1987 My Era

Chapter 522,

Leave Wukang Road.

Editor-in-Chief Liao asked him, "Where are you going to research for your next book?"

Li Heng replied: "Aba, Sichuan Province."

Editor-in-Chief Liao was surprised: "An autonomous region for ethnic minorities?"

Li Heng is right.

Editor-in-Chief Liao didn't expect him to go so far: "I went to this place once a few years ago. It borders the Shudu Plain. It is a typical plateau terrain with an average altitude of more than 3000 meters. I had tinnitus at that time. You must be prepared accordingly."

Li Heng smiled and said, "Brother, I'm afraid you have forgotten where I was born. The Xuefeng Mountains where I'm from are at a high altitude."

Editor-in-Chief Liao solemnly warned: "The Xuefeng Mountains are not low in altitude, but it is still lower than that in Aba. You must not take it lightly."

Li Heng nodded: "Teacher Yu has already sent someone to check the location. I will leave after this month."

Editor Liao calculated his work schedule and said, "If you can spare some time, I'll go with you and visit an old college classmate of mine."

Li Heng asked curiously: "Where does your friend live?"

Editor-in-Chief Liao said: "Maerkang Town, the seat of the AB State Government,"

Li Heng said: "Okay, I'll let you know before we leave."

As we chatted along the way, when the car left Xuhui, Editor-in-Chief Liao thought for a while, then changed the subject and said, "There is something I want to tell you, but I don't know whether I should tell you or not."

Li Heng tilted his head to look at him: "What's the matter?"

Editor-in-Chief Liao said: "Zhaoyi's mother was hospitalized yesterday at noon."

Some words were easy to understand. The other party's hospitalization must be related to him, otherwise his senior brother would not have mentioned it. Li Heng hesitated for a moment and asked, "Because of what happened between me and her?"

Editor-in-Chief Liao did not hide the truth: "Yesterday morning Xuqing and her friends went to the entrance of Fudan University. On their way back, they ran into Zhaoyi, and then they had lunch together at Fuchun Garden. During the meal, there was a quarrel, and Huang's mother fainted from anger."

Hearing the anger, Li Heng fell silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.

After a while, seeing that he was silent, Editor-in-Chief Liao asked, "I have to go to the hospital this afternoon. Do you want to come with me?"

Li Heng asked worriedly, "How old is Huang's mother this year?"

Editor-in-Chief Liao said: “Almost 70.”

Hearing that he was so old, Li Heng became even more worried: "The other party quarreled with Zhaoyi because of me, and I'm afraid he doesn't want to see me. If I go over there rashly, will it aggravate the old man's condition?"

He was not afraid of meeting the Huang family. Since he had confirmed his relationship with the Da Qingyi, there were some things he could not escape. His idea was always to face difficulties together and not to disappoint Zhaoyi.

But in many things, one must consider the overall situation and cannot just rush forward with one's straightforward temper. What if Huang's mother faints again after seeing him and her condition worsens? What should one do then?

Then what should I explain to the Huang family?

How to explain to Da Qingyi?

Editor-in-Chief Liao hesitated, obviously considering this aspect.

Elderly people generally have high blood pressure, and Huang's mother has always been impatient. If she faints again, it will probably be troublesome.

Li Heng's mind was racing. He said slowly, "Brother, how about this? I won't go into the ward later. I'll wait for you in the corridor outside. I'll buy some nutritional supplements and fruits, and you can bring them in for me."

Editor-in-Chief Liao nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "This is a good idea! This is a good idea! You can attack or defend. It not only shows your courtesy and respect, but also won't make her angry by meeting her in person.

Even if the Huang family specifically asks to see you, you can go in."

That’s what Li Heng thought.

After discussing the gifts and buying them at a department store along the way, we drove into Jing'an and stopped downstairs of the hospital.

The Huang family has a very high status in Shanghai, and the ward was easy to find. Under the guidance of the nurse, the two came to the door of the ward.

Editor-in-Chief Liao took the gift from him and whispered, "Wait for me outside. I'll go check out the situation."

Li Heng nodded and stopped in the corridor. Editor-in-Chief Liao was very familiar with the Huang family. After knocking on the door and entering, he found that the three Huang sisters were all inside, as well as Zhaoyi's eldest sister-in-law.

Seeing Editor-in-Chief Liao, Huang Xuqing, who was closest to the door, immediately came over to greet the gift: "Brother Liao, you came just in time, but why did you buy so many things? Both hands can hardly hold them all."

Editor-in-Chief Liao said with a smile: "The left hand is mine, and the right hand is Li Heng's."

When the name "Li Heng" was heard, the ward suddenly fell silent. Everyone turned their heads immediately and looked at the bed cautiously.

Huang's mother had good hearing and when she heard the name "Li Heng", her face changed instantly and became ugly.

Seeing this scene, Editor-in-Chief Liao secretly felt lucky that Li Heng did not follow in directly, otherwise it would have been difficult to resolve.

Seeing their mother's reaction, the three Huang sisters immediately stopped talking about Li Heng. Even Huang Zhaoyi, who was worried about him, held back for a while.

Editor-in-Chief Liao took the tea handed over by his sister-in-law, walked to the bedside, and started to ask about Huang's mother's health.

For example, how are you feeling? Are you feeling better? What do you want to eat?

Huang's mother answered all the questions one by one. After chatting for a while, she suddenly asked, "Where is he?"

This "he" of course refers to Li Heng.

This question startled everyone in the room, and their hearts immediately rose to their throats.

Editor-in-Chief Liao turned to the three sisters and the eldest sister-in-law, seemingly seeking their opinions.

Seeing this, Huang's mother said unhappily, "Where is he? I want to see him."

Huang Zhiyun asked: "Mom, why are you meeting Li Heng in this state?"

Huang's mother's eyes shone, but when she realized that the other person was her own daughter, her expression softened after a while. She sighed and said, "I'm not afraid of death at my age, but I'm a little worried about your little sister. I have to find a home for her."

Hearing this, everyone in the room fell silent.

Huang Zhaoyi felt guilty and sat down in front of the bed. She reached out and held her mother's hand. "Mom, don't worry about me for now. Get well first. Li Heng must be very busy these days. I'm afraid he won't have time to come."

As he spoke, the man in blue quietly kicked Editor-in-Chief Liao's shoe with his left foot, signaling him to cooperate.

There is nothing I can do if you don’t cooperate.

Because once Li Heng is called in, it will be a dead end!

Huang's mother must have suggested that Li Heng marry the younger daughter, but under the current circumstances, it is impossible for Li Heng to marry the older daughter.

There's no way to reach an agreement on this. There's no solution.

Editor-in-Chief Liao understood and said, "Mr. Jin Yong is returning to Hong Kong today, and Li Heng went to see him off, so he asked me to bring the gift over."

Huang's mother frowned and said unhappily, "It turns out that things that come to your door voluntarily are not worth much."

The air in the room was stagnant!
We are not fools and we all know that Huang's mother is scolding her younger daughter: She offered herself to the bed on her own initiative, but the other person took advantage of her and didn't take her seriously.

My sister-in-law counselled, "Mom, things have their priorities. Li Heng's identity has just been exposed, so he must be entangled in a lot of things. In addition, given your health, people don't dare to come over. You have to understand him."

Huang Zhiyun echoed, "Yes, the cause of the incident is clear, the root of the fault lies with Xiao Liuyue, we can't blame all of this on Li Heng.

Although our Huang family is powerful, we still have to be reasonable. The fact that he specifically asked Brother Liao to do a favor proves that my younger sister still has a certain position in his heart.

Besides, Li Heng is of high status, we can discuss some things, but we can't put on an attitude that scares him."

Huang Zhaoyi looked at her second sister gratefully and said, "Mom, take care of yourself first. When you recover, I will discuss it with him."

In fact, Huang Zhaoyi's excuse was pure, because she was not sure at all. Her purpose was just to hope that her mother would get better as soon as possible.

ps: Change first and then change.
