Chapter 35: Zhou Wei's condition improves

~8 min read 1,443 words

I looked at the paper my sister held, and it was covered with names.

Who are these people? I don't know, but they all want to enter the Group Company to spend their retirement.

I took my sister's paper in my hand.

Then I asked my sister: "Sis, in the past, when these people entered the company, Xiao Hua would just agree directly."

"That's only natural, Xiao Hua is my younger brother; I let anyone into the company, and he would agree." The sister said proudly.

I then asked: "Sis, you just know these people from square dancing, and they can enter the Group Company— isn't that too cheap for them?"

The sister then immediately said: "Er Hai, don't worry, sis can't cheapen them; you just handle it for old sis. They've all paid money."

I immediately understood: my sister took people's money, then had Xiao Hua get them into the company.

I said, the company keeps so many idle people, and there's a reason for that.

Our Da Heng Company now is like Tang Seng's flesh— relatives and friends all want a piece.

I said to my sister: "Okay, sis, I understand. The list, I'll keep it with me for now, and handle it after I leave the hospital."

The sister said: "That's fine, Er Hai, when you have time, persuade Xixi too— don't let this girl be willful anymore; she must become a Vice President at the Da Heng Group."

I nodded and said nothing more.

The sister saw I wasn't speaking anymore, then got up and left the ward.

After the sister left,

I took out this paper and looked at the names on it.

With a snort, I casually slipped the paper under the pillow.

The next morning, my cigarette craving came up.

I then took out the paper and lit it with a lighter.

Then I took out a cigarette and started smoking it.

At that moment, Li Ming pushed the door open and saw I was burning something.

He hurried over to me.

"Brother, what are you burning?"

I took a puff of smoke, then said: "The list."

"What list?" Li Ming asked.

"My sister gave it to me; it's a list of people who want to enter the Da Heng Group." I said.

"Oh, that's great. I heard Shi Jinhe say that nowadays the construction team finds it hard to recruit, so these people all go work for the construction team. Why are you burning it?" Li Ming said.

"Do they need to go through my sister to work for the construction team, Li Ming? These people are all those who want to enter the Group Company to enjoy blessings."

Shi Yong said our group keeps many idle people, and I still don't believe it.

Today I finally found out: my sister took people's money; as long as you have the list and find Xiao Hua, these people can enter the Group Company.

"This Da Heng Group has been emptied out by our own family. Sigh! Just thinking about it breaks my heart." I sighed to Li Ming.

Li Ming could only sigh and said nothing more.

At that moment, Dean Yang pushed the door open and came in.

With a face full of joy, he said to me and Li Ming: "Jianqiang, Li Bureau tells you a piece of good news."

I hurriedly asked: "What good news?"

"Zhou Wei can breathe on her own now; I see that Zhou Wei's awakening is possible." Dean Yang said happily.

Upon hearing this news,

My hands involuntarily clenched into fists and I vigorously raised them into the air,

Then I shouted: "Great! Thank you, Dean Yang, Zhou Wei will get better."

Dean Yang said: "Jianqiang, Zhou Wei can breathe on her own, indicating her bodily functions are gradually recovering. Since the last time you saw her, Zhou Wei's heart rate has noticeably increased. Mainly, it's thanks to your great effort, Jianqiang; it looks like the feelings between you two as a couple are very deep."

After hearing Dean Yang's words, my tears couldn't help but flow again.

Yes, in middle age, only the feelings between spouses are the deepest. When young, it's the parents' feelings; when old, it's the feelings for one's children.

Believe my sincerity, Zhou Wei can feel it.

As long as Zhou Wei slowly awakens, everything will get better.

My confidence doubled, and I wept with joy.

Li Ming quickly handed me a tissue to wipe my tears.

After wiping my tears, I said to Dean Yang: "Dean Yang, what's the next step in treating Zhou Wei? What medicine is needed? You say it, no matter how much money it costs, I'm willing, as long as she can wake up."

Dean Yang then said: "Jianqiang, this kind of brain injury Zhou Wei has needs to be taken slowly. I still say the same thing: it's not about money, nor about medicine; everything depends on her herself."

Our treatment merely plays a supportive role.

In a couple of days, go again to the ward to chat with Zhou Wei.

We must work together and surely cure Zhou Wei.

At this moment, I tightly gripped Dean Yang's hand with both hands.

"Thank you, Dean Yang; I, Zhao Jianqiang, will fully cooperate with Dean Yang, as long as Zhou Wei can get better."

Dean Yang said: "Alright, Li Bureau, you keep Jianqiang company chatting; I'm going to do rounds."

Dean Yang left, and only Li Ming and I remained in the room.

I happily said to Li Ming: "Li Ming, as long as your sister-in-law wakes up, everything will be easy to handle. How the company is suffering such severe losses, and where our money went—I can understand it all clearly. Dean Yang truly brought a tremendous piece of good news."

Li Ming saw my happy appearance,

Suddenly he poured a basin of cold water and said: "Brother, don't get too happy too early. I feel that the better your sister-in-law recovers, the more some people will worry. Actually, some people don't want your sister-in-law to get better."

"Who? Who doesn't want Zhou Wei to recover?" I hurriedly asked Li Ming.

"I'm just saying there are some people; I don't know who they are, but I always feel that some people don't want my sister-in-law to recover." Li Ming said, taking a puff of cigarette.

I suddenly felt that Li Ming was right,

Not everyone hopes Zhou Wei will recover, because once Zhou Wei recovers, many things will become clear, and much money will know where to go.

I also took a hard drag on a cigarette,

Zhou Wei's condition improving more and more, for some people, can only mean becoming more and more dangerous.

The air conditioner blew out wind, that cool, and a chill rose in my heart.

I covered my legs with the blanket,

Then I asked Li Ming: "Li Ming, what should we do."

Li Ming said: "We can only block the news, have Dean Yang say outwardly that Zhou Wei's condition is serious, with no possibility of recovery, thus dispelling some people's worries. Then your sister-in-law's situation will be safe."

I told Li Ming: "Dean Yang's side I can arrange well, and there's also the nurse; completely blocking the news is not easy."

Li Ming said: "Brother, I can handle this matter; you just need to nod your agreement. From now on, only Dean Yang and you will tell the true news; others will have no idea of your sister-in-law's true condition, and you must also do a good job keeping it secret."

When chatting with others, bringing up the sister-in-law, it's also that kind of attitude that's almost unable to continue.

Doing this can paralyze the enemy. As for who the enemy is, I also don't know. I merely think from professional instinct,

These past days, the events that have happened are very strange.

Therefore, we must be extremely careful in our actions.

After hearing Li Ming's words,

I nodded,

"Brother, go ahead and do it with peace of mind, I believe you. This can also protect your sister-in-law's safety. Yes, many things always make people unable to understand,"

Our sudden car accident, our Group Company's sudden financial explosion,

Everything was so sudden,

Suddenly, it left people unprepared.

Go find Dean Yang to discuss; whatever you decide is fine; you don't need to worry about money.

After Li Ming heard me finish speaking, he nodded and left the ward.

One cannot be without guarding against people; that saying is correct. As for who the enemy is, I also don't know, but I always feel something is off, yet I cannot say what.
