Chapter 2188: Given Birth
“Given birth. It’s good to have given birth.” At another hospital, Zhu Chengqi, who was wearing an oxygen mask, smiled sweetly when he heard that not only were Qiao Nan and the triplets alright, but he was also shown a photo of the three wrinkly babies. “These three children look just like their mother. They’re so good-looking. When they grow up, they would definitely be practical and clever children.”
At this time, upon hearing the noise outside, the person taking care of Zhu Chengqi hurriedly kept the mobile and hid the photo which was just shown to Zhu Chengqi so that people who shouldn’t see it wouldn’t see it.
“Uncle?” w.a.n.g Yang came in from outside. He didn’t address Zhu Chengqi loudly. w.a.n.g Yang’s head was still dripping water and the moisture on his body was very obvious. It seemed that he had just come in after taking a bath. “How’s my uncle’s situation today?”
The person taking care of Zhu Chengqi looked at w.a.n.g Yang’s expression. “Chief Zhu’s still alright today. There are no particular problems. He’s just sleeping a little longer today and doesn’t really like to wake up. w.a.n.g Yang, if you have time, you should spend more time with Chief Zhu whenever you can.”
In other words, the situation of Zhu Chengqi now was quite bleak.
w.a.n.g Yang loosened his frowning eyebrows slightly. It was as if a big stone was removed from his heart. “I also want to spend more time with him. However, you know about the Zhu family situation as well. I have to help my uncle keep an eye on those things and not let his hard work and efforts be ruined. I’ll try.”
w.a.n.g Yang visited Zhu Chengqi every day now. The news he was most worried to hear about was that Zhu Chengqi’s condition was improving. w.a.n.g Yang was already feeling annoyed that Zhu Chengqi was just delaying day by day and refusing to die. If Zhu Chengqi’s illness suddenly got better and he might even be able to live longer, w.a.n.g Yang felt that he would go crazy. He couldn’t wait for his uncle, Zhu Chengqi, to be dead.
To be honest, w.a.n.g Yang put in an effort to take care of Zhu Chengqi’s everything because he felt that everything would become his after Zhu Chengqi’s death. Who wouldn’t manage one’s own things well? As long as he took care of Zhu Chengqi’s inheritance, once Zhu Chengqi died, he would naturally become the new owner of his wealth.
It was only when w.a.n.g Yang started to help Zhu Chengqi manage his finances did he know that the Zhu family had such a strong foundation. Back then, w.a.n.g Yang heard that his mother brought a bunch of valuable items over to the w.a.n.g family when she married his father. However, he had never seen them before, and thus, his imagination was limited. He only faintly knew that the w.a.n.g family could become better because of his mother, the daughter-in-law.
It was precisely because of this that w.a.n.g Yang was always the most-respected junior in the w.a.n.g family. No matter who it was, they would always be behind w.a.n.g Yang. However, after the Zhu family’s inheritance was handed over to w.a.n.g Yang to manage and it was his first time to see so much money, he nearly couldn’t help but want to commit a mistake.
Although the w.a.n.g family’s condition wasn’t bad, it wasn’t luxurious. Upon seeing the wealth that one could never have in their lifetime, how could they control themselves and not be tempted?
If w.a.n.g Yang valued the political help that Zhu Chengqi could bring after his death in the past, he similarly valued the Zhu family’s inheritance now. No matter how high a ranked official he became, it would just become easier for him to earn money. However, no matter how easy it would be, there was still a limit.
Within the range of this limit, w.a.n.g Yang expressed that he would need ten lifetimes to acc.u.mulate the wealth of the Zhu family’s inheritance. No wonder a number of people told him in the past that the w.a.n.g family had relied on his mother to become better. It looked like everything the w.a.n.g family owned came from his mother’s money.
When he first knew that Zhai Hua was getting a divorce from Wei De, w.a.n.g Yang despised Zhai Hua. He felt that Zhai Hua had a good deck of cards in her hands. However, she was so stupid and blind to have married Wei De, a useless man. However, when he knew how much money the Zhu family had, w.a.n.g Yang realized that he had a stupid woman like Zhai Hua by his side. This person was none other than his biological mother.
Taking the money from her family to raise his grandparents’ family? Did she have a brain?
After understanding this situation, w.a.n.g Yang went to ask his father what was going on. w.a.n.g Yang’s father was helpless as well. In the beginning, he felt that everyone was family. His parents had worked hard for a long time and it was time to hand over the burden of raising a family to the younger ones. He was the eldest brother in the family and his father had given him whatever little resources he had on his hands. As such, w.a.n.g Yang’s father felt that it was nothing to provide for his younger siblings.
When w.a.n.g Yang’s father realized that the so-called ‘nothing’ actually cost so much money and this sum of money should have been his and w.a.n.g Yang’s, w.a.n.g Yang’s father’s mentality changed. He still had the family in his heart. However, no matter how he tried to control the situation later, he could no longer get back the large sum of money he had spent earlier.
w.a.n.g Yang’s father wasn’t willing to recall such a painful incident. How was he willing to tell his only son that he used to make such a low-level mistake?
Of course, these were all in the past.
“That’s true. It isn’t easy to manage those things. It has been tough on you as well.” Of course, the person taking care of Zhu Chengqi knew how busy w.a.n.g Yang was now. He only said those words to w.a.n.g Yang so that he wouldn’t realize that something was up.
“Alright, I can only trouble you to take care of my uncle well. Now that I’m here, go and rest. After I leave, you still have to continue taking care of him. Thankfully, you are here to help during this period of time. I will thank you well in the future.” When the Zhu family’s money became his in the future, he wouldn’t be lacking money at all.
w.a.n.g Yang knew that Zhu Chengqi was considered to be a righteous and impartial man. He didn’t have the slightest bit of ‘understanding’. w.a.n.g Yang didn’t understand it in the past. n.o.body would complain that they had too much money in their hands. It was easy to get into a mutually beneficial relations.h.i.+p where one wouldn’t get caught for taking another’s money to help resolve a small issue for the other party, and they wouldn’t be known as taking bribes. Why was it that his uncle always rejected such good things and didn’t talk about favors at all?
Sometimes, those people who needed Zhu Chengqi’s help came knocking on the w.a.n.g family’s door. Even if w.a.n.g Yang’s mother, who was his biological sister, showed up, Zhu Chengqi didn’t give them any face. This matter had always made w.a.n.g Yang brood over it. However, w.a.n.g Yang no longer did so now.
The Zhu family was really not lacking money. As such, there was completely no need for Zhu Chengqi to risk getting himself into trouble for that small profit from others.
