Chapter 621: 628 Turning the tables on a plot_1

Qin Muchuan looked at her, his face devoid of any expression.

Only then, he noticed that his grandmother was lying on the bed. He held her wrinkled hand. "Grandma, if you miss me, why don’t you tell me? I would definitely come back!"

The old woman whom they sent for still didn’t show any response.

Qin Muchuan continued, "Feeling sick just because you missed me makes me feel guilty! I’m sorry!"

He let go of grandma’s hand and turned to leave.

Zhou Ziqing hurriedly followed, calling his name as soon as they were outside. "Muchuan!"

Qin Muchuan stopped in his tracks.

Zhou Ziqing caught up to him, "Muchuan, where are you going? Are you going to leave?"

He pursed his thin lips, glaring at her coldly.

Zhou Ziqing was a little scared by his stare. "Muchuan, I..."

"Who allowed you to enter the Qin Family? Are you just that impatient?" He glared at her furiously.

"I..." she shook her head repeatedly.

"If you weren’t here, my grandmother wouldn’t be hospitalized! I’ll tell you this, if anything were to happen to my grandmother, I will never forgive you!" He threatened.

Zhou Ziqing lowered her head. "Then it’s all right if I leave?"

He glanced at her for a few seconds. "Then leave quickly!"

The tone of his voice was like he was shooing away a fly.

Lifting her tear-filled eyes, Zhou Ziqing said, "Qin Muchuan, aren’t you being unreasonable?"

He looked at her mockingly. "So now you don’t want to leave?"

"I can leave, but I absolutely don’t want to be chased away by you. Can’t you reason with me, Qin Muchuan? I didn’t enter the Qin Family as your girlfriend, but as a home tutor for the children. So even if it wasn’t me today, it would’ve been someone else. Why can’t you let me in?"

"It just can’t be you!"

"Why?" She yelled.

Qin Muchuan grabbed her, irritably pressing her against the wall. "Because I can’t allow for misunderstandings to occur. Not with anyone else, not with the children, and not... so that I myself am beyond reproach."

"Haha..." Zhou Ziqing laughed coldly. "You don’t have to sugarcoat it; you’re just scared of Lin Xiangwan misunderstanding."

"What if I’m scared of her misunderstanding?"

Zhou Ziqing cried. "Is this fair to me?"

"I’ve said it before; I’m true to you, but I also have feelings for her. I don’t want to harm either of you!" His eyes didn’t even blink as he confessed his double-mindedness.

"You..."

Qin Muchuan didn’t comfort her. "I’ll go check on my grandmother’s condition. If anything happens to her, I’ll never forgive you!"

With that, he walked into the cardiac surgery director’s office.

"How’s my grandmother?" Qin Muchuan asked.

Since this was a military hospital, all the doctors who held positions knew Qin Muchuan. Coincidentally, the director of the cardiac surgery department knew him quite well. "Our department has observed no issues. She has the same chronic issues as before, nothing severe, just some insufficient blood supply!"

"Then why was she hospitalized? What was her condition when she arrived?" Qin Muchuan asked again.

"Unconscious!"

"Why was she unconscious?" Qin Muchuan asked worriedly. "Didn’t you say she was fine?"

"I’m not sure why she was unconscious. It could be a matter of internal medicine. Perhaps she’s upset about something?" The doctor adjusted his glasses.

"Are you saying my grandmother is pretending?" As her grandson, he understood right away.

"I’m sorry, I didn’t say that. Whether she’s pretending, I can’t tell. All I can say is that she’s fine," the doctor replied.

"I understand!" Qin Muchuan nodded.

"Alright then!"

The moment Qin Muchuan left the ward, the old lady took off her oxygen mask, sat up and said, "I can’t stand this thing, it suffocates me!"

Xu Feng’e anxiously tried to put the mask back on. "Please, keep it on, otherwise Muchuan will find out!"

"So what if he finds out!"

"Mom, please bear with it a little longer. We have to get him to come back home first!"

The old lady glanced at her daughter-in-law. "Do you really think this Zhou Ziqing would work?"

"Of course, she’s pretty, has a high education level, and is the woman Muchuan genuinely likes. There’s no one else who could provoke Lin Xiangwan more!"

"Hmm!" The old lady nodded.

Lin Xiangwan was too arrogant, she didn’t value her grandson or the Qin Family at all. The old lady decided she must teach Lin Xiangwan a lesson she would never forget, to make her regret, anxious, and beg to come back to the Qin Family!

So even if she didn’t like Zhou Ziqing, she should make good use of her!

When Qin Muchuan returned, grandma pretended to be sick again and put the oxygen mask back on.

Seeing his grandmother’s act, Qin Muchuan felt uneasy. With her age, anything could happen at any time. Even if it was a pretense this time, who knows about the next?

"Chuanchuan, come here!" The old lady managed to remove her oxygen mask again, weakly calling out to her grandson.

Qin Muchuan drew close, sitting beside her on the bed. "I’m here, just say what you need."

"Bring the children back. I miss them!"

"...Alright!" Qin Muchuan replied with a hoarse voice.

Grandma also softened her attitude a lot. "If you don’t like Miss Zhou, we can continue looking for someone else. But for now, let her take care of things."

"Hmm..."

This was exactly what Qin Muchuan wanted.

Grandma smiled. "Does that mean you agree?"

"Hmm..."

"Then today when school finishes, bring my two great-grandsons back, I want to go home!" This time, the old lady spoke with much more confidence.

She was overjoyed!

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

The two children returned to the Qin Family’s ancestral residence, but they were confused. "Why do we have to come back? Weren’t we not supposed to?"

Qin Muchuan patted the children’s heads. "You two should stay at the villa for now and listen to your great-grandma."

"I don’t want to!" Ranran frowned.

"Me neither!"

"This is just temporary. Your dad will be busy and won’t have time to take care of you two."

The two children looked at each other.

"What is Dad busy with?"

"Chasing after your mom!" Qin Muchuan told them in a whisper, making a ’shh’ gesture, asking them not to shout about it.

The two children nodded eagerly, indicating their understanding and excitement.

Then, Qin Muchuan found Zhou Ziqing to give her a warning. "Since you’ve entered the Qin Family’s home, you can stay. It’s also good for you to get acquainted with the children. But you can’t mistreat them. If they say anything bad about you, I won’t forgive you!"

Zhou Ziqing was very upset. "You can’t just listen to the children’s words. What if they purposely say bad things about me?"

"They’re just a few years old, and they’re very kind. How could they possibly falsely accuse you?" Qin Muchuan didn’t allow her any excuses. "If you are worried about being falsely accused, you should leave."

"No, I’ll stay. Fine, I’ll treat the children well, so they’ll like me as soon as possible!"
