My ex-boyfriend cheated on me with my sister, and I got married to him in a flash; he went crazy.

Pei Zhengping was completely taken aback by Wen Luoyao's words. He glanced at Pei Yichen, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and awkwardly turned off the speakerphone.

Pei Yichen's expression didn't change much, as if this was something he had already expected.

Pei Zhengping opened the door to the ward and walked into the corridor. He asked, puzzled, "Wait, Yao Yao, didn't you like Yi Chen a lot before? Why are you giving up now that Yi Chen is willing to let you get close to him?"

Wen Luoyao scoffed inwardly.

Where was he all this time? Now that he's paralyzed, is he willing to give her a chance to take care of him?

Did they think she was some kind of maid who cleaned up after people's excrement and urine?

Speechless inside, she feigned a hurt expression and said, "Uncle Pei, I did like Brother Yichen a lot before, but I've taken the initiative too many times, and Brother Yichen always gives me the cold shoulder. I'm a girl too, and I get cold-hearted sometimes..."

She paused, sniffed, and said, "Maybe it's because I've grown up, and suddenly I've come to my senses. I want to live for myself from now on, and I won't follow Yichen around anymore. So, I'm sorry, Uncle Pei, I can't take care of Yichen anymore, and I won't get a marriage certificate with him, because I've realized I don't like him anymore."

Wen Luoyao hung up the phone after she finished speaking.

Pei Zhengping stared at the phone that had been hung up, unable to recover for a long time.

He opened the ward door and stormed in, angrily questioning his son, "You brat, did you yell at Yao Yao again when she came to see you last time? She said she's always been ignored by you, and she's finally woken up and won't bother you anymore. Are you satisfied now?"

Pei Yichen lazily lifted his eyelids and said indifferently, "Last time she came, she insisted on staying to take care of me. Later, she went to the doctor to ask about my condition. After learning that I would never be able to stand up again, she left without looking back."

Pei Zhengping suddenly remembered something, immediately turned around and left the ward to go to the doctor's office to inquire about the situation.

The doctor was somewhat embarrassed and apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, Chairman Pei, how about I call Miss Wen myself to explain things?"

Pei Zhengping waved his hand, "No need, I'll explain it to her myself."

After leaving the doctor's office, he took out his phone and called Wen Luoyao.

But this time Wen Luoyao simply didn't answer the phone. When they called a second time, the phone was switched off.

Being treated so rudely by a junior, Pei Zhengping couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

He watched Wen Luoyao grow up from a young age.

Unexpectedly, despite her seemingly well-behaved and sweet-talking nature, she was actually quite rude at heart.

Forget it, I'd rather not have such an ill-mannered daughter-in-law.

Pei Zhengping put away his phone and walked into Pei Yichen's ward with a stern face.

As soon as you walk in, you see Jiang Shutong, who should be afraid of hardship and running around, busy serving Pei Yichen his meal.

When the woman saw him come in, she immediately smiled brightly. "Dad, you're here. Have you eaten? Sit down and eat with us."

This ward is a suite with a living room, dining table, and even a small kitchen where you can cook.

Because Pei Yichen has a wheelchair, he can move around freely.

Jiang Shutong placed the food directly on the dining table, where the space was spacious and it was more comfortable to eat.

Four dishes and a soup were neatly arranged on the dining table.

The moment Pei Zhengping walked in, he was greeted by a mouthful of delicious aromas. Looking at the colorful and fragrant dishes on the table, he couldn't help but swallow.

Jiang Shutong warmly handed him disposable chopsticks and a bowl. "Dad, sit down and eat. I originally made some for Li Kai, but he had to go back to the company to work overtime. It's good that you're here so we can eat together and avoid waste..."

Pei Zhengping maintained his stern expression. He snorted, "Don't even think about trying to win people over with food. Let me tell you, our Pei family will absolutely not accept you as our daughter-in-law..."

As he spoke, he had already sat down at the dining table.

Jiang Shutong didn't bother arguing with him. He was just an old man who said one thing but meant another, so why should she bother arguing with him?

Moreover, after Pei Yichen got into trouble, he immediately asked her to get a divorce, just so as not to delay her.

He's the epitome of someone who's tough on the outside but soft on the inside; his words may be barbed, but his intentions are always good.

The three of them sat down together for a meal, just like a real family of three.

Jiang Shutong prepared several dishes according to Pei Yichen's preferences, but because he was recuperating from his injuries, the flavors were a bit lighter than usual.

It's perfect for Pei Zhengping, a middle-aged and elderly man with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar.

Pei Zhengping ate with great relish.

To be fair, this woman is quite a good cook; her home-style dishes are even better than those made by Aunt Wang in the family.

Both father and son ate attentively, but neither wolfed down their food, and their every move retained the elegance of a wealthy family's dining etiquette.

No one spoke, so Jiang Shutong tried to lighten the mood by starting a conversation, "Dad, don't you have to do any work today?"

Pei Zhengping was no longer dressed as a migrant worker today; he was wearing a linen short-sleeved shirt and had taken off the expensive watch he usually wore.

She called him "Dad" so naturally that Pei Zhengping replied without thinking, "No need."

After answering, he realized he seemed to have gotten used to this form of address. He coughed lightly and asked, "Ms. Jiang, given my son's condition, are you really not planning to leave him?"

Even Wen Luoyao, who had liked Yichen for over twenty years, left decisively after hearing that he could no longer stand up.

Jiang Shutong, the woman in front of him, was merely a blind date for his son, with no feelings involved whatsoever.

Moreover, she didn't know that he was the heir to the Boyu Group. What was she after?

Jiang Shutong finished eating, put down her chopsticks, took a tissue to wipe her mouth, and said, "I won't divorce him. Married couples should share joys and sorrows. Just because he's sick or has an accident, does that mean I should divorce him?"

"Actually, my dad also broke his leg in an accident and will be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. My mom didn't divorce him either. I don't think I can be worse off than my mother, right?"

Although Liu Guixiang didn't divorce him back then mainly to get the 300,000 yuan compensation from her father, she has never abandoned him over the years.

Pei Zhengping finally understood that this lack of common sense was hereditary.

It seems she really doesn't want to leave anytime soon.

In another month, Pei Yichen will be almost able to stand up, and she will be even less willing to get a divorce.

Thinking of this, Pei Zhengping instantly lost his appetite.

He put down his chopsticks and asked bluntly, "Just tell me straight, what do you want for me to divorce Yichen?"

Pei Yichen's voice rang out coolly, "What? You want me to get a divorce so badly that the eldest daughter of the Wen family is willing to take care of me?"

Pei Zhengping was speechless for a moment, "Well, Yao Yao just misunderstood for a moment."

They misunderstood that Pei Yichen couldn't stand up.

Pei Yichen's tone turned colder, "Since she's unwilling, then you shouldn't worry about my marriage."

The meal ended in an unpleasant atmosphere.

After Jiang Shutong cleaned up the mess on the dining table, Pei Yichen maneuvered his wheelchair back to his desk.

Since they couldn't see eye to eye, Pei Zhengping also decided to leave.

As soon as he opened the ward door, a woman staggered and fell to the ground.

It's Liu Guixiang.

She awkwardly patted her clothes and got up from the ground. She glanced at Pei Yichen, then at Pei Zhengping, whose features were somewhat similar to hers, and immediately understood the relationship between the two.

"You must be his father? Perfect timing, your son is marrying my daughter, let's talk about the bride price!"
