Lin Yan, who was on the other end of the line, felt suspicious. “He’s drained? How is that possible? I’ve been staying there as per Mr. Pei’s instructions. I’ve been keeping an eye on your Big Brother’s meals and living habits.
“Although he was busy occasionally and might have worked late, he would usually sleep on time.
“Besides, I knew that he would have a check-up soon, so I asked him about it yesterday night. Your brother told me that everything was fine and nothing was wrong. Besides, he seems to be in good condition…”
The corners of Pei Yutang’s mouth twitched as he replied dully, “Daddy, be careful! Given my Big Brother’s intelligence, it’s easy for him to lie to you. Everything is not normal. He has a sickly body, and I have been talking to Second Brother and the others for more than three hours. The doctor said that his physical strength has reached its maximum and he is merely enduring out of sheer willpower. He could collapse at any moment. Besides, his high fever hasn’t subsided for days…”
“How could that be…” Lin Yan frowned when she heard Pei Yutang. “Where is your brother now?”
Pei Yutang replied, “He just got out of the hospital. He asked Cheng Mo to bring all his work-related documents home.”
Lin Yan nodded. “Got it. I’ll come back now.”
Pei Yutang heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Lin Yan. He then thought of how timid Lin Yan was and his heart started racing. “Alright then. I hope that my brother will listen to you.”
Half an hour later, Lin Yan got out of her car in a rush.
“Where is Mr. Pei?” Lin Yan’s eyes darted to the people in the living room. Pei Nanxu, Pei Yutang, and everyone else were present. They all looked worried and anxious.
In a corner of the living room were a doctor and an assistant in white coats. Pei Yucheng had seen Pei Yutang’s doctor before, when he had lost control.
The two of them were reading a report while looking troubled.
“In the study,” said Pei Nanxu.
“Is it really that serious?” Lin Yan frowned.
Pei Yutang nodded vigorously. “If we weren’t present, Professor Tan would have suggested that we abduct him and take him to the hospital.”
Lin Yan imagined Pei Yutang fighting and shuddered in fear.
“I’ll go take a look…” Lin Yan was still puzzled. “Professor Tan isn’t reliable at all. I’ve been observing your brother for some time, and he seems to be in a good mood… He doesn’t look like you at all…”
Pei Yutang was exasperated. “My brother is in a good mood in front of you. He just needs to see you. How can a person in love be in a bad mood?”
Lin Yan replied, “Errr…”
How could this happen?
Pei Yutang added, “However, this doesn’t change the fact that he has drained and damaged himself. Before you came along, Big Sister-In-Law, Big Brother had lost control of himself too many times. Every time he lost control, it would damage his body greatly. His body has been severely damaged.”
Pei Nanxu added, “I would like to trouble you, Miss Lin. Let’s see if you can persuade Big Brother to stay in the hospital for some time.”
Lin Yan scratched her head. “I’ll try my best… You should know that I might not be able to persuade him.”
He was the head of a multinational corporation and the Pei Family. How could she make him listen to her? Besides, Pei Yucheng’s aura made her cower in fear the moment she faced him.
