On the phone, Lu Jingcheng's voice was polite, well-behaved and polite. Xu Nian was taken aback for a moment, how could Xu Rongsheng live with Lu Jingcheng? She obviously visited Xu Rongsheng not long ago. Isn't Xu Rongsheng living in his own villa and being taken care of by a nanny
"Nianyi, are you listening?" Seeing that Xu Nianyi hadn't responded for a long time, the other party continued, "I know you don't remember the past, but no matter how you look at it, Xu Rongsheng is indeed your biological father. Your mother has passed away, and Xu Rongsheng is the only relative of yours in this world. No matter what Xu Rongsheng has done before, he has now received his due retribution. You saw it last time, he is now doing it every day Paralyzed in a wheelchair, he has to be taken care of for food and water, he is no longer the mayor who calls the wind and rain, but an old man in his dying years."
"..." Xu Nianyi pinched the phone and didn't speak for a while.
Lu Jingcheng continued on the phone: "If a person is sitting in a wheelchair and can't speak and can't take care of himself, he won't have much joy in living. To put it bluntly, I don't know how many years your father can live. He Now I have to let the nanny take out your photo to look at it every day, and sometimes shed tears. Even if I am not his relative, I just look at it as a bystander, and I feel sorry for him. That's why I called you. "
"He is now..." Hearing this, Xu Nianyi finally spoke. From Lu Jingcheng's words, she could already imagine Xu Rongsheng's weak and sad appearance.
She didn't remember what happened before, and she didn't make it clear why her mother committed suicide and why she left Xu Rongsheng, but the last time she saw Xu Rongsheng being treated like that by that fierce nanny in that empty villa, she also felt in her heart. Very uncomfortable.
Maybe it was because of sympathy, she felt that Xu Rongsheng was really pitiful now.
"Is he very weak now?" After sorting out his emotions, Xu Nianyi was able to ask this sentence,
"It's very weak. Maybe you haven't read the newspaper and you don't know what happened a few days ago." Lu Jingcheng continued on the phone.
Xu Nianyi's expression changed greatly: "What did you say, such a thing would happen? If you didn't find out, then Xu Rongsheng would have had a big accident? Where is your home, I'll go and have a look."
"Okay." Lu Jingcheng reported his home address.
*
Xu Nianyi drove there by himself, and when he left, he only told the nanny to go to a restaurant to meet a friend, and asked the nanny to take good care of Shao Yifeng.
Driving out along the highway, due to traffic congestion in big cities, it is catching up with the rush hour for work, and there are especially many cars on the road. The usual 40-minute drive is stuck on the road for more than an hour before arriving.
After seeing Lu Jingcheng, Lu Jingcheng took Xu Nianyi into the villa.
Xu Nianyi has been to this villa before.
Last time, because she was curious about her past and wanted to ask about many things, she took the initiative to find Lu Jingcheng and came to this villa under Lu Jingcheng's guidance.
According to Lu Jingcheng, this villa was the new house when she and Lu Jingcheng got married, and it was the newest villa area back then, but now more than four years have passed, and this villa area is no longer brand new.
The villa is not big, with two and a half floors and an attic. The furnishings in the house are the same as when she came last time, without any changes.
There was also a large wedding photo hanging on the wall. Under the blue sky and white clouds, she was wearing a white wedding dress standing in a purple lavender garden, embracing Lu Jingcheng who was wearing a white suit. The sleeves of the clothes fluttered, and the trailing white gauze fluttered in mid-air.
In the photo, the smile on her face is still dazzling. It can be seen that when he married Lu Jingcheng, he was really happy.
Xu Nian glanced at this wedding photo, then turned his head and looked at Lu Jingcheng who was standing beside him: "Mr. Lu, where is Xu Rongsheng?"
"He's on the balcony on the second floor, and the nanny is taking him to bask in the sun. It's not good to stay indoors all the time. It's also not good for your father's recovery." Lu Jingcheng added, "Wait for Mr. Xu's health to improve, we will I will take him downstairs. Get in touch with the outside world more, and his spirit will be much better."
After finishing speaking, Lu Jingcheng turned around and walked towards the spiral staircase, "This way please."
"Thank you." Xu Nian glanced at him and simply thanked him.
Followed to the balcony on the second floor, from a distance, Xu Rongsheng was sitting in a wheelchair, basking in the sun facing the sun. The nanny was standing beside him, holding a city morning newspaper in her hand, and was reading the morning newspaper to him.
Xu Nianyi slowed down his pace, and walked gently behind Xu Rongsheng. Only when he got closer did he see clearly that Xu Rongsheng was no longer 'sitting' in a wheelchair, but now he was simply 'shrinking' in a wheelchair.
She also met Xu Rongsheng in Ji Siyu's manor in Malaysia. She clearly remembered how high-spirited and high-spirited Xu Rongsheng would be.
But now...
Xu Nianyi opened his eyes wide and looked at Xu Rongsheng's profile in surprise. He is completely different from what he was then, not even as good as the last time she saw him in Xu's villa.
At the very least, Xu Rongsheng could still sit in a wheelchair at that time, but now, as if his tendons had been pulled out, his body fell limply in the wheelchair, his back leaning on the wheelchair behind him, and he was completely paralyzed in the wheelchair .
Xu Rongsheng was still very energetic last time, but this time, she had stood beside Xu Rongsheng for so long, Xu Rongsheng didn't notice it, he was looking forward like a dementia, listening to the nanny reading the news in the newspaper.
Lu Jingcheng had also walked over at this moment, standing beside Xu Nianyi.
Seeing Lu Jingcheng approaching, the nanny immediately stopped, put the newspaper down, and waited for Lu Jingcheng's order.
Lu Jingcheng waved to the female nanny, signaling to back off.
The female nanny exited the balcony very politely, and there was no sound of newspaper reading. Only then did Xu Rongsheng, who was slumped in a wheelchair, reacted. He tilted his head and looked in the direction where the nanny was standing, but unexpectedly saw Xu Nianyi figure.
"Ah, read... read..."
When Xu Rongsheng saw Xu Nianyi, his dull eyes immediately filled with light, he opened his mouth with great effort, raised his hand tremblingly, as if he had used a lot of strength, pointed at Xu Nianyi, excitedly Keep saying, "Read, read..."
"I..." Xu Nian hesitated to speak, she didn't know how to address Xu Rongsheng.
Accompanied by Secretary Li last time, she went to visit Xu Rongsheng, but she didn't say anything to Xu Rongsheng. Many of the words were echoed by Secretary Li helping the Circus. Because of the presence of the fierce nanny, it was not convenient for her to talk to Xu Rongsheng, so she just watched the album for a while and then left.
This time, when she saw Xu Rongsheng, she didn't know how to address him.
Should he be called Mayor Xu like Secretary Li, or Mr. Xu? But in terms of blood relationship, they are father and daughter. Although she has no memory of the past now, it is true.
Shao Jun also told her personally that Xu Rongsheng was her father.
Now... should she call Xu Rongsheng 'Daddy'
While she was hesitating, Lu Jingcheng, who was standing by the side, said, "Nian Yi, your father's spirit is not very good now, the nanny gave him a lot of illegal drugs when he was taking care of him, and those drugs stimulate the brain nerves. , It will cause irreversible damage to the nerves. I took him to the hospital for a physical examination. The doctor said that his current physical condition is very poor. The special treatment can be cured. But the most serious ones are those medicines, those medicines given to him by the nanny have ruined his spirit, and now he will never be able to return to the way he was before."
"You mean, he will always be paralyzed in the wheelchair?" Xu Nianyi's heart was extremely heavy, and his clear voice became deep and deep.
"Yes. He can remember the past now. The doctor said it was a miracle." Lu Jingcheng raised his phoenix eyes and looked at Xu Rongsheng with pity flashing in his eyes, "Look, he remembers when you came. , he is very happy to see you. The doctor said that he can't have a cerebral thrombosis operation right now. He is too weak and needs to recuperate for a while. He can't accept any stimulation. I hope you can call him Dad. I think the old man will definitely Very happy."
Xu Nianyi hesitated for a moment, but decided to follow what Lu Jingcheng said.
She met Xu Rongsheng's shining eyes, and slowly said, "Dad..."
Xu Rongsheng, who was sitting in a wheelchair, nodded sharply: "Read, read one." His articulation was a little unclear, and the word 'one' was a little unclear.
It could be seen that Xu Rongsheng was very happy, looking at Xu Nianyi still nodding, "Read, read."
"I came to see you today. I just found out today that the nanny treated you badly." Xu Nianyi originally wanted to say 'poison', but Lu Jingcheng reminded her not to let Xu Rongsheng accept stimulation, and the words came The mouth changed temporarily, "If I knew this was the case, I should have found a way to change a nanny for you last time."
"I'm also to blame for this matter. You don't remember the past now. As Mr. Xu's former son-in-law, I am his guardian from a legal point of view. There is my responsibility for this. I did not take care of it properly."
Xu Nian stepped forward and took two steps, then squatted down slowly next to the wheelchair, "Dad, let me say a few words to this Mr. Lu first, I won't leave, I will come over later, I will be there Here with you for a while, okay?"
Xu Rongsheng didn't speak, his mouth was slightly opened, transparent saliva flowed down the corner of Xu Rongsheng's mouth, and dripped on the front of his clothes.
"I won't leave, I'll come back to see you soon." Xu Nianyi picked up the handkerchief beside the armrest of the chair and wiped it for Xu Rongsheng before leaving the balcony.
Lu Jingcheng followed and walked over, "What do you want to say to me? Read one."
"I want to say that I am very grateful that you have been taking care of Mr. Xu recently. I don't believe that a nanny would feed him that kind of poisonous and harmful medicine for no reason. Someone instructed behind this. You confronted the nanny, and the nanny revealed Who is behind the scenes?" Xu Nian frowned slightly, and said solemnly, "And I want to tell you... I want to pick him up in a few days and I'll take care of him, is that okay?"
