Chapter 280
The Wen Family (2)
Her husband fell ill overnight, and looked as if he had aged rapidly in a short time. She didn’t dare to show it in front of her husband, so she finally cried out now.
They had gone through great winds and waves together for most of their lives, and their feelings for each other were very strong. Right now, she couldn’t hold back her sadness anymore.
Soon after, Old Madam Wen stopped crying and took out her mobile phone to call Liang Siyu.
“Siyu, where are you?”
“Come back and accompany your grandfather. He isn’t well, he misses you.”
“It’s not convenient to come back? What are you doing?”
“Doing homework with your classmates?”
“You’ve graduated, what homework are you doing?”
“A summer vacation project?” Old Madam Wen sighed softly, “That’s okay, go finish your business.”
Since her granddaughter was not here, Old Madam Wen could only find her daughter.
As for that child… Old Madam Wen knew that the odds were not good for her. She had been lost for so many years, even if she could survive, Old Madam Wen didn’t know what her life would be like. This was a hidden knot in the Wen family’s heart, one that could not be touched upon.
After Old Master Wen fell ill, his daughter and son-in-law took over the affairs of the company. Now those two were so busy that their feet couldn’t touch the ground, and Old Madam Wen rarely saw them. It really wasn’t easy for her to suddenly find Wen Hui.
While she was talking, Wen Hui called her first.
“Mom, there is news about the child.”
She dropped a heavy bomb as soon as she opened her mouth, which shocked Old Madam Wen.
The old lady thought that she was hearing things, she stammered and asked, “What-what did you say? News about which child?” Was it the one she was thinking about?
Wen Hui said, “Wait for me at home, we can talk about it then.”
After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone.
Wen Hui not only notified her mother, but also her husband.
The whole family was here.
They could not let Old Master Wen be worried about it right now, and it was hard to tell him before they were certain. As for Liang Siyu…it’s not good to tell her about it.
“Little Hui, what the hell is going on? Where is the child?” The old lady held her chest, her heart beating loudly.
Liang Yuanqing was the same. He was so uneasy that he broke out in a cold sweat, but all three of their faces weren’t calm, so no one felt that anything was wrong about his weird reaction.
Today’s Liang Yuanqing was no longer as high-spirited as he was normally, and his face was no longer handsome.
He went out of town a few years ago, saying it was a business trip, but he was put into prison for three months, and came back with a body full of injuries. His face was also hurt, and now looked fiercer. His feet were also a little limp, and his walking posture was no longer upright. In the last two years, he started using a cane, acting like an old man. It was just that his face didn’t look kind, and especially his scar made him look a bit frightening.
Wen Hui grew more and more unhappy with him over the years, while Liang Yuanqing had to put up a smile to appease people, and couldn’t stand tall in the Wen house.
He though that after the Old Master fell ill, it would be his turn to be the master of the family. Wen Hui was a woman, what could she do?
But who would’ve thought that just as he saw the light at the end of the tunnel, before the old man could die, the child was actually found…?
Liang Yuanqing tapped his cane uneasily with one hand to calm himself down.
Wen Hui said, “There’s some news. There’s a girl who looks very, very similar…”
She murmured a few words, then stood up and said excitedly, “I had a dream of meeting her, maybe it was a mother-daughter connection? There has been no news for so many years, but isn’t there one now? I’ll go take a look now, I’ll tell Dad once I’m sure.”
Liang Yuanqing’s eyes narrowed, and he quickly thought in his heart.
If Wen Hui wasn’t home right now and something happened to the Old Master, and the Old Madam couldn’t handle it, then he would be the one to decide everything.
At that time, the family would follow anything he said.
It was a pity… He absolutely couldn’t let Wen Hui find Jiang Xiaoman one step ahead of him, so he could only give up on this opportunity.
Liang Yuanqing remembered what had happened before, and his cold sweat broke out layer after layer. He smiled and said, “This… I don’t think it’s appropriate. For so many years, we often heard that there’s some news, but the result was still just an empty joy. If this time is also a misunderstanding, then wouldn’t you have gone for nothing? ”
Wen Hui looked at him and wanted to refute, but didn’t say anything. Indeed, this was not the first time this kind of thing happened, but this time she had a strong intuition, it must be true!
“It’s better this way. I’ll go take a look now, and if it’s confirmed, I’ll bring the child back. Anyway, we’ve waited for so many years, and I’m not in a hurry.”
“But–”
“No buts!” Liang Yuanqing said righteously. “Don’t forget, right now Dad needs you more than ever. If you go away, what if something happened with Dad here… won’t you regret it then?”
Old Madam Wen also persuaded, “Yuanqing’s idea is good, don’t be impatient. Whether it’s true or not, being on your father’s side is more important.”
Wen Hui’s complexion deteriorated. After thinking about it, she felt that she could only have him make the trip, “Then I will have to trouble you.”
Liang Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief.
But at this time, Wen Hui suddenly said, “When you get there, contact the butler, he will take you there.”
“Wait, what?” Liang Yuanqing was stunned for a moment and almost couldn’t react.
Didn’t she say that she was going to let him go first? He had to clean up before the Wen family’s people arrived!
Wen Hui looked up at him and said, “As soon as I received the news, I asked the butler to go first.”
Butler Wen had actually… already went to find Jiang Xiaoman!
Liang Yuanqing’s smile froze on his face.
