Chapter 248 Chu Xiao Returns to the Capital

Chu Jinhuai already felt guilty towards his son Chu Xiao, and at this moment he lowered his head like a child who had made a mistake, and only spoke after a long time.

“I’ve wronged you and your grandmother all these years. I plan to divorce Huang Xiu’e. She can’t take a single penny of the Chu family’s assets. Your sister is married, so you will have to come back and inherit the Chu family.”

“I’m not interested in your mess; I’m talking about Grandma being abused,” Chu Xiao said bluntly.

"It's up to you. I just hope you can inherit Kinder," Chu Jinhuai insisted.

This is the only thing he insists on.

He would only feel at ease if he handed Kinder over to Chu Xiao.

"I can't just let Grandma and you off like this." Chu Xiao said this, pushed open the door, and strode away.

Chu Jinhuai was left standing alone in the empty fire escape, muttering to himself, "I hope they won't let me go!"

He called the police not because he really wanted Huang Xiu'e to go to jail, but just to keep a police report.

This is good evidence that Chu Xiao really wants to do something.

With a brain as sharp as my son's, he would surely have thought of this.

Fu Shengyang was prepared. As soon as Chu Xiao came out, he stopped him and said, "Let's go, I'll take you back to your place."

Chu Xiao didn't stand on ceremony with him and left together. "Are you acquiring Longjin Hospital?"

"Tsk tsk~" Fu Shengyang scoffed, "You said you weren't going back to Beijing, yet you know such inside information."

Chu Xiao: "You know how big Ji Yubai's mouth is. Besides his wife, he only dotes on your wife. He calls her 'little sister-in-law' all the time."

Fu Shengyang smiled; he couldn't refute those words.

Xiaoyue is Ji Yubai's strategist for happiness, how could he not treat her well?

A glint of light flashed in Chu Xiao's sharp eyes. "Keep a low profile for now. I'll give you a big gift in a while."

"Okay, I'll wait for your good news." Fu Shengyang didn't ask any more questions and thanked him first.

After acquiring Longjin Hospital, the hospital needed to be upgraded and required the purchase of equipment.

There will be plenty of opportunities for cooperation with Chu's Jianda Medical Equipment Company.

night.

After a busy day, An Xiaoyue held a small medicine mallet and massaged her aching arms and legs.

She asked Fu Shengyang, puzzled, "You know, Brother Chu's stepmother doesn't seem like a very capable person, so why is Brother Chu so afraid of her?"

“Old Xiao isn’t afraid of him,” Fu Shengyang said. “Old Xiao cares about his father and is concerned about his father’s feelings and reputation. He doesn’t want his father to be caught in the middle, so he chooses to compromise himself.”

An Xiaoyue pondered for a moment, thinking of Chu Xiao's resolute face and the meticulous man Hua Lan had described.

Chu Xiao is a person who is tough on the outside but soft on the inside.

She nodded in agreement, "That makes sense. Brother Chu may not seem to care on the surface, but he is actually very loyal and righteous."

Uncle Chu didn't protect Huang Xiu'e, so Brother Chu wouldn't be lenient or let Huang Xiu'e off easily in the matter of Grandma Chu.

I'm afraid the Chu family's fortunes are about to be turned upside down.

On the same night, Hua Lan lay in bed, tossing and turning, a familiar figure constantly appearing in her mind.

She went to the lab to pick up her report this afternoon and happened to see a man in camouflage walking through the hospital corridor.

That figure from behind looked exactly like Chu Xiao.

But Chu Xiao clearly said he was on a mission and couldn't possibly be in Beijing.

Could it be that she misses Chu Xiao so much that everyone she sees resembles him?

Hua Lan doubted herself.

Unable to think of anything interesting, she edited the story into a text and sent it to Chu Xiao as a report on her day.

"I guess I've been eating too much of the dog food Xiaoyue fed me. This afternoon I saw a soldier in camouflage, and now that I think about it, that person really looked a lot like you. But you couldn't possibly be in Beijing... I guess I miss you too much."

After sending the message, Hua Lan turned over, trying to forget the figure from that afternoon.

In the quiet night, the bright lights outside the window streamed into the room, bringing a touch of starlight.

Suddenly, a beam of light appeared in the darkness.

The phone screen lit up; a message came in.

Chu Xiao took a deep drag on his cigarette before putting his legs down and reaching for his phone.

When she saw the message, her tightly pursed lips curled up in a barely perceptible smile.

He just stared at the messages Hua Lan sent, puffing away at his cigarette one puff after another, as if he were eating while reading the messages.

He stubbed out his nearly finished cigarette in the ashtray before typing on the keyboard:

"What will life be like staying in Beijing?"

Hua Lan was surprised to receive a reply. She looked at the line of text with delight, but felt extremely annoyed.

I should have known better than to say "I miss you so much".

Chu Xiao would probably say again that she wasn't studying properly and wasting her life with her love-struck mind all day.

But she still had to say what she needed to say, since it was Chu Xiao who asked first anyway.

Hana Ran: "Oh no!"

Chu Xiao: "Why?"

What does this mean?

Wasn't that just a threat to her, telling her not to go back to Cangshan and to stay in Beijing from now on?

Hua Lan scratched her head, wondering why chatting with Chu Xiao was so mentally taxing.

"Why is life so bad in Beijing? It's all because of you!" Hua Lan muttered, typing as she read, "Because...you...are not here."

The light from the phone shone on Chu Xiao's face, revealing a rare sense of peace and happiness.

Chu Xiao: "I'm here."

Hua Lan felt that one brain wasn't enough to handle everything, so she stopped trying to guess Chu Xiao's thoughts and asked him directly:

"Are you being transferred to Beijing?"

"If that's the case, I think living in Beijing is pretty good, since I still have four years until graduation anyway."

The messages were sent one by one, and Hua Lan waited for a long time, but she did not receive a "yes" or "no" from Chu Xiao.

"What does this mean? Not replying to messages again? Did your phone get confiscated?"

Hua Lan tried to comfort herself.

She waited for another ten minutes or so, but still received no reply from Chu Xiao.

She was certain that Chu Xiao's phone had been confiscated.

"Ugh, this feeling of being constantly worried about losing something is really unpleasant!"

Before going to sleep, Hua Lan silently made plans in her mind:

If Chu Xiao stays in Beijing, she can apply for subsidized housing while Chu Xiao lives in the military base. How much money would she need to earn each month to make ends meet?

That doesn't make sense. Chu Xiao was transferred to Beijing, so why would he want her to stay in Beijing as well?

Hua Lan couldn't figure it out, so she dug out her chat history with Chu Xiao and read it over and over again.

Maybe it's because I've spent too much time with An Xiaoyue, or maybe I've had too much dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection) today.

She could actually sense from their conversation that they were a young couple discussing and planning for the future.

God!

So happy.

Hua Lan threw away her phone, covered her face, and rolled around in bed.

"Me and Chu Xiao, wife and husband, hahaha..."

Wrapped in her blanket, embracing this sweet feeling, Hua Lan fell asleep without realizing it.
