“Yes,” Ji Yuanyuan coaxed her. “Our Tangtang is a big child now. A sensible big child.”
Tangtang’s expression became smug.
For the rest of the journey, Qin Mucheng drove all the way to the First Hospital.
At the door of the ward, Lin Zhi’s uncle was still there.
Lin Zhi’s a.s.sistant was pestering him.
“I’m sorry. The doctor said that President Lin’s body was still too weak. He can’t see anyone now.”
“Can’t see anyone? Wasn’t Gu Zhiyan human? Why can an outsider like her enter but not me? I’m Little Zhi’s biological uncle.”
“Mr. Lin, it was President Lin’s idea to let Miss Gu in.”
“Get out of my way. I’m Little Zhi’s only relative in the world now. If you don’t move away, I won’t be polite.”
“How do you want to be impolite?” Qin Mucheng stepped forward and asked coldly.
When Lin Zhi’s uncle saw Qin Mucheng, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he smiled. “President Qin, you’re here to see Little Zhi too? Perfect timing. Let’s go in together.”
“Lin Zhi can’t see too many people now. If you’re really thinking about him, come back another day.” Ji Zi’ang said rudely.
Lin Zhi’s uncle wanted to say something more, but when he saw Qin Mucheng’s cold face, he eventually gave up.
He muttered in his heart, “This kid from the Qin family is not easy to deal with.”
Now, he obviously wanted to help Lin Zhi. If he continued to pester him, he might offend the Qin family. Even if they met Lin Zhi, they probably wouldn’t be able to talk about anything.
Forget it. Let’s do it another day. These people couldn’t stay by Lin Zhi’s side all the time.
Gu Zhiyan was easy to deal with.
“If that’s the case, I’ll come back another day.” Lin Zhi’s uncle smiled.
“See you later, President Qin.” He nodded at Qin Mucheng.
Qin Mucheng nodded at him but did not say anything.
After Lin Zhi’s uncle left, Lin Zhi’s a.s.sistant went forward and knocked on the door. “President Lin and Miss Gu, President Ji, President Qin, and Mrs. Qin are here.”
Tangtang looked troubled in Qin Mucheng’s arms.
She tugged at Qin Mucheng’s collar quietly, “Daddy, I want to pee…”
Tangtang had just finished speaking when the door to the ward opened.
Gu Zhiyan appeared at the door. Her eyes were red.
When she saw Ji Yuanyuan, she wanted to say something but stopped herself…
“How is Mister Lin?” Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward and held her hand.
“He’s awake. He’s been lying on the hospital bed for a few months. He’s not in a good state.” Gu Zhiyan whispered.
As she spoke, she wiped the corners of her eyes.
When she looked up again, there was already a smile on her face.
“This is Tangtang, right? I’m Auntie Gu. I’m sorry that I was in a hurry today and didn’t bring you a greeting gift. Auntie will make it up to you tomorrow.” Gu Zhiyan greeted Tangtang very politely.
“h.e.l.lo, Auntie Gu.” Tangtang frowned.
Gu Zhiyan was a little curious and looked at Ji Yuanyuan. “What’s wrong?”
Ji Yuanyuan glanced at Tangtang and whispered, “She was holding her pee in order to see you earlier.”
“Mommy!” Tangtang blushed.
Gu Zhiyan burst into laughter. She quickly stepped aside. “Come in. There’s a toilet inside.”
Qin Mucheng walked in with Tangtang in his arms.
When she entered, she saw Lin Zhi lying on the hospital bed.
He had lost a lot of weight, and his eyes were a little dull.
When he saw Qin Mucheng enter, he said hoa.r.s.ely, “Thank you…”
Qin Mucheng nodded at him. He did not stop and walked towards the bathroom. “Sorry to disturb you. Can I borrow the bathroom?”
When they reached the bathroom door, Tangtang refused to go in no matter what. “You’re a boy. Let Mommy do it.”
Ji Yuanyuan, who had followed Qin Mucheng in, heard this and quickly went forward to take Tangtang from Qin Mucheng’s hands.
Ji Zi’ang followed closely behind. He casually sat on the stool beside the bed and boasted to Lin Zhi. “My niece’s gender awareness is quite good, right?” “Thank you for your hard work.” Lin Zhi’s lips twitched.
“It’s not hard at all. Just give me a little more of the year-end bonus.” He waved his hand.
“I’ll contact someone tomorrow to reallocate the club’s shares.” Lin Zhi nodded slightly.
“Really?” Ji Zi’ang sat up straight.
“I’ll give you ten more.”
Ji Zi’ang gulped. “Really?”
“It’s true!” Lin Zhi’s tone was unyielding.
Ji Zi’ang chuckled. “In that case, I won’t stand on ceremony with you. Thank you, President Lin.”
Lin Zhi didn’t say anything. He looked at Gu Zhiyan with a gentle expression.
“Sister-in-law, please have a seat.” Ji Zi’ang quickly stood up from his chair and said to Gu Zhiyan politely.
Gu Zhiyan blushed when she heard this address.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she still continued. “Sit down. You haven’t seen him in a long time. Talk to him more.”
In the washroom, Ji Yuanyuan finished with Tangtang.
Her bladder was released, and Tangtang’s expression returned to normal.
“Aunt Gu, Uncle Lin.” Coming out of the bathroom, she greeted Gu Zhiyan and Lin Zhi with a smile.
Gu Zhiyan was a little overwhelmed by the favor. She stepped forward and gently touched Tangtang’s little hand. “h.e.l.lo. I’m a good friend of your mother.”
“I know. My mom always talks about you at home. She says you’re especially beautiful.” Tangtang’s coaxing words came out of her mouth.
Gu Zhiyan believed her. She touched her face and was a little shy. “Really?”
Lin Zhi, who was lying on the hospital bed, gently watched Tangtang and Gu Zhiyan interact with a smile on his face.
After all, Lin Zhi had just woken up and couldn’t speak for too long.
Qin Mucheng and the rest stayed in the ward for less than half an hour before they tactfully left.
Before he left, he stayed in the ward alone and talked to Lin Zhi about the club.
Gu Zhiyan sent Ji Yuanyuan’s family of three out.
Gu Zhiyan held Ji Yuanyuan’s hand and said emotionally, “Thank you so much for coming at this time. If it weren’t for you guys, I really wouldn’t have been able to deal with Lin Zhi’s good uncle.”
“Why are you being so polite? If you need anything, just let me know.” Ji Yuanyuan patted the back of Gu Zhiyan’s hand to comfort her.
Ji Zi’ang had not come out yet, so the atmosphere was a little silent.
Ji Yuanyuan hesitated for a few seconds before asking, “Uncle Gu… What’s his att.i.tude now?”
Gu Zhiyan smiled bitterly when she heard that. “What kind of att.i.tude can he have? He doesn’t want me to come. But he couldn’t persuade me and is in a cold war with me now. Now that Lin Zhi has woken up, I plan to bring him home when he’s better so that he can explain it to my dad in person.”
Ji Yuanyuan sighed helplessly. “Uncle Gu has already made up his mind. I don’t know if he can trust it.”
Could Gu Wenbin trust Lin Zhi so easily when it came to matters involving Gu Zhiyan?
However, it was not easy to prove this kind of thing.
It was easy to prove that he had said something or done something.
It was hard to prove that he had never said or done anything!
“The one who tied the knot must undo it.” Qin Mucheng said leisurely from the side..
