Chapter 216: 161 Qi Duidui: No one dares to trouble my people.
On the way back to the hospital room, Jiang Jinsang kept looking for the right opportunity to clear the air with Tang Yunxian, but he was either on the phone or sending messages, leaving no chance for a conversation.
Nearing the door of the hospital room, Tang Yunxian turned to look at him.
“Uncle Tang,” Jinsang said, maintaining a very respectful demeanor.
“The old man just had surgery and is still recovering, so don’t bring this up yet. I’ll find the right moment to inform him,” Tang Yunxian said.
Jiang Jinsang forced a smile. What was even happening?
Due to Old Tang’s recent surgery, the Tang family stayed overnight to watch over him while the others left.
The Jiang family’s grandmother was at the hospital around the clock too. On the way back, she leaned back in her seat, removed her reading glasses, pinched the bridge of her nose, and although she looked tired, she couldn’t hide her happiness. “Xiaowu, once your grandfather Tang feels better, we’re going to visit the Tang family to ask for a marriage.”
“But with the New Year coming soon, if we want to settle things before then, there isn’t much time.”
“Although it’s been really busy lately, everything has gone smoothly. Later, I need to go to the temple to give thanks, and maybe have Master Pudu select an auspicious date.”
…
Jiang Jinsang rubbed his fingers and said nothing. At this moment, he really couldn’t bear to disappoint his grandmother by telling her that Mr. Tang was secretly planning to “break up” him and Wanwan.
At the hospital,
Old Tang woke up after 11 PM. Though he had been pampered recently, his face was still pale after surgery, and with several big incisions on his body, he looked as though he had narrowly escaped death. The anesthetic had worn off, and even though he was using a pain pump, he kept groaning with discomfort throughout his body.
Zhongqing stayed the night at the hospital and didn’t go home until 4 AM, only after checking on the patient and ensuring that Tang Wan and the others could rest easy with some precautionary advice for the day.
Many people didn’t sleep well that night.

The next morning, the earliest arrival wasn’t Jiang Jinsang but Ruan Mengxi, who brought breakfast as she had to rush to work before dawn.
“How did you get here?” Tang Wan looked pale after several days of worry.
“I was too busy yesterday and you didn’t let me come over last night,” whispered Ruan Mengxi. “How is grandfather Tang?”
“He’s doing well, just recovering from the surgery.”
“I bought some breakfast; have a bit,” Ruan Mengxi glanced at the sleeping old man. “I’ve been so busy lately. Once I finish, I’ll come to the hospital to keep you company.”
