Chapter 1387 - I Only Want You (1/2)

“Alright.”

The nanny helped Pei Ling change into a fresh set of clothes and made him a bottle of milk before carrying him into Tian Tian’s car.

Tian Tian was dressed exceptionally fashionably and did not seem like she had given birth before. She placed lots of emphasis on her appearance and made a conscious effort to look good. She barely gained any weight during her pregnancy and managed to stay svelte.

Mrs. Pei’s home was a stone’s throw away and, thus, they did not take too long to get there.

Mrs. Pei would have passed away long ago if she didn’t receive the best treatment possible. However, despite being administered with the most potent medication available, her condition was still deteriorating with each passing day. She had become emaciated and bedridden.

Pei Yi would visit her every day, and so did Tian Tian, who would bring Pei Ling along. They made it a point to visit her every day, although the duration of their stay varied.

Pei Yi had arrived before them and was having a chat with his mother.

Upon the sight of them, Mrs. Pei waved while smiling and said, “Pei Ling, come to Grandma.”

The nanny stepped forward and placed Pei Ling on the bed.

Mrs. Pei held her grandson’s hand gleefully and asked, “What did you learn at school today?”

He remained silent and stared at his bedridden grandmother with a straight face.

The nanny hurriedly said, “The new teacher at the kindergarten praised Pei Ling for being very obedient.”

“Why is there a new teacher?”‘

“I don’t know. They said that the previous teacher had been transferred to the other classes to look after the older children. Hence, the new teacher is now looking after the toddlers. However, she’s only in charge of looking after two children and she seems to be doing a good job.”

Mrs. Pei snapped, “I wonder if she can really make the cut. When you send Pei Ling to the kindergarten tomorrow, give that teacher a warning. Tell her that if she dares to let my precious grandson get injured, I’ll never let her off!”

The nanny expressed assent softly.

Pei Yi interjected, “It’s only normal for children to slip and fall every now and then. Don’t spoil him rotten.”

Mrs. Pei chastised, “You’re so busy with work every day and you barely spend any time with Pei Ling. He doesn’t seem to be very close to you either. Children his age require the most parental love and concern. You two must shower my precious grandson with more love and concern. Hear me?”

Tian Tian smiled and said, “Mother, rest assured, we will. It’d be inappropriate if we neglect our own child.”

Mrs. Pei nodded and said, “That’s true. The three of you, go have dinner later. Pei Yi, stop being so preoccupied with work such that you neglect your wife and son.”

Pei Yi answered with a nod, “Got it.”

During the journey back in the car, Tian Tian asked, “Where should we go for dinner?”

“You may go home for dinner. I’ll take Pei Ling back to Mount Qingping. I’ll send him to school every day from now on.”

Tian Tian said in astonishment, “Have you decided to listen to Mother and show more care for our son?”

“You don’t have to care about this,” he said sluggishly.

Tian Tian was rather glad to hear his decision. Ever since Pei Ling was born, Pei Yi had barely taken care of him or showed him much concern. Tian Tian had always regarded his nonchalance as a form of disdain toward her. However, after seeing that he had begun paying more attention to Pei Ling, she knew that she could use her son as a trump card to win Pei Yi’s heart.

Pei Ling sat quietly in the child booster seat in the backseat during the car ride.

Pei Yi stared at Pei Ling’s reflection in the rear-view mirror and found that his son’s eyes, nose, and brows were almost identical to his. Pei Ling’s lips and face shape were the only features that did not resemble his.

He knew clearly whose lips and face shape Pei Ling’s resembled.
