Chapter 150: But He Does Not Want to See You
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Shen Jianchuan was very thin. Since the day he woke up, only his eyes were full of life.
He could not say anything after listening to what his father said. But he managed to nod his head lightly. A man who was asleep for over ten years. His youth was wasted on the sick bed. He had missed a lot of things in his life. To know that he had a daughter, he felt happy and gratified.
Why would he not meet with his daughter?
Grandpa understood his response. He patted his knee and nodded. “I will let you see her soon.”
“Father…” Second Aunt was extremely worried. She stole a chance to call Rong Junhan when the father and the son were chatting.
Rong Junhan knew she could not stop Grandpa Shen. After all, she was Shen Jianchuan’s daughter. So, what she should do right now was not to stop them, but to register their marriage as soon as possible.
“Huang Yu, Mu Qiqi is Jianchuan’s daughter. He has the right to know about this.”
“Don’t you feel wronged about this?” Second Aunt felt helpless.
“Jianchuan is awake now. So, I won’t feel wronged now.”
What Rong Junhan said would only make the Shens sympathize with her even more. So, they would work even harder to stop Mu Qiqi from returning to the family.
Rong Junhan knew things would turn out like this. But, she still felt that she had to go to the hospital and witness the meeting between Mu Qiqi and Shen Jianchuan. Only then, she would be at ease. She would wait until the day she married into the Shen family. Then, she would have the right to educate and control her ‘daughter’!
Since Mu Qiqi was going to meet Shen Jianchuan, Sheng Xiao let Old Lin send Mu Qiqi and Su Zipei to the hospital.
Su Zipei was worried that Mu Qiqi would be bullied, but Mu Qiqi patted her on her hand and said, “Don’t worry, Aunt. I am not the old Mu Qiqi, I will not get bullied easily.”
Su Zipei still looked worried but she did not stop her.
After they reached the hospital, Mu Qiqi found out the ward where her father was staying from the front desk. But when they got into the elevator, they saw Rong Junhan. She was already standing in the elevator.
Mu Qiqi was surprised, but she still walked into the elevator with Su Zipei.
“Aunt Rong.”
“Didn’t you say that you are not going to return to the Shen family? Now that Jianchuan has just woken up and you are already rus.h.i.+ng to visit him.” The elevator stopped at the ninth floor. Rong Junhan stepped out of the elevator first, followed by Mu Qiqi and Su Zipei.
Second Aunt was standing at the door. When she saw Rong Junhan, she quickly walked toward her. “Eldest Sister.”
Mu Qiqi was just behind them. Huang Yu stopped her and said, “Qiqi, you go in later.”
“Why?” asked Mu Qiqi.
Huang Yu did not want Grandpa Shen to hear them, so she dragged Mu Qiqi to a corner. She explained, “Actually, the doctor said that your father needs to rest, and he could not be shocked. So, can you come another day? Wait until your father gets better…”
Mu Qiqi looked at Huang Yu and smiled knowingly. “Second Aunt is not like Third Aunt. When you lie, your facial expression is awkward.”
Huang Yu was dumbfounded.
“I know that you think it is unfair for Aunt Rong. But you are an elder. Should you do this to your niece? Moreover, it is the matter of my family. It has nothing to do with you.”
“But Eldest Sister has contributed a lot to the Shen family. She never complains. What would you do if you were me?”
“You do what you ought to do and I will do what I should do.” Mu Qiqi shook off her hand from Second Aunt. “Second Aunt, please be clear of who you are. Shen Jianchuan is my father. There is nothing wrong for a daughter to come visit her father.”
“But he does not want to see you.”
“Does he?” Mu Qiqi smirked and pushed forward, trying to barge in. “I will know when I go inside.”
“You cannot.”
Mu Qiqi knew Huang Yu was purposely trying to make it difficult for her. So, she did not want to give her face anymore. She took out a recording pen given to her by Sheng Xiao. “I do not wish to make it difficult for you, so you should not either. What will Grandpa Shen feel when he hears this recording?”
Huang Yu’s face changed. But she did not think she had done anything wrong.
“You have your stance and I have mine. I do not think I have done anything wrong to you.”
“Then let’s get Grandpa to listen to this.”
“You…”
Mu Qiqi snorted. She kept the pen and walked toward the ward. Before she entered, she turned to Huang Yu and said,”I used to respect the Shens since you are a family with a high reputation. But, after meeting you and Third Aunt, I think you are all the same. You are just mediocre people.”
Huang Yu could not do anything more. She could only see Mu Qiqi push open the ward door.
Grandpa Shen stood up when he saw his granddaughter coming. He presented her to Shen Jianchuan like a treasure. “Come and take a look. She is your daughter.”
Mu Qiqi looked at the thin and fragile man in the bed. The man was getting emotional. He wanted to raise his hand, but he was too weak to control his muscles.
Mu Qiqi sat beside Shen Jianchuan and held his hands.
It was the second time she met him. But she could already feel his emotions. They were indeed father and daughter.
“I don’t know why. But I hope you can get well soon. Then, you will be able to know what has happened recently.”
Shen Jianchuan blinked at Mu Qiqi.
“Don’t worry. If you want to see me, you can tell Grandpa. He will call me.”
Shen Jianchuan blinked again. His eyes got watery.
Mu Qiqi reached out and wiped away his tears. She smiled. “I am studying Forensic Science in Sheng Ting University. When you recover, you can come look for me. Forensic Science takes five years to complete.”
Shen Jianchuan wanted to speak but he could not. He wanted to touch his daughter, but his trembling hands would not obey him. Mu Qiqi had Su Ziqing’s eyes.
“I will be going to the military camp tomorrow. When I come visit you next time, you must be able to speak. Promise?”
Shen Jianchuan nodded several times.
He was not that excited when he saw Grandpa Shen and Rong Junhan when he first woke up.
Grandpa Shen was glad. Although his son was unconscious for so many years, G.o.d still gave him a daughter.
And when he knew that he had a daughter, Grandpa Shen could feel that his son’s heart had fired up.
He did not want to admit it. But he knew that his son loved Su Ziqing the most.
This had caused great jealousy in Rong Junhan. She had spent more than ten years taking care of Shen Jianchuan, but now that he had a daughter, he did not even look at her anymore.
How could she accept this?
Mu Qiqi sniffed out Rong Junhan’s displeasure. So, she knew she was at her limit. After all, Shen Jianchuan needed her care. So, she could go overboard.
