The green camphor tree has a deep view

After a while, Gu Huaiyuan brought Jing Long back. As soon as he entered the ward, he saw Zhou Wen leaning on the bed with tears in her eyes, sobbing weakly.

"What's going on?" Gu Huaiyuan immediately asked Wen Qing who was standing by. Seeing Wen Qing hanging her head and not saying anything, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind. He approached Zhou Wen and asked, "Who came over and said what to you?"

Seeing his mother crying, Jing Long quickly ran forward, hugged his mother's neck with his little hands, and said softly: "Who bullied you? I'm going to settle the score with him!"

Zhou Wen wiped her tears and tried to force a smile: "Good boy, if mom is useless, do you still want her?"

"How can mom be useless?" Jing Long asked curiously.

"If mom is sick, has no money, and has no place to live, you can go find your dad, okay?" Zhou Wen said as tears welled up in her eyes again.

"No! Mom won't be without money, and she won't be without a place to live. Mom will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. What disease can she have? We will go home tomorrow!"

After hearing this, Zhou Wen couldn't hold back her tears and simply hugged her son and cried bitterly.

Gu Huaiyuan had a gloomy face. He looked at Zhou Wen and Jing Long who were crying, and then looked at Wen Qing.

"When did you know?" Gu Huaiyuan's voice was low, like the dark clouds before a storm, about to come down.

"I heard some things in the hospital, and then I analyzed them myself." Wen Qing answered expressionlessly.

Gu Huaiyuan frowned: "Why don't you ask me for confirmation?"

"What are you trying to prove?" Wen Qing said, "These are all obvious things, but my aunt was deceived by the Song family and lived in confusion for so many years."

"Wen Qing, you are very smart, but you don't understand the ways of the world." Gu Huaiyuan sighed, "What if we just let her be kept in the dark? Even if we want to make it clear, we can wait until she is discharged from the hospital..."

"Song Weiming sent Yin Tongcheng to inform us that the Song family will hold a family meeting soon. Do we have to wait until then to be kicked out of the Song family?"

"You are too sensitive! No one will chase her away. After all, there is Jing Long."

"Jing Long only has empty shares. He has no right to do anything before he comes of age. Even the money from the family trust needs Song Jingshen's signature before he can get it. Do you think Song Jingshen will happily sign and give the money?"

Gu Huaiyuan didn't know the terms of the Song family trust, and was surprised to hear this: "How do you know so much?"

Wen Qing hesitated for a moment and said, "Jing Huai said that. She told me privately when she came to see my aunt last time."

Gu Huaiyuan slowly walked to the window and looked out. Outside the window was a tall camphor tree. Even though it was autumn, the leaves were still green, seemingly unaffected by the cooler weather. The stubborn and persistent green color was very much like the girl next to him.

He turned his head, looked at Wen Qing, and said thoughtfully: "If the Song family does things so decisively, what are you going to do?"

"That depends on my aunt." Wen Qing looked back at him and said calmly, "If she still wants to go to the Song family and endure the humiliation..."

"I'm not going." Zhou Wen interrupted her softly, her voice weak but clear, "I'm not going there again... It makes me feel cold!"

Gu Huaiyuan's eyes lit up for a moment, then he calmed down: "You have to think it over carefully."

Zhou Wen glanced at Gu Huaiyuan and said slowly: "In fact, it's not that I don't understand Song Weiming's character, but... I always thought that even a tiger would not eat its own cubs... Now it seems that it's no wonder that Jing Shen distanced himself from him. Jing Shen was able to see the big picture from the small details..."

"What do you mean by seeing the big picture from the small details? I think they are birds of a feather!" Wen Qing sneered, "They are all the same, taking advantage of others' misfortunes and adding insult to injury. They use people to their advantage and not to their disadvantage. The Song family really has a long history of family traditions."

"Sister, is the Song family really that bad? Is my father that bad too?" Jing Long, who was crying with his nose red, asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Wen Qing realized that she had said something wrong and was anxious to smooth things over. She was a little incoherent for a moment: "What I said was a... not very good way of dealing with things. Jing Long would definitely not do that."

Jing Long touched his nose and said, "But my last name is Song, just like my father and brother, we are all members of the Song family. At the funeral, Butler Yu also said that the Song family will rely on me and my brother in the future."

After hearing this, Wen Qing curled her lips and continued disapprovingly: "That depends on whether your brother allows you..."

"Wen Qing!" Gu Huaiyuan interrupted with a serious face, "There is no point in saying more, and don't take it for granted."

Wen Qing pursed her lips, lowered her head and said nothing more.

Gu Huaiyuan walked from the window to Zhou Wen's side, looked at her deeply for a while, then looked at Jing Long, suppressed the emotions in his eyes, and said softly: "If you need help, just come to me. Don't have too much hope for the Song family, but don't leave all the options open. I don't want to see you suffer anymore."

Zhou Wen raised her tearful eyes and looked into Gu Huaiyuan's deep eyes. She opened her mouth to say something, but in the end, no words came out.

Gu Huaiyuan patted her delicate shoulder gently, turned around and walked towards the door of the ward. When he was almost at the door, he suddenly remembered something and turned back to Wen Qing and said, "Wait until the Song family meeting is over and let me know the result."

Wen Qing nodded, stood up and sent him out. After the two of them left the ward, she said to Gu Huaiyuan gratefully, "Thank you for the home appliances you sent. They really helped a lot!"

Gu Huaiyuan looked at her seriously for a while, and finally couldn't help laughing: "You are such a jerk, I can't hide anything from you."

"Does your aunt know about your feelings for her?" Wen Qing asked the question she had always wanted to ask.

"Even if she knew, what could she do? She can't leave Song Weiming."

"But it's different now, isn't it?" Wen Qing looked at Gu Huaiyuan with hope in her eyes, "She herself said that she will no longer go to the Song family..."

"That's one thing, and one thing is another." Gu Huaiyuan curled his lips slightly, revealing a bitter smile, "Her mind is still there. She is not as clear-headed as you, nor as ruthless as you."

"I am heartless?" Wen Qing asked in surprise.

Gu Huaiyuan glanced at her dimly, chuckled, and said, "Maybe this will make you unhappy, but in fact, compared to your aunt, you are more like a member of the Song family."

Wen Qing was so angry that she choked. She glared at Gu Huaiyuan for the first time and said angrily, "I didn't!"

"Okay, just walk slowly and see." Gu Huaiyuan looked up and sighed, "I heard from Jiang Xueming that you want to withdraw from the base station project?"

"Yeah." Wen Qing responded, thinking that Senior Sister Zhu Yu was really a big mouth and told Jiang Xueming everything.

"Is it because of the depth of field?" Gu Huaiyuan asked.

"No." Wen Qing denied immediately, "What does it have to do with him? I'm in the hospital because my aunt is in the hospital and I don't have enough time."

"You're not the kind of person who would make such an excuse," Gu Huaiyuan looked down at her, "It's good enough that you can hide it from Zhu Yu, how could you hide it from me? Is it because Jing Shen likes you, and you are hiding from him?"

Wen Qing looked up suddenly, and bumped into Gu Huaiyuan's understanding eyes, which reflected her shocked face: "How did you know?"
