Chapter 174 174: Spare the Qiu Family!
At this moment, Qiu Qianyu felt that she was happy.
Incredibly happy!
Happiness, at times, comes rather easily. Being content and cherishing those around you is the greatest happiness.
Just as Jiang Chuan was about to get up to feed Qiu Qianyu some porridge, a sudden commotion came from outside the hospital room.
"Don't care about me, let me go, let me die! Let me die!"
The noise outside was chaotic; it seemed like someone was trying to jump off the building to commit suicide.
"Grandma! It's Grandma!"
Qiu Qianyu suddenly opened her beautiful eyes wide; she instantly turned over and sat up from the bed, and then hurriedly rushed out the door.
Jiang Chuan obviously heard it too. The shouting outside was indeed Chang Lan.
What madness is this old woman up to, not taking care of her health?
Jiang Chuan frowned, worried that Qiu Qianyu might meet with some mishap, hurriedly put down the porridge bowl, and followed her out.
Outside was the hospital corridor, and at the window at the end of the corridor, Old Mrs. Chang Lan was struggling desperately, shouting out loud.
"Don't stop me, let me go die! The Qiu Family is finished, I'm too ashamed to face the ancestors of the Qiu Family, let me go and die!"
Hmm? It seems this old lady is contemplating jumping off the building!
Heh, that's somewhat amusing.
Jiang Chuan didn't take it to heart at all, but Qiu Qianyu exclaimed and hurried over, grabbing Chang Lan in a tight embrace.
"Grandma, Grandma! You can't die, you can't die!"
Qiu Qianyu tightly held on to Chang Lan's legs, fearful that she might continue trying to jump.
Chang Lan struggled with all her might, still shouting, "Let me go die, I already have no face to continue living, the Qiu Family is finished, how can I face the ancestors of the Qiu Family?"
No matter how much everyone tried to persuade her, Chang Lan continued her struggle and cries.
Jiang Chuan walked over at this point and calmly said a sentence.
"Let her go. If she wants to die, no one can stop her."
Chang Lan turned around, her eyes glaring at Jiang Chuan, angrily saying, "Hillbilly, what do you mean by that?"
"Nothing, just find it laughable."
Jiang Chuan said indifferently, "The Qiu Family is finished, and instead of reflecting on why the Qiu Family failed, you think of dying here as a solution. Isn't it laughable?"
"You keep saying you can't face the ancestors of the Qiu Family, but do you think by committing suicide you'll be able to face them?"
Chang Lan was rendered speechless by Jiang Chuan's retort, all she could do was let out a heavy humph.
Of course, she didn't jump anymore. Chang Lan's face turned livid, glared fiercely at Jiang Chuan, and turned back to her hospital room.
Qiu Qianyu stayed with Chang Lan for a long time, and when she returned to her own hospital room, her eyes were red.
"What's wrong, did that old woman bully you again?" Jiang Chuan asked with concern.
"No."
Qiu Qianyu shook her head, speaking somewhat mournfully, "Grandma's life hasn't been easy."
"Back when Grandpa passed away, the family faced a heap of difficulties. It was Grandma who led the Qiu Family through those tough days, slowly bringing the family out of hardship."
"Seeing Grandma like this now, it really makes me feel awful."
"I don't even know who the Qiu Family has offended. If I knew, I'd be willing to apologize to them on behalf of Grandma, to beg them to spare the Qiu Family."
As Qiu Qianyu spoke, tears fell down her face.
Jiang Chuan couldn't help but feel moved in his heart.
This truly is a kind-hearted girl. Despite the Qiu Family's harsh treatment, she repays evil with good, always considering them her family.
Enough, in that case, we'll spare the Qiu Family!
Jiang Chuan couldn't bear to see Qiu Qianyu sad and tearful anymore, so he took out his phone and quietly sent a WeChat message to Li Hu.
"Let the Qiu Family go!"
"Yes, boss!"
Li Hu's reply was succinct and straightforward, he didn't ask why.
Because he always did so.
For whatever the boss said, he never questioned, only executed it decisively.
