Chapter 9 The Cold-blooded Zhan Family
After Chen Di finished seeing the last patient, Xiaomi, the nurse at the front desk, came in, put a note on his desk and said, "This is the VIP ward, this is a note left for you by Miss Xu Yueyao."
Chen Di: I am discharged from the hospital. Thank you for your care these days. Let’s have dinner together when I have time.
After reading it, Chen Di thought of the beautiful figure that flashed by when he looked up during the patient's consultation just now. He smiled and put the note in his book, then stared in a daze at the apple she gave him yesterday.
At this time, Zhan Feng, who was in Liyuan, saw the two people who came to report, and also knew that Xu Yueyao was discharged from the hospital today.
"Mr. Zhan, we can set off now," Zhan Feng said to Zhan Rongxuan, who was dressed in black. He stood in front of the window, his back to the light, his shadow stretched out. He was wearing a black suit and a black shirt, revealing an indescribable sense of loneliness. His face was cold and deep, with a straight nose and tightly pursed lips. However, when he turned around, his deep eyes seemed to light up the whole world in an instant.
"Let's go," Zhan Rongxuan put on sunglasses, turned around and walked out, Zhan Feng and four others, all dressed in black, followed behind him.
When we arrived at Zhan Yunzheng's funeral, the scene was particularly quiet. Everyone was wearing black and lowering their heads. Zhan Rongting and Zhan Rongjing stood aside, and Zhan Rongjing was sobbing softly.
Zhan Rongxuan was dressed in black, with a cold and noble temperament. He walked forward and placed a white flower. Looking at Zhan Yunzheng's face in the photo, the corners of his mouth curled up. "Second uncle, if you meet your eldest brother and sister-in-law, you must kneel down and ask for forgiveness." This is the final advice your nephew gives you.
Zhan Rongxuan came in front of Zhan Rongting, and their eyes met, with a tacit understanding.
"Brother," Zhan Rongjing shouted with red eyes.
"Ajing," Zhan Rongxuan looked at her and patted her shoulder gently. Zhan Rongjing couldn't help but walked forward to hug him and cried softly.
"Rong Xuan is here," Zhan Rong Xuan turned around and saw his third uncle Zhan Yunye and his daughter Zhan Rongjun, who was dressed like a man in a black suit and with short neat hair.
Zhan Yunye greeted Zhan Rongxuan with a kind face, then turned to Zhan Rongting and said, "A Ting, have you investigated clearly whether my second brother was really an accident?"
Zhan Rongting said expressionlessly: "Yes, Third Uncle."
"Alas! I didn't expect that my second brother would have the same accident as my eldest brother and sister-in-law," Zhan Yunye said with a sad expression. His words were ambiguous and the faces of the people present varied.
Zhan Rongxuan's brows were cold and he clenched his fists. He said to Zhan Rongting, "The old man is looking for me, so I'm going to the old house." Then he turned and left.
Zhan Rongting nodded to him, and inadvertently saw a flash of ferocity in Zhan Rongjun's eyes as he looked at Zhan Rongxuan who was walking away, and then he lowered his head calmly.
Zhan Rongxuan went to the old house and looked out the window. He asked Zhan Feng beside him, "How is the investigation going?"
"Third Master, you have been doing things very carefully these years. In recent years, it has mostly been Zhan Rongjun who has been doing things. Her work style is exactly the same as Third Master's. She handles everything very cleanly and wins over the hearts of the people in the group in a subtle way.
"I didn't expect that the seemingly most docile snake is the most poisonous. Otherwise, it wouldn't have given Zhan Rongting such a headache, and he wouldn't have been so eager to divert my firepower."
"Master Zhan, what should we do next?" Zhan Feng asked.
"Have you ever played whack-a-mole? Keep your eyes peeled and hit whoever shows his head, without mercy, uprooting them completely." After Zhan Rongxuan finished speaking, he closed his eyes, placed his slender white hands on his temples, and rested his eyes.
"Okay," Zhan Feng replied. He wanted to tell him that Xu Yueyao was discharged from the hospital, but seeing how tired he looked, he ended up saying nothing.
Arriving at the old house, Zhan Rongxuan went to his room, took off his black clothes, went to the bathroom to take a shower, and when he left the room, he had changed into casual clothes. The casual clothes made him look taller and more slender, and he inadvertently revealed his confidence and composure. The scattered bangs hanging on his forehead made him look more youthful. Then he came to his grandfather Zhan Zhenting's study.
The old man was copying a painting of a horse and was finishing it. Zhan Rongxuan watched quietly on the side. Only after the old man finished painting did Zhan Rongxuan take the painting aside to dry and put away the painting tools.
"I heard you have a woman?" The old man walked to the Go table and sat down.
Zhan Rongxuan paused holding the brush. He didn’t expect the master would ask this. After putting the brush away, he sat opposite the master and said, “Yes.”
The old man played Go with the black pieces and said, "A man cannot be without a woman, but he cannot have only one woman. If you want to do great things, don't let women restrict your fists and feet."
Zhan Rongxuan played Go seriously with the white pieces and said nothing. He knew what the old man meant. His father was a love-brained man who truly loved his mother, which was why he disappointed his grandfather. He was not willing to investigate the cause of his father's death, and it ended in an accident.
Zhan Zhenting glanced at his most beloved grandson, who was also the most perfect successor he had created. He knew that he had been investigating the cause of his father's death for all these years, and he was very satisfied with today's result. Unlike his father, thinking of his father Zhan Yunxiao, his eldest son, he is too soft-hearted and too kind, and is not a qualified successor at all.
Looking at Zhan Rongxuan in front of him, cold, decisive, confident... exactly what an heir should be, he was very proud. He remembered that the master had said that the next generation of the Zhan family would be weak, and that Zhan Rongxuan was cold and aloof and not interested in women. He had been very worried, but he did not expect that he would become wise and have women so quickly. Old Man Zhan was very relieved.
On the way back to the Pear Garden, Zhan Rongxuan looked at the scenery outside and remembered that when he came to the old house today, he thought he would hear his grandfather asking him about his second uncle, but he didn't expect that he didn't ask anything. It was his second son who died, but he was indifferent. Zhan Rongxuan once again experienced the cold-bloodedness of the Zhan family. His grandfather always said that he was not like his father, but like him, but he knew that he was like his father, and he hated this cold-blooded place as much as his father.
Zhan Rongxuan closed his eyes in pain. When he opened them, he had regained his composure. He remembered what his grandfather had said and asked, "That woman...Xu...Yueyao, how is she?"
"Mr. Zhan, she has been discharged from the hospital and is now in Huafu." Zhan Feng replied.
"She was discharged from the hospital. When?" Zhan Rongxuan asked with a frown. Thinking of that tearful face, he wondered if her wound had healed.
"I was discharged from the hospital today. It was Mr. Chen's suggestion." Zhan Feng has already asked clearly.
"Mr. Zhan, are you going to Huafu?" Zhan Feng asked carefully.
"No, has everything been arranged at Huafu?"
"Everything has been arranged. Before Miss Xu checked in, the driver and nanny were already in place. The clothes were all made according to Miss Xu's size. The jewelry, bags and other items were all delivered by the mall manager, and they are all new products of the season. I have also transferred her living expenses today." Zhan Feng reported to him one by one.
Zhan Rongxuan didn't care about these things. Thinking of what she said about someone coveting her beauty, she said, "Arrange someone to watch her," and then closed her eyes.
Zhan Feng looked at Zhan Shao and listened to his tone. He thought that it seemed that Zhan Shao had no romantic feelings for Miss Xu and was still suspicious of her. "Okay, Mr. Zhan, I'll arrange it."
