Chapter 140 Love Only One Person in Your Life
After chatting with the school girl next to her for a while, Lin Youning was no longer nervous and she waited for the interview with peace of mind.
When she had some free time, she would take out her cell phone to chat with Gu Huaichen and ask about the situation on his side.
After knowing that he had arrived at the hospital, Lin Youning put away his cell phone.
"Mr. Gu." Gu Huaichen just walked to the door of Mr. Zhong's ward, and the housekeeper who was taking care of Mr. Zhong saw him at a glance.
Gu Huaichen raised his eyes, "Uncle Chen."
The butler beside Zhong Zhengping has a high status. Although he is called a butler, he is actually the person in charge of the Zhong family. When Zhong Zhengping's grandchildren see him, they have to call him Uncle Chen respectfully.
Uncle Chen nodded slightly and opened the door of the ward for him.
"Awake?" Gu Huaichen asked.
Uncle Chen nodded, "Just woke up."
Gu Huaichen walked into the ward and saw the person lying on the bed.
"Mr. Zhong." He walked over quickly and asked about Zhong Zhengping's situation.
Zhong Zhengping looked at him and smiled faintly, "I hope I didn't interrupt your work?"
Gu Huaichen shook his head. "How do you feel? What did the doctor say?"
"It's an old problem." Zhong Zhengping had a heart bypass surgery a few years ago and has often had some minor symptoms in recent years.
As we age, our body functions become older.
He patted Gu Huaichen's arm and comforted him with a smile, "Don't worry."
Gu Huaichen: "You've been admitted to the hospital."
Hearing this, Zhong Zhengping glanced at him and said, "I'm old."
Gu Huaichen smiled.
Knowing that Zhong Zhengping was not in immediate danger, Gu Huaichen felt much more relieved.
The two chatted for a while before Zhong Zhengping brought the conversation back to the point. In fact, Zhong Zhengping asked Gu Huaichen to come over today because he had something to ask of him.
The Zhong family is wealthy and has many branches.
After Zhong Zhengping, his sons were quite capable but not very harmonious.
On the surface, they looked like brothers, but in reality, they were fighting to the death. As for the grandson, let alone him.
Over the years, Zhong Zhengping had no choice but to try his best to balance the two. Similarly, he also wanted to find one person among the few who could really carry the group.
But after searching for a long time, I still couldn't make a decision.
In addition to his son, Zhong Zhengping also has a daughter, who is Zhong Yingyuan's mother and the eldest daughter of the Zhong family.
“…”
The two chatted for a long time. At the end, Zhong Zhengping looked at Gu Huaichen and smiled weakly, "I have always felt regretful."
Gu Huaichen paused for a moment, and understood what Zhong Zhengping meant. "Mr. Zhong, I can't accept what you said."
"You and the one from the Lin family, aren't you——"
Before he could finish his words, Gu Huaichen denied it, "Mr. Zhong, I'll bring her to see you if I have a chance."
He looked at Zhong Zhengping and said slowly, "You said before that I look like our old man."
Gu Huaichen smiled, "I didn't admit it before, but I do admit it in terms of feelings."
Having said that, Zhong Zhengping understood.
The old man of the Gu family was famous for his deep affection. When Gu Huaichen's father was young, Gu Huaichen's grandmother passed away.
At that time, Mr. Gu was in his prime. He was just 30 years old, handsome and strong, and had a very big business. There were countless women who were devoted to him, and there were even more women who wanted to be his stepmother.
Seeing that the old man was unmoved, others might think that he was just indifferent on the surface. How could a man of that age not have those thoughts? Even if he had no emotions, he still had physical needs.
But Zhong Zhengping knew that Mr. Gu did not have that kind of attitude, and he remained loyal enough to his deceased wife.
From the age of thirty to now, he has never done anything to let down Gu Huaichen's grandmother, and has always remained single.
When a group of people who knew his situation talked about him, they all couldn't help but sigh that he was a romantic.
It turns out that the idea of marrying only one person and loving only one person in one's lifetime does exist in this world.
“…”
"Sorry." Thinking of what happened to Grandpa Gu, the elder Zhong Zhengping also said sorry to the younger Gu Huaichen with an apologetic look.
Gu Huaichen: "I won't bother with you."
Zhong Zhengping: "I was inconsiderate. I just felt sorry for Yingyuan."
"Ms. Zhong is very good." Gu Huaichen said calmly, "You don't need to worry about her."
Zhong Yingyuan just walked to the door of the ward when she heard these words.
After knowing who was inside, she paused slightly, pursed her lips slightly, turned around and left.
Gu Huaichen and Zhong Zhengping didn't know that Zhong Yingyuan was coming, so they ended the conversation briefly.
Before leaving, Gu Huaichen assured Zhong Zhengping, "I will do my best to fulfill your request."
Zhong Zhengping smiled and said, "I feel relieved when you say that."
Gu Huaichen nodded, "Then I'll go first. You should take good care of yourself. I'll bring my wife to see you after you are discharged from the hospital."
Zhong Zhengping nodded, "Okay."
Zhong Yingyuan entered the ward shortly after Gu Huaichen left.
Zhong Zhengping guessed something when he saw her expression, "...did you hear everything?"
"..." Zhong Yingyuan sat down on the chair next to the old man and pretended to be stupid and asked, "What?"
Zhong Zhengping opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing.
He sighed, "Sit with Grandpa for a while."
Zhong Yingyuan: "I came here just to accompany you."
The two chatted happily about interesting things. After leaving the hospital, Gu Huaichen immediately reported his schedule to Lin Youning and asked her about the interview.
Worried that calling would disturb her, Gu Huaichen resisted the urge to call.
A few minutes later, Lin Youning called him.
"Hello." Gu Huaichen quickly picked up the phone and whispered, "Is it over?"
Lin Youning hummed, "Have you arrived at the company?"
Gu Huaichen: “No.”
He glanced at the distance and asked, "Shall I pick you up?"
Hearing this, Lin Youning wanted to laugh a little, "No."
She walked out slowly, "I have an appointment with Su Ran to have a spa treatment later, and she will pick me up."
Gu Huaichen raised his eyebrows and pretended to be aggrieved, "So I was abandoned?"
Lin Youning: “…”
She chuckled, "What do you mean by giving up? Mr. Gu, you don't have to go to work anymore?"
Gu Huaichen hummed and said righteously, "I'm the boss, I don't have to go for a day."
"No." Lin Youning rejected him, "Mr. Gu, you should just make money."
Gu Huaichen: “Hmm?”
Lin Youning said jokingly, "Otherwise I'm afraid you won't be able to support me."
“I’m good with money,” she emphasized.
Hearing this, Gu Huaichen's lips curled slightly, "Okay, tell me when you're done."
Lin Youning: “…That’s fine.”
She was silent for a moment, feeling strange, "Why didn't you ask me about the interview?"
Gu Huaichen: “No need to ask.”
"Why?" Lin Youning was surprised.
Gu Huaichen: "I believe Mrs. Gu."
He knew very well how beautiful Lin Youning was at dancing.
Lin Youning: “…Oh.”
She couldn't help curling her lips when she heard what Gu Huaichen said, "Everything is going well at the moment. There will be a retest the day after tomorrow."
Gu Huaichen: "Okay, I'll take you there the day after tomorrow."
Lin Youning: "It's a deal."
