Chapter 1074 - Chapter 1074: Asking the Moon on the Wind (159) (2/2)

Xu Chengfeng did not explain further since he was obviously excluded from the ward.

No one in this world was a fool, let alone a shrewd person like Xu Yuan. After all, there were too many coincidences. After all, she could still sense the changes in her daughter.

Even if they didn’t dare to believe some of the guesses, they had already begun to carefully avoid them.

Xu Yuan took another deep look at him and walked in.

Xu Chengfeng stood quietly on the other side of the aisle with one hand in his trouser pocket.

When Ainte called, Xu Chengfeng picked up the phone. He glanced at the caller ID and put it to his ear. After a moment of silence, he said,””I understand.”

He put down his phone and looked at the ward again.

The tightly shut door was like a huge barrier in front of him. He used to be so careful that he did not want to step in. Now, his heart ached, he was worried, and he was anxious, but he was completely isolated outside the door.

*****

Five days later.

The matter with the Xu family was basically settled, and the relatives and friends who came to attend the funeral had also left. Other than losing an old man who was over 80 years old and died of illness, the Xu family seemed to be no different.

Although there were still a few directors in the Xu Group who were secretly stirring up trouble, they had no way to start because of Xu Chengfeng’s concealment.

Even though they kept talking about their family background, Xu Chengfeng’s methods and the pressure that the KP Group exerted on the Xu Corporation were not something that the directors could handle.

For five consecutive days, he had sent Xu Chengfeng alone to the Xu family to settle everything, but he couldn’t settle himself.

“Boss, you haven’t had much rest these past few days. I’ve heard from the hospital that Zuo Yue’s health has improved a lot. She can get out of bed and walk a few steps now and then, and she’s eating more. Everything is getting better, so don’t worry anymore.”Ainte pushed open the office door and walked in. He saw Xu Chengfeng reading a few documents on his tablet. As he read, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows. For a moment, he could not help but persuade him.

Xu Chengfeng lowered his hand from between his eyebrows and looked at the tablet in his hand again. He raised his eyes and looked at him indifferently.”When will she be discharged?”

After a pause, Ainte said softly,”I’m not sure about that yet. Mrs. Zuo has been very strict with the hospital recently. She used Zuo Yue’s recent emotional instability as an excuse to prevent us from visiting her. Even the news from the hospital was barely found out after asking around and using some connections. Boss, Mrs. Zuo seems to have deliberately cut off the relationship between you and Zuo Yue.”

Xu Chengfeng did not say anything at first. After a moment, he put down the tablet and raised his hand to rub the space between his eyebrows again. The crease between his eyebrows still did not melt.

” It’s just some clues and suspicions. It’s precisely because of this suspicion that she would rather kill the wrong person than give Zuo Yue and me any other chance. From a mother’s point of view, what she did was not wrong.”Xu Chengfeng commented.

Ainte’s lips twitched.” You’re decisive. It’s been hard on you, Boss. You’ve been avoiding the little girl before. Now that the little girl’s body is in such a state, it’s difficult for you to even take a look at her. I see that you haven’t been sleeping or resting for the past few days. You often look at Zuo Yue’s photo on your phone and you’re in a daze…I say, Boss, is it that hard to admit your feelings for that little girl? When we went to A City back then, it was clearly not just because of Old Master Xu’s death. You didn’t sleep the night you received her call. Why did you…”

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Chengfeng’s cold gaze swept over him and he immediately shut his mouth.
