After Divorce: Why My Aloof Ex Starts Chasing Me?-Chapter 114 The Scholarly Family

Shen Qingqing goes to the hospital for psychological treatment every week.

Never misses a session.

Although Madam Jiang accompanies her every time, Elder Jiang and Father Jiang are still worried.

Since there’s nothing better to do at home, Elder Jiang insists on accompanying Shen Qingqing to the hospital.

"In the past, Qingqing accompanied me, now I accompany her. She is my granddaughter. As long as I can still walk, I won’t let her go to the hospital alone."

Madam Jiang is exasperated, "She’s not alone, I’m accompanying her!"

Elder Jiang replies, "That’s different."

Madam Jiang argues, "There are lots of people at the hospital, it’s chaotic. What if she gets bumped or hurt? Why don’t you stay at home and wait for news, or I could bring Qingqing back in a couple of days to play chess with you so you can see her situation for yourself."

Elder Jiang refuses, "One thing at a time, I’m going to accompany her to the hospital today."

Elder Jiang is quite stubborn.

Father Jiang’s temperament is exactly the same as Elder Jiang’s.

The same goes for Jiang Zhixun!

Madam Jiang finally understands that this family’s stubbornness is inherited.

And it’s getting worse with each generation.

By the time it reaches Zhixun, he’s not just stubborn, but he doesn’t know how to appease his wife either.

Truly, each generation is worse than the last!

Madam Jiang: "I’m sure Qingqing wouldn’t want you to go."

"Are you a worm in her belly?"

Madam Jiang isn’t a worm in Shen Qingqing’s belly, but she doesn’t want Elder Jiang to bump into Doctor Zhou.

Otherwise, with Elder Jiang’s temperament, he’d definitely try to set them up.

As for his own grandson...that’s not important! He can step aside!

She racks her brain trying to persuade Elder Jiang.

But Elder Jiang has already asked the guard to drive the car.

After thinking about it, he feels it’s too much fuss, which might pressure Qingqing.

Elder Jiang: "Let’s ride the bus."

Madam Jiang feels a headache coming on.

"Dad, stop making a fuss."

Elder Jiang glares, "How is it making a fuss if I accompany my granddaughter to the hospital? Are you hiding something from me?"

Madam Jiang waves her hands repeatedly, "No."

Elder Jiang asks, "Then why are you blocking me?"

Failing to persuade him, Madam Jiang ends up taking Elder Jiang out the door.

Just as Madam Jiang predicted, upon seeing Zhou Hansheng, Elder Jiang puts on a look of admiration.

Zhou Hansheng comes over to greet them but leaves hurriedly because of an emergency with a patient.

Although it was just a brief encounter, Elder Jiang’s sharp gaze had thoroughly observed Zhou Hansheng’s appearance and way of speaking and acting.

After Shen Qingqing follows the doctor into the treatment room, Elder Jiang mutters under his breath.

"Doctor Xiao Zhou is quite impressive, not worse than that brat Zhixun."

Madam Jiang defends them, "They’re not the same type. Zhixun looks sturdy. Doctor Zhou’s physique isn’t up to par, Zhixun could take on ten of him!"

Elder Jiang argues, "He is just physically strong and mentally simple! Unlike Doctor Zhou, who looks like an intelligent person who uses his brain."

Madam Jiang is frustrated, "Why are you disparaging Zhixun? Apart from mishandling the situation with Qingqing, can you pick out any faults?"

Elder Jiang rests on his cane, sitting on the long bench in the hospital corridor.

As he brings up Jiang Zhixun, his temper flares.

Annoyed, he taps the ground with his cane, then catches himself, realizing this is a hospital, and restrains his urge to shout. freeweɓnovel.cøm

"Why should I exert myself to pick other faults? He bullied Qingqing, and I’ll remember this all my life! Unless I end up in a casket, I will talk about him every day, let’s see if he’s ashamed!"

Madam Jiang’s lip twitches, "Dad, he’s your grandson, you can’t hold grudges overnight."

"No grudge, I just can’t stand him."

Elder Jiang muses, "You all mentioned that the male comrade who likes Qingqing is that Doctor Zhou, right? I think he’s quite decent; his appearance may be lacking, but he looks good in other aspects."

"Unlike Zhixun, who is cold and harsh, and only knows how to jab people in the heart."

"If Qingqing thinks Doctor Zhou is good too, let them try to get to know each other. Qingqing only has a poor memory, no other issues. Zhou Family shouldn’t be too picky."

Really, if they wanted to be picky, they could indeed find something.

And that is Qingqing used to be married to Zhixun.

Elder Jiang’s face grows solemn, "As long as Qingqing has her eyes set on Doctor Zhou, never mind if his family disagrees, even if Doctor Zhou himself is hesitant, I’ll find a way to make him agree!"

Madam Jiang finds it both funny and exasperating, "Dad, that sounds like robbery or being a bandit! Changing to kidnapping now?"

Elder Jiang remains calm, "I just want Qingqing to marry a good person and live some good days. Zhixun wasted her time."

A flash of tears passes through his clouded eyes.

Over a thousand days and nights.

Really, it’s been too long.

Now Qingqing is sick, who knows when she’ll get better.

If only someone would cherish her and live well with her, Qingqing’s illness might improve faster.

Madam Jiang reluctantly reminds him, "Zhixun is still waiting for Qingqing to remarry him."

"Remarry my foot, it’s been months, not a single phone call, probably forgot Qingqing already. Let him continue to shine in the Northwest, Qingqing marries Doctor Zhou, they each go their way, unrelated!"

Elder Jiang has a lot of energy, speaking loud enough that Zhou Hansheng, who is approaching, hears every word.

Zhou Hansheng hadn’t expected someone from the Jiang Family to support him in pursuing Shen Qingqing, leaving him feeling pleasantly surprised.

But thinking about Shen Qingqing’s attitude, most of the joy fades.

Becomes a faint ache.

Shen Qingqing is an independent-minded woman. If she’s not willing, all the matchmaking in the world won’t matter.

He still has a long way to go.

Upon seeing Zhou Hansheng, Madam Jiang gives Elder Jiang the look.

Better not say any more.

Otherwise, if Comrade Zhou gets excited, he might go and confess to Qingqing.

If Qingqing impulsively agrees to him...

Just thinking about that scenario gives Madam Jiang a headache.

She’s just protective of her own; since her son likes Qingqing, she wants to keep an eye on things!

Standing up to talk to Zhou Hansheng, "Dr. Zhou, we have enough people here, Qingqing won’t be in any trouble. You go ahead and take care of your own business, don’t just keep running over here. What if a patient suddenly looks for you?"

Zhou Hansheng has a great attitude, "I’m off work now, if patients need help, they can find my colleagues, who are all very skilled doctors."

Madam Jiang doesn’t know what to say.

She couldn’t just scold him and drive him away.

Elder Jiang clears his throat, "Doctor Zhou is a native Beijinger too?"

"Yes, my father is a chief editor at a publishing house and used to often deal with Miss Shen. I met Miss Shen through him."

Elder Jiang claps, "Literary family, that’s nice!"

He turns to Madam Jiang and says, "People from families like these are reasonable and high-quality individuals, it’s much more comfortable to be around them."

Madam Jiang disagrees in her heart.

No matter what kind of family, there are good and bad; just because someone’s educated doesn’t mean they’re good.

Some scholars can be very cunning and arrogant.

People are diverse, and you only truly know someone after genuinely interacting with them.

These things, Madam Jiang couldn’t say directly to Zhou Hansheng.

So she goes along blandly, "Literary families are certainly good, is Comrade Zhou still single? We have plenty of young women in the compound, doctors, nurses, artistic soldiers...even pilots, everyone’s talented. How about Aunt introduces someone to you?"
