Zhuang Shang and his son were taken away by the police. According to the extent of their crimes, they would have to spend at least 20 years in prison.
“Grandpa, don’t be too sad. Just treat it as raising two beasts.” Zhuang Liu knew that the old man was upset. After all, he had raised Zhuang Shang for 50 years, and this was how Zhuang Shang repaid them.
Old Master Zhuang felt his head throb. “Xiao Liu, now that your uncle and Zhuang Che are in the company, I’ll leave the company to you. Originally, I wanted to keep them to help you, but their existence is your greatest obstacle.”
“Grandpa, you didn’t have to deal with them personally. I would have done it when I return to the company.” Zhuang Liu said.
“When will your father wake up?” Old Master Zhuang sighed again. “Give Grandpa a definite answer. Grandpa is afraid that he won’t live to see the day your father wakes up.”
“I’ll definitely wake up within this year.” Zhuang Liu concluded. This was what Tan Rou and he said.
“When your father wakes up, he can help lighten the pressure on your shoulders.” Old Master Zhuang looked at Zhuang Liu and said earnestly, “Grandpa is old. I can’t do anything anymore. Otherwise, 1 wouldn’t have allowed them to harm you so badly.”
Actually, Zhuang Liu was a little angry with the Old Master before. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken his parents away. He knew that with the old man’s wisdom, he must have guessed who poisoned them long ago, but the old man didn’t care about this matter. Zhuang Liu thought that the old man wanted them to compete.
Now, it seemed that the old man was too kind-hearted and was not ruthless enough to send Third Brother Zhuang and the others to prison.
After chatting with the old master for a while, Zhuang Liu left the old house. When he left, the old master even advised him to stay, saying that the old house was not lively anymore.
Zhuang Liu promised him that he would come back after a while. After all, the old man was already so old. If he did not have a child by his side, he would definitely be lonely. Although Zhuang Shang and his son were not good people, they had indeed accompanied the old master for many years and the old master was used to their company. Now that they suddenly went to prison, the old master would definitely feel lonely.
“Xiao Liu, what happened?” As soon as Zhuang Liu entered the house, Shen Jing couldn’t wait to ask.
Zhuang Liu replied, “Grandpa found out about Third Uncle’s money laundering and called the police. They’re all locked up in the detention center now.”
Shen Jing clapped her hands and cheered. “Those who do bad things will always be punished.”
Zhuang Liu didn’t say much. He had been busy all day and was a little tired. Shen Jing could tell that he was tired. She said, “You should rest for a while. I’ll call you when dinner is ready.”
“Sure.” Zhuang Liu nodded.
After returning to his room, he told Tan Rou about Zhuang Shang and his son being detained. Tan Rou sent him a fireworks emoji.
Zhuang Liu’s lips curled up unconsciously and he replied to her with an emoticon.
After a while, Tan Rou told him that she would come to perform acupuncture on Zhuang Yan the next day. In two days, she would have to end her vacation and go back to class.
Zhuang Liu also hoped to cure his father as soon as possible. Without any resistance now, it was time for him to wake up.
His father’s condition was not optimistic. If he did not receive treatment soon, he might be in a vegetative state for the rest of his life.
Tan Rou came in the afternoon. After giving Zhuang Yan acupuncture, she took out the newly developed medicinal oil. “Auntie, this is for Uncle’s massage. It can soften the blood vessels and promote blood circulation.”
Shen Jing thanked her. “Xiao Rou, thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, our family would have fallen apart by now.”
Tan Rou glanced at Zhuang Liu, her eyes full of smiles. “Auntie, this is what I should do.”
Shen Jing asked Tan Rou to stay for a meal. After the meal, Zhuang Liu drove Tan Rou back. This was the first time Zhuang Liu drove Tan Rou back after knowing her for so long. In order to ensure the safety of driving, Zhuang Liu began to practice driving after his legs recovered. He could finally send Tan Rou back to school.
Tan Rou sat in the front passenger seat. This was also the first time she sat in the front passenger seat of Zhuang Liu’s car. Usually, when Xiao Mo drove, she would sit in the back seat with Zhuang Liu. Today, sitting here, it seemed like she had a different experience. It was like a married couple. The husband was driving while the wife sat in the passenger seat.
“Xiao Rou, we’re here.” Zhuang Liu stopped the car. “I’ll go back after a some time.”
Tan Rou smiled. “It’s okay. I can wait for you..”
