Chapter 26 I have nothing to ask for except to break off the engagement
Su Mingyue was about to take action, but Ke Liman stepped forward to block Su Guhuai. Before the slap could land, the door of the operating room opened, shifting everyone's attention.
Su Guhuai was beaten many times at home when he was a child, but this was the first time someone took the initiative to stand in front of him.
His heart was filled with warmth, but he didn't have time to think too much at this moment, so he went up to ask the doctor about the old man's condition.
"Mr. Su, the results of the physical examination will not be available until this afternoon. Let's send Mr. Su back to the ward first."
Su Guoyi's eyes were dark when he saw the doctor respectfully addressing his son as "General Su" but ignoring him.
This eldest son is really promising. After just a few years abroad, he was able to immediately seize power in the country when he came back. Then he began to resent Grandpa Su for being too partial.
Little did he know that because he was too lazy, the Su family's finances had long been worse than in previous years. Old Master Su couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to return home to save the situation.
"Don't worry, bro. The old man will be fine."
Ke Liman held Su Guhuai's hand soothingly, and this scene happened to be seen by Shen Baiying.
"Pay attention to your image. It's fine if you're not married and move into your husband's house, but don't you know that there should be no physical contact between men and women?"
Su Mingyue didn't give Ke Liman a good look, "You vixen."
Ke Liman saw Su Guhuai's expression darken, so she held his hand tightly and said, "Ignore her, let's go see Old Master Su."
"Bai Ying, don't blame me for not reminding you. You'd better keep an eye on your daughter-in-law."
Su Mingyue always looked like she was in charge of something. Just as she was about to follow Su Guhuai in, Ke Liman simply closed the door of the ward, and Su Mingyue was immediately turned away.
"You two are going to die! Who the hell are you? How dare you stop me!"
When Su Mingyue went to turn the handle again, she found that the door was locked.
"You two are here."
Old Man Su was sitting on the bed reading a newspaper. At 60 years old, his eyes were still bright and he didn't look sick at all. Ke Liman thought that this medicine was really effective. He would only have an attack occasionally but would recover quickly.
"Grandpa, if you feel unwell, just take a rest. The company will teach me."
"What? You think I'm going to die? I tell you, when you're too sick to walk, maybe I, an old man, will be able to walk as fast as the wind!"
Old Master Su waved his hand in disdain, lowered his gaze, saw the two holding hands, smiled knowingly and said, "Why is little girl Ke here too?"
When Ke Liman realized what was happening, she saw that their hands were still holding each other. Her face turned red instantly and she quickly shook off Su Guhuai's hand.
"Little girl Ke, although Grandpa appreciates your painting ability, you must remember your identity. You are the fiancée of the second young master of the Su family. This matter has already spread throughout the entire Y city."
"Grandpa, I know. I came here this time just to ask you for something."
"Oh? But you can tell me."
Ke Liman said with a serious expression: "I would like to ask you to help me cancel my engagement with the Su family. I don't want to marry Su Zhe'an."
Old Master Su glanced at Su Gu Huai, and seeing that he had a blank expression and showed no reaction at all, he pondered for a while.
"No profit, no business. Why do you think I will help you?"
"Just because I can save your life."
Su Guhuai frowned, "Xiao Man."
Ke Liman gave him a reassuring look, and then Old Man Su burst into laughter.
"Save my life? There are hundreds of bodyguards, thugs, and even secret guards around me. You can't beat even half of them."
"Of course, the old man must be surrounded by top-notch experts."
"Then what can you use to save my life? Little girl, you should think before you speak or act."
"My dear, when the doctor comes to examine you, he will definitely say that you are healthy and the CT scan shows nothing unusual. After hearing this, you will definitely not do any other examinations, given your stubborn personality, right?"
Old Master Su looked at Ke Liman with suspicion, but before he could say anything, the sound of a doctor knocking on the door was heard.
"Mr. Su, are you available now?"
Ke Liman gave him a wait-and-see look, and sure enough, the doctor came in and told him that there was nothing wrong with his body, and that it might just be a sudden emergency that had no effect on his body. He measured his blood pressure as usual.
"Mr. Su is in very good health, and all indicators are normal. He can be discharged from the hospital after a few days of rest."
After the doctor left, Mr. Su was silent for a long time and said, "Do you know what the consequences of lying to me are?"
"I have evidence."
Although Ke Liman's words were decisive, Su Guhuai couldn't help but have doubts, but he still cooperated and locked the door of the ward again.
Su Mingyue saw the doctor go out and was about to come in, but found that the door was locked again. She was so angry that her teeth itched, but she didn't dare to knock on the door, for fear of being blamed for disturbing Old Master Su's rest.
After watching the video on Ke Liman's phone that was obviously shot from a candid angle, Mr. Su's deep and cloudy eyes looked as if a storm was about to roll in.
"You are as stupid as a pig. You actually dared to poison your own father. Do you really think that the Su family can last long without me?"
He had been busy for the Su family's business all his life. Many people had wanted to harm him and he had nearly died several times. He never expected that this time he almost died at the hands of his own child.
A rare flash of sadness flashed across Old Master Su's eyes, but it only lasted for a second. He was used to many ups and downs and knew how to conceal his emotions.
"But the doctor said I was healthy. How did you know I was poisoned?"
"After they left, I stole some of your tea for testing and extracted a new type of poison, maggot-type poison."
"You have been doing business overseas for many years, so you must have heard of this poison before. This is why ordinary tests cannot detect it."
"Okay, that's a good idea! You don't know how to do business, but you use your brain to do this!"
Old Master Su was furious. He slapped the bed hard and sat up: "Ah Huai! Go and call them all in! I'm going to make a will tonight!"
"Don't worry, old man! I have used my connections to find you an antidote! Your poisoning isn't too severe now, you will recover after taking it for seven consecutive days!"
Ke Liman quickly took out the antidote from her bag and handed it to Grandpa Su. Grandpa Su looked at her in shock and said, "It is said that only a few pills of this antidote can be extracted in a year. The ingredients are extremely precious. One is worth a thousand gold. Little girl Ke is really capable!"
Ke Liman: “…”
Is it so precious? Fortunately, I saved Chen Xiaoqing that day, so this is a small way of repaying him!
Mr. Su quickly opened the package, threw one pill into his mouth and swallowed it with water.
Su Guhuai was a little worried, "Grandpa, we should have asked someone to do a test first, just in case..."
"Ha! Is there any poison more serious than the one I have?"
Old Master Su's teeth itched with anger when he thought of that wicked son and daughter. He looked at Ke Liman, and in addition to admiration, there was also a hint of respect in his eyes. "Little girl Ke, you saved me this time, and I can agree to one condition of yours."
"My mind has never changed. I just want to break off the engagement with Su Zhe'an!"
Ke Liman's eyes were very firm. Old Master Su didn't quite understand. "It's not unfair for you to have an engagement with our Su family. You can actually ask for something more important, such as shares. I can give you 20%!"
Even Su Gu Huai was not surprised when these words came out, as the old man valued his savior very much.
20% is not a small stake, it is worth hundreds of billions.
What will she choose?
Su Gu Huai looked at Ke Liman with a complicated expression. He knew very well that this was a test from his grandfather.
"No! I just want to break off the engagement with Su Zhe'an and take back what belongs to me!"
Mr. Su was satisfied in his heart. He liked this kind of character. He would not change his mind because of what others said. He had his own opinions!
"How much money does the Ke family have? It's hard to calculate this way."
"I just want to take back what belongs to me. I don't ask for anything else. Please."
Ke Liman had tears in her eyes and she clenched her fists excitedly. Her goal was finally to be achieved. It seemed as if all the suffering she had endured in her past life had found an outlet at this moment, allowing the emotions that had been pent up in her heart to be released.
"Okay, I promise you, Ah Huai, go and ask them to come in."
Su Zhe'an arrived late, and the white shirt he was wearing was wrinkled as if it had been crumpled into a ball and then casually unfolded. There was an especially glaring red mark on the collar of the shirt, which made people think of what might have happened last night.
