The Good Dad System (Arc 8) Chapter 64.1: After the Daughter Married Into a Wealthy Family (25)
The First People’s Hospital of City B is well-known throughout the country. In recent years, its revenue has repeatedly hit new highs. The several VIP wards in the hospital are decorated at the level of standard rooms in ordinary star-rated hotels. Of course, the prices have also risen accordingly, especially for several single rooms, which are separated into inside and outside, and have small coffee tables and sofas outside that are specially used for reception.
Given Pei Naochun’s physical condition, no matter what the matter was, it was impossible for him to go to the reception room outside to discuss it. Even though she was a little reluctant, Pei Daijun still allowed the two of them into the inner room.
“Please sit down.” Pei Daijun took two plastic chairs and put them down, then sat on her father’s bed. She looked at the two of them indifferently, and when she turned to her father, her face suddenly changed, and her brows softened. “Dad, do you want to take a rest? If you are tired, let’s talk outside.” If her father had not repeatedly reminded her last night that he would take care of everything and she should not hide anything from him, she might have really been able to do things on her own.
“Not tired, just raise the bed higher. After all, he’s here to apologize to me.” He dragged out the last syllable, with hidden meaning in his words.
Sheng Junhao clenched his fists, first looked at Pei Daijun busying around, then looked at Pei Naochun lying there, motionless, as if there really was some big problem. The nameless fire in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
What kind of pretense is this? Is he pretending to be a fraud? If you want to act, you have to do it completely, and make it flawless? Really, he was wrong.
Lawyer Xie saw that Sheng Junhao was in a bad mood, so he carefully nudged him twice with his elbow. When he looked over, he quickly shook his head, signaling him to calm down. He had started communicating with Sheng Junhao since last night, and the other party had been in a bad mood. He repeatedly emphasized that although he had cheated, Pei Naochun and Pei Daijun had been plotting against him from beginning to end. He was even indignant and repeatedly asked him whether filing a lawsuit or sending a lawyer’s letter would work. Because of this background, Lawyer Xie had been very cautious, fearing that he would enter the house and start making trouble, and by the time he calmed down, things would have been out of control.
“Mr. Pei.” Sheng Junhao spoke clearly with a grim expression on his face. “I’m here today to apologize to you for my inappropriate behavior yesterday.” He never mentioned the titles like Dad and Father-in-law that he used to call him.
Pei Daijun had just finished her troubles, and when she heard the name, she was stunned for a moment, and then calmly returned to her seat. The other party was even more eager to cut off this relationship than she was. Thinking of this, she felt even more sorry for herself, and didn’t know what kind of person she had fallen in love with.
“Well, it was quite inappropriate. I heard your apology. Is there anything else?” Pei Naochun responded with a smile and immediately sent the guest away.
Lawyer Xie interrupted: “Mr. Pei, we are here to discuss how to mediate. After all, as you know, both of you fought at the time. My client was impulsive and didn’t know how to control the severity of his blows, which is why he accidentally hurt you. He is very sincere and is willing to pay your medical expenses and give you some additional compensation.”
“We can afford the medical expenses.” Pei Daijun interrupted coldly.
Sheng Junhao held his breath and looked at Pei Daijun with anger in his eyes: “We are husband and wife, do you have to make such a fuss? You must send me to jail before you are satisfied, right?” In his heart, he still felt that Pei Daijun did not know the seriousness of the matter and did not even care about the relationship between husband and wife. “Can’t we just part ways amicably? Do you have to make it to the headlines and become the topic of conversation among the neighbors before you are satisfied?”
He didn’t know that in her previous life, Pei Daijun had begged him like this. At that time, she clasped her hands tightly, and even though she was holding hatred in her heart, she still begged: “We are husband and wife, please let my father go, okay?” Of course, Pei Daijun did not receive mercy from her husband at that time, but instead made one condition after another.
“You beat my dad into the hospital, and now you’re telling me that we’re husband and wife?” Pei Daijun laughed out loud, but her heart was filled with sadness. “When you lied to the girl and flirted with her in the office, did you ever think about parting ways with me in peace? Did you ever consider my feelings?”
Sheng Junhao was stunned for a moment, then retorted: “I was clearly being beaten by your father at that time. I was in so much pain that I had no strength left. How could I have hit him?” He was embarrassed to mention his own unspeakable secret. At that time, his important parts were hurt, and his whole body was weak and he had no strength. How could he have hurt anyone?
“Are you saying we lied to you?” Pei Daijun opened the drawer and threw out a few medical records. “Go and see the doctor at home. We only cooperated with the police and did not exaggerate the injuries and only asked them to investigate as soon as possible. We have done our utmost.”
Seeing Pei Daijun’s resolute look, Sheng Junhao couldn’t help but doubt himself – could it be that he really misunderstood? Could it be that he was so strong at that time that he couldn’t feel the force of his kick?
Pei Naochun was behind, quietly supporting his daughter – the highest level of fraud is that even the person being fraudulently scammed believes what you say.
“Okay, let’s not talk about this.” Sheng Junhao awkwardly changed the subject. “Your father posted the video he shot online. After a night of fermentation, netizens’ exaggeration has caused a huge impact on Tiansheng Group. Watching the group’s stock price fluctuate, our years of hard work have been hit. Do you feel comfortable?”
Although Pei Daijun knew about her father’s video, she went to bed early last night and didn’t check her phone. She didn’t know how serious the situation was. She didn’t think it would be serious. The public relations department of Tiansheng Group was not a freeloader. But she subconsciously chose to stand on her father’s side: “Did my father distort the facts in the video he posted and what he said?”
“……” Sheng Junhao did not answer.
