Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

About an hour and a half later, the doctor came out.

Wang Erhai and Zhang Sheng, along with Lin Xiaofang holding the child, walked up together to ask.

"Doctor, how is he?"

The doctor said:

"The patient has already woken up and is temporarily out of life-threatening danger, but some indicators aren't too good. I suggest going to a big hospital in Guangzhou for a full-body examination."

Lin Xiaofang was stunned:

"Some indicators aren't good — what exactly does that mean?"

The doctor could only say tactfully:

"The county town's medical conditions are limited; I can't say specifically how it is. Anyway, for safety's sake, it's still better to go to a big hospital for a check-up."

Lin Xiaofang's whole person went blank.

Right now her youngest son is only a few years old, her eldest daughter is a rebellious, insensible good-for-nothing, and she herself has been a housewife for so many years, long since detached from society, with no ability to earn money.

That is to say, her husband Niu Chunsheng is the family's sole pillar; if something happens to Niu Chunsheng, what will they do in the future?

She fundamentally doesn't know what to do!

So she panicked all at once.

Zhang Sheng hurriedly comforted Lin Xiaofang:

"Don't panic. Doctors nowadays are good at scaring people. Later, when your husband's body recovers a bit, take him to Guangzhou for a check-up. I think he's just overworked, his body is weak, there's no other cause!"

Lin Xiaofang lowered her head and wiped tears, not replying.

Wang Erhai then said:

"Aunt Xiaofang, let's go in and see Uncle Chunsheng!"

Niu Zhigao, in Lin Xiaofang's arms, at this moment pursed his lips:

"Mom, why are you crying? Mom don't cry, if you cry I also feel a bit like crying..."

Lin Xiaofang hurriedly comforted Niu Zhigao:

"Son, I'm not crying, you don't cry either, everyone be brave."

The three entered the ward together and saw the already-awake Niu Chunsheng.

Niu Chunsheng's body was very weak, lips pale, eyes fatigued.

Seeing Wang Erhai and Zhang Sheng, his opening words weren't reproach, but apology:

"Erhai, President Zhang, truly sorry for the trouble I've caused you."

This is Niu Chunsheng's character.

The reason he's been able to stand firm in the business world for so many years relies not only on business tactics, but also on this character of his that puts others before himself.

"The one who should say sorry is me. Had I known you couldn't drink, we would've just switched to drinking tea!"

Zhang Sheng's face was full of apology, and he also said:

"If something happens to you, I'll feel guilty for the rest of my life!"

Wang Erhai then said:

"Uncle Chunsheng, you rest well. The development of the Shangang Town Real Estate Project, leave it to me and President Zhang to handle. We'll give you real-time progress feedback."

Niu Chunsheng nodded:

"Erhai, you're thoughtful."

Lin Xiaofang at this time said:

"Husband, the doctor just said, suggesting you go to a big hospital for a full physical exam. How about in a few days when your body's better, we make a trip to Guangzhou."

Niu Chunsheng, however, was somewhat unwilling:

"Better not. There's still a lot of work to do."

Wang Erhai hurriedly persuaded:

"Uncle Chunsheng, the body is the capital of revolution. I think you should listen to Aunt Xiaofang and go for a physical. It won't take much time. Book it on the phone, go in the morning for the check-up, and you might be back by noon."

Niu Chunsheng thought a moment; indeed, that was the principle.

Only, in his heart there was some struggle.

If by some chance the check-up really reveals something wrong...

Then a lot of his work will probably have to be shelved.

But if he doesn't get checked, he's afraid a minor illness will drag into a major one, a major one into a terminal illness.

Zhang Sheng said:

"President Niu, just go with peace of mind. President Wang just said, the Shangang Town Real Estate Project matters, leave them to me and President Wang. Rest assured, guaranteed to do it beautifully. We've been old friends for so many years — could it be you still don't trust us?"

Niu Chunsheng politely smiled and said:

"Thank you for President Zhang's concern. Then later I'll find time to go to Guangzhou for a check-up."

The next day at noon, Niu Chunsheng was discharged.

After discharge he didn't go to the company, but stayed home to recuperate.

But rather than say it's recuperation, it's more like he's doing ideological struggle.

He sat on the sofa, gaze dull, letting the happy children's program play on the big TV screen before him, yet he didn't move a muscle.

Lin Xiaofang was cooking in the kitchen, while their son Niu Zhigao sat on the floor watching TV.

Niu Chunsheng thought a lot.

If his body really had an illness, how should it be treated?

If by some chance it couldn't be cured, how should the funeral arrangements be made?

What about his daughter and son, how should they be handled?

How should the property be distributed?

Who should take over the company?

The more he thought, the greater his pressure became.

In the end, all kinds of worries turned into reasons why he could not collapse.

At this moment Lin Xiaofang brought in the dishes:

"Don't think too much, I've already scheduled your physical examination for tomorrow, I believe you'll definitely be fine."

Lin Xiaofang was actually very worried inside too, but she still comforted Niu Chunsheng with her words.

Niu Chunsheng gave an "mm" sound, then said:

"Don't let Lin Xin know about this matter for now."

Lin Xiaofang was stunned:

"What's wrong with letting her know? She's your daughter, she has the right to know."

But Niu Chunsheng said:

"Isn't she taking the college entrance exam next year? She's currently studying at a fully closed cram school in the city. Letting her know won't help anything, it'll only distract her and make her unable to focus on the exam."

Niu Linxin was originally taking the college entrance exam this year, but because she rebelled and took a leave of absence for a period of time, when she transferred to the cram school she was held back a grade, so she has to wait until next year to take the exam.

Lin Xiaofang had already completely given up on Niu Linxin, so at this point she said:

"Looking at her attitude, she'll never get good scores anyway. After the college entrance exam, just let her go to some private university and be done with it. Let's not waste effort on her anymore, it's better to properly cultivate our son!"

But Niu Chunsheng said:

"No matter what, she's still our daughter. As long as there's still a chance, we shouldn't give up."

But Lin Xiaofang said:

"I didn't say give up on her — she gave up on herself. From childhood to now, haven't we spoiled and loved her enough?"

Lin Xiaofang sighed at this:

"Have you heard? That Wang Xiaoqian who used to be very close with our daughter — she took the college entrance exam this year and scored over six hundred. Although she's not as amazing as Wang Xiaohua, she got admitted to Sun Yat-sen University!"

Niu Chunsheng fell silent, feeling uncomfortable inside.

Lin Xiaofang sighed again:

"Back then she and our daughter were both at a mediocre level. Then during summer vacation they both received Wang Xiaohua's tutoring. How come after Wang Xiaoqian was tutored by Wang Xiaohua she was completely transformed, while our daughter is still the same hopeless case?"

Niu Chunsheng then said:

"Don't go comparing with other people's children. Comparing back and forth, besides making yourself upset, what good does it do?"

Lin Xiaofang then said:

"Alright alright, I'll stop. Let's eat. I'll go get Zhigao's high chair..."
