Chapter 363: That day was also the day when the eldest son was born



Zhou Su and Secretary Gao left together.

Lin Yulan's mood was not affected by the appearance of Secretary Gao.

The meat was steaming in the hot pot.

Zhou Jingyun picked up some meat for Chi Lanlan. Lin Yulan looked at Chi Lanlan with a smile: "You should eat more. You are eating by yourself now, and it takes two people to digest it."

Chi Lanlan nodded. She studied medicine and was quite good at taking care of herself.

When Zhou Su arrived at the hospital, Zhou Benyu's high fever had just subsided, and the skin on his face was still unnaturally red.

He was sleeping soundly, and the nurse next to him immediately stood up and made way for him when he saw Secretary Gao.

Zhou Su saw the obviously aged old man lying on the bed and asked, "What did the doctor say?"

Secretary Gao shook his head: "The doctor said that people live by their mindset."

The old leader was old and his faith suddenly collapsed. It was discovered that Jia Lizhen had been betraying him for decades, but he didn't know it.

In addition, Ms. Song got married recently, and the old leader was already in a depressed state. Now he is old and fails to manage his family well. Isn't this adding insult to injury?

What’s the situation at Zhou Benyu’s home?

Zhou Su is not interested in knowing!

His dark pupils reflected no emotion: "I'll go see the doctor to find out what's going on." With that, he turned and walked away.

The reason why Gao Qiang invited Zhou Su over was because he knew that the old leader cared about Zhou Su.

The doctor looked at Zhou Su, shook his head and said, "The patient's condition is not good. He has difficulty regulating his emotions, and his body functions are constantly declining. Moreover, he is so old. At this age, people rely entirely on their mood and medication to support them."

"Try to spend more time with me. When you're older, companionship is more important than anything else."

Zhou Su listened quietly and nodded lightly.

After the doctor finished speaking, he went back to his own business without hearing the patient's son say anything else.

Zhou Su came out of the doctor's office and returned to the ward. Zhou Benyu just woke up.

Seeing his son coming in from outside, he looked at Zhou Su expectantly.

Zhou Su didn't say anything, but walked to the bed and sat down on the sofa!

They should have been the closest father and son, but they were like strangers.

He just glanced at him indifferently without saying a word!

Zhou Benyu knew that his son resented him in his heart. After all, he had been with his mother since he was a child. When he was young, he was busy and could not take care of the family.

Later, when Zhou Su suffered all kinds of blows, he failed to lend a helping hand in time. Now he has brought it upon himself and cannot blame anyone else.

Only when you get old do you feel heartbroken.

Gao Qiang felt that he had good intentions but ended up with a bad result, and looked at Zhou Su dryly.

Zhou Su then said, "If you're not feeling well, try to rest as much as possible."

He was sitting here and had no intention of going back in a hurry, which made Zhou Benyu feel a little relieved.

He looked at Secretary Gao, who wisely turned around and walked out.

The ward was very quiet, with only the father and son left.

Zhou Benyu didn't say anything, but his eyes were looking expectantly at the kettle next to him.

Zhou Su saw this and stood up to pour water over. However, it was a bit difficult for Zhou Benyu to sit up at this time.

Zhou Su reached out and helped him up, holding his back with one hand and bringing the water to Zhou Benyu's lips with the other.

Zhou Benyu drank two sips of water in this position and waved his hand. He felt so uncomfortable that he couldn't swallow.

Looking at the old man's condition, it's indeed not good.

Zhou Su put the bowl on the table, helped the person down, and sat aside silently.

Because he has Zhou Benyu's blood in his body, it is his responsibility to come and take care of him when he needs it.

But he doesn't want to pay more for him or have other feelings that he shouldn't pay.

The fact that the father and son knew each other but could not talk to each other made Zhou Benyu feel deeply frustrated and painful.

He didn't know how to change the situation between father and son.

However, after so many years, even if he wanted to change now, he was powerless.

Zhou Benyu lay on the bed, licked his lips, and pinched his fingers, not knowing how to express what was in his heart.

He thought for a moment and said, "There's a book in my drawer. Can you help me get it out?"

Zhou Su stood up and took out a book from the drawer. He glanced at it indifferently.

Railway Corps Memorial Album

He placed the booklet next to Zhou Benyu's hand.

Zhou Benyu fumbled with the yellowed paper for a while, then said in a trembling voice, "In my life, I have done nothing wrong to my country, but I have done nothing wrong to you and your mother."

Zhou Su didn't want to hear him mention these old dishes at all. He just looked at him with indifference and asked, "What do you mean by this? What do you want to express?"

Zhou Benyu's eyelids slowly lifted, and he looked at Zhou Su with cloudy eyes. He slowly opened his thin lips and said, "Time cannot be reversed. Even if I regret it now, I can't go back to the past. From the beginning, I was wrong, and I was wrong later."

All he thought about in his life was work.

The person he loved was indeed Song Lingshu, but after they broke up, he used his grief as motivation and threw himself into his work, without ever thinking about trying to make amends or figure things out.

He felt that he had taken responsibility for Jia Lingshu and given Jia Lizhen the title of Mrs. Zhou that she wanted. He didn't want to care about anything else.

So he worked hard all his life and ended up living this chaotic lifestyle.

Zhou Su looked at him holding the book in his trembling hands, his eyes filled with complicated emotions.

He didn't want to be infected by his emotions, and looked outside. It was already very dark.
