The mistress is not a cannon fodder, the cold prince falls in love with her every night

Su Li also looked at Pei Le eagerly.

Pei Le hugged Huan Ge'er's neck and said with a pout:

"Big brother said he was very happy to see Lele being so capable, and he also told Lele to grow up happily and be filial to his parents and protect his sister in the future."

Pei Le babble on and on, then turned to look at Huan Ge'er.

"Brother, I will protect my parents and sister. But don't even think about being lazy!"

Huan Ge'er smiled.

"Okay, big brother won't be lazy. Big brother and Lele will protect mom and dad and Xijie together."

Lele was born in Quanzhou, and Huan Ge'er only had a fleeting glance at him. Now that he has woken up again, Pei Le has grown up.

Xijie'er also became a graceful young girl.

Fortunately, Dad and Mom seem to have not changed at all. Dad is still handsome and has the charm of a mature man. As for Mom, she is becoming more and more beautiful.

Seeing Huan Ge'er looking at her, Su Li reached out and pulled Pei Le off him, saying:

"Okay, your eldest brother is back, you should rest assured. He's sick and needs to rest well, don't disturb him here. Go do what you need to do!"

Pei Le wanted to stick with his elder brother, but Pei Heng spanked him and he had to leave reluctantly. Before leaving, he made a pinky promise with Huan Ge'er:

"Brother, you have to teach me how to use a slingshot! Brother Xie said you're really good with a slingshot. It's a pity you never showed me how to use it once."

Huan Ge'er scratched Pei Le's nose.

"Okay, I'll teach you when Big Brother gets better."

Only then did Pei Le happily follow Xi Jie'er.

Su Li reached out and touched Huan Ge'er's forehead, then compared it with her own forehead, and breathed a sigh of relief:

"The fever has gone down, thank God. It's freezing outside, though. You'd better be careful these days and stay indoors, out of the draft."

"Also, Mom asked someone to make you some porridge. You can drink some later. They say illness comes like a mountain falling and goes away like a thread being pulled out. You'll have to recover slowly over time."

Listening to Su Li's chatter, Huan Ge'er felt warm in his heart.

It’s like a child who has been traveling far away has finally returned home.

A wandering heart finally has a place to rely on.

"I'm sorry to have made my parents worried during this period," said Huan Ge'er.

His body was occupied by Li Ji, and his soul seemed to be imprisoned in a cage.

He could hear, see, and even feel everything in the outside world, but he just couldn't go out.

Watching yourself being replaced by another version of yourself is a strange and terrifying feeling.

He was terrified.

I am afraid that I will disappear from everyone's sight from now on, as if I had never appeared.

He spent a long time like this.

Until Li Ji returned to Shengjing.

The moment he saw his parents, he tried his best to shout, but his parents were only immersed in the joy of reunion.

He was once in despair.

But he still saw his mother's suspicious look.

Mother realized something was wrong almost immediately, but she didn't know what to do.

However, it was because of his mother's look that his heart calmed down.

Because he knew that if he disappeared from this world, at least one person would know about it. That person was his mother!

……

Su Li felt very sad when he heard Huan Ge'er talking about this matter.

"Brother Huan, I thought I would never see you again."

"Mom, I'm always here."

Huan Ge'er shared his feelings, and Su Li and Pei Heng were amazed.

Fortunately, they have experienced a lot and can accept even the most bizarre things.

"Then..." Pei Heng hesitated, "Is he still there?"

Brother Huan felt it.

"Probably gone."

Pei Heng looked a little disappointed.

Both of them were his sons, so he couldn't differentiate between close and distant relatives. Li Ji had suffered so much, and now he was gone alone, which he always felt was unbearable.

"Dad is sorry for him."

"Dad owes him an apology."

Su Li also felt uncomfortable in her heart. She couldn't tell whether she should be happy or sad.

Huan Ge'er said:

"Dad, when he left, he said that his wish had been fulfilled. In addition to revenge, Dad and Mom gave him a home, allowing him to feel the warmth of home that he had never had before!"

"He is very happy and he lives happily in this world."

"He is also very happy that all of you are living happily in this world."

"He has no regrets."

Pei Heng nodded.

"It's my fault for making him so paranoid after what he went through. He deserved better."

Huan Ge'er took Pei Heng's hand and comforted him:

"Dad, he is me, and I am him. Don't worry, Mom taught me to live with my heart, to feel the love and warmth of this world with my heart. I will bring his share back to life."

"Good boy!"

The mother and son, and the father and son held hands tightly together.

……

After leaving Qingshan Garden, Pei Shizong was standing outside the door with his hands behind his back.

When Su Li saw this, she walked away tactfully.

Before leaving, she patted Pei Heng's hand.

"speak nicely."

"I understand." Pei Heng nodded.

After several years of wasting time, Pei Shizong's hair had turned gray and his waist was bent.

He was dressed in coarse cloth and had a pipe on his waist. He had long lost the air of a marquis and looked like a farmer.

Standing next to the handsome Pei Heng, no one could associate the two of them together.

Pei Heng hesitated for a while, and finally stepped forward and whispered:

"Father!"

Pei Shizong's shoulders trembled, and he could hardly suppress his inner excitement. It took him a long time to slowly turn around.

His eyes were moist and he nodded silently.

"Brother Heng, it was Dad's fault in the past. Dad apologizes to you."

Pei Heng waved his hand.

"It's in the past."

Yes, it's all over.

What else could be done?

If only hatred and resentment remained in his heart, he would die with resentment like Pei Heng in another world, and then create tragedies such as Li Ji, Xi Jie'er, and Xie An.

Fortunately, he met Su Li in this world.

Love and kindness will eventually conquer all.

Pei Shizong felt his face burning with shame. He should have said sorry a long time ago, but he had put it off until now.

But things have already happened, what's the point of saying sorry?

"Brother Heng, Su Li was so magnanimous to take me to his house. But I still can't let you down."

"Brother Heng, I've thought about it. If you allow me, after this New Year, I will go to Lin'an to accompany your grandmother. When your grandmother passes away one day, I will come back to atone for my sins."

Pei Shizong had already let it go.

Now he has no worries and his only concern is his elderly mother.

However, although he said this, he still hoped that his son would keep him for the sake of their father's relationship.

He lowered his head, but his eyes were fixed on Pei Heng.

But Pei Heng showed no mercy and said coldly:

"That's fine. As an old man, it's really inconvenient for you to live in the mansion. I will buy you a house next to your third uncle so that you can take care of your grandmother. When your grandmother passes away, you don't have to come back. You can live out your days in Lin'an."
