"Does Uncle know her?" Qin Baoguo couldn't help but ask, sensing that Xiao Tanghai implied that he knew Qiao Qiqi.
Xiao Tanghai immediately looked away, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I saw it at your grandmother's house."
"Oh." Qin Baoguo didn't take it seriously and turned to walk towards the ward. "Grandma has been awake for a while now, Uncle, come in with me to see her!"
"Hmm." Xiao Tanghai withdrew his gaze and entered the ward.
When the old lady saw him arrive, she immediately said, "There's so much going on at the company, why did you come all this way? I'm fine, you don't all need to come see me."
"Isn't it only right that I come to see you? If you don't want us to worry, then take good care of yourself." Xiao Tanghai's face was full of filial piety. Seeing that there were peaches in the pocket by the bed, he immediately took out two and went to wash them.
Aunt Zhou glanced at it and wanted to stop her, but the old lady gently shook her head, took the peeled peach, and took a bite.
It was sweet and fragrant, and incredibly juicy. She hadn't eaten such delicious peaches in years.
The old lady usually eats very little fruit because her blood sugar is a little high, but at this moment she couldn't stop eating and quickly finished the whole peach.
Even Aunt Zhou exclaimed in surprise, "You haven't eaten such a big peach in a year! This peach must be really delicious!"
The old lady was a little embarrassed. "These peaches are indeed delicious. I don't know if it's just my imagination, but after eating these peaches, I actually feel much more comfortable."
Aunt Zhou laughed at her, "You're feeling comfortable because you enjoyed the food."
"Maybe." The old lady wasn't sure either, but she was even less inclined to believe that a peach could have such a magical effect.
After wiping her hands clean, the old lady couldn't help but say to Xiao Tanghai, "Xiao Qi has been gone for several years now. It's not easy for you to manage the company and take care of two children all by yourself. Why don't you find a second wife?"
Xiaoqi was the old lady's second daughter, who passed away from illness four years ago.
The old lady had three children in her lifetime. Her eldest son was taken away at birth and his whereabouts are still unknown. Her youngest son devoted himself to the battlefield and died in battle a few years ago.
The eldest grandson followed in his father's footsteps and joined the army; he became Qin Baoguo.
The company that Xiao Tanghai currently manages is a state-owned bearing factory in Beijing. After the old lady retired from the battlefield, the leadership originally handed it over to her to manage. Later, as the old lady got older, she handed it over to her second daughter.
Xiao Tanghai met his wife at work. The two worked together very well, and after their second daughter passed away, the leaders decided in a meeting to hand over the bearing factory to Xiao Tanghai.
Xiao Tanghai is quite capable; under his management, the bearing factory has been developing very well in recent years.
This successfully silenced those who had previously claimed that the Qin family was controlling the bearing factory.
At this moment, the old lady brought up the issue of remarriage for the first time. Xiao Tanghai's expression changed, and he immediately said, "Mother, are you annoyed by me? If you are annoyed by me, just say so. Why say such things? I have said that I will only love Xiaoqi in my life. Even if she dies, I will stay by her side and will never marry another."
The old lady looked into his eyes and didn't try to persuade him anymore. She just said, "You have to decide your own affairs. I'm telling you this now. If you have any ideas in the future, just come to me directly. You don't need to ask me."
After chatting for so long and eating, the old lady's face clearly showed signs of fatigue.
"I'm going to take a nap. You all go about your business. Don't keep coming here unless it's important. I have a doctor and Aunt Zhou here. I don't need you to keep me company."
Qin Baoguo and Xiao Tanghai both knew the old lady's temper and dared not anger her, so they both left the ward.
Qin Baoguo had to return to his unit. He asked Xiao Tanghai a few questions about his younger cousins before hurriedly getting into his car and leaving.
Xiao Tanghai got into the car but didn't leave immediately. He didn't know why, but lately he had been feeling uneasy.
Thinking of the girl he had seen on the stairs earlier, Xiao Tanghai felt uneasy seeing her appear twice so quickly, and instructed his son in the passenger seat: "Go and check the background of the girl who came to the hospital today."
Xiao Jinpeng put away the cards in his hand, looking completely unconcerned.
"What kind of trouble can a girl cause? You're being too cautious!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Tanghai's face instantly darkened.
"We've gotten this far because of our caution and prudence. We're at the very last step, so we absolutely cannot let our guard down, understand?"
"You've said this countless times, and I've been careful all along."
Xiao Jinpeng said he knew, but he clearly didn't care. He even said with a sinister tone, "That old man is already at his last gasp. The doctor said he'll definitely be meeting the King of Hell in six months at most. We've replaced almost everyone in the company in the past few years. Once that old man dies, won't we be the ones calling the shots in the company? Don't worry!"
How could Xiao Tanghai be at ease?
As long as there is still one thorn in his side in the company, he will never be able to put his mind at ease.
Thinking of this, Xiao Tanghai felt exhausted. "In short, we still have to be careful in everything. Even if the old man is dead, there's still Qin Baoguo. Although he has no interest in business, if he finds out what we've been doing, we're finished."
"At worst, we can treat him like we treated my uncle, and just... bang!"
Xiao Jinpeng made a shooting gesture, grinning wickedly, "How wonderful it would be if they, father and son, went to hell in the same way!"
"That was years ago. Now the military's management is more than 10 times stricter than it was 5 years ago. If I could take action, I would have done it long ago."
Seeing that he had said so much and his son was still having wild ideas, Xiao Tanghai was instantly disappointed in him.
Suddenly I remembered those two little brats who ran away...
He originally thought dealing with those two brats would be the easiest thing, but unexpectedly, the men he sent out chased them for a year and still hadn't brought back their heads.
The thought of this made Xiao Tanghai furious.
"They're all a bunch of good-for-nothings!"
When Qiao Qiqi returned to the Fang family home, Fang Ke had already gotten up and was sitting on the sofa watching TV with Xin Xin.
When Qiao Qiqi returned, Fang Ke looked up and asked, "Qiqi, where did you go? I woke up and didn't see you. I thought you went to buy groceries. I took Xinxin and looked for you, but we couldn't find you."
Qiao Qiqi looked up.
She kept thinking about the man she had seen at the hospital who looked so much like Qin Huai, but because she hadn't been there long, she hadn't had a chance to ask him his name...
Bringing herself back to reality, Qiao Qiqi suddenly said, "Fang Ke, I want to buy a ticket to go home."
Two weeks have passed in the blink of an eye. In two more days, it will be 20 days. Qiao Qiqi suddenly realized that she missed Qin Huai!
I didn't realize it before.
But after seeing the man who looked like Qin Huai at noon, her longing suddenly surged up.
She then realized how much she missed Qin Huai!
I can't wait to see him right now!
Then she threw herself into his arms!
