Chapter 1962: Trust Me
“Medicine was applied to all the wounds on his body. I knew that someone must have saved him, but they weren’t around at the time. Later, Jingzhong was sent to the hospital. He was in a coma in the hospital for three days and three nights. When he woke up, he begged me to hurry and help him find the girl who saved him in the valley. I asked him what the girl’s name was, but he said he didn’t know.
“I sent people to look for her, but the valley was so overgrown with weeds that nothing was found. Later, when Jingzhong could get down from the ground, he immediately went to the valley to look for her. He waited there for half a month, but the girl who had saved him never appeared again. After that, Jingzhong returned to his job. Although he couldn’t stay in the valley all the time, he drew a portrait of the girl and made a copy of it. He asked the Wu family to paste the portrait on almost all the streets and alleys in Haizhou, he spent a lot of money to search for it. However, the girl who saved him was like a stone sinking into the ocean. He couldn’t find her anymore.
“Jingzhong was someone who would never give up. He entrusted his heart to that girl. He told me that if he couldn’t find that girl, he would never ever get married again. Two years later, he went to the orphanage and took Wu Zongxu. It could have been about the fact that this is about volunteer and units descriptions said that it was all because I wanted a grandson.”
Nangong Nuannuan, “...”
Chi Yang, “...”
Sze Lingyun, “...”
It could be said that Wu Jingzhong was a truly good man who was loyal, determined, and filial. Such a good man did not receive a good ending in the end. That was absolutely unjustifiable.
Nangong Nuannuan felt like the reason she came to Sea District not was to treat Wu Pingting but actually to catch her family out.
“Nuannuan, thank you so much for today. If it weren’t for you, our Wu family might have made it through this hurdle.”
“Elder Wu, you’ve already thanked me many times. We met in Jiang District. At the time, when you didn’t even know my grandfather, yet you stood up for us. My grandfather and I have already accepted your favor and treat you as a friend. So, there’s no need to thank me. Uncle Wu was slandered by others. I said that I will only stay in Sea District for three days. If Uncle isn’t released tomorrow, I’ll take action.”
“But... the only other party is the Shi family. Nuannuan, Lieutenant General Chi, this matter involves too much. Otherwise, you would be able discuss it with your family. Many people covet the position of Sea District Governor. The Shi family will not give up this position. If you want to protect Jingzhong, you will definitely have to go against the Shi family. Now that the Shi family has control over the medical association, they’re very influential in the executive hall and the headquarters of military base. I’m afraid that this will bring endless trouble to the two families in the future.”
Nangong Nuannuan recalled the expressions of the people who went to the Shi family’s banquet that day. Nangong Nuan smiled at me sarcastically. There’s nothing to discuss. It’s not a big deal. The Shi family will not make enemies out of Lan Weisong before we collect our drinks. Even if they don’t want to give up their position, they’ll be shocked when they meet me. Moreover, Lan Weisong isn’t even the governor of Sea District to begin with. What right do they have to stare at this piece of cake? If they dare to reach out, I’ll chop off their claws.”
Elder Wu, “...”
......
Wu Jingcheng, “...”
Wu Jingmin, “...”
Wu Pingting: “Wow, Nuannuan, you’re awesome. You’re really worthy of being my idol!”
Wu Zongyang smiled shyly and said, “It’s my turn next!”
Wu Pingting glanced at her brother and said mischievously, “Be careful, or your friends might ask Brother Chi to beat you up!”
Wu Zongyang was afraid that Chi Yang would misunderstand. He quickly waved his hand and said, “Brother Chi, I didn’t mean that. I didn’t mean anything else. I just see Nuannuan as my idol. Trust me!”
