In the hospital ward, when Lin Man's eyes fell on the man in front of her, she was stunned for a moment, her eyes full of disbelief.

After a moment, she found her voice and blurted out, "Why are you here? And how did you happen to save me?"

It’s not that Lin Man was so surprised, but Pei Zhenting’s whereabouts were uncertain. He was involved in confidential work, so few people had seen his face. There was not even a single photo of him in the family portrait.

At this moment, he appeared in front of Lin Man and saved her, which did make her a little dazed, but Lin Man had no doubt about the truthfulness of the man's words, because his face was so similar to Pei Yan!

Pei Zhenting sat opposite Lin Man, and even his movements of touching the cigarette and thinking were exactly the same as Pei Yan's. He held the cigarette but did not smoke it. "It's not a coincidence."

"Although I am not at home all year round, one is my son and the other is my wife. I always want to know what happened at home, whether the mother and son are doing well, whether anyone bullies my son, and whether anyone deceives my wife."

This... is true, but the Pei family is well-known, who can bully them?

"You... are right."

"Really? I don't think you think so."

Lin Man immediately perked up, "How could it be?"

Pei Zhenting withdrew his gaze. The door was suddenly pushed open and Si Lianghua walked in. He smiled at Lin Man and then said, "Sir, A Yan has transferred all the ships. Now the commander-in-chief..."

He leaned close to Pei Zhenting's ear, but Lin Man couldn't hear clearly, so she could only lean on the bed and stare at them in a daze.

Seeing Pei Zhenting laughed, "He didn't even clean up his own son's ass, and he wants to touch my son. You go and talk to him. Either you live in peace, or no one will live."

Si Lianghua nodded. She was not surprised by Pei Zhenting's attitude. Instead, Lin Man was a little surprised. She chuckled, "I thought you wouldn't care."

Indeed, Pei Zhenting's style towards his son is to not care, but that is all on the surface. He sat there with a calm breath, as if the time around him had slowed down.

"I still have to take care of what I should take care of. I have to protect my son."

After he finished speaking, he took a deep breath and looked at Lin Man's belly, "You are a mother for the first time, so you must protect your child in the future."

Lin Man's cheeks turned red. She was the one who didn't take good care of the child. She felt strange but still went. She had made sufficient preparations but was still a step late. "Child...is he okay now?"

Pei Zhenting smiled, his voice somewhat loving, "You just remembered to ask?"

Not really…

It’s just that mother and child are connected by heart, and she can feel that the baby is doing well in her belly.

"The kid is fine. I just pulled you out of the water. You just caught a cold. The medicine Lianghua prepared is as mild as his. You'll be fine. I heard that you knew Lianghua before? He was planning to give you a car?"

Pei Zhenting looked at Lin Man and startled her. This...

Nodding, "Indeed, I have."

"Ah."

"Do you still want to leave now?"

"Ah?" Lin Man was confused.

Pei Zhenting said: "You bought a plane ticket to go abroad, but it is too late now. If you still want to go, let Lianghua buy the ticket for you."

"I……"

Lin Man didn't expect Pei Zhenting to know this. Seeing that she remained silent, he nodded and said, "Since you can't make a decision now, just heal your wounds here and then decide whether to stay or go next."

"Aren't you going to tell Pei Yan that I'm here?"

She didn't know how far Pei Yan would go for her, but she just heard that Pei Yan had transferred all the ships away, which must have something to do with her. It seemed that he had been looking for her all the time.

Pei Zhenting had already walked to the door, stopped and turned around and said: "He has his own child, so of course he has to find it himself."

Pei Zhenting looked at Lin Man deeply.

Anyway, he will come here sooner or later.

-

however.

At this moment, Pei Yan has indeed found Lin Man's whereabouts!

Under Pei Zhenting's deliberate misleading, he went around in circles and finally opened the door of Ji Ze's ward that afternoon. At that time, Ji Ze was taking medicine.

Seeing Pei Yan coming, he put down the medicine bowl and chuckled, "I don't have anything to treat you, but Ah Yan, I didn't expect you to come to see me. I thought you didn't want to see me in this life."

Ji Ze coughed twice with a pale face. Pei Yan sneered coldly, "Ji Ze, there is no one here anymore. Is there any point in you pretending like this?"

"Deputy commander of the Ice Sea Battleship?"

Pei Yan looked at Ji Ze coldly.

The curtains were half-drawn, and under the dim light, his face flickered. Ji Ze sighed.

"A Yan, the matter of the Ice Sea Battleship happened a long time ago. Back then, the two of us suddenly retired from the army and went into business. Wasn't it to bury the secret in the sea so that our respective families would not be implicated? Is there any meaning in you bringing it up again now?"

Pei Yan sneered, looked at Ji Ze calmly and said, "Lin Man fell into the sea, and there is no trace of her body. I sent so many people to look for her, but they couldn't find her."

"It's just that I was thinking that you and I became enemies because of a woman, and now she's dead, I should tell you this news, otherwise how can I let you suffer the same pain as me?"

He had a cold smile on his lips and just looked at Ji Ze.

Ji Ze's eyes instantly turned cold, and he looked back at Pei Yan, "Really? Then please accept my condolences, President Pei, and congratulate Manman. She can finally be free and doesn't need to repeat the same mistakes again."

Pei Yan frowned slightly. He noticed what Ji Ze said about repeating the same mistakes. He always said strange things with Lin Man, but soon, his eyes changed from cold to bright. He quickly walked to the head of Ji Ze's bed, looked down at him, and raised the corners of his lips.

"It is true. Lin Man is not dead, right?"

"You know where she is, or you have a clue about her."

This is an affirmative sentence. Ji Ze likes Lin Man, but when he learned the news that she fell into the sea and disappeared, he did not feel sad at all, not even shocked. He never pulled him aside to ask about the situation. So there can only be one possibility: Ji Ze has clues about Lin Man!

Ji Ze paused as he was about to pick up the bowl. He did not deny Pei Yan's words, "So what if there are clues? At that time, even people who can swim would have frozen to death."

He raised his lips, looked at Pei Yan cruelly, and said in a gentle tone: "A Yan, in my opinion, you should not put your hands on the sea again. You should check the wreckage in that sea area. Maybe you can bring Manman's bones back earlier and bury them in peace."

As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Yan suddenly stood up with quick and sharp movements, his whole body exuding an irrepressible anger. He took a step forward and grabbed Ji Ze by the collar. His five fingers turned white due to the force, and his knuckles trembled slightly, as if he was trying his best to suppress his anger.
