Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: The System Screwed Me Over Big Time

Pei Yan: "..."

He pulled back a little, "Didn't I just give you the card."

When Pei Yan said this, he only felt a pang in his heart.

Qin Yun looked at the card still in her hand, thinking about how couples in this world interact, she said confidently, "But you're my husband. If you don't buy it for me, do I have to buy it myself?"

"Oh, right, someone invited me..." Qin Yun finished speaking and looked at Pei Yan, suddenly remembered there was still another sum of money!

She immediately turned around to open the door, said to the man in black at the door, "Tell Mr. Pei's son, um... Pei Yan is awake, and I'm hungry, I want a lot of delicious food, enough for five people! No, ten people! Hurry up, please."

"Really? Yan'er is awake?"

An excited voice suddenly came from the direction behind Qin Yun. The next second, a woman who appeared to be just over forty and well-maintained grabbed her hand, asking excitedly.

Behind her was the Mr. Pei she had just seen. After his initial shock, he was also joyful, "Pei Yan is really awake?"

Being stared at intensely by the two of them, especially by Mrs. Pei with her slightly reddened eyes, her excited yet worried gaze made Qin Yun a bit uncomfortable as she swallowed, "Uh, right?"

Qin Yun wasn't very good at handling such situations, she immediately stepped aside to let the two elders in, but she stayed outside the door, letting the man in black go buy her some food.

The world is vast, but eating is the most important.

Besides, since it didn't concern her, how could it stop her from eating?

As soon as Mrs. Pei saw Pei Yan, tears immediately welled up, she grabbed Pei Yan's hand, trying to touch the wound on his head, but he dodged, "Yan'er, are you really okay?"

Looking at the sudden appearance of his original parents, the usually cold and composed Pei Yan stiffened, "I'm fine."

Qin Yun leaned against the door, watching Pei Yan's expression almost crumble, feeling gloating.

Both were big figures in the Heavenly Court, especially where emotions were cold and disconnected, it was a place full of self-proclaimed high-and-mighty immortals, when had they ever been 'cared' for like this.

Mr. Pei tried to stay calm and immediately called the director.

The Pei Family was very famous in A City, and they had donated plenty of equipment to this hospital.

Upon receiving the call, the director hurried over, followed by several chief doctors as he entered the room.

Mr. Pei spoke nervously, "Quickly examine him to see if there are any sequelae, so that afterwards, everything is fine, right?"

The director was also somewhat nervous and excited, but he still comforted them, "Don't worry, let me take a look. If it's true, then Young Master Pei really is a medical miracle."

After all, they hadn't seen someone diagnosed as a vegetative one day and awake in a few hours with no sequelae before, that would indeed be a medical miracle.

Besides, he was the heir to the Pei Family, if anything happened to him here, it wouldn't look good on the hospital's reputation, not to mention the Pei Family was their hospital's major benefactor.

A group of people surrounded Pei Yan conducting various checks. After half an hour, the director finally breathed a sigh of relief, reporting to Mr. Pei, "After examination and consultation, Young Master Pei has no abnormalities except for the wound on his head, he can be discharged today."

Mrs. Pei's heart calmed down, but she immediately remembered what her husband had said about her son possibly becoming a vegetative state, living in bed in the future, and she immediately questioned, "Then why did you say my son would become a vegetative state earlier?"

"This..." The director's smile stiffened, unsure of how to explain.

He also didn't know what was going on, when Pei Yan was sent over, all examinations indeed showed symptoms of a vegetative state, who knew he would wake up in a few hours on his own?

Mr. Pei obviously thought of Qin Yun's matter, but didn't expect the effect to be so quick, immediately tried to smooth things over, "It's okay that Yan'er is awake, I'll explain it to you later."

He then let the director and others leave, pulling Mrs. Pei aside to explain.

After listening to Mr. Pei's explanation, Mrs. Pei's eyes grew brighter and fonder as she looked at Qin Yun, increasingly liking her. Such a beautiful girl was her daughter-in-law. She had previously thought with her son's stoic personality, he might be alone for life. Unexpectedly, he found such a blessed daughter-in-law.

Qin Yun felt jittery under Mrs. Pei's gaze.

Mrs. Pei quickly walked up to Qin Yun, took her hand joyously, and said kindly, "Old Pei told me everything, rest assured, he promised shares to you, and I'll make sure he prepares the stock transfer agreement quickly. I didn't know about this before coming and didn't have time to prepare a gift. This bracelet I just bought at auction last month, from god knows what dynasty, I'll give it to you as a meeting gift. No need to dislike it, next time I'll get you something better."

As she spoke, she took off a red jade bracelet, putting it on Qin Yun, patting her hand, and continued, "By the way, when are you planning to hold the wedding? Don't worry, I'm an open-minded mother-in-law, I won't rush you about having kids. You can live wherever you want, just visit us at the old house a few times a year."

Hearing about having children, she instinctively glanced in Pei Yan's direction, only to see him indifferently watching elsewhere, as if sensing her gaze, he looked over dispassionately, as if silently asking: What's up?

Qin Yun choked a bit, pondering how to handle the current situation when the elevator doors opened.

The man in black walked out, carrying a food box in each hand, heading straight for the ward's entrance.

The sound of the elevator doors briefly interrupted the seemingly harmonious scene.

Mr. Pei walked over, taking Mrs. Pei's hand, and said, "Ah Yin, you startled her."

Upon seeing the food boxes in the man in black's hands, Qin Yun forgot about the current situation she had to face.

Her eyes gleamed as she stared fixedly at the food boxes, licking her lips, "...Why don't I get a bite to eat first?"

Everyone: "..."

"Since Yan'er is fine, we will leave you now. Rest assured, we will keep our promise to you." Mr. Pei awkwardly paused for a second, but then quickly recovered and said.

Qin Yun's eyes never left the food boxes, eagerly stepping forward, she nodded hastily at Mr. Pei's words, waving her hand briskly as long as she could eat, not fight over food with her.

Yet as Mr. Pei instructed a bunch and left with Mrs. Pei, Qin Yun's peach blossom eyes suddenly blinked, feeling that something seemed off.

She just wanted to get a meal, how come she's now somehow involved in having a child?!

The system really set her up this time!!
