Su Wanjun lay on the hospital bed, looking weak, and waved her hand.
"It's nothing, I was just too angry for a moment, so I couldn't catch my breath."
Dongfang Qingfeng pretended not to know and said, "So that's how it is. We're all getting old, so we should take care of our health and not get too angry."
Su Wanjun put on a touching act: "You're so lucky. You've lived most of your life, and in the end, you're still disliked by the children."
Dongfang Qingfeng subtly curled the corners of his lips, then offered gentle words of comfort.
"It's okay, you still have me."
He reached out to grab Su Wanjun's hand, but she dodged it and weakly looked outside.
"Could you call me a nurse?"
Although Dongfang Qingfeng felt a little uncomfortable, he still called a nurse for Su Wanjun.
The nurses kept surrounding Su Wanjun to conduct the examination, and Dongfang Qingfeng couldn't get close.
After finally getting close, Su Wanjun asked him to help buy food.
Dongfang Qingfeng didn't think anything was wrong and immediately went to buy food for him.
He waited at the elevator entrance for a long time but couldn't get on. So he simply stood up, leaned on his cane, and walked downstairs.
After taking a few steps and seeing that no one was around, he simply started running.
He wasn't actually paralyzed; he was just acting.
Previously, it was to lower Dongfang William's guard; now, it's to make Su Wanjun feel sorry for him.
When he returned after buying the food, he discovered that Lin Qingtong and Shen Tinghe had arrived.
Su Wanjun ate the food they had bought.
He was immediately displeased, but he didn't want to show it, so he simply placed the lunchbox on the bedside table while sitting in his wheelchair.
Then, forcing a smile, he asked, "Qingtong and Tinghe are here. Why didn't you tell me beforehand? I could have gotten you an extra serving of food."
Lin Qingtong smiled faintly as she looked at Dongfang Qingfeng's eager expression.
"Thank you for your concern, Uncle. We couldn't get in touch with you, so we didn't know you were here."
"If we had known you were coming, we wouldn't have come."
Dongfang Qingfeng felt somewhat uncomfortable upon hearing this.
But given Lin Qingtong's status, he could only give an awkward smile.
"Oh, I see. It's alright, you can come and see your mother."
"She's getting old, all she wants is for her children to be around and take good care of her. Don't upset her if you don't want to."
"That's just how William East is, always so unreliable. Don't have any hope for him, or you'll get hurt."
Lin Qingtong nodded thoughtfully, "That's right, if you don't have hope, you won't get hurt."
As he said this, his gaze was fixed on Dongfang Qingfeng, as if there was some hidden meaning in his words.
Dongfang Qingfeng felt a chill run down his spine under her gaze and gave an awkward laugh.
"Why don't you sit down and talk?"
He made the suggestion in a manner befitting a host.
Lin Qingtong smiled and retorted, "Thank you for your concern, Mr. Dongfang. We will sit if we want to. This is my mother, there's no need for formalities."
Dongfang Qingfeng felt a little embarrassed, but he didn't say anything.
He then turned his wheelchair to Su Wanjun's bedside, looked at her with a smile, and spoke in a deliberately affectionate tone.
“Wanjun, I’ve been back for so many days now, and I’ve always felt guilty for not being able to take good care of her for over twenty years.”
"Now that I'm finally back to normal life, I want to marry her."
The moment the word "marriage" was mentioned, the ward fell into a collective silence.
Lin Qingtong, in particular, took a long time to utter a single question.
"I've never heard Mom mention marriage before. Was it just a one-sided announcement from you?"
Dongfang Qingfeng was very strong-willed and did not show any sign of distress, continuing to gaze affectionately in Su Wanjun's direction.
"Wanjun, I made a mistake back then, so I want to make it up to you as much as possible now."
"I hope you can give me a chance. If you are willing to marry me, all my assets will be yours."
He directly handed a document to Su Wanjun; it was from a foreign foundation.
Lin Qingtong glanced at it; this fund could only prey on those who didn't know anything about it, and her mother didn't understand it very well.
But if you offer it to her, she absolutely refuses.
Because holding this thing in your hand will actually encroach on your assets.
Lin Qingtong pretended nothing had happened and looked at Su Wanjun.
"Mom, what do you think?"
Su Wanjun had no idea how to respond, and simply looked at Lin Qingtong.
"This is no small matter; we're afraid we need to discuss it."
The smile on Dongfang Qingfeng's face faded slightly; he had thought victory was assured.
After all, Su Wanjun used to love him so much, and given her good qualities, that's why he chose her to have his child.
Unexpectedly, she proved to be a good mother and gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl.
But he couldn't show anything wrong now, so he just smiled and said...
"It's okay, I can do it. I will always stand behind you and wait for you to turn around."
He put on a show of deep affection, but to Lin Qingtong, it was simply laughable.
Does this person think that others can't see anything?
Dongfang Qingfeng quickly left the ward, but he eavesdropped on Lin Qingtong and Su Wanjun's conversation at the door.
"Mom, what are you thinking?"
She frantically winked at Su Wanjun.
Su Wanjun realized what was happening and feigned shyness as she spoke.
“He has suffered all these years, being imprisoned by William of the East. Now that we have met again, I still want to give him a chance, after all, he did it to save me back then.”
Lin Qingtong smiled and cooperated: "Mom, I respect your choice, but we can't accept his things. We just need to show our attitude."
Dongfang Qingfeng, who was outside the door, heard the conversation between the two and smiled with satisfaction before heading towards the nurses' station.
He specifically inquired about Su Wanjun's situation.
Upon realizing that the other party was indeed as he knew, his heart finally sank back down.
It seems my plan is about to succeed, as long as I get involved with Shen Tinghe.
Then he can be used to expand his influence abroad, and his dark cult will surely flourish.
He went to the stairwell with an excited expression to make a phone call to his subordinates.
The nurse at the nurses' station glanced at it, then turned and went into the break room next door.
He pushed open the door, and there stood a handsome figure.
"How so?"
The nurse nodded and replied, "He asked about the specifics and then went to make a phone call."
Upon hearing this, William of the East revealed a satisfied smile.
It seems that everything is developing as I imagined.
He put on his white coat, then went to the ward and told Shen Tinghe and the others what had just happened.
Shen Tinghe smiled and said, "Very well, if he wants to get something, then he should pay the price."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Dongfang Qingfeng pushed open the door and walked in, startling everyone.
I never expected him to show up so suddenly.
