Chapter 1470 Elder Lin is seriously ill
Seeing Elder Li’s last face, Qiao Dongliang couldn’t control his tears. His excited look was no less than that of Elder Li’s children. Qiao Dongliang always remembered that after his father passed away, it was Elder Li who helped him, cared for him, and watched him start a family like a father.
Even though Ding Jiayi was not a good wife and mother, even though their later life was a mess, Qiao Dongliang never pushed the responsibility for these things onto Elder Li, thinking it was Elder Li’s fault. Ding Jiayi was his wife, and Ding Jiayi had problems, and he, as a husband, should have disciplined her.
He was the one who didn’t realize it, and gave Ding Jiayi the opportunity to teach her badly, neglected her, and broke up a good family. When Qiao Dongliang thought about how much Mr. Li had helped him, but he was unable to repay him in the end, his sadness could not be described in words.
He even worried that one day he would suddenly not be able to see the sun the next day, just like Mr. Li now.
Other people had such worries, and the Zhai family certainly had them too.
After arriving at the Lin family next door, Zhai Sheng rang the doorbell. Who knew that before Zhai Sheng could reveal his identity, the door of the Lin family was opened electronically.
Zhai Sheng was stunned for a moment, and had a bad idea in his mind. Mr. Lin refused to see Nan Nan and the three children, but was willing to open the door for him at this time. I'm afraid that Mr. Lin's situation is not good anymore.
Thinking of Qiao Nan's regard and respect for Elder Lin, and the closeness of his three children to Elder Lin, Zhai Sheng's face became more serious, and his steps were not as powerful as before. Instead, he walked forward with a sense of stagnation.
"I'm here." Elder Lin smiled when he saw Zhai Sheng. However, when Zhai Sheng saw Elder Lin's thin face, his heart seemed to be hit hard, and he almost couldn't breathe: "Elder Lin, how could you be so thin?"
Seeing Elder Lin sitting in a wheelchair, Zhai Sheng estimated that Elder Lin's weight should be lighter than that of a normal woman: "Is there any problem with your body? If so, don't worry, we will go to the hospital as soon as possible. Nan Nan will accompany you, and Nan Nan is also willing." Nan Nan said that she wanted to take care of Elder Lin in his old age.
Elder Lin smiled, and smiled confidently and happily: "I know, I personally accepted this apprentice, and I know very well what kind of child she is." It is said that there is no filial son for a long-term sickbed, but he can proudly tell everyone that his little apprentice Qiao Nan will definitely be guarding him in front of his bed, never leaving him.
However, people cannot be so selfish.
He Yi told him that the recent period of time is the most critical time for Qiao Nan. Through the efforts of these years, Qiao Nan's strength and ability have not only been recognized by many people in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but even the leaders of the central government have realized that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has such a fresh blood injected and existence as Qiao Nan.
Nothing is absolute. There have been no female diplomats or even female diplomat ministers in Chinese history before, but it does not mean that there are no female diplomats now.
Lin Yuankang didn't want Qiao Nan to be distracted by his own affairs. He was not afraid that he would be sick and hospitalized and no one would be willing to take care of him. On the contrary, he was too worried about the filial piety of Nan Nan to him. She would definitely ask for leave from work to take care of him, and miss the best performance period in vain. She would not leave him and take care of him until she died.
No, he couldn't do that.
He worked so hard for so long and helped his apprentice so much, allowing him to persist until today. Wasn't it because he hoped that when He Yi retired, his apprentice would take over?
The apprentice now has the ability and qualifications, and is very popular in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. If something goes wrong at this time, wouldn't all the efforts and hard work of him and his little apprentice over the past ten years be in vain?
Zhai Sheng's voice was dark, with a tone of disapproval: "You should understand that if Nan Nan knew the truth, she would definitely not be able to accept it and feel very painful. Nan Nan has a weak family bond. It can be said that your appearance and your care and love for Nan Nan
thawed Nan Nan's frozen heart. In Nan Nan's heart, you are her closest relative. In this world, no one can be more important than the closest relatives." Career, of course, is not an option.
When Lin Yuankang accepted Qiao Nan as his apprentice, Qiao Dongliang was still confused, and Ding Jiayi's heart was even more biased.
If it weren't for Zhai Sheng's help and Lin Yuankang's recognition, Qiao Nan, who had lived a new life, would never be able to warm her heart again, and she would never be able to believe that others were truly in love with her.
Only Zhai Sheng, the man beside her, knew best that the appearance of Mr. Lin was the first ray of sunshine of salvation in Qiao Nan's life when she was in despair.
Elder Lin sniffed and lowered his voice: "I know, I know everything. This child has a very good heart. I understand. It is because I understand that I cannot do it. My life has not been lived in vain, it is quite wonderful. But what you don't know is that there is more emptiness in my world. Nan Nan is my apprentice. Sometimes I love her like my own daughter, and sometimes I love her like my own granddaughter. How can I bear to make her sad and feel guilty?"
Who is the savior of whom between him and his little apprentice? Only heaven, earth, he and his little apprentice know.
"Birth, aging, sickness and death, this is a law that cannot be changed. Nan Nan stays with me for a few more days, but I won't live a few more hours. But I know that Nan Nan's heart is always with me, and that is enough." How could he let his body drag down his little apprentice's future.
Two words: No!
"Zhai Sheng, I asked you to come see me today to comfort Nan Nan and the three children. Perhaps, when I am gone, Nan Nan will blame you. But Zhai Sheng, you must remember that you are a man, and you should have built this world for Nan Nan. You must endure these little scoldings, we are all for Nan Nan's good. After I, I am gone, you have to help me love Nan Nan more, understand?"
Elder Lin is old, he has seen all kinds of scenes, and experienced all kinds of life and death. But when this happened to him, Elder Lin realized how complicated and painful the emotions were.
When he was young, he was scolded and beaten, and struggled to survive in a foreign country. No matter how hard his life was, he never shed a tear.
But when he mentioned Qiao Nan and the three treasures to Zhai Sheng, Elder Lin couldn't help it, and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, "I, I, I can't bear to let them go."
