Chapter 1339: Chapter 1340: Breaking Off the Father-Son Relationship Chapter 1339: Chapter 1340: Breaking Off the Father-Son Relationship After all these years, because he protected that woman Duan Qingqing and doted on her, believed in her, to what extent had he subjected Meng Xinian to coldness and injury?
She did have a small heart, and just wanted to take this little revenge.
At the moment, Meng Chaojunâs head was splitting with pain, and as he watched Chiang Xiao walk past him without even calling out to him, he wanted to call out to her but felt utterly shamefaced.
And when he thought of the affair with Duan Qingqing, his vision darkened in waves.
Chiang Xiao went straight back to her room, closed the door and didnât bother with anything outside.
Meng Chaojun turned around and also made his way upstairs step by step.
Watching his difficult steps, Old Meng couldnât help but call out, âChaojun, are you still feeling the headache?â
Meng Chaojun didnât answer him.
Old Meng turned and grasped Meng Xinianâs hand, speaking with a mixture of urgency and sorrow, âXinian, itâs all grandpaâs fault, every bit of it. But no matter what, you canât punish your father with his health, go and coax LittleâŠâ
âGrandpa, the ones punishing him with his body are you and himself, not Little,â Meng Xinian said coldly. âDo you know how hard Little worked to find medicine in the deep mountains, to dig it up? Do you know how much trouble it is for her to cook the medicine, bottle it up and send it here? Do you know how precious her medicine is?â
Old Mengâs face drooped, heavy with guilt.
He knew, he had known it.
But, was it so wrong for them to look for other opportunities?
âLittle is only receiving this because she is my fiancĂ©e, but she doesnât owe you anything. Leave her alone. Let Meng Chaojun be hospitalized and receive chemotherapy.â
Meng Xinian said this, pulled his hand away and too turned to go upstairs.
âXinian!â
As he watched his back walking away without looking back, Old Mengâs form also swayed, and a profound bitterness engulfed him.
Why did this house no longer feel like a home?
He was left alone on the entire first floor.
The night wind blew in, and gradually a chill settled in Old Mengâs heart.
The next day, without their knowledge, Meng Xinian and Chiang Xiao had already left.
Their room was still locked. It seemed to tell them that even though they were gone, this place was still theirs.
Chiang Xiao had also asked Meng Xinian what if Meng Chaojun really couldnât be saved without her medicine.
Meng Xinian said, âYou have already given medicine.â
It took several days for Chiang Xiao to truly grasp the meaning of Meng Xinianâs words.
She was secretly alarmed.
How much trust Tyrant Meng had in the efficacy of her medicine!
His meaning was that she had already given so much medicine, and Meng Chaojun had drunk so much of it, that it was very likely Meng Chaojun wouldnât die so easily.
However, after returning, Meng Xinian only stayed at their home in City M for a few days before he had training assignments again, and for more than half a month he didnât return.
Chiang Xiao asked Chu Liang to inquire about the news from Capital City.
She heard bits and pieces in succession.
Gu Xin was sentenced to seven years in prison.
Father Duan suffered a stroke and Mother Duan took him back home, where she allegedly beat and scolded him daily. Duan Qingqing returned to live at home, but she stayed inside every day, almost never showing her face, and sometimes neighbors could hear Mother Duan scolding her terribly.
Duan Feian had disappeared without a trace, the Kuang Family searched for him to no avail and went ahead to file for a divorce by force.
In short, the Duan Family was utterly ruined.
As for the Meng Family, they seemed to be no better off.
Meng Chaojun was admitted to the Alliance District Hospital and began chemotherapy.
Old Meng stayed home every day, no longer venturing out.
âThere are rumors in Capital City that Officer Meng might sever the father-son relationship with Meng Chaojun,â Chu Liang told Chiang Xiao.
