Li Junsheng carried the food to the hospital and, after some effort, finally found out which ward the old lady from the He family was staying in.
It was because her son looked too fierce that Li Junsheng asked the nurse, who immediately knew who Li Junsheng was looking for.
Li Junsheng gently knocked on the door of the expensive single room in the hospital!
"Who is it? Please come in."
A weak, aged voice came from inside the ward. Li Junsheng pushed the door open and found Mr. He's mother lying on the hospital bed.
Her hair was gray, and her eyes were somewhat cloudy due to her age.
His body looked even more withered and thin. On his arm, which was receiving injections, there was almost no flesh left, just a layer of skin and bone!
Upon seeing Old Lady He, Li Junsheng suddenly saw himself from his past life.
At that time, he was old and sick. Li Chunya and Li Xiaoyu had died young, and neither of his two sons was willing to take care of him.
Needless to say, Ma Yulian took advantage of her serious illness to have an affair with Chen Dazhu!
At that time, I was lying in the hospital bed, feeling just as weak and helpless, with no one to take care of me.
Fortunately, God gave him a second chance. At least Grandma He has a filial son!
"Who are you?"
Grandma He struggled to open her eyes and see Li Junsheng clearly. She asked him softly who he was and what he was doing here.
"Grandma He, I run a restaurant downstairs from the hospital. Your son asked me to bring you a bowl of soup noodles and some light dishes. Would you like to try them and see if they suit your taste?"
Li Junsheng opened the food box, preparing to personally feed the old woman.
Old Mrs. He refused to get up!
"I can't eat anymore, my illness is too severe."
"What...what illness do you have? What did the doctor say?"
Li Junsheng inquired about Grandma He's condition out of curiosity.
"I have liver cancer, and it's difficult to treat anywhere."
Li Junsheng was silent for a moment. Whether in the decades to come or in the present day when medical technology is inadequate, cancer is a terminal illness!
It seems that Grandma He is currently undergoing conservative treatment; we can only wait and see how many days she has left to live.
Just as Li Junsheng remained silent, Old Lady He suddenly apologized to him.
"Young man, I'm sorry, I apologize on behalf of my son. He has a bad temper. He must have threatened you to bring me food, right?"
Old Mrs. He knew her son's temperament better than anyone else!
Li Junsheng did not accept Grandma He's apology.
"Grandma, you've misunderstood. Your son didn't threaten me. He gave me a lot of money. Your son is so filial and good to you, his mother. I'd like to cook some light meals for you and bring them over."
When the topic of Mr. He's filial piety came up, Mrs. He couldn't help but smile.
“Right? My son is the most filial. His father passed away early, and I raised him alone. I also suffered a lot of bullying. You also blame him for his bad temper. If he hadn’t been like this, he and I would always have been bullied.”
Li Junsheng nodded, surprised that Mr. He's childhood was quite terrible!
No wonder he looks so fierce!
Li Junsheng also made sure to coax Grandma He to eat something.
Just then, Mr. He came to visit his mother. Outside the ward, he saw Li Junsheng coaxing his mother to eat and saying nice things about him to her. Mr. He's opinion of Li Junsheng changed even more!
This person is quite adept at handling situations and knows how to speak.
Seeing that his mother and Li Junsheng were having a pleasant conversation, Boss He didn't go in to disturb them!
Almost an hour later, Li Junsheng left to return to the hotel.
In the corridor, Li Junsheng suddenly heard Boss He's voice from behind!
"Hey! Li Junsheng, wait a minute."
Li Junsheng turned around, stopped, and watched as Boss He caught up.
"Mr. He, is there anything else you'd like to remind me of?"
"Come visit my mother more often when you have time, and I'll give you extra money!"
Without saying anything else, Boss He simply pulled out a handful of money from his underarm bag and stuffed it into Li Junsheng's hand.
Li Junsheng held a handful of money, paused for a moment, and then nodded to Boss He in agreement!
“Okay, Mr. He, then I’ll spend more time chatting with your mother every time I come to deliver food.”
Mr. He waved his hand, "Go ahead, and remember to bring the food on time."
Li Junsheng nodded and left, thinking that Boss He wouldn't make things difficult for him.
Li Junsheng was glad he made the right choice; if he had taken good care of Old Lady He, nothing would have happened!
After packing the money away, Li Junsheng carried the empty food box back to the hotel, ready to tell his children the good news.
As Li Junsheng approached the restaurant, he noticed a crowd gathered in front of his establishment, seemingly watching something exciting!
As Li Junsheng approached, he saw Chen Zhiyuan, along with Chen Dazhu, whose legs were completely crippled and who was sitting on a wheeled plank, spreading rumors about him.
Holding a megaphone in one hand and a kitchen knife in the other, Chen Dazhu said angrily, "Li Junsheng, the owner of Li's Home-Style Restaurant, is a depraved person with a black heart. Don't eat at their restaurant."
“Li Junsheng tricked us into buying his old job at the machinery factory at a high price. My son was laid off less than two months after he got the job, and he even had someone cut off my leg and beat me so badly that my leg was crippled!”
"Li Junsheng is a scoundrel, he deserves to die a horrible death. He ruined me like this, so why does he still run a restaurant and live a prosperous life!"
The onlookers pointed and whispered about Chen Dazhu, unsure whether what he said was true or false.
Inside the restaurant, Li Chunya and the others were somewhat helpless against Chen Dazhu, and fearing that he would affect the restaurant's business, they could only find themselves in a situation of self-justification, arguing with Chen Dazhu from a distance!
Some people didn't want to get involved with Chen Dazhu. After all, as long as the food tastes good, that's all that matters in a restaurant; everything else is the owner's private business.
But as soon as they tried to step into the restaurant, Chen Dazhu would block the entrance and frantically wave his cleaver to drive the guests away.
The customers just wanted to eat, not to be stabbed, and were so frightened that they all ran away and dared not enter the restaurant again.
Seeing this, Li Junsheng couldn't help but sneer. Even with his legs crippled, Chen Dazhu was still restless!
Is this because he found out Chen Zhiyuan was laid off from the machinery factory and was furious?
"How come you weren't driven mad?"
Li Junsheng muttered something under his breath.
If Chen Dazhu were truly furious, he wouldn't bother his own restaurant anymore.
Li Junsheng knew without a doubt that Ma Yulian had told Chen Dazhu about his restaurant when he found out where he was.
At this moment, Ma Yulian stood silently to the side, as if she were an insignificant outsider!
Li Junsheng had no idea what she was planning. He remained calm and went to a nearby shop to borrow a phone to call the police.
After hanging up the phone, Li Junsheng couldn't just stand by and watch Chen Dazhu cause trouble, so he decided to step in and draw some of the fire!
"Chen Dazhu, you're still alive?"
I thought you were dead!
Li Junsheng stepped out from the crowd and looked at Chen Dazhu with a leisurely air.
When Chen Dazhu saw him, his expression instantly turned ferocious!
