Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander novel Chapter 520

Chapter 520: Chapter 547: The Old Man Is Seriously Ill

He smiled faintly and said, "I don’t have to do anything right now; I just need to spread the news about you entangled in pursuing Gu Junming. Then what will Shi Qing do? He won’t want you anymore. You also know what kind of person Zhuang Lin is in our courtyard, very talkative."

Wan Yunhong gritted her teeth angrily, "Are you threatening me?"

"Yes. Whether or not you’ll listen to me is up to you."

Wan Yunhong didn’t speak, her heart full of anger. She didn’t like being coerced and controlled, but given the unstable situation at hand, she couldn’t help but play along, so she smiled, "I thought it was a big deal! Isn’t it just a few words? I didn’t say I wouldn’t agree. You help me, I can help you. We’re both just cooperating."

Liu Gang sneered, "I thought you’d dump me after getting the benefits, thinking I’m useless and quickly ditching me!"

"I’m not that kind of person, you misunderstood. I’m joking, and you scare me like this, too much, right?" Wan Yunhong said with a smile, her voice sweet, as if acting coquettishly, but both Liu Gang and she knew it was an act.

Liu Gang didn’t expose it, laughed and said, "You were really careless at the time, letting people see through your intentions. Gu Junming just doesn’t respond, and now everyone knows. If Shi Qing finds out, it will be trouble, but luckily Gu Junming didn’t want you, otherwise there’d be no chance with Shi Qing either. It’s all fate."

Wan Yunhong heard Liu Gang repeatedly mentioning Gu Junming, knowing he was mocking her, couldn’t act up, just smiled. Liu Gang said, "Let’s settle it this way, tomorrow we’ll have a meal with Shi Qing together. I have no development here, suppressed by Gu Junming and Tian Jian. There’s no future for me here. Might as well change places."

"Where do you want to go?"

"People strive upwards; I want to go to the provincial capital, or northwest could work too. There, real power is held, promotions can come faster, it’s all up to you."

Wan Yunhong turned pale with anger. Such shamelessness, daring to demand! But at this moment she had no choice but to agree.

"I can only put in a word, whether it works or not..."

"I don’t need you to speak for me; I’ll talk to him myself. Just play along, we work well together. I’ll thank you properly for it, such a good relationship?" He said, and then left.

Wan Yunhong snorted, disdainful of his back: dream on going to such a good place! She left too.

For now, stabilize Shi Qing first.

Ever since Fang Guanghui was hospitalized after being beaten, Sun Chan had been much more relaxed, although still picked up and dropped off daily, it was clearly better than before.

Rumor has it Fang Guanghui’s leg just showed slight improvement, then he inexplicably fell from the steps after lying about being in the men’s restroom, worsening the injury; he must continue staying there.

Sun Chan was overjoyed, asking Gu Junming, "Was it Han Dong’s doing?"

Gu Junming smiled, "This time it was likely Wu Dafu’s action."

Han Dong intended to make a move, but Wu Dafu took the initiative. His daughter was nearly killed; he’d let it go? That would be strange! He had people follow, and at that moment, kicked him down.

Anyway, Fang Guanghui knew who was against him, but helpless due to his physical condition, could only endure.

Meanwhile, Liu Enming began thoroughly investigating Fang Guanghui’s business in Shenzhen, determined to find any oddities for proper scrutiny, not letting him continue taking advantage here.

He felt very embarrassed. Yet Wang Guihua, ignorant and unaware, kept making scenes. He was already tired enough, now learning his father was dying. He couldn’t accept it, aged over ten years overnight, standing with Wang Guihua, they looked like people from two generations.

Gu Junming spent some time living in the countryside as a child, not as close with his grandfather.

But Gu Juntao was raised by his grandfather, sharing the deepest bond. Now, knowing his grandfather would pass away, his eyes reddened, and choking up, he said, "I want to take good care of my grandfather, let him enjoy his last life’s moments in happiness. Let him come live at my house."

"How can he go to your place with so little room!" Wang Guihua said, "Let him stay here."

Being a daughter-in-law, if the old man is sick and stays at someone else’s house, wouldn’t she be criticized?

Sun Chan said, "We want to help take care too..."

"Forget it." Gu Zishan waved his hand, "You’re pregnant, what can you do? Just stay put."

Gu Junming also held Sun Chan’s hand, "Listen, don’t worry about this."

Yang Hongying also volunteered to take care of the old man. When she was pregnant and during postpartum, Sun Chan made every effort to take care of her, so now she wouldn’t let Sun Chan suffer, especially since the old man still had a fever. If there’s something contagious, the child could be affected.

Sun Chan, worried about the baby’s safety, could only agree, but suggested hiring a caregiver.

Wang Guihua said, "You’re the most familiar with this; weren’t you a caregiver once? Surely, you can find a good one."
