"You guys are back. Have you rested enough today? If not, you can go back and continue resting. I'll stay here tonight."
"That won't do." Liu Ze sat on the other side of the bed. It was not acceptable for his mother to stay with another man, even in the hospital.
"Uncle Xu, go back and have a rest. You've been tired all day."
Liu Huanyi persuaded Xu Chuxiao to go back, but Xu Chuxiao was unwilling.
"No, I'm not tired at all. As long as I can see your mother and take care of your mother, I don't feel tired."
What's more, Liu Jin was just lying on the bed, he didn't need to do anything at all.
Liu Huan couldn't persuade him, so he just let him do what he wanted.
Looking at the soup pot on the bedside, she knew that Jiang Xiaoluo had been there.
When Jiang Xiaoluo arrived, she happened to catch the doctor's ward rounds. The doctor said that Liu Jin would not wake up for a while. When she heard this, she burst into tears on the spot, and the doctor was at a loss as to how to comfort her.
In the end, seeing that Xu Chuxiao took very considerate care of Liu Jin, even considering the humidity and temperature in the room, he felt relieved to go back.
"If you need someone to take turns to look after me, just call me. I'm always available."
Xu Chuxiao agreed, but he didn't plan to actually notify Jiang Xiaoluo to come.
Even if he really needed help, he could stop what he was doing and take care of Liu Jin with all his strength.
"Huanyi, come out, I have something to discuss with you." Xu Chuxiao suddenly thought of something and said to Liu Huanyi with a serious expression.
Liu Huanyi followed Xu Chuxiao out, leaving Liu Ze and Huo Yuli looking at each other in the ward.
Huo Yuli looked normal, but Liu Ze was very embarrassed. He crossed his arms and looked at Huo Yuli for a long time.
They left the ward and came to the emergency passage. Liu Huan noticed Xu Chuxiao's serious expression and couldn't help but become serious too.
"Uncle Xu, what's wrong?"
"The doctor said during his rounds this morning that your mother's life could be in danger at any time. Although she is not life-threatening now, she may have to go to the ICU if the wound becomes infected. So I was wondering, should I notify the Gu family?"
Liu Huanyi hadn't thought about this matter. He was distracted by Liu Jin's injury and forgot about the Gu family's affairs.
"Mrs. Gu's blood pressure soared last night. She was sent to the hospital this morning. She could have a cerebral hemorrhage at any time." Xu Chuxiao sighed, "If we don't tell them now, they may die."
Liu Huanyi pondered for a moment and decided to agree on behalf of Liu Jin.
"Then tell the Gu family."
Xu Chuxiao looked at her seriously, "Are you sure? Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. If I tell you, there will be no turning back."
"Sure. At worst I'll wait until Mom wakes up and tell her."
Xu Chuxiao said calmly, "I'm not afraid that she will wake up and blame me, but this matter concerns her after all, so I have to discuss it with you."
Even if Liu Huanyi does not support it, he will consider telling the Gu family. Even if Liu Jin wakes up and blames him, he will have no regrets as long as he does not let Liu Jin have any regrets.
After confirming, Xu Chuxiao called Old Mrs. Gu.
Liu Huanyi didn't know what they talked about, he only knew that the call lasted for five minutes, and then Mrs. Gu chartered a plane from Beijing to see Liu Jin.
When Mrs. Gu arrived, Xu Chuxiao brought Liu Huanyi downstairs to greet her.
Liu Ze knew that they had already told the Gu family about the matter. Although he did not support it, he did not object either. His only request was that Huo Yuli, the outsider, leave.
It just so happened that the VR project needed to make a critical decision, and Liu Huanyi couldn't go back, so Huo Yuli had to go back to take charge of the work for her, which just happened to avoid the arrival time of Old Lady Gu.
Huo Yuli wanted to tell her to take care of herself, but before he could finish his words, Liu Ze stuffed him into the car.
Liu Ze offered to send Huo Yu to the airport, and his car would stay in Su City temporarily. Although Liu Huanyi felt strange, he agreed.
After all, she had to pick up Old Lady Gu later and had no time to send Huo Yu to the airport.
Watching them get into the car, Liu Huanyi immediately went back to accompany Liu Jin.
Huo Yuli looked at the person in the rearview mirror reluctantly, and it took him a long time to look away.
"Mr. Huo, are you sincere to my sister?" Liu Ze asked bluntly. He offered to send Huo Yuli away just to have a chance to be alone with him and question him about his attitude towards his younger sister.
If Huo Yuli was just playing around with Liu Huanyi, he would not let Huo Yuli go just because of the Huo family's power. He would make Huo Yuli pay the price even if it meant losing all his family fortune.
Huo Yuli looked relaxed, as if he had finally waited for him to bring up the topic.
“Never been so serious.”
Liu Ze glanced at him and said, "But I heard that you are engaged. Don't you want to settle your engagement first?"
"I'm dealing with the engagement, and the reasons are a bit complicated. But believe me, I won't pursue her before I'm ready."
Huo Yuli was full of confidence. He thought that the engagement with the Gu family was nothing but a farce. Regardless of the fact that the Gu family had not found the person yet, even if one day the Gu family found their long-lost daughter, she might already have a family and there would be no need for him to fulfill the engagement.
Whatever the situation, he had a way to deal with it.
So now he just focuses on pursuing Liu Huanyi. As long as they are together, any difficulties can be solved.
"Okay, I think you're thoughtful." Liu Ze was barely satisfied with his answer. "But judging from my sister's attitude, it seems she hasn't accepted you yet. You can't force her. Everything must be done according to her wishes."
"Of course."
Even if Liu Ze did not confess, he would never do anything against Liu Huanyi's wishes. He had patience and confidence, and no one was more suitable for Liu Huanyi than him.
The two men reached a subtle consensus. They didn't talk about this matter again in the second half of the journey. Instead, they talked about the recent changes in the business world and unexpectedly found that they agreed on some points of view.
Huo Yuli possesses both the ruthlessness and sophistication of the older generation and the courage and boldness of the new generation. His vision for business is so accurate that Liu Ze is impressed.
"Fortunately, you are not developing in Sioux City, otherwise half of the companies in Sioux City would be eaten up by you."
Huo Yuli smiled slightly. Although he had not developed in Sucheng before, he now has plans to expand his business to Sucheng.
After all, the Liu family's foundation is here. If you want to be with Liu Huanyi for a long time, you have to plan for the future.
Although Sucheng is not as wealthy as Beijing, Huo Yuli is not interested in making a lot of money. He just wants to have a closer connection with the Liu family.
"Even if I develop in Su City, I will choose to cooperate with you first. There is no possibility of you being eaten by me."
Liu Ze suddenly felt that it was not a bad idea to have Huo Yuli as his brother-in-law. At least it could avoid the company from being merged.
Downstairs at Sucheng First Hospital, Xu Chuxiao and Liu Huanyi stood at the door together.
Liu Huanyi had met Mrs. Gu several times before, so he didn't feel much this time.
Xu Chuxiao was a little nervous. After all, after Old Lady Gu and Liu Jin recognized each other, his and Old Lady Gu's identities would also change.
