Chapter 111 Do you have someone you like and are avoiding him?
"Doctor, where is my grandma?" Shen Chaoxi stopped the doctor and asked.
The doctor was wearing a sterile suit, with only a pair of eyes hidden under gold-rimmed glasses between his hat and mask. He looked Shen Chaoxi up and down, and then said, "The old man is old, and he has a heart attack due to anger, plus cardiovascular disease. He is out of danger for the time being, but he needs to be sent to the intensive care unit for a few days of observation."
Coincidentally, Yao Chun and Zhong Hongguang also hurried over.
"Jiangchuan, how is my mother-in-law?"
Zhong Hongguang called the doctor and found out that they were acquaintances.
Doctor Shen Chaoxi looked over. She didn't expect that this person would be the one participating in the rescue.
Given Shang Jiangchuan's current position in the hospital, it is unlikely that he would go out to see patients at night unless there is a major accident.
Thinking of this, Shen Chaoxi suddenly remembered Shang Jianghan's instructions before going out.
"Drive slowly, I'll take care of the arrangements at the hospital."
Shang Jiangchuan took off his mask, bowed to Zhong Hongguang, called him "Uncle Zhong," and then repeated what he had just said, trying to be as detailed as possible.
"Well, go ahead and get busy!" Zhong Hongguang thanked him.
After Shang Jiangchuan entered the emergency room, Zhong Hongguang turned around and said a few words of comfort to Yao Chun and his family.
In front of Zhong Hongguang, Zheng Juanjuan did not mention what the troublemakers said about Yao Chun's past. Instead, she simply said that someone was slandering Shen Chaoxi and her grandmother was very angry.
"Your eldest brother's company organized a trip, and I called him. He had to change buses and would not be back until tomorrow. I panicked when Mom vomited blood, and Xiaoshu had a stomachache, so I called all of you... It was my fault for not taking good care of Mom and letting her hear gossip she shouldn't have heard!"
Zheng Juanjuan felt extremely guilty and said this while wiping away her tears.
"Sister-in-law, it's none of your business. Mom has relied on you all these years. I am grateful to you from the bottom of my heart!" Yao Chun was quite moved.
The aunt and sister-in-law shed tears for a while, while Zhong Hongguang went aside to call a doctor he knew abroad to consult about his condition.
At three o'clock in the morning, grandma woke up in the emergency room, and the first thing she said was that she wanted to see Shen Chaoxi.
Shen Chaoxi was disinfected, put on sterile clothes and entered the emergency room.
The cold white emergency room, the icy white hard bed, my grandmother was lying on it, covered with a white sheet, with all kinds of monitoring equipment around her.
After two months of care, the old man, who had a ruddy complexion, was now lying quietly on the bed, his eyes sunken and his face pale, as if all his energy had been drained away overnight.
Shen Chaoxi took light steps and gradually approached.
"coming?"
As if she had noticed something, grandma opened her eyes and looked at Shen Chaoxi. She forced a smile on her face, but her voice was weak.
Shen Chaoxi walked forward, sat beside the bed, and held his grandmother's hand.
"You should have a good rest. The doctor said you are fine. You just need to take some rest."
Shen Chaoxi's eyes were hot. She suppressed her shyness with a smile, but her tears kept falling.
Although she is not the real Shen Chaoxi, she still retains the feelings of that person in her heart, so over the years she has been willing to integrate herself into this family that has been kind to her in every way.
Grandma blinked her wrinkled eyelids.
"I know my own body very well. I won't leave until your brother's child is born and Xixi gets married!"
"Come, come closer to grandma, I have something to tell you."
Maybe it was the effect of the medicine, although grandma looked pale, she was in much better spirits at this time.
Shen Chaoxi found a stool and sat next to her, lowering his head almost touching the old woman's face.
This way, grandma doesn't have to speak so loudly.
"Your mother dated her teacher when she was in college, and they had a child together. Unfortunately, your mother was too young and accidentally aborted the child."
It wasn't that he wasn't shocked. When Shen Chaoxi heard Zheng Juanjuan say "your mother got pregnant before marriage", he already had doubts in his heart.
Those people come to cause trouble in order to retaliate and provoke their families, but they may not make things up out of nothing.
Grandma continued, "Later, due to some misunderstandings, she separated from the teacher, and your father Shen Daguang walked into her life at that time. A woman with an empty heart will inevitably be tempted by the outside world. Your mother was too confused at the time and blamed me for not stopping her in time. After your mother came back, I quietly asked her what was going on between her and Shen Daguang," Grandma paused and looked at Shen Chaoxi.
Shen Chaoxi understood what she meant. Perhaps he was still concerned about the blood relationship between him and Shen Daguang.
Shen Chaoxi shook his head: "I have nothing to do with him, we are just strangers!"
She took a stand.
There was a hint of relief in grandma's eyes.
"Your mother said that she never loved Shen Daguang, so Shen Daguang cheated on her and your mother was relieved, but you have suffered in the past few years."
In this case, Shen Chaoxi had some feeling without her grandmother saying anything. She was not without memory of what happened to her in the past.
Since she was destined to live for Shen Chaoxi, she should not mourn for the deceased.
Thinking about what happened tonight, Shen Chaoxi guessed that her grandmother didn't call her in just to talk about Yao Chun's past, Shen Chaoxi said softly.
"My mother is doing well now. Uncle Zhong treats her well. She has brothers and sisters now. Grandma, please don't mention the past anymore."
"Well, I won't mention it anymore, but there is one thing you may not know. Your Uncle Zhong is your mother's former teacher."
Hearing this, Shen Chaoxi was no less shocked than before.
What kind of fate is this?
Zhong Hongguang had never been married and his family was well-off, so why would he marry a divorced woman with children? Only now did she have the answer.
However, before Shen Chaoxi could recover from her shock, her hand was grabbed by her grandmother.
The old man's hands were dry and had deep lines on them. They were soft and weak, and their temperature was cool.
Shen Chaoxi came back to his senses and leaned his head forward.
"Xixi, why did you deliberately fail the exam five years ago? Why did you go to Xiangda University when you were supposed to be studying abroad?"
My grandmother was not indifferent to what those people said at night.
There was a layer of mist in Shen Chaoxi's eyes. She clenched her lips to prevent herself from being overwhelmed by the overwhelming thoughts.
"Do you have someone you like and are avoiding him?"
Although she is old, every word my grandmother says hits the nail on the head.
Shen Chaoxi was silent for a moment and then nodded.
"I believe my child will not do anything to destroy other people's feelings, right?" There was a hint of temptation in her words, and her grandmother's cloudy eyes stared at her without blinking.
Shen Chaoxi felt the dry fingers holding him gradually tightened, with a slight tremor.
This time she didn't hesitate, her eyes were clear, and she nodded.
"I didn't, don't worry, grandma!"
Grandma breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had put down a heavy burden.
"Last night, those people said those things to you. Grandma was worried that you might be confused for a moment, but then I thought about it and realized that I should have trusted you. It was grandma who was too anxious and made you worry."
So, grandma vomited blood not because she was angry, but more because she was worried about herself.
Shen Chaoxi couldn't help feeling guilty.
Seeing the fatigue on his grandmother's face, Shen Chaoxi tucked the corner of the quilt for her.
"Grandma, take a rest. I'll keep an eye on you."
Grandma had closed her eyes, then opened them again and smiled at Shen Chaoxi.
"You don't have to watch over me, it's your mother and your uncle's responsibility to take care of me.
Listen to grandma, don't miss the person you like because of being timid and hesitant, good child, go ahead!"
