Mrs. Shang nodded, "Don't make a fuss, you're carrying a baby."
This coldness from Shang's mother made Shang Wan feel uncomfortable, and she couldn't help but ask, "Where are my brothers?"
"They're all busy, you get some rest, I'll have someone bring you food."
Seeing that her daughter was alright, Mrs. Shang got up and left without hesitation.
Shang Wan felt a pang of panic. If these people didn't pamper her, would her hunger strike still garner attention? And how could she get the merchants to compromise?
She didn't even have a cell phone on her, and there were guards outside, so she had no idea what was going on. What should she do?
Shang Wan touched her belly with self-pity, silently shedding tears, "Baby, your maternal grandparents and uncles are all heartless people."

Mingyue was very dissatisfied with the slow progress of the acquisition plan and decided to give it a push: "Find some people to force the merchants to form a marriage alliance with the Jiang family."
Secretary Lin nodded and found a few paparazzi, who provided information about which hospital Shang Wan was recuperating in, and also offered some evidence of the marriage alliance between the Jiang and Shang families.
Regardless of which paparazzi got the news, they immediately published it, afraid that if they were a step too slow, someone else would get there first. Moreover, the Jiang family and the Shang family were no longer the same as before, so these paparazzi published articles without any scruples.
Shang Gan was severely reprimanded by the board of directors, and he wished he could throw his lovestruck, clueless younger sister from the hospital to take the fall for his anger.
This is exactly what you described: the merchants are cold-blooded, ruthless, and heartless!
But he couldn't. The online incident escalated like wildfire, and Shang Wan's account was bombarded with insults. Was he really going to arrange a marriage alliance with the Jiang family?
The Jiang family's situation was not worth the Shang family's gamble, because anyone with eyes could see that it was a losing proposition.
But if he doesn't form a marriage alliance with the Jiang family now, the Shang family will be labeled as villains. When they do business with others, people might say, "You're the kind of group that runs away as soon as something goes wrong. I won't do business with you."
Caught between a rock and a hard place, Shang Gan felt like a caged beast, his eyes lifeless, struggling in agony. "I need to go to the hospital."
Because of the reporters' constant intrusion, the hospital increased its security detail, and the bodyguards automatically made way for Shang Gan.
Shang Gan carried the thermos and asked everyone else to leave, leaving only Shang Wan and Shang Gan in the ward.
Shang Wan watched warily as her older brother dragged a table over and placed it in front of her, opening the lunchboxes one by one and laying them out before her, not understanding what he was going to do.
Shang Gan sat down and stared intently at Shang Wan, noticing the deep wariness in her eyes.
Shang Gan gave a sarcastic laugh. The gentle and doting look in his eyes that had once been directed at Shang Wan was now filled with the calculations of a businessman. His thin, cool lips parted slightly, "You can marry Jiang Shengyan."
A bright light shone in Shang Wan's eyes as she asked excitedly, "Really?"
"Really." You can't tame a traitor. Shang Gan said calmly, "But not as the daughter of the Shang family. I will announce to the public that you are an adopted daughter, thanks to the Shang family's upbringing. You can leave if you want. The Shang family will not take care of you anymore, and neither will the Shang family."
This is the only solution he can think of right now. Since he's not on the same page with the merchant, he might as well cut the deal and deal with the rest later.
Shang Wan's joyful expression faded, her lips losing all color. "Shang Shang is going to give up on me?"
"right."
"Why? I was originally betrothed to Jiang Shengyan. Just because I'm going to marry him, the business owners are going to abandon me because of this small request?"
Shang Wan was emotional and couldn't understand what she had done to deserve this treatment.
