Their cheeks were almost pressed together. Although Madam Xu’s face was pale, her expression looked very satisfied. The scene was extremely heartwarming.

The photo was taken secretly after Ms. Xu fell asleep, but her daughter was not asleep at that time.

Her watery eyes were like sapphires as she looked at her grandmother with a clear purpose.

Sapphires…

When this adjective appeared in Su Ji’s mind, she looked at the photo again. Her fingertips pinched the screen and zoomed in. In the photo, she clearly captured a faint blue light flashing in her daughter’s big eyes.

Su Ji pursed her lips slightly.

This was not the first time she had seen that blue light in her daughter’s eyes.

She sent a voice message to Aunt Wu. “Were there any blue lights or screens around when you took the photos?”

Aunt Wu only replied after a while. “No, Miss. The nurse specifically said that the baby’s eyes need protection, so we definitely won’t turn on the flash when we take photos.”

Su Ji replied, “got it.”

Just as she put away her phone, the door to the other room opened.

Pei Huai ended the video conference and came out.

Su Ji sat on the chair and looked at him. “Did you help him open those branches?”

She raised her chin at Bian Guanshi, who was tied up, and her words seemed to have the intention of punishing him.

Pei Huai put away his phone and stood up straight. “Only one is related to me.”

“…” Su Ji had a terrible headache.

She peeled a lychee candy and put it into her mouth.

She held it in her mouth.

However, it seemed that even the sweetness of sugar could not dispel the bitterness in her heart.

Su Ji knew that Pei Huai was not to blame for this. Shee could not blame anyone else.

For Madam Xu to exchange her life for it, it must be something that even she could not give up.

However, when people were extremely depressed, they would always find an excuse to vent.

Therefore, Su Ji could not help but hate all the factors that led Madam Xu to make that deal. Of course, this included herself.

“You can hate everyone, but don’t hate yourself.”

Pei Huai’s voice sounded from above.

Su Ji looked at him.

He walked up to her and squatted down. He placed his hands on the armrest of the chair and held her hand at the same time.

Su Ji looked down at him, her long and messy eyelashes glistening with tears. She said, enunciating each word, “if she dies, I’ll never forgive myself.”

Xu Mingzhi had lived for her all her life. In the end, she used her precious life to make a deal with the heavens for her.

She couldn’t get over this hurdle.

“Then don’t let her die,” Pei Huai said.

Su Ji’s long eyelashes trembled as she looked at him abruptly.

Although it was just a kind consolation, it still made Su Ji feel much better to a certain extent.

“Meow-”

Xiao Tong shuttled around Su Ji’s feet, meowing.

It was as if he was comforting her.

Xiao Lingxian straightened her body towards Pei Huai and used her tender little claws to press down on the man’s leg, acting coquettishly with him.

However, Pei Huai only had Su Ji in his eyes.

Su Ji looked at the two mischievous little fellows. “If there was really such a way, they wouldn’t be here.”

Pei Huai held his wife’s hand, his fingers tightening.

After half a minute of silence, he suddenly looked at Shen Mu, who was on standby, and Bian Guanshi, who had yet to wake up. “Bring a basin of cold water over.”

Shen Mu:

Pei Huai said, “wake him up.”

Shen Mu:

This time, not only Shen Mu, but even Xiao Tong, who had been playing by Su Ji’s feet, stopped in his tracks. All the hair on his body stood on end in fear!

“Yes…” Shen Mu walked away mechanically.

Although he didn’t know if this old man who was almost a hundred years old could withstand this splash, the CEO had given the order. Everything depended on the old man’s luck!

In no time, a basin of cold water that was close to freezing point was served!

How big was that pot?

The 1.9-meter-tall bodyguard carried it, and the muscles on his arms bulged.

Xiao Tong nervously looked at the basin of cold water, then looked at his grandfather who had fallen into a trap because of his gluttony!

“Meow!”

It suddenly jumped down from Su Ji’s lap, spread its two furry little paws, and pounced on its grandfather.

The moment it got close, its two small claws opened up sharply like a Wolverine, reflecting the light outside the window!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three small claw marks scratched his grandfather’s face. Bian Guanshi’s long eyebrows twitched. He was really awake!
