Chapter 581: Chapter 582: Don’t Stay Away Too Long
Chiang Xiao’s impression of Zheng Yucheng improved a lot.
“There’s no need to bring up the past,” Chiang Songhai was genuinely embarrassed.
He never felt that he owed Xue Liujin any favor. At that ti, having dicine to treat injuries and lending a helping hand was very normal, wasn’t it?
But the bad part was, he did actually find out the person’s address later and even went to visit, all to seek a future for his young nephew.
This matter, in Chiang Songhai’s view, was sowhat unscrupulous and rather shaful, so when he ca back to the provincial capital this ti, he didn’t dare to ntion visiting Chiang Yuequn, let alone ntion to Chiang Xiao that he knew the Xue Family in the city.
“My father-in-law still ntions you from ti to ti. Uncle Songhai, here’s what. After we finish eating, let’s have a cup of tea at my father-in-law’s place. If he learns that you’re here, his spirits might even get better,” Zheng Yucheng said.
“Brother Liujin, what’s wrong?” Chiang Songhai hurriedly asked.
“I don’t know why, I’ve been suffering from insomnia, just can’t sleep, and it’s been over half a year without getting better. As soon as I lie down, I feel like I’m short of breath and stifled.” Zheng Yucheng sighed and said, “This lack of sleep makes my temper worse, blowing up every three days, and it’s been really tough on my mother-in-law too.”
Insomnia?
Hearing this, Chiang Songhai hesitated. Originally, he didn’t want to go and felt that he had no face to see Xue Liujin. But now, learning about his ill health, he felt it would be unkind and too indifferent not to visit.
Seeing his expression, Chiang Xiao knew what he was thinking and said, “Wouldn’t that disturb Old Xue?”
“Not at all, not at all. Right now, we are all hoping for so happy events or visitors to cheer him up. Xiao Chiang, you must co along later.”
Chiang Xiao agreed.
ng Xinian slightly frowned.
After a while, taking advantage of the mont they were eating and chatting, he moved closer to her and spoke in a lower voice, “Don’t stay too long, just sit for a while and then co back.”
“Aren’t you going?” Chiang Xiao asked.
“Why should I go? No, I’m not.” Seeing that Chiang Xiao still didn’t quite understand who Xue Liujin was, he moved his chair closer and continued talking to her in a quieter voice.
“That Xue Liujin, although he never held any official position, and is already retired now, is quite influential with his connections, and he was an old comrade of Grandpa’s. Back in the day, he was known to be honest and reliable; those people still think fondly of him. His words carry weight.”
Chiang Xiao was taken aback and couldn’t help asking, “Oh, but why are you telling
all this?” She wasn’t going there to curry favor with Xue Liujin. Why tell her all these things? Regardless of what kind of person Xue Liujin is, what does it have to do with her?
Looking at her bright, blinking eyes, ng Xinian always felt those eyes were too bright and too beautiful. He felt his face grow warm, “An old comrade of Grandpa’s, can’t I introduce you? What if Old Xue suddenly gets in touch with Grandpa and brings you up?”
So what if he brings her up? Haven’t you already ntioned
to your grandfather?
For so reason, Chiang Xiao felt her face warm up too and quickly changed the subject.
“But aren’t you familiar with Old Xue, too?”
Why did it seem that he wasn’t very enthusiastic with Chairman Zheng just now?
ng Xinian’s lips curled slightly, “I left when I was fourteen and seldom ntioned my family to anyone. Zheng Yucheng doesn’t even know who my grandfather is.”
Chiang Xiao watched his suddenly indifferent deanor and felt a softness in her heart.
