Mr Gu's First Doting Marriage - Chapter 538
Chapter 538: Chapter 539: She misunderstood Gu Qichen…
Xia Yangyang suddenly exclaimed, “Grandma, your hand is trembling. What’s going on? Why didn’t you tell me?”
Grandma replied, “It’s an old ailment. Why should I tell you and cause you unnecessary worry when you’re busy with work?”
At this time, several doctors in white gowns walked by.
Grandma sighed, “There’s nothing wrong with me. These people come to examine me every day. I’m sure they’ll diagnose me with a disease even if I’m not sick.”
Xia Yangyang hurried over, “What’s wrong with my grandma?”
The doctors took a brief glance at Xia Yangyang.
Seeing the old woman’s attitude towards this young girl, they finally spoke, “Early-stage Alzheimer’s disease. It’s not severe right now. We need to prevent it from worsening. We will do our best.”
Xia Yangyang felt like a bolt had hit her from the blue.
She turned to look at her grandma.
Her grandmother turned around and continued watering the vegetables in the small courtyard.
Xia Yangyang knew about Alzheimer’s disease, commonly known as senile dementia.
She never thought that her grandmother would be struck by such a disease.
Xia Yangyang felt a chill in her heart.
She turned around and asked, “Did Mr. Gu arrange for you to take care of my grandma here?”
The leading doctor said, “Mr. Gu is very concerned about the old lady’s illness. He has used the best medical methods, and we are monitoring her condition daily. Fortunately, it was detected relatively early, so it can still be effectively controlled now.”
Xia Yangyang did not take her grandmother away from the nursing home.
Instead, she persuaded her grandmother to stay here for a few more days.
When she left, Xia Yangyang felt complicated inside.
Once she got in the car, Xia Yangyang just wanted to cry her eyes out.
It turned out that she had misunderstood Gu Qichen.
He never used grandma as a weapon to threaten her, nor did he ever want to hurt her.
On the contrary, Gu Qichen had found the best medical team to treat her grandmother.
Even fearing that her grandmother would not be accustomed to living here, he brought all the lambs and poultry that her grandma had raised at her old home.
To get such a high-end international nursing home to accept these things must have required considerable effort and resources.
Xia Yangyang did not know why Gu Qichen would do this.
Didn’t he wish that she was dead?
Xia Yangyang felt extremely upset.
In the afternoon, Xia Yangyang booked a flight to Beijing.
Xiao Wu had already given her a specific address.
Xia Yangyang must find Ma Jianguo and clarify some things about the past.
Finding him was relatively smooth.
Ma Jianguo still had the habit of walking his dog after meals.
In the evening, after dinner, Ma Jianguo went out for a walk with his dog.
Xia Yangyang directly approached him, “Secretary Ma, may I have a word with you?”
Ma Jianguo was very surprised.
He had been in prison for fifteen years, and when he came out, society had completely changed.
In Feng City’s government district, there were still people who knew about his past.
But here was Beijing.
That someone knew about his past identity here was quite surprising.
Seeing the girl, he assumed she must have come prepared.
Ma Jianguo looked at Xia Yangyang, “Who are you?”
Xia Yangyang cut to the chase, “I am the daughter of Tan Zhen. You were sentenced to prison for taking huge bribes. You should still remember the name Tan Zhen.”
Ma Jianguo’s face changed instantly, “Didn’t Tan Zhen commit suicide after the exposure? I have already spent fifteen years in jail. All the past has been turned over. What are you trying to do?”
“Tan Zhen was my mother, but I have never believed that she would bribe an official and embezzle charity funds. So all these years, I never gave up investigating. According to the news reports back then, 20 million of the Weiyang Charity Fund were embezzled, half of which appeared in my mother’s account, and half was assumed to be a bribe to you. I just want to know what exactly happened back then?”
