Chapter 2227 Unable to Contact Him
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xiao Mo knew about Nan Xun’s considerations.
He also knew that she had him in her heart, but because of her status as a woman, she could not interact with him too much.
Xiao Mo did not force her to stay and make things difficult for her. He nodded. “I’ll leave first. If you need anything, you can call me anytime.”
“If my Sister Xun needs it, she will contact Handsome Brother-in-law.”
Xiao Mo did not mind his cousin’s frankness. He greeted his aunt politely and left the ward.
After Xiao Mo left, his aunt glared at her cousin. “Mr Xiao is a good person. He will be embarrassed if you say that.”
The cousin pouted and blinked her big eyes. “I don’t care. I just like Handsome Brother-in-law.”
Nan Xun looked at her cousin who had only met once but kept calling him handsome brother-in-law and asked teasingly, “Did he give you something good? Why are you protecting him?”
“No, I just think he’s handsome.”
An eight-year-old girl already had her own aesthetic standards. However, Tang Mo was indeed as his cousin had said, very handsome and wild.
Nan Xun’s head was still a little uncomfortable and she fell asleep after talking to her aunt and cousin for a while.
When she received Mrs Tang’s call, it was already afternoon.
After Nan Xun returned to her hometown, Mrs Tang went to the temple to pray. When she returned to the city this afternoon, she learned that there had been an earthquake in Yuxi Town. She was worried about Nan
Xun and hurriedly called to ask.
“Mom, I’m fine. I’ll be back in the capital in two days. You don’t have to worry.”
Hearing this, Mrs Tang was relieved. “How’s your family?”
“They’re all good. They like the gifts Mom gave them very much.”
“It’s good that you like them. If you have time, bring them over to our house.”
“Okay.”
After the call with Nan Xun, Mrs Tang called Tang Mo.
Did that brat see the news? If he did, he would go to Yuxi Town, right?
After calling, her phone was turned off.
Mrs Tang frowned and scolded him.
Back at the Tang family, Mrs Tang asked the butler, “Has Old Master been well the past two days?”
The butler nodded. “Everything is fine.”
“lL asked for an amulet for the Old Master. I’ll go in and see him now.”
“Old Master said an hour ago that he wanted to rest and asked us not to disturb him.”
Mrs Tang nodded. “Then I’ll give it to him later.”
Mrs Tang went upstairs to take a bath and sleep. When it was time for dinner, she would bring dinner to the Old Master personally.
After knocking a few times, Mrs Tang pushed the door open.
The Old Master lay on the bed and did not move. Mrs Tang called softly, “Dad, it’s time for dinner.”
The Old Master’s health was getting worse by the day. During this period, he sent food to his room.
The Old Master did not respond.
Mrs Tang put the food on the cabinet and walked to the bed, calling out again, “Dad.”
The Old Master still did not respond.
Mrs Tang realized that something was wrong and poked her nose at the Old Master.
Her breathing was weak.
Mrs Tang’s pupils constricted and she took a few steps back. Then, she let out a sorrowful cry. “Dad!”
Outside the emergency room.
The Old Master had already been pushed in.
Mrs Tang stood outside the operating room, pacing around anxiously.
Knowing that the Old Master had entered the emergency room, Tang Xun came over. He walked in front of Mrs Tang and glared at her with sharp eyes. “Isn’t Father’s condition stable recently? Why did he enter the
emergency room?”
Tang Xun and Mrs Tang’s relationship had long been broken. If Old Master Tang had not objected, they would have divorced long ago.
However, although they had not divorced, Tang Xun had not returned to the old residence for a long time.
Mrs Tang had long heard that he lived with the vixen, Liu Xiu, and doted on his illegitimate son, Tang Xu, more than Tang Mo. Especially after Tang Mo’s accident, he started to despise his son for being flawed and went
out to discuss business with Tang Xu.
Mrs Tang swallowed the bitterness in her heart and replied coldly to Tang Xun’s question, “The doctor said long ago that I don’t have much time left. As my eldest son, have you been filial in front of my bed? Now that
I’m in the emergency room, how dare you question me?”
Tang Xun did not look ashamed at all. He snorted. “If you didn’t shamelessly stay in the Tang family, would I not have a home?”
A mocking look appeared in Mrs Tang’s eyes. “If I leave, will you bring that vixen to my door?”
“So what if am?”
Mrs Tang was so angry that she could not speak.
She said with trembling lips, “If I did, 1 would only make Dad angry!”
“Sister, what are you saying? You’re the one who didn’t take good care of Old Master and sent him into the emergency room, not Old Master.” A soft and harmless voice trailed over.
Liu Xiu looked gentle and pleasant. She looked knowledgeable, virtuous, and obedient, but in fact, she was extremely scheming.
All these years, she had been able to trap Tang Xun’s heart firmly. It was enough to see how capable she was.
Of course, Mrs Tang did not see those powerful methods.
For example, when she wheedled and cried, only men would listen to her. She was gentle and obedient… Mrs Tang had been a socialite since she was young and was used to being elegant and noble. She could not put
down her posture and coax men, even if she was beaten and scolded.
“I’m talking to Tang Xun about the Tang family. Why are you interrupting as an outsider?” Mrs Tang looked at Liu Xiu with a cold expression, her eyes filled with contempt. “You can just hide at home if you want to
hide. Do you want to be treated as a street rat? Also, who is your sister?”
Faced with Mrs Tang’s humiliation and contempt, Liu Xiu was not embarrassed at all. She walked to Tang Xun’s side and gently held his arm. “Sister, I didn’t want to come. Master asked me to come. There’s also
Master’s child, Xu’er.”
As Liu Xiu spoke, Tang Xu had already arrived.
Tang Xun looked at Mrs Tang with a dark expression. “Where’s Tang Mo? Grandpa is in the emergency room and we have to let go of everything. Why don’t we see him?”
Before Mrs Tang came to the hospital, she called Tang Mo several times but could not get through.
She could only walk to the side and call Nan Xun.
When Nan Xun received Mrs Tang’s call, she was having dinner.
Knowing that the Old Master had entered the emergency room, the spoon in Nan Xun’s hand fell onto the table.
“Mom, I’ll rush back immediately.”
“I can’t get through to Mo’er. Can you see if you can contact him? Old Master’s situation is critical this time. I’m afraid he won’t be able to survive…”
There was a trace of choking in Mrs Tang’s voice.
“Okay.”
Nan Xun got up from the bed.
Seeing this, her aunt asked with concern, “Xun’er, where are you going? The doctor said that you can only be discharged in two days.”
Nan Xun took her clothes into the washroom and said to her aunt, “Something happened to my husband’s family. I have to rush back immediately. Auntie, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of myself.”.
