Qiu Xing didn't want to be hospitalized too early. He hadn't made all the arrangements for Jie Yang about Rong Ding's affairs, but under the double suppression of Kirkman and Jie Yang, his opinion could only be one in the end.

Kirkman rarely showed his tough side and said, "You must be hospitalized before December 3rd at the latest. I will start your second course of treatment on December 5th. Surgery should be done sooner rather than later. Once your physical condition reaches the conditions that allow surgery, no matter how many concerns you have, I will not care. You must go to the operating room. Qiu, this is not a joke. The condition of the disease changes rapidly. If you miss the best conditions for surgery, if your condition suddenly worsens again, you may never be able to get the best conditions for surgery again."

Qiu Xing frowned.

"I also hope you can be admitted to the hospital as soon as possible."

Qiu Xing turned his head to look at Jie Yang.

Xie Yang and Qiu Xing looked at each other: "I hope you get better soon in my dreams."

Compared with surgery, the treatment efficiency of supernatural powers is still too low. Illness is always an illness. Even if there are supernatural powers to alleviate it, it will still cause a great burden on Qiu Xing's body. Moreover, the process of waiting for treatment is also a torture for patients. Xie Yang hopes that Qiu Xing’s painful time can end soon.

Qiu Xing's brows were still furrowed. He raised his hand and touched the little flesh on Jie Yang's face that had finally grown back. He glanced at Kirkman, who had a serious expression, and said, "I will arrange for hospitalization as soon as possible."

Kirkman's expression immediately relaxed: "Qiu, you made the right decision."

…

The sudden hospitalization disrupted Qiu Xing's original rhythm. In the following few days, Qiu Xing broke the schedule set by Jie Yang for him and began to spend the whole day in Rongding handling affairs.

Xie Yang let Qiu Xing do his work without stopping him.

Qiu Xing's change soon attracted the attention of the company's top management. People started to ask He Jun indirectly why Qiu Xing suddenly stayed in the company for a long time again. After learning about this, Qiu Xing simply took the initiative to announce that he would be hospitalized soon and that he would let Jie Yang take over the position of acting chairman in advance, and announced that a shareholders' meeting would be held on December 1st.

A single stone can cause a thousand ripples. The top management of Rongding, who had been relatively quiet during this period, immediately became agitated.

On the day of the shareholders' meeting, Xie Yang and Qiu Xing entered the meeting room at the same time. Xie Yang then took the chairman's seat at the front, while Qiu Xing sat down to take action against Xie Yang.

The people who were originally whispering to each other in the room gradually became quiet.

Xie Yang glanced at everyone and said, "I'll preside over today's meeting. Do you have any objections?"

Everyone looked at Qiu Xing who was sitting firmly in the deputy position, and no one dared to have any objection. Qiu Jingwei took a deep breath very obviously and said, "No problem."

The others then spoke up.

Xie Yang and Qiu Xing looked towards Qiu Jingwei at the same time, then looked at each other tacitly, and then looked away tacitly.

The vaccination had already been given, the deputy had been selected, the meeting started smoothly and ended smoothly.

There is no wall that is impenetrable. That afternoon, the media released the news that Qiu Xing would put aside his Rongding affairs and be hospitalized for treatment, and that Jie Yang would temporarily take over the position of Rongding's chairman during Qiu Xing's treatment.

Rongding's stock immediately fell a little.

There was an earthquake in the business world. Weibo, economic magazines, stockholder forums... everywhere was filled with doubts about Xie Yang's acting position as chairman of Rongding. Many business leaders even wrote directly saying that Qiu Xing had gone crazy.

Xie Yang is only 21 years old and is a singer by profession. Can Xie Yang really manage such a large group as Rongding?

Love also has a limit. Everyone can praise Qiu Xing for his affection for deciding to give all his inheritance to his fiancé, but isn’t it too frivolous to push his young fiancé directly to the position of director of the group?

Rongding has tens of thousands of employees, and the industries involved cover almost every aspect of our daily lives. If Xie Yang messes up...

The bad future is almost here.

The words of black fans who said that hatred and lust blind people during the discrimination incident some time ago were brought up again and were agreed by most people. Rongding's originally reliable and stable corporate image has become much dimmer in the eyes of the public.

…

"The stock market has fallen again. It seems that everyone is worried about me."

Qiu Xing was packing things for the hospital, but he didn't try to comfort Jie Yang as usual. Instead, he asked, "What are you going to do now?"

Xie Yang put down his phone and looked at Qiu Xing, and replied: "We must stabilize Rongding's stock first."

Qiu Xing continued to ask: "How to stabilize?"

"The best and most efficient way at the moment is to weaken my position in Rongding and highlight the two deputies you chose for me." Xie Yang found He Jun's phone number and called him. After the call was connected, he instructed, "Prepare a statement to make it clear that Qiu Xing is only in the hospital and has not undergone surgery yet. During his hospitalization, Qiu Xing will assist me in handling Rongding affairs. By the way, announce that Qiu Xing has chosen two deputies for me to reassure the shareholders."

"Okay, little boss."

After the call, Xie Yang looked at Qiu Xing and asked, "Did you pass the test?"

Qiu Xing walked up to Jie Yang and touched his face: "Well done."

"But you don't seem happy."

Qiu Xing rubbed the corners of Jie Yang's eyes and suddenly said, "No need to bring Valentine's Day forward, I'll spend Christmas with you."

A promise in disguise.

Xie Yang smiled, turned his head and kissed Qiu Xing's palm: "Okay."

…

After the statement was issued, Rongding’s stock price immediately stabilized and then began to slowly recover. Public opinion on the Internet also changed quickly. No one said Qiu Xingsex was blinded by lust anymore. Instead, Xie Yang got a new nickname - nominal president.

On December 3rd, Qiu Xing was officially admitted to the hospital. Xie Yang also moved to the hospital and occupied the accompanying bed in the ward.

Feng Qinglin came to the hospital around dinner time that day.

"Feng Chuang wants to take over Rong Ding."

Qiu Xing slowly peeled the apple skin and asked, "How do you move?"

"I don't know the details. Feng Dian asked someone to find out the information. From Feng Dian's tone, Feng Chuang seems to be..." Feng Dian looked at Jie Yang who was waiting to eat an apple.

Xie Yang raised his eyebrows: "They want to start with me?"

Qiu Xing fiercely cut the peeled apple into two with a knife, gave half to Jie Yang, glanced at Feng Qinglin, cut the remaining half into two again, and poked one piece in front of Feng Qinglin with the tip of the knife.

Feng Qinglin: "..." He took the quarter of the apple and thanked him.

The room was filled with the scent of apples. After Feng Qinglin finished eating the apple, he said, "I will keep an eye on Feng Chuang and Feng Hua's movements. If they really want to embarrass me while you are in the hospital, I will help."

Qiu Xing said "hmm" and said solemnly: "Please."

Feng Qinglin was stunned, and Jie Yang stopped eating the apple. They both looked towards Qiu Xing.

Qiu Xing frowned: "What?"

"Nothing." Feng Qinglin hurriedly shook his head and suddenly asked, "Uncle, peel another apple. I want to eat more."

This time it was Qiu Xing who was stunned. He glanced at Feng Qinglin, his expression changed, and he suddenly avoided Feng Qinglin's sight. He lowered his head to take an apple from the basket and scolded him, "You are so old, but you can't get an apple yourself...Give me the knife."

Feng Qinglin listened quietly and handed the knife to Qiu Xing obediently, feeling a little embarrassed. After all, I'm such a grown-up now, and it would be too embarrassing to suddenly act like a spoiled child and ask my uncle for an apple.

The ward became inexplicably quiet, with only the sound of Qiu Xing peeling an apple.

Xie Yang looked at the awkward uncle and nephew, threw the apple core into the trash can, took out a tissue to wipe his hands, and asked Feng Qinglin: "Will you celebrate the New Year with us this year?"

The sound of peeling an apple stopped and continued after two seconds. Qiu Xing didn't look up, as if he didn't care about Feng Qinglin's answer at all.

Feng Qinglin glanced at Qiu Xing and replied, "If you don't bother me..."

Xie Yang patted Qiu Xing: "Do you feel bothered?"

Qiu Xing froze for a moment, peeled off the last bit of the apple skin, stood up and replied, "We are a family, so why bother to interrupt?" He then cut the peeled apple in half again, gave half to Jie Yang and the other half to Feng Qinglin, and stiffly changed the subject, "It's almost time for dinner, eat less fruit, or you won't be able to eat."

Then why did you let Jie Yang eat another half?

Feng Qinglin looked at Qiu Xing who was biased but unaware of it, silently took the apple and started to eat it.

…

On the third day of hospitalization, Qiu Xing underwent the first treatment of the second course of treatment. A few hours later, new test results came out. Kirkman looked at the test results for a long time, and finally said cautiously: "We have to observe it for a while. If the treatment is effective this time, then there may be no need for a second treatment, and the surgery can be performed."

In other words, Qiu Xing will have to undergo surgery at the earliest on any day of this month, or at the latest in January.

Xie Yang turned his head to look at Qiu Xing, and silently sensed the small ball of dark energy remaining in the supernatural core.

This should be enough to sustain you until surgery can begin.

During this period, he would "chew" these energy balls and fall asleep every night after finishing Qiu Xing's treatment. One reason was to find out the details of the system and obtain the information he wanted, and the other was to quickly replenish his superpowers and try to treat Qiu Xing once more every day.

Of these two goals, the former still yielded no results. Apart from watching a lot of scenes of Mu Zhouyi "releasing poison", he had no idea of ​​the origin of the system. The latter has been achieved well.

Maybe Qiu Xing will be able to complete the operation before Christmas.

Qiu Xing suddenly turned his head and looked at Jie Yang.

Xie Yang was stunned for a moment, then smiled at Qiu Xing: "I think I can get a great Christmas gift this year."

Qiu Xing held Jie Yang's hand and squeezed it gently.

…

In the following week, the team of experts that Kirkman had assembled for the revenge surgery arrived one after another. Xie Yang finally couldn't delay any longer and officially began his life as Rongding's acting chairman.

On his first day at work without Qiu Xing by his side, Xie Yang encountered a small, tentative challenge.

He Jun placed an invitation in front of Jie Yang and said, "Usually, this kind of social business meeting would be hosted by Vice President Qiu and several other Vice Presidents, but this time they were either too busy or suddenly fell ill, so this fell on your shoulders."

Xie Yang picked up the invitation letter, flipped through it, and asked, "Can I turn it down?"

"I don't recommend you do this. Although this conference is social in nature, it is a conference after all. The organizer of the conference is the Beijing Business Association. Sometimes they will announce some new policy trends at the conference. If you can attend, it is better to attend."

"Can't my two deputies go?"

"One of them was on a business trip, and the other just happened to be stuck with a project by Vice President Qiu."

Xie Yang put down the invitation and leaned back in his chair: "Great, it looks like I'm the only one who can go."

He Jun nodded helplessly, and then said: "There is one more thing I have to remind you, little boss. Usually this type of meeting will end with a drink. There are several leaders in the North Business Association who like to persuade people to drink. Little boss, how is your alcohol tolerance?"
