C9 He Is Protecting Her?

After putting on the sterile clothes, Qin Mengyi and Meng Nanke stood in front of the bed. The old man on the bed had just undergone a major surgery, and now his entire face was covered by an oxygen mask. The white sheets covered his thin body, and he struggled to open his eyes. He looked at them.

"Grandpa." Meng Nanke called out softly. His voice was choked with sobs, and his eyes instantly turned red.

Ever since he was young, the old man loved him the most. There were many brothers and sisters in the family, but only he was raised by the old man.

Tears also flowed out of the old man's turbid eyes. He took a deep look at Meng Nanke, but he struggled to lift his finger, which was holding the instrument, and pointed at Qin Mengyi.

Qin Mengyi was puzzled. Before the surgery, the old man seemed to have something to say to her. However, in her memory, the original owner and the old man were not close. It could be said that he was the most unlikeable of all the grandsons and wives. It was a life and death situation. Why did he only refer to her?

Could it be that the old man knew something?

"What are you still standing there for?" Meng Nanke said softly. Although he was also very unwilling, the one his grandfather wanted to see time and time again was this heartless Qin Mengyi.

Qin Mengyi was nervous, but she still moved over.

The old man was difficult to speak. He opened his mouth for a long time and was unable to make a sound. Qin Mengyi looked through the oxygen mask to see his mouth shape and frowned.

"Grandfather..." She was slightly shocked and suspected that she had seen wrongly. She bent down and put her ear close to his mouth.

A hoarse voice came out of the old man's mouth. Every word was extremely weak, but Qin Mengyi still heard it clearly.

It was precisely this sentence that made her expression solemn and she immediately sucked in a breath of cold air.

Meng Nanke looked at Qin Mengyi's expression and naturally understood that the old man must have said something extraordinary, but he did not understand. If it was really that important, why did the old man only say it to Qin Mengyi?

Outside the glass window, everyone was breathing as they watched the scene inside, especially Qing Yuvling. After seeing the old man and Qin Mengyi whispering, it was even more difficult for her to calm down.

"Yuvling, what happened to you? Why are you sweating on such a cold day?" Meng Anbei noticed her strange behavior and asked with concern.

"Nothing." Qing Yuvling's smile was a little pale. "Maybe I'm a little tired."

Ever since the old man got into trouble, they had been guarding the old house of the Meng family, especially Qing Yuvling. These few days, she had been busy with the old man's matters and had been running around. Seeing her like this, Meng Anbei felt even more heartache for her.

"When grandpa wakes up, I must tell him who is the one who truly cares about him." As he spoke, he glared hatefully at Qin Mengyi in the nursing room.

The old man's energy had not recovered yet. After saying a few words, he fell into a deep sleep. Qin Mengyi and Meng Nanke came out from the inside. As soon as they reached the door, they were surrounded by people outside.

"What did the old man say to you?" Qi Faang was the first to ask, "Did you hear it clearly? Hurry up and say it."

"Did he tell you about the will? Who is he leaving the shares in his hands to?" The person who said this was the eldest grandson of the Meng family, Meng Hongzhuo. In the previous chaos, Qin Mengyi had never seen him speak. But now, his sudden question made everyone quiet down.

"Speak!" Qi Faang urged her. Seeing that she did not speak after a long time, she got angry and pushed her.

Qin Mengyi's body was still weak and could not withstand her push. She staggered a few steps back and when she thought that she was going to fall to the ground, she suddenly fell into a wide embrace.

Meng Nanke reached out and grabbed her. His hand hit the hard door frame. His eyes were sharp. "Grandpa is now out of danger. If you have anything to say, wait until he is better. Won't you ask him yourself?"

The man had a faint smell of tobacco on him. Qin Mengyi leaned against his chest and felt the warmth in his arms. She felt that she was hallucinating from the heat.

Meng Nanke was... Protecting her?

"Second brother, what do you mean by this?" Meng Hongzhuo's tone was unfriendly, "Don't put on an act here. The show was all sung by you and your wife. Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking!"

"What Big Brother wants to think is your business. It has nothing to do with me." Meng Nanke's face was still dark. Qin Mengyi raised her head and looked at his exquisite jaw line.

She felt the hand on her shoulder tighten a little. He held her and passed through the crowd just like that.

His steps were very fast. Qin Mengyi was almost pushed away, but when he reached the door, he pulled his hand back, as if he was afraid of getting dirty.

"Useless thing!" He pushed her away and disdain surfaced in his eyes again. "You know how to be unreasonable in front of me. If others say a few more words, will you be scared silly?"

Qin Mengyi frowned tightly.

She was being unreasonable? Since when was she being unreasonable? Whoever was unreasonable was clear in his heart!

The two of them were just about to leave when the person behind them sped up their footsteps and caught up with them.

"Nanke, wait a moment."

Qin Mengyi turned her head and met Qing Yuvling's eyes that were filled with grief.

Seeing Qing Yuvling's hesitant look, Qin Mengyi felt disdain.

What a beautiful white lotus!

"Can we have a chat?" Although she was talking to Meng Nanke, she looked at Qin Mengyi as if she was asking for Qin Mengyi's opinion.

Qin Mengyi glanced at her and turned to leave.

Meng Nanke was surprised by her reaction. In the past, whenever he saw Qing Yuvling, Qin Mengyi was like a high-spirited rooster. She would always go up and give a peck. What was wrong with her now?

Qing Yuvling saw Meng Nanke staring at Qin Mengyi's back and felt very unhappy in her heart. Her eyes were red as she walked closer to him.

"Nanke, are you alright? I saw that there was an injury on your head. Did something happen?" She looked worried and wanted to reach out to see his wound. But when she thought of her own identity, she raised her hand and pulled it back.

"It's nothing. I accidentally touched it." Meng Nanke slightly tilted his body. His attitude was somewhat distant.

"Are you still blaming me?" Qing Yuvling's voice was soft and mellow, "Blaming me for marrying Anbei?"

Meng Nanke felt a wave of pain in his heart, but he still did not show it. He used an expressionless face to suppress it.

"I have no other choice. The marriage between Qing family and Meng Family was known by everyone. Everyone thought that I am the daughter-in-law of the Meng family. I thought so too. You and I will walk smoothly to the end, but I did not expect Qin Mengyi to suddenly come out and interfere..." Qing Yuvling's eyes were filled with tears and she was extremely sorrowful, "You also know our identities. We do not have the right to choose our own marriage, even if you do not marry me. For the sake of my reputation and the benefits of the Qing family, my parents will definitely marry me into the Meng Clan... "

"I know." Meng Nanke's throat moved. Although three years had passed, every time he thought of the woman he once loved becoming his sister-in-law, he still couldn't face her.

Qing Yuvling stared at him and spoke tentatively. “ It's been so many years. Although I married Anbei, I've been thinking about our beautiful memories day and night. I have also relied on those remaining memories to live my life... Nanke, what about you? Do you still miss me? "
