Chapter 537: Chapter 538: Finding Grandma
After Xia Yangyang left, her legs were still trembling as if she had just fought a tough battle.
All these years, only when facing Gu Qichen, did Xia Yangyang feel such cowardice and timidity.
But in the end, she managed to stand her ground in his presence.
Gu Qichen had changed, he was no longer the seemingly cold but warm-hearted Gu Qichen of the past.
The man he is now, his heart was just as hard and cold as his exterior.
Xia Yangyang didn’t know how to face him anymore.
In reality, she didn’t have to come here.
She was fully capable of finding her grandmother by herself.
Yet, she still came.
Xia Yangyang dared not analyze her own heart, for fear of admitting the truth.
She was afraid of the simple desire to see him.
However, once again seeing Gu Qichen, it made her more determined to give up on him.
Gu Qichen has always minded the matter about their child; she absolutely cannot let Gu Qichen know about Xia Ye’s existence.
Now, she needs to quickly settle her affairs and disappear from his sight.
Only then can Xia Yangyang be at peace.
After Xia Yangyang went out, she called Xiao Wu who was far away in Manhattan.
Xiao Wu responded, “That’s not difficult, give me half an hour.”
As predicted, half an hour later, Xiao Wu found the current location of the grandmother.
Xia Yangyang didn’t expect everything to go so smoothly.
If Gu Qichen had intentionally hidden their grandmother, Xiao Wu wouldn’t have found her so easily.
It turns out that the grandmother is now in a high-end nursing home.
Even though her identity was confidential.
But for Xiao Wu, cracking such cases was as easy as blowing off dust.
In the afternoon, Xia Yangyang arrived at the Peaceful Nursing Home.
This was actually a foreign nursing home, offering almost one-on-one service. Speaking of the exorbitant fees and the fact that common people could not get access to it, it is said that even a mayor would have to wait for years to get in.
When Xia Yangyang entered, her grandmother was watering plants in the courtyard of the nursing home.
She had actually started a small vegetable garden here.
The old woman was delighted to see Xia Yangyang, “NanNan, you finally came to see me.”
Xia Yangyang could not help but tear up.
It had been so long since she heard her grandmother calling her ‘NanNan’.
Xia Yangyang walked over and hugged her grandmother, “Grandma, how did you end up here? I almost couldn’t find you.”
The old woman replied, “Ah Chen brought me here. How could you not know? You’ve been abroad all these years, it’s been a long time since I last saw you. Fortunately, Ah Chen, the boy, often comes to see me and keeps me company.”
The grandmother pretended to hit Xia Yangyang, “Ah Chen is much more useful than you.”
In the past four years, Xia Yangyang indeed had little contact with her grandmother.
Her godfather, however, had regularly passed on news about her grandmother.
Xia Yangyang occasionally managed to talk to her grandmother over the phone, but she never mentioned her divorce with Gu Qichen.
Xia Yangyang was astonished, “In these years, has Gu Qichen often visited you?”
“Yes, once a month. Ah Chen said you’re developing your career abroad and don’t have time to come back. He is filial, often comes to keep this old woman company.”
Xia Yangyang was at a loss for words.
Xia Yangyang hugged the old woman, “I’m sorry, Grandma. I won’t leave you anymore. This time, I came to take you to live with me.”
The old woman, however, grumbled, “Did Ah Chen tell you about my hand tremors? Actually, it’s not a big problem. I know my own body. Ah Chen is just overreacting and insisting on bringing me to the city. The environment here is very good, but I am not used to living here. Tell Ah Chen for me, I want to go back and live in the countryside.”
