Chapter 100 Can I Go to Him?
Hospital.
Outside the ward, Zhuang Zenian stood there, his shoulders visibly slumped and his hair turning white.
He watched Jiang Jinyue approach without blinking, and nodded at her.
"Can I talk to you first, Miss Jiang?"
Jiang Jinyue glanced at him and didn't refuse, "Okay."
The two of them walked to the window at one end of the corridor. Zhuang Zenian no longer had the energy to keep the conversation a secret or to lay the groundwork. His first words were:
"Yun Cheng knew that Yu Qing was her son."
"Yeah, I guessed it."
"But she hasn't fully recovered her memory yet."
"Then she..."
"She heard the conversation between me and her father."
At that time, Zhou Yuncheng's test results had just come out. When Zhuang Zenian got the results, she felt like the sky was falling. Why did her lover always have to face such life-threatening challenges when he was so happy?
Zhou Yuncheng's father also started to ask everyone in the family to do matching. Zhou Yuncheng was his proudest and most satisfied child. She inherited his career. Her mission was to make the Zhou Group bigger and bigger and not let it be taken away by a disease.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that his daughter had a child.
He immediately called Zhuang Zenian and asked him to go to the village to find the child.
"Dad," Zhuang Zenian immediately shook his head upon hearing this, "that boy has grown up now. We made that decision back then. Now that we need him, we can go back and look for him.
"I haven't even raised him for a single day, and yet you're already thinking about taking his organs. Dad, we...we're not worthy."
"How are we unworthy?!" The old man slapped the armrest of his chair, sniffing and glaring, "This child shouldn't even be alive in this world! If I hadn't been afraid of alerting the enemy, I would have killed the whole family!"
"Besides, he grew up in the countryside, so giving him some money is enough. What else do you want? I naturally won't tell him that he is Yun Cheng's child." The old man spoke coldly. He didn't feel that the child he had never seen was his own blood. This was a stain on his most outstanding daughter, a stain on him, and a stain on their entire family.
Zhuang Zenian kept his head down, looking listless and speaking in a depressed tone, "Dad, that kid has grown up. He's very good now, and his girlfriend is from the Jiang family."
"Jiang family?"
"Yes, the one who married into the Dai family." Zhuang Zenian sat there, massaging his solar plexus wearily. "They have a good relationship, so how could he possibly care about this money right now?"
"What?! What's going on?" How could a country boy suddenly become a phoenix?
Zhuang Zenian briefly told him what he knew about Bai Yuqing.
"It seems this boy is quite good... and he's kind and upright. So..." The old man praised him, his eyes gleaming with a shrewd light. "If money doesn't work, then let's talk about feelings. Zenian, go tell him about Yuncheng's situation. I believe he'll agree."
Zhuang Zenian was silent and looked extremely haggard. He leaned back on the sofa, thinking about this matter.
Finally, he decided to make a desperate move and said, "Okay, I'll give it a try."
Having said this, Zhuang Zenian looked at Jiang Jinyue. The little girl was listening quietly with no expression on her face. When she saw him stop, she just raised her eyelids and looked at him indifferently.
Zhuang Zenian didn't know what kind of emotion he wanted to see on the girl's face, anger? Or contempt?
In short, he doesn't look so calm.
Just like... Yun Cheng at that time.
When he thought about it now, his heart still ached. He wrapped his coat tightly around himself and continued, "After I finished saying this, Yun Cheng came in."
The atmosphere suddenly became tense and Zhuang Zenian was unable to say anything.
After all, Mr. Zhou was an old fox. He immediately spoke as if nothing had happened, "Yun Cheng, why are you here? When we were little, you just didn't like me talking to Zenian because you were afraid that I would embarrass him. How come you are still afraid now that you are so old?"
Zhou Yuncheng didn't say anything, but his face gradually turned pale.
Everyone's heart sank, they knew she heard it.
"I heard everything you just said."
Her voice was so calm. Sitting there, as if she were watching someone else's story, she looked at Zhuang Zenian and said, "Zhuang Zenian, tell me. Bai...that child, why is he my child?"
Having said this, Zhuang Zenian's hands unconsciously clenched around his chest.
He sighed deeply.
Looking at Jiang Jinyue, he gave a bitter smile, "Heh... At first, I wanted to cover up her painful past, but now, I have to reveal it myself."
Jiang Jinyue looked at him, her eyes turning red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and she looked haggard.
Jiang Jinyue remained silent, his eyes calm.
Zhuang Zenian finally just shook his head and didn't continue the topic. Instead, he said, "We have found a suitable kidney source, so don't worry, Bai Yuqing won't be harmed."
"Yeah." Jiang Jinyue nodded. "Anything else you want to say?"
“No…no more.”
"Well, I'll go in then."
Jiang Jinyue had no desire to chat with Zhuang Zenian, nor did she have the mood to comfort him. So what could she comfort him with?
In the ward.
Zhou Yuncheng was leaning against the head of the bed with his hat on, looking out the window.
Hearing footsteps, she turned around.
"Ms. Zhou."
Jiang Jinyue walked up and looked at her.
She looked okay, a little haggard, but not as bad as I had imagined, and her eyes still had some spirit.
A woman who came from a wealthy family but had a tragic life.
"Miss Jiang."
Zhou Yuncheng lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed.
"Ms. Zhou?" Jiang Jinyue didn't know what she was going to do, but she still tried to dissuade her, "Just sit down."
Zhou Yuncheng stood up resolutely, looked at Jiang Jinyue and bowed deeply, "I'm sorry for the offense I caused you before."
Jiang Jinyue pursed her lips.
She was no longer as calm as she was when facing Zhuang Zenian. She did not hide her complex emotions and compassion for the woman in front of her.
She stepped forward and helped the man up. "No need to do this, really."
Zhou Yuncheng stood up and looked at the girl in front of him, his eyes very gentle. "When we first met, I could sense your hostility towards me. At that time, I didn't know why. But recently, I have been repeatedly recalling the scenes of several meetings with... Yu Qing."
She seemed to be lost in memories again, her eyes far-reaching. "I can probably guess why you are hostile to me."
"Ignorance is not a crime, I don't blame you. This is just me... throwing a tantrum." Jiang Jinyue said.
Zhou Yuncheng shook his head and asked, "I heard you went skiing a while ago?"
The topic changed so quickly that Jiang Jinyue was stunned for a moment before nodding, "Yes."
"Thank you, Miss Jiang."
"Originally, I should have taken him on these activities, skiing, studying abroad, and I should have been the one supporting him, but I'm an incompetent mother."
Jiang Jinyue frowned slightly, a little worried about her current self-blame. "Ms. Zhou, I still say the same thing: ignorance is not a crime."
"I still haven't remembered a lot of things, but I remember that I seemed to have told him that I would go back to pick him up."
Jiang Jinyue's pupils trembled slightly, and he didn't know what to say.
"I broke my promise then."
Zhou Yuncheng looked at Jiang Jinyue and stated the purpose of his meeting with her: "If my surgery is successful, can I go find him?"
