Chapter 2412: Second Reincarnation (2)
Who knows? Maybe Qiao Nan would feel bad for them and agree.
If Qiao Nan were married to Chen Jun, there was no way that Chen Jun would end up in such a situation. Also, they wouldn’t have to worry about Feng Feng’s upbringing if Qiao Nan were the one taking care of him.
Even if Chen Jun were to pass away, the elders could entrust Qiao Nan with Feng Feng when they left this world.
However, Qiao Zijin wasn’t someone nearly as reliable. Although the elders were still alive and well, they couldn’t help but worry about putting Chen Feng in Qiao Zijin’s hand.
If it weren’t for Chen Jun’s illness and their old age, there was no way the elders would contact Qiao Zijin and send their grandson away. However, it couldn’t be helped that they no longer had the energy to take care of both Chen Jun and Chen Feng.
Chen Jun’s father felt his heart ache in frustration. “Fine, I will settle Feng Feng’s school transfer. He has been busy with his studies, so it wouldn’t be good for him to miss school. You should head back, for now. Come and get Feng Feng after I settle the papers.”
It would be good for Feng Feng to leave a little later.
He had to tell Feng Feng what Qiao Zijin was like so that he could be mentally prepared for what’s to come.
Soon, Chen Feng will be the only one left in the Chen family, and the elders wouldn’t allow Feng Feng to be ruined in Qiao Zijin’s hands.
Qiao Zijin wasn’t too happy to hear that. Why did she have to go through the trouble coming here if she couldn’t take her son with her?
“By the way, are there many people that know about Chen Jun’s condition? Will Feng Feng be bullied in school?”
Qiao Zijin knew that such a disease had the tendency to attract discrimination. If Chen Jun’s conditions got out, Chen Feng would definitely receive unwanted attention.
“Not many.”
That was the only reason the elders decided to let Chen Feng go.
Chen Jun’s father was worried that Chen Jun’s condition would leave trauma in Chen Feng’s childhood.
There was no cure for the disease.
If he were the only son in the family, the elders would stay away from him as well. When they first heard about the condition, the elders were shocked to their cores.
They were afraid.
It took months for Chen Jun to confirm his condition, during which the elders lived together with him. Who knows? What if the disease had passed onto them or their grandson?
Chen Jun was a politician, and the nature of his job meant that he would never return to his position again. After all, his illness could not be cured, so his affairs would eventually be revealed.
The Chen family was told that the disease was only transmitted by blood. Luckily for them, it wasn’t summer, so there weren’t many mosquitoes. Otherwise, the entire Chen family might have been infected.
At this point, there was nothing that Elder Chen could do.
Although he preferred Qiao Nan, he wasn’t shameless enough to ask Qiao Nan for help.
It was Chen Jun that betrayed Qiao Zijin, and Chen Feng wasn’t Qiao Nan’s son. While Qiao Zijin was well alive, there was no reason to leave Chen Feng with Qiao Nan, who was already married.
Despite knowing that she was the elders’ last choice, Qiao Zijin suppressed her anger for the sake of her son.
When Qiao Zijin went to fetch Chen Feng, she still refused to meet Chen Jun.
Seeing Chen Feng’s silence, Qiao Zijin couldn’t help but ask, “Are you sure that you are not infected?”
Everyone knew that AIDS was infectious.
If Chen Feng weren’t her son, Qiao Zijin wouldn’t meet anyone from the Chen family right now.
Chen Feng lived under the same roof with Chen Jun for a while, and Qiao Zijin wasn’t sure if he was infected.
Chen Feng’s expression changed for a moment. Since his father was diagnosed, he had heard worse things than this.
However, he didn’t expect to hear such a question from his mother. “Yes, I have done all the necessary checkups. My dad… had never come back home after there was suspicion around his infection.”
After his parents’ divorce, Chen Feng clearly remembered his grandma complaining that Chen Jun had given up on his family. All Chen Jun did was mess around with other women, and those women were bound to bring him down one day.
Who would have known that that day would come so quickly?
“That’s good.” Qiao Zijin let out a sigh of relief. “Do you remember your auntie?”
“Yes.” Compared to his biological mother, Qiao Nan felt like a real family member to Chen Feng. He knew who brought him up.
“Your aunt is doing well in the capital and her husband is a chief. Do you want to join the army? Should I send you to your aunt?”
Qiao Zijin didn’t want to take care of the child, and it was too much work to go through the college entrance examination with him. However, she knew that Qiao Nan was capable to do that.
Her son wouldn’t benefit from her, but he could surely learn a lot from Qiao Nan and Zhai Sheng.
Who knows? She might become the mother of a chief one day.
Chen Feng was glad that his grandparents told him all about his family matters before leaving him with Qiao Zijin. Otherwise, he might grow up to become someone just like his mother.
The elders used to keep Chen Feng out of the drama, but Chen Feng was already old enough to have his own judgments. He remembered how nice his aunt was to him and how horribly his mother treated her. He also knew about that scary-looking grandma that was awful to Qiao Nan.
After hearing about the history between them, Chen Feng knew that his mother had done nasty things to his aunt.
