Chapter 842 Severe Stomach Disease
"Yes, I came down specially to get some water. When you play games, pay attention to your time and eyes and don't stay up late to play, okay?"
"We got it. We'll stop playing this game and go back to our rooms to sleep. Brother Chuan, you and Uncle Cheng should remember to go to bed early, and then get up and have breakfast tomorrow. Brother Chuan, please help me tell Uncle Cheng and Brother Qi about this."
"I know. Needless to say, they will get up and eat breakfast. Have you ever seen us not get up and eat breakfast? Brother Qi and I have to go to work. How could my uncle, who has such a regular schedule and takes good care of his health, not eat breakfast?"
"That's true. I was playing games and my mind didn't react for a while."
"Okay, you two can just play slowly. I won't talk to you and disturb you from playing games."
"Okay, okay, Brother Chuan, take care."
Twenty minutes later, the game finally ended. Manman and Wu You kept their word and did not continue playing but went back to their rooms to sleep.
In the gym upstairs, Cheng Yunchuan shared the water he got from the refrigerator with Cheng Xiangdi and Shen Siqi, and then they chatted inside and calmed their heartbeats after the exercise.
After chatting for a while and waiting for the sweat to stop, the three of them went back to their rooms to wash up.
At the Jiang family, Jiang Mubai coaxed Xiang Xiang to sleep and asked Zhou Xiaoying to help take care of the child upstairs. When she finished washing up, Jiang An had not yet returned from a social event outside. Jiang Mubai knew that he was working outside and there was no danger, but she was still worried.
Jiang Mubai was afraid that she would disturb Xiang Xiang and Zhou Xiaoying's rest in the room, so after thinking it over again and again, she decided to go to the lobby downstairs to wait for Jiang An to come back.
It was already very late, and the servants in the villa had all gone back to their rooms to rest, so the entire villa was silent. If the lights in the hall had not been on, Jiang Mubai might not have had the courage to come down alone.
Because the environment was so quiet and the villa was so spacious, Jiang Mubai immediately thought of the terrifying atmosphere over at the artificial lake. She quickly shook her head to stop herself from thinking about it any further, otherwise she would not dare to stay in the living room alone later.
The housekeeper had not returned to his room to rest yet. He was the second person in the villa besides Jiang Mubai who was active at home. When he heard the noise coming from the stairs, he immediately came out to check the situation. He was surprised to find Jiang Mubai standing there, not wanting to get down.
"Mu Bai? Aren't you asleep yet so late?"
"Well, I'll come down and sit for a while. Uncle Chen, you haven't slept either?"
"Yeah, isn't Mr. Jiang not back yet? If I go to sleep, who will open the door for them later?"
"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Chen. Every time Dad goes out for a social event, do you wait for him to come back home?"
"Yes."
"Wouldn't it be very late to go back to your room and rest? And if dad doesn't come back too late, wouldn't it be a waste of time if you keep waiting like this?"
"How can I wait in vain? If Mr. Jiang doesn't come back at night, he will call me in advance to inform me. In this way, I don't have to prepare breakfast for him at the villa the next day."
"That's hard to wait, because we don't know when he will be able to finish his socializing and come home."
"It's not difficult to wait. Mr. Jiang's social events usually don't go past midnight. If it's past midnight, he won't come back. If you think it's troublesome, just rest in my hotel outside."
"Okay, then I'll stay with you tonight. Anyway, I slept a lot during the day and I'm not very sleepy now."
Jiang Mubai had to wait for Jiang An to come back from the social event, so the housekeeper naturally wouldn't say anything more.
"Mubai, what were you doing standing at the stairs just now? I saw you were standing there motionless."
"I was wondering whether I should come down. It feels scary to stay alone in such a big and empty villa. If you hadn't shown up in time before going to bed, Uncle Chen, I might have gone back to my room."
"That's true. You and Mr. Jiang are the only ones at home. You are still young now, but it will be very lively when you grow up."
"I thought so too. By the way, Uncle Chen, when did you start working with my dad at the Jiang family?"
"It's been a long time, almost ten years. You were born at that time but I never saw you."
“I know this because I was trafficked at that time.”
"Yes, before you were found, Mr. Jiang would talk to me about you and your mother every time he got drunk at social events. Fortunately, after all these years, he finally found you."
"Well, I also think this is a very magical thing. Isn't my father a good drinker? Why did he get drunk so often before?"
"No one is born with a good alcohol tolerance. If there is, it is only a very small number of people. Alcohol tolerance is acquired slowly. Mr. Jiang's alcohol tolerance is so good now, but he often got drunk because of the incident between you and your mother."
Jiang Mubai heard about this from Jiang Ping. When the Jiang family got the news about her, Jiang An was very happy. But Jiang Jinglan intervened and caused her to fake her death in a car accident. Jiang An couldn't accept this and got herself drunk every day. It was because of this that she was unable to deal with the things left behind by Jiang Mubai, and she didn't realize that the fake death in the car accident was the work of Jiang Ping and Jiang Jinglan.
"No wonder, I was wondering why my dad didn't get drunk at all after drinking so much yesterday."
"The alcohol content of the red wine is not strong enough to make Mr. Jiang drunk. Don't worry about that, Mu Bai."
"Dad, is there nothing wrong with his health after drinking so much? I see he's the same as usual when he's in front of me."
"Yes, after all, we are all human, right? So the stomach has been unable to bear drinking for a long time. Mr. Jiang has had serious stomach problems for many years. At the worst time, he even had gastric bleeding and went to the hospital for emergency treatment. It was at that time that he realized that this would not work, so he listened to the doctor's advice and started to adjust his diet."
"Has Dad not had any stomach problems in all these years?"
"Yes, as long as you don't drink too much and eat on time, there won't be a big problem. Now that you are back, Mr. Jiang will cherish his body and health more. He also wants to spend more time with you in this world."
"But he drank so much yesterday and he has to attend a dinner party tonight. Even though it's a dinner party, it's hard for business people not to drink at all. Even so, will Dad's health be okay? Won't his stomach problem come back?"
"It's okay, Mu Bai, don't worry. Mr. Jiang hasn't had any problems in all these years, which means he takes good care of himself. Mr. Jiang has been in the business world for so many years, and no one can persuade him to drink if he doesn't want to. You can rest assured about this."
Jiang Mubai knew that the housekeeper was comforting him. Even though she knew that with Jiang An's current social status, no one dared to force him to drink, Jiang Mubai was still very worried about him, especially when he knew that Jiang An had a serious stomach problem.
After seeing that Jiang Mubai was very worried, the butler took out his cell phone and made a call. It was Jiang An's driver whom he had contacted in the afternoon.
"Look, I told you everything is fine. I just contacted Mr. Jiang's driver. He is with Mr. Jiang at the dinner and is taking care of him. Don't worry, Mr. Jiang is not drunk."
"That's fine. When will my dad come back?"
"I asked for you, and the driver said that the dinner will be over in about half an hour. It will take at least an hour to come back by then. Fortunately, it's not past twelve o'clock."
