Chapter 59: Entangled with the Gu family's kid
"Qinghuan, that kid has grown so big, and he hasn't begged me for anything." Du Huaishan turned a deaf ear, interrupted Ji Shennian and said to himself, "The first time she opened her mouth was for you." As a grandfather, I have to help her fulfill this wish, right? ”
"Or do you think our family Qinghuan is not worthy of you?" Old Man Du squinted, and his old face carried an irresistible coercion.
"Old Du, in fact, I'm already engaged." Ji Shennian replied to the question, "My mother is not in good health and has been in the hospital, so the engagement ceremony has not been held publicly for the time being." But ......"
"That little reporter, huh?" Du Huaishan once again strongly interrupted Ji Shennian's words, and snorted sarcastically, "I've heard some about her, and it seems that she is still entangled with the Gu family's kid." ”
Du Huaishan will not be idle to pay attention to gossip news, the reason why he knows about Tang Manman is naturally because of Du Qinghuan. Thinking of this, Ji Shennian's face was already dyed with gloom.
"Our Du family is not unreasonable, that little reporter has your flesh and blood, when the child is born, Qinghuan will take care of him as his own child. As for the child's mother, spend some money to send it away. ”
Du Huaishan took a sip of tea, "Or if she wants to live abroad, the Du family can pave the way for her." As long as she promises not to appear in City A again, everything is easy to say. ”
How smart Ji Shennian is, Du Huaishan will talk about this, which is obviously inevitable.
"Shennian, just now I said that you are the junior I value the most, and you are sensible and sensible. You shouldn't be confused about marriage and family affairs, right? After not getting a response from him for a long time, Du Huaishan accentuated his tone a little.
For a time, the tea room was quiet.
I don't know how long it took, the tea on the table was no longer hot, and Ji Shennian's voice sounded, "I'm sorry, Old Du." ”
"Qing Huan is right, you were confused by that little reporter." Du Qinghuan slowly got up with his crutches, "In that case, you can be quiet here, when you think clearly, and when you will leave." ”
As the words fell, footsteps sounded in the corridor and courtyard at the same time, and after a while, all exits were blocked by black-clad bodyguards.
"Du Lao!" Ji Shennian's expression changed slightly, when he came, out of respect for Du Huaishan, he asked Secretary Li and the bodyguards to wait outside the courtyard, but he didn't want to give Du Huaishan an opportunity instead.
"You watched me grow up, so you know my temper. As long as it's what I decide, even if you lock me up here until death, I won't change my mind. Ji Shennian followed and got up, and the momentum that he had deliberately restrained before spread out with his body, which was on par with Du Huaishan.
Du Huaishan's eyes showed a little appreciation, "Coincidentally, I am also a stubborn person. ”
After speaking, he turned around and left with the support of his subordinates. Ji Shennian wanted to follow, but before he stepped out of the door of the tea room, he was stopped by the black-clothed bodyguard.
In the hospital, the operation has been going on for ten hours.
Tang Manman stood on the side of the corridor, staring closely at the indicator light outside the operating room, and his heart gradually became anxious.
"Don't worry." As soon as his shoulders were hot, a gentle reassuring voice came from beside him, "When the operation goes well, sometimes it is normal for the operation to be slightly prolonged. ”
Tang Manman pulled the coat on her shoulder, her cold body blown by the cold wind gradually warmed up, and there was a burst of pain in her palm, she lowered her head differently, only to find that she was holding the phone too tightly and that her hand had been poked out.
"Haven't been contacted yet?" Seeing her movements in his eyes, Gu Ran asked in a low voice.
"Nope." Tang Manman shook his head, tugged at the corners of his mouth, and replied comfortingly, "He may be busy and didn't see my news." ”
Gu Ran glanced at her deeply, and finally swallowed back the words that came to his lips, and he immediately rushed over when he learned from other doctors that Tang Siyuan had surgery today.
"Doctor Gu, you don't have to stay here with me." Tang Manman exhaled slowly, regained his strength, and smiled at the other party, "I'm causing you trouble again." ”
"No, it won't." Gu Ran felt a slight pain in his heart, but his face was still gentle, "I happened to have no surgery today, so I happened to accompany you." ”
Seeing that Tang Manman was about to refuse, he immediately added, "I'll leave when you contact Shennian, otherwise I won't worry." ”
Gu Ran had already said it to this point, Tang Manman couldn't bear to refuse, but she didn't want to leave even the slightest illusion for the other party, which was unfair to Gu Ran.
Just as she was about to speak, the light in the operating room suddenly went out, and the operation was over.
Tang Manman didn't have time to think about anything else, so he hurriedly responded.
"The operation went well." The doctor took off his mask, his face full of exhaustion, "But I will focus on observation for a few days, and it will be safe if there is no rejection." ”
The boulder hanging in his chest fell to the ground instantly, and the strength of his body seemed to be drained, Tang Manman relaxed and cried with joy.
That's great...... The operation was successful and my father was saved.
By the way, she has to inform Ji Shennian. Tang Manman rubbed the corners of his sour eyes, and trembled and broadcast the man's number.
Gu Ran, who was learning about other situations from his colleagues on the side, had been paying attention to Tang Manman's movements, and his heart was slightly bitter when he saw this.
"The patient will be sent back to the ward in a while, and I can't visit him for the time being, so you can help me talk to the family." The attending doctor patted Gu Ran on the shoulder, yawned and left.
Silence returned to the corridor, and Gu Ran walked to Tang Manman's side, and could faintly hear the mechanical prompt sound coming from her phone.
The excitement and joy at the beginning disappeared with the unanswered calls, Tang Manman put down the phone and hung up the phone, looking at the call record column She made to Ji Shennian today, and suddenly felt a little aggrieved.
"Ding Dong" two push tones sounded at the same time in the quiet hallway, and an apparently secretly taken photo appeared on Tang Manman's mobile phone, and the protagonist of the photo was the man she hadn't contacted all day.
"The marriage between the Ji family and the Du family?" Gu Ran looked at the news push on his mobile phone, his pupils shrank, and his expression immediately cooled, "This is impossible." ”
Du Qinghuan likes Ji Shennian, he knows, but he knows even more that Ji Shennian doesn't mean anything to Du Qinghuan.
Tang Manman didn't speak, just looked at the news quietly, and the photo showed Ji Shennian and an old man sharing something. The old man looked at Ji Shennian's eyes with obvious appreciation, and Du Qinghuan sat next to the old man with a bright and happy smile.
She thought she would be sad or even angry to see such news, but her heart was surprisingly calm, as if she had finally proved that she was in a sweet dream, and at this time the dream was finally about to wake up.
"Manman?" Gu Ran hesitated forward, "Don't be sad, there should be another hidden reason in this, the marriage between the Ji family and the Du family is indeed a win-win decision from a business point of view, but Shen Nian will not treat his marriage as a commercial victim." ”
"I'm not upset." Tang Manman turned her head, her eyes calm, she was just a little lost.
Gu Ran was stunned, thinking that she was pretending to be strong and feeling more and more distressed in her heart, so she couldn't help but step forward and gently hugged the person, "Manman, I mean if, if you can't give you happiness and make you happy in your old age, can you look at me?" ”
"Don't rush to answer me." Sensing Tang Manman's refusal, Gu Ran's heart sank, and his voice trembled a little, "I can wait for this answer ......"
Tang Manman sighed silently, and an indescribable sense of tiredness spread from the bottom of her heart, she and Gu Ran were actually the same people, but Gu Ran was braver than her to say the feelings in her heart.
When Ji Shennian returned to the villa, it was already early in the morning, and when he entered the door, he rushed straight to the master bedroom on the second floor.
Dealing with Mr. Du is more tiring than him working overtime in the company for a week.
I don't know when the sound of water in the bathroom stopped, Tang Manman wrapped in a bathrobe and pushed the door out with a body of water vapor, and he was obviously stunned when he faced the man with a tired face, and then he retracted his expression and said calmly, "Are you back?" ”
"Hmm." Ji Shennian exhaled deeply, the sweet aroma after bathing soothed his exhaustion, and the nerve endings became inexplicably excited.
"Is the operation over?" He stepped forward and took the little woman into his arms, and lowered his head and rubbed the tip of his nose against her fair cheek, which was the pattern he had recently enjoyed with Tang Manman.
Every time Tang Manman was itchy and avoided pushing him away, but he was happy to do it.
"Hmm." Tang Manman lowered his eyes, his body motionless and let the man move.
Ji Shennian paused, frowning suspiciously, "Why didn't you hide today?" ”
"I'm tired." Tang Manman's tone and expression were very normal, but those eyes did not have the usual helpless smile.
Ji Shennian faintly felt that something was not right, and after thinking about it for a while, he guessed that it was because he did not reply to the little woman's call in time, so that the little woman was left alone in the hospital and waited for Tang Siyuan to finish the operation.
He was about to say something when Tang Manman gently broke away from his hand, "I want to sleep, can I?" ”
The tone of inquiry that he had never had before made Ji Shennian stunned, "Of course, you can." ”
Tang Manman nodded, didn't pay attention to the accounting for a long time, and climbed up on his own. The bed fell asleep. Ji Shennian was silent for a moment, after all, he was still defeated by tiredness, he didn't think about it anymore, and after a simple shower, he also went on. The bed hugged the little woman to sleep.
Before falling asleep, Ji Shennian planned to explain to the little woman the next day, as for the matter of Du Lao's forced marriage, there was no need to say it, and telling the little woman would only add to the troubles.
However, the next day, Don Manman did not give him a chance to explain. When Ji Shennian woke up, the other side of the bed was already cold, and the housekeeper told him that Tang Manman had gone to the company early in the morning.
Ji Shennian frowned and got up, and was just about to ask someone to prepare a car to go to Ji's, when another uninvited guest came to the villa.
"What are you doing here?" Ji Shennian looked at the woman sitting upright in the living room, his eyes were as cold as ice.
