Chapter 198: The Old Matriarch is Failing

I must think of a way to let Xiao Huan live this life safely and without danger.

I found Zhuge Yue and asked what the Zhuge family had said to the Zheng family that could make the Zheng family cancel this engagement.

Zhuge Yue was initially unwilling to tell me, but she couldn't stand me pestering her. Zhuge Yue couldn't take it anymore and said helplessly to me: "To tell you the truth, the reason your engagement could be canceled and couldn't be formed is because you already have an engagement!"

Hearing her words, I was stunned, clearly not understanding: "What do you mean? I already have an engagement? Who? Me? Who am I engaged to?"

Zhuge Yue smiled and said: "Of course it’s your engagement, otherwise how could the Zheng family cancel this idea!"

"Holy crap, I have an engagement, I don't know it myself, but instead your Zhuge family knows I have an engagement? This is too outrageous, right?" I said, unable to believe it.

This matter was indeed a bit outrageous. I didn't even know who my parents were, but I was already engaged by someone else. However, the Zhuge family actually knew about this engagement, which made me have to suspect what the Zhuge family wanted to do.

I looked at Zhuge Yue on the side and asked coldly: "What is your Zhuge family’s purpose? Why do you know about my engagement? And was your meeting me before intentional?"

Seeing my unusually excited appearance, Zhuge Yue didn't have any reaction and still said calmly: "Don't be excited. I can't tell you much about this matter. In short, you have to believe that I won't make things difficult for you, and our Zhuge family doesn't have any thoughts of doing anything to you!"

Although I heard Zhuge Yue say this, I was still very suspicious in my heart. Regarding these actions of the Zhuge family, I felt they must have a purpose, otherwise why would they help me again and again? And they themselves were a bit mysterious, which made me have to be suspicious.

Regarding Xiao Huan’s matter, I originally wanted to ask Zhuge Yue for advice, but I felt it was better to forget it. I felt I was too dependent on the Zhuge family, which was not very good.

But these days the Old Matriarch didn't pay much attention to me, and Xiao Huan cried all day and didn't pay much attention to me either, as if she had lost interest in me. Although it was much quieter, I suddenly felt like something was missing after Xiao Huan’s pestering was gone, as if I were particularly cheap.

The Old Matriarch of the Zheng family’s health was getting worse day by day these days, sometimes even particularly weak, and the doctor even said she wouldn't live long. This turned the whole Zheng family upside down because everyone knew that once the Old Matriarch of the Zheng family fell, the next step would be the division of power. No need to ask, these uncles and aunts of the Zheng family were all waiting for this. They couldn't wait for the Old Matriarch of the Zheng family to die early so they could take over the industry.

The Old Matriarch of the Zheng family naturally knew about these things. She was failing now, and the only thing she was worried about in her heart was Xiao Huan. She knew that once she passed away, Xiao Huan’s situation would be quite dangerous. No matter who she gave the industry to, Xiao Huan’s situation would be very awkward. Although she was very unwilling, she still found me.

The Old Matriarch of the Zheng family was lying on the hospital bed and wanted to summon me. I also knew that the Old Matriarch of the Zheng family must have something to find me for, so I hurried to the hospital. However, on the way to the hospital, I suddenly encountered a group of thieves. These people were vicious, clearly wanting to kill me. Fortunately, their strength was not very strong and didn't threaten me. However, I was still quite scared. I didn't expect the Zheng family’s affairs to be so dangerous and even involve life-threatening danger. And what was excessive was that the Zheng family actually dared to take action and cause casualties. Although I didn't know who did it, I was sure it was those uncles and aunts of the Zheng family, because now what they didn't want most was for me to see the Old Matriarch of the Zheng family.

I finally broke through the thorns and arrived at the hospital entrance, but found that it had already been surrounded, because this was the Zheng family’s private hospital, and only the Zheng family was there. They blocked the entrance of the hospital and wouldn't let me in. I was furious. I had seen these people before. They were the people under the uncles and aunts of the Zheng family. These people were clearly not wanting me to go in.

I shouted at the group of people in front of me: "What are you doing? The Old Matriarch wants to see me, let me in!"

"Sorry, we didn't receive the news that the Old Matriarch has this message. The Old Matriarch is resting now, no one can disturb her!"

Hearing these words, I was furious and wanted to take action to rush in, but these people were blocking the front. These people were all figures under the uncles and aunts of the Zheng family, and each of them had strength. If I forced my way in, I wouldn't necessarily get any advantage.

Just at this moment, Xiao Huan suddenly rushed over from the hospital and shouted at these people: "You all stop for me, Grandma wants to see Brother Zheng Yun, you hurry up and let me go!"

These people seemed to be unable to hear this, pretending not to know, standing in place and still blocking.

Xiao Huan shouted angrily: "What are you doing? Let me go!"

"Sorry, Little Miss, we didn't receive the order, we won't let go!"

Hearing these people’s words, Xiao Huan was not light, Xiao Huan said anxiously to me: "Brother Yun, Grandma is not going to make it, we must go in quickly!"

Seeing Xiao Huan anxious, I hardened my heart and decided to rush in directly. I shouted angrily at these people: "Are you going to let go or not?"

These people didn't pay attention to my words at all. I saw that the warning was ineffective and took action directly. Both sides exchanged blows. Just as the other side was about to rush over, someone suddenly blocked the front. I knew this person, and everyone present knew him. It was the expert of the Zheng family. He scoffed and said: "All stop for me, the Old Matriarch wants to see Zheng Yun, you all let go for me!"

These people all knew the person in front of them. Although they all received orders, they were not easy to block in front. One of them wanted to come forward, but the other side gave a look, which scared these people to retreat several steps, not daring to come forward. Seeing this, Xiao Huan and I hurriedly entered the hospital.

Arriving at the door of the ward, I saw the Old Matriarch of the Zheng family lying on the bed, her face ugly, clearly dying, and it was estimated that it was a matter of time.

Xiao Huan and I hurriedly arrived at the hospital bed. The Old Matriarch of the Zheng family looked at me, then looked at Xiao Huan, and said weakly to me: "Yang Yun, I’m not going to make it, Xiao Huan is entrusted to you. Although you are not engaged, you know, Xiao Huan likes you the most, you must take good care of her!" ===== CHAPTER 199 =====
