Shang Jingchi frowned, "Explain clearly!"
Lu Jingchuan's voice in the carriage was deafening. In addition, Wen Ran also heard the crying of a child. Wen Ran guessed that it should be Shang Beixue's son Changchang.
Lu Jingchuan's voice was choked with sobs, and he said weakly, "Brother, Xiaoxue...she's dying."
"squeak--!!"
Shang Jingchi slammed on the brakes, and Wen Ran was caught off guard, his upper body suddenly falling forward. Fortunately, he was wearing a seat belt and was pulled back to his original position.
Shang Jingchi turned his head to look at Wen Ran, and after making sure she was okay, he said in a deep voice, "Tell me where you are."
Shang Jingchi didn't ask anything else. After getting Lu Jingchuan's reply, he turned around at the intersection ahead and drove to the First People's Hospital of the city.
Halfway through the journey, he said to Wen Ran, "We'll talk about returning to the old house later. You accompany me to the hospital first.
I didn’t mean to brake, sorry!”
Wen Ran was stunned. She didn't expect Shang Jingchi to apologize to her.
She calmed herself down and said, "It's okay."
There were not many vehicles on the road at this time of day. Shang Jingchi drove very fast and the scenery outside the window flashed by.
They were still some distance away from the First People's Hospital of the city. Even at the current speed, it would take at least ten minutes to drive there.
The atmosphere in the car was somewhat depressing. Wen Ran casually asked, "Who is the Xiaoxue that Mr. Lu mentioned?"
"He's my sister."
"Oh!" Wen Ran said calmly. She had heard about the relationship between Shang Jingchi and Shang Beixue a long time ago.
It's just that she has never had in-depth contact with Shang Beixue, and doesn't understand what kind of person she is.
What made Wen Ran curious was that she had never heard anyone else in the Shang family mention Shang Beixue.
Just as I was wondering, Shang Jingchi's voice sounded beside me.
"When my sister was in college, she fell in love with a guy who was an uneducated and uneducated thug. I don't know what tricks he used, but he made my sister go on a hunger strike and force her to marry him.
Not long after they got married, the man's true colors were exposed. He joined forces with other companies to deal with the Shang Group and eventually fled abroad with the money.
My mother was so angry that she kicked my sister out of the house.
My father became seriously ill because of this, and that was when I started to take over the management of the company.”
Shang Jingchi's voice reached Wen Ran's ears slowly and steadily. Her eyes widened as if she had heard shocking news.
This was the first time she heard Shang Jingchi say this to her. Jiang Yiyi told her that Shang Group could achieve its current success because of Shang Jingchi who single-handedly fought his way through the business world.
When she first met Shang Jingchi, he was only 28 years old. At that time, he was already a major figure in the Beijing business world, and now he has expanded his business to the world.
Curiosity got the better of him, so Wen Ran asked directly, "How old were you when you took over the company?"
"Twenty."
"You took over the company at the age of twenty?!" Wen Ran couldn't believe it, even raising his voice. But then he thought about it and relaxed his tone, "Then these years must have been difficult for you, right?"
Shang Jingchi turned his head to look at Wen Ran, and raised the corners of his lips, "Can I understand that you are concerned about me?"
Wen Ran immediately said, "I'm just saying it casually, don't think too much."
“…”
Shang Jingchi pursed his thin lips into a line. He had no way to vent the frustration in his heart, so he gripped the steering wheel even tighter.
A few minutes later, the two arrived at the hospital, and Shang Jingchi quickly walked to the place Lu Jingchuan mentioned - the door of the operating room.
Wen Ran knew the situation was urgent, so he jogged all the way there.
After getting out of the elevator, Wen Ran noticed from afar Lu Jingchuan and Chang Chang sitting at the door of the operating room.
Lu Jingchuan also heard the footsteps approaching. He raised his head, saw who was coming, and stood up from his chair in an instant, "Brother, you are finally here."
"What's going on?" Shang Jingchi's face was gloomy.
"Xiaoxue..." Lu Jingchuan just said that when Chang Chang suddenly ran over and hugged Shang Jingchi, crying, "Uncle, my mother is sick, the doctor said it's very serious."
At this moment, Changchang's little face was already covered with tear marks, and her eyes were red.
Lu Jingchuan sighed, "Xiaoxue found out she had breast cancer three years ago, but she didn't tell anyone and didn't get any treatment.
Until recently, I noticed that she had no appetite, vomited frequently, and even had difficulty breathing from time to time."
Lu Jingchuan's voice was already hoarse halfway through his speech. He slowed down and finally mustered the strength to continue.
"Only after my insistence did Xiaoxue confess her illness to me. Today she suddenly fainted at home. I took her to the hospital for a checkup. The doctor said her breast cancer was in the late stage and had spread to her lungs.
That’s why you have difficulty breathing, and this may just be the beginning.”
After hearing this, Shang Jingchi was shocked, angry and annoyed. He could no longer bear it and grabbed Lu Jingchuan by the collar, his eyes almost spitting fire.
"You fucking Lu Jingchuan, you're telling me this now! Where were you before?"
Lu Jingchuan didn't resist. "Xiaoxue told me not to tell you. She didn't want you to worry."
"Is there something wrong with your fucking brain? You didn't tell me when she told you not to? Why haven't you been so obedient before?"
Shang Jingchi yelled at Lu Jingchuan and even raised his fist, ready to hit Lu Jingchuan in the face.
Lu Jingchuan lowered his head, neither refutating nor fighting back.
Wen Ran saw the situation and quickly grabbed Shang Jingchi's wrist, "Mr. Shang, this is a hospital."
In addition to them, there were many family members waiting for their loved ones to come out of the operating room.
