Chapter 405 I May Not Have Many Days Left
Yang Xin suddenly fell silent for a moment. Lin Rushang and Yang Xin had worked together for so many years and were good friends in private. How could she not know the meaning of Yang Xin's silence?
But Lin Rushuang still held on to a lucky mentality.
"Yang Xin, please speak up. It shouldn't be a problem. Don't scare me."
Yang Xin took a deep breath and spoke with difficulty.
"It's liver cancer, in the middle to late stages. I've been feeling a bit sallow lately, but I didn't think too much of it, thinking it was because I didn't get enough rest. But a couple of days ago, my liver started to hurt a bit, so I went to get it checked out. Who knows..."
Lin Rushuang took a breath of cold air and felt as if something was blocking her chest, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
But she knew that the most important thing for her now was to help Yang Xin recover, and she couldn't fall into negative emotions.
She regrouped herself and spoke to Yang Xin with a smile.
"Don't worry, it's just a small matter. Medicine is so advanced now, and we're not short of money. Don't worry, I'll take care of it."
"Let me tell you, I knew a very good doctor when I was abroad. I'll contact her later. You should put aside your work now and let's devote ourselves to treating the disease."
Yang Xin's voice was calm, but it was this calmness that made Lin Rushuang uneasy.
"Rushuang, let me tell you, I'm not afraid of death. Death is the simplest thing in this world. But I'm worried about those two children. I'm their only relative in this world. If even I'm gone, what will they do in the future?"
The more Yang Xin spoke, the more depressed she became, and her voice became choked.
Lin Rushuang comforted her: "Don't think too much about it now. The doctor didn't say it can't be cured. Don't jump to conclusions so quickly."
Yang Xin was afraid that he would pass on negative emotions to Lin Rushuang, so he quickly stopped.
"I'm fine, don't worry. I'm an adult, I can handle such a small thing. Besides, we should think on the bright side. Fortunately, you helped me solve the house problem before, otherwise I would be seriously ill now and might not even have a job."
Lin Rushuang: "It's best that you think this way. When I have time in the next two days, I will accompany you to the hospital. You can rest assured and recuperate at home. I can't say more to you right now."
"Um."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Rushang went directly to the Lin family's old house.
When the servants saw Lin Rushang, they still looked at her in shock. Lin Rushang thought that the servants had this reaction every time she came back, and a self-deprecating smile appeared at the corners of her lips.
Lin Rushuang directly asked the servant: "Where is my father?"
"In the room, Miss, you are finally back. Can you spare some time to accompany Mr.? His health is getting worse and worse. He and the old man are the only ones at home every day. There is no vitality at home."
“Every day is so dull.”
A patient with a disease who will not live long, and an old man over fifty years old, the two of them did not speak to each other for a whole day, which made their servants dare not say a word.
The whole house was shrouded in a depressing atmosphere.
Hearing this, Lin Rushuang said in a cold tone, "They are acting like this because Lin Yuxi hasn't come back yet."
The servant said, "That's not the case. The old man and the gentleman are still very worried about you."
Lin Rushuang forced a smile and said, "I'll go up first. We can talk about it later if you have any questions."
The servant nodded.
She went upstairs and stood at Lin Jianguo's door. She hesitated for a few seconds before raising her hand and knocking on the door.
"Come in."
Song Jianguo's weak voice came from inside. Lin Rushang frowned when she heard it. Hasn't he been receiving treatment all the time?
Why is it getting worse the more I get treated?
Lin Rushang pushed open the door. The curtains in the room were closed and it was pitch black, giving people a heavy feeling.
Lin Jianguo was lying on the hospital bed, with the oxygen mask covering most of his face, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed. His eye sockets were sunken, and the originally plump area around his eyes was now covered with dark blue, and his eyeballs were turbid as if covered by a layer of white mist.
Lin Jianguo didn't hear any movement, so he slowly turned his head. The moment he saw Lin Rushang, the expression on Lin Jianguo's face froze. He even suspected that he was too ill and had hallucinations.
"Ru...Rushuang, is it really you? Am I seeing things?"
Lin Rushuang's originally hard heart felt a little bit reluctant when she saw Lin Jianguo's weak and powerless appearance, especially in recent times. How could he have become so thin that he was almost skin and bones?
Lin Rushuang stepped forward: "Dad, it's me."
"You're back. When did you come back? I thought you would never come back to see me in this life."
Lin Jianguo looked at Lin Rushang, his eyes slightly moist.
To be honest, Lin Rushuang was still a little angry about what happened last time. The hurt they had caused her was engraved in her bones and could not be erased with a few words.
There are some things she doesn't want to talk about anymore. There's no point in repeating them over and over again, and they won't understand her.
So she just got straight to the point.
"Dad, I came back today because I have something to discuss with you. I agree to your previous proposal."
Lin Jianguo was a little surprised when he heard this and was speechless for a long time.
"You...you really agreed? Are you willing to let Yuxi out?"
"As long as you promise to stop causing trouble for Lin Yuxi in the future, I can withdraw the lawsuit and pretend that what happened before never happened. But I have to say this beforehand: if she causes trouble for me again, don't blame me for being rude."
"If it happens again, no one can protect her!"
Lin Rushang originally wanted to say that with Lin Jianguo's current health, it would be impossible to save her even if he wanted to.
But she still didn't say the most unpleasant words.
Lin Jianguo agreed without hesitation: "You...don't worry, I will never let her go out and make trouble again. From now on, you two will keep yourselves out of each other's way."
"Then you should hand over the management of the company to me now. You know that after you leave, even if Lin Yuxi falls on her, bankruptcy is only a matter of time. She doesn't have the ability to manage a business."
Lin Rushang raised her head, glanced at the dim room, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Dad, don't you really think you've messed up a good hand? You could hand the company over to me. At least I can guarantee that it can maintain normal profitability."
Lin Rushang's words really touched Lin Jianguo's heart. He knew very well that no matter how much he said now, it would be meaningless.
Lin Jianguo handed a document from the drawer to Lin Rushang.
"It's already prepared for you. Just take it to the company. I also know that He Tingchen loves you deeply. You are willing to do so much for him, so I think he must be very good to you."
Lin Rushang tightly grasped the document in her hand and nodded.
"You're right, he's really good to me. He's the best person to me besides my mom."
She was clearly smiling when she said this, but that smile was somewhat bitter.
Only she herself knew that she had really been looking forward to family love all her life, but in the end, she still didn't get it.
She also figured it out: if you can't get something, then don't force it.
Lin Rushang held the document, stood up and looked at Lin Jianguo. After a while, she said two words.
"In that case, take good care of yourself. I'll be leaving first."
Lin Jianguo looked at Lin Rushuang with a look of reluctance: "Rushuang, you...you really won't stay at home for two days to accompany Daddy? I...I may not have many days left."
