Auntie Bao saw that Qin Fangang didn't eat much and didn't seem to be in a good mood. After she tidied up, she made a cup of coffee for Qin Fangang and brought it in.
"Young master." Auntie Bao placed the coffee in front of Qin Fangang and smiled kindly, "Rest early tonight. I see that you've lost some weight recently. You must be busy with work, right?"
"It's alright." Qin Fangang casually replied. After flipping through the last document, he closed the folder and raised his head to look at Auntie Bao, "Are you used to living here?"
"What's there to not be used to? In the past, wherever you and madam stayed, I would stay there to take care of the two of you. Being able to take care of young master, I'm already used to it. "
Qin Fangang nodded his head. He had always been respectful towards this Auntie who had served his mother and him since he was young, so his tone wasn't arrogant, "That's good. During this period of time, I might be living here, so I'll have to trouble Auntie Bao."
Auntie Bao immediately waved her hand, "Young master, you're being too serious. How could there be trouble? It's my fortune to be able to serve young master."
Qin Fangang lit a cigarette and frowned. He took a puff and crossed his legs elegantly. He suddenly got up and pulled Auntie Bao over to the sofa.
Auntie Bao was flattered. Just when she was about to stand up, Qin Fangang moved his hand that was holding the cigarette to the side. He then lifted his trousers and squatted in front of her. His thin lips slightly hooked into a faint smile as he said in a deep voice, "Auntie Bao, there's something that I would like to talk to you about."
"... Young master, what do you want to say? Go ahead and say it. Don't make this old lady feel uncomfortable. This... you can get up first. I'll still stand... "
"Auntie Bao..."
Qin Fangang placed his hand on her shoulder and gestured for her to sit down. He probably felt that it wasn't good to smoke in front of an old lady, so he turned around and put out the cigarette. He then frowned and said, "I've always respected you. You know my temper. If I don't see it clearly, I won't casually take action. If it's something that I want, then I won't care about unimportant external factors. If I want something, then I'll do everything I can to get it. Ever since I was young, the closest people to me were my mother and you. So, I know that the only people in this world who can wholeheartedly care for me are the both of you. I can feel that everything you've said and done is for my own good. However, there are some things that I've already thought about, so I'll definitely do it without hesitation. "
...
Actually, what he said was very obvious.
What he wanted was Leng Xinyu.
What he wanted was to get her.
Among all the words that he said to her, there was only one meaning left — she just needed to watch. There was no need for her to do or say anything else.
Auntie Bao had already guessed that her young master had feelings for Leng Xinyu. But when she heard him express his stance in such a serious manner, she was still shocked.
Her expression froze and she couldn't help but say, "... Young master, you... you're talking about Lady Lu."
"In the future, she will come here again. During this period, she can't return to the Lu family. So, I asked you to come over and take care of her because I trust you. So, Auntie Bao, don't call her Lady Lu anymore. "
"... Young master, you... you really don't know who she is? She's your younger brother's wife... "His firm attitude made Auntie Bao a little flustered. She shook her head and waved her hands."... Young master, you mustn't be muddle-headed. In this world, what kind of woman doesn't exist? Young master... if Madam finds out about this, she will definitely go crazy! Young master, please listen to my advice. It's really... "
"Don't tell my mother for the time being," Qin Fangang said with a frown. But his voice carried a hint of warning.
"... Young master, this matter... this matter can't be hidden forever!"
"Don't say anymore." Qin Fangang waved his hand. His thin lips were pursed tightly, and a trace of coldness flashed past his exquisite features. When he spoke again, his tone was unquestionable. "Auntie Bao, this is my own matter. I know what I'm doing and what I'm doing. I hope you can trust me and stand on my side. As for my mother, you can just reply to her according to what I said. "
He turned around and picked up his coat that was hanging on the clothes rack. "I'm going out for a while. Rest early."
...
Auntie Bao's face was full of worry as she watched the tall and straight figure walk out of the study. Young master, is he serious? But... how can this be? There are so many women in the world. Which one of them isn't easy to pick? Which young master is not worthy of her? With his status and intelligence, it can only be that other women are not worthy of him. But why does it have to be that Leng Xinyu?
...
Should she really keep quiet about this matter? Or should she tell Madam who is far away in England?
Xin Yu got out of the car and raised her wrist to look at the time. It was 9: 30 pm.
The hospital was probably closed, but there was really no way to go out tonight. Mu Chenchu was not in City D at the moment, and his mobile phone could not be contacted. He probably did not bring his mobile phone with him. She also did not have the keys to her apartment and did not dare to go back to the Lu residence. Her wallet was with her, but there was not much money in it. She could not squander it casually now. Instead of staying in a hotel, she might as well... come to the hospital to accompany her father.
In the past, when she was in England, she would fly back once a year to visit Leng Dongming. At that time, she did not go back to the Lu residence and would spend the night in the hospital.
Leng Dongming's status was special, so it was easy for Xin Yu to find a ward for him to spend the night in.
When she entered the hospital, the guard recognized her and let her in very quickly.
At this time, the attending doctor had already gotten off work. The nurse was taking care of Leng Dongming, probably to let him take a shower. Even though he was an old man, he still looked childish and seemed unwilling to take a shower. The two of them stood at the entrance of the bathroom facing each other. The nurse knew about Leng Dongming's condition and did not dare to agitate him. Hence, she was very patient and was coaxing him nicely.
"Mr. Leng, if you don't take a shower, you can't go out for a walk tomorrow. You will stink all over. If you go out, people will dislike the smell on you."
"..."
"Let me help you take a shower, okay? Aren't I the one taking care of you every day? Why are you throwing a tantrum with me today? "
"..."
"Then tell me, what do you want in order for you to take a shower? I will help you find it, okay? "
"..."
"Mr. Leng, you..."
"I want Nannan. I miss my Nannan..."
The nurse was stunned for a moment and did not react for a moment. What did Leng Dongming mean when he said "Nannan"?
In fact, it was a colloquial language used by Southerners. Leng Dongming was not a native of City D. Before he married Xin Yu's mother, he had always lived in City A, a small city in the south. After Xin Yu was born, Leng Dongming liked to call her "Nannan". It was a very affectionate way a father would address his daughter. It meant "baby".
Xin Yu understood, but the nurse did not.
Xin Yu stood at the corner of the long corridor, her fingers tightly grasping the wall. Her eyes were already wet, and she felt as if something was pricking her heart. It was very painful.
How many years had it been?
It had been too long since she heard her father call her 'Nannan' so intimately. She thought that he had already forgotten about it, but in fact, he still remembered it. A surge of emotions surged up from her throat. Xinyu couldn't hold it in and coughed. The nurse on the other end turned around and saw her.
"Hey, Lady Lu, you're here..."
Xin Yu quickly calmed herself down and walked out from the corner. "I'm here to accompany my father tonight. Let me take care of him."
The nurse recalled the time when Leng Dongming suddenly went crazy and almost strangled Xin Yu to death. She still had lingering fears and hesitated for a moment. "... Well, actually, Mr. Leng's mood has not been very stable recently. If you want to take care of him, it will be a little dangerous..."
"It's okay. If there's any problem, I'll call you immediately."
The nurse wanted to say something else, but Leng Dongming looked as if he had discovered a new continent. As soon as he saw Xin Yu, he immediately ran over and hugged her. "Nannan, my Nannan is really here. Dad missed you so much. Why didn't you come to see Dad for so long? Dad bought you a present, and your mom even made your favorite dishes for you today. "
...
Xin Yu's eyes were a little wet. She reached out and grabbed her father's hand, and they walked towards the bathroom. "Didn't you teach me that before? You have to wash your hands before eating. Dad, let's wash our bodies first before we eat. "
Leng Dongming grabbed Xin Yu with a face full of excitement. He did not seem to have any objections to whatever she said. "Okay, I'll listen to Nannan!"
Finally, she pulled Leng Dongming into the bathroom. Although Xin Yu was a daughter, it was not appropriate for her to take off her father's clothes to help him bathe. So, under the nurse's suggestion, Xin Yu personally fetched some water for Leng Dongming to wipe his body and help him change his clothes. Although Leng Dongming was crazy and delirious, his movements were still very nimble. When Xin Yu helped him change his clothes, he even helped to button them himself.
When they exited the bathroom, the nurse had already prepared the meal. Xin Yu personally fed him.
As Leng Dongming ate, he told her about his childhood. Xin Yu realized that although her father was delirious, he actually remembered most of the things that happened to him when he was young. When he talked about it, she felt that her father remembered every scene very clearly. She was a little sad. All these years, he had been locked up here. Did he rely on these memories to persist?
Did he know that he had been crazy for five years?
...
"... After that day, you said you were going to school. There was a tutor's class and you didn't want to miss it. In the end, after you left, your mother also disappeared."
Xin Yu sat by the bed and poured a glass of water for Leng Dongming. Suddenly, she heard Leng Dongming say something out of the blue. She stopped pouring the water, furrowed her brows, and instinctively looked at her father.
Leng Dongming's expression was a little distant. Xin Yu's heart trembled slightly. She only felt that at this moment, her father's eyes were so calm. It was as if he had sunk into a memory. His entire person was also sober. He did not look like a mental patient who had been crazy for five years.
