Chapter 573 Afraid of getting my hands dirty

"What are you looking at?" Old Master Qin retorted, speaking to them casually. "This is none of your business. Go back now."

"Is your dad really alright?" Grandpa Chi asked.

Jiang settled down for a while.

Jiang Ruan spoke first: "The doctor said there's nothing serious."

Grandpa Chi coughed lightly.

He helped everyone he could.

Xiao An didn't respond, and there was nothing he could do.

"Then you stay here and take good care of yourself. Old Xie and I will head back first," said Grandpa Chi, feeling a little relieved to see him like this. "Call us if anything happens, and don't get as agitated as before."

"Okay," Old Master Qin replied.

Grandpa Chi and Grandpa Xie have passed away.

Jiang Ruan escorted them downstairs.

Before getting into the car, Grandpa Xie was still a little worried and asked again, "Is your grandfather really alright?"

"Mm." Jiang Ruan nodded.

Although she didn't know what her mother and grandfather talked about, based on her understanding of them, the atmosphere and conversation just now clearly showed that her grandfather had come to his senses and would at least not get so angry again.

"That's fine then," said Grandpa Xie.

“Soft-hearted girl,” Old Master Chi suddenly spoke.

Jiang Ruan looked over.

After considering it carefully, Grandpa Chi asked, "Are you good friends with my Qianqian?"

Jiang Ruan gave an affirmative answer: "Yes."

Although they don't interact much, they are good friends.

Since Grandpa Chi asked that question, she should answer it the same way.

"The kind of sincere feeling?" Old Master Chi asked boldly.

He wouldn't have asked so directly before; it would have been impolite and disrespectful. But seeing how Xiao An and Lao Qin interacted, he suddenly felt compelled to ask, at least to get an answer.

“Yes,” Jiang Ruan replied.

"That's good." Grandpa Chi was a little relieved. "Your Grandpa Xie and I will go back first. If you get bored, come to our house to play with Qianqian."

Jiang Ruan said okay and told them to take care.

After watching their car leave, Jiang Ruan went upstairs.

I received a call from Qin Mo as soon as I stepped out of the elevator. His voice was somewhat serious: "I heard that Grandpa collapsed from anger?"

"Hmm." Jiang Ruan knew they were quick to get information, but she didn't expect it to be this fast.

"How is the situation now?" Qin Mo asked.

“It’s all over now,” Jiang Ruan told him truthfully. “Just keep a cheerful mood, a peaceful state of mind, and try not to get angry.”

Qin Mo frowned slightly.

Are these things something that Grandpa can do with his temper?

"What made him collapse from anger?"

Upon hearing this...

Jiang Ruan fell silent.

Grandpa's anger was partly due to her; if she hadn't asked Chi Qian to spread the news, it wouldn't have reached the ears of Grandpa Chi and Grandpa Xie.

But there are some things that have to be done.

"Is it related to what happened to my aunt back then?" Qin Mo made a guess.

Jiang Ruan replied, "Mm."

It's been more than three years since this happened... no, it should be four years.

Qin Mo also fell silent.

He knew very well how much this would affect his grandfather. He already felt guilty towards his aunt, and upon learning of this, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep well for days and nights.

"I'm coming right away," Qin Mo said before hanging up the phone.

Jiang Ruan put away her phone and headed towards the ward.

Grandpa was the only patient on the entire tenth floor; it was a private hospital ward floor for the Qin family.

As soon as I reached the door, I heard Qin Jiangye's voice coming from inside.

"Your ability to accept this is really too poor," Qin Jiangye said casually. "If I had known you would be this angry, I should have told you before spreading it."

Jiang Ruan: "?"

Jiang Ruan pushed open the door and left.

Upon seeing her arrive, Qin Jiangye smiled and said, "Little cousin."

"Did you spread the word about Mom?" Jiang Ruan asked.

"I was just thinking of giving it a push because I saw you weren't making any progress," Qin Jiangye said casually, then turned his gaze back to Grandpa Qin. "Who knew Grandpa would be so hard to accept? Such a small piece of news sent him to the hospital."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

Old Master Qin: "..."

After briefly ignoring Qin Jiangye, Old Master Qin finally spoke up: "When did you find out?"

"I knew from the beginning," Qin Jiang said.

Old Master Qin: "???"

Old Master Qin was a little angry.

Just as he was about to say something, he noticed out of the corner of his eye the way Jiang An was looking at him.

For some reason, the air in my chest vanished instantly, and my emotions calmed down immediately.

Qin Jiangye: "?"

What's going on?

"Were you involved in this as well?" Old Master Qin asked, maintaining his composure.

Qin Jiangye: "Is your grandson that kind of person?"

Old Master Qin: "You said you knew from the beginning."

Qin Jiangye: "I overheard that by accident."

Old Master Qin: "Who were involved?"

"My dad, my eldest uncle, my second cousin," Qin Jiangye counted on his fingers.

He had originally intended to mention Qin Mo, but after talking with his cousin, he learned that Qin Mo hadn't been involved; she had simply learned about the matter just like him.

The difference was that he was eavesdropping outside, while Qin Mo was inside and was told not to say anything.

Old Master Qin was about to get angry again.

But before he could get angry, he remembered the look in An'an's eyes and consciously calmed down.

"How did you know?" Old Master Qin asked.

Qin Jiangye: "I overheard it."

Old Master Qin: "Then why didn't you tell me?"

Qin Jiangye: "That won't do."

Old Master Qin stared at him: "Why?"

“You never thought of your aunt like you do now, and you never mentioned anything to me,” Qin Jiangye said deliberately. “Who knows if you would keep quiet after I told you.”

Old Master Qin didn't want to talk to him anymore.

"If I had known you cared so much about your aunt and cousin, I would have told you that very day," Qin Jiangye said with a rising tone, his voice tinged with teasing. "But if that had happened, you would most likely have gotten sick from anger."

"Can't you wish me well for once?" Old Master Qin started arguing with him.

Qin Jiangye looked you up and down and said, "With your health, which is so good that you get so angry from just hearing some news that you have to be hospitalized, it's really tough for you."

Old Master Qin made a move as if to hit him.

Qin Jiangye obediently offered his face.

Looking at this scene.

Jiang Ruan felt a little relieved.

Regardless of how the two uncles felt about their grandfather, at least Qin Jiangye had been by his side all these years. Those rare happy days were most likely brought by Qin Jiangye and Qin Mo.

"Why don't you hit me? You can't bear to?" Qin Jiangye started teasing again.

"I'm afraid of getting my hands dirty." Old Master Qin was close to him, and among all the people, he liked him and Qin Mo the most. "With your face that's always so unserious, I don't know how many people you've been beaten up by."

Qin Jiangye clicked his tongue.

Old Master Qin snorted coldly.

Seeing them like this, Jiang Ruan suddenly remembered something: "How did you know Grandpa was in the hospital?"

"I didn't know at first. I heard it from the servants when I went to your house to visit you." Qin Jiangye was telling the truth.

If he had come before lunch, he would probably have witnessed the scene that Grandpa Chi and Grandpa Xie were telling each other. If he had been there, Grandpa Qin probably wouldn't have been so angry.
