Chapter 101 Ending
The shadow of the last incident had not yet subsided, and Zhou Jingzhan encountered one blow after another. He almost had a sleep disorder, unable to fall asleep at night and unable to wake up during the day.
That night, he drank to help himself sleep, just like he had done in the previous two months.
Zhang Abao quietly sat down beside him and called him "Young Master".
Zhou Jingzhan nodded lightly, took a glass and poured wine for Zhang Abao.
Zhang Abao seemed to be hesitant to speak, looking like he was worried about something.
Zhou Jingzhan glanced at him and said, "It was my fault what happened last time. I shouldn't have lost my temper at you."
Zhang Abao's eyes were dim, and he felt sad again when he heard him say that. The dilemma he had at that time seemed to come back to him: "I'm sorry, Master. I really didn't know what to do that time."
"You're right. If you hadn't let him go, I wouldn't know what I would have done."
Zhou Jingzhan became increasingly silent over such a long period of time, and Zhang Abao looked heartbroken: "Don't be unhappy, Master."
Zhang Abao really wanted to persuade him, but he didn't dare to mention Chu Yunqi.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Jingzhan took the initiative to ask: "How is he?"
"After the engagement party, he left the capital."
Zhou Jingzhan nodded, as expected.
"Aunt Qin and the others are very worried about you."
After arriving in Country R, Zhou Jingzhan almost cut off contact with his family, only occasionally calling them.
Hearing this, he replied: "Tell them not to worry."
Two years later, Qin Huiping fell ill and was hospitalized, and Zhou Jing returned to the capital.
When he arrived at the hospital, Qin Huiping had already finished the operation but was still unconscious. Zhou Wenxuan went home and Zhou Jingzhan was guarding her.
In the past two years, Zhou Jingzhan has matured a lot, gradually taking over the family business, and slowly growing into the person the Zhou family imagined him to be.
He was busy all day, traveling on business all over the place, and this long-distance flight, when Qin Huiping woke up, she found her son next to her, asleep from exhaustion.
They had met only a few times in the past two years. Qin Huiping couldn't help crying when she looked at him and gently touched his hair.
Zhou Jingzhan's sleep became very light, and he woke up as soon as Qin Huiping touched him.
The mother and son talked a lot.
After Qin Huiping was discharged from the hospital, Zhou Jingzhan wanted to leave, but Zhou Wenxuan persuaded him to stay, saying that Chu Yunqi had never returned to the capital.
Zhou Jingzhan lowered his head and smiled bitterly: "Dad, actually I can understand him now."
After a pause, he spoke again with a trembling voice: "He wants to leave home, just like I want to stay away from him. I can't control it."
Zhou Wenxuan regretted not letting go after all these years: "If I had known you would be like this, I should have persuaded him to stay."
Zhou Jingzhan shook his head: "Actually, it's not because he wants to get married that I'm willing to let go."
Zhou Wenxuan was puzzled.
Zhou Jingzhan quickly calmed down, not letting his tears fall, and said calmly: "When I smashed his house, a piece of paper fell out of a book. It was his diagnosis certificate for depression in Country M. So I didn't dare to force him."
After listening to this, Zhou Wenxuan frowned and said, "You didn't even tell us about such a big thing."
"I'm grown up now and don't want to worry you all the time."
In the end, Zhou Jingzhan left.
This year during the Spring Festival, he brought back a little boy who was just one month old.
Zhou Wenxuan and his wife were shocked, but naturally they were overjoyed.
Three years later, Qin Huiping's old illness relapsed and she passed away in the spring of that year at the age of sixty.
At that time, Chu Yunqi was supporting medical work in Country F. When he heard the news, his mind went blank and he rushed back without stopping.
The spread of the news took time, and the journey also took time. When Chu Yunqi arrived, the memorial service had just ended.
Zhou Wenxuan hadn't expected him to show up, so he said, "I'll go see Ah Qi, you guys chat first."
The two had not seen each other for five years.
Exhausted and grief-stricken, Zhou Jingzhan was unable to react and asked slowly, "Why are you here?"
Chu Yunqi looked at his pale face and spoke after a long while: "I'm afraid you can't accept it."
"I'm fine."
The two sat side by side on the steps, and Zhou Jingzhan asked, "What have you been busy with recently?"
"We started providing support to Country F at the beginning of the year."
"Very good. Has your hand fully recovered?"
"No, we can't do difficult surgeries."
Zhou Jingzhan was stunned for a moment before continuing: "It's okay, you have talent anyway."
Chu Yunqi didn't respond and asked, "I heard you have a child. Is it the Ah Qi that Uncle Zhou mentioned just now?"
"Yeah, three years old."
Zhou Jingzhan asked again: "Where is Shuyun? How is she?"
"I worked for two years and then went on to study for a doctorate. I will graduate next year."
"fine."
