Chapter 423: That’s already a very euphemistic statement
"Grandma, that miracle doctor is so rare that he's hard to find."
"I can't contact many people. I'll try again later. I'm not sure."
Xie Nancheng was obviously lying. If Tu Ran hadn't seen the private message Xu Xin sent her, she would have believed him.
In fact, Xie Nancheng had already begun secretly trying to contact a miracle doctor on the Internet to save Yang Xin.
But this matter was not told to the old lady.
No one knows what Xie Nancheng's purpose is in saving Yang Xin.
But the old lady couldn't lie. She must have felt sorry for the child because he didn't have a mother.
"I really don't have much hope, so just do your best," said the old lady.
"Well, I'll keep an eye on this."
"Okay, Aunt Ping, take the baby. We should go back."
"Grandma, I'll take you downstairs."
Tu Ran helped the old lady down the stairs carefully.
The couple accompanied the old lady to the car.
Before leaving, Tu Ran said, "Grandma, please don't let my affairs affect the relationship between Dad and Mom. I hope you can persuade Dad not to stay away from home all the time, not to be angry with Mom, and not to treat it coldly. If there is any problem, we can communicate properly."
The old lady was slightly startled, but finally nodded and said nothing.
On the way back in the car, the old lady took a long time to speak.
"A Ping, what do you mean by Ran Ran?"
"Which one, madam?"
"She has never been someone who doesn't know her limits, and she wouldn't interfere in her parents-in-law's affairs. She hasn't been back to the old house for a long time, so how could she know that Huaiyu and his wife have a tense relationship? And from what she said, she even knew that Huaiyu often didn't come home."
"This... probably was said by Young Master Nancheng. Young Master Nancheng and Mr. have always been in contact, and their father-son relationship is quite good."
"But Ranran doesn't seem like someone who can interfere in this matter. She specifically told me all this today... There must be a reason."
"That's it, Ping."
"Find someone to check who Huaiyu has been hanging out with lately."
"Ah? Are you suspicious of the master..."
"Ranran isn't the type to remind me for no reason, so I'd better be careful."
The old lady also understood her granddaughter-in-law's character. She was a peaceful person and rarely meddled in other people's affairs.
Today I can finally talk about the matter of my parents-in-law.
The old lady realized something was wrong from both his words and his subtle expressions.
In fact, Tu Ran had reminded Xie Nancheng before.
But Xie Nancheng trusted his father's character too much.
After my father took over the management of Shengshi Group, he never became arrogant even though he was in a high position.
There is no gossip about him at all, he is a model of a good husband.
Now that I’m old, what trouble can I cause?
Xie Nancheng had indeed underestimated Bai Yueguang's lethality...
It would have been better if the old lady hadn't investigated. Once she did, her face suddenly darkened.
Holding the thick documents, the more the old lady read, the uglier her expression became.
"Madam, you are truly foresighted."
"Thanks for hearing the hidden meaning of the young lady's words."
"This gentleman has been going out quite a lot lately... but we didn't suspect anything. We never thought this was..."
The photos all show Xie Huaiyu and the same woman, drinking tea, fishing, eating, and even riding horses and playing golf.
It didn't look like there was anything overly intimate going on, but... eyes couldn't lie.
How could the old lady of the Xie family not understand the child she gave birth to?
It had been many years since she had seen her son look at a woman like this.
Especially when she saw the woman's information, the name moved her.
——Qiao Kelan?
The name was so familiar that it reminded the old lady of decades ago when her eldest son was still a teenager.
A romantic past at school...
"Call Huaiyu right away and ask him to come back to see me."
"Okay." Pinggu turned and left.
The old lady then locked all the information in her cabinet and hid it so that her daughter-in-law would not see it.
In the afternoon, Xie Huaiyu returned after repeated urging from the old house over the phone.
At this time, Mrs. Xie had not returned yet.
After Zhou Han got into trouble recently, the Zhou family almost clung to her, fearing that all their efforts would be wasted.
He tried all kinds of tricks to make Mrs. Xie happy.
Upstairs in the old house, the old lady’s bedroom.
"Mom, what's the hurry? Why are you calling me back?" Xie Huaiyu walked in wearing a light jacket.
"What have you been busy with lately?"
Xie Huaiyu was stunned. "It's still the same. After I retired, I like fishing, playing ball, and getting together with some old friends."
"Don't you know all this?"
"Oh? Really? Is that all?" The old lady had something else in her words.
"Mom, what do you mean? What else can I do?"
"Are you and your wife still in a cold war recently?"
"I don't want to talk about her."
Xie Huaiyu has separated from his wife, and their communication has gradually become less and less.
Unless we stop talking, we will quarrel.
It's nothing more than the attitude towards daughter-in-law.
Xie Huaiyu didn't like the Zhou family very much, nor did he like the girl named Zhou Han.
He has been in the business world for so many years and has seen all kinds of people.
Zhou Han's enthusiasm was too much, even making people feel hypocritical.
On the contrary, the cold and aloof daughter-in-law is more real.
"Huaiyu, you are not a child anymore."
“You should know what to do and what not to do without being reminded.”
"Mom, just tell me directly."
"Don't beat around the bush. Did Nancheng's mother tell you anything?"
"Who have you been with recently?" the old lady asked.
"Didn't I just say that with those old friends?"
"Besides that?"
"No more." Xie Huaiyu was obviously a little uncomfortable.
"You're lying." The old lady was a little angry and stomped her cane.
"You're with that woman named Qiao."
Xie Huaiyu was a little shocked, "You followed me?"
"Do I need to follow you? Xiangcheng is so small, there is no impenetrable wall."
"Mom, even if I contact her, is there any problem? She and I are just friends now. She's divorced and her life is tough. It's not easy for her to raise a daughter."
"So, you want to be a hero and save the beauty? Save Bai Yueguang from danger?"
"Why are you saying such harsh things? It's been so many years, why do you still not like her? She didn't provoke you, did she?"
The old lady didn't like that woman back then, so when she found out that he was dating her, she immediately strongly opposed it and made the decision to send Xie Huaiyu abroad.
It can be considered as a forced separation of a couple. I didn’t expect that after many years, the past would reappear.
"You know I don't like it."
"If you know that, why do you still associate with her?" the old lady asked.
"We connected by chance... We're all in our fifties and sixties now, not children anymore. It's not what you think. I just feel like I've let her down..."
"Stop talking."
"Son, you are the eldest in our family."
"He has always been a role model for the family."
"I've always valued my reputation, and I don't want you to lose it in your later years."
"Also, you also know what your wife has done for the Xie family."
"Even if she is a little confused now, we can't let her down."
"I absolutely will not agree to that, you know that?"
"Where did you go? That's too far. There's nothing between Kelan and me."
"Starting tomorrow, you are not allowed to go out." The old lady gave the order.
