Admit it, you're heartbroken

Chapter 145 No regrets

Zhou Yixu didn't reply immediately, but turned to look at Zheng Ziyue, if she didn't want to go, she didn't have to.

Zheng Ziyue just smiled and nodded, pulled him up and followed the visitor to another room.

At this time Zhou Nan was sitting in his study, looking at something in his hands, the guests had already been sent away one after another.

An old housekeeper stood beside him, and briefly told Zhou Nan about the words and deeds of Zhou Yixu and Zheng Ziyue that he had observed today.

Of course, some red-faced details were omitted.

Zhou Nan slowly put down the things in his hands, feeling a little emotional, "It was my negligence for not educating him well these years, and I was worried that he has been like this all the time, how should I explain to Ah Jing, if that girl Zheng can really untie his lock?" Heart knot, the Zhou family's daughter-in-law, she deserves it."

"I think the young master really likes Miss Zheng very much." The old housekeeper also had a kind face.

He watched Zhou Yixu grow up, but for some reason, this child grew up, not to mention, a basket of knots grew in his heart.

Zhou Nan also grew up under the stick. He didn't know how to communicate with his son well. Over time, the relationship between the two became so rigid.

Seeing that it is rare for him to open his heart to others now, the old butler is also quite relieved.

Just as he was talking, there were two knocks on the door.

Before Zhou Nan could answer, the door was pushed open with a bang.

Zhou Yixu walked in leading Zheng Ziyue, and sat in the chair by the window without saying a word, without even looking at Zhou Nan.

He just lowered his head, his moist face was indifferent under the light, indescribably cold and noble.

Seeing him like this, Zheng Ziyue had no choice but to sit down after greeting him.

The old butler also smiled, poured two cups of hot tea for the two, closed the door and walked out.

Zhou Nan just sat there quietly, and the air was filled with an unspeakable sense of oppression.

It was quiet for a few seconds, and no one took the initiative to speak first.

Feeling the heavy atmosphere between father and son, Zheng Ziyue moved her throat unnaturally, and looked at Zhou Nan's study.

His bookshelves, desk, and chairs are all made of dark red wood, which is not cheap just by looking at it.

The bookshelves are full, and many books have traces of being flipped through repeatedly, and they are definitely not simply bought and stored there.

Zhou Nan glanced at his son, and felt his heart flutter when he saw him. How long is this bastard going to get angry with me!
If he keeps doing this, when will I be able to embrace my grandson!

Letting out a muffled breath, Zhou Nan subconsciously reached for the cigarette, thought for a moment with his hand, but held back.

Glancing at Zheng Ziyue, seeing that she seemed a little cramped sitting there quietly, Zhou Nan became angry again, and scolded his son, "Is this how you take care of Zheng Ziyue?"

Zhou Yixu raised his eyes dissatisfied, why do you speak of me?
Then he looked at his little crescent moon, his eyes full of paranoia softened, and he realized that he was immersed in the emotion of anger with Zhou Nan and ignored her.

The pretty lips pursed, "What's the matter?"

This sentence can be regarded as temporarily lowering his head, Zhou Nan sat back and ignored him, "Is Miss Zheng full tonight? There are so many people at the banquet today, so it is inevitable that I can't take good care of it."

Zhou Nan asked with a rare and kind attitude, for fear that his future daughter-in-law would be hungry at home.

"Uncle Zhou, you're welcome, we're full." Zheng Ziyue quietly observed this man who would tremble when he stomped on Shangyang City, his eyes bent into crescents.

"Well, although Yixu is a bit of a jerk in front of me, his character is still reliable. If he treats you badly, just tell me."

Zhou Nan looked at the polite and quiet future daughter-in-law in front of him with satisfaction, and he almost didn't stop to say "see if I don't kill him".

He really wanted to try his best to establish a good image for his son in front of his future daughter-in-law, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't think of any advantages.

I even wanted to scold him a few words!

After finally holding back, I had no choice but to pick up some relatively unsavory words and talk to Zheng girl.

"If you have something to say, just leave if you have nothing to do."

Thinking that Zhou Nan couldn't say anything good, Zhou Yixu frowned coldly, held Zheng Ziyue's hand and was about to leave.

Seeing that his son refused to show any face in front of his future daughter-in-law, Zhou Nan rubbed his temples, and the veins on his forehead burst out, "How long are you going to be stubborn with me!"

Zhou Yixu sneered at the sound, his eyes were full of paranoia, "Since you indulged my mother not to go to the doctor, I am not ready to forgive you."

The air in the study also became heavy.

Zheng Ziyue looked at Zhou Yixu who was on the verge of a sword attack, and held his hand and squeezed it. You promised me that I would have a good talk with Uncle Zhou!

Seeing the worried look on the girl's face, Zhou Yixu let out a breath slowly, forcibly suppressing the emotions in his chest.

Zhou Nan's face was stunned, it really was because of this incident!

In the past five years, Zhou Yixu has become indifferent and paranoid, unwilling to talk to anyone, especially himself.

He thought about many reasons, but this bastard never gave himself a chance to have a good talk with him.

This time it was also thanks to Zheng girl, I just heard it before, but looking at the situation in front of me, she can really cure him.

"How do you know that I didn't show it to Ah Jing?" Zhou Nan sighed leisurely, "She has been soaking in the laboratory all year round, and her body has problems early."

"I specially invited experts from Jingbei Hospital to live in Shangyang City, and consulted with doctors from the People's Hospital. Unfortunately, it was too late to find out."

Zhou Yixu was slightly taken aback when he heard this, when did he hire someone to see his mother?

Sitting there silently searching for memories, a little light suddenly caught in his mind.

It was when I was in the second year of junior high school, my mother often felt dizzy and coughed, and then there was an assistant beside me. Could it be that Zhou Nan invited the doctor from Jingbei Hospital?So early...

And my mother died of illness in the year of my college entrance examination...

In other words, she has struggled with her illness for three full years.

As for why he kept this matter from him, he wanted to know everything with his toes, because he was afraid that he would be worried if he found out.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yixu tightly grasped the armrest of the chair with one hand, his knuckles were frighteningly white.

In fact, Wu Jing showed symptoms of leukemia very early on, but she only thought it was because she was too tired and never paid attention to it.

If Zhou Nan hadn't asked, I'm afraid she would still hold on.

But when it was discovered, her disease was approaching the advanced stage. If she was obedient and cooperated with the treatment, she could still survive for more than ten years.

But she just won't listen!Zhou Nan didn't stop him either!

Zheng Ziyue's hand was held by him, and he felt that his fingers were getting tighter and tighter, and his fingers hurt from being pinched by him.

She gritted her teeth, not allowing herself to hum.

Maybe after their father and son talk today, his knot may be untied a little.

When Zhou Yixu came back to his senses, her pale fingers had already been strangled and turned purple.

He let go of his hand like an electric shock, the paranoia in his eyes dissipated a lot, and he rubbed the girl's little hand distressedly.

"So my mother has been in a physical condition since then, so why do you let her continue to stay in the laboratory?"

In a different environment, with proper maintenance, her body can still hold on.

Zhou Nan took out a cigarette and lit it, took a deep breath, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were clearly visible.

But these wrinkles did not add to his aging, but added a bit of majesty and charm.

"At that time, Ah Jing's research project was reaching a critical stage, and she was indispensable."

"She doesn't want to. She has spent most of her life's research, but the progress has been postponed because of her personal reasons. Yixu, even now, I don't regret the decision I made back then!"
