Meng Jin thought to himself but buried these thoughts deep in his heart.
Now, it had not been easy for Si Yu to acknowledge him. As for Mr. Meng, they could discuss it later. Who asked the old man to make such a foolish mistake?
Meng Yanzhi made mistakes. He could understand the old man doting on this grandson who had been raised by his side, but even so, there should be a limit to spoilage. This update is available on novel-fire.net
The family enjoyed the first reunion dinner in the hospital loudly and boisterously. No, it was the first reunion dinner since Mo Siyu acknowledged his father.
Outside the hospital room.
Meng Jin didn't know that Mr. Meng was actually sitting outside in a wheelchair.
A day went by without Mo Xiaolin showing up. Later, although Mo Xiaolin did bring some food over, she left right after the delivery, as if something was chasing after her.
Mr. Meng asked many people, but they all hemmed and hawed, unwilling to tell the truth. So, Mr. Meng, not giving up, secretly inquired around.
Indeed, it turned out that Mr. Meng managed to find out some information by having others push him around.
It turned out that Meng Jin was also hospitalized.
Mr. Meng was breathless upon hearing this, but thankfully the person clarified immediately that Meng Jin just had a head injury and was not in life-threatening danger. After asking in detail about Meng Jin's condition and knowing that he was injured in the disaster area and had returned, Mr. Meng said no more. He went to the wheelchair and quietly looked in once.
His daughter-in-law, who had been missing for over twenty years, was taking care of him.
Meng Jin, this cold son who had never a pleasant expression, in front of this daughter-in-law, was full of smiles, his whole demeanor had changed.
Knowing that his son was alright, Mr. Meng felt relieved, spoke with Meng Jin while Mo Xiaolin was away, and then went back.
That day, Mr. Meng heard that Mo Siyu also came and wanted to see his grandson. But just as he arrived outside the hospital room, he heard the happy laughter coming from inside.
Even separated by the door of the hospital room, even without seeing, listening to these sounds made the atmosphere feel exceptionally good, exceptionally desirable.
Mr. Meng sat in the wheelchair, his face filled with loss and gloom.
His grandson, his own flesh and blood!
Every time Mr. Meng thought of Mo Siyu as his own flesh and blood, carrying the Meng family's bloodline, he couldn't help but feel a surge of pride from the bottom of his heart.
He had long gone through Mo Siyu's information. After the affair with Meng Yanzhi, Mr. Meng longed for this grandson to be his own, but he had not expected his wish to really come true. However, his grandson was not close to him.
"Let's go," said Mr. Meng softly, not wishing to disturb the people in the hospital room.
Back in the hospital room, Mr. Meng closed his eyes, still imagining the scene inside just now.
Meng Jin and his wife, along with Mo Siyu and his little fiancée, Mo Siyu calling out to mom and dad, how Mr. Meng wished he could hear him call out 'Grandpa'.
A long sigh echoed from the hospital room, he sat down facing the distance, his silhouette lonely and forlorn.
Qin Anyu and Chu Hong stayed in the hospital for a week before being discharged. The two, after getting married, had such a good relationship that it... inevitably gave people goosebumps.
Tang Yue just felt they were being overly affectionate.
At this moment, Tang Yue had completely forgotten that privately, she and Mo Siyu were just as affectionate.
Meng Jin recovered quickly from his injury and was discharged from the hospital. He returned to Jianan Prefecture.
As for Old Master Meng, he has been staying in the hospital all along, partly for the convenience of being looked after by the medical staff, and partly because he does not wish to return to the desolate Meng Family mansion.
Without Meng Jin around, no matter how nice the Meng Family home is, it's just an old man living there.
It's better to stay in the hospital, at least the daily soup delivered by his daughter-in-law is something he can count on.
At the same time, Meng Jin would visit the hospital every day, or every other day.
This made Mr. Meng very satisfied; even though his grandson didn't come, his grandson's mother did, and as long as he behaved well, he would still be able to see his grandson in the future.
Mr. Meng truly repented this time.
June is nearly over, and the summer vacation at Jinghua University has also arrived.
Tang Yue had called long ago to say she wouldn't be returning, and asked Tang Jun and the others to come to Jing City when they had their summer break.
Taking advantage of their absence, Tang Yue cooked delicious food for Mo Siyu at the motor pool every two or three days.
Tang Yue's good reputation was now firmly established; not only was she skilled in cooking, she was also beautiful and gentle, and most importantly, a student at Jinghua University, which made many people envious of Brother Mo.
At the same time, they secretly wondered, with Brother Mo's icy demeanor, how did he manage to woo such a gorgeous, fairy-like little sister-in-law?
Mo Siyu didn't care what those guys thought; he doted on Tang Yue and couldn't withstand the thick-skinned ones who often came to freeload meals.
Tang Yue would not refuse them either; even though a single meal wouldn't change much, a good reputation was also very important.
Even though they were not yet married, Tang Yue was still very willing to be a virtuous and good wife.
"Xiao Yue sister, you're back!" Lian Qingyang excitedly pulled Tang Yue and started moving things into the house.
"Wait a second, Qingyang, what are you doing?"
Tang Yue quickly stopped Lian Qingyang's actions, looking at all the boxes and boxes of things, and got the feeling that Lian Qingyang was planning to move in.
"These are gifts from dad for you," Lian Qingyang said happily, stacking all the boxes in the yard, and added, "Dad's just come back from abroad and brought you lots of gifts."
"I won't accept them."
As soon as Tang Yue heard that the gifts were from Lian He, she decided not to take them.
Although she hadn't seen what was inside, considering the gifts were from abroad and with Lian He's status, how could they be ordinary items?
Since she had no intention of recognizing her father, there was no need to accept these things.
"Nope." Lian Qingyang stood in front of Tang Yue, stubborn and earnest, "Sister Xiao Yue, I promised my dad, and I guarantee you'll accept them."
His eyes shimmered, not only had he promised Tang Yue would accept the gifts, but he had also promised Lian He to coax Tang Yue out for a meal.
"What else did you promise?" Tang Yue asked Lian Qingyang helplessly.
Lian Qingyang was the kind who, if you give an inch, he'd take a mile, always agreeing to all sorts of strange things for her, yet seeing those clear and bright eyes, Tang Yue could hardly refuse Lian Qingyang's pleading. Sometimes Tang Yue felt Lian Qingyang should have been a girl, with his talent for acting coquettishly was absolutely outstanding.
Lian Qingyang chuckled 'heh heh', cleared his throat, and said, "Sister Xiao Yue, I also promised dad that we could have dinner together tonight."
Facing Tang Yue's disapproving gaze, Lian Qingyang hurriedly said, "Sister Xiao Yue, don't get angry, it'll just be me, my dad, and my mom won't be there."
"Sister Xiao Yue, please take pity on me," Lian Qingyang put on a pitiful look, rubbing his eyes vigorously until they turned red.
