Chapter 227 Falling Sick
A few days later, Tao Jinmei returned to Dingsheng and, in the name of Xiao Beisheng, took back all the shares held by Old Madam Xiao.
The conference room door was closed.
The major shareholders are sitting inside.
Tao Jinmei and Old Madam Xiao were divided into two camps.
The atmosphere among shareholders is tense.
The meeting room was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Later, according to Xiao’s employees, the door of the conference room was closed for most of the day, and the people inside also discussed for most of the day.
When no one knew what was going on inside, the door opened and the shareholders came out.
Only Tao Jinmei and Old Madam Xiao remained in the conference room.
The door was not closed. Tao Jinmei said a few words to Old Madam Xiao and then left in a haughty manner.
I don’t know what Tao Jinmei said, but Mrs. Xiao’s eyes widened, her cloudy eyes shrank into a black dot, her lips trembled, and her shriveled hands, which were leaning on the crutches, had bulging veins and were shaking violently.
The old lady used all her strength to angrily yell at Tao Jinmei as she walked towards the door: "You evil creature! Don't think I don't know, this is all your little trick!"
Tao Jinmei slowly turned around and raised the corners of her mouth: "Mom, you are old, don't forget, Beisheng is my child. Mother and son are connected by heart. This Xiao family will be mine sooner or later. Hahahahaha..."
She laughed out loud, turned and walked out the door.
Madam Xiao covered her heart with both hands and suddenly began to breathe rapidly.
Gao Xun saw that the situation was not right, so he rushed over to help the old lady. However, before his hand touched her, the old lady's body suddenly staggered, and she collapsed with exhaustion.
The ambulance rushed to Dingsheng and sent Madam Xiao to the hospital for emergency treatment.
Gao Xun found the drunk Xiao Beisheng at the "W" bar.
Hearing that Old Madam Xiao was so angry that she was admitted to the hospital, Xiao Beisheng's distracted eyes finally had a glimmer of focus.
Xiao Beisheng followed Gao Xun to the hospital, where Old Madam Xiao was being treated in the operating room.
The hospital issued a critical illness notice.
Xiao Beisheng remained calm and signed.
A depressed man sat in the dim hospital corridor, exuding a dead air.
Gao Xun suddenly became worried that Xiao Beisheng would collapse from now on.
After a night of rescue, Mrs. Xiao was out of danger.
However, the doctor advised that the elderly man’s condition would not improve easily and he needed to stay in the hospital for observation.
Perhaps it was the fact that Old Madam Xiao was critically ill that gave Xiao Beisheng a fright.
He seemed to have come out of that confused state and was no longer depressed.
The cold, calm and steady Xiao Beisheng is back again.
Old Madam Xiao was in the hospital and was in a coma for seven days, and Xiao Beisheng stayed with her in the hospital for seven days.
During these seven days, Tao Jinmei used Xiao Beisheng's name to do evil things in Dingsheng and made many crazy decisions.
Xiao's stock plummeted.
Although giving up the North and South Mountains was only a small benefit for the Xiao family.
But in the long run, the Xiao family suffered great losses.
Gao Xun felt bad for Mr. Xiao.
It is clear that Tao Jinmei is using the hard work of her eldest son to feed her younger son.
Is there any mother like Tao Jinmei in the world?
Xiao Beisheng paid attention to the company's developments every day, but he said nothing and did not take any countermeasures to Tao Jinmei's actions.
Gao Xun was unsure and didn't dare to urge Xiao Beisheng.
Just watching Xiao Beisheng accompanying Old Madam Xiao's bedside, Gao Xun couldn't help but occasionally mutter in his heart:
Has Mr. Xiao cheered up, or not?
What kind of situation is this?
Is there any hope for the Xiao family?
But despite his grumbling, Gao Xun never thought of changing jobs and running away.
He thought that Mr. Xiao became like this because he divorced his wife.
I wonder if Mr. Xiao would be able to get better if his wife came to see him and persuade him?
-
On Suman's side.
Qiao Shiyan went to Su Man's hotel carrying bags of supplements.
When Su Man saw what he had in his hand, she couldn't help but say, "You don't have to spend money on these. You'll have to spend a lot more on preparing for the wedding."
Qiao Shiyan entered the room and placed the supplements on the table.
"You've already spent the money, why would you care about these supplements? Besides, these aren't all brought by me. Some of them were bought for you by Shi Xin."
"Shi Xin?"
"Yes, when she knew you were pregnant, she excitedly said she wanted to prepare clothes and a stroller for the baby, but I stopped her. I said that what you needed most right now was supplements."
A faint smile appeared on Su Man's pretty face, but then it faded away.
She asked hesitantly, "Did she say anything to us?"
"You mean, about our marriage? She must have been surprised, but she didn't ask anything. I think she seemed very happy. She had hoped you could be her sister-in-law a long time ago..."
Qiao Shiyan said this, worried that he had offended Su Man, blushing and changing his words: "I hope you can become a family with her."
Su Man felt that Qiao Shiyan was really shameless.
She said, "Thank her for me."
Qiao Shiyan nodded, and thought of something, "Have you heard about what happened with the Xiao family recently?"
Su Man shook her head blankly.
Qiao Shiyan briefly told Su Man about what had happened recently in the Xiao family.
"I always feel that there is something fishy about this matter. Beisheng and his mother didn't have a good relationship when they were in school. Why did he suddenly let his mother handle the company's affairs?"
Su Man said, "That's normal. His mother has a good relationship with Luo Yan. Now that Xiao Beisheng and Luo Yan have reconciled, Luo Yan will definitely act as the glue between them. Xiao Beisheng will also get along well with his mother for Luo Yan's sake."
Her tone was calm, and Qiao Shiyan felt that she was making an objective evaluation.
Qiao Shiyan couldn't help but feel a little happy.
"Indeed, Bei Sheng did a lot to win the smile of his beloved. But... I heard that Madam Xiao fell ill because of this."
Su Man was stunned: "Fell ill?"
"Yes," Qiao Shiyan's face was heavy. "He was given a critical illness notice and has been in a coma ever since. He just woke up these past two days."
Su Man murmured: "She has always been healthy and strong. How could she fall ill just like that..."
"The old lady is old, and coupled with the stress and the anger, she really couldn't handle it. I've seen many elderly people who were once healthy and vigorous, but once they hit that stage and fell ill, their energy and spirit plummeted and they were no longer as strong as before."
In front of Su Man, the kind face of Mrs. Xiao appeared.
After she married into the Xiao family, Old Madam Xiao always treated her well.
Although she has divorced Xiao Beisheng now, it is reasonable for her to go back and see the old lady.
She also wanted to see how the old lady was recovering.
If possible, she would like to comfort the old lady a few words...
Thinking so, Su Man did just that.
She didn't tell Qiao Shiyan, nor did she tell anyone else in the Xiao family. Instead, she found out Old Madam Xiao's hospital and ward herself, and quietly chose a time when no one was watching over her to visit her.
