“Fu Xingzhou? He actually dared to…” Li Yulin frowned in disbelief, his eyes filled with suspicion.
Chen Ke pressed his advantage, his tone becoming even more agitated, "He spared no effort to restore your sister's memory, completely disregarding her life or death!"
Li Chenglin interrupted Chen Ke, his tone icy, "Enough."
He turned to look at Li Yulin, his eyes firm, "I have carefully analyzed Su Su's situation."
“Conservative treatment will only make her health worse; surgery is the best solution.”
Li Chenglin's tone left no room for argument: "Susu is my sister, and I must acknowledge her as my sister."
He gave Chen Ke a cold glance and said, "Don't interfere in the Li family's affairs anymore."
After saying that, Li Chenglin turned and left with Li Yulin, leaving Chen Ke standing there alone.
Chen Ke's face darkened; he hadn't expected his attempts to sow discord to backfire.
He clenched his fist, his nails digging deep into his palm.
“If the family recognizes each other, Fu Xingzhou will definitely take this opportunity to reconcile with Su Su.”
"By then, I won't be able to keep Susu anymore..."
Chen Ke was restless and anxious, like an ant on a hot pan.
He paced back and forth, racking his brains for a solution.
Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.
"A self-inflicted injury ruse..."
A sinister smile curled at the corner of Chen Ke's lips. He immediately took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Call Arno immediately and tell him I've been in a car accident and am being treated."
He paused, his tone becoming even more sinister, "Remember, you must imply to Arno that it was Fu Xingzhou who did it."
Chen Ke hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and tried to stay calm.
Chen Ke pressed down on the accelerator.
"Rather than sit and wait to die, it's better to fight to the death!"
The black sedan shot straight toward the roadside guardrail like an arrow.
A loud bang.
The car shook violently, and the airbags deployed instantly.
Chen Ke's forehead slammed heavily against the steering wheel, and blood flowed down his brow bone, blurring his vision.
At the same time, Li Susu received a call from Chen Ke's assistant.
"Mr. Chen, something terrible has happened! Mr. Chen has been in a car accident! He's currently undergoing emergency treatment, and the doctors say his condition is very critical..."
The assistant's voice was choked with sobs as she spoke haltingly.
He deliberately concealed the truth about the car accident, implying that it was Fu Xingzhou who was responsible.
"What? A car accident?" Li Susu's heart sank.
"Which hospital?" Li Susu asked anxiously.
"City Central Hospital..."
Without thinking twice, Li Susu grabbed her coat and rushed out of the office.
She rushed to the hospital, urging the driver to go faster the whole way.
Meanwhile, Li Chenglin and Li Yulin were also preparing to visit Li Susu.
They were unaware that Chen Ke had been in a car accident.
The two cars passed each other without realizing it.
Li Susu rushed to the city's central hospital.
She grabbed the nurse's arm, her voice trembling, "Excuse me, where is the patient who was brought in from the car accident?"
The nurse was startled and quickly pointed to the intensive care unit at the end of the corridor, "They're...they're being resuscitated inside..."
Li Susu stumbled over, but was stopped by her assistant who was guarding the door.
"Mr. Li, you can't go in!"
"How is Chen Ke?" Li Susu grabbed her assistant's collar, her voice anxious, her eyes filled with worry and panic.
The assistant's eyes darted around, and he stammered, "Mr. Chen is still in critical condition, and the doctor said his situation isn't very optimistic..."
Li Susu pushed him away forcefully, trying to rush in, but was firmly stopped by her assistant.
"Mr. Li, you can't help by going in now. You should calm down first," the assistant said, subtly wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"Calm down? How can I calm down! Tell me, what exactly happened? How could there be a car accident?" Li Susu suppressed her unease and questioned sharply.
The assistant's eyes darted around, and he stammered, "It...it looks like someone did it on purpose..."
"Intentionally? What do you mean? Explain yourself!" Li Susu's heart sank.
The assistant lowered his voice, feigning mystery, "The location of the incident is very remote, with no surveillance cameras... It looks like it was premeditated..."
Li Susu gasped, her face turning deathly pale. "No surveillance footage? How is that possible?"
“Yes, it’s so strange…” the assistant chimed in, secretly observing Li Susu’s reaction.
"Does Chen Ke have any enemies or mortal adversaries in China?" Li Susu tried to calm herself down and analyze the situation.
The assistant shook his head. "President Chen is always kind and never makes enemies. Besides, the Chen family is very powerful. Who would dare to touch him..."
He paused deliberately, then, as if suddenly remembering something, slapped his thigh, "Unless..."
"Unless what?" Li Susu asked anxiously.
“Unless it’s… Fu Xingzhou!” the assistant said through gritted teeth, enunciating each word clearly.
“Fu Xingzhou?” Li Susu was stunned. She instinctively retorted, “Impossible! Why would he do that?”
The assistant embellished the story.
"President Li, think about it. Fu Xingzhou and President Chen have had conflicts more than once before, and their relationship is terrible. Here, besides him, who else has such power to do such a thing without leaving a trace?"
Li Susu's mind was in turmoil, her thoughts a jumble of emotions.
“But… this is just your guess, there’s no evidence…” Li Susu’s voice trembled slightly.
The assistant emphasized, "President Li, President Chen wouldn't risk his life like that, would he? Think about it, if it wasn't Fu Xingzhou, who else would..."
Li Susu fell silent, lost in deep thought. Her assistant's words were like sharp thorns, piercing her heart and causing her waves of pain.
