This project is crucial for Sikong Group to open up overseas markets, and they cannot afford to fail at this critical moment.
Going to the hospital can wait until the case is over before I go see her.
Sikong Jingyu frowned slightly: "Come pick me up at the old house in half an hour."
Sikong Jingyu rolled out of bed, feeling refreshed.
After washing up, Sikong Jingyu dressed neatly, picked up her phone from the bed, and was about to leave when she noticed a safety buckle on the side of the bed.
I picked it up casually.
But it wasn't his piece.
His safety buckle had the character "时" engraved on it, but this safety buckle had the characters "司空" engraved on it.
Did she leave it behind this morning?
Sikong Jingyu remembered seeing Nie Shirong go to the boxing club to pick it up.
Nie Shirong is Shi Yu's nominal wife, and Shi Yu is Shi Wan's younger brother. Shi Wan must have left the safety buckle at the club and asked Nie Shirong to go and get it for her. Nie Shirong hadn't had a chance to give the safety buckle to Shi Wan yet. That must be it. Everything makes sense.
After Sikong Jingyu sorted things out, he hung the peace buckle around his neck.
We went downstairs.
This was originally intended for the future granddaughter-in-law of the Sikong family, so he'll keep it for Nie Shirong for now and give it to her when he returns from abroad.
At the dining table, Grandma Sikong was eating vegetarian buns. When she saw her most beloved grandson coming downstairs with a beaming smile, Grandma Sikong beckoned to him: "Come and sit down."
In the morning, Grandma Sikong saw Wanwan hurriedly leave the room from a corner. Now, seeing her eldest grandson with a rosy face and a joyful expression, she figured things had gone well.
Grandma Sikong thought to herself, "This time, Wanwan and her eldest grandson will definitely be able to get married."
Sikong Jingyu walked over, sat down next to his grandmother, and slowly drank his milk, unable to help but complain: "Grandma, how could you use such despicable methods?"
Grandma chuckled, saying it was harmless: "What's with all this talk of vulgarity? Just tell me, did you feel refreshed this morning?"
Sikong Jingyu never expected that his grandmother, at her advanced age, would be so open-minded.
"Grandma, you really are..."
"Really what?" Grandma asked back.
Sikong Jingyu's lips curled up slightly, but his face remained impassive: "Indeed, you've done a good deed."
Grandma Sikong patted Sikong Jingyu on the shoulder with satisfaction, smiling from ear to ear: "That's right, Wanwan is a good girl. You will definitely not suffer if you marry her. You two should live a good life together from now on."
Sikong Jingyu frowned. "Wanwan?"
It's late!
What's going on with Guan Shiwan?
Could it be that Grandma thought it was late last night?
Sikong Jingyu suddenly felt the need to explain to her grandmother: "Grandma, you've misunderstood. The person last night wasn't Shi Wan."
"I think you're the one who's misunderstood. I saw Wanwan come out of your room with my own eyes this morning," Grandma pointed out the truth incisively.
“Impossible, Grandma, you’re mistaken.” Sikong Jingyu said firmly.
Although his mind wasn't very active last night, he was certain that the person he saw was not Shi Wan.
That face couldn't possibly be from Shiwan.
He was also quite certain that he had indeed entered the land of tenderness he had been longing for last night.
Grandma Sikong: "I didn't see wrong, it's Wanwan."
Sikong Jingyu: "Impossible, I'll check the surveillance footage later."
"The surveillance cameras there were broken. If I had known you wouldn't believe me, I should have had them fixed beforehand. Now they've ruined my reputation!"
Unable to explain, Grandma Sikong was so anxious she almost jumped up, pointing at Sikong Jingyu's neck and saying anxiously, "How can it not be my Wanwan? The safety buckle you're wearing around your neck, isn't that my Wanwan's?"
Sikong Jingyu touched the safety amulet hanging around his neck. If he hadn't seen her go to the club to pick it up, he might have actually believed his grandmother's nonsense.
With a smirk, Sikong Jingyu said confidently, "Even if this safety amulet is from Shi Wan, the woman from last night was definitely not her."
Seeing that Sikong Jingyu was refusing to pay, Sikong's grandmother called over the servants: "If you don't believe me, ask them if the person last night was really Wanwan."
The servants nodded in agreement: "Young master, the person last night was indeed the young mistress."
"I don't believe it," Sikong Jingyu insisted.
"Why don't you believe me? You little rascal, you didn't take advantage of Wanwan and don't want to admit it, did you?" As she spoke, Grandma's cane struck Sikong Jingyu's back.
Sikong Jingyu swiftly jumped aside and slowly straightened his clothes: "They're in cahoots with you. Under your tyranny, they even dared to drag me around last night. What else would they dare disobey you? If you tell them to go east, would they dare to go west? If you tell them to say something, they'll definitely do it your way."
Grandma Sikong leaned on her cane, which thumped loudly on the solid wood floor: "You shameless scoundrel, all that talk and no action, you just don't want to take responsibility!"
"Take responsibility for what? I will only take responsibility for my woman. In short, I don't believe a word you said to them this morning." With that, Sikong Jingyu walked straight out of the living room.
Sikong Jingyu was still concerned about his grandmother's advanced age; otherwise, he would have told her the truth about his divorce from Shi Wan, thus putting an end to her hopes for a relationship with Shi Wan.
"Stop right there!" Grandma Sikong hurriedly chased after her.
With his back to his grandmother, Sikong Jingyu waved his hand and said, "I can't stand, Grandma. The private jet is already waiting outside. I have to rush abroad to sign a contract."
"Ouch... my head hurts, it must be my high blood pressure acting up again, you have to take me to the hospital quickly." Grandma Sikong groaned, pressing her temples and pretending to be in great pain.
"Grandma, you used that trick last night. You should save your energy and go back to rest." Sikong Jingyu shook his head helplessly.
Grandma Sikong was furious and pointed at Sikong Jingyu's back, scolding, "You little rascal, I've raised you for nothing!"
Amidst Grandma Sikong's farewell cheers, Sikong Jingyu smiled gently, his face beaming, and head held high as he walked towards his private jet.
"Get out! Get out! If you don't want me, Wanwan, just wait and see! You'll regret it one day... This little brat, he's got wings now, he's going to bully this old woman..."
Grandma Sikong stomped her feet in anger, but did not forget to instruct the housekeeper: "Keep a close eye on this little rascal and see which women are around him lately. Get rid of those who need to be dealt with, and use any methods that need to be used."
"Yes, Madam," the butler replied, sighing as he watched Sikong Jingyu disappear into the distance.
***
Jinxiu Residential Area.
Upon seeing the doctors and nurses in white coats enter the house, the patient's family member, Ruan Lingyue, described the patient's condition: "Doctor, my mother came home from her night shift this morning and complained of chest pain. I've never heard her mention chest pain before."
After putting down the first aid kit, Shi Wan and Lin Yuanyuan immediately checked on the patient's condition and performed a bedside electrocardiogram.
It was probably the first time she had experienced sudden chest pain, that feeling of impending death. The patient was very anxious, pressing her hands to her chest. "Doctor, my chest hurts terribly. It hurts when I sit, it hurts when I lie down. I feel palpitations, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and I'm covered in cold sweat. Am I going to die?"
