Chapter 159 The plane landed
Chen Yan's secretary, Zheng Li, arrived at the hospital first and immediately asked her, "Madam, how is Mr. Chen?"
Song Yilin instinctively wanted to retort, but swallowed her words: "President Chen has been taken to the emergency room, and we don't know his condition yet. Please inform President Chen's family."
"Mr. Chen, you have no family. They have all passed away."
Song Yilin recalled that he said their village was in the epicenter of the earthquake, and many people died.
I felt even more guilty. We Chinese people value inheritance and the continuation of the family line. Chen Yan, being such a traditional person, cared about this even more.
He's the only one left in his family. If he dies too, his lineage will end.
Soon after, Xiao Zhang, Wang Qianqian, and General Manager Qi of the New Energy Store also arrived.
With tears in his eyes, Xiao Zhang asked, "President Song, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, Qianqian. You're heavily pregnant, you should go home first."
Wang Qianqian touched her belly and looked at Song Yilin's utterly despondent expression, knowing that the situation was probably more than just the baby being hospitalized; there must be something else going on.
The child is only in the treatment room and should be out of danger, so there must be something else going on that is beyond Song Yilin's capacity to handle.
He hugged Song Yilin and said, "It's okay, everything will be alright."
This was a tacit understanding built up over so many years; Wang Qianqian knew at a glance that things weren't so simple.
Song Yilin hugged Wang Qianqian, and tears quickly streamed down her face.
Wang Qianqian simply stroked her back silently.
Song Yilin cried for a moment and then stopped: "Go back, don't stay up all night, the child is more important."
Wang Qianqian shook her head: "My child isn't that weak."
Song Yilin knew that she needed comfort right now, but she didn't want a pregnant woman to stay up all night with her.
Just as Song Yilin was about to offer some words of comfort, Gu Sinan appeared.
Song Yilin patted Wang Qianqian on the back: "The child's father is here. You should go back with him."
Perhaps Wang Qianqian had already told Gu Sinan about tonight's events, which is why he was able to arrive here in such a short time.
Gu Sinan walked to within a meter of Wang Qianqian, not daring to get too close: "Qianqian, why don't you go back first? I'll keep an eye on things here for you. You're pregnant, and you'll get tired easily if you don't get enough rest."
Wang Qianqian glanced at Song Yilin, then left, looking back several times.
No sooner had Wang Qianqian left than Xu Qingmin's phone rang.
She answered but didn't know what to say.
Should I break up with him over the phone?
The thought of breaking up with Xu Qingmin caused Song Yilin unbearable pain.
Mu Yunzi, she calculated it so well. So many things happened that night, and Xu Qingmin in the sky knew nothing about it.
Song Yilin let the phone keep ringing.
They called again shortly after.
Song Yilin suppressed her emotions.
"Hey, have you landed yet?"
After a flight of more than five hours, Xu Qingmin's voice sounded a little tired: "I just landed and I saw a lot of missed calls from you. What's wrong?"
Song Yilin's lips trembled, and she covered her mouth.
After a moment, he said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to remind you to be careful."
"I'm heading to the factory now. The factory manager just called me and said the entire factory has been burned down. So far, only three people have been found injured and have been taken to the hospital. There are no casualties."
"Well, this is already a stroke of good luck amidst misfortune."
Xu Qingmin immediately sensed something was wrong and asked, "What's wrong? You don't seem to be acting right."
"I'm fine, I'm just a little tired. You go ahead and get back to work, let me know when you're leaving."
Before Xu Qingmin could say anything more, Song Yilin squatted down on the ground.
I couldn't stop myself from crying.
Xiao Zhang went up and hugged him.
President Qi and Gu Sinan stood quietly to the side.
They all knew that a lot must have happened to Song Yilin during this time, but now was not the time to ask her.
The police arrived at that moment.
At this moment, the doctor who had seen Bai Guanqun came out.
"Who are Bai Guanqun's family members?"
Song Yilin forced herself to stand up: "I am her mother."
At this moment, the police also came over and listened to the doctor's report on the patient's condition.
"The child doesn't have any fatal injuries, but she probably took sleeping pills or some kind of drug. Right now, we can only wait for the effects of the drug to wear off and for her to wake up."
The police consulted with the doctor and Song Yilin: "Could we have our forensic doctor go in and conduct an injury assessment?"
In addition to examining external injuries, the injury assessment also includes checking whether Bai Guanqun was sexually assaulted.
Her daughter is only 13 years old, and the thought of that possibility makes Song Yilin's heart ache beyond measure.
Song Yilin nodded, and the doctor said, "Okay, you can go after we move her to a regular ward."
After reporting on Bai Guanqun, the doctor called out again, "May I ask who is Xu Yijing's family member?"
Song Yilin sighed: "Doctor, please tell me."
"He doesn't have any external injuries, but he took some sleeping pills and hasn't woken up yet. He should wake up first thing tomorrow morning."
Song Yilin said calmly, "I understand. Tell them all to go to the VIP ward. Xiao Zhang, could you watch my daughter for me? I need to stay in the emergency room."
Song Yilin and Secretary Zheng were in the emergency room, and Gu Sinan was also there.
Mr. Qi, the general manager of the store, went to Xu Yijing's hospital room.
Gu Sinan looked at Secretary Zheng and asked Song Yilin, "Is Chen Yan in the emergency room?"
Song Yilin nodded, a bitter taste in her mouth: "Yes, he saved my daughter's life."
Gu Sinan could tell from Song Yilin's expression that things had become complicated.
"So, you're planning to leave Xu Qingmin again?"
Song Yilin looked up at Gu Sinan. Under the light of the corridor lamp, Gu Sinan's head looked a bit like the judge who was judging her.
"If you want to stand up for Xu Qingmin, then come at me."
Gu Sinan avoided Song Yilin's sorrowful gaze: "No, I just hope that this time, Xu Qingmin will know the truth and that I won't keep it from him."
I'll try my best.
Even if she didn't say it, Xu Qingmin could have guessed it when she brought up breaking up with him after he came back.
You can find it even without guessing.
Gu Sinan looked at Zheng Li with a complicated expression. He seemed unable to say anything. In the adult world, one is often powerless to control one's own destiny.
Regardless of whether Chen Yan was taking advantage of the situation, even if he was, Song Yilin had already put herself at the negotiating table. Since the exchange of benefits had been agreed upon, she was determined to see it through to the end.
He admired Song Yilin; she was willing to go all out in anything she did.
They are also willing to sacrifice themselves.
Furthermore, Chen Yan's fate is now uncertain because of this deal.
He doesn't blame Song Yilin. If Wang Qianqian were ever in the same predicament, he could forgive her too.
But Xu Qingmin didn't know that.
Xu Qingmin has already been hurt badly once.
We can only hope that Xu Qingmin can pull through this time.
Gu Sinan took out his phone to call Xu Qingmin.
I just brought up the phone number, and then I hung up.
Some things are better left for Song Yilin to say to Xu Qingmin herself.
If necessary, he would say a few more words in support of Song Yilin.
