Chapter 336 You Still Care About Her? (2)

Father Shen looked stern, “Can’t I?”

Shen Xiuqi sneered and replied: “Sure, it’s just that you guys have been divorced for more than ten years now, and now you’re asking about her, does it make sense?”

Father Shen paused and said, “I just wanted to know if she is doing fine?”

Shen Xiuqi almost burst into anger, and said, “My mother has always been doing fine. It’s not like you didn’t know about it, she won two awards after the divorce, inherited a huge amount of inheritance, and is living a free and easy life.”

His words were like knives bloodily stabbing right into Father Shen’s heart and he stayed silent before taking out a cigarette from his pocket, took a deep breath, and out came a white smoke ring. After a while of silence, he said with a deep sigh, “It’s nice that she’s doing good.”

Shen Xiuqi glanced at him coldly, and said, “Whether she is doing well or not has nothing to do with you.”

Father Shen nodded, “Yes, it has nothing to do with me.” After a pause, he said, “Has she left?”

Shen Xiu sneered, “Why should I tell you? You can find out for yourself.”

Father Shen certainly had the ability to do so, he would find out if he wanted to, but there are some things that can’t be reversed, so he kept silent, and walked forward by himself with his cigarette.

Shen Xiuqi looked at his figure from behind and pitied but also hated him. If he didn’t do what he did back then, mum wouldn’t have left him. He didn’t know how to appreciate her, and now he regrets his choices after he loses her! However, a while later, he’ll move on with this life! Does he even deserve any form of sympathy?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, Shen Xiuqi was too lazy to even look at him again, and turned back.

Su Yaya chatted with Mother Su and Grandpa Shen in the living room. Shen Xiuqi returned and saw Grandpa Shen smiling very happily.

Su Yaya saw that he was back and asked him, “Are you done talking with your dad?”

Shen Xiuqi nodded, walked over to hold her hand, and said to Grandpa Shen: “It’s getting late, we’ll head back now.”

Grandpa Shen looked up at the time. It was already nine o’clock in the evening, thinking that Shen Xiuqi still had work tomorrow, he then said, “Okay.” He turned around and said to Su Yaya: “Come visit again when you have time.”

Su Yaya nodded and said okay, Shen Xiuqi said goodbye to Grandpa Shen, took Su Yaya’s hand and walked out, got in the car and drove home.

At night, Father Shen returned to his room and laid on the bed, but he couldn’t sleep. He suffered from insomnia for many years, he didn’t know when it started, it was probably when Sun Qin left. He made a mistake back then and he didn’t want to defend himself about it. He did hurt her feelings after all.

He laid in the bed, turned around and saw a box placed in the cabinet. He sat up again, got out of bed and walked over to take the box. He opened it and there was a picture of him, Sun Qin and Shen Xiuqi.

As he looked at the photo, the good old days that he couldn’t return to, holding on to it further would be meaningless, so he placed the photo back again, closed the lid, and put the box back in the cabinet.

Later that night, Father Shen started having a fever. When the family found out, it was already the next morning, they hurriedly sent him to the hospital for a checkup. In the end, he was diagnosed with late stage liver cancer.

Second aunt, Zhang Guifang got the news and called Shen Xiuqi, “Your father is in the hospital. He has liver cancer. Would you like to come to the hospital to visit him?”

Shen Xiuqi paused for a while, and answered okay before ending the call.

Zhang Guifang looked at her phone, thought about it, and called him back, but before she could speak, Shen Xiuqi said on the phone: “I have a very important meeting in a while, I’ll be in the meeting.”

Zhang Guifang didn’t know what to say, so she said, “Okay then.”

Shen Xiuqi hung up on the phone, packed up his materials, and went to the conference room. The marketing director kept talking about the marketing plan at the meeting. Shen Xiuqi stared at the various reports, but not a single word was read.

Su Yaya was at home with Mother Su, sorting out the baby’s belongings, and the new nanny Wang was making chicken soup downstairs.

At this time, Su Yaya’s phone rang, she went to answer the phone, it was Zhang Guifang, who was calling.

Zhang Guifang said on the phone: “Xiuqi’s father has liver cancer. Can you come visit him in the hospital?”

Su Yaya was taken aback and said, “Xiu Qi, does he know about this?”

Zhang Guifang said: “I called him, but he didn’t say anything. He said that he was very busy and was about to head to a meeting. Maybe he didn’t really want to come to visit him, you’re well aware that they don’t really get along.”

Su Yaya comforted her: “Second aunt, don’t worry, I’ll talk to him.”

Zhang Guifang then said: “Don’t force him if he doesn’t want to come. I just wanted to inform you about this, Xiuqi wouldn’t feel good about this, please keep him company.”

Su Yaya remembered that when Sun Qin had fallen ill last time, Shen Xiuqi rushed to see her and disappeared for a few days. When he returned, the things he said to her were all his pent up thoughts and emotions.

Suddenly, Su Yaya felt that Shen Xiuqi was rather pitiful, she felt so sad for him!
