At the same time, Sheng Shijing also talked about this topic with Xie Xihe.
At the red traffic light, Sheng Shijing stopped the car and tilted his head to look at Xie Xihe: "Why did you think of acting opposite Lu Qingqing?"
Xie Xihe said nonchalantly, "It only takes a few minutes. If it can solve a problem, that's great. If not..."
It only takes a few minutes, it won't affect anything.
Sheng Shijing understood.
Although he didn't think his girl needed to care about those insignificant people and could just step on those who dared to provoke her, he wouldn't oppose her actions.
As long as she is happy.
He raised his hand and touched the top of her head: "My aunt called me just now and asked us to go back for dinner. I agreed."
"If you want to eat anything, I'll ask my family to prepare it."
Xie Xihe wasn't picky about food, so he casually said, "Anything is fine."
Sheng Shijing picked out a few of her favorite dishes and went to Xie's house first, intending to pick up the little one first before going to Sheng's house.
But what Xie Xihe didn't expect was that as soon as he reached the 22nd floor, he heard two familiar yet unfamiliar voices.
They are Xie Tingyuan and Xie Mingzhu.
"Dad, please consider this as a plea from me. Can you please go see Mom, just once?" In the living room, Xie Tingyuan knelt in front of Xie Bowen and pleaded, "The hospital has issued a critical illness notice. Mom may not make it tonight."
"I know Mom and I have made many mistakes over the years, and I've made you extremely disappointed in us. But death is like the extinguishing of a light. Now that Mom is about to pass away, please consider it as a token of our long years together as husband and wife and fulfill her final wish so that she can pass away in peace."
Xie Bowen had a sullen face, pursed his lips and said nothing, but the tense veins on his hands gripping the armrest of the sofa reflected his inner uneasiness.
Xie Mingzhu was kneeling beside Xie Tingyuan, facing the direction of Xie Bowen. She noticed it as soon as she raised her eyes slightly, and her eyes flashed slightly.
Tears welled up in Xie Mingzhu's eyes at a visible speed. She looked at Xie Bowen with red eyes, her voice hoarse from crying for a long time: "Grandpa, grandma really knows she was wrong. Since she became paralyzed, she can't speak clearly, but she keeps repeating your name and your aunt's name several times every day."
"Especially my aunt." Xie Mingzhu lowered her eyes, "Grandma said that she didn't do what she said, she felt sorry for my aunt, she..."
"Enough!" A sharp shout interrupted Xie Mingzhu's sobbing. Xie Bowen's eyes darkened as he said, "The damage she caused to Xiaoxi can't be erased with just a simple 'I'm sorry'. I don't want to hear such words, and Xiaoxi doesn't want to hear them either."
Xie Mingzhu opened her mouth: "Grandpa..."
Xie Bowen was filled with irritation. After pondering for a while, he finally made a decision: "You guys go."
Xie Tingyuan never thought that even at this time, he would still be so cruel that he would not even want to see Liang Suqin for the last time. He was angry and sad at the same time, staring at him with wide eyes: "Dad!!"
"I'm not dead yet, why are you yelling?" Xie Bowen was already irritated, and now his mood was even worse. He said angrily, "Before, I went to meet the people from the Liang family without telling Xihe, but in just a short while, Liang Suqin became restless and caused all those troubles."
"Xie Tingyuan, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. In my eyes, all of you combined are not as important as my daughter. Even if Liang Suqin really were to die, I wouldn't upset my daughter because of her."
Xie Tingyuan's face was extremely grim, and he finally couldn't help but say what was suppressed in his heart: "But she is not your daughter at all! Me! And Mingzhu! We are your closest relatives connected by blood!"
Xie Mingzhu suddenly looked up and looked at Xie Tingyuan in shock: "Dad, what did you say? You said Xie Xihe..."
Xie Tingyuan had been holding back for a long time, and once he started talking, he let go of his reservations and said, "Who in this world would abandon their own children and grandchildren to devote themselves entirely to their adopted daughter? Dad, ask yourself, over all these years, have you ever felt even the slightest bit of guilt towards Mom or me?"
"Of course Mom did something wrong, but think about it yourself. If you were the mother, watching your husband treat their adopted daughter with such care and love, would you be unhappy or even suspicious?"
Xie Tingyuan and Xie Xihe were twenty years apart in age. When Xie Xihe came to the Xie family, he was already married and had children. He remembered the situation clearly.
"If I remember correctly, at first Mom treated her like her own daughter and loved her even more than Mingzhu. But later on, she gradually distanced herself from her. Have you ever thought about the reason?"
He stared at Xie Bowen intently and said what he had wanted to say for so many years but had never dared to say: "You caused all this with your own hands."
"You're so good to Xie Xihe, even my mother can't stand it."
"I originally thought that you favored Xie Xihe because she was your daughter in your old age, but I never expected that she wasn't your daughter at all!"
"And my mother already knew the truth."
"Under such circumstances, how could you ask her not to think too much and be suspicious?"
"Dad." Xie Tingyuan looked at him closely and asked again, "Don't you feel any guilt towards my mom?"
"No." Xie Bowen answered him with two crisp words.
Under Xie Tingyuan's suddenly changed gaze, he raised his head and looked back straight: "Never."
Xie Bowen didn't want to reiterate the reasons. He waved his hand and said, "Xie Tingyuan, the grudge between your mother and I was settled on the day we divorced. I won't hold her accountable, and you shouldn't bother me on her behalf."
"It's no use looking for it. I made it very clear back when I was at the Fu family. What you and your daughter do has nothing to do with me. It's not your turn to meddle in my affairs."
"Okay, go ahead. My daughter will be back soon. She won't want to see you. And don't get in our way."
"As for your mother," Xie Bowen's eyes changed slightly, and he finally hardened his heart, "I will ask Xie's Medical to send someone to take a look. Whether she can be saved depends on her fate."
Xie Tingyuan's face looked extremely ugly.
He wanted to say something but was stopped by Xie Mingzhu. Xie Mingzhu shook her head slightly at him and helped him stand up.
Xie Mingzhu suppressed the shock in her heart and looked towards Xie Bowen, saying, "Grandpa, I know I have done a lot of wrong things recently and have disappointed you, but whether you recognize me or not, in my heart, you will always be my grandpa."
"Take good care of yourself. Dad and I are leaving first."
After Xie Mingzhu finished speaking, she really stopped pestering him and turned around, pulling Xie Tingyuan.
But the next moment he thought of something, turned his head to look at Xie Yi, whose face was pale, and said, "Grandpa doesn't want to go, so what about you? Do you want to go?"
