Chu Xinglin replied, "I met her when I was very young. She used to be my grandmother's friend, but I haven't seen her since my grandparents passed away."
She wanted to help us when our family had that accident, but my dad said he didn't want to drag her down, so we didn't tell her when we moved away.
In my memory, that grandmother was gentle and elegant, and spoke softly. He seemed to have a particularly good relationship with his grandmother, and naturally, she was very kind to him as well.
She lost contact with her grandparents after they passed away. After the family incident, she contacted her father, but he didn't want to bother others, so he secretly moved out without telling her. Who knew she had connections with the business owner?
“I investigated and found out that Teacher Zhu was that old man’s first love. He couldn’t have her and did many things to hurt Grandma Zhu. It wasn’t until he almost killed Teacher Zhu that he let go of his obsession and stopped bothering her.”
However, she hadn't given up monitoring his life all these years, and Teacher Zhu eventually realized it. That's why she ran away with her lover and only came back occasionally. Each time she returned, she kept it a secret and didn't tell anyone.
So the other party lost contact with her for many years. The old man and his wife had a business marriage and no feelings for each other. He could never let go of Teacher Zhu.
…
Chu Xinglin paused for a moment. Wan Ge seemed to recall what Shang Xiaoyin had done to him. The grandfather and grandson were alike, both of them were disgusting and repulsive.
Wan Ge squeezed his hand: "I won't let him hurt you again, don't worry."
Chu Xinglin nodded: "Yes, I believe you."
At least things have really improved for him now. His family is safe and sound, and he has a stable job. With her protection, Shang Xiaoyin doesn't dare to openly cause him trouble anymore.
Now my parents don't have any work problems, and I don't have to worry that Shang Xiaoyin will cause them any trouble at work.
…
When the two entered the ward, Mr. Chu was feeding Mrs. Chu.
The surgery was successful, but recovery will take time. However, after learning of the success of their surgery, Mr. and Mrs. Chu's condition improved significantly. Mr. Chu also smiled more often, and maintaining a positive mood is beneficial to his condition.
When he saw them come in, he was in a particularly good mood: "You two are here, please have a seat."
Wan Ge and Chu Xinglin sat down beside her and asked with concern, "How are you feeling now, Auntie? What did the doctor say?"
Mrs. Chu immediately replied, "The doctor said I should stay in the hospital for observation for a week. If there are no other problems, I can be discharged. Then I can just pick up my medication and have regular check-ups."
"Okay, that's good."
…
Mr. Chu's health is much better now, so he wants to stay at the hospital with him.
Chu Xinglin thought that since there was a rest room in the ward, his father wouldn't have too much of a problem here, so he agreed.
Wan Ge drove Chu Xinglin home, but when they got downstairs, she said, "Now that Auntie's health isn't too bad, are you in the mood to date me?"
Chu Xinglin looked at the woman in front of him, and instead of immediately agreeing, he asked, "Do you really want to be with me?"
Wan Ge pulled his collar, making him lean closer to her: "At a time like this, you're not going to back out, are you?"
"No, I have no objection as long as you're willing."
Chu Xinglin clenched his fists involuntarily as he answered.
Wan Ge gently released his hand, watching his reaction: "Don't you want to be with me?"
Wan Ge knew very well that the other person liked her; she could sense whether he liked her or not. But his conflicted expression made Wan Ge feel that he must have many concerns, and that he might not want to be with her right now.
But why? Could it be that Shang Xiaoyin's influence on him has left too much of a psychological scar, causing him to have no interest in dating now? Does he not want to be associated with romance?
Chu Xinglin watched as she let go of him, wanting to take a step back, but the next second he hugged her tightly again: "No, I like you, I want to be with you."
He really wanted to, even though he knew it was wrong, but... but he really loved Wan Ge.
…
…
Half a month later, Wan Ge heard that Shang Xiaoyin and his grandfather had been resuscitated several times in the hospital ward before they were finally saved.
Once he regained consciousness and was slightly more alert, he immediately sent people to search for Teacher Zhu's whereabouts.
Since Wan Ge dared to show it to others, she had already ensured Teacher Zhu's safety, so it was impossible for them to find any related information.
However, while searching for information about Teacher Zhu, Shang Xiaoyin also kept an eye on the old man to prevent him from seeing any related news.
This can be considered as being on guard against Wan Ge, but how is that enough?
The old man couldn't bring himself to do it, and the scandals involving his parents had already become a trending topic.
…
Wan Ge sat in the chair: "Doesn't the male lead have way too much dirt on his family? Do I really need to take action?"
Ruan Ruan replied softly, "My lord, your task is not to defeat the male lead, so naturally the male lead is no match for you."
Ruan Ruan's words suddenly reminded Wan Ge that her people had been bullied, but she was so angry that she had forgotten about it for a moment.
However, a male protagonist like Shang Xiaoyin is indeed unnecessary.
Wan Ge put down her work and went straight to Chu Xinglin's workplace.
As soon as she arrived, Qin Wanxun stood behind her: "Your little boyfriend, I don't know what happened, he's been working so hard, he even revised my plan late last night."
"You asked him to revise the plan in the middle of the night?" Wan Ge glared at the person next to her.
