Chapter 244 I’m Going to Sleep Alone

Pei Zhili was stunned at first, then he leaned his head on her shoulder and let her hug him.

At this moment, he had only one thought: if his mother could always be by his side and never disappear again, he would be willing to do anything for her.

Jiang Tingxia stroked his hair and said with emotion, "Xiao Li has really grown up and become more sensible. Sometimes I think, how nice it would be if you didn't grow up so quickly. I would like to participate more in your growth process."

Pei Zhili, “…”

He also felt that he was already eighteen years old.

Before, I hoped that I could grow up quickly, but now I hope that time can stop and stay at this perfect moment.

Jiang Suisui, who was standing by, grabbed the corner of Jiang Tingxia's clothes and said jealously, "Mommy, I haven't grown up yet. I'm still a baby. Please participate in my growth process!"

Jiang Tingxia suddenly smiled, hugged her and kissed her on the forehead, "Yes, you are still young, and this is the time when you need your mother to be by your side."

Then he looked at Jiang Qixing next to him and smiled, "Xiaoxing, the same goes for you. In fact, no matter how old you grow up, you are still my babies, forever."

In my memory, their crying for food and babbling just after birth are still so clear, no matter how much time has passed. It always feels like they haven't grown up yet.

Jiang Qixing pursed his lips, mustered up the courage to walk over, and lowered his head slightly in front of her.

Although he was only fifteen, he was already taller than Jiang Tingxia. Looking at his expectant eyes, Jiang Tingxia knew what he was thinking and reached out to ruffle his hair with amusement.

Jiang Qixing's tense expression suddenly relaxed, like a puppy that was satisfied after having its fur stroked.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling window, snowflakes were still falling and the weather was freezing cold.

However, this was the warmest and most harmonious Spring Festival that the Pei family had experienced in all these years.

...

After the Spring Festival, Pei Yanzhou had no choice but to throw himself into work. He did not forget that Jiang Tingxia said she wanted to see him film a costume political drama, so he took another script.

This is a TV series adapted from a top IP, and it was already very popular before filming even started. Coupled with the investment from Pei Group, it is a truly big production, and expectations are immediately high.

The director originally wanted Pei Yanzhou to play the male lead, but he ended up taking the second male lead role, a ruthless and ruthless villain who battles wits and courage with the male lead. The reason was that Jiang Tingxia said the role was very appealing and she liked it very much.

So even though his role was much smaller than that of the male lead, Pei Yanzhou was still very happy to take it on.

Of course, another advantage is that the second male lead has much fewer emotional scenes, and unlike the male lead, he does not have many intimate scenes with the female lead, which is more suitable for his physique as a married man.

He wanted Jiang Tingxia to go to the set with him, but this time the children refused to do anything.

Especially Pei Zhili, who said that he will take the college entrance examination next semester, and he has more motivation with his mother by his side.

Just kidding, they heard that the director of this TV series has very high requirements, so all the scenes are shot on location, even in the desert. With all this running around and a long shooting schedule, isn't Mom tired?

Besides, they were now used to their mother being around and couldn't stand her being away for so long.

Jiang Tingxia thought Pei Zhili would soon be taking the college entrance exam, and the pressure would inevitably be high in the final stages. Even though she had told him several times not to stress so much and just try his best, it would be fine.

But she knew his personality. Once he decided on something, he would do it, and he would want to do it to the best of his ability because of her. So, it would be better for her to stay and provide psychological counseling for the child...

"Mom, can we not go?"

Pei Zhili crossed his arms over his chest and looked at Pei Yanzhou with disdain. "He's old and can take care of himself. You don't have to worry about him. But we are different. We are still children."

Pei Yanzhou immediately glared at him and retorted, "Who said I asked your mother to take care of me? If that were the case, I should have brought a nanny. You said I can't be separated from her for so long, as if I can do that."

I have been inseparable from her all this time, so it goes without saying how difficult it would be if I were suddenly separated from her for several months.

Pei Yanzhou said unhappily, "Also, don't forget that you are already eighteen years old. You are an adult, or a child? You are quite shameless."

Jiang Suisui quickly chimed in, "If big brother isn't, then second brother and I are, right? We're in adolescence and rebelliousness right now, and we need our mother by our side!"

"Sui Sui, aren't you hurting Daddy's feelings by saying this? Daddy gives you so much pocket money every month..."

"So what? Some things cannot be measured by money!" Jiang Suisui said confidently.

Jiang Qixing also stood on the same front with her and Pei Zhili, with a firm expression, "Yeah."

Pei Yanzhou rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.

Okay, okay, okay. He has the lowest status in this family now. He is alone and cannot argue with these three little bastards.

Jiang Tingxia didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Alright, alright, stop arguing. I've already made up my mind. Xiaoli's college entrance exam is important during this period, so I'm staying."

Pei Zhili's eyes lit up, and the joy in his eyes was clearly visible.

Pei Yanzhou suddenly felt that his headache was even worse. "Okay, then I guess I'll be alone and sleepless for the next few months."

Pei Zhili retorted, "Just bear with it and it will pass. You should learn to regulate yourself at your age."

Pei Yanzhou discovered that this kid really liked to go against him. He never had a nice word in his mouth and was so infuriating that he wanted to kill himself.

"You little brat, who's that old? Haven't you heard of a man being as beautiful as a forty-one?"

Pei Zhili mocked him mercilessly, "Oh, I believe you when you say a man is in his prime at 18, but forget it at 40, he's almost as old as yesterday."

"If you want to say you're a flower, just say it." Pei Yanzhou's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. "Also, I want to discuss something with you. When you go out, don't say you're my son."

"Okay, don't say you are my dad." Pei Zhili said nonchalantly.

“……!!” Pei Yanzhou was so angry that he wanted to beat him up.

Jiang Tingxia laughed so hard that she fell backwards.

These father and son are simply enemies. They are always at loggerheads with each other when they meet.

But what is different from before is that the "tit-for-tat" nowadays does not have the slightest smell of gunpowder. It is just like an ordinary father and son who always dislike each other and say a few words to each other for no reason. It is unexpectedly harmonious.

The next day, Pei Yanzhou, who had no hope of bringing his wife to work, had to go alone reluctantly. Before leaving, he hugged Jiang Tingxia and kissed her for a long time reluctantly.

He rested his forehead against hers and looked at her deeply with his eyes lowered. "Remember to video chat with me every day, otherwise I will really be lonely."

Seeing his pitiful appearance, Jiang Tingxia felt a little sorry for him and kissed his chin. "I'm fine here, but are you free?"

"It can be found if you squeeze in time."

"Okay, no matter what, at least you have to report your safety to me every day, otherwise I will worry."

Hearing her say that she was worried about him, Pei Yanzhou felt relieved and raised the corner of his mouth, "Okay, I will."
