Chapter 149: Reunion

~8 min read 1,562 words

Yan Liang's factory started construction in February and was barely finished and operational in May.

Pei Huaiye drove in person, taking his whole family to Beijing; the two little cubs were nine months old.

It was their first time on a long trip; they were excited and shouting in the car, and when they were tired from playing, they fell asleep in Su Qianyue's arms.

Li Zilan and Su Qingwu were also going to Beijing for the first time, and the two looked at the outside world through the car window along the way.

Arriving in Beijing, Yan Liang took them to a large house. Li Zilan and Su Qingwu sighed that Beijing people really knew how to enjoy life.

They were surprised to learn that the house was rented in advance by Pei Huaiye using his connections to have Yan Liang help, and they were scared to stick out their tongues when they learned how much the rent was.

"When the work here is stable, we'll bring Dad, Qingxi, and Zhuangzhuang over."

Li Zilan didn't dare to answer this; what could she and Su Qingwu do?

After the group tidied up, they met the other key personnel who had taken the train in the afternoon, and it immediately became lively.

Team Leader Xiang brought his two eldest sons, and Liu Chunxing and her husband came by train.

After everyone was settled, Su Qianyue organized everyone to visit the new factory. "The equipment here is brand new, and the workers don't know anything. You are key personnel who have worked for two years; don't be afraid when sharing tomorrow, just do it like we usually train new people."

This night was destined to be sleepless. Early the next morning, all the workers were present, and Su Qianyue, Team Leader Xiang, the technical key personnel, and Yan Liang appeared together for the ribbon-cutting.

The applause under the stage was thunderous.

The training process was also very smooth. The workers were very cooperative and asked questions actively. Li Zilan found that the problems were not difficult, as they were things encountered usually, so she became bolder and took the initiative to communicate with some workers.

Yan Liang was very satisfied with this and even praised her.

After a full month of training, the technical key personnel all received certificates of honor and a high bonus of one hundred yuan.

Before leaving, Yan Liang also suggested that if they wanted to stay in Beijing to develop, positions here were always reserved.

Team Leader Xiang's family thought it over and decided to return to the village; the factory there was their base camp. Liu Chunxing thought of the elders at home and also decided to return to the village.

Li Zilan was still hesitating, and Su Qianyue persuaded them to stay in Beijing.

"In the future, Zhuangzhuang will be exposed to a bigger world, his vision will be broader, and the quality of education will be better."

"Huaiye's work has also been transferred here; just go home and pick up Dad and the others."

"I know you are still reluctant to leave your maiden family, but we can go back to the village to visit them every year, and we can help the family when we have money."

Li Zilan and Su Qingwu discussed it for a whole night and finally decided to stay and develop.

The whole family was very happy. Pei Huaiye arranged for people to send the eldest sister-in-law's family back to the village, and the two of them stayed in Beijing to settle down.

At night, after Pei Huaiye coaxed the two children to sleep, he asked Su Qianyue softly.

"Is Deputy Factory Director Su tired?"

"Not tired."

Pei Huaiye's eyes darkened, and he pounced on her to kiss her.

After a while, Su Qianyue was panting. "What if I said I was tired?"

Pei Huaiye raised his eyebrows. "Then I'll give you a massage." His eyes were dim, and his large hands were not honest.

As the two were messing around, Pei Huaiye carried the two little cubs to the bedroom next door.

Su Qianyue was so tired that her bones felt like they were going to break. Before falling asleep, she was muddled and wondered what she hadn't done well.

At dawn the next day, Yuanyuan opened his bright, watery eyes in the bedroom next door. He blinked and didn't see his mom and dad. Just as he was about to pout and cry, he saw his sister still next to him.

Yuanyuan leaned over and poked his sister's cheek with his little hand. She didn't wake up, so he bit his sister's chubby little hand again.

Tuantuan woke up. As soon as she opened her eyes and didn't see Mommy, she was about to cry.

Yuanyuan kissed his sister and held Tuantuan's hand. "Go, find Mommy."

The two little ones climbed down from the very low bed. Fortunately, the floor was covered with very thick carpets.

Tuantuan let out an "aiya," and with her fair, tender little feet, she wobbled after her brother to find Mommy.

The two little ones pushed open the door of the master bedroom. Su Qianyue was still nestled in Pei Huaiye's arms, sleeping soundly.

The bed was too high, and they couldn't climb up.

Yuanyuan raised his little hand and slapped his father's face. "Stinky Daddy!"

Pei Huaiye opened his eyes and saw his son hitting him. He scooped up the two little cubs and put them on the bed.

Feeling their feet were ice-cold, he quickly got up to find socks.

Tuantuan and Yuanyuan nestled in Su Qianyue's arms to play. Both little ones hugged Mommy, turning their little bottoms toward Pei Huaiye.

Pei Huaiye smiled helplessly and kissed the three of them dotingly.

He got up to make breakfast.

After the meal, he went to the base.

"Regimental Commander Pei, please look at this."

Pei Huaiye opened the letter and looked at it, his brows furrowing. "When did this happen?"

"The letter arrived today; the time of death should have been last month. They kept it hidden over there and it was only discovered recently."

Pei Huaiye looked at the letter for a long time and arranged a series of things to be investigated.

Half a month later, Pei Huaiye returned home and told her the news of Su Qianqian's death. "They said she fought with Shen Xunbao, and both died."

Su Qianyue frowned. She didn't want to ask about the details, only caring, "Then their children?"

"The Su family has already taken them back. Your foster mother is sick and is in a Beijing hospital."

Su Qianyue was stunned. It felt like a long time had passed since her and Su Qianqian's affairs. "Visiting the foster mother would inevitably make her recall unpleasant things from the past. Forget it."

Pei Huaiye was silent for a long time and didn't answer.

Su Qianyue saw his expression was wrong. "Is there something else?"

"Qingyue, Shen Chongzhi came to find me."

Su Qianyue was full of questions. "What did Uncle Shen want with you?"

"After Shen Xunbao died, his shadow still appeared in Beijing. When I investigated, I discovered that Shen Xunbao had a twin brother, Qiao Wang."

"The one who married Su Qianqian was Qiao Wang, and the one in Beijing was Shen Xunbao."

Su Qianyue widened her eyes in disbelief.

"Qiao Wang was the child of the Shen family's nanny and driver. Shen Chongzhi trusted them and didn't expect to be deceived by his own people."

"After we met, he showed me a photo."

"He said that his wife was in a coma and the child was lost back then. The nanny happened to have a child, so to comfort his wife, he said that was their son. He didn't expect his wife to pass away in the end, so he just kept raising him like that while looking for his biological son."

Pei Huaiye's eyes turned red as he spoke.

"When my Master investigated Doctor Sun's house, Shen Chongzhi noticed me. Doctor Sun's grandson is Sun Guangyuan, who is the person Shen Xunbao liked."

"The Sun family had a grudge against Shen Chongzhi back then. To take revenge, they sold their son to Chen Lianzhen and her husband who went to see a doctor..."

Su Qianyue didn't have time to be surprised and pounced over to hug Pei Huaiye.

"No matter what your identity is, in my heart, you are the person I love most."

Pei Huaiye buried his head on his lover's shoulder. "I still can't accept him right now."

They both understood who "him" was.

"Time will tell. You still have me, and you have Tuantuan and Yuanyuan."

Just as the words fell, Tuantuan and Yuanyuan walked over wobblily, holding hands.

"Daddy, don't cry."

"Daddy, shy-shy."

Tuantuan and Yuanyuan looked at Pei Huaiye with heartache. Tuantuan even pouted, her eyes shimmering with water.

Yuanyuan also wrinkled his little face, unhappy.

Pei Huaiye rarely showed a trace of bashfulness. He picked up the two babies, one in each hand, and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

Su Qianyue stood on tiptoe and kissed him. "We will get better and better in the future."

Pei Huaiye and the two little cubs scrambled to kiss Su Qianyue. For a time, the room was full of laughter.
