Qian Yuxiang said without thinking, "No, I don't agree."

Commander Qi glanced at Qian Yuxiang indifferently and said, "I don't need your attention." He almost pointed at her nose and asked, "Who do you think you are? Do I need your attention?"

Qi Aiguo was the first among them to calm down. He looked at his old father and asked, "Dad, have you made up your mind?"

Commander Qi did not answer, but looked at his son and asked, "How long has it been since you last saw Weimin?"

Qi Aiguo was stunned. He didn't expect his father to ask this. Seeing his father staring at him, he thought about it seriously and found that he couldn't remember it.

How long has it been since you last saw Wei Min?

When was the last time you saw Wei Min?

It seemed that he had met the old man once in the hospital two years ago when the old man was sick and hospitalized. The boy didn't even say hello when he saw him. He just stayed in the ward for a while and then left. He never saw him again after that.

Seeing Qi Aiguo remained silent, Commander Qi finally spoke, "Weimin has already graduated from the military academy and has made meritorious service since returning to the team. The department plans to promote him. Before long, his rank will be promoted from battalion commander to deputy regimental commander."

Qi Aiguo looked at General Qi in surprise, "Isn't he the company commander?"

Commander Qi looked at Qi Aiguo indifferently, "He stopped being a company commander three years ago. Qi Aiguo, have you ever cared about Weimin since you remarried? Think about it yourself. Are you a competent father to Weimin? Are you worthy of Weimin calling you Dad?"

Qi Aiguo opened his mouth but could not utter a word, because that was the fact and he had no way to argue.

Ever since he married Qian Yuxiang, all his attention has been devoted to her. Later, when he had a daughter, Nannan, he no longer cared about Weimin. He even heard about Weimin moving out of the compound from his relatives, and never asked about his life in the dormitory. He didn't even think about asking his son to come back for a reunion dinner during the New Year. It's not that he completely forgot about his son, but he felt that Qian Yuxiang and Nannan would be happier when his son was not around, so he simply didn't mention it, and it gradually became a habit.

Old Lady Qi glared at Commander Qi in dissatisfaction. "Why are you talking about this now? It's not Aiguo who's preventing him from coming back. It's Aiguo himself who doesn't want to come back. What does Aiguo have to do with it?"

When talking about her eldest grandson, Old Mrs. Qi felt uncomfortable. She used to love her eldest grandson sincerely, but since her ex-daughter-in-law died of illness, her eldest grandson seemed like a different person and was very indifferent to her as his grandmother. As time went by, she could no longer like her eldest grandson and hoped that her son would give her another grandson.

Commander Qi looked at his old wife with a cold gaze, "If Weimin doesn't go home, do you think it has nothing to do with you?"

Old Lady Qi frowned. "What does it have to do with me? He has a weird personality and doesn't like to go home. It's not me who drives him away."

Commander Qi snorted coldly, "You mean he's suddenly not close to you, his grandmother? Have you ever thought about why?"

Old Mrs. Qi rolled her eyes: "I don't care why."

Commander Qi said, "After Meiping fell ill, you spent all day at home complaining about her being a burden to your son and wishing she would die sooner. You were so careless that you said whatever you wanted. Did you think Meiping couldn't hear you? Did Weimin hear you? What did I tell you back then? Did you hear a single word?"

Old Lady Qi widened her triangular eyes in disbelief, "So Weimin holds a grudge against me because of this?"

"That's his mother, the one who gave birth to him and raised him. She's already suffering because of her serious illness, and now she has to listen to you cursing her all day long. How can he be happy?"

Old Mrs. Qi recalled the past, and a look of sudden enlightenment appeared on her face. "No wonder he took his mother to the hospital and never came back. It turned out that he started to hate me, an old woman, from that time."

"Shouldn't I hate you?" Commander Qi felt his chest ache again. "I only hate myself for not having the heart to send you back home."
