"Nian Yi, I know you feel very uncomfortable seeing Mr. Xu like this, and want to take him away. But I have to say, you can't take him away now." Lu Jingcheng's handsome face showed some helplessness. "Why?" Xu Nianyi looked at him puzzled.
"Because I'm his legal guardian now. Although I'm not your husband anymore, I was married to you once. As his former son-in-law, I still have legal support obligations with him." Lu Jingcheng doesn't matter. He explained unhurriedly, "His wife is dead now, and his youngest daughter has long been found dead by the police, and you have also been recorded in the missing persons list. Now I am the only one who can support him, which is stipulated by law .”
"... What do you mean?" Xu Nianyi frowned, "You let me see him, but you didn't let me take him away?"
"It's not that I won't let you take him away. Think about your current situation. Are you suitable for taking him away? Have you really taken care of him?" Lu Jingcheng's phoenix eyes looked straight at her, full of tears. Sincerely: "You are now coming back as the adopted daughter of the Rosefield family. You are a Chinese-American, not the daughter of the mayor of Huaxia Xu. The court will not allow you to take him away as an outsider. And the situation in your family is not suitable. Mr. Xu is recuperating. Your son is still young, and he also needs your care. If your father also passes away, you will be even more at a loss. Are you really confident that you can take care of him?"
"I..." Xu Nian's frowning brows were smoothed immediately, and he froze for a moment, thinking about Lu Jingcheng's words.
What Lu Jingcheng said is not wrong, she really needs to take care of Yifeng now, Yifeng's health is not good, his spine is slightly deformed, his spinal repair surgery has not been completely completed, the doctor said that he will have to wait until Yifeng is 3 years old. Do it again. She usually spends a lot of energy taking care of Yifeng, and Xu Rongsheng is also in poor health. Does she really have so much energy to take care of two people who are not in good health
No matter how attentive the nanny was, it was only temporary, and the last nanny even fed Xu Rongsheng illegal drugs, so she doesn't trust the nanny's care now.
These are not the key, the key is will Shao Jun agree
She now only has sympathy and pity for Xu Rongsheng, without any feeling of family affection. She didn't hate Xu Rongsheng because she didn't know anything about the past, but Shao Jun didn't forget that he had a good opinion of Xu Rongsheng.
Now Shao Jun is urgently investigating Wei Shaokai's matter, she doesn't want Shao Jun to be distracted by Xu Rongsheng anymore.
After thinking for a while, Xu Nianyi let go: "I don't need to pick up Xu Rongsheng, but... I want to come and see him often."
"Of course, you are his daughter, and he wants to see you very much now, as long as you are free, you can come and see him anytime." Lu Jingcheng's thin lips curled up, and a gentle smile appeared on his face, "Nian Yi , We did have some unhappiness in the past, but that has passed. I know you have a child now, and I will not disturb your happy life. But I hope we can not be enemies. Even if we are not familiar friends, And at least they have a connection with each other."
"I can't remember anything from the past. I don't remember. Since you want to be ordinary friends with me, please take care of Xu Rongsheng instead of me. I will thank you very much." For the man with a gentle smile in front of him, For some reason, Xu Nianyi couldn't really get close to him, and could only smile reluctantly, "Thank you for telling me about Xu Rongsheng."
"By the way, you just asked me if I found out who ordered the nanny, unfortunately, no." Lu Jingcheng put away the smile on the corner of his mouth, and shook his head helplessly, "When I visited your father at his house that day, , picked up the medicine bottle and looked at it, but the nanny snatched it from me with a panicked face, and tried to attack me after I found out that something was wrong. I accidentally pushed her when I was defending, and she died on the spot Yes. I reported this matter to the police at that time, and the police concluded that I was too defensive. Although they did not pursue my case, the clues from the nanny were cut off. "
"Since this is the case, there is no other way." Xu Nianyi didn't press on, but changed the subject, "I want to accompany Xu Rongsheng for a while, can I leave later?"
"Okay." Lu Jingcheng nodded gentlemanly, "You can stay with Mr. Xu for as long as you want, I'll wait for you downstairs."
After Lu Jingcheng left, Xu Nianyi returned to the balcony. At this time, the light outside the balcony was much brighter and warmer than before. The faint morning light has turned into a warm golden light, shining on this coastal city.
Seeing Xu Nianyi's reappearance, Xu Rongsheng in the wheelchair looked very happy, struggling to pull the corners of his mouth, and drew a very ugly smile on his face.
Xu Nianyi found a chair with a backrest, moved it to the balcony, and sat down side by side with Xu Rongsheng.
Fortunately, the nanny took good care of him. Although Xu Rongsheng slumped on the chair and liked to deduct taxes, but fortunately his clothes were clean, and there was no peculiar smell on his body except for a small pool of saliva on his chest.
Xu Nianyi picked up the morning newspaper that the nanny hadn't finished reading just now, found the place where the nanny had just read, and continued reading.
Xu Rongsheng listened carefully, his eyes were fixed on Xu Nianyi, and he never left for a moment.
Xu Nianyi read the text in the newspaper, and read softly: "Some experts say that China has entered an aging society. Due to various reasons such as the past birth policy, the fast-paced society and the high pressure of life, more and more people Young people are facing difficulties in getting married and having children. The population ratio is out of balance, and the aging population has further increased the pressure on young people's lives. Many old people are facing serious problems such as being old and having nothing to support. Relevant departments are adjusting the pension Policies to protect the lives of the elderly, medical care and other issues... ”
As soon as Xu Nian read this, he couldn't help but pause.
There is nothing to support the old, nothing to support the old.
This is probably the most dreaded question faced by all elderly people.
In Ji Siyu's manor in Malaysia, at Gao Xuehan's wedding ceremony, she saw how high-spirited Xu Rongsheng was, but in less than half a year, the mayor, who was full of energy, became what he is now. At the age of sixty, he is already like an old man at the end of his life.
Even she can't accept such a comparison before and after. Can Xu Rongsheng, who once held a lot of power, accept it
Now he can't speak, and his body has become like this.
I am afraid that the most painful thing for Xu Rongsheng now is not the physical problem, but the contrast with his own situation.
For Xu Rongsheng, she really didn't have any impression in her mind.
Even her mother, Jiang Xiangru, still has such an image in her brain, at least she can still dream of Jiang Xiangru in her dreams.
But Xu Rongsheng, she has no memory, let alone dreamed about him.
She guessed that it was probably because she was completely disappointed in Xu Rongsheng before, and she no longer regarded Xu Rongsheng as her father, so she had no place for Xu Rongsheng in her heart, so she had no impression of Xu Rongsheng.
But no matter how you say it, it is a fact that Xu Rongsheng's blood is flowing in her body.
Now Xu Rongsheng has been reduced to this state, he doesn't even have a relative by his side, he doesn't have a reliable person, even a nanny can bully him, even give him poison!
She looked at Xu Rongsheng really pitifully, especially when Xu Rongsheng saw himself struggling to open his mouth as if he saw the hope of his life, trying to smile at her and talk to her, she felt sad when she saw it. There is really no way to ignore it.
The questions raised by Lu Jingcheng do exist, she needs time, and when Shao Jun is done with Wei Shaokai's affairs, maybe she can try to talk to Shao Jun and ask him to find a way to change Xu Rongsheng's guardian to herself.
*
three days later.
In a high-end apartment that Wen Xiangqian bought, Wen Xiangqing was sitting in a hanging chair in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the city.
Wen Xiangqian came back from the company, took Wen Xiangqing's favorite mousse cake, walked into the living room of the apartment, and put the cake beside Wen Xiangqing: "Ah Qing, I bought you a cake when I came back. I remember when you were young I like eating the most."
"Yes." Wen Xiangqing turned her head, looked at Wen Qianqian, parted the corner of her mouth and thanked softly: "Thank you, brother."
"Is there any news from Yan Kuan? You told me last time that you want to be with Yan Kuan. I have already formally discussed this matter with him. After all, it is your girl, and my elder brother must take care of you in this matter." He said that he was going to arrange an engagement time and would call you soon." Wen Xiangqian walked up to Wen Xiangqing and asked in a low voice.
"Not yet, but I think it should be soon. Engagement also needs to arrange a suitable time and send out invitations. Ah Kuan should be making preparations." Even though Wen Xiangqing's face was powdered, it still looked a little pale.
"Did you take your medicine on time?" Seeing that his sister's face was not looking well, Wen Xiangqian was a little worried. Since Xiang Bei disappeared and left the hotel, he never saw Xiang Bei again, and Ah Qing became even more reticent. In the past, Ah Qing was just obedient, but never silent, but now she always sits there blankly, as if full of thoughts.
"I've eaten. After I get married with Ah Kuan, I plan to go back to the United States for a while, and the heart valve may have to be replaced." Wen Xiangqing smiled weakly, "Brother, don't worry about me, what about the cooperation with Baoli Group How is it? Has there been any progress?"
"Baoli Group wants to see our strength, so I plan to open a group branch in Xiahai City, which will be more convenient."
"En." Wen Xiangqing nodded.
Wen Xiangqian still had something to say, but before he could open his mouth, Wen Xiangqing's cell phone on the coffee table rang.
Wen Qiang strode forward and picked up the phone to see that it was Yan Kuan calling.
"Ah Qing, it's Yan Kuan's call." As he spoke, Wen Qianqian handed over the phone.
Wen Xiangqing answered the phone and pressed the answer button: "Ah Kuan, how is the matter? Is our engagement date arranged?"
"What do you think?" Yan Kuan asked with a chuckle on the phone.
