The first top lady

Chapter 58 A late and slow breakfast

Guan Tong was sent to the hospital last night. His subordinates had no choice but to call Guan Qian and ask him to go to the Criminal Investigation Bureau as a family member to assist in the investigation.

Guan Qian agreed and spent nearly two and a half hours finishing his breakfast. He then staggered out the door. As a result, he ran into Song Yixuan at the entrance of the Criminal Investigation Bureau and had lunch together again.

Shengkai was helpless about this.

The sound of a bell broke the brief silence, and the steam lingering overhead gradually dissipated.

Guan Qian answered the call and heard harsh roars and curses from the phone. It was Guan Tong, and he woke up.

"Thirteenth Young Master, please come to the hospital as soon as possible." Guan Tong's people almost begged, "The eldest young master just woke up and has already injured two doctors and three nurses. We can't control him."

The ward was in chaos since Guan Tong woke up. Doctors and nurses fled and dared not approach.

Guan Tong is now like a mad dog, attacking everyone who approaches him with bared fangs and claws.

"Oh." Guan Qian responded indifferently, lowered his eyes, and continued eating without any emotional fluctuations and without any worry.

Everyone in the house knew that he and Guan Tong did not get along well. Did he want him to say a few hypocritical words of concern like he did when Guan Tong visited him before?

He couldn't do it.

Besides, Guan Tong can still beat people now, which means there is no big problem.

"Bang, bang!" Then there was a loud noise, probably the glass breaking.

"Young Master Thirteen, please, please come over here." The subordinates were becoming more and more anxious. They could not communicate with Guan Tong and did not dare to report to Guan Dengrong. They could only temporarily ask Guan Qian to settle the situation. "The hospital has already sent people over. If something really happens to the eldest young master, we won't be able to explain to you." The subordinates almost begged. They had never been so humble even with Guan Tong.

Noticing that Guan Qian was still indifferent, he could only change his words, "Thirteenth Young Master, if the eldest young master starts to fight again, these doctors and nurses will be in trouble."

"It seems that the injury is not serious enough!" Guan Qian said in a deep voice.

"what?"

"I understand. Just wait." He said these cold words very casually.

Guan Qian ate a few bites and rested for a while, but he had no intention of leaving.

Song Yixuan was still chewing slowly, with no intention of finishing.

Well, actually she asked for another cage.

Sheng Kai was tired of waiting, so he simply went back to the car to take a nap, sighing in his heart: These two people are really slow!

Thinking that the time was almost up, Guan Qian said, "I've already paid the bill. Go back after you finish eating. I'll come find you."

Song Yixuan raised his chin and looked at him as a reply, then watched his car merge into the traffic flow, retracted his gaze, put down his chopsticks, stretched, and raised his voice to shout, "Boss, pack up."

I am so full, I really can't eat any more. Otherwise, it would be impossible for me to chew more and more slowly and find it hard to swallow.

Quan Mansion.

He Yunchu's car drove directly into the Quan Mansion. The Quan family servant opened the car door and respectfully welcomed her out of the car.

"Miss He, the president is waiting for you in the flower hall in the backyard."

He Yunchu smiled and nodded, then walked towards the backyard.

Under the flower hall supported by vines was sitting an old man with gray hair, wearing reading glasses and flipping through a thick photo album.

"Aunt Jun."

"Hey, Xiaochu, you're here. Sit down quickly." Quan Jun moved the photo album and pointed to the page that was just turned to show He Yunchu, "This is a photo of me and your mother when we were in school. It was just two alleys away from here."

In the photo, two female college students, who are in their 18s or 19s and in their prime, are smiling brightly.

Then she said with regret: "But two years ago, that alley was demolished..." Also demolished were their once beautiful memories.

There were dozens of pages in a row, and each page had four or five photos, all of which were photos of Quan Jun and He Yunchu's mother Guan Jue. When he turned the page again, there was a photo of a strange man and a little girl, neither of whom He Yunchu recognized.

"After we got married, we didn't have any photos together." Quan Jun sighed, "Your mother went to study abroad, and when she came back she brought a young man with her. I thought that was too much, so I brought a young man to her too. So there was this photo of me, your mother, father, and your uncle." She turned another page, and this one photo alone occupied the entire card.

He Yunchu recognized He Yusong on the far left, Guan Jue and Quan Jun in the middle, but she didn't recognize the man on the far right who was looking at Quan Jun affectionately. This must be her uncle, but unfortunately she didn't have any impression of him.

Quan Jun told He Yunchu stories from the past, about how she and Guan Jue met and got to know each other, about their respective pursuits and ideals, and about the sadness and regrets of most of their lives.

"…She was a person with great ambitions for her country and her family. When she was studying abroad, she met He Yusong who had the same ambitions. They gave up the prosperity of Shenhai and went to the imperial capital in the north to display their talents. They were praised as a talented man and a beautiful woman. Unfortunately, they saw through the officialdom and were tired of it. In a fit of anger, they moved to Chengze and no longer interfered in government affairs." Only Guan Jue and He Yusong knew the reason.

"Your mother has become a little cold because of this." Guan Jue felt distressed, but could do nothing about it. "Fortunately, she had you later, otherwise I would have worried that she would be unable to get over it."

Perhaps it is not that he cannot let go, but that he lets go too much, which is why he is unwilling to yield, tarnish himself, and humiliate his integrity.

"I lost my husband and my daughter. Perhaps only Wanhui International can prove that I existed." That was the business she founded, which took up half her life's efforts. "And these photos."

After a moment of silence, Quan Jun finally returned to reality from his memories, with infinite loneliness in his eyes, but he quickly hid this emotion and joked: "When people get old, they tend to recall the past."

"Aunt Jun, if you're really bored, I'll take you to Chengze." He Yunchu advised, "My mother doesn't leave the house all day, so you two can have a good chat."

She remembered that Guan Jue and Quan Jun had not seen each other for several years, and they would call each other when they were free.

"She is busy translating her works now, so I'd better not go over to disturb her."

"She was also trying to kill time."

……

He Yunchu didn't understand. She always felt that Quan Jun didn't want to leave Shenhai, and her mother seemed to be waiting for something in Chengze, lying dormant.
