“Of course not. My husband is handsome and rich. I’ve cultivated my fortune for eight lifetimes. If I marry you, I’ll definitely live well… and grow old together with you.”

Was this woman a drama queen? One moment she was pitiful, and now she was saying that she wanted to grow old together.

Zhao Jia was extremely beautiful and had a good figure. At this moment, standing together with Peng Zezai, the two of them looked like a perfect couple.

Wanqing’s heart ached, and a pained expression appeared on her pale face. “Oh…”

Old Madam Peng could not be bothered to be angry. She looked at Wanqing with concern. As she gently stroked Wanqing’s hair, she shouted anxiously, “Zezai…”

Wanqing was in pain, but Peng Zezai was not. He was not a painkiller either. Zhao Jia looked down at his pair of beautiful fingers. His fingers were so beautiful that she wanted to treasure them.

Peng Zezai was expressionless. “The experts from abroad have arrived. Grandma, you don’t have to worry.”

The experts from abroad? No! She lost the chance to be discovered. Her legs had already been injured and she would never dance again.

Wanqing closed her eyes and cried, “Grandma, I’m afraid…”

“Don’t be afraid. Before you recover, just don’t let her in,” Old Madam Peng said, comforting her.

“Grandma, don’t say that. I believe Jia Jia didn’t do it on purpose. She was just fooling around with me and she accidentally…”

“You fell off the building by accident. It has nothing to do with her,” Peng Zezai’s said coldly.

“That’s right. It has nothing to do with me. Hubby, I’m hungry. Let’s go.” Zhao Jia giggled.

Peng Zezai did not reply. He just turned around and towed her out with him.

The two by the bed watched as they walked out together. They closed the ward door behind them, and only the sound of their footsteps could be heard in the quiet corridor.

“I… Can I ask you a question?”

“Go on.”

Zhao Jia looked at him and asked seriously, “Have we received the marriage certificate?”

“Yes.”

“Has the wedding been held?”

“No.”

No… as expected, he did not like her. He did not even want to hold the wedding because he did not love her.

Peng Zezai looked at her. Was she going to force him to hold the wedding?

The phone rang. Zhao Jia picked it up. “Tang Tang, I didn’t find Lin Qingyan. How are the preparations going over there? Can anyone help?”

“You don’t have to worry about the company. Go back and rest. Your health is important. I’ll accompany you to the hospital for a follow-up tomorrow.” Fang Tang said.
