Chapter 1828: We Will Support You from Behind
“Alright. Uncle, you don’t have to worry about Old master Qu now. I’ll inform the hospital later and we’ll go in to visit him at a suitable time. Mom, you don’t have to worry.”
Pei Ge sat opposite Qu Xiujie and Zhang Manhua. Seeing one with a cold face and the other with a nervous expression, she felt uneasy about Old master Qu’s hospitalization.
It was not easy for her to convince herself to do this. If not for Zhang Manhua’s insistence, Pei Ge would have already let Old master Qu go. Whether he lived or died had nothing to do with her. What he ended up like really had nothing to do with her.
However, Pei Ge miscalculated this time. Not only was it related, but Old master Qu was also hospitalized.
It was less than a week away from his birthday banquet.
“Alright. You go ahead and do it; we’ll support you from behind.”
Qu Xiujie’s tone was stable. Since he was prepared to pull Old master Qu back, he naturally had to make some sacrifices. He could not possibly wait until the end for Pei Ge’s results.
“Yes, I understand.”
Pei Ge nodded and looked into her mother’s eyes. “Mom, when I return to the Ji family, can you and uncle wait for my news at home?”
“Okay. Go back to the Ji family and ask Charlie to send you back. At this time, I’m really worried about you going back alone.”
“I’m not a child, it’s alright. I’m an adult, why should I be afraid?”
Pei Ge laughed softly. She was indeed fine. Having lived in the capital for so long, she knew which roads were unsafe for her to go back alone. She also knew that Ji Ziming had arranged for bodyguards to follow her in the dark and protect her safety.
“I don’t care. I’m just worried about you. If you really want to go back, then I’ll go back with you.”
Zhang Manhua was worried and felt even more upset when she knew that Old lady Qu could be so cruel to Old master Qu. What kind of life had this man been living by this woman’s side for so many years? How many of these illnesses had been hidden by the doctors she bribed?
Zhang Manhua’s heart ached but she was the one who could not say it.
“Mom, you don’t have to send me back. Let Uncle send me back. You can wait for my news in the house.”
Pei Ge could not change his mind and could only make a compromise first. She thought that if Qu Xiujie sent her back to the Ji family, she could discuss with Ji Ziming about the next step.
“Alright, let your uncle send you back. I’ll wait for your news at home.”
Zhang Manhua nodded. It was fine as long as Pei Ge was safe and sound. She only cared about the lives of those she cared about, and the rest had nothing to do with her.
However, this time, Zhang Manhua’s concern for Old master Qu was exceptionally warm. She could not believe it herself. Perhaps, it was the blood in her bones, or perhaps it was her compassion. All these years, she had never hated anyone so much.
Perhaps all of this was quietly happening and it had to continue like this.
No one could say how capable he was to change all of this. However, in Zhang Manhua’s heart, no matter what, Old master Qu had once brought her warmth and this warmth was the power that supported her to come to this world.
Love became exceptionally insignificant in the face of kinship. At this moment, Zhang Manhua actually wished that she could stay by Old master Qu’s side. As long as he could recover, she would be able to accept all kinds of dangers and grievances.
It turned out that he was much braver than he had imagined.
“Uncle, send me home later. I’ll go upstairs to my room to get something.”
Pei Ge stood up. Right now, she desperately needed something from Ji Ziming to prove something. No matter what the outcome was, Pei Ge had to ensure that the people she cared about would not be harmed in the slightest. This was what she had to do first and what she had to do now.
“Alright, go upstairs and get your things. I’ll go to the courtyard to start the car now. I’ll wait for you at the entrance.”
Qu Xiujie stood up as well. He was taller than Pei Ge by more than half a head.
“Okay.”
Pei Ge nodded and was about to head upstairs when Zhang Manhua stopped her. “Ge Ge, will you really save Old master Qu?”
Zhang Manhua was not sure. Pei Ge and Qu Xiujie were the same type of people, so how could they change their original plans so quickly and even have their own thoughts?
“Mother, I’ll save him. Not only will I save him, I’ll also capture that woman and the person who hurt you. I’ll make them suffer the punishment they deserve. Only then will we be able to live a calm life. Don’t worry, I’ll think of a way to make that woman reveal how much terrible things she did.”
Pei Ge was certain that she really wanted Old lady Qu to remove her fake mask.
If a person pretended to be someone for too long, they would really think that they were that kind of person. That would be too scary.
“Ge Ge, that person is your grandfather, after all.”
Zhang Manhua’s voice trembled. She had already thought of a hundred reasons why Pei Ge would not save Old master Qu, but she did not expect her to be unable to forget the hurt she had suffered in her heart.
The damage would always be there, and the scars would not disappear forever. However, the people who had it would continue to stay strong and optimistic in this cold world.
Because everyone is a vivid individual.
“It doesn’t matter whether he’s my grandfather or not. The person I want to deal with is Old lady Qu. I just need to understand this point.”
Pei Ge smiled. Old master Qu had once abandoned Zhang Manhua and her granny for Old lady Qu. After so many years, Old lady Qu had been the mistress of the Qu family for a long time. It was time to return her.
“Ge Ge, what I want isn’t...”
“Mother, I know what you’re going to say. Don’t worry, I won’t let you get hurt at all. Just trust me.”
Pei Ge patted her mother’s hand lightly and said softly, “I just want to find the reason for those who have hurt us. I want to ask her why she wants to destroy a family like this. Are those so-called money and power so tempting? I don’t believe it and I don’t want to believe it.”
