Chapter 74 73. The truth of that year

When Lu Yeming heard this, it was as if he had been struck by lightning. He did not expect that Lu Xinyi did not lie to him, and his grandfather Lu Diannan was actually admitted to the hospital.

Lu Yeming originally wanted to meet Zheng Shi now to ask about the situation in the company, but after hearing this, he no longer had the heart to ask, and asked anxiously: "Then where is my grandfather now? Do you know which hospital he is in?"

"I'm not sure about that." Zheng Shi said hesitantly, "Your father announced in the company that President Lu was in poor health and went to the hospital. And since you are going abroad for further studies, your father is now in charge of all matters in the company."

"Listen to his bullshit!" Lu Yeming couldn't help but curse out loud.

It was rare that he couldn't help but swear in front of his subordinates, but this time Lu Yeming really couldn't help it.

Lu Feihong is really too shameless to come up with such an excuse.

Grandpa was in good health before he left. How come he had problems not long after he left? And as soon as the problems occurred, he took over the company's internal affairs so quickly. Lu Feihong was a little too anxious.

Zheng Shi's tone was very confused, and it seemed that he couldn't ask anything more.

After Lu Yeming hung up the phone, he took a taxi and went directly to the Lu family's old house.

He did not choose to drive his own car because he was afraid that people would find out that he had returned, so he took a taxi and rushed there.

To Lu Yeming's surprise, the lights in the old house were still on.

You have to know that it is the middle of the night now, who would not be asleep in there? It is impossible for his grandfather to be asleep, and he has probably been controlled by Lu Feihong.

Lu Yeming quietly opened the door and entered the old house, but unexpectedly he saw an unexpected figure.

It’s the old butler.

"Uncle Zhang, why are you here?" Lu Yeming felt relieved when he saw it was him, and asked in surprise.

Butler Zhang turned around in surprise. He didn't expect that there was someone else in the house at such a late hour.

When I turned around, I found that it was Lu Yeming.

"Master Lu, you are finally back." The old housekeeper was a little excited, "I am here to pack up your things for you."

"Pack your things?!" Lu Yeming said in surprise, "Do you know where my grandpa is now? How is he?"

"Grandpa is in the hospital right now..." The old housekeeper was a little emotional when he said this. He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "I didn't expect it to be so sudden. Xiao Ming, since you are back, come with me to see your grandpa."

"What..."

Hearing this, Lu Yeming couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

It seems that his grandfather is really in the hospital, and the situation is not optimistic, otherwise Uncle Zhang would not look so sad.

Lu Yeming originally wanted to drive out immediately with the old butler, but suddenly he thought of something and felt something was wrong.

After thinking it over again and again, Lu Yeming said, "No, Uncle Zhang, it's too late today. You should go back and rest first. I can go by myself tomorrow. Just tell me where it is."

"But I am really worried." After hearing this, the old butler was a little hesitant and was unwilling to go back to rest.

Lu Yeming had no choice but to continue to persuade him, "Don't worry, Uncle Zhang. I'm back now. Everything will be fine. Don't worry. I'll go see my grandfather first."

"What a good child! It's great that your grandfather has a grandson like you." Uncle Zhang was somewhat relieved. "Then Xiaoming, you should go upstairs and have a rest. We can go there together tomorrow morning."

Lu Yeming nodded and said, "Okay."

Although he had agreed in his heart, Lu Yeming still had no intention of going with the housekeeper, because he did not want to involve innocent people and let the people he cared about get hurt.

Lu Yeming had just obtained the address of his grandfather's hospital from the old housekeeper.

Without any hesitation, Lu Yeming took a taxi and left the old house without taking a rest.

By the way, I left a note for the old butler, asking him not to go out for the next few days and that he would be in charge of everything and that if he had any questions, he could just call him.

The car drove for a long time and finally arrived at the suburbs.

Lu Yeming looked up and found that it was actually a private hospital.

The biggest difference from ordinary hospitals is that even the gate is tightly closed, and there are security guards at the door who will carefully check the identity of everyone who comes.

Lu Yeming couldn't help but frown when he saw this. It seemed that Lu Feihong was very afraid that someone would come to visit his grandfather.

There was no other choice, Lu Yeming had to go around to the back of the hospital and climb over the wall to enter the hospital.

With the address given by the old housekeeper, Lu Yeming went smoothly. After entering the floor, he took the elevator directly to the top floor, and then in a single room, he finally saw his grandfather Lu Diannan.

The moment he saw it, Lu Yeming's emotions suddenly became a little excited.

He never imagined that after just not seeing his grandpa for over a week, he would become like this.

Lu Dinan was lying on the bed with a weak breath. The room was very quiet, but he was all alone and looked very lonely.

There is even an ECG monitor next to it.

What surprised Lu Yeming was that Lu Diannan was not asleep at such a late hour. He just stared out the window with his eyes closed and remained silent.

Suddenly, he seemed to sense someone outside the door. He looked towards the door and saw the emotional Lu Yeming.

"Xiao Ming, you're finally here." Lu Dianan's tone was a little tired, but more of a happy one. He waved weakly at Lu Yeming and said, "Come here quickly, let grandpa take a good look at you."

Lu Yeming couldn't hold back any longer, tears rolled down his cheeks, he excitedly walked to the bed, leaned on Lu Diandan's body, and said: "I'm sorry, Grandpa, it's all my fault that I came back late..."

"Not late, not late." Lu Diannan rubbed Lu Yeming's hair with his hands and said comfortingly: "Grandpa is actually fine. He was just angry at your father and fainted and went to the hospital."

"Really, Grandpa? But you are looking at this now..." Lu Yeming felt a little skeptical as he listened to Lu Dinan's vague explanation.

"You look very weak, don't you?" Lu Diannan sighed and said, "Maybe I regret what I did back then. I haven't slept well these past few days, so I look a little pale."

"What happened back then?" Lu Yeming asked doubtfully.

“Yes.”

Lu Dinan's tone suddenly became a little heavy, as if he was recalling something that happened a long time ago. He remained silent for a long time and looked out the window.

It was not until a long time had passed that he said in a calm voice, "You should have met your father's new wife, Liu Hanle, right?"

Lu Yeming nodded, "Yes, I have seen her before. She is a woman who is very good at speaking and has a silver tongue."

"Not only that." Lu Dinan showed a bitter smile on his face, "Xiao Ming, I am really sorry for you. I want to confess something to you, something that has been kept secret for a long time..."

A look of doubt suddenly appeared on Lu Yeming's face. He didn't understand what could have made his grandfather look so painful.

Lu Diannan seemed to be trapped in early memories.

He said slowly, "Actually, I saw that woman when you were just three years old. She was pregnant at the time, and your father was deceived by her and threatened to divorce your mother, but I did not agree at the time, so what happened later happened..."

Hearing this, Lu Yeming was shocked.

He always thought that his grandfather was just like him, and only recently found out about the existence of a woman like Liu Hanle.

He didn't expect that his grandfather had already met that woman when he was still a child.

It seems that his father Lu Feihong had the idea of ​​taking the woman home at that time, but Lu Dinan did not agree, so he gave up.

"Later, I thought the incident had gradually passed, until your mother suddenly passed away when you were eight years old - that was something I could not get over for a long time!"

Lu Diannan's expression suddenly turned painful. He covered his face and said, "I always thought your mother's death was an accident. It was not until I investigated it in detail that I found out that it was actually Liu Hanle who did it!"

"She pretended to be a servant of the Lu family and lurked in the Lu family for a whole year, putting drugs in your mother's food for a long time. But for the sake of the Lu Group, I never told the truth, because the group was already unstable at the time. If it was revealed that your father had a mistress and secretly poisoned his wife, then the market value of the Lu Group would definitely plummet."

"I didn't dare to take that risk, so I kept it a secret." Tears suddenly rolled down Lu Dinan's face. "After your mother died, your father wanted to take that woman home. I used this matter to persuade your father. I absolutely could not let that vicious woman marry into the Lu family!"

"This matter has been suppressed for more than ten years. I thought it was over... I never thought that your father would eventually take that vicious woman back home!"

Lu Dinan's breathing suddenly became rapid, and in the originally quiet room, the ECG monitor suddenly began beeping.

Lu Yeming took a panicked look and found that the originally stable electrocardiogram display suddenly became chaotic, soaring from 110 to 220!

"Grandpa! Stop talking--!"

But Lu Diannian's face was full of tears, and he held his chest in pain and persisted.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Ming, it's all my fault! I shouldn't have suppressed the matter just for my own selfish desires—"

"Not only did you suffer for more than ten years, but I also lived in guilt for more than ten years!"

After hearing what Lu Diandan said, Lu Yeming had already burst into tears. His expression became extremely flustered, and he held Lu Diandan with tears on his face.

"Grandpa, what's wrong with you!? Grandpa! Are you okay? Stop talking, doctor! Come quickly, doctor...!"

But Lu Diandan did not stop talking. He pulled Lu Yeming's sleeve with a painful expression.

"Xiao Ming, I'm sorry for you, and even more sorry for your mother. I feel guilty..."
