Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian Novel - Chapter 596
Chapter 596: This Time, My Maternal Grandparents Have Stood Up for Us
“Ay, don’t,” Yu Wen said hurriedly. As much as she did have opinions about Luosang, she was still a better choice than Leng Shuangwei. It was like a thorn in her heart. Leng Shuangwei reminded Yu Wen of the hurt her own daughter had suffered. Yu Wen had treated Jiang Qifei like her own daughter when the two of them were the best of friends.
“Bring Luosang over. I won’t be like I was before.” Yu Wen sighed.
“Grandma, don’t forget what you said.” Nian Junting started to smile. “Alright, you should go home. I have to go to the hospital. Grandmother is still there.”
“Go, go.” Murong Cheng waved her hand.
After sending the Murong family off, Nian Junting called Luosang. “My mother has cleared things up already. I will not be marrying Leng Shuangwei, rest assured.”
“That was quick.” Luosang was surprised.
“Yeah, my grandfather had not considered my mother’s feelings when he suggested it at first. Also, my parents have decided to get a divorce,” Nian Junting said. “It’s a good thing. It’s about time they went their separate ways in search of their own happiness. This time, my maternal grandparents have stood up for us.”
Luosang heaved a sigh of relief. It was surprising that his maternal grandparents had stood on her side. After all, they used to not like her. She could not feel happy just yet, however. “Tell me when Leng Shuangwei comes to.”
“I was just about to talk about that. If she doesn’t wake up, I’ll have to stay in the hospital for the next few days.” Nian Junting whispered, “Don’t be jealous then.”
“How long has it been for me to still be jealous? It’s only right,” Luosang said. If not for the fact that Jiang Qifei detested her, Luosang would have wanted to pay Leng Shuangwei a visit at the hospital herself. Unfortunately, she would definitely not have been welcome there.
Leng Shuangwei did not regain consciousness on the second day. The incident between Miao Zheng and Zhong Yi of the Bingyang Group had now been blown up publicly. The pictures and videos of Miao Zheng abusing Zhong Yi in public were all over the internet and had ignited an uproar from the netizens.
Miao Zheng was swiftly taken in for investigation by the police. This caused the Bingyang Group’s stock prices to plummet like a rock. The Bingyang Group immediately held a stockholder’s meeting, making the decision to dismiss Miao Zheng as the CEO and remove him from the board of directors.
Grandma Nian stayed in hospital for three days. Although she did not sustain severe injuries, she was 80 years old. Any slight knock she suffered could have unimaginable consequences. To be on the safe side, the Nian family requested that she stay in hospital for observation for a few days.
On the day that she was discharged, Nian Junting was helping to pack her things when she sat up and said, “I hope Leng Shuangwei comes around soon. This child, it must have been delayed by her mother.”
“It should not be long.” Nian Junting put her clothes into a bag. “Oh yes, Grandma, that night when Shuangwei visited the washroom, did she have something to tell you, or was it purely a coincidence?”
Grandma Nian chuckled. “She was asking me about my atherosclerotic disease. We talked for a bit. It must have been deliberate. After all, your father was there where I was seated. She must have felt awkward coming over directly to me, so she decided to talk to me secretly. After all, I watched her grow up. She must have felt it inappropriate not to speak to me at all.”
Nian Junting nodded.
“It’s a pity that this has happened.” Grandma Nian shook her head. “Actually, she would not have sustained such serious injuries if she had not continued wrestling with the attacker, unlike your Second Aunt, who ran away so quickly. I understand, nonetheless. Who isn’t afraid to die? I’m already so old, why should I burden all you young people, anyway?”
“I think you’ll live up to a hundred at the very least,” Nian Junting mused.
Grandma Nian chuckled. “Although you won’t be able to marry Shuangwei, you must not forget your gratitude to Grandma as a life-saver.”
