Chapter 416 I'll marry you as soon as you open your eyes
Madam Lu covered her face, completely losing her mind.
"You dare hit me? You actually dared to hit me! Men, deal with them! Kill them!"
Nan Wan didn't even bother to lift her eyelids, and only said one sentence to her subordinate.
"Put those things away."
A single glance.
The battle erupted instantly.
Nan Wan's bodyguards rushed forward like tigers descending a mountain, leaving only Yang Yi to protect her.
The scene immediately descended into chaos, with fists and kicks flying and muffled groans echoing through the air.
Nanwan News loves this kind of scene.
It just so happens that she's in a bad mood today, and these two old hags have come to her doorstep on their own initiative. If she doesn't teach them a lesson today, when will she?
"ah!"
Mrs. Lu, supporting the old lady, screamed and quickly hid to the side.
She suddenly remembered something and shouted in Nanwan's direction.
"Quickly! Bring that woman here!"
The four thugs immediately changed direction and rushed directly towards Nanwan.
Tang Ling's heart skipped a beat, and she cried out, "Wanwan!"
However, the four men hadn't even touched Nan Wan's clothes.
Yang Yi made a move.
Although his left hand was in a sling, a sharp Kazan knife had appeared in his right hand without his knowledge.
The blade flashed.
In just a few moves, the four bodyguards were all injured, having been cleanly and decisively kicked far away, lying on the ground unable to get up again.
In just seven or eight minutes, the battle was decided.
The eight bodyguards from Nanwan's side had already dealt with all of the twenty-odd thugs from the Lu family.
They lay on the ground, wailing incessantly.
"Get up! Get up now! You useless things!"
Mrs. Lu shouted angrily and took out her phone to make another call.
"Hey! Uncle! Bring some people quickly! Bring plenty of people!"
Just then, the piercing sound of police sirens grew louder as they approached.
Several police cars stopped, and Fang Zheng, along with a team of uniformed officers, quickly brought the scene under control.
The captain, who was leading the group, scanned the entire room, finally fixing his gaze on Madam Lu, speaking in a formulaic tone.
“We received a report that the Lu family came to our door to cause trouble, used violence and intimidation, and even tried to forcibly demolish the Tang family’s ancestral home.”
Upon hearing this, Madam Lu immediately jumped out.
"What nonsense are you spouting! It was their men who severely injured my son yesterday! I just want an explanation!"
She declared confidently, "Besides, this land originally belonged to the Lu family, and we have the land certificate!"
She gave him a wink, and the butler immediately brought over a land certificate.
Fang Zheng didn't even glance at the land certificate; instead, he took out another document from his briefcase.
"The ownership of this land is in dispute. Tiannan Group has already filed a lawsuit in court, and the complaint has also been sent to Lu's Group. Is Mrs. Lu unaware of this?"
Grandma Lu stepped forward, leaning on her cane, and snorted coldly.
"Even if this land is eventually acquired by Tiannan Group, Tiannan Group still belongs to my grandson Lu Qinglin, so in the end it still belongs to our Lu family!"
She paused, a greedy glint in her eyes.
“I heard he was seriously injured. If anything happens to him, his entire estate should rightfully be inherited by my Lu family!”
Upon hearing this, everyone around was astonished.
That old woman is too cruel.
With her grandson's life hanging in the balance, instead of caring about his injuries, she's openly eyeing his inheritance.
Nan Wan clenched her fist instantly, her knuckles turning white.
Fang Zheng then took out another document and displayed it to everyone.
"This is a letter of severance signed by President Lu himself, severing all ties with the Lu family. This statement has now been published online."
"Moreover, President Lu has already made a will, and the Lu family will not receive a single penny of his assets."
These two documents completely shattered Mrs. Lu's psychological defenses.
She lost her composure and rushed forward to tear up the documents.
"Impossible! What kind of bullshit severance letter is this! My Lu family doesn't acknowledge him! He was born a member of the Lu family, and he will die a member of the Lu family!"
Fang Zheng took a step back, avoiding her, and turned to the police captain beside him, saying something.
"Now, shouldn't we take them back for investigation?"
The captain waved his hand.
"Take everyone away!"
"They have guns! Officers, they have guns! Arrest them!" Mrs. Lu was still making a last-ditch effort.
The captain glanced at her and said casually.
"If they really had guns, your head would have been blown to bits by now."
"take away!"
Tang Ling also got into the police car; she needed to cooperate with the police in making a statement.
The scene finally quieted down.
Just then, Fang Zheng's phone rang.
He answered the phone, and after listening to only a few sentences, his face suddenly darkened.
He walked quickly to Nan Wan, his tone urgent.
"Miss Nan, it's a call from the hospital. Mr. Lu's condition is not good!"
Nan Wan's heart sank suddenly, and she quickly turned around and rushed to her car.
"Back to the hospital!"
The hospital corridor was long and white. Nan Wan walked quickly ahead, the clattering of her high heels sounding particularly jarring in the empty space.
Fang Zheng and Yang Yi followed closely behind.
When she arrived at the ICU entrance, Qingning and Huo Shenyuan were talking to the doctor, and everyone's expression was very solemn.
"How is Lu Qinglin?" Nan Wan asked, her throat a little dry.
The doctor turned to look at her.
Are you a patient's family member?
Nan Wan nodded quickly.
The doctor took a stack of forms and handed them to her.
"This is a critical condition notice. Please sign it."
"Twenty minutes ago, the patient's heart stopped beating once, but we managed to bring it back to life. If this happens again, we may not be able to save him."
Please prepare yourself mentally.
Nan Wan's voice trembled slightly.
"Doctor, please save him, you must save him."
The doctor sighed.
"This morning, overseas experts arrived and have already conducted a consultation. Now, 36 hours have passed, and not only has he shown no signs of waking up, but his heart has also stopped beating. His condition is very serious."
"He had been hypothermic for too long and was in severe cardiopulmonary failure."
The doctor shook his head and didn't continue.
The unspoken words are more despairing than the spoken words themselves.
Nan Wan clutched the thick stack of critical illness notices, her hands trembling violently. The pen tip hovered over the paper, but she couldn't bring herself to write.
She never imagined that this day would come.
They will sign a critical condition notice for him.
In the end, she didn't sign the stack of documents.
She only managed to say one sentence in a hoarse voice.
"I want to go see him."
The doctor nodded.
The hospital director specifically instructed that patients here are allowed to be visited.
Qingning watched Nan Wan walk into the ICU, her eyes red.
Huo Shenyuan gently pressed her head against his chest, then took her left hand, which was wrapped in gauze, and asked softly.
"Does it still hurt?"
Qingning shook her head.
She's already gone all in.
Hopefully, Lu Qinglin can come back to life.
The air in the ICU ward was filled with the smell of disinfectant.
Lu Qinglin was wearing an oxygen mask, his eyes were closed, and his face was deathly pale.
Various monitoring devices were attached to his chest, and fragile curves flickered on the screens.
Nan Wan's gaze fell on his left chest.
There was a delicate little white lamb and a rose.
She reached out and gently touched that patch of skin with her fingertips, and her eyes instantly welled up with tears.
Suddenly, her face darkened, and her tone became cold and harsh.
"Lu Qinglin, open your eyes."
"Don't think that just because you're asleep you don't have to pay back the debts you owe me."
Her tone suddenly rose.
"Lu Qinglin, don't think you can just walk away like this."
"I command you to open your eyes, and you are not allowed to sleep, you are not allowed to sleep again!"
"I won't agree!"
"Open your eyes!"
But he lay there, motionless, unresponsive to her commands.
Nanwan's tears finally broke free and fell in large drops.
All her toughness crumbled, and her tone softened, becoming somewhat coaxing.
"Lu Qinglin, open your eyes and look at me."
"As long as you open your eyes, I will forgive you, and I will not hate you anymore."
"I'll let go of everything and start over with you. Okay?"
At this moment, she had let go of all hatred.
She didn't want to hate him anymore; she just wanted him to wake up.
She took his cold hand and pressed it against her burning face; tears quickly soaked his palm.
"Lu Qinglin, do you still want to marry me?"
"If you want to marry me, open your eyes."
"I will marry you as soon as you open your eyes."
Will you marry me?
She kept offering him terms, but he was greedy and still refused to agree.
Finally, Nan Wan leaned close to his ear and whispered something in a voice only the two of them could hear.
"Lu Qinglin, your child is still alive."
Do you want to touch him?
"Do you want to see him born? Do you want to see him grow up?"
She guided his large hand to rest on her flat stomach.
“He’s right here, tiny, and already 11 weeks along.”
"Open your eyes and look, Lu Qinglin, open your eyes..."
Before he could finish speaking, the electrocardiogram machine next to him suddenly emitted a sharp, long beep.
The pulsating curve on the screen turned into a cold, straight line.
Nanwan was so frightened that she stopped breathing.
His response to her was to stop his heartbeat?
"Lu Qinglin!"
"Lu Qinglin, I won't allow you to die!"
She screamed wildly, feeling all the strength drain from her body in an instant.
The doctor and nurses rushed in.
"Quickly provide first aid!"
"Adrenaline..."
Nan Wan stared blankly at the scene, her body trembling violently, her ears ringing, unable to hear anything, only knowing that the group of white figures were constantly busy.
Finally, she only heard the doctor glance at his watch and make a note of something.
"Resuscitation failed; time of death: 11:47 AM."
Then, a white cloth was pulled up and placed over his head.
Nan Wan shook her head in disbelief.
No.
No, it won't.
He won't die.
How could he die?
His debts are not yet paid off, so why isn't he going to plant his roses or build his house?
Does he not want her anymore?
Nan Wan's body went limp, her vision went black, and she collapsed straight down.
"Quick! Help her up!"
The doctor rushed forward and supported her swaying body.
The doctor carried Nan Wan out and said, "The patient has died. Please accept my condolences."
A layer of sadness clung to the expressions of everyone outside.
Fang Zheng's tears fell. "President Lu."
He leaned his head against the wall, not wanting anyone to see his face.
Huo Shenyuan quickly picked Nan Wan up and carried her to his side.
Qingning stepped forward and asked, "Can I go in and take a look?"
The doctor nodded, and Qingning went inside. A short while later, all the nurses came out…
