Chapter 173 Returning Home
Su Qingyan has been very free recently. He couldn't help with Su Chonglin's affairs, so he handed it over to the legal team. Although they still can't meet, he learned from the lawyer that Su Chonglin's physical condition is gradually returning to normal, and it is only a matter of time before he recovers to his original state.
But the lawyer did not dare to tell him that the gunshot wounds on Su Chonglin's body that almost took his life were caused by trying to stop Wan Lin from escaping.
But the reality is that Wan Lin still escaped amidst the hail of bullets and is still at large.
After staying at home doing nothing for a few days, Su Qingyan came to terms with it. As long as his father was in good health, everything could start over again. Even if all the assets were confiscated, the worst that could happen was that he could start from scratch. It was not like he didn't have the ability to do that.
After figuring this out, he immediately fell into another trouble.
This hard-earned long vacation made him think about going to the United States to accompany Zhou Cheng for further studies. He would prepare a candlelight dinner at home and wait for Zhou Cheng to get off work to give him a surprise. He had never dared to imagine such a pleasant day before.
However, it was just a thought now, and the idea only flashed through his mind. The reality was cruel. His activities were now restricted, and it was difficult for him to leave the city, let alone go abroad.
Su Qingyan stayed at home for several days before slowly recovering, but his face was still tense and his smile was more reluctant than before.
Only when I video chat with Zhou Cheng every day do I seem like a living person.
"I regret it very much now." Su Qingyan lay on the sofa, browsing the emails in the mailbox while eating breakfast.
"What are you regretting?" Zhou Cheng took a few bites of the unappetizing white food, then took the plate and poured the remaining food into the trash can.
"I regret not buying a property near the hospital where you were studying. You wouldn't be living in such a small rental house now." Su Qingyan glanced at her phone and pushed the plate aside when she saw him throwing away the trash.
"What's the point of me living in such a big house alone?" Zhou Cheng turned around, picked up his phone, and walked towards the bathroom.
"It's too late to say anything now. I can't go over. This life is so boring." After dealing with the emails, Su Qingyan turned over and found a comfortable position again, holding up his phone and continued to look at Zhou Cheng, "How many months will it take for you to come back?"
"More than three months, it will go by quickly." Zhou Cheng said as he took off his clothes.
"There are still a hundred days left where we can see but not eat."
"You don't let me go back." Zhou Cheng put his mobile phone on the "Su Qingyan's special observation point".
"Just focus on your studies. When you come back, you'll have to support me, a homeless man."
Su Qingyan now gets up early every day just to spend the short free time after get off work with Zhou Cheng, but there are also many times when she receives Zhou Cheng's video invitation almost at noon.
Although Zhou Cheng's time was busy, it was very fulfilling.
After chatting with Su Qingyan for a while, the fatigue of the day dissipated.
The Su family's case was tried for another two months before Mincheng slowly recovered. Su Qingyan finally had something to do, so he immediately regrouped and returned quietly with his loyal team.
Because the business had been stagnant for so long, it was difficult to immediately reconnect with funding, and that's when Lucas came to their rescue. It wasn't simply because they were traveling together to Antarctica, but because Lucas's grandfather had recently been admitted to Massachusetts General Hospital, where Zhou Cheng's teacher was in charge. Lucas ran into Zhou Cheng in the ward, who was visiting him.
The old man's condition was not mild, but he was eventually cured by the miraculous doctors at the famous Massachusetts General Hospital.
Although this is basically all thanks to Teacher Zhou Cheng, in several critical moments, it was Zhou Cheng who was on the clinical front line who discovered the situation in advance and provided timely treatment, thus turning the crisis into safety.
Zhou Cheng has always felt that curing illnesses and saving lives is his responsibility, and he never thought of using this to maintain relationships.
But now it really helps Su Qingyan a lot.
With Lucas' timely help, the Su Group immediately got back on track. After Su Qingyan became busy again, he helplessly found that he had no time to look for Zhou Cheng.
Once you get busy, time goes at double speed.
On the day of the beginning of winter, Zhou Cheng's plane returning to China landed in Mincheng.
Although he video-chatted with Su Qingyan almost every day, when he saw him standing in front of him in person, Zhou Cheng still felt that there were some indescribable changes in him.
"I said you've lost weight. How can you not lose weight if you eat grass every day?" Su Qingyan hugged Zhou Cheng and pinched his waist.
"Mr. Su, do you have any plans for the time being?" Zhou Cheng held his restless hand.
"The relief grain from the imperial court has finally arrived. Shouldn't I have a full meal first?"
Su Qingyan personally drove to pick up Zhou Cheng and went home with him with a smile on his face.
After resting at home for a few days, Zhou Cheng returned on time on Monday and appeared at the morning meeting of the General Surgery Ward 2.
Because Zhou Cheng's performance in all aspects has been exceptionally good in the past year, his paper with Gu Yi was successfully published, and his examination score for associate chief physician was surprisingly high, his appointment to the professional title was a natural outcome.
Before his 30th birthday, Zhou Cheng was successfully appointed as associate chief physician of the First Affiliated Hospital. Because he was responsible for the scientific research and teaching tasks in the department, he would be promoted to deputy director soon.
Zhou Cheng doesn't care much about these titles. He just wants to be a skilled doctor.
When Zhou Cheng’s birthday was just a few days away, news suddenly came from the procuratorate.
"I'll drive, don't worry." Zhou Cheng saw Su Qingyan's flustered look and his heart was beating fast. He didn't know what the sudden request for the family members to come over meant.
Although Su Qingyan has always been optimistic, he was nervous and didn't say a word along the way. When he arrived at the destination, he was told that he could take Su Chonglin home temporarily.
"Is it over?" Su Qingyan was still confused.
"Wait for the court session," the lawyer explained to him.
No matter what, it’s a good thing that the family is finally reunited.
Su Qingyan came in a hurry and had nothing prepared. When she saw Su Chonglin appear in front of her with gray hair, she couldn't help feeling a pang of sadness in her heart.
Zhou Cheng held his hand tightly to prevent him from getting too excited.
"Come on, let's take a shower to get rid of the bad luck." Su Qingyan took a step forward and pulled Su Chonglin to his side.
After settling into the car, Zhou Cheng turned around in the driver's seat and asked Su Chonglin, "Uncle, how are you feeling now?"
"I've recovered a long time ago, Xiao Zhou, you don't have to worry." Although Su Chonglin looked much older, his spirit was still as good as usual.
"I'll take you to the hospital for a physical examination in a few days." Zhou Cheng was still worried.
"Dad, you can't call Zhou Cheng Xiao Zhou anymore. He is Director Zhou now." Su Qingyan interrupted.
"Oh? Xiao Zhou was promoted? That's as he should be." Su Chonglin looked happy.
"Not yet..." Zhou Cheng suddenly felt uncomfortable after hearing this.
"Work hard and you will have a bright future." Su Chonglin nodded with satisfaction.
"Dad, why don't you praise me? I have elderly parents and young children to take care of, it's not easy for me, okay?"
"Huh? There's a baby down there? You have a child?" Su Chonglin looked at Su Qingyan's belly in confusion.
“???” Su Qingyan was puzzled and then rolled his eyes.
Zhou Cheng chuckled and started the car.
"Old Lu cheated you, Little Lu cheated me, the Lu family is really good at it." Su Qingyan swallowed his complaints and began to criticize the Lu family.
"Lu Ze is really patient. He kept it a secret from us for so many years." Su Chonglin only found out about the relationship between Lu Jinshen and Lu Ze during the interrogation.
After they took Su Chonglin to take a bath and get a haircut, Su Chonglin finally returned to his previous appearance.
Su Qingyan personally straightened Su Chonglin's collar and said seriously, "Dad, no matter what happens in the future, please don't take risks like this time, okay?"
