Chapter 782 - 782: Secure for the Next Few Hundreds of Years
Bian Tong’s gaze flew left and right as he stuttered, “my hand…it…”
Pei Huai then took off his hat, sunglasses, and mask.
He reached out and pulled open the collar of his sweater.
The condition of his face was better.
At first glance, there was nothing wrong, but on closer inspection, one could still see traces of transparency.
Pei Huai frowned. His gaze followed the skin on his cheek and went all the way down to his neck, then his collarbone…
There was a sliding door next to them, and it was half-closed at the moment.
When the flight attendant passed by, he heard the commotion and subconsciously looked inside.
The scene he saw!
CEO Pei pulled Mr. Bian’s collar open. His scorching gaze was about to burn his skin!
The flight attendant only dared to take a glance at Bian Tong, but he didn’t have time to see the translucent parts of Bian Tong’s body. He thought that it was a problem with the lighting.
Then, he turned around. The flight attendant leaned against the wall and pressed his hand against the door behind him. His chest rose and fell, and his breathing was rapid.
He knew this trip was not ordinary!!!
At this moment, inside the sliding door, Pei Huai’s gaze was indeed scorching hot. The flight attendant was not mistaken.
The two of them were speechless. Just like that, an unknown amount of time passed.
Pei Huai’s grip loosened and fell to his side.
He stood up straight and looked down at Bian Tong, who was sitting on the sofa.
Bian Tong didn’t dare to look at him. He lowered his head and his body wasn’t as straight as usual. His long legs stepped on the ground, looking a little sloppy.
Two hands were placed on the armrest of the sofa. The hand that was still wearing a black glove could still be seen, while the other was completely transparent.
He could only see his movements by the marks on his sleeves.
“It has nothing to do with you”
He sounded casual.
He looked at his feet. “This is my choice.”
Pei Huai did not say a word. His expression was very cold and his eyes were deep.
After a few minutes, Bian Tong finally raised his head and smiled.
“Don’t be so serious,” he said. “I can’t be a human for a few hundred years, but
I’ve been a human for thousands of years. It’s good to change it up.”
Pei Huai clenched his jaw. That day, he asked himself what he wanted to do if he did not want to be a human in his next life. It turned out that at that time…he already had a plan..
“What will you become?” Pei Huai asked him.
Bian Tong shrugged his shoulders. “These things are all random. If I can decide for myself, it won’t be considered a punishment, but…” He suddenly relaxed and said teasingly, “I definitely won’t be a tree, especially a lychee tree. Otherwise, when Ms. Su comes back, she’ll definitely eat all my children and grandchildren. ”
Pei Huai did not laugh.
Bian Tong, on the other hand, laughed to himself for a while. When the laughter died down, he looked at his Pei Huai’s unchanging expression and frowned dejectedly. “Isn’t it funny?”
“It’s lame,” Pei Huai said.
“Ts there a wav?” This was the first aqestion he asked Bian Tong-
Bian Tong shook his head. “Once it starts, it’s irreversible.”
The second question he asked was, “how much time do we have left?”
Bian Tong calculated. “At this rate…a month.”
Pei Huai:
His tall figure landed on Bian Tong’s body, his deep voice filled with determination.
“I owe you.”
“Don’t say that.” Bian Tong scratched the back of his head as if he was flattered.
“You saved my life before. Now, it’s just me repaying you…”
“I said I owe you,” he interrupted. “That’s what I owe you. Listen.”
He looked at Bian Tong and made a solemn promise, “no matter what you become, I will find you. Leave your hundreds of years of peace to me until you reincarnate.”
Bian Tong’s fingers on the sofa’s armrest tightened. For some reason, his nose felt a little sour.
If he couldn’t suppress his emotions, he would be embarrassing himself in front of Pei Huai.
He took a deep breath, and then another deep breath. Finally, before anyone could see through his tears, he broke into a smile. “Sure, with your words, I’ll be secure for the next hundreds of years-
At the same time, at the hospital.
After a few days, Xu Mingzhi came to the hospital again. Wei Wei came with her, carrying the cream cake they bought on the way here.
Xu Mingzhi didn’t think of this, but Wei Wei did.
In the past, every time Madam came home from work, she would always ask her to drive to that cake shop and bring a few new seasonal products for Miss.
Recently, CEO Xu had been busy with work. She finally had time to visit Miss today. How could she forget to bring snacks?
When Wei Wei suggested this, the car had already turned into the cake shop.
Xu Mingzhi was resting with her eyes closed, so she didn’t say anything.
In the ward, the original owner took the cake box from Wei Wei and opened it, her eyes filled with joy.
“Thank you, mom.” Her smile was sweet and blissful. “I love strawberry cake.”
Xu Mingzhi nodded. Then, she noticed the messy buttons on her hospital gown. “Why are all the buttons buttoned wrong?”
The original owner’s expression changed, and she quickly lowered her head to take a look.
Xu Mingzhi frowned and called the nurse over. “What did I pay you to do? Is this how you take care of my daughter…”
Xu Mingzhi only paused for a moment before she corrected herself. “Is this how you take care of the Miss?”
The nurse placed her hands in front of her and lowered her head nervously to apologize.
The original owner said that it had nothing to do with the nurse. She was the one who didn’t pay attention when she was buttoning up just now.
Xu Mingzhi’s gaze returned to the original owner.
She said she was buttoning it up just now.
However, it was already night time…
Xu Mingzhi’s sharp gaze swept around the ward. When she looked back, she glanced at the bedside behind the original owner. Although she retracted her gaze, the original owner’s expression still looked awkward for a moment.
At the same time, she tucked her hands under the pillow.
Xu Mingzhi didn’t ask her anything but asked the nurse to follow her. Before the nurse left, she looked at the original owner for help, but before she could speak, the nurse was taken away.
The original owner looked at them.
The position of the door was awkward, and her line of sight was soon blocked. She turned sideways to look, but when the nurse entered the other room, Xu Mingzhi closed the door behind her.
She couldn’t see anything.
“Miss,” Wei Wei cut a piece of cake and handed it to her. “There’s your favorite ice cream in the cake. Eat it now. It’ll melt in a while.”
“Ah.” The original owner retracted her gaze. “Thank you, Ms. Wei.”
Wei Wei followed her gaze and smiled. “Director Xu asked the nurse to go in because she’s concerned about you. Don’t think too much.”
The original owner smiled awkwardly and glanced behind her.. Under the pillow was the coat that she had changed into after rushing back to the ward…
