Zeng Qi drove the car behind the middle-aged man, slowly rolled down the window, and called softly: "Mr. Xie."
His voice was hoarse due to lack of moisture, but to Xie Peisheng's ears it sounded like a debt collector, causing his face to change instantly.
But Xie Peisheng quickly restrained his leaked emotions, turned around and said to Zeng Qi with a straight face:
"Yesterday I submitted my resignation to the board of directors. I cannot bear the honorific title of Mr. Zeng."
After saying that, he ignored Zeng Qi and started warming up again.
Zeng Qi was not angry when he saw this, and only uttered three words gently.
Xie Peisheng's departure stopped abruptly after hearing what the other party said. The mask of aloofness that he had always maintained on his face was torn.
"You..." He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end nothing came out.
Zeng Qi smiled slightly and said to him: "Get in the car and take you somewhere."
…
In a luxurious ward of a private hospital in City C.
Zheng Muyue stood alone by Zheng Qihua's bed, with a faint worry in her eyes.
Zheng Qihua's other two sons live abroad. Although they were notified, they had not had time to come back.
Therefore, the only people guarding the bedside were people from Zheng Huo's room.
Zheng Muyue, who had been protected in the greenhouse, encountered such a change.
She didn't sleep all night last night, her eyes were heavily bruised, and she looked listless.
Soon after, Zheng Qihua opened his eyes on the bed and uttered syllables with unknown meaning.
Zheng Muyue woke up immediately, jumped up from the chair, and greeted him: "Grandpa, are you awake? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Zheng Qihua looked very excited and wanted to say something.
Unfortunately, the ventilator was on his mouth and he couldn't speak a complete sentence at all.
"Grandpa, don't move yet, I'll call the doctor." Zheng Muyue said, pressing the call bell on the bedside.
Soon, doctors and nurses who heard the prompt rushed over.
After a routine examination, the doctor told her that Zheng Qihua's body was fine, but she could no longer be stimulated and needed to rest for a while.
After the doctor left, Zheng Muyue informed her mother and Zheng family of the news.
The hospital's nutritionist also sent Zheng Qihua a nutritious meal specially prepared for him.
After the nurse had finished serving him, Zheng Qihua asked Zheng Muyue to find the Zheng family's exclusive lawyer.
"...Old man, we can start from the points I just mentioned for Mr. Zheng's case..."
As soon as Dong Fengying, who had hurriedly arrived, entered the door, she heard Lawyer Song, who had already prepared himself, describing the countermeasures he had come up with to Zheng Qihua.
She didn't dare to say anything, so she quietly asked Zheng Muyue to go out and ask how the situation was.
Zheng Muyue told the doctor truthfully, and Dong Fengying's heart dropped.
As for whether she was worried about Zheng Qihua's health or whether she would help her husband and son after Zheng Qihua woke up, only she knew.
At this time, Zheng Muyue turned around and looked into the room: "Grandpa's infusion bottle is almost finished."
As she said that, she wanted to go to the nurse to change the sling bottle.
"I'll go." Dong Fengying stopped her. "You stayed up all night, go back and get some sleep first."
"I'm not sleepy." After Zheng Muyue said that, she walked directly to the nurse's station.
Seeing him like this, Dong Fengying didn't stop him anymore and sat directly on the seat outside the house to rest.
She also ran here just now, and now she feels very tired.
However, she just sat down. A slightly surprised voice rang.
"Fengying?"
A pair of feet wearing sneakers suddenly appeared in front of her. She looked around and saw a familiar face.
"It's really you." Xie Peisheng's face was full of surprise. After Zeng Qi brought him here, he disappeared.
Just when he was wondering, he saw a person who should have been hidden deep in his memory.
"You are so much more beautiful than before. I almost didn't recognize you just now."
Seeing her, Xie Peisheng, who had always been serious about words and expressions, actually gave her a rare compliment.
Dong Fengying was also very excited, but the excitement was not like seeing an old friend reunited, but rather like being very scared.
She stood up and said in panic: "You...why are you here..."
She said, taking another sneak peek into the room. Zheng Qihua was discussing important matters with Lawyer Song with a serious face and did not notice anything strange here.
Dong Fengying felt relieved and immediately pulled the other party towards the corridor aside.
"You come with me..."
"Fengying, what are you doing..."
At this time, Zheng Muyue, who had returned with the nurse, noticed with sharp eyes that Dong Fengying was pulling a man and hiding in the stairwell.
Her heart immediately beat wildly, and a terrible thought came to her mind.
"Miss Zheng...what are you looking at? Why don't you speak?"
Seeing that the other party did not respond for a long time, the little nurse quickly called out.
Only then did Zheng Muyue react: "It's nothing. You go and change my grandfather's dressing first." After saying that, she made up her mind and walked in the direction where the two people left.
staircase.
Xie Peisheng pulled her in confusion: "Fengying, why do you feel like you are seeing a ghost when you see me? Am I that scary?"
Dong Fengying's delicately painted face was filled with anger: "What are you doing here? Don't you know that Zheng Huo has been arrested? What happened back then will be exposed. If you come here now, aren't you throwing yourself into a trap?"
"Zheng Huo was arrested?" Xie Peisheng asked in surprise. "When and why, I don't know."
"You know now, then leave quickly." Dong Fengying said with a straight face and wanted to leave.
Xie Peisheng immediately pulled her back: "Don't worry, since Zheng Huo has been arrested, divorce him. You go abroad with me."
"No." Dong Fengying decisively refused.
"Why? Now that I have money, I can help you live a good life."
"Shut up."
A sharp female voice rang out, and the two people at the stairs were stunned and looked at the place where the sound came from in horror.
Two seconds later, an angry Zheng Muyue walked out from behind the wall.
"Yue'er, why are you here?" Dong Fengying was startled, and then she immediately shook off Xie Peisheng's hand as if she had been electrocuted.
When Xie Peisheng saw the visitor, he was extremely happy: "Mu Yue, you came just in time, come here and help me persuade your mother."
Zheng Muyue glanced at him hatefully and ignored him.
She took a few steps forward and walked in front of Dong Fengying. With tears in her beautiful eyes, she was filled with grief: "Mom, if you do this, have you ever considered my and dad's feelings?"
Confronted by her daughter on the spot, Dong Fengying said helplessly: "I...I had no choice at the time. It was really a helpless move."
After saying that, she seemed to have been greatly wronged, her eyes were filled with water and she was filled with sadness.
Seeing that the other party still looked unrepentant, Zheng Muyue sneered, not intending to continue to cover up the scandal for her: "There is no way? If you really have no way, you won't be enjoying the aura of Mrs. Zheng's family. At the same time, he cheated on me behind my father’s back and gave birth to me.”
Hearing her say this, Dong Fengying opened her mouth wide, and the tears that had not fallen in her eyes were replaced by surprise: "Yue'er, what are you talking about? When did I cheat."
"You still want to lie to me." Zheng Muyue roared in pain, and she pointed at Xie Peisheng, who was also shocked. "Do you dare to say that I am not his daughter?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Dong Fengying's delicate eyebrows knitted together, she pulled Zheng Muyue's finger down and said angrily.
"He is your biological uncle."
