At 11:30 in the morning, special care ward of a private hospital.
Mr. Nie was transferred from the intensive care unit to the special care unit. He is out of danger, but he still shows no signs of waking up.
Aunt Mei and Housekeeper Wei were always on guard in the ward, especially Aunt Mei, whose eyes were red.
However, she was dressed very elegantly and put on light makeup carefully. She said that Mr. Nie might feel better if he woke up and saw that she was dressed in festive and exquisite clothes.
Nie Canghao finally took An Ran into the ward to visit his grandfather. Housekeeper Wei's expression was a little complicated, while Aunt Mei happily held An Ran's hand and asked questions.
"I said how can we hold grudges between our ancestors and grandsons, and sure enough, they came anyway." Aunt Mei pulled An Ran and spoke to Nie Canghao with a smile. "What the old man misses the most is you. If you come, I guarantee that he will be able to do it soon."
Wake up."
Nie Canghao stared at the unconscious Mr. Nie silently, seemingly not hearing Aunt Mei's words.
Aunt Mei turned her attention to An Ran again, looked it over, and asked softly: "Why aren't you wearing the jade bracelet I gave you last time?"
An Ran was a little apologetic and explained: "I came in a hurry. I must remember to wear it next time."
"It doesn't matter, as long as you are still thinking about me, I'll be satisfied." Aunt Mei said as she took off a red gold silk bracelet from her wrist and put it on An Ran's Hao wrist.
"Aunt Mei can't..." An Ran declined quickly. "How can I accept your precious gifts one after another?"
"They're just common things. If you don't dislike them, it's my honor to be their creation." Aunt Mei looked at An Ran with pleading eyes, "Good boy, don't refuse."
An Ran wanted to refuse but swallowed it down. She actually had a good impression of Aunt Mei and felt that she was more of a qualified mother-in-law than Liu Meijun.
It's just that Aunt Mei's status is embarrassing, and few juniors take her seriously. If she insists on rejecting her gift, it will embarrass her and think that she dislikes her.
An Ran curved her lips and whispered, "Thank you, Aunt Mei."
Aunt Mei couldn't help but look happy when she saw An Ran accepted the bracelet. She pulled her and asked her how her days were going. She also thoughtfully asked how Xiao Yue was taking care of herself and whether she had any physical injuries.
An Ran is even more heartwarming, this is what a mother-in-law should be like. Unfortunately, Aunt Mei is not her mother-in-law.
Nie Canghao sat down in front of the hospital bed and was asking Butler Wei some daily things about Mr. Nie.
Aunt Mei's beautiful eyes flashed, and she quietly suggested to An Ran: "We haven't seen each other for a long time, how about we say a few words of respect alone?"
An Ran also felt that there was no point in standing here. In addition, she really had no feelings for the old man lying on the hospital bed, especially when he sent Butler Wei to arrange "euthanasia" for her, so she felt even more helpless towards Mr. Nie.
Feeling it.
She didn't want to pretend to be a filial son and grandson by standing in front of the hospital bed, so she agreed to Aunt Mei's invitation, and the two of them left the ward together.
When the two left, no one in the ward seemed to pay attention to them. Nie Canghao, who was talking to Butler Wei, glanced at them casually, then withdrew his gaze and continued to ask about Mr. Nie's situation.
Aunt Mei took An Ran to the lounge next door and made tea for her with her own hands.
Because Mr. Nie was obsessed with tea ceremony, Aunt Mei had developed a good tea art over the years. She set up the tea ceremony very seriously, which made An Ran feel a little embarrassed.
"Aunt Mei, don't go to such trouble, just make a pot of tea." An Ran felt that Aunt Mei was an elder, so it was unreasonable for her to serve a junior like herself so diligently.
But she couldn't get involved, after all, she was not good at tea ceremony.
Aunt Mei finished the tea ceremony and finally brewed a pot of the best Biluochun. She poured a bowl with her own hands and handed it to An Ran.
An Ran hurriedly took it with both hands and thanked him, "You have already worked very hard to take care of grandpa, and you have to spend so much effort making tea for me..."
For some reason, she always felt that there was something behind Aunt Mei's attentiveness.
"An Ran, I have a few words that I don't know whether to say or not..." Aunt Mei started hesitantly.
An Ran put down the tea bowl, lowered her eyes slightly, and said softly: "It's okay to say whatever Aunt Mei has to say."
Aunt Mei hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Cang Hao's incident is really beyond my expectation. If he hadn't personally broken the news, who would have thought that he was not Qingyu... I really didn't recognize it, brothers.
They are so similar, they almost look like the same person."
safely:"……"
The simple words of these sentences pierced her heart, and she deeply resonated with them.
"I didn't expect that the old man would make such a ruthless decision! For the benefit of the family and to preserve the reputation of the Nie family, he actually wanted to get rid of you and silence you... I have been trying to persuade him, but it's a pity that he can't say anything for you.
Fortunately, Cang Hao can protect you." Aunt Mei smiled happily.
An Ran bit her lip, raised her eyes to look at Aunt Mei, and asked: "Do you know where Qingyu went? Do you know where he is now? How is he doing now? Why doesn't he come back..."
Aunt Mei's eyes flashed, a little unnatural: "Silly boy, you have so many questions, which one should I answer first?"
An Ran looked at her nervously and asked only what she wanted to know most: "Is Qingyu still alive?"
Aunt Mei's eyes flashed and she whispered: "He should still be alive, but I don't know the details very well. My child, you see I act like a human being next to the old man. In fact, I am nothing. I am better than you in many things."
Not much is known.”
An Ran believed what she said was true. After all, a nameless woman who warmed Mr. Nie's bed had no right to know about many things.
"But as long as I can help you, I don't need to say anything." Aunt Mei expressed her attitude to her. "Qingyu is a good boy. He is the only junior in this family who respects me besides you. I must repay the kindness of knowing and appreciating me.
I am willing to help you find out his whereabouts."
"Really! Great!" An Ran's eyes lit up when she heard this. She finally found an ally. "How should we find out the whereabouts of Qingyu! Where did he go? Such a big thing happened this time.
The entire imperial capital circle has been turned upside down, why hasn’t he shown up yet..."
Aunt Mei subconsciously clenched her fingers, lowered her eyelids, and said, "Someone doesn't want him to show up again."
"Who is it?!" An Ran quickly understood. Her pupils were shaking, and she suddenly realized and became furious: "It's Nie Canghao..."
Everything that Nie Canghao now owns originally belonged to Nie Qingyu! He occupied the position that belonged to Nie Qingyu and misappropriated the equity that belonged to Nie Qingyu. Of course, he did not want his brother to come back to compete with him for the qualification to be the heir of the Nie family.
"Shh," Aunt Mei looked around and warned in a low voice: "Be careful, the walls have ears, it will be serious if someone hears you."
An Ran was angry and anxious, and had an indescribable complex emotion that tortured her to the point of going crazy and almost giving rise to violent impulses.
She pinched her palms hard to control herself from holding up the chair and hitting Nie Canghao on the head.
"What on earth did he do to Qingyu... Was Qingyu killed by him..." An Ran bit her lip and her eyes turned scarlet red.
Aunt Mei was frightened by her appearance and hurriedly explained: "Don't think too badly of Cang Hao. After all, they are twin brothers. How could they really commit brother-killing? He just doesn't want Qingyu to show up for the time being.
.Right now, Cang Hao and his second uncle are having a dispute over the inheritance rights of the Nie family, and the uncle and nephew have a bloody fight. If Qing Yu appears again at this time, wouldn't the situation be even more unfavorable to Cang Hao."
An Ran slowly calmed down and asked again eagerly: "Is Qingyu still alive?"
"Of course!" Aunt Mei seemed to be amused by her persistence and comforted: "He just has a lingering leg problem that makes it difficult to show up. Think about it, how could Nie's CEO be sitting in a wheelchair? It would affect the company's image too much.
Yes. It’s because of this that Cang Hao is temporarily appointed as acting president.”
An Ran breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and finally felt relieved.
As long as Nie Qingyu is still alive, no matter where he is, even at the end of the world, she will find him!
"An Ran," Aunt Mei looked at her and said quietly: "I need your help with something. If it is done, maybe you can see Qingyu."
