Seeing the old man's hurried manner and hearing his words, Ye Qing was very surprised and instinctively asked, "What's broken?"
"The call was from Xi Quan, right?" the old man asked.
Ye Qing nodded: "Is there a problem?"
“He’s fine. Didn’t they say Xu Zhe was hospitalized again? If his condition is bad, and Liang Youjie is also there…” The old man started to say, but then contradicted himself and said angrily, “No, this should have been done by Liang Youjie!”
As he spoke, the old man hurried out of Ye Qing's office, not caring whether Ye Qing had agreed to what he had just discussed!
Ye Qing stared blankly at the old man's retreating figure. The moment the office door closed, Ye Qing jolted awake, recalling what the old man had just said. She grabbed her bag and hurriedly left.
Once outside the office and downstairs, Ye Qing realized she hadn't driven. She was about to call the company's driver team to ask for a ride when she saw the old man bending down to get into the car.
So Ye Qing followed and got into the old man's car.
After getting into the car, Xi Quan's maternal grandfather saw Ye Qing sitting calmly in the passenger seat and asked, "What are you doing?"
"From what I'm hearing, you seem quite anxious about what might happen at the hospital right now. Do you think you can get Xi Quan to listen to you, or Liang Youjie to listen to you?"
Ye Qing glanced at the old man sitting in the back seat and said these words.
The old man glared at Ye Qing's tone, but he didn't refute her and tacitly agreed with her approach. Ye Qing was right; if Xi Quan and Liang Youjie were both there, he really couldn't persuade either of them.
Ye Qing's reasons for telling the old man were indeed what she was thinking, so of course she was worried, but Ye Qing was even more curious about the old man's attitude.
At the same time, he wondered to himself, if Liang Youjie was so resentful of Xi Quan, why did he also go to the hospital when Su Zhe was sick?
It's probably not necessary to laugh at Xi Quan!
Liang Youjie and Xi Quan are related by blood, so they are also related by blood to Su Zhe. Therefore, Liang Youjie went to the hospital for Su Zhe's sake.
If that's the case, the old man probably won't be so nervous!
Ye Qing knew Xi Quan's character well. He truly hated Liang Youjie to the core, but he was likely friendly towards Su Zhe. With Su Zhe hospitalized, even if Xi Quan had a huge grudge against Liang Youjie, he wouldn't do anything at this time, would he?
On the way to the hospital, Ye Qing kept thinking about what exactly happened.
After the car stopped, Ye Qing glanced at the name of the hospital, then at the driver, and then back at the old man sitting in the back seat. Ye Qing didn't ask which hospital Xi Quan was in; he ignored the question after getting in the car.
It was obvious that the old man knew about this place, and he seemed quite familiar with it!
But considering their relationship, Ye Qing wasn't surprised.
Ye Qing entered the inpatient department with the old man and, without asking anyone, followed him directly to Su Zhe's ward.
As I was about to push the door open, I heard a loud argument inside.
"Xi Quan, now that Su Zhe is in the hospital, are you satisfied? I've said it before, I didn't want to go to such extremes. I just wanted what was rightfully mine, and I didn't want more than that. But what happened? You were so greedy, refusing to give it to me no matter what. You..."
This is Liang Youjie's voice.
Before Liang Youjie could finish speaking, he was interrupted, not by Xi Quan, but by Su Zhe. Due to his physical condition, Su Zhe's voice sounded weak, but it was filled with anger: "At first, my brother knew nothing and even trusted you completely. He even told you my sister-in-law's address abroad. But what did you do? Because you were afraid that if my brother had a child, he would have another heir, you even tried to get rid of the child. Are you even human?"
“Xu Zhe, don’t forget that we are the real brothers, half-brothers from the same mother but different fathers. You and Xi Quan aren’t. Don’t side with outsiders. And let me correct you, the car accident was caused by Quan Zhen, it had nothing to do with me, and now Quan Zhen has received the punishment he deserves!” Liang Youjie retorted to Xu Zhe.
The car accident and the child's situation were mentioned by Xi Quan and Liang Youjie during their argument. Although they didn't go into details, Ye Qing knew that such things had happened.
So when Ye Qing heard what Liang Youjie and Xu Zhe said, to be honest, she wasn't too surprised at first. After listening, she raised her hand to push the door, but when her hand touched the door, she belatedly realized something!
She was extremely surprised and slowly turned to look at the old man standing next to her, as if asking, "What did I just hear? Liang Youjie and Xu Zhe are half-siblings?"
What about Xi Quan? Isn't Xi Quan Xu Zhe's half-brother?!
The old man glanced at Ye Qing, said nothing, and angrily kicked open the ward door. His vigorous manner seemed out of place for his age.
Even so, out of politeness and basic respect for the elderly, Ye Qing wondered if she should help the old man. But before Ye Qing could even extend her hand, the old man strode confidently into the ward on his own.
Ye Qing quickly followed him inside.
Because the old man went in first, none of the three of them spoke when they saw him. However, all three of them became visibly nervous when they saw Ye Qing.
However, Xi Quan was more concerned. He quickly walked over, helped Ye Qing up, and made Ye Qing sit on the stool next to him: "Your foot injury hasn't healed yet, and it still hurts when you walk. Why are you running?"
Ye Qing smiled and said, "It's nothing."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the old man said irritably, "Don't worry, your wife didn't walk much; she came by car with me."
Xi Quan glanced at Ye Qing questioningly, and Ye Qing nodded at Xi Quan, indicating that what the old man said was true. Then, she asked Xu Zhe with concern, "How are you now?"
Xu Zhe looked at Ye Qing gratefully, thankful that she had come to see him, but before he could even reply, Xi Quan realized something was amiss and asked, "Why are you with Ye Qing?"
This question was clearly directed at the old man.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qing realized that she had been thinking of telling Xi Quan about the old man's visit to her on the way to pick up the children, but because Su Zhe was hospitalized, she hadn't mentioned it yet.
Ye Qing thought that regardless of whether the timing was right or not, she should take this opportunity to explain to Xi Quan. However, before Ye Qing could speak, the old man spoke first: "I was thinking about how to tell you, but now that the three of you are here, let's talk about what has been going on recently."
