A sickly child turned into a rich family's only son
Chapter 115: Years of Companionship
It made Zhou Bu think that these two people who had been together for decades were going to get divorced.
Zhou Bu asked Shang Jing about it, and Shang Jing did not hide it from Zhou Bu, "My father is not in good health. Your mother is very far-sighted, and you still say she has a problem with her brain! It's all for you."
Zhou Bu was stunned. For Shang Jing to say that, there must be something serious wrong with Shang Chan's health.
What surprised Zhou Bu was that his mother actually did it so blatantly. Wasn't it worth her pretending to have such a deep relationship as husband and wife and mother and son after decades of relationship?
Shang Jing still understood Zhou Bu as well as he did when they were children. Even before Zhou Bu asked, Shang Jing knew what Zhou Bu was surprised about.
Shang Jing explained on behalf of Bu Congling: “It’s not as bad as you think…” Shang Jing couldn’t think of how to describe it for a moment.
"......When disaster strikes, everyone flees. This is the result of the couple's discussion. If my father dies suddenly, my mother will be the first heir. If my father makes a will, my mother will have no choice. There will be disputes, so the two of them have already agreed on it."
"We should be frank and straightforward in dividing the couple's property. Mom is afraid of trouble. My dad is now afraid that he will die first and Mom will cause trouble for me."
Zhou Qi thought about it and realized that it was not impossible. His mother had a strong sense of territory and she hated others invading and robbing her things. As for emotional betrayal... that might not be a problem.
Shang Jing went on to say, "And if my dad is lucky enough to survive this operation, he should be able to live another seven to eight years, or even ten years. Mom has already said that if my dad survives the operation, she and he will go abroad to retire completely."
"When my dad dies, she can choose whether to live with you or with me in her old age."
Zhou Bu was very silent. Firstly, he was worried about Uncle Shang's illness, and secondly, Shang Jing's words were really unpleasant to hear.
What's the point of talking about whether he's dead or alive? This kind of person hasn't been kicked out of the house by Uncle Shang. He is indeed an only child!
Shang Jing was still mumbling: "You don't know how happy my dad is. Over the years, the two of them have never put each other first, but now that they are old, they regard each other as the most important."
"A companion in old age, a companion in old age!"
Shang Jing seemed to be feeling somewhat emotional.
Zhou Bu was embarrassed to remind him that how could one divide the family property first when the other person is sick in old age?
But it seems that no one thinks there is anything wrong with what they did.
It is indeed not easy to get Bu Congling to give up his job and promise to retire.
Zhou Bu is not like Shang Jing. Shang Jing is the only son and is older than Zhou Bu. What belongs to Shang Jing will never belong to someone else.
Compared with Shang Jing, Zhou Bu was obviously not that lucky, so the more Ling Congling saw Shang Jing over the years, the more she missed Zhou Bu. She wanted Zhou Bu to be like Shang Jing, naturally and securely accepting their things instead of worrying about being robbed all the time.
As a result, Zhou was worried and lived in fear, as if the slightest disturbance would mean someone was trying to steal her son's things. Even at an old age, she still stayed in the company, guarding against everyone.
No one could persuade her. Her grandfather had a son, and her ex-husband Zhou Yu didn't dare to say a word. Shang Chan did say something, but soon Bu Congling cut off some of the cooperation between Shang and Bu.
By this time everyone could see that Bu Congling was a little neurotic, and coupled with menopause, no one dared to say anything after that.
Zhou Bu had no idea about all this. The mother and son didn't communicate much to begin with, and Chen Ling didn't think this was something Zhou Bu should worry about.
In short, Shang Chan's illness this time seemed to have turned out to be a good thing.
Of course, the prerequisite is that Shang Chan can successfully get off the operating table.
Zhou Wei chatted with Shang Jing for a while, showed concern for Shang Chan's health, and then hung up the phone.
Zhou Wei also learned from Shang Jing that although Shang Chan's tumor was malignant, the cure rate was very high, so he felt relieved.
During this period, Wei Congling also met Zhou Wei alone and gave her shares in Wei's to Zhou Wei. Only then did Zhou Wei really feel that his mother was really planning to retire.
Bu Congling seemed to want to say something else, but in the end he didn't.
Zhou Bu went to visit Shang Chan specially and told Shang Jing that he could tell him if he needed help.
Shang Jing joked, "There's really nothing I need your help with right now, but if you need to hold a funeral, we'll be there then. I heard you've held several this year, so you have a lot of experience."
Zhou Bu looked at Shang Jing and was speechless for a moment. He didn't care about avoiding prophecies at all!
Zhou Qi glanced at Shang Jing and said, "When you die, I will give you a grand funeral!"
"That's great!" Shang Jing said nonchalantly with a grin.
But Zhou didn't know that Shang Jing was also worried. He repeatedly mentioned the result that no one was willing to mention, and he was also making assumptions for himself over and over again.
Zhou Bu was not very concerned about the result. To show his respect, he was present on the day of Shang Chan's surgery.
After several hours of surgery and a long wait, fortunately the news was good news.
Zhou Bu noticed that Shang Jing's shoulders suddenly slumped, then after heaving a sigh of relief, he straightened his back again, walked forward to check on Shang Chan's condition, and negotiated with the doctor.
Bu Congling also took a long breath and closed her eyes. For the past few hours, she had been maintaining the same posture, sitting there staring at the door of the operating room, motionless.
After Shang Chan recovered, he and Bu Congling took the luggage they had packed long ago and boarded a plane to go abroad.
On the day they left, Zhou Bu specially brought his two children to see them off.
This was Bu Congling's first time meeting Xinyi.
In front of the plane, Shang Chan and Bu Congling stood together, surrounded by Shang Jing and his family. Bu Congling looked at Xinyi curiously for a few times, and finally said strangely: "Why don't you look like your father?"
Shang Chan's originally loving smile froze, and he secretly pushed Bu Congling from behind. Bu Congling glared at him imperceptibly, then took out two files, one for each of the two children.
Although Zhou Wei was a little helpless, how should he put it? It seemed that he had gotten used to it.
Just like that, before leaving Zhou Bu, he deliberately touched Xin Bai's head a little more, probably because Xin Bai really looked like Zhou Bu.
Shang Chan couldn't help but push Xin Yi's head again. Seeing that she really didn't want to pay attention to him, he had to go forward and touch Xin Yi's head. Each of them touched her once. This time it was fair.
Zhou Wei noticed this small detail and couldn't help laughing. Uncle Shang has always been a good man, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to live with his mother for so many years.
Whether he was young, heroic and full of career ambitions, or old, menopausal, determined to protect the family property for his son, he adapted well.
Zhou Bu watched the two of them getting on the plane, and sincerely hoped that they could grow old together and stay together for a hundred years.
