C71 causal cause

The sun shone down from the west, illuminating the world with its last glimmer of light. It was like the last mouthful of blood coughed by a patient in the late stage of pulmonary tuberculosis. It was incomparably sad and beautiful.

Xia Xiaoqing walked very slowly. The distance between her and the white building in the sanatorium was only 500 meters, but it was like the distance between heaven and earth in her eyes.

If Xia Xiaoqing wanted to find someone within the four or nine cities that she did not want to see the most, then Old Master Chen would definitely be the first. To be honest, Xia Xiaoqing knew that the Old Master Chen had treated him quite well. When he had first entered the Chen family, the Old Master had treated him, the grandson of the Chen family, with great care.

Now, if she walked into the sanatorium and thought of telling the old man, she would feel sorry for him. But she was even more clear that these things could only be known by Old Master Chen.

The sanatorium was very quiet. Just as Xia Xiaoqing turned the corner and was about to knock on the door, a guard walked over from the side. Xia Xiaoqing said indifferently: "Anyone from the Chen family can come to the nursing home to see the old man, but the doctor said that you can't do it, so I'm sorry!"

The guard was speaking the truth, since the last time Chen Beihuang came over to talk about Xia Xiaoqing, Old Master Chen fainted once, and at that time, he repeatedly recited Xia Xiaoqing's name. At that time, the doctor had already given the order for the guards of Old Master Chen to not let Xia Xiaoqing get close to the old man, in order to prevent his emotions from fluctuating too much.

Just as the guard finished his sentence, an old voice suddenly sounded from inside the ward, "Let her in. Although my body isn't very good, I haven't reached the point where I can't even see someone."

After the guard heard this, he put away the arm that was blocking Xia Xiaoqing and placed her inside the sickroom.

"Old Gramps" Xia Xiaoqing couldn't help but feel his heart ache when he saw the handsome face of the Old Master Chen lying on the sickbed.

"I didn't think you would still have the face to come see me." Old Master Chen looked at Xia Xiaoqing and said indifferently: "Since you are already with someone else, you are not in our Chen Family anymore, you don't need to call me Old Master."

When Old Master Chen said till here, he looked at Xia Xiaoqing with a slightly cold gaze.

"If you have something to say, hurry up and say it. Wait a while, the doctor will come over to inspect your room. If he sees you, he'll kick you out again!" Old Master Chen leaned on the sickbed and said with a cold voice.

Xia Xiaoqing restrained her emotions for a moment, and said in a soft voice, "I found some truth in Nan Yu's sudden death, so I came over to tell you this old man!"

"The truth behind Nan Yu's sudden death? Could it be that you hooked up with that Lin kid at that time? " Old Master Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and shouted out fiercely. The killing intent in his eyes caused Xia Xiaoqing to feel bone-piercing.

Xia Xiaoqing pondered for a moment, ignoring the Old Master Chen's sarcasm, and said: "It was Chen Beihuang's trap. He took the opportunity when Nan Yu was swimming to kill him, and I only found the evidence today."

Old Master Chen was startled, he then pointed at Xia Xiaoqing and scolded: "You are lying, our Chen Family will not do such a rebellious thing!"

The Chen Clan was the same as the other clans in the city. From the moment they had entered the political arena, they had followed the principle of family unity.

In the shopping mall, everyone had to work together, especially in the political field. They had to stick together and form an effective network, in order to maximize the family's influence.

The words that Xia Xiaoqing had said now had already crossed the line of the Old Master Chen teaching his descendants. He could not believe that the cause of Chen Nanyu's death was actually caused by his other grandson, and even more so, could not believe that his painstaking teaching could actually produce such a crazy person.

"Old Master, what I said was all true. At that time, there was someone present. If I didn't find that person today, even I wouldn't have believed that this was true!" Xia Xiaoqing bit her lips.

Speaking till this point, Xia Xiaoqing no longer had to hide anything. She told everything she knew and laid each and every one of them in front of Old Master Chen.

"Is what you said true?" Old Master Chen pointed at Xia Xiaoqing with trembling hands and asked after hearing what Xia Xiaoqing had said.

Xia Xiaoqing silently nodded. Seeing Xia Xiaoqing's appearance, Old Master Chen's body that was leaning against the sickbed suddenly became a lot more hunched. His originally handsome face became even older, and his cheeks that were covered with ravines even lightly trembled.

He placed all of his hope on Chen Nanyu, hoping that his grandson would be able to shoulder the burden of the Chen Family, and make the Chen Family one of the brightest families in all of Nine Cities. After Chen Nanyu's death, he lost, became sad, and placed all of his hope on Chen Beihuang.

However, he really did not expect that right when he was about to step into the coffin, someone would actually tell him that the Chen family had become like this, that he had painstakingly nurtured them with all of his effort, that it was actually so laughable.

No matter if it was to shine in the political arena or to shine in a shopping mall, Old Master Chen's real goal was to bring glory to the Chen family. However, he did not expect that after working hard for a lifetime and teaching for his children for a lifetime, he finally realized that what he had taught was just a fart.

This kind of direct blow to the heart caused the Old Master Chen, who had experienced the baptism of fire and rain on the battlefield, to feel that it was somewhat unbearable.

Seeing that the Old Master Chen's face was ashen, Xia Xiaoqing immediately walked to the side of the Old Master Chen and lightly patted his back. She said something to the ashen-faced old man, but felt she could say nothing.

The Old Master Chen closed his eyes and was silent for a long time. Then, he lowered his head and muttered, "Let's go, wherever you wish to go. You don't owe the Chen Family, and the Chen Family doesn't owe you either.

"Old Gramps" Xia Xiaoqing choked out, as he looked at the Old Master Chen and said softly.

Old Master Chen did not open his eyes. His aged face was filled with grief as he pointed at the door of the ward and said word by word, "I'll let you out!"

"Lordmaster, take care of yourself." Xia Xiaoqing looked at the Old Master Chen's pale face on the sickbed, and muttered softly. He then wiped away his tears, stood up, and walked towards the door of the sickroom with three heads turned back each step.

The sickroom was completely silent. After Xia Xiaoqing walked out, the Old Master Chen opened his eyes and stared at the snow-white ceiling of the ward. He did not say a word.

After a long while, the old man stood up and walked to the window to take a look outside. All the light outside the window had sunk below the horizon, leaving only a faint glow of light. The old man sighed and walked to the door of the ward.

Chen Beihuang felt that his luck in the recent days had almost reached an unimaginable level. The people on the huge list did not reject his suggestion.

Tian Yangzi that old Taoist was truly capable, although he used a living person as a sacrifice, but this method of extracting Qi was not bad.

"He Qinghua, why did you suddenly come here instead of staying in the eternal army?!" Just as Chen Beihuang was thinking, he saw a young man in a military uniform with a military cap in his arm walk in. He was overjoyed and shouted at the young man.

Upon hearing Chen Beihuang's voice, He Qinghua's face was immediately filled with smiles. He walked quickly to Chen Beihuang and smiled: What, this place is opened by you, Chen Beihuang! You're the only one who can't come?!

"Brat, you're quite sharp-tongued. Why aren't you staying in the army for a long time and instead come here? Aren't you in charge of the discipline in the army?" Chen Bei Huang acted as if he did not care and said to He Qinghua.

After He Qinghua heard this, he slapped the army hat under his armpits and shouted harshly: "Those surnamed Liu are f * cking bullying people. Our Old He Family has quite a bit of reputation in all of Fourth or Ninth City, but in the army, it's as if Old Liu's direct line of descent wants to bully our men no matter what. Let me tell you, I won't f * * king eat this. I'll be out now! "

Hearing this, Chen Beihuang was overjoyed, but he did not show it on his face. The Old Master He was once a famous war general, and after the founding of the Old Master He, he became a powerhouse in a region. In these years, it had become very popular in the army, if the Liu family wanted to rise to prominence, they would definitely have a conflict with the He family.

"Old Liu's family is quite well-off right now, so it's natural that he doesn't put us in his eyes." "I think you should hurry back to the army and stop messing with them!" Chen Beihuang tried to persuade her.

Hearing that, He Qinghua was furious, he struck Chen Bei Huang's chest and said: "Hey brat, what's going on? You weren't afraid of anything in the past, but now you are peeing?"

"To tell you the truth, I was bullied by the Liu family recently." Chen Beihuang sighed and pointed at his forehead as he narrated what had happened recently.

Right after he finished speaking, He Qinghua smacked the table and scolded: "Lin Bai and Liu Jingtian, these two brats are too inhumane, they want to ride on our heads and piss off our heads. There's no way, I'll listen to you, f * cking sh * t! I'll bring you to see our family's old man right now! "

Hearing that, Chen Bei Huang laughed out loud, but did not see the mischievous look that flashed past He Qinghua's eyes!
