"Shuxin, my grandfather's operation was very successful, thank you very much." The man was wearing a silver-gray suit, his hair was neatly arranged, one hand in his pocket, and the other hand was handing coffee to the person in front of him.
Shu Xin took it with a faint smile and took a sip, "You're welcome."
Qin Huan's narrow eyes flashed with a smile and a faint light. "Have you heard that the Shu Group is about to go bankrupt because of your sister? Do you want my help?"
Hearing this, Shu Xin paused while drinking her coffee, then smiled nonchalantly, "What does it have to do with me?"
After finishing his coffee, he put down the cup in his hand and said, "The old man needs to rest. Call me if there is anything else. I'm leaving now."
Qin Huan watched her leave, and only said, "Okay," when he could no longer see her.
In a VIP ward.
"Ms. Shu, please come this way." The director of internal medicine nodded and bowed, shocking the young doctors and nurses.
The director glared at them secretly, and for fear of being retaliated against, everyone scattered like birds and beasts, pretending not to see anything.
Shu Xin walked into the ward. A middle-aged man on the bed was unconscious with an oxygen tube connected. A thin figure was lying beside the bed. The table next to him was filled with fruit supplements.
The sound of the door opening startled Shu Yue who was dozing off. She subconsciously looked towards the door, and the person who appeared at the door woke her up instantly.
"Shu Xin..."
Shu Xin turned and left. Shu Yue quickly called for a nurse and followed her out, "Shu Xin, wait a minute!"
In the quiet corridor of the hospital, Shu Xin looked at Shu Yue, who seemed to be hesitant to speak, "What's the matter?"
Shu Yue, who hadn't had much rest for a week, looked haggard. "Shu Xin, I know you're very capable. Can you perform surgery on Dad?"
"Dad? Your dad or my dad?" Shu Xin's tone was calm with sarcasm.
Shu Yue said bitterly: "Of course it's our father."
Shu Xin sneered, "Sorry, I don't have a father."
After saying this indifferently, he turned around and walked away. He hadn't taken a few steps when someone grabbed his wrist. Shu Yue said anxiously, "Shu Xin, I'm sorry for you. Please save Dad. I'm willing to do anything for you to save Dad!"
Hearing this, Shuxin turned around and took a good look at her sister whom she hadn't seen for several years. The spoiled, hypocritical and arrogant look in her memory was completely gone, and her face was full of fatigue, guilt and regret.
Shu Xin withdrew her gaze. She had a scheming sister who was used to pretending to be pitiful, so she wouldn't fall for it.
She gave a sarcastic smile and said, "You can do anything? Then come to see me at the top of Xiangshan Mountain at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. I want you to walk up there wearing high heels." After that, she walked away.
Shu Yue was left standing there in shock, her face turning pale at the thought of climbing a mountain in high heels.
The next morning, Shuxin took the cable car to the top of the mountain. The air on the top of the mountain was fresh and cool. Taking a deep breath made her mind clearer.
It's half past eight now, and she can wait until ten past nine at the latest. If she doesn't come up, then forget it.
There is a temple on the top of the mountain. Pious men, women, old and young start climbing the mountain at five or six o'clock, hoping to burn the first incense stick of the day as early as possible. After eight o'clock, more and more people start holding incense.
What surprised Shuxin was that the group burning incense was mostly middle-aged and elderly women. There were no elderly men, very few middle-aged men, and almost no young people.
Shuxin looked at the watch. It was just past nine o'clock. Young people should have gone to work, unless it was Saturday or Sunday.
At the entrance to the mountain, only the woman holding incense appeared. She couldn't tell whether she was disappointed or disdainful. She stopped staring at the entrance and turned to look into the distance.
After admiring it quietly for a while, she was about to take the cable car down with a sarcastic smile on her face, but unexpectedly, she turned around and saw Shu Yue in a white dress and high-heeled sandals.
