Chapter 1353 I'll Give You An Answer

"Brother Danhong, how can you treat me like this?" asked Lin Qiao. "Don't forget that I'm friends with Lanhua! What are you gonna tell her after treating me like this?"

"This is my hospital, I can do whatever I want," replied Gou Danhong. "You can tell Lanhua whatever you want as well. But even she can't change my decision. You should be glad that I'm the one doing it. Because this hospital is as much of Chenyan as it is of mine. She also has the right to make you disappear from here if she wants to and if she hasn't done that yet, it only shows that she has been treating you very nicely until now but you clearly don't appreciate it at all."

"I didn't say anything wrong!" yelled Lin Qiao. "You niece is a curse! You should also stay away from her. Why do you think Lanhua always doesn't want her to come over to your place? It's because she also knows what kind of bad luck this woman is."

Xia Hao also walked over and tried to stop the security as he said, "Uncle Hong, my mother is just worried about Dad and might have said something she shouldn't have. Please, let it slide this once."

Gou Danhong had no reaction when he heard his pleading. His eyes were on Xia Zhao as if waiting to see his response and his lips curled up a little when he realized that Xia Zhao had no such intention at all.

"Brother," Xia Hao turned to Xia Zhao too. "Say something."

"Your mother said so much that she has left me with no words now," replied Xia Zhao. "Don't expect too much from me. Rather than wasting time here, you should go and see Dad. He is awake now."

Before Mu Chenyan could say anything, Gou Danhong held up his hand. "Chenyan, don't say anything to me right now. I'm sorry!"

"For what?"

"For not knowing what your aunt had been thinking about you. I always knew that she had some opinion towards you but I never thought her opinion would be so strong. I'm genuinely sorry for that."

"Why are you being so serious about it? I'm alright."

"You might be but I am not," replied Gou Danhong. "I'll give you an answer for this."

"Uncle," Mu Chenyan held him back. "You're old so is she now. I don't think there is a point in digging up old matters. I don't want you to do anything. I didn't suffer any injustice in life. Do I look like I'd swallow it if I had been subjected to any injustice?"

Gou Danhong stared at her in silence, not knowing how to face her. In fact, he had long been afraid to face her. He always felt guilty towards his own niece. He couldn't bring her home to raise her because his wife didn't want that. And in the end, someone with no blood relation took his niece in and raised her better than he ever could. He didn't know how was he supposed to face his sister in the underground. What would he tell her that he couldn't even do anything for her one and only daughter?

And now he was being told that his wife didn't just dislike his niece but practically hated her. Why else would she speak such nonsense about her with a stranger? He had only one niece in this world and even she was like a thorn to his wife. Did he really do a mistake in understanding the woman who had been sleeping with him in the same bed for so long? Or did he see the signs and never took them seriously?

No matter what it was, it was a fact that he hurt his niece.
