Yan Yincheng had the sharpest senses. As soon as he approached the car, he heard the breathing sounds of others around. At that moment, he became vigilant.
When that person suddenly rushed out, the somewhat flurried footsteps gave away their position. Before they even got close enough to touch a corner of Xu Zixi's clothes, Yan Yincheng had already kicked out.
Xu Zixi also reacted quickly. Thanks to the sixth sense of danger developed from years of training, as soon as the person was kicked flying by Yan Yincheng, she immediately stepped forward to restrain the hand holding the weapon. With a hard twist, the knife fell to the ground, accompanied by the wail of a familiar woman.
Hearing this voice, Xu Zixi didn't even need to turn on the light to know who it was.
She couldn't help rolling her eyes. Xu Zixi kicked the knife on the ground away and said coldly to the woman howling in pain on the ground, "Pei Weiwei, I haven't offended you recently, have I? What do you plan to do by hiding here with a knife?"
The two kids were already so sleepy that they were about to fall asleep. But when they saw their daddy and mommy team up and subdue the person in a few moves, they couldn't help clapping their hands and cheering, "Daddy and mommy are so amazing!"
Since Yan Yincheng and Xu Zixi hadn't seen who it was clearly just now, they had used quite a bit of force. As a result, Pei Weiwei's right arm that was holding the knife had been dislocated. The excruciating pain from her shoulder blade made her whole body tremble uncontrollably.
First mocked by Xu Zixi and then hearing the cheering of the two kids, Pei Weiwei's emotions became even more radical.
"It's all because of you two shameless man and woman! Xu Zixi, if it weren't for you, how could my pregnancy have been exposed! Yan, if it weren't for you, how could our Pei Group have fallen into such a dangerous situation! How could my father have been so angry that he had a stroke and was hospitalized! It's all because of you two. You've caused our Pei Group heavy losses. I must make you pay the price!"
The next second, the cold blind stick was pointed at her vulnerable throat. Yan Yincheng said coldly, "Watch your mouth. Otherwise, I can't guarantee what will happen next."
Pei Weiwei was silenced by the cold metal stick on her throat.
"Business competition is all about the survival of the fittest. Your father and brother admitted themselves that the problem lies with the Pei Group. Who do you think you are to yell at me here and even try to hurt my woman and children? If the Pei Group ever goes bankrupt one day, it won't be because of poor management, but because of your stupidity."
Yan Yincheng said coldly. He picked up his phone and made a call. As soon as the call was connected, Pei Mingyuan's voice came from the other end. "Mr. Yan?"
"Pei Mingyuan, five minutes ago, your stupid sister Pei Weiwei tried to hurt Zixi and my kids with a weapon. I won't let this go easily. If the chance of cooperation between the Yan Group and the Pei Group was 70% before, now it's only 30%. You figure out how to deal with Pei Weiwei yourself. If there's a next time, I'll make sure the Pei Group completely disappears from Haicheng. I mean what I say."
"What?! I'm sorry, Mr. Yan. It's my fault that I didn't watch her well! I... I apologize on her behalf!"
But Yan Yincheng didn't even listen to his explanation. He hung up the phone neatly and said to Xu Zixi, "Zixi, let's go home."
"No, no, you can't leave!" Pei Weiwei realized from her brother's reaction that she might have really messed things up. She propped herself up and tried to chase after them, but their car had already driven away, leaving her with a face full of exhaust fumes.
Not long after, Duan Jia, who had received her call, rushed over and helped her up from the ground.
"Wuwuwu, Duan Jia, my arm hurts so much," Pei Weiwei cried. "Is my arm going to break?"
Duan Jia quickly said, "Don't worry. Don't move around. I'll take you to the hospital right away!"
A moment later, when Pei Mingyuan rushed over in a hurry, Pei Weiwei was nowhere to be seen in the underground garage.
In the emergency room of Renkang Hospital, a shrill scream like that of a pig being slaughtered rang out, making the patients waiting in line outside can't help but crane their necks to look inside. Inside the room, Pei Weiwei, whose arm had finally been put back in place, collapsed in Duan Jia's arms, crying out of breath.
"Okay, okay, be good. Don't cry. Look, you've made your face all messy."
Pei Weiwei sniffled and said, "Duan Jia, please be fair to me. It was clearly the Yan Group that suddenly cancelled the cooperation, which made Dad so angry that he was hospitalized! I'm not wrong! Am I right?"
Duan Jia said, "You have a filial heart for your uncle. You just want to make the Pei Group better. What's wrong with you?"
"But... but just now I heard Mr. Yan say that the chance of cooperation between the Pei Group and the Yan Group was 70% before, but because of me, now it's only 30%. Duan Jia, have I dragged my brother and Dad down again? I just wanted, just wanted to avenge Dad and my brother..."
She had buried her face in Duan Jia's arms, so she didn't see the cold look that flashed across Duan Jia's face. 30%? There shouldn't even be this 30%.
The man's clean and gentle palm stroked her hair again and again, coaxing her softly. She felt drowsy. Just as she was about to tell Duan Jia that she wanted to go home, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.
"Duan... Duan Jia, my stomach hurts so much!"
After Pei Weiwei said that, she fainted in Duan Jia's arms.
When Pei Mingyuan received the call and rushed to Renkang Hospital, Pei Weiwei was still in a coma. Only Duan Jia was guarding beside the hospital bed. Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, Duan Jia got up and looked behind him. His expression instantly became extremely sad.
Duan Jia's expression gave Pei Mingyuan a bad feeling.
As he got closer and saw his sister's pale and bloodless face, he felt even more heart - broken. Before he came, he was extremely angry about her reckless action tonight and had planned to come and scold her. But seeing her like this now, he couldn't say those words of reproach.
"How is Weiwei?"
Duan Jia looked back at the sleeping Pei Weiwei, then pulled Pei Mingyuan aside a bit. First, he let out a sigh and then whispered to him, "Weiwei's baby... is gone."
Saying that, he handed the report issued by the doctor to Pei Mingyuan.
The report in his hand clearly stated that Pei Weiwei had miscarried. Pei Mingyuan's face suddenly darkened. "How could this happen!"
"Maybe the turmoil of the Pei Group and Uncle's illness have stimulated her. She thought it was all because the Yan Group cancelled the cooperation with the Pei Group. So tonight, she avoided me, found out the whereabouts of Mr. Yan and Miss Xu, and then went to find them on her own. I think... that's probably how she lost the baby."
Duan Jia sighed.
Pei Mingyuan closed his eyes tightly and unconsciously clenched the report in his hand.
"My baby..." came Pei Weiwei's lost voice from behind. "Is my baby really gone?"
