Chapter 174: Visitation Prohibited
Fang Lin: "I also called Dean Dong to ask."
Jiang Huixin thought it was Gu Qinghui who called, "My sister-in-law really cares about my mother-in-law. She even called Dean Dong in person. I should learn from my sister-in-law and care more about my mother-in-law in the future."
Fang Lin rolled her eyes: "Okay, Jiang Huixin, there's no one else here, stop pretending."
Jiang Huixin shut her mouth awkwardly and stopped talking.
The four of them remained silent all the way until they arrived at the door of old lady Zhang Yulan's ward, where they were stopped by two bodyguards guarding the door.
Fang Lin was very angry and shouted, "Don't you know who I am? Why are you stopping us?"
The two bodyguards remained calm, and one of them replied, "Madam, I'm sorry, the old man has ordered that no visitors are allowed. Please don't make things difficult for us. If you want to go in, please ask for the old man's permission first."
Jiang Huixin was puzzled and asked the bodyguard, "Why doesn't my father-in-law let us visit my mother-in-law? I even got up early to prepare breakfast. Can I bring breakfast in for my mother-in-law?"
Bodyguard: "Sorry, we don't have the authority to let you in."
"I'll call Ma Teng," Fang Lin said as she took out her phone and dialed.
The other party picked up the phone.
She quickly said, "Assistant Matt, are you with my father-in-law? This is what's going on. I'm in the hospital right now and came to see my mother-in-law, but the security guard at the door said my father-in-law said visits aren't allowed. Does that mean family members aren't allowed, either?"
Ma Teng: "Yes, this is the old man's order, you can go back."
Fang Lin refused to give up: "Why? You have to give me a reason, right? Why did my father-in-law do this?"
Ma Teng was displeased: "The old man must have his reasons for doing this. Does he need to ask for your consent? If there is nothing else, just hang up. I have to go to a meeting soon."
Jiang Huixin saw Fang Lin hang up the phone and guessed that Fang Lin must have hit a wall with Ma Teng.
She pursed her lips and smiled, "Since my father-in-law doesn't allow us to visit, he must have his reasons. So we won't go in and disturb my mother-in-law. Mrs. Zhang, let's go home. When my father-in-law agrees, we can come to see my mother-in-law."
Mrs. Zhang nodded and said, "Okay, ma'am."
When Gu Yunxi saw Jiang Huixin leaving, she pulled Fang Lin's arm and said, "Mom, let's go back too. We'll come over again when grandpa agrees to let us visit grandma."
Fang Lin glanced at the door of the ward, feeling very unwilling, but there was nothing she could do.
After listening to the report from his special assistant Ma Teng, the old man laughed sarcastically and said, "I guessed that the two of them would not miss this opportunity. Their concern is fake, they are all going for the 15% stake."
After the old man finished speaking, he was silent for a moment, "There will be someone else who will call you, and that one will be the difficult one. No matter what he says, don't give in."
"Okay, old man." As soon as Ma Teng finished speaking, his cell phone rang.
He glanced at his phone and reported, "Grandpa, it's Zhang's brother-in-law."
The brother-in-law of the Zhang family that Ma Teng mentioned is Zhang Yulan’s younger brother Zhang Jincheng, the current chairman of the Zhang family business, Huafeng Group.
Zhang Yulan's parents passed away in the past few years. Zhang Jincheng was the only son and naturally became the heir.
Zhang Yulan trusts her younger brother very much and tells Zhang Jincheng everything.
What Gu Hean was most worried about was that Zhang Yulan might transfer her shares to this ambitious younger brother.
Zhang Jincheng has three sons, two of whom are married and have their own families, while the other lives abroad all year round and his whereabouts are very mysterious.
No one knows what he is doing.
But the Zhang family is not as disunited as the Gu family.
They are very united. In recent years, Huafeng Group has developed very rapidly and is already catching up with Anyuan Group.
Back then, Anyuan was just a small company, and Gu Hean built the company up little by little. However, because of a wrong move, problems arose in the company's operations.
Fortunately, my father-in-law came to my aid and I was able to escape the disaster.
From then on, with the help of his father-in-law, An Yuan was like riding a rocket and became bigger and bigger.
Later, it even surpassed Huafeng Group.
Zhang Jincheng was very dissatisfied with this and always blamed his father for not acquiring Anyuan Group.
But Zhang's father believed that Anyuan could become big because of Gu Hean's ability.
If Gu Hean is incompetent, no matter how much help the Zhang family gives, An Yuan will not be able to get up.
Zhang Jincheng has been suppressing his dissatisfaction with his brother-in-law Gu Hean in his heart, and secretly waiting for an opportunity to take down An Yuan.
Gu Hean asked Ma Teng to answer the phone.
Ma Teng picked up the phone, and Zhang Jincheng asked directly on the other end of the phone: "Assistant Matt, is my brother-in-law with you? I want to ask him something about my sister, please ask him to answer the phone."
Ma Teng calmed down and said, "Sorry, Chairman Zhang, the old man is in a meeting and can't answer the phone."
Zhang Jincheng seemed to have anticipated Ma Teng's answer. "Well, let me ask you, what happened to my sister? Why was she sent to Shengde's psychiatric department?"
"I heard that there are bodyguards guarding the door of her ward and no visitors are allowed?"
Ma Teng: "Chairman Zhang is very well-informed, but you don't have to worry. My wife just has an old illness. You know, she has your family's hereditary disease. Yesterday she came to the company and made a big scene."
"The old man rushed her to the hospital for her health. Visitors are not allowed now because her emotions have not stabilized yet and she needs treatment and rest."
Zhang Jincheng: "Then why did my sister become ill? Was she stimulated by something?"
Ma Teng: "We don't know about this. In fact, apart from yesterday, she had an attack a few days ago. It was at home at the time. She was unreasonable and hit the old man. She pushed him down and hit his head."
"So the old man has been hospitalized these days, and was discharged yesterday to deal with his wife's problem."
Zhang Jincheng: "According to what you said, my sister is crazy?"
Ma Teng: "Chairman Zhang, I'm not a doctor. You have to ask a doctor. However, I'm afraid the doctor will have to do an examination first before telling you. You might as well wait patiently for a few days and see the results of the examination."
Zhang Jincheng was silent for a moment: "Okay, if my sister's test results come out, please be sure to notify me. Also, tell my brother-in-law that he'd better not play any tricks, otherwise I won't let him go."
Ma Teng: "Okay, Chairman Zhang, that's it for now. I'll be busy now. Bye."
Ma Teng hung up the phone and looked at Gu Hean.
Gu Hean stood up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked outside. Most of Jiangbei City was within his sight.
The H-shaped building in the distance is particularly eye-catching. It is the Zhang family's Huafeng Group Building.
Gu Hean knew that Zhang Jincheng was coveting Anyuan Group and had been waiting for an opportunity to take over Anyuan.
He sighed deeply and murmured softly, "If the descendants of my Gu family could be as united as the Zhang family, I wouldn't need to be afraid of him, Zhang Jincheng."
Ma Teng pushed his glasses on his nose and replied, "Grandpa, I think when it comes to business management, having more people is not necessarily a good thing. More people means more ideas, and it is difficult to reach a consensus."
"You only need to pay attention to one person."
Gu Hean turned around and looked at Ma Teng: "Are you talking about Yun Chi? By the way, how has Yun Chi's work performance been these two days? If he doesn't work harder, Anyuan will fall into the hands of outsiders."
