“Come on, who’s afraid of you? You were the one who lost to me back then!”
Elder Pei immediately rolled up his sleeves and lunged at Elder Shen upon hearing this.
“And you have the nerve to bring up the old days? You clearly promised to take good care of her, and what was the result? If I had known, I wouldn’t have stepped aside back then!”
Talking about the past, the two old men were like they’d been injected with adrenaline, neither willing to give an inch.
“If you hadn’t stepped aside, she wouldn’t even have looked at you. It wouldn’t have mattered anyway!”
“Oh, give it a rest!”
Elder Pei, growing more distressed as he spoke, even lifted his foot to kick Elder Shen.
“She’s dead now, does that bring you peace?”
Elder Shen sat by the bed with his cane, his eyes filled with loneliness.
“Whether I’m at peace or not, I’ll join her one day, too.”
“Hmph, enough of this nonsense. I might as well go down first, and then it’s nothing to you.”
“In your dreams, even if you go down first, she won’t pay you any attention.”
Elder Pei threatened to throw punches again, and the two elderly men soon began to tussle once more.
The bodyguards and nurses dared not intervene, fearing they might accidentally hurt the two old men.
Pei Jue sighed helplessly and had to step in himself to separate them.
Qingwu was a bit curious. Every time they argued, past events came up, but this was the first time they’d become so emotionally charged.
“Grandfather, who are you talking about?”
Elder Shen’s eyes were filled with deep memories, and a smile curled at the corners of his mouth, as if he’d returned to the past.
“An old acquaintance, not important anymore.”
Elder Pei was displeased again and said angrily, “Shen Lisu, how can you be so heartless? You dare say she’s not important? She led such a bitter life, encountering a scoundrel like you!”
Qingwu: “…”
Living to this age and still being called a scoundrel, Elder Shen was also angry.
“You’re not a scoundrel? You said you liked her while marrying someone else!”
“That was because I knew I couldn’t win her over! Who’s like you, you despicable old man, starting strong but giving up midway!”
Elder Pei became angry as he spoke.
“Who made her only have eyes for you back then!”
“Who she liked had nothing to do with you.”
They both had liked the same woman in their younger years, yet that woman only had eyes for Elder Shen.
Even though the beauty had long passed, in the eyes of the two old men, she remained an untouchable presence.
When it looked like the two old men were going to wrestle again, Qingwu calmly said, “Whoever makes a move won’t be allowed to leave the hospital.”
As soon as she said this, the two old men immediately quieted down.
Whether they could leave the hospital was entirely up to Qingwu now!
“I am very obedient. I’ve taken all the medicine you brought!”
“I’ve taken it too. It’s like you’re the only one who took it. I’ve been following Qingwu’s instructions!”
Seeing the two old men trying their best to prove how obedient they’d been recently, Qingwu also wore a faint smile.
Her gaze fell on the comic books under the hospital bed.
“Who brought the comics? Didn’t I say they’re bad for your eyes and to read less?”
Elder Shen quickly extended his foot to kick the few comic books further under the bed.
Elder Pei tucked his game console under the blanket.
Afraid Qingwu would discover their cherished toys and prevent them from leaving the hospital!
Elder Shen hurriedly changed the subject.
“Qingwu, did you come from your grandmother’s just now? What did she say to you?”
Qingwu glanced at Pei Jue standing beside her.
“Nothing much, just that she wants me to cancel the engagement with the Pei Family.”
Elder Pei immediately jumped up from the bed, his eyes wide like copper bells.
“Sweetheart, you didn’t agree, right? How could that old hag be so nasty? Is she jealous that I have such a wonderful granddaughter-in-law? Don’t listen to her nonsense. Your grandpa likes you very much. Even if this rascal Pei Jue doesn’t deserve you, I can find you a fitting young fellow from the Pei Family!”
Pei Jue stared speechlessly at his grandfather.
Was this digging around his corner right in front of him?
Despite Elder Pei’s words, he was still considering his grandson’s well-being.
“That rascal may have a rotten temper and bad character, but he’s good-looking and makes money. For these reasons, Qingwu, you should try getting along with him. If it really won’t work, Grandpa will find you someone else!”
“As for that old hag, your grandmother, hardly anything she says is worth listening to.”
Qingwu glanced at Pei Jue, who stood beside her, speechless, and she smiled.
“I didn’t agree.”
Elder Pei breathed a sigh of relief, glancing at Elder Shen sitting beside him.
“This is your family matter, sort it out yourself.”
They could immediately see through what that old hag was attempting to do.
Wasn’t it just hoping the granddaughter she brought would marry Pei Jue?
Elder Shen felt somewhat tired and sighed.
“I see what you mean. I reported to the higher-ups last month to dissolve the marriage with her. But after all, she is Dongli’s mother; I can’t handle it too harshly.”
Qingwu was also somewhat surprised.
Elder Shen had quietly divorced Mrs. Shen?
And this was arranged last month. With Elder Shen’s status, the preparation time needed to file for divorce must have been lengthy and complicated.
This meant that Elder Shen had been preparing for the divorce a long time ago.
Elder Pei chuckled knowingly, looking shrewd.
“If it weren’t for some things I couldn’t tell you, you’d have divorced a long time ago.”
He’d been holding onto a secret for so many years, and it wasn’t easy!
Elder Shen sharply caught the crucial point.
“What do you mean by that? What can’t you tell me?”
“There are plenty of things I can’t tell you.”
Elder Shen squinted his eyes, feeling something was amiss.
Elder Pei, realizing he’d said too much, patted his mouth, happily dragging Qingwu off to his ward to play games.
Haha, when he could reveal that secret, there would be plenty for Elder Shen to regret!
“Granddaughter-in-law, why can’t I clear that level in the game you told me about last time? It’s driving me crazy!”
Elder Pei pulled out the gaming console and found the game Qingwu had taught him last time.
He’d already set the game time, ensuring Qingwu wouldn’t discover he had been secretly playing games at night.
Qingwu took the gaming console, skillfully opened the backend program, and clicked on all hidden data.
A series of numbers appeared on the screen, scrolling continuously.
Qingwu’s fingers flew across the controls, quickly finding all the most recent gaming sessions.
“Elder Pei, you were playing games at three a.m. last night.”
Elder Pei’s eyes widened instantly.
“I just happened to be up using the bathroom at that time!”
“On the toilet for three hours?”
“Well, at my age, constipation is quite normal…”
Qingwu nodded. “In that case, I’ll prescribe some suitable medication for you, though it might be a bit bitter.”
Elder Pei was heartbroken!
He had hired professionals to help hide the time, and they’d promised they could delete all traces of his gaming.
How could his granddaughter-in-law find it so easily!”””
