Chapter 1463 Lin Lao is seriously ill
Seeing the remains of Mr. Li, Qiao Dongliang couldn't help crying. He was as excited as Mr. Li's children. Qiao Dongliang always remembered that after his father passed away, it was Mr. 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, and even though their later life was a mess, Qiao Dongliang never pushed the responsibility for these things onto Mr. Li, thinking it was Mr. Li's fault. Ding Jiayi was his wife, and if Ding Jiayi had problems, he, as her husband, should discipline her.
He himself did not realize it, and gave Ding Jiayi the opportunity to teach him bad things, neglect him, and ruin his family. Thinking of how much Mr. Li helped him, but he was unable to repay him in the end, Qiao Dongliang was so sad that he could not describe it in words.
He might even start to worry that one day he would become like Mr. Li now, and suddenly not be able to see the sun again.
Other families have such worries, and the Zhai family certainly has them too.
After arriving at the Lin family next door, Zhai Sheng rang the doorbell. Unexpectedly, before Zhai Sheng could reveal his identity, the door of the Lin family was opened electronically.
Zhai Sheng was stunned for a moment, and some bad thoughts came to his mind. Elder 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 Elder Lin's situation is not good.
Thinking of Qiao Nan's regard and respect for Mr. Lin, and the closeness between his three children and Mr. Lin, Zhai Sheng's face became much more solemn, and his steps were not as powerful as before. Instead, he walked forward with a sense of stagnation.
"I'm here." Seeing Zhai Sheng, Elder Lin smiled. However, when Zhai Sheng saw Elder Lin's thin face, his heart felt like it was hit hard, and he almost couldn't breathe: "Elder Lin, how could you be so thin?"
Seeing Elder Lin sitting in the 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 for treatment. Nan Nan will accompany you, Nan Nan is also willing." Nan Nan said that she wanted to take care of Elder Lin in his old age.
Elder Lin smiled, a very confident and happy smile: "I know, I accepted this disciple personally, I know very well what kind of child she is." There is no filial son for a child who has been lying on a sickbed for a long time, but he can proudly tell everyone that his disciple Qiao Nan will definitely be by his bedside, guarding him and never leaving him.
But, one cannot be so selfish.
He Yi told him that the recent period was the most critical time for Qiao Nan. Through the efforts of the past few 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 also realized that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has such a fresh blood injection and presence.
Nothing is absolute. There were no female diplomats in Chinese history, not even female ministers. That doesn't mean 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 no one would be willing to take care of him if he got sick and was hospitalized. On the contrary, he was too worried that Nan Nan would be filial to him and would definitely ask for leave from work to take care of him, missing the best performance period, and would not leave him and take care of him until he died.
No, he can't do that.
He has worked so hard for so long and helped his apprentice so much, allowing his apprentice to persist until now. Isn't it because he hopes that when He Yi retires, his apprentice will 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 apprentice over the past decade be in vain?
Zhai Sheng's voice was deep, with a hint of disapproval in his tone: "You should understand that if Nan Nan knew the truth, she would definitely not be able to accept it and would feel very painful. Nan Nan has a weak bond with her family. However, your appearance and your care and love for Nan Nan thawed her frozen heart. In Nan Nan's heart, you are her closest relative. In this world, no one is more important than a close relative."
Career, of course, is not
When Lin Yuankang accepted Qiao Nan as his apprentice, Qiao Dongliang was still confused and Ding Jiayi's heart was extremely biased.
If it weren't for Zhai Sheng's help and Lin Yuankang's recognition, for Qiao Nan, who had lived a new life, even if she could persevere and survive, her heart would never be warm again, and she would not be able to believe that others were truly in love with her.
Only Zhai Sheng, the man who was sleeping beside him, knew best that the appearance of Elder Lin was the first ray of sunshine of salvation in Qiao Nan's life, who was in despair at that time.
Elder Lin sniffed and lowered his voice: "I know, I know everything. This child has a very good heart. I understand. Because I understand, I can't do it. My life has not been lived in vain, it is quite wonderful. But what you don't know is that in my world, there is more emptiness. Nan Nan is my apprentice. Sometimes I love her like my own daughter, and sometimes I love her like my granddaughter. How can I bear to make her sad and blame herself?"
Between him and his disciple, who is the salvation of whom, only he and his disciple know.
"Birth, aging, sickness and death, this is the law that cannot be changed. The longer Nan Nan stays with me, the less I will live. But I know that Nan Nan's heart will always be with me, and that is enough." How could he let his body drag down his apprentice's future?
Two words: No!
"Zhai Sheng, I asked you to come see me today to comfort Nan Nan and the three children. Maybe, when I leave, Nan Nan will blame you. But Zhai Sheng, you have to remember that you are a man, and you should support this piece of land for Nan Nan. You must endure this little scolding, we are all for Nan Nan's good. After I, I leave, you have to help me love Nan Nan, understand?"
Mr. Lin is old, and he has seen all kinds of scenes and experienced all kinds of life and death. But when this happened to him, Mr. 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."
