Chapter 327 The Old Man’s Wish
Zhou Shuang didn't want to spend too much time explaining to him.
Qi Huaijing felt a little annoyed. His Shuangshuang had never been so harsh and resolute in her words to him.
That guy named Fu Yu, he will definitely take care of him one day.
"You can go, but take the medicine first. Also, I'm going to take you back to Haicheng today. Don't forget that we have more important things to do."
After Qi Huaijing finished speaking, Zhou Shuang remembered that the Mid-Autumn Festival was coming soon and they had to go back to Haicheng to hold their wedding.
Great-grandfather is still in the hospital and has not been discharged yet. He will be so disappointed if he can't wait for her to come home.
Great Grandfather was already very sad to know that Zhou Yanli would never wake up again. If Great Grandfather's health could not recover because of this incident, she would never live in peace for the rest of her life.
"Brother Xiaoyu went to the hospital to save me. If I didn't go to see him when he was in danger, would I still be considered a human being?"
Haicheng must be returned, but Qi Huaijing has a private jet, right?
If they want to go back, they can leave at any time, as long as they get home before the Mid-Autumn Festival. Brother Xiaoyu's life is hanging by a thread, and it would be too unkind of her not to even take a look at him.
Qi Huaijing knew that he couldn't persuade her. He knew that no matter how much Zhou Shuang objected, she would definitely go to the hospital. Instead of letting her go by herself, it would be better to keep her under his watch.
Last time she hit Xiaoyu's car, and this time she had a car accident with Xiaoyu again. Every time she saw this man, she would suffer some serious injuries. Qi Huaijing was not at ease at all.
"I'll go get the car ready. Come out after you've changed your clothes. I'll take you to the hospital. But we only have half an hour. We have to leave for Haicheng in half an hour. Don't forget your family and your great-grandfather are waiting for us."
This sentence can control Zhou Shuang better than anything else.
She didn't say anything, but quickly changed her clothes and got out of bed. Qi Huaijing's medicine was still on the bedside table, so she took it and took it without hesitation.
Qi Huaijing was waiting for her downstairs. After Zhou Shuang changed her clothes and came down, the two of them went to the hospital together.
There were several paparazzi guarding the door of Fu Yu's ward.
After Qi Huaijing made the call, the paparazzi suddenly had urgent matters and were called away one by one.
Only then was Zhou Shuang able to enter the ward. Fu Yu's brothers also saw Zhou Shuang coming and stared at her with unhappy expressions.
"What are you doing here? Don't you think it's not enough to harm Brother Yu?"
"Go back quickly, Brother Yu doesn't want to see you."
At this time, Fu Yu was lying on the hospital bed. It was obvious that he had not woken up after the operation.
Zhou Shuang's eyes and heart were filled with guilt.
"Speak politely to my wife."
Qi Huaijing saw the hostility of Fu Yu's brothers towards Zhou Shuang and stood firmly behind her.
Almost everyone in Rongcheng's upper class knew Qi Huaijing, not to mention Fu Yu's brothers. When he appeared, everyone's pupils were shocked.
"This person seems to be Qi Huaijing"
"Is this true? Is it Qi Huaijing? I've only seen him in business magazines. He never appears in public. How could he be here?"
"Are you stupid? Didn't you hear him call Brother Yu's girlfriend his wife?"
"No way, Brother Yu has so many girlfriends, and this time he even played with someone's wife. This is really too much."
The man who had just been aggressive towards Zhou Shuang lost his momentum in an instant.
Who is Qi Huaijing? No one in the business world doesn't know his reputation.
When he was only in his teens, he led the already declining Qi family to fight his way out of poverty and made the family a leader in the industry, bringing it back to its peak.
No matter in which industry, Qi Huaijing's legend is like a god-like existence, and everyone respects him.
When they met Qi Huaijing in such an awkward situation, especially with Zhou Shuang standing next to him, they realized that the girlfriend of Brother Yu they were talking about was actually Qi Huaijing's wife.
This level of cognition is simply explosive.
"I just came to see Brother Xiaoyu and wanted to know if he was out of danger. I'm very sorry about what happened yesterday."
"You also know..."
A man rushed out, but before he could finish his words, he was dragged back by someone else. A big hand covered his mouth, preventing him from speaking any further.
My God, it’s not that they are unwilling to speak up for Brother Yu, but no one in Rongcheng dares to mess with Qi Huaijing.
"Let me go, what are you doing?"
After the man shouted a few words, he was held down by a group of people.
"Brother Yu broke a few ribs, but he's out of danger now and is fine. Thank you for coming to visit him."
A brother mustered up the courage to say this and looked at Zhou Shuang.
Qi Huaijing glanced at them and said nothing.
Zhou Shuang finally felt relieved when she heard that Fu Yu was fine. Her friends were staring at her like an enemy, and she felt it was not convenient to stay here.
"So you're married, huh? If you're married, just stay with your husband. Why are you trying to harm our Brother Yu? Although he's a bit of a playboy, at least the women he finds are all clean girls, not those who are already married. I think you should show some mercy."
This wrong word made Zhou Shuang feel confused. The relationship between her and Brother Xiaoyu was really just that pure past affection, without any other meaning. However, she also knew that Fu Yu's feelings for her were not limited to that of a brother and sister.
"There is no other relationship between my wife and Fu Yu. Please don't misunderstand me. If you continue to talk nonsense, I will find a lawyer to sue you."
Qi Huaijin looked at them with an unusually cold expression. Seeing his serious face, everyone fell silent.
No matter how dissatisfied they were, no one dared to say anything in front of Qi Huaijing.
After all, if you offend this ancestor, the entire family may disappear overnight.
After coming out of the hospital, he took a deep look at Fu Yu lying on the hospital bed. The cold light in his eyes scared everyone.
After getting in the car, the couple didn't say anything. Zhou Shuang fell into deep self-blame, and Qi Huaijing didn't bother her too much.
He'd checked with the hospital, and they'd found Fu Yu's injuries to be quite serious, particularly to his left leg and ribs. It was unclear whether he could fully recover after being out of danger, and there was a possibility he wouldn't be able to compete in racing again.
Of course, Qi Huaijing did not tell Zhou Shuang about this, for fear of causing her more worries. Besides, he didn't want her to care about any man other than himself, as he would be jealous.
When the two returned to the villa, Qi Huaijing's private plane had already landed on the lawn of the villa.
Several bodyguards in black were on high alert. Zhou Shuang simply packed his luggage and set off on the road back to Haicheng.
The plane flew thousands of kilometers in the air before it successfully brought the young couple to their old home in Haicheng.
Before leaving, Zhou Shuang had already called Lin Shu and told him that she would arrive today. Lin Shu brought Chen Yi and Chen Xuan out early to greet them.
The cabin of the plane opened and the stairs were lowered. Lin Shu saw Qi Huaijing following Zhou Shuang down, and his heart finally settled back into his chest.
Fortunately, they returned together. What Lin Shu feared most was seeing Zhou Shuang carrying her luggage alone, and then she would throw herself pitifully into her arms, saying that she never wanted to be with Qi Huaijing again.
Xu Fang would report to her every day about Zhou Shuang's itinerary and situation in Rongcheng.
Over the years, Zhou Shuang was the only one who thought she had escaped from everything in Haicheng. Little did she know that Lin Shu had been secretly sending people to protect her, and her every move would be presented in the form of a report on Lin Shu's desk.
No parent would be willing to let their beautiful daughter wander around alone, let alone a family like the Zhou family.
Even Qi Huaijing's proposal of marriage was decided after the Zhou family sent someone to investigate several generations of ancestors.
Therefore, all the seemingly natural fate is actually a deliberate human manipulation.
Lin Shu knew about what Qi Huaijing had done in Rongcheng and the conflict between them and Zhou Shuang, but she cleverly pretended to know nothing.
After seeing his daughter, Lin Shu glanced at Qi Huaijing indifferently and nodded slightly to him.
"It's good that you're back. Go see your great grandfather first. He misses you guys very much."
It has been so many years since Yu Linshu divorced Zhou Yanli, and Zhou Yanli has received the punishment he deserves for everything he has done, but it is impossible for Yu Linshu not to regret it.
It was not until later that she realized that Zhou Yanli really wanted to repay Wen Xin's kindness. As for whether there was a relationship between the two of them, she actually knew it, but as a wife, she could not tolerate her husband showing concern for any woman outside, even if it was to repay a favor.
Jealousy clouded her mind and sadness filled her heart. Lin Shu was still young at that time and could not tolerate many things.
As a result, her daughter was hurt and the family was broken up, and she herself could not escape responsibility.
As a mother, she should have a stronger heart to maintain the harmony of a family and take care of her children's physical and mental health, instead of immersing herself in these love affairs and thus ruining the happiness of several children's lives.
If you don’t love, please don’t hurt; if you don’t want to have children, please don’t enter into marriage.
Only young men and women are immersed in the joy of being alone together. As an adult, you have to shoulder more emotions and relationships from all aspects, not just limited to your own daughter's love affair.
By the time Lin Shu understood all this, it was too late. Zhou Shuang had been left with indelible psychological damage, a wound she would never be able to heal.
Qi Huaijing may be his daughter's salvation, but also an insurmountable psychological barrier in her growth process.
Lin Shu hopes that his daughter can calm down and grow on her own, instead of interfering in the couple's relationship. No matter what the final outcome between them is, it is their own choice.
She could only continue to support them while feeling sorry for her daughter.
Hearing the name of great-grandfather, Zhou Shuang couldn't wait to walk in, and Qi Huaijing followed her.
Great-grandfather has been discharged from the hospital. The news from Lin Shu is that there is nothing serious. However, great-grandfather is old and cannot withstand the stress. He has been to the hospital several times.
When Zhou Shuang saw her great-grandfather, he was sitting in a recliner. Fortunately, the weather in Haicheng was much warmer than in Rongcheng.
People in Rongcheng still have to wear thick sweaters, but in Haicheng they can wear short sleeves.
It can be seen that the servants in the family took good care of my great-grandfather. He was wearing a Yuanbao shirt and looked clean and refreshed.
"Master, the young lady is back..."
Seeing Zhou Shuang, the housekeeper reminded him. Old Master Zhou slowly opened his eyes and saw Zhou Shuang standing in front of him.
“Shuangshuang…”
Grandpa Zhou called out the name of his beloved great-granddaughter and stretched out his hand.
Zhou Shuang hurried forward and grabbed the old man's hand.
"Grandpa, I'm back. Huaijing came with me to see you. Are you okay?"
It was obvious that Mr. Zhou's health had deteriorated. His cheeks, once somewhat plump, were now deeply sunken, and he seemed less energetic when he spoke.
"Shuangshuang is back. She's in high spirits after seeing your great-grandfather. What could possibly happen to him? I have enough strength to kill a tiger."
The old man coughed violently just after he finished speaking. Zhou Shuang immediately went to help him up, and the servants beside him hurriedly handed him water and massaged his back.
"Grandpa, look at you, you're out of breath, yet you still say you're fine."
Zhou Shuang's tears burst out instantly. She was so ignorant. Fortunately, she did not impulsively tell her mother that she wanted a divorce last time, otherwise her great-grandfather would be so disappointed.
Old Master Zhou waved his hand, looked at Zhou Shuang with a loving expression, and then looked at Qi Huaijing with satisfaction in his eyes.
"That's what happens when you get older. Everyone has this day. There's no need to feel sad for Great Grandpa. Besides, isn't he still here?"
The more he comforted Zhou Shuang, the more she cried. Qi Huaijing gently put his arm around her shoulders. Zhou Shuang instinctively wanted to break free, but her great-grandfather was here. If she did that, he would definitely notice something.
"Your wedding will be held soon. Before that, go to the hospital to see your father-in-law."
The old man suppressed his grief, and during this period, no one dared to mention Zhou Yanli in front of him.
"yes…"
The old man's words were addressed to Qi Huaijing, and Qi Huaijing's answer of "yes" instead of "okay" showed the highest respect to the old man.
The old man was very satisfied with Qi Huaijing's respectful attitude, which treated himself as a junior. It was as if he saw the respectful look of his grandson in front of him many years ago.
Zhou Shuang leaned quietly in Qi Huaijing's arms, trying hard to act affectionate in front of the old man.
"I'll take Shuangshuang there now."
Qi Huaijing kept his word. The old man patted Zhou Shuang's hand gently, his eyes full of love.
"Go, let your daddy see that his favorite daughter has really grown up."
The old man watched Zhou Shuang and Qi Huaijing walk out of the door together, and closed his eyes gently.
A tear silently slid down from the corner of his wrinkled eye.
If he had any wish before he died, it was to see Zhou Yanli wake up.
