Qi Yan was in the midst of happiness, where would the trouble come from?
He raised his head and seeing that it was someone he didn’t know, his brows furrowed.
Turning to Tan Bengbeng, he realized that her expression was the same as his. His mind went blank for an instant.
“You’re not one of the medical personnel. Who are you?”
Qi Yan went on his guard and was about to stop the person when he stopped about a few meters from where they were and yelled out,
“Elderly head, Mo Kun got his men to burn the clothing factory and Missy is still inside!”
With that, the person turned and was about to make a run for it.
But, there was no way Qi Yan would let him go. He dived forward and reached out to pull him back by his shoulders forcefully, turning him over onto the ground.
Then, he stomped his foot onto his chest!
Just when he was about to drag him up, he heard Tan Bengbeng exclaim in alarm, “Elderly head! Please calm down…”
Qi Yan turned over and saw that upon hearing that the clothing factory was on fire and that Nian Xiaomu was still inside, Mo Chengxian was instantly agitated and his whole face had flushed red with emotion. He had both his hands grabbing tightly onto the handle of the wheelchair as he tried to stand up.
However, his body had stiffened and his eyes were bulging wide…
Oh no!
“He can’t have another stroke. Quick, help him back to the room and let him lie down to calm down!”
Qi Yan swiftly went to Mo Chengxian and wheeled him back to his room. He then took a syringe of medicine from the medicine box and injected it into Mo Chengxian.
At the same time, he tried to calm him down in a loud voice.
“The clothing factory is fine, Nian Xiaomu is fine as well. That person was just saying those things to try to provoke you. If you really believe his words, you’ll be falling into Mo Kun’s trap!”
“…”
The elderly head’s body was not trembling as badly as before, but some white foam still came out from the corner of his mouth.
The fire back then had been a terrifying disaster for him.
His eldest son whom he doted on the most died in the fire, together with his daughter-in-law.
Even his only granddaughter had wandered outside for so many years as a result.
To the elderly head, the trauma left behind by the fire was probably as huge as it was for Nian Xiaomu.
Moreover, the person’s words earlier may have been dubious, but he even mentioned Nian Xiaomu.
There was no way Mo Chengxian could calm down upon hearing that Nian Xiaomu was in danger…
“Nian Xiaomu is fine. The factory was on fire, but Nian Xiaomu was not inside at all. Moreover, the fire has been put out already. I just received news that the Mo Corporation board discussion has concluded that the factory will be rebuilt. The one in charge of this project will be Nian Xiaomu, your granddaughter!”
Qi Yan spoke every word in a firm and definitive tone.
Upon hearing his voice, the elderly head gradually started to compose himself.
Only his right hand was still trembling slightly.
Qi Yan held onto his arm, pausing with every word he said.
“There’s no point in you being agitated. It’ll only affect the progress of your recovery. Not only will you be unable to help Nian Xiaomu, but you’ll also make her distracted because of you. Only by recovering as soon as possible can you step out to expose Mo Kun’s deeds!”
“…”
Mo Chengxian had probably listened to his words and his originally stiffened nerves instantly loosened up and he pa.s.sed out.
The person who had barged in pretending to be medical personnel to convey the message to him was also caught by the bodyguards in the courtyard and brought over.
Upon seeing the elderly head unconscious, Tan Bengbeng was just about to ask Qi Yan how to handle the matter when she saw him standing by the elderly head’s bedside, looking as if he was worried about him.
Feeling a little touched, she walked over and stopped behind him.
“The elderly head has been through all sorts of terrible hards.h.i.+p before, he’ll definitely be fine!”
Qi Yan turned around, his face extremely miserable.
“The elderly head was so close to allowing you to marry me!”
“…”
