“Bring the car!” Jiang Yanshen was the first to calm down. He said calmly, “Inform the hospital to prepare for emergency treatment.”
He carried the old lady and walked out.
Jiang Yunshen reacted and hurriedly made the arrangements. As he followed behind him, he called Lu Yuan and the hospital.
Jiang Yanshen’s footsteps were as fast as a meteor as he was worried about the old lady. After taking a few steps, he thought of something and turned around to look in Lin Qingqian’s direction…
Lin Qingqian was blocked by the guests and could not get through. Her bright eyes looked at him as if she was saying something.
The event location was in chaos. Their gazes met at a certain point. After a few seconds, Jiang Yanshen retracted his gaze and walked out of the banquet hall.
The surrounding guests finally dispersed a little. Lin Qingqian wanted to chase after them, but before she turned around, she looked at Qi Min. “Master…”
Qi Min knew what she wanted to say and waved her hand. “Go quickly. Suisui will accompany me back later.”
At this moment, Suisui and Lu Qinshang also squeezed over. “Qianqian, don’t worry. We’ll definitely send Master back safely.”
Lu Qinshang’s expression was serious. “Go, don’t worry. I’ll send them back.”
With Lu Qinshang’s words, Lin Qingqian was relieved. She lifted her skirt and squeezed out anxiously. “Please make way, make way…”
Everyone looked confused. Some guessed that someone had poisoned her, and some guessed that the old lady was dying.
On the other hand, Lu Dongcheng and Luo Tianxue, who were standing in a corner, had calm expressions.
After all, it was not their Lu family’s business.
Lu Dongcheng held the red wine glass and gently rotated his wrist. He watched as the red wine hit the wall of the glass and slid down. His lips curled into a playful smile. “I’m afraid the Jiang family won’t be at peace this time.”
Luo Tianxue turned to look at him. “Why do I hear a hint of gloating?
Lu Dongcheng glanced at her from the corner of his eye and his thin lips curled up slightly. “Who doesn’t want a piece of Tianyue Group?”
He was probably not the only person at the event location who had such thoughts.
Luo Tianxue was not as scheming as him, but she wasn’t stupid. If Lu Dongcheng wasn’t ruthless back then, the Lu family wouldn’t be led by him now.
And she would long have been sent to some man’s bed to exchange for benefits.
Except—
She looked at the commotion at the door with a trace of worry in her eyes. “Qianqian shouldn’t have gotten back together with Jiang Yanshen at this time.”
Being sucked into the vortex of the Jiang Family was not a good thing.
The corners of Lu Dongcheng’s mouth curled up as he finished the wine in his glass. His large palm landed on her shoulder and he said in a cold voice,
“Everyone has their own fate. She made her own choice…”
As soon as Old Madam Jiang was sent to the hospital, she was pushed into the emergency room.
Not long after, the entrance of the emergency room was in chaos. Other than Jiang Chongjing and Wu Suyun, there were also many other branches of the Jiang Family.
When Lin Qingqian arrived, more than ten people had blocked the entrance of the emergency room. She could only see Jiang Yanshen standing at the door through the crowd.
His cold features were covered in sweat, his hawk-like eyes were filled with worry, and his jawline was extremely tense.
The side branches of the Jiang Family were talking at once, and it was so noisy that no one could hear who was speaking.
The nurse came to remind them several times that this was a hospital and they could not make a fuss. Unfortunately, it was useless.
Jiang Yanshen seemed to have sensed something. He turned his head and saw a green figure not far away. Her bright eyes were filled with worry as she looked at him. It was like a net that wrapped tightly around his heart, tightening.
“Shut up! ” His thin lips pursed slightly, and his cold voice immediately silenced the event location.
“All of you, go back. You’re not needed here.” The cold voice sounded again.
“Yanshen, you can’t say that. We’re just concerned about Old Madam, ” a distant aunt of the Jiang Family said.
The others echoed her sentiments.
Jiang Yanshen looked at her sharply, his gaze as sharp as a knife.
The aunt’s heart turned cold, but when she thought about how there were so many people, she stopped worrying.
The atmosphere became oppressive and tense, as if the oxygen in the air had thinned.
“Alright, you can’t help the old lady by standing here.” Jiang Chongjing stood up and spoke, breaking the stiff atmosphere. “How about this? Suyun, bring them to a hotel near the hospital or a cafe to wait for news. If there’s any news,
I’ll immediately inform everyone.”
Seeing him say this, everyone dispersed and walked out.
Lin Qingqian retreated to the side, her eyes looking in Jiang Yanshen’s direction.
With everyone gone, the corridor fell silent.
Jiang Yanshen walked in front of her and looked down to see that the green high heels on her feet had been stepped on and were covered with dust.
He took out a gray handkerchief from his pocket and squatted down to wipe the dust off her shoes bit by bit.
Lin Qingqian wanted to evade, but his warm fingertips pinched her ankle. She could not move and let him wipe the dust off her shoes.
Jiang Yunshen was worried about the old lady and did not look at them at all. Instead, Jiang Chongjing stared at Lin Qingqian with a dark gaze.
Lin Qingqian sensed his gaze and looked up at him and then lowered her eyes, not taking him seriously at all.
Jiang Yanshen stood up and threw the handkerchief into the trash can. Then, he held her cold hand and comforted her. “Grandma will be fine.” Lin Qingqian nodded.
An hour later, the door of the resuscitation room opened.
Jiang Chongjing couldn’t wait to go forward and ask, “Doctor, how’s my mother?”
The doctor glanced at him, took off his mask, and said to Jiang Yanshen, “Old Madam is fine. The nurse will send her back to the ward later.”
Jiang Yanshen nodded, and Lin Qingqian thanked the doctor.
The doctor: “You’re welcome. The family needs to come to the office with me. I want to tell you about the old lady’s condition in detail.”
Jiang Yanshen looked down at Lin Qingqian and she said softly, “Go ahead. I’ll wait for Grandma here.”
Jiang Yanshen nodded and left with the doctor. A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Jiang Chongjing’s eyes before he quickly followed.
20 minutes later, Jiang Yanshen and Jiang Chongjing returned to the ward.
Lin Qingqian stood up and looked at Jiang Yanshen without saying anything.
Jiang Chongjing said, “Thank you for taking care of my mother, Miss Lin. My wife will take care of her later, so we won’t trouble you anymore.”
Lin Qingqian still did not speak, her bright eyes looking at Jiang Yanshen quietly.
Jiang Yanshen’s throat moved slightly, and his voice was low. “I’ll get Lu Yuan to send you back first.”
Lin Qingqian wanted to wait for the old lady to wake up, but when she heard him say this, she still nodded.
Jiang Yanshen sent her to the door of the ward.
Lin Qingqian stopped him. “There’s no need to send me off. Lu Yuan is waiting for me downstairs.”
Something quickly flashed across Jiang Yanshen’s eyes. As if he understood what she meant, he reached out and touched her cheek. “Call me when you get home.”
Lin Qingqian agreed and pursed her lips before turning to walk towards the elevator.
Jiang Yanshen stood at the door of the ward and looked at her. If not for Jiang Chongjing being here, he would not have let her go.
Before Lin Qingqian reached the elevator, she saw Wu Suyun walking over with a group of people from the Jiang Family.
Perhaps because their minds were focused on the old lady, not many people noticed her.
Seeing them walk past her, Lin Qingqian couldn’t help but stop and turn around. She couldn’t help but think—
How many of these people were really concerned about Grandma’s safety? The air was filled with the faint smell of disinfectant. There was no wind in the corridor, but she inexplicably shivered and felt a chill spread throughout her body.
Without any hesitation, she turned around and left the hospital.
Lu Yuan and Brother Chen sent her back to the apartment together. Lu Yuan still had other things to deal with and left in a hurry. Brother Chen stood at the door of the apartment like a guardian god.
Lin Qingqian did not call Jiang Yanshen. Instead, she sent a WeChat message to reassure him.
Probably because he was busy, Jiang Yanshen did not reply.
She went on Weibo again and didn’t see any news about the Jiang Family. Jiang Yanshen must have sealed the news.
This was good too. Otherwise, just the news of the old lady’s illness would cause countless rumors.
However, she didn’t know if this matter was an accident or… man-made?
At the hospital, the other members of the Jiang Family branch wanted to visit the old lady, but they were blocked outside the ward by Jiang Yanshen.
Only Jiang Yanshen and Jiang Chongjing’s family were sitting in the ward.
Jiang Chongjing deliberated for a moment and said, “Yanshen, your uncles are all worried about Old Madam. Let them come in to see her.”
Jiang Yanshen, who was sitting by the bed, glanced at him casually.
Jiang Chongjing continued, “Everyone’s surname is Jiang. We’re a family. It’s not good to make things too ugly. What if they go out and spout nonsense…”
Jiang Yunshen felt that his words were very reasonable and looked at Jiang Yanshen. “Brother, my father is right. Let them take a look and let them leave after that.”
Wu Suyun stood at the side and did not say a word. In the Jiang family, she would always have no presence.
Jiang Yanshen’s long eyelashes drooped. After a moment of silence, he said, “They can sit on the sofa and watch if they want to.”
Jiang Chongjing still wanted to say something, but he swallowed his words. “Alright.”
He turned around to open the door and explained the situation to everyone.
The Jiang Family branch was naturally dissatisfied with Jiang Yanshen treating them like this. However, the power was in Jiang Yanshen’s hands, so they could only come in and stand by the sofa to look at the old lady on the bed. After saying a few indifferent words of blessing, they returned.
The ward finally quietened down.
Jiang Chongjing gave Wu Suyun a look. When she received it, she pursed her lips and said, “Yanshen, I’ll take care of Mom here. Go back and rest.”
Jiang Yanshen replied without looking up, “No need.”
Before the old lady woke up, he would not go anywhere.
Seeing his determined attitude, Wu Suyun looked at her husband helplessly.
Jiang Chongjing wanted to speak, but before he could speak, he heard Jiang Yanshen’s cold voice.
“Second Uncle, Second Aunt, you can go back and rest. Yunshen and I will be here.”
Jiang Yunshen was called out and hurriedly said, “That’s right. Mom, Dad, go back and rest. We’ll take care of Grandma here.”
Jiang Chongjing cursed his heartless idiot son in his heart, but his face was still calm. “Alright, thank you for your trouble.”
With that, he glared at Wu Suyun and turned to leave.
Wu Suyun lowered her head and followed behind him silently.
Jiang Yunshen’s attention was on the bed and he did not notice it, but Jiang Yanshen calmly took it in and smiled mockingly.
“Take care of Grandma. I’ll go out for a while.”
Yunshen nodded.
Jiang Yanshen walked out of the ward and called Gu Xici…
