Chapter 228: Chapter 174: Finally Leaving

The light inside the carriage was dim, but this pink diamond was exceptionally dazzling.

Fu Tingzhou, however, couldn’t seem to let go of the diamond ring, his slender fingers caressing its faceted edges as he reminisced about Tang Xi’s smiling face.

He was somewhat weary, had been drinking, and was buzzed. At this moment, Fu Tingzhou raised his hand to rub his forehead, easing the drunkenness, and said to Guan Yue, "Go to Qingfeng Garden."

Guan Yue nodded, ready to turn left towards Qingfeng Garden, when suddenly, Fu Tingzhou’s phone rang. The man frowned, looking at the caller ID which showed Uncle Lao, "Hello."

On the other end was Housekeeper Lao’s anxious voice, "The old master just suffered from angina and passed out, he’s now in the hospital, Young Master, you should hurry over."

Fu Tingzhou’s brows furrowed tightly, and the alcohol buzz disappeared instantly; he immediately calmed down and instructed Guan Yue, "Go to the First Hospital."

When Fu Tingzhou arrived, Housekeeper Lao and Ji Qingtan were waiting outside the operating room.

Seeing Fu Tingzhou, Ji Qingtan, her eyes filled with tears, took a few steps forward, "Tingzhou."

Fu Tingzhou looked at Housekeeper Lao, "What happened, how did Grandpa suddenly faint?"

Housekeeper Lao glanced at Ji Qingtan, Ji Qingtan’s pupils shifted as Housekeeper Lao sighed and said, "This...the old sir had a recurrence of his chronic condition..."

Fu Tingzhou was no ordinary man; he could clearly see the guilty flicker in Ji Qingtan’s eyes. He furrowed his brows, his gaze hardened, "Uncle Lao, think carefully before you speak!"

Housekeeper Lao glanced at Ji Qingtan.

Ji Qingtan bit her red lips, "It’s my fault. Tonight I was playing chess with Grandpa, and I accidentally mentioned the car accident you were involved in, although it had already been found that the Shu Family was behind it, and you were still hiding it, after Grandpa learned about this he was furious, immediately called Shu Chong’an to question him, then... just after hanging up the phone he passed out."

Fu Tingzhou’s eyes fixed tightly on Ji Qingtan, his cold gaze made Ji Qingtan slightly afraid, but Ji Qingtan still stood upright, not showing any fear on the surface. Instead, with tearful eyes, she looked pitifully at Fu Tingzhou, "Tingzhou, I’m sorry...but...even if I hadn’t said it, Grandpa would have found out anyway, and besides, you had already broken ties with the Shu Family over Tang Xi, ending the cooperation. Grandpa has always been dissatisfied with that... Now that the Shu Family has done something to harm you, Grandpa heard and got furious..."

Ji Qingtan knew in her heart that Fu Tingzhou wouldn’t do anything to her, not just because of their childhood acquaintance, but also because she was his sister-in-law.

Having Fu Yunye as her trump card, she, Ji Qingtan, could act recklessly in the Fu Family, and be near Fu Tingzhou at any moment.

Fu Tingzhou watched Ji Qingtan tear up, but his heart only felt annoyance. Ji Qingtan stepped forward and grabbed his sleeve, which Fu Tingzhou casually flicked off. He then lightly instructed Guan Yue, "Take Vice President Ji back home."

Ji Qingtan biting her lip, "This isn’t the company, I am not some Vice President Ji, I want to stay here until Grandpa comes out safely, Fu Tingzhou you have no right to interfere with my freedom!"

Housekeeper Lao stepped forward, "Madam, you should go back first, with me and the young master here, that’s enough."

At that moment, the operating room door opened, and the doctors and nurses came out.

"The rescue was timely, the old master is fine, he just needs some rest."

Fu Tingzhou followed the medical staff into the hospital room, where he sat down on an accompanying chair.

Looking at Fu Yuanshan lying on the hospital bed.

Housekeeper Lao came over, "Young Master, I’ll keep watch here, you go rest."

He smelled the alcohol on Fu Tingzhou, knowing he must have just come from a dinner party, feeling the discomfort of the alcohol.

Fu Tingzhou waved his hand, "You go back."

Housekeeper Lao, knowing Fu Tingzhou’s temper and nature, sighed and nodded before leaving the room.

Fu Tingzhou looked at the person lying on the hospital bed still unconscious, feeling little emotional attachment to Fu Yuanshan, feeling only respect, a respect for elders, a reverence for the identity of his own grandfather.

Fu Tingzhou had been wandering outside with Qin Jianlan since he was young, sometimes only eating one meal a day, living a few years in poverty. He grew up cold and detached beyond his years, accustomed to this lifestyle.

Until one day, Fu Yuanshan found him.

And brought him back to the Fu Family.

At that time, his father, Fu Zongheng, already had a wife and children; he himself was just a product left behind by Fu Zongheng under a different name, an illegitimate child severely frowned upon by outsiders, his treatment drastically different from his two older brothers.
