Chapter 201 Trouble Comes One After Another
Chapter 201 Trouble Comes One After Another
I gave a pale smile. "What kind of life is a life that's about to end?"
"At the last moment, if you can help the people around you, isn't that great? Okay, Sister Mei, take care."
"But……"
Hu Mei wanted to say something more, but I turned around and waved my hand, "Sister Mei, I'm leaving now. You can come down later."
When I came out, I saw Song Yafei's car. Although I couldn't see inside, I knew she was waiting for me there.
Without hesitation, I opened the passenger door.
Song Yafei wasn't surprised to see me; it seemed she had anticipated my choice, after all, we used to be the people who knew each other best.
Not long after I got in the car, I closed my eyes. Song Yafei didn't ask any questions and just drove slowly.
I don't know when I woke up, or how long I slept.
When I woke up again, I was back in the master bedroom of Song Yafei's villa.
I slept very well and felt refreshed when I woke up.
When I got out of bed, I saw Song Yafei sitting next to me, wearing pajamas, with some documents and a laptop in front of her.
Upon seeing that I had woken up, they quickly put down their work and walked towards me.
"You're awake. Are you hungry?"
Listening to her caring words, I was momentarily dazed, as if I had returned to the past, when she was just as gentle.
But I was indeed hungry, so I nodded.
"Wait here, I'll ask Aunt Lin to heat up the porridge and bring it up to you."
After saying that, she got up and left.
Just a few minutes later, she returned, followed closely by Aunt Lin, who was carrying some food.
Aunt Lin laid out all the food on the coffee table, her eyes filled with heartache as she looked at me.
"Sir, please eat quickly. This is your favorite chicken porridge, it's good for your stomach. You've slept all day, you must be very hungry, eat slowly."
I had slept for so long, no wonder I felt so energetic.
"Aunt Lin, you can go now. Let him eat properly."
"Okay, I'll go downstairs right now to make some nourishing soup for you, sir."
"Okay, you go."
I lowered my head and stuffed food into my mouth. After I finished eating, I had to go to the hospital.
I was moving a little too fast and accidentally choked, which made me cough violently, almost coughing up my lungs.
Just then, a glass of water was brought to her lips; it was Song Yafei who handed it to her.
Without being polite, I took it and drank two big gulps, and then I wanted to continue eating.
But Song Yafei stopped me, "You've been hungry for so long, eat a little first, so your stomach won't feel uncomfortable later. I brought your medicine too, which one do you want to take?"
Sure enough, she was holding my usual medication in her other hand.
I didn't expect Song Yafei to be so thoughtful.
But I couldn't worry about that right now, so I just grabbed two painkillers and swallowed them.
After I finished all that, I got up to change my clothes. When I came out, Song Yafei had already changed and was holding the car keys.
What is she doing?
"Let's go, we're not going to the hospital."
Song Yafei guessed what I was thinking without asking anything; this is probably the tacit understanding we've developed over the years.
I just didn't expect that this tacit understanding would occur at this time.
Song Yafei walked in front, and I followed closely behind.
She personally took me to the hospital, but then a phone call summoned her away.
When I came up to the ward, I saw the caregiver from last time. He saw me and called out, "Mr. Zhang."
It seems that Assistant Luo had already introduced me to him.
I nodded and went to the bedside to check on Lin Qiuran's condition.
The caregiver introduced himself as Mr. Xu and briefly explained Lin Qiuran's condition to me.
"Mr. Lin's condition is relatively stable. Doctors and nurses have come to see him, but he has not yet shown any signs of waking up. Everything else is fine."
After the introduction, the caregiver, Xu, tactfully left the ward, leaving the space to Lin Qiuran and me.
I opened my phone, and there were several videos that we filmed together with Wu Qian.
I was so worried the other day that I forgot about it, but now I've had a good night's sleep and my mind is much clearer.
So they played all the videos featuring Wu Qian one by one. The doctor also said that the family members needed to cooperate in stimulating her.
There might be some unexpected surprises.
Just as I was playing the third audio clip, Hu Mei suddenly pushed open the door to the ward, her face full of anxiety.
Perhaps she was in too much of a hurry, because her clothes looked a little disheveled.
I noticed something was wrong with her. "What's wrong? What happened?"
Hu Mei didn't answer me. She took out her phone, scrolled through it for a bit, and then handed it to me.
I'm not interested; nothing can capture my attention right now.
But I was stunned when I saw the photos in the gossip news.
In the picture, a man has been stripped naked, exposing his chest and thighs, with only his private parts barely covered.
Even though his face was blurred, it was still easy to recognize that this person was Lin Qiuran.
The caption accompanying this picture is also extremely infuriating.
In their eyes, Lin Qiuran became someone who relied on selling her male charm to solicit business and negotiate cooperation.
I actually knew about this incident. When the accident happened, Lin Qiuran woke up in the hospital, and I was the one who picked him up from the hospital.
This matter happened a long time ago, and the fact that it's being brought up now makes me suspect it's the Dong family's doing again.
This is not the case at all, as they understand it.
Lin Qiuran was so drunk that he was unconscious; those people had humiliated him.
However, based on these reports, Lin Qiuran appears to be someone who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals.
This is not fair!
I looked at Lin Qiuran lying on the bed, barely alive, with a burning resentment, and gripped my phone so tightly it made a cracking sound.
This matter may be far more serious than Song Yafei and I thought; they don't just want Lin Qiuran to leave.
They want to ruin his reputation, and maybe they'll even want him dead.
I was startled by my own thought.
But we have to prepare for the worst.
In any case, I need to suppress this scandal first.
Lin Qiuran has clearly done nothing wrong in this matter, and I cannot let her wake up to be burdened with such a terrible accusation.
Then I thought of Miss Dong. This matter concerns the Dong family, so it's only natural that she should handle it.
So I stopped the audio playback and called Ms. Dong.
But I called her three times, and no one answered.
It's estimated that the Dong family has him under control.
If that's the case, then it can only mean that the Dong family is serious this time.
For a moment, I felt a chill run down my spine!
I cannot fight the Dong family on my own, let alone the Xu family behind them.
Even if I were to protect Lin Qiuran with all my strength, we would be utterly helpless!
