Eighties Sweetheart Wife

Chapter 17: Chapter 17 I Can’t Pretend Not to Hear, Apologize!_1 Chapter 17: Chapter 17 I Can’t Pretend Not to Hear, Apologize!_1 Lin Qing looked at Lin Jia, who had no reaction, and gripped her hand urgently, explaining that she would return to Beidu tomorrow, and that her leg was just a minor issue that could be healed quickly.

She also told Lin Jia that their grandfather abroad was very concerned about them and that after they retrieved their mother’s belongings, they would take the child to go abroad and visit their grandfather…

But Lin Jia was ashen-faced, seemingly unable to hear anything.

Lin Qing, not knowing what to do, wished she could slap herself.

It was all Song Yunuan’s fault.

If it hadn’t been for her bringing in a ragpicker old man, she wouldn’t have spoken so thoughtlessly.

Just then, Su Junze came in with some things.

Seeing the scene, he was somewhat puzzled.

He still said, “Eat something first.

I’ve already arranged tomorrow’s car to Beidu, we leave at eight, and the hospital has been contacted as well.”

Lin Qing didn’t speak.

Lin Jia leaned against the headboard, her gaze unfocused, her hands tightly clutching the quilt, feeling life was just a burden, better off dead.

Suddenly, Su Junze exclaimed.

An uneasy Lin Qing asked him, “What’s wrong?”

Su Junze frowned, “When I was coming upstairs, I saw an old man who looked very familiar, somewhat like Principal Ji from Beidu Medical College…”

Lin Qing felt her breath catch, “Principal Ji, that renowned master of medicine?”

Su Junze furrowed his brow.

It was hardly possible.

The atmosphere in the ward grew heavy, and Su Junze didn’t know what to do.

Just then, a series of footsteps came from the corridor.

Su Junze went out to look, and there were the Hospital Director, that ragpicker old man, and a young girl?

Lin Qing’s face changed colors at the sight of so many people.

But having seen much of the world, especially upon seeing the Hospital Director’s demeanor, she suppressed the doubts in her heart and dared not blame as she had just before.

Song Yunuan stood obediently behind the crowd.

Professional matters should be left to professionals.

Hospital Director Zhuang spoke to Su Junze and Lin Qing, “This is my mentor, I asked him to come and look at Lin Zhiqing’s leg.”

Old Man Ji, however, turned to look at Hospital Director Zhuang and asked, “What is your assessment?”

After all, he had learned from him for five years.

“I was just communicating with Dr.

Lew, but the best time for treatment has passed, and it’s a bit tricky, plus…”

Su Junze quickly said, “We insisted on going back to Beidu for treatment, planning to leave tomorrow.”

Old Mr.

Ji calmed down and said, “Make sure it’s taken care of!”

Those three words nearly made Hospital Director Zhuang burst into tears.

He was an orphan who had the fortune to meet his master and was taken in for five years, and it was because of those five years that he had his accomplishments today.

He dared not ask why his master was here.

He dared not ask why his master was wearing the uniform of the local junk collection station.

He also dared not ask what exactly had happened back then.

Seeing his master again, and still being allowed to address him as master, filled him with such joy he almost wanted to broadcast it to the world.

Song Yunuan watched Old Man Ji giving instructions to Hospital Director Zhuang, and when she saw a glimmer of light return to Lin Jia’s dead eyes, her heart finally settled.

After about fifteen minutes, Old Mr.

Ji finished the examination, and he turned to look at Song Yunuan, “Girl, let’s go.”

Everyone looked towards Song Yunuan.

Song Yunuan, however, pointed at Lin Qing, “Comrade Lin, don’t you have something to say?”

Old Man Ji stepped back.

He had thought the young girl wouldn’t take it to heart when someone cursed her father right to his face.

Lin Qing glared with wide eyes.

Lin Jia spoke hurriedly, her voice hoarse, “It’s Little Nuan, right?

I’m sorry, Qing’er was just anxious, that’s why she was thoughtless in her words…”

Lin Qing interjected, “Sister, was I wrong?

If her father had any sense of responsibility, would you have ended up in this situation?

Isn’t Erdao River Village a devil’s village?”

“I won’t argue with you, Comrade Lin, but you owe me an apology.

Just now you lashed out and insulted my father, I can’t pretend I didn’t hear it, apologize!”

The pretty young girl always had a smile on her face, looking completely harmless.

So, when she suddenly put on a stern face, it was quite intimidating.

Lin Jia looked at Lin Qing with pleading eyes.

Lin Qing looked at this fake heiress, indeed harboring malicious intent, choosing this moment to threaten her.

If she did not agree, would the woman demand that Grandpa Ji refuse to treat her sister?

But how did she come to know Grandpa Ji?

They seemed to have a good relationship.

Could it be that they met in the provincial estate?

Yes, after all, she grew up in that estate, and the people she knew were certainly not ordinary citizens.

She managed to take advantage of this opportunity.

But this was hard on Siqi.

The Qin family and the Su family had good relations, and just a few days ago, during her time in the province, she visited the Qin family and learned that Qin Siqi’s mother knew her own mother as well.

They just stopped contacting each other due to one thing or another.

Then, she found out about the true and false heiresses.

She also saw Qin Siqi, who was pale and emaciated.

Having grown up in the countryside, she did not fit in with the girls from the estate.

Siqi had had her privileged life stolen by this impostor for seventeen years.

It was natural for Siqi to feel resentment and injustice in her heart.

She could only hope that Uncle Qin and his wife would properly compensate Siqi.

As for Song Yunuan, she was destined to stay in the Devil’s Village for life!

As Lin Qing thought this, she glanced at Song Yunuan, gritting her teeth and slowly said, “I’m sorry, I apologize to you!”

Song Yunuan raised an eyebrow, quietly waiting.

Lin Qing: “…Thank you for finding Grandpa Ji.”

Song Yunuan: “Lashing out in anger is the least rational and most powerless act, and I hope Comrade Lin Qing is not such a person.”

Lin Qing looked at her with a dark expression.

“You don’t need to look at me like that.

It’s said that every debt has its debtor, and every wrong its wrongdoer.

I must also remind Comrade Lin Qing that this is an era of the rule of law.

Even if my father made a mistake, the law will punish him, and you must believe that the organization will seek justice for Lin Zhiqing,” she said.

After a pause, Song Yunuan’s voice turned cold, “And if you dare to insult my father in front of me again, I won’t forgive you!”

She had intended to say she would not let her off but then thought better of her words.

“If you don’t believe me, you’re welcome to try it.”

The little girl looked rather fierce.

There was a moment of silence in the ward.

Anger flared in Lin Qing’s eyes, but she was pulled back by Su Junze.

Song Yunuan turned her head and her expression changed immediately, looking at the clueless Lin Jia with a smile, her voice warm and gentle, “Lin Zhiqing, take care of your health, I’m leaving.”

Old Mr.

Ji looked at Song Yunuan with surprise.

He then left first.

Following behind were Song Yunuan and the closely attentive Hospital Director Zhuang.

Old Mr.

Ji stopped in his tracks, casting an annoyed glance at Hospital Director Zhuang, “Go tend to your duties, I still have things to do…” He paused then added, “Come to see me tomorrow night!”

Hospital Director Zhuang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Tears almost burst forth.

At this point, Song Mingbo anxiously watched the main entrance, holding his brother’s hand.

Only when he saw his sister and Old Man Ji exit safely did he finally relax.

They stood under the shade of the trees.

Over there, Old Man Ji looked over at Song Mingbo with a grim expression.

Song Mingbo felt a chill on his back but maintained a forced smile, “If you don’t have any other matters, my brother, sister, and I will be leaving now.”

Song Yunuan hastily added, “We promise we won’t say anything.”

Little Asheng looked up at his brother and sister, asking confusedly, “Say what?

Is Grandpa Ji getting a new grandma?”

Old Man Ji’s face darkened completely as he cursed, “All of you, clear off!”
