Xie Xuning stood at the door and said to Xie Qian, “Because of you, she underwent several plastic surgeries after the accident. Are you surprised that Xie Yi is Ye Linlang? Well, there is one more thing I think you should know: I am going to apply for retirement.”
Xie Xuning had thought clearly that he was willing to give up everything at present to accompany Ye Linlang if her condition had not gotten better.
Wherever she was, he would be right there.
When she was sick, he would stay with her.
“How dare you!”
Xie Qian sat up in a hurry when he heard Xie Xuning say so.
Was he going to retire?
He wasn’t even fifty years old yet!
“What am I afraid of? I am not a child. Do I still need your permission to make these kinds of decisions?” Xie Xuning laughed at himself. He once regarded all this as his faith. However, he knew that Ye Linlang was his only faith now. He could give up everything for his faith. He said, “I only want her for the rest of my life.”
Xie Qian pursed his lips and glared at Xie Xuning.
“Are you going to kill me?”
Xie Xuning laughed at himself and said, “You’re already killing me and Linlang.”
Xie Qian took a step back. He couldn’t let his son retire. Was it easy for him to get to where he was now, one step at a time?
If he was going to retire now, wouldn’t he just be throwing away everything he’s worked hard for?
“Xuning, if you want to marry her, then go ahead. Don’t talk about retirement. You are not alone, you represent the Xies.”
Xie Xuning sneered at himself, “Do I marry her now? Will she marry me? Let me ask you one last thing, what did you do to Linlang in the past?”
Xie Qian said anxiously, “I just asked the secretary to give her the check. I really didn’t know that she had a baby…”
“That’s all?” Xie Xuning didn’t believe him.
If he simply threw a check to her, how could Linlang be so afraid of him?
Unfortunately, Lu Jijun was dead. Otherwise, he would have known exactly what Lu Jijun did back then if he had found him.
Xie Qian nodded, “Yes.”
One wrong step could ruin everything in the future.
Of course, if he had known that Ye Linlang and Xie Xuning had such strong feelings for each other, why would he have broken up the affectionate couple?
Why didn’t he just say yes?
Now…
His son was gone.
His granddaughter was gone.
He looked like a lonely man.
“I am going to hand in the application soon.”
This was the conclusion that Xie Xuning came to after thinking about it for a while.
He had thought clearly that she was the only thing that mattered to him for the rest of his life.
Life was too short, and they had already lost so much time together.
Now, he wouldn’t miss it anymore.
As long as he had her, it didn’t matter if he gave up everything.
When Xie Xuning and Li Qingcang came out of the ward, Li Qingcang asked, “Uncle, have you really thought about it?”
If Xie Xuning was going to retire or resign now, the Empire would be greatly affected.
“Yes, I have.”
Xie Xuning had thought about it. He loved Ye Linlang. If Ye Linlang kept resisting him, or she insisted on leaving…
Shi Han would naturally take Ye Linlang away…
What about him?
He wouldn’t have the heart to harm her a bit.
Then, the only thing he could do was follow her.
If she wanted to be in China, he would be there with her.
If she was going abroad, he would go with her.
If she wanted to be a doctor without borders, he would be her bodyguard.
“Have you talked to Tianxin yet? Uncle, this is a very important matter. I think you should talk to Tianxin about it.”
Li Qingcang could understand how Xie Xuning felt. However, once Xie Xuning decided on something, it would be no less than an earthquake.
