Chapter 934 Irony
The doctor suggested the best possible solution for Shen Boyan at the moment.
Just in case.
After all, cancer is a disease that offers the most hope, but also the most despair.
After listening to the doctor's words, Shen Boyan pursed his lips, paused for a moment, and then said, "I understand, thank you, doctor."
Shen Boyan came out of the doctor's office, took two steps, and suddenly stopped.
He looked in another direction down the corridor, his brow furrowing slightly.
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he always felt like someone was watching him.
Shen Boyan didn't take the matter to heart and returned to Shen Congyao's ward.
Shen Congyao stood by the window, quietly watching the scenery outside.
Hearing a sound behind him, he slowly turned around and couldn't help but cough twice.
He asked Shen Boyan, "What did the doctor say?"
Shen Boyan didn't go into the specifics, but simply told him, "The doctor said we need to have surgery to remove the tumor first, followed by chemotherapy, to control the condition."
After hearing this, Shen Congyao asked, "Did your older brother tell you not to tell me the truth?"
"I'm just telling the truth."
Shen Congyao moved his lips, but ultimately said nothing.
After a moment of silence, he picked up a document from the bedside table.
"Sign this."
Shen Boyan didn't take it; he saw several large characters at the very top of the document.
Share transfer agreement.
Shen Boyan said, "I don't need this."
Shen Congyao's body was already very weak, and he had to catch his breath after saying just a few words.
The person who was once full of vigor and decisiveness is now haggard and looks like a completely different person because of illness.
“I know you hate me, I don’t blame you. You can take this as my compensation to you. Whether you want it or not, this is all I can give you.”
“I’ve already divided up Xiaolan’s and your older brother’s portions. Yours is more than theirs, so consider it my way of owing you for all these years.”
Shen Congyao was probably thinking of his deceased wife, and his expression became more sorrowful.
"I'm sorry to you and your mother. When I was young, I gave my all for my career, but now I realize that once you close your eyes, you can't take anything with you."
Wealth, fame, power, and glory—none of them belong to you; all that belongs to you is endless regret.
Unfortunately, Shen Congyao realized this too late.
If he had the chance to choose again, he probably wouldn't regret pursuing his career at all costs.
But he will definitely regret not being able to take good care of Shen Boyan's mother, nor maintaining a good father-son relationship with Shen Boyan.
Shen Congyao's words did not stir any emotion in Shen Boyan's heart.
Even if a broken mirror is restored, it will still have cracks.
This is a truth that everyone understands.
Shen Congyao was the same.
So all his efforts were in vain.
Shen Boyan took the document from Shen Congyao's hand.
Shen Congyao thought he had figured it out and was going to sign, but Shen Boyan put the document back on the bedside table.
"The reason I'm going back to the Shen family is because I want to keep my promise. There's no other reason, and you don't need to overthink it. At least until you recover, I won't go anywhere else."
Shen Congyao looked at him with a complicated expression, "You..."
Before he could finish speaking, the attending physician walked in with a nurse.
"Mr. Shen, we need to arrange for your blood to be drawn..."
"Okay." Shen Congyao had no choice but to swallow his words and cooperate with the doctor for the examination.
Shen Boyan stayed in the ward for a while before coming out.
He sat on a chair in the hallway outside, lost in thought.
A while later, his phone rang.
It was Shen Jilan who called.
"Second brother, how is Dad?"
"The tests are done, but the surgery date hasn't been set yet."
Shen Boyan heard rustling sounds on the phone. "What are you doing?"
"What else can I do? My older brother dragged me to the company to work." Shen Jilan couldn't help but complain to Shen Boyan, "I don't know what my older brother was thinking, making me do this. Seeing these documents, my head is about to explode!"
These past few days, Shen Zhong has been quite busy with things at the Shen family business, keeping him occupied on both fronts. However, such a large company is not so deserted as to be completely lacking in staff.
The reason Shen Zhongting brought Shen Jilan to the company was because of Shen Congyao's matter.
He knew that Shen Boyan would not be able to return to the Shen family business, and that he would have to manage overseas companies later, so he could not stay in the capital for a long time.
The only person the Shen family could count on was Shen Jilan.
Although Shen Zhongting thought this was a bit like forcing things to grow too fast, he had no other choice at this point; he couldn't really hand the Shen family over to outsiders.
Shen Jilan had a lot of things to do, so she had to hang up the phone after only a few words with Shen Boyan.
"Second brother, you've worked so hard taking care of Dad. I'll go see him tomorrow. I have to go now, I'll hang up first."
"good."
Shen Boyan held his phone, quietly looking at the screen.
Now even Shen Jilan, who only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun all day, has been forced to do things he doesn't like.
No matter how immature Shen Jilan is, at this critical juncture, she is forcing herself.
In contrast, Shen Boyan appears to lack filial piety.
Shen Boyan felt a sense of sarcasm in his heart.
I wonder if outsiders would find out about the Shen family's affairs and he would be criticized and called heartless.
After settling Grandpa Qin in the hospital, Qin Ce and Qiao Xing were left with nothing to do.
Qin Ce is doing well. Although he is in the capital, he occasionally holds video conferences on his computer to process documents online.
Although I'm not as busy as I was in Chongqing, I'm not too idle either.
Qiao Xing was completely different.
Although she was in Beijing, she couldn't do many things personally for Big Bad Wolf, and there weren't any particularly important decisions in the company that required her to make.
Tao Yang and his team handled most things themselves and generally didn't bother Qiao Xing.
Although they were thinking of Qiao Xing's best interests, this left Qiao Xing with absolutely nothing to do.
After leaving the hospital, Qiao Xing asked Qin Ce, "Where are we going now?"
Qin Ce thought that she must be bored staying at the Qin family's house these past few days, and wondered if he should take her out for a walk.
Qin Ce's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Tang Xi's number.
It's better to strike well than to strike early.
Qin Ce thought to himself, "Now I know where I'm going."
Just as Qin Ce had expected, as soon as the call connected, Tang Xi asked, "I heard you and Qiao Xing came to Beijing?"
Qin Ce said, "Mm."
Tang Xi said with dissatisfaction, "You're really not being fair! You came to the capital and didn't even contact me. I seriously suspect you've forgotten all about me!"
Qin Ce didn't want to listen to his rambling and asked directly, "What do you want?"
"Of course, we should have dinner! We haven't seen each other in so long. I happen to be off these two days, so why don't you bring Qiao Xing over to my place and we can have a meal together?"
