Flash Marriage with Dr. Huo

Chapter 62 The eldest daughter of the Lin family

Just as Lin Yunzheng finished taking a shower at her home in Qianyue Jiayuan and walked towards the bedroom to prepare for bed, her cell phone rang again. The caller ID on the screen stunned her - the name of her father, whom she had not contacted for a long time, was clearly visible.

She hesitated for a moment, and finally pressed the answer button.

"Daughter...long time no see. How have you been these years?" A familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from the other end of the phone, with guilt and helplessness in the voice.

"Dad, you suddenly come to me so late, is there something wrong?" Lin Yunzheng vaguely felt that something was going to happen.

"Your grandfather...is not in good health. He's in the hospital and the doctor said he may not have much time left. I hope you can come and see him. After all, blood is thicker than water..."

Lin Yunzheng's mind was instantly drawn into the entanglement of past memories and reality.

Lin Yunzheng's father, Lin Tingzhou, is the director of the Provincial Health Department. Lin Yunzheng's identity as an illegitimate daughter and her estranged relationship with her father for many years have now become a complex emotional web.

Despite her inner turmoil, she softly agreed, "Okay, Dad, I'll go see Grandpa. Please tell me the specific details of the hospital, and I'll leave early tomorrow morning."

On the other end of the line, her father's voice was visibly relieved, and he quickly hung up after she agreed. Lin Yunzheng put down her phone and looked out the window at the moonlight, feeling both nostalgic for the past and anxious about the unknown situation she was about to face.

As the night deepened, Lin Yunzheng sat by the window, gazing at the dim stars in the distance. Her heart was overwhelmed by waves of past memories.

Since I was a child, my father's figure has been a faint and distant presence. Whenever he is mentioned, there is always bitterness and sadness on my mother's face.

In her world, those concepts about fatherly love are like illusions.

Thinking of the grandfather whom she had never met, Lin Yunzheng felt an indescribable emotion in her heart.

From childhood to adulthood, she had almost no chance to integrate into the so-called "Lin family". Her father was a high-ranking official, and her grandfather was an entrepreneur. To her, the "Lin family" was more like an unreachable symbol rather than a real existence that carried flesh and blood ties.

Every time she tried to contact or understand them, she was often met with indifference and rejection. This built up layers of barriers in her heart, and she felt extremely unfamiliar with the sense of belonging to the family that should have belonged to her.

The next morning, when the first rays of morning light penetrated the clouds and covered the city with warmth, Lin Yunzheng drove out of the house.

Her steps were a little heavy, and she felt both anticipation and anxiety in her heart.

As she approached the hospital entrance, Lin Yunzheng saw her father's name on her phone. She answered the call, and the voice on the other end was urgent and deep: "Daughter, your grandfather's condition is much more serious than you imagined. He's nearing his deathbed. He knows his time is running out, so he might make some requests today. Whatever they are, I hope you can try to agree to them. This is very important to him. He's thought about recognizing you over the years, but..."

Lin Yunzheng was silent. She knew what this meant. Her father's plea on the phone had awakened her to the depths of family affection. "Dad, I understand," Lin Yunzheng replied. "I'll do my best to fulfill Grandpa's wishes."

The white building of the hospital looked particularly solemn in the morning sun. She followed the signs to find the floor where the ward was located and nervously pushed open the door.

The scene in the room made Lin Yunzheng's breath catch. The old man lying on the bed was thin, with the years carving deep marks on his face. His eyes were slightly closed, and he looked extremely weak.

Despite this, when the old man noticed someone coming in and tried to open his eyes, a bright light suddenly appeared in his cloudy eyes.

"Are you... my granddaughter?" The old man's voice was hoarse, but his words were full of longing and tenderness.

Lin Yunzheng looked at the relative in front of her whom she met for the first time in her life, and the defenses in her heart seemed to be quietly dismantled by some force at this moment.

Tears welled up in her eyes, but she fought hard to hold them back. She walked lightly to the bedside, looked at the old man's haggard face, and said in a trembling voice, "Yes, Grandpa, I am your granddaughter."

The old man's eyes were moist, and he used all his strength to force a smile, which made his wrinkled face lively.

"Child, I heard about you. You are actually the eldest daughter of our Lin family. I have always wanted to see you, but too many things have stood in the way. Now, I am very happy and relieved to see you in my final journey."

"Grandpa, you have to be strong, you must be strong." Lin Yunzheng looked at the old man in front of her, and thought of the first time in her life she felt her grandfather's kindness. She couldn't help but let her tears roll down, falling on the back of her hand like crystal pearls.

Beside the bed, Grandpa Lin stared at Lin Yunzheng, his eyes full of kindness and reluctance.

Even though his strength was extremely weak, he still insisted on speaking. His voice was weak, but every word was powerful: "Child, I have a wish that has not been fulfilled. Before I leave this world, I want to do a few last things for you."

"Yun Zheng, my granddaughter," he continued, each word filled with affection, "I know I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities as a grandfather, but now, I want to make up for it. On the one hand, the lawyer will ask you to sign the inheritance documents later. In addition, you can consider letting him become your lifelong partner, to protect you, to accompany you..." He paused, then pointed to the other side of the room, where stood a handsome and mature man, who was the young and promising president of the pharmaceutical group.

When the old man finished speaking, the atmosphere in the ward suddenly became tense. Lin Yunzheng looked at her grandfather in the bed in surprise, then turned her gaze to the young man standing in the corner.

He was a tall and straight man with extraordinary temperament, and his deep eyes were filled with gentleness and respect.

His appearance obviously exceeded Lin Yunzheng's expectations.

On the one hand, Lin Yunzheng was extremely grateful for her grandfather's kindness, but on the other hand, she was caught off guard by this sudden life plan.

She tilted her head slightly, gave the old man a reassuring smile, and said softly, "Thank you, Grandpa."

Lin Yunzheng originally wanted to refuse and wanted to tell her grandfather that she was already married, but when she thought of what her father said in the morning and that her grandfather was now on his deathbed, she did not say much.

The young CEO stepped forward and extended a friendly hand to Lin Yunzheng. "Hello, Lin Yunzheng, my name is Song Tiancheng. I'm very happy to have the opportunity to meet you. If possible, if possible, I hope to prove to you in my own way that I can be someone you can trust."

While the conversation was going on in the ward, Huo Chenyuan and his students appeared at the door of the ward and came in to check on the ward.

When he saw the scene in the ward - Lin Yunzheng and Song Tiancheng talking and shaking hands, his face instantly darkened, his eyes revealed obvious displeasure, and his brows furrowed.

Huo Chenyuan's eyes were sharp, and the corners of his mouth were slightly turned down, outlining a cold line, and his entire face was shrouded in frost. Huo Chenyuan knew this Song Tiancheng.
