they've all shattered, using their powerful inner force to reconnect them."

  "The most important thing is that this matter can only be done at that moment, otherwise even if it's a god, it would be hard to save." With that, Pei Huashang finally couldn't hold back and burst into tears on Pei Mingxuan's body. Being able to hold on from the Marquis' residence to here was already quite an accomplishment for Pei Huashang.

  "You should have said that earlier!" Dong Qingyuan finally couldn't help but push the door open and come in. He also didn't expect Yuan Shuhuan's situation to be so severe, other things could be put aside for now. Dong Qingyuan could completely understand why his mother would send Yuan Shuhuan away after giving birth to him.

  The mother loved her children so much that she had already left a way out for Yuan Shu Huan and herself. But unexpectedly, Yuan Shu Huan was still poisoned with such a vicious poison.

  "You scared Huaying." Pei Mingxuan hugged the child in his arms tightly and said coldly to Dong Qingyuan.
