Chapter 179: Saving Life

Qi Rong sighed in his heart——

  Why did my son insist on coming back in these two days?

  He hadn't been home for more than ten years. He hadn't been home a few years earlier, a few years later, but he had to come back this year!

  Not only did he come back this year, but he also came back exactly in the two days when Lin Fu was about to die!

  Qi Heng was already not close to his father because of Lin Fu's matter. If he happened to see Lin Fu die, you can imagine how angry he would be.

  You know what, Qi Rong felt quite scared when he thought about this.

  "Answer me, where is my mother? I want to see her!" Qi Heng said angrily, his eyes red.

  "Well, don't be anxious. Look, they came without you notifying us, and we weren't prepared, were we? Your mother is not in the city these days, so she can't rush back."

  Qi Rong patted his son's shoulder with a loving fatherly look, "Since you are here, stay at home for a few days. It doesn't matter if you can't see your mother this time. You will definitely be able to see her when you come back after a while."

  He had thought it through. The best way to deal with this matter was to delay it and send Qi Heng away first. Then, when he came back in a few years, he would tell him about Lin Fu's death.

  By that time, the person would have been dead for several years, and the mansion would have been taken care of by himself. Even if Qi Heng was angry, he would not be able to find any clues, so the case would naturally be left unresolved.

  By then, no matter how much I try to comfort my son and speak to him from the bottom of my heart, would I still be afraid that he would not be on the same page with me?

  Lin Fu had already become a useless person. It made no difference whether a mother like that was alive or dead. She would be of no help to Qi Heng.

  But he is different. He is the master of the Qi Mansion, and the head of the family is also his brother who has always been close to him. As long as Qi Heng follows him well, even if his status in the mansion is not as good as his younger brother Qi Xu, he will be far superior to others!

  Therefore, hiding it from him was also for his own good!

  After Qi Rong finished speaking, he saw that his son was unmoved, his eyes were still red, like a wolf cub about to explode.

  He felt a little scared in his heart, but soon he straightened his face, "Besides, I haven't held you accountable yet! As a junior, you actually threatened your aunt and broke into her room without permission. This is outrageous!"

  "Aunt? Is she worthy?" Qi Heng sneered, "I don't have an aunt who would climb into bed with her brother-in-law!"

  If he didn't have so much to do tonight and didn't want to cause any trouble, then what he said just now would have been more than just a threat.

  "Bastard!" Qi Rong's face changed and his hand was raised high.

  Bed-climbing brother-in-law, this sentence even scolded me!

  In front of so many people, Qi Rong felt his face burning.

  This rebellious son, if I don't teach him a lesson, I will become a joke!

  Qi Heng saw his actions, raised his eyebrows slightly, and just raised his hand to hold his wrist.

  The father who once seemed tall and mighty in his eyes was now just someone he could control with just a stretch of his hand. The gap in strength between the two had long been reversed.

  Qi Rong didn't slap him in the end.

  I still feel a little guilty, and my son is taller than me. Holding my hands up... is quite tiring.

  "Forget it, I won't bother with you this time, but there won't be a next time. Just go down!" He withdrew his hand and said in a cold voice.

  Qi Ye and the others also spoke up and tried to persuade them.

  "Heng'er, he is your father after all!"

  "Yeah, there's no such thing as an overnight grudge between father and son. Let's talk it out nicely."

  "Your mother...she just went out to visit an old friend and is not at home. You should come back to see her after some time."

  "Yes, she will come back sooner or later, why do you have to be so obsessed with today?"

  "Such a big thing has happened in the mansion now, isn't it more important than your search for your mother? Qi Heng, are you still an ignorant child?"  

  Under the gaze of everyone, Qi Heng pursed his lips and seemed to feel a little guilty.

  "Well, today's family matters are more important, so I won't ask any more questions."

  Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him turn and leave.

  "Arong, look at the trouble you've caused!" Qi Ye sighed and looked at his brother, "I advised you not to look for that Zhang Qinmiao, but you refused to listen. Now our family is really in turmoil."

  Qi Ye actually did not approve of Qi Rong's treatment of his first wife, and he even took his first wife's cousin as his concubine.

  This is too rude!

  But this little brother has been spoiled, he doesn't listen to anyone, and as long as he gets horny, he doesn't care who the cousin is.

  Since I can't persuade him, I can only let him do it.

  But doing so also has its troubles. You see, now Qi Heng will have a rift with him!

  Qi Rong looked embarrassed, "I'm his father. Do I need my son's consent if I want to find a woman? Anyway, it's too late to talk about this now that the thing has been done."

  Qi Ye glared at him helplessly and waved his hand, "Go away, go back to your room, you reek of alcohol."

  You can't rely on him for any serious work, and he would just be an eyesore here.

  Qi Rong was eager to leave quickly, so he chuckled when he heard that, then trotted away with his robe in hand.

  This look made many members of the Qi family frown and look disgusted.

  Qi Heng hurried back and returned to the guest room again, "How is my mother?"

  He had just performed that play in order to distance himself from what happened tonight.

  The more anxious he acted and the angrier he was about his mother's affairs, the more it seemed that he had nothing to do with what happened tonight or in the other courtyard.

  After the performance, he successfully made the people in the mansion tired of him, and even made Qi Rong avoid him.

  In this way, no one will come to his house next time, and he can also buy himself some time where no one will disturb him, which is just right for him to spend time with his mother.

  "Don't worry, the medicine has been given to her. Look, her complexion has improved a lot." Chen Lan said.

  Lin Fu was lying on the bed in the guest room at this time. She had a lot of white hair on her head and was very thin. She looked sick and weak.

  But now it is much better than in the other courtyard. There is finally some color on my mother's face, and it is no longer that gray color.

  "Thank you very much, and thank you, Junior Sister."

  Qi Heng was almost in tears.

  He didn't dare to imagine how much suffering his mother had endured over the years, nor did he dare to think about what bad things would happen if he hadn't come, or had come alone.

  Fortunately, I had my master accompanying me all the way, and fortunately, I had my junior sister to help me, which made things go so smoothly!

  "We've gotten through it all, don't be sad." Liu Feng sighed and patted Qi Heng's shoulder. "Your mother was in serious financial trouble before, but now her life has been saved. The rest will be slowly made up in our Xianlai Sect in the days ahead."

  "That's right. Xianlai Sect is a blessed place. Aunt will definitely get better and be healthy after she goes there." Du Yue also said.

  Qi Heng nodded, stood up and bowed to everyone, "Qi Heng is grateful for your kindness today."
