MTL - After Playing the Fool and Marrying the Blind Villain [Transmigration]-Chapter 59
Just ten minutes ago, Anyang casually inquired about the operation of "Dawn Game".
Facing his mother's occasional questions, Li Yu'an still chose to be honest, and explained the company's situation after consideration—
At present, the operation of all old loss-making projects has been suspended, and a new game studio has been invested and opened, and most of the manpower and material resources have been concentrated on the construction of the studio's original games.
Although the main signboard for the public will be "ywy studio" in the future, as long as the return funds are sufficient, Li Yu'an, as the largest shareholder and executive party, can still resume the project creation of Liming Games in the future.
But when Anyang heard this, his face suddenly changed, and he felt a little bit blamed.
In her opinion, "Dawn Game" is the hard work of her husband and her during his lifetime, and it is one of the few remaining thoughts of the other party.
As a result, Li Yu'an joined forces with unknown outsiders to create a brand new studio without discussing with her? Even future games are branded "ywy"?
This is clearly giving up the dawn game!
Li Yu'an noticed Anyang's mood swings, and immediately wanted to admit his mistake to appease him, but the other party excused that he had to go to the bathroom, got up and left.
Li Yu'an is more aware of Anyang's mental illness in the past four years than anyone else. Although the other party's daily state looks good in the past half a year, he still dare not take it lightly.
Because there are separate bathrooms for men and women, it is inconvenient for Li Yuan to follow up directly, so he had to ask the female waiter to help take care of her.
The bathroom in the corridor is next to the stairs.
Anyang heard the lively noise from upstairs, stopped and casually asked the waiter next to him.
You know, people who can dine in Haodu are either rich or expensive.
Although Anyang's clothes are not expensive and big-name, but because of her aura, the accompanying waiter replied naturally, "Yes, ma'am, the banquet hall upstairs is reserved for birthday celebrations today, it seems to be the person from Pei's company... "
Before he could finish speaking, Anyang rushed forward as soon as his expression changed.
The waiter thought that An Xin knew someone from the Pei family, so he followed up and was not in a hurry to stop him.
Until Anyang rashly rushed into the banquet hall, which aroused doubts and discussions from the members of the Pei family and the guests, and even stared at the host of the birthday party with some abnormality.
The waiter realized that something was wrong, and tried to dissuade him in a low voice but to no avail. Seeing that An Yang caused the host of the banquet to be unhappy, she hurriedly went downstairs to tell Li Yu'an about the matter.
As soon as Li Yuan heard Anyang's "unusual", he immediately rushed forward.
Seeing his friend in a hurry, Pei Yi immediately realized something was wrong.
He was really worried about Li Yu'an who went upstairs alone, frowned and looked at Bao Yueming, "Second brother, let's go up and have a look? I feel something is wrong, anyway, Xiao Li is always your GM's partner."
Bo Yueming had already seen that Pei Yi had something on his mind, so he indulged and at the same time did not forget to explain, "Yes, but you can't mess around after you go up, you have to be careful."
Since it was Pei Huan's birthday, there must be many insiders upstairs who know their identities well. According to the relationship between Bo and Pei, they need to be careful in disguising, so as not to be tipped off.
After less than five seconds of discussion and decision, Yan Cen, who was opposite him, stood up first and summoned the messenger, "All the expenses for these two tables will be charged to my account."
Bo Yueming led Pei Yi to stand up, "Let's go up and have a look."
…
In the banquet hall.
Deng Xiuya wiped the wine stains on her expensive shawl with displeasure on her face, out of anger—
The birthdays of her precious son Pei Huan in the past two years were either outside or with friends. For this year's 25th birthday, she agreed to hold a larger birthday party half a month in advance.
Deng Xiuya hid her selfishness and went to great lengths to invite many wealthy families to come.
Firstly, I want to find a good match for my son among children of the same age in the circle.
Secondly, I also want to be beautiful, to regain face for myself, my husband, and Pei's family.
Unexpectedly, the banquet was only halfway through, and An Yang, who was not invited, suddenly broke in!
Facing Anyang who came unexpectedly and refused to leave, Deng Xiuya originally wanted to behave like a good person and invite her to drink a glass of wine before leaving, but the other party pushed away the wine glass she handed over without saying a word.
No, the hand trembled for a moment, and all the red wine liquid scattered on Deng Xiuya's body, and the newly purchased custom-made cloak was about to be scrapped!
Anyang in front of him seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit. Not only did he not apologize, but he also kept staring at Pei Huan.
This look made Deng Xiuya, who was eager to protect her son, very uncomfortable. She didn't care about the dirty wine stains, and half blocked Pei Huan, "Mrs. Li, what do you mean by staring at my son?" ?”
"Since you're here, I'll treat you as a guest, but if you're pretending to be stupid and disturbing other people's interest, then I won't welcome you!"
Anyang was indifferent, and continued to stare at Pei Huan with his head tilted, neither retreating nor stepping forward.
A guest approached and explained, "Mrs. Pei, you should ask the security to invite her out. I heard that Mrs. Li has been mentally abnormal since Mr. Li passed away."
Someone responded in a low voice, "Yes, yes."
"Look at her eyes, I don't know if she thought she was looking at her own son!"
Pei Huan also felt that Anyang looked at him too strangely, and he felt repulsive in his heart, but because of the eyes of all the guests, he held on to a decent and friendly smile.
Pei Huan stroked Deng Xiuya's shoulder lightly, and smiled lightly, "Mom, it doesn't matter if the cloak is dirty. I'll accompany you to buy it tomorrow. It's my birthday today. Don't be unhappy about this little thing."
Hearing her son's comfort and promise, Deng Xiuya was very satisfied, "Okay."
Anyang saw the interaction between the two, and a vague jealousy welled up on his face.
She walked up quickly and grabbed Pei Huan's arm forcibly, "Xiao Huan, do you remember me? We met four years ago! It was when you were in college!"
Pei Huan remembered something, and a trace of unnaturalness flashed in his eyes.
Before he could answer, Anyang couldn't wait to say, "Yes, yes, my son's birthday is also today, your eyes are very, very similar to someone I know."
"His nose was as high as yours when he was young, and, and..."
"Enough! Madam Li, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Deng Xiuya interrupted Anyang's nonsense, and raised her voice to signal, "Where's the security guard! Where's the manager! Don't take her out yet, contact her family to take her away!"
The manager immediately came up and supported Anyang, "Ma'am, please cooperate to leave."
"I don't! I won't go!"
Anyang struggled desperately, but her brain was terribly dizzy. She was in an uncontrollable hallucination—she firmly believed that there were evil people around her, and they all wanted to make her leave her own son.
Anyang looks thin and weak, but right now she doesn't know where the strength comes from. The manager has no choice but to bite the bullet and forcefully drag her, but in the end, she struggles even more frantically.
Li Yu'an, who was rushing over, saw this scene and said loudly, "What are you doing! Let her go!"
The manager was stunned for a moment, and in the next second, Anyang pushed him away with all his strength, but he bumped into the table of the wine tower in reverse.
The guests who saw this scene retreated instinctively, only Li Yu'an rushed up quickly, "Mom, be careful!"
Dozens of wine towers toppled down, and the sound of shattering wine glasses was so loud that it even overwhelmed the panic of the guests.
…
Pei Yi and others who came a step late rushed to the door, and the farce had already happened.
Broken glass shards all over the floor were mixed with crimson wine, and even the cakes on the side of the wine tower suffered. Li Yuan fell to the ground while protecting Anyang, his beige sweater was soaked in a lot of darkness. Red wine stains.
Pei Yi instinctively felt worried for Li Yu'an, and regretted that she had intervened too little in advance.
Obviously he has already intervened to change the fact that "Dawn Game closed down", but no matter how the butterfly's wings can be flapped, it can't shake the trajectory of fate.
"Second brother, I'll go take a look."
Pei Yi made a quick decision, but she was also thinking about Bo Yueming, "There are too many people over there, so don't go here."
Bo Yueming knew that the more this was the case, the more inconvenient it would be for him to reveal anything, so he could only acquiesce in what his kitten did, "Be careful."
"Um."
In front of everyone, Pei Yi ran close to Li Yu'an, and deliberately exaggerated the worried and nervous expression.
"Are you ok?"
The greetings that fall on the ears are normal.
Li Yu'an was stunned for a moment, and before he realized anything, Anyang's panicked breathing brought his attention back, "Mom, how are you? Did you get hurt?"
"..."
Anyang remained silent.
She seemed to be stunned by the series of cracking cups, and she let Li Yu'an help her up in a daze.
"Are you mother and son intentional?"
Seeing the birthday party she had carefully prepared was destroyed, Deng Xiuya finally burst into anger after holding back for a long time, "The reason is unknown, why did you go to my son's birthday party to make fun of it!"
Some guests took the opportunity to comment, "That's right, she suddenly came to ruin someone's birthday party, is it true that Mrs. Li's spirit is not normal?"
"Does it need to be said? The family members don't like it, how can they allow such a person to come out and make trouble."
"..."
Li Yu'an took a deep breath and protected Anyang behind him.
He silently accepted the disgust and contempt of the people around him, bowed and apologized, "Mrs. Pei, I'm really sorry, I will definitely compensate you for all the losses I caused today."
"Compensation? Can you afford it?"
"Do you know how much thought I spent on Xiaohuan's birthday party? How much effort did I spend?"
How could Deng Xiuya fail to see Anyang's mental abnormality?
She thought of the other party's inexplicable words just now, and couldn't help venting, "How failed is your own son? Why did your mother keep thinking about other people's children?"
Pei Yi frowned, and kicked a broken cup under her feet, "Shut up!"
Are you not afraid that you will regret it in the future when you say this?
The wine glass hit Deng Xiuya's ankle firmly and hard, and she was startled, "Pei Yi, you, you little fool, why are you making trouble with outsiders?"
Yan Cen walked up quickly, his worried gaze rested on Li Yu'an's face for a while, and he helped to speak, "Mrs. Pei, the matter has already happened, instead of being right or wrong here, why not find a way to solve it first?"
"I asked the hotel staff to help rearrange the banquet hall next door."
Yan Cen looked at Deng Xiuya, and deliberately brought up a suitable reason, "After all, today is Young Master Pei's birthday, and there are so many guests present, so don't make everyone unhappy."
"..."
Li Yu'an's drooping hand lightly clenched the corner of his clothes, and consciously took half a step back, moving a little further away from Yan Cen.
Pei Huan sensed Yan Cen's defense of Li Yu'an in the depths of Yan Cen's words, and a rare sourness flashed in the depths of his pupils, "Mom, Mr. Li and the others didn't do it on purpose, let's do it according to the senior's wishes."
In public, as the host of the birthday party, he naturally can't be petty, "Don't make everyone unhappy."
For the sake of her child and face, Deng Xiuya could only nod her head patiently.
Someone in the crowd murmured in a low voice, "Look, there is always a difference between a rich family and a small family. The orphans and widows just can't make it to the stage."
Another guest took advantage of the compliments, "Yes, Young Master Pei has outstanding abilities and a friendly temper. Not everyone can give birth to him. After all, Mrs. Pei is very lucky."
"Oh, there is a big difference in the children that people can give birth to. It would be great if my **** could be half as worry-free as Young Master Pei."
The sound of deliberate support for publicity came out, and instantly poked the pain deep in Anyang's heart, and she lost control of her emotions after finally stabilizing.
"What do you know! Pei Huan is my son! He is my son!" An Yang rushed forward with a brisk step, holding Deng Xiuya's hand with red eyes, "We hugged wrong! We hugged wrong from the beginning! "
"..."
As soon as this earth-shattering sentence came down, everyone in the audience was shocked.
Deng Xiuya dismissed her in distaste, and before she could express her dissatisfaction, Pei Ruzhang, who had rushed over, asked first, "What did you say?"
Anyang smashed the jar, and shouted hoarsely, "Twenty-five years ago, Maria's private maternity hospital, on November 16th, there were only the two of us who gave birth that day! The difference between the two babies was ten minutes!"
Pei Yi, who witnessed all this, sighed helplessly. Some things are destined to be impossible for him, an outsider, to stop.
Li Yu'an couldn't believe it, "Mom, what are you talking about? You are tired, shall we go home?"
An Yang was immersed in her own world, completely ignoring the dissuasion, she forcibly grabbed Li Yu'an's hand, and pushed him down in front of the Pei couple.
"Come on, I will return your son to you, but you will return my son to me!"
"..."
Deng Xiuya was just about to refute, but suddenly remembered a past event in her mind. She took half a step forward and easily pulled up Li Yuan's loose sweater cuffs—
There was a small light-colored birthmark imprinted on the elbow joint!
Deng Xiuya didn't bring it up in one breath, and almost fell down.
Seeing Deng Xiuya's reaction, Pei Huan's heartstrings tightened, "Mom?"
"No, it's impossible."
Deng Xiuya shook her head in disbelief, turned around and took Pei Huan's hand, "Xiao Huan is my son, how is this possible? What is this crazy woman talking about!"
Pei Ruzhang saw his wife's abnormality, and straightened her body.
He was the one with the best face in the past, but he was a little less measured and a little more eager in this kind of thing, "What's the matter with you? What did you find?"
Deng Xiuya kept shaking her head and refused to say more—
Back then, Deng Xiuya had a very difficult, time-consuming and long delivery. When the child was born, she only glanced at it briefly and vaguely remembered a small mark on the child's elbow, but before she could fully see it, she fainted due to postpartum hemorrhage past.
Deng Xiuya remembered that she was puzzled when she saw Pei Huan's white elbow later, but she took it for granted that it was the blood that had not been washed clean when the child was born.
Twenty-five years later, this familiar birthmark appeared on Li Yu'an's body, which caused a shocking rift in her world.
An Yang's eyes were fixed on Pei Huan's body, and tears rolled down his face, "Is it, it's impossible, you can go to the paternity test and find out!"
After learning the truth, she told herself countless times that if she was wrong, she was wrong, and she just pretended that nothing happened. Even if she got the child back, her husband would not be able to see or save her!
But it was only now that she realized—
Looking at his own son without recognizing him? If you can hold back the first time, you can't hold back the second time!
Pei Ruzhang heard Anyang's swear words, knowing that in front of everyone, he still insisted on asking, "Looking at you, you already knew it? When did you find out that something was wrong?"
"..."
Li Yu'an put down his sleeves silently, and suddenly understood everything, "Four years ago, when I was still in my sophomore year, it was October, right?"
Anyang finally shifted his attention for a moment after hearing this series of time information.
She looked at Shang Li Yu'an with disappointment that she had never seen before, and her chaotic brain instantly cleared up, and her heart sank even more.
An Yang tried to hold Li Yu'an's hand, "Xiao An, listen to mom..."
"I don't want to hear it, you go on."
Li Yu'an shook off his mother's hand for the first time, leaving behind these inaudible words.
When he turned around, he met the gazes of Pei Yi and Yan Cen, paused slightly, and then strode away with strong emotions that were about to collapse.
Yan Cen followed without thinking.
Pei Yi glanced at the expressions of Anyang, Deng Xiuya, and Pei Ruzhang in turn, and finally understood why Li Yu'an hated everything related to him so much after his life was revealed—
Because everyone was looking for Pei Huan.
From beginning to end, no one really cared about his feelings.
Pei Yi ignored the doomed farce and walked back to the door beside Bo Yueming, "Second Brother, where did they go?"
"Go in the direction of the safe passage."
Bo Yueming checked the situation in the banquet hall from the corner of his eye, and after confirming that no one was paying attention, he led Pei Yi along and asked, "This is the 'big thing' you intuitively felt today?"
"You already knew the life experiences of Li Yu'an and Pei Huan? How did you know?"
"..."
Faced with Bo Yueming's keen guess, Pei Yi said he was guilty, "I, I have always felt that Pei Huan and Pei Ruzhang didn't look alike, but Li... Li Yu'an's looks combined the strengths of their husband and wife, and they were also very good looking. Looks better."
Bo Yueming raised his eyebrows slightly, knowing that he was perfunctory but not revealing, "Do you want to go and have a look?"
"Um."
…
In the safe passage, it was dark.
Li Yu'an fumbled in his pocket by the light of the faint indicator light, and took out the cigarettes and lighter that he carried with him.
Li Yu'an took out a cigarette and bit it in his mouth, trying to gain some power to paralyze himself from it. He pointed the cigarette **** at the mouth of the lighter, his fingers were limp because of trembling, and he couldn't light the fire no matter what.
"..."
Li Yu'an gritted his teeth and slammed the lighter switch.
— Whoosh!
The flame suddenly jumped up, failed to light the cigarette butt, but burned his finger at an angle, "Hmm!"
The lighter fell to the ground by accident, and the door of the safe passage opened again.
Yan Cen, who accurately captured this scene, quickly approached, and a trace of anxiety flashed under the lens, "Are you all right? Did you burn your fingers?"
Li Yu'an lowered his head to avoid his gaze, "No."
Yan Cen was worried, and tried to grab his right hand, "Let me see."
Like a frightened bird, Li Yu'an lost control and blocked Yan Cen's concern, "I said I'm fine! Don't touch me!"
Silence fell suddenly.
Yan Cen looked at Shang Li Yu'an's faintly red eyes, and just as he was about to apologize, the other party took a step ahead, "I'm sorry, Mr. Yan, I want to be alone for a while."
Always, always humiliating in front of him.
Li Yu Anming knew that his life was a big joke, but he still wanted to hide it as much as possible. He didn't dare to meet Yan Cen's eyes, so he avoided to leave, and just happened to pass by Pei Yi who came over.
Yan Cen followed two steps involuntarily, and when he reached the door of the safe passage, Pei Yi stopped him.
"Boss Yan, you are not suitable for the past."
Yan Cen was startled, "What?"
Pei Yi looked at the direction Li Yu'an was leaving, paused for a second, and made a decision, "Well, I'll follow him, second brother, find a place to sit first, and I'll contact you later."
Bo Yueming vaguely understood what was going on, but he still gave Pei Yi enough private space to "make friends", "Be careful, and contact me anytime if you need anything."
"good."
Pei Yi nodded obediently.
He was afraid of losing Li Yu'an, so he chased after him without wasting any time.
…
half an hour later.
In the small quiet bar not far from "Haodu", the specific dark environment seems to be able to absorb all emotions.
Li Yu'an was talking and drinking alone, until the bottle was empty again. Just as he was about to call the waiter to continue, a brand new bottle of unopened whiskey was placed in front of him.
"If you drink this wine in a hurry, you will get drunk."
"..."
Li Yu'an suppressed the drunkenness in his eyes, and looked up to see the face of the person who came, "A place like a bar should not come to a place like a fool like you."
Pei Yi unscrewed the wine bottle, and slowly refilled another glass for Li Yu'an, "What time is it, do you still care about me?"
He followed the other party to this bar, and waited silently at the door for a long time, confirming that the other party's emotions had settled before walking up.
