Chapter 27: Resolved

After listening to Chen Xi's narration, Ning Qiu Tong was slightly shocked.

To be honest, her impression of him was not bad.

Abandoning the previous misunderstandings, she could tell from these few interactions that Chen Xi should be a mature and cool-headed man.

She completely did not think that the mature man bringing up a young child would be able to seriously injure someone in a fit of fury, even endangering the victim's life.

Hence, she could guess how infuriated he was at that time…

Initially, Ning Qiu Tong suggested to compensate the victim with money and establish a deal.

After all, this was the most direct and effective method.

However, upon discovering the victim's identity, she immediately dismissed the thought of it.

Zhong Hai was large but the circle was small.

Ning Qiu Tong recognized Zhao Yuan and was extremely familiar with Yuan Lang group. She even had a business deal with that group.

Zhao Yuan's reputation was not very good. If Ning Qiu Tong was the most outstanding representative among the rich second generation heirs, then Zhao Yuan was evidently the most incompetent representative.

Since the victim's identity was special, Ning Qiu Tong did not dare to promise Chen Xi anything.

After ending the call, she immediately went up to find Ning Zhong Guo.

Ning Zhong Guo had been discharged from the hospital.

Due to the removal of the decayed parts of his lungs and with the prompt consumption of the pill, his condition improved after 2 days.

Even professor Xie was clicking his tongue in wonder after conducting another detailed checkup for Ning Zhong Guo.

Ning Zhong Guo wasn't fond of the atmosphere within the hospital and despite professor Xie's futile advice to stay, he could only discharge him under Ning Zhong Guo's insistent request.

His illness had been effectively contained and as long as he took his medication on time and prevent any wound infection, there won't be any major issues.

After all, the human body is not made of machinery and if the situation is not dire, then it's best to avoid surgery.

When Ning Qiu Tong entered Ning Zhong Guo's room, he was silently reading on the bed.

When Ning Zhong Guo saw Ning Qiu Tong's anxious face, he immediately laughed and asked, "What happened? Chen Xi called you?"

"He also called you?" Ning Qiu Tong responded with suspicion.

"I guessed," Ning Qiu Tong shook his head and said mysteriously.

"Dad!"

Looking at his carefree appearance, Ning Qiu Tong could not help but stomped her feet and complained, "If Chen Xi is arrested, then no one else will able to cure you!"

"Look at you, acting so anxious. Is it because of what happened last night?"

"You know what happened?"

"Of course, your father is able to see clearly. It was on television just now…"

Ning Qiu Tong poured Ning Zhong Guo a glass of water and passed it to him. She said in a serious tone, "Dad, stop teasing me. Now is not the time for jokes."

Ning Zhong Guo drank a mouth of water and smiled, "I received a call this morning. The one injured is Zhao Yuan, right?"

"En, I heard that his injury is very severe. He has not even left the danger period yet…"

"Did you not ask him how he injured Zhao Yuan?"

"Ah?"

Ning Qiu Tong was astounded. She did not understand why Ning Zhong Guo's focus would be here.

When he saw that his daughter was at a loss, Ning Zhong Guo smiled and passed her the glass of water. Next, he calmly said, "Don't fret. Old Zhao and I are old friends. He has 2 sons, the younger one is a disappointment, it's also a good thing that he was put in place…"

Saying up till here, Ning Zhong Guo paused for a while before giving her a glance and continued, "Qiu Tong, since Chen Xi has already promised you to save your father again, the hatred between you two has been dispelled already, right?"

"Eh, I guess so…"

Ning Qiu Tong's expression was a bit strange.

After hearing Ning Zhong Guo's question, a faint shade of red surfaced on her face which instantly spread to her ears.

Ning Zhong Guo thought that after knowing Chen Xi wasn't a swindler, Ning Qiu Tong felt embarrassed for herself.

How would he know that the reason why Chen Xi would not mind the past grievances was due to his daughter's pleas and begs…

"Since Chen Xi has chosen to disregard your previous actions, then from today onwards, Chen Xi is a distinguished guest of our Ning family. You have to build a good relationship with him in the future, do you understand?"

"En."

"Go on, give Chen Xi a call. Tell him everything has been resolved."

Ning Qiu Tong nodded her head and left the room.

Walking along the corridor, the memory from yesterday night surfaced.

'All of my reputation and name are gone…I have to warn him not to say it out!'

When she thought back to her kneeling in front of Chen Xi, she instantly felt indescribably indignant.

After Ning Qiu Tong left, Ning Zhong Guo placed down the book and took the documents that were placed on the bedside cabinet with much difficulty.

Looking at the documents, he murmured to himself, "Missing for 5 years?"

… … …

Zhong Hai People hospital. ICU.

Zhao Yuan lay on the hospital bed with an oxygen mask attached. He had not woken up since yesterday night.

A 30 to 40-year-old rich lady stood by his bedside.

The rich lady looked at her unconscious son and throbs of pain could be felt in her heart.

At this time, the door of the hospital ward opened.

A man dressed in a suit walked in, he was roughly 30 years old. He lowered his voice as he reported something to her.

After listening to the man's report, the rich lady suddenly stood up and with an expression of disbelief, she sternly asked, "What? Resolve?"

"Yes, the boss said that he and Old Ning have cooperated several times together and this time around, Old Ning has brought forth a 100 million¥ deal as an apology, hence, he has no way to reject…"

"NO WAY to reject?!"

The woman was incensed, she waved her arms in the air and pointed at the unconscious Zhao Yuan while yelling, "His son was beaten up so badly and now he is still in a coma. Can a 100 million¥ deal buy his son's life?"

The man did not dare to answer as he lowered his head and stood at the side.

"That old bastard didn't actually regard Yuan 'er as his biological son…"

The lady's chest rose up and down, it seemed like she was truly infuriated.

After ranting, the lady slightly controlled her emotions and coldly said, "You go back and tell Zhao Yi Lang if the father won't care about his son's life, then the mother will. He won't chase after this matter, but I will!"

Just when her words ended, another person walked in.

That person had some resemblance to Zhao Yuan, albeit a bit older.

"Second mom, what's all this temper about?"

After seeing the man that spoke, her face became darker and unhappily said, "Why are you here?"

"I heard my younger brother is hospitalized. As the older brother, of course, I have to visit him."

The newcomer was Zhao Yuan older brother, Zhao Chen; Born from the same father but different mother.

The lady did not reply to him and stared at him coldly.

Seeing that, Zhao Chen shrugged his shoulders and continued, "Second mom, some things are not as easy as you think. So you just take care of younger brother these few days. As for other matters, you don't have to worry.”
