Chapter 15 Protecting Weaknesses
"Go by yourself." Pei Xingzhi's gaze remained fixed on Qin Song; he hadn't glanced at Shen Yan Hui since returning from the phone call.

He reached out and took Qin Song's bag, lifting the insulated food container onto that hand as well, and then used his other hand to put his arm around Qin Song's shoulder.

"I need to take Qin Song home first, so I can't go with you. Anyway, you drove yourself, so you can just follow the navigation to find it."

"..." Shen Yanhui was speechless for the second time after being cornered by Pei Xingzhi.

Pei Xingzhi lowered his eyes and gazed at Qin Song, his eyes filled with tenderness.

He had said that as long as Qin Song was willing to sincerely repent, he would treat Qin Song with the same sincerity. He understood Shen Yan Hui's thoughts; he wouldn't let Qin Song suffer in front of her.

"Let's go." Without even saying goodbye to Shen Yan, he led Qin Song toward the parking lot.

"Well, I'll go back by myself." Qin Song broke free from his embrace, refusing his protection.

"What's wrong?" He thought Qin Song was still angry about his meeting with Shen Yanhui, and in his anxiety, he was about to explain, "Qin Song, I really didn't lie to you."

Qin Song was amused by his nervous appearance. She patted his arm and said patiently and gently, "I believe you're not lying to me. I said I'd go back by myself because I was worried you'd get too tired from running around. You've been busy for a whole day and night without even having time to sleep, and you have to rush back to handle work soon."

"With so many things on your shoulders, how could I bear to let you drive me home exhausted? You go to the studio first, I can just take a taxi home myself."

As she spoke, Qin Song took her bag from Pei Xingzhi's hand and tiptoed to brush the scraps of paper off his hair.

"Don't be nervous, I believe in you. The food in the insulated box is something I made this morning, remember to eat it later."

"..." Pei Xingzhi stared at her blankly, speechless for a moment.

Qin Song's understanding and tolerance were an unexpected surprise to him. He was enveloped in Qin Song's gentleness, and his heart swelled with warmth.

Such a wonderful Qin Song had only appeared in his dreams; he never imagined that one day she would come into reality.

"Go." Qin Song looked up at him, her eyes clear and bright.

"Thank you," Pei Xingzhi said. "Thank you for believing in me."

Qin Song laughed again: "Silly girl, go on, I'm leaving."

She picked up her bag and gave Shen Yan a meaningful look before leaving.

Shen Yanhui had a very sour expression, clearly disgusted by Qin Song.

Qin Song smiled innocently, picked up his bag, and walked away with light steps.

The coffee shop was nearly five kilometers away from their rented house, and Qin Song took out his phone to hail a taxi as he walked.

Pei Xingzhi, carrying the insulated food container, didn't rush to leave. He stood there until Qin Song's figure became blurry before taking out his car keys and turning to drive away.

“Okay.” Shen Yan composed herself and chased after him in her high heels. “I’m too lazy to drive myself, so I’ll ride with you.”

“You should drive yourself.” Pei Xingzhi refused without hesitation. “Everyone online says that women become particularly sensitive after becoming pregnant. I can’t go home now, I’m worried that Qin Song will overthink things.”

Why are you so worried about her?

Shen Yan couldn't hold back and blurted it out. She ran a few steps and stopped Pei Xingzhi in front of him.

"Qin Song has already treated you like this, do you really need to be so concerned about her feelings?"

Pei Xingzhi frowned slightly, pushing up his slipping glasses with his index finger: "Qin Song has changed, don't be so hostile towards her." "Changed?" Shen Yan Hui seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. She shook her head with a cold laugh, her eyes filled with deep incomprehension: "Who is Qin Song? You actually believe she can change?"

"The Qin family treated her so well, Qin Sisi treated her so well, how did she repay them? You treated her so well, how did she repay you? Her reputation in Yuncheng is rotten to the core, and you still believe she will change?"

“Shen Yanhui!” Pei Xingzhi was provoked by Shen Yanhui’s words and his face turned cold for the first time. “I am Qin Song’s husband. I can see for myself whether she has really changed. Don’t talk about her like that.”

"That's exactly what I'm going to say about her, because that's who she is!" Shen Yanhui stopped pretending and completely revealed her hostility towards Qin Song in front of Pei Xingzhi.

"Xingzhi, you know perfectly well how your child came to be. That woman is full of scheming; even if she's willing to change, it'll be for a reason!"

"I know you're soft-hearted and responsible! But think about it carefully. When you were successful, she wasn't willing to live a good life with you. Now that you're bankrupt, how can she possibly change her mind?"

Pei Xingzhi fell silent.

He admitted that Shen Yanhui's words made perfect sense—Qin Song's change was indeed sudden and inexplicable, and he couldn't figure out the reason even after thinking about it for a long time.

But so what? As long as Qin Song is sincere, as long as Qin Song is willing to live a good life with him, he can let go of all these concerns.

Regardless of how their child came to be, he is now married to Qin Song. Marriage is not a game; since he married Qin Song, he must do his utmost to be responsible to the end.

He's living his own life, and as long as he's happy, other people's opinions don't matter that much.

"Go ahead." Seeing that he remained silent, Shen Yanhui assumed that he had taken her words to heart, so she couldn't help but say a little more.

"For some inexplicable reason, I know a lot about Qin Song. I not only know her past and present, but I also know her future."

"She's really not a good person. If you stay with her, she'll ruin you terribly! Xingzhi, listen to my advice, leave her as soon as possible. You're still young, you can have another child..."

"Shen Yanhui!"

Pei Xingzhi interrupted Shen Yanhui with a gloomy face, his brows furrowed with obvious anger.

He stared at Shen Yanhui, his eyes spreading with coldness: "Qin Song is my wife. I know her better than anyone else. Don't talk about her like that anymore. If you don't like her, you can simply avoid having anything to do with her."

Shen Yanhui was both helpless and annoyed: "Pei Xingzhi!"

"Don't use such awful words to describe her." Pei Xingzhi was unwilling to listen to her anymore, and turned away, passing right by her.

"If you still want to discuss collaboration, then let's meet at the studio. If not, then I'll be leaving now."

Shen Yanhui clenched her fist secretly, hesitated for less than two seconds, then turned and chased after Pei Xingzhi's back.

Qin Song's taxi was stuck in traffic for more than ten minutes before it arrived. She checked the license plate number to make sure it was the one picking her up before stepping forward to give the last ten digits of her phone number.

"449--"

"Sorry, we won't be taking the ride. Please cancel your order."

"what?"

Qin Song was still in a daze when a man suddenly appeared, grabbed her wrist, and dragged her away.
