Rebirth: Regaining Joyful Moments-Chapter 1179 - 1181: The Missing Bedsheet

"Li Xiuying, do you know what shame is?" Su Yan looked at her and realized she was doing it on purpose.

"If you like someone, you should boldly say it. Men should marry, and women should wed. What’s shameful about that?" Li Xiuying answered earnestly and said, "Aunt was mentioning today that she wants to find you a wife."

Su Yan: "..."

"Guess how I responded to Aunt?" Li Xiuying leaned in.

"Go to sleep." Su Yan turned and walked away.

Li Xiuying looked at his back in confusion and muttered, "Looks like there’s hope. I should’ve just told Aunt that I’m your girlfriend."

Su Yan almost tripped at her words.

...

Xu Nianhua woke up feeling sore all over; she was woken up by the urge to pee. She groggily got out of bed, but as soon as she tried to stand, her legs gave out.

"Careful." Pei Yicheng supported the drowsy her and said, "I’ll go with you." 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"No need." Xu Nianhua endured the soreness, quickly put on a robe, and went to the bathroom.

Pei Yicheng propped himself up on one arm, chuckling lightly at her appearance.

Xu Nianhua turned her head and glared at him, saying, "It’s all your fault."

"Yes, it’s my fault, all my fault." Pei Yicheng stepped forward to help her.

Xu Nianhua hurriedly stopped him, saying, "You’re not wearing any clothes."

"You’ve already seen it all." Pei Yicheng didn’t mind at all, but seeing Xu Nianhua flee into the bathroom, he put on a pair of shorts.

Before long, Xu Nianhua came out bundled up tightly. Pei Yicheng wanted to hug her, but she kept her distance. Pei Yicheng went into the bathroom, and in just a few minutes, he saw Xu Nianhua had already changed into a skirt and was tidying up the sheets.

"Nianhua." Pei Yicheng quickly rolled up the sheets and said, "I’ll handle this. You must be hungry, right? Go outside and get some fresh air. I’ll make breakfast for you soon. What would you like to eat?"

"Let me do it." Xu Nianhua wanted to handle the sheets herself, but Pei Yicheng didn’t give her a chance. After breakfast, she thought about taking them out to dry, only to later realize she couldn’t find the sheets anywhere.

Pei Yicheng interrupted her several times, making her completely forget about it. Until much later, when she found the sheets in the safe, she thought she might have imagined it.

Pei Family.

Pei Guozhong’s health had been improving over the past few years. Most of the Pei family’s business was now managed by Pei Yicheng, with only a small part handled by him. Since reconciling with Pei Yicheng, although the father-son relationship wasn’t as close as others, it was no longer hostile.

"Nianhua, you shouldn’t do any work. I’ll handle it," Wan Hongxing said with a cheerful smile, taking over all the kitchen tasks.

"Sister-in-law, come, let’s chat for a bit," Pei Yining said, pulling Xu Nianhua aside for a conversation.

Pei Guozhong and Pei Yicheng were in the study.

"Nianhua, how do you feel after getting married?" Pei Yining teased Xu Nianhua, having waited years to finally see Xu Nianhua becoming a sister-in-law.

"Oh, nothing much different than usual." Xu Nianhua’s face turned slightly red, and she changed the topic, saying, "By the way, I heard from your brother that you’re going to Haicheng to photograph the sunrise on the sea?"

"Yeah, how about it? Do you want to come along?" Pei Yining suggested.

Xu Nianhua shook her head repeatedly, saying, "No, I don’t have the time right now. Maybe next time. But you, shouldn’t you consider dating someone?"

"Sister-in-law, please spare me. I’m still young." Pei Yining got a headache as soon as the topic came up; she had no interest in dating, only in taking beautiful photos.
