Mother Chen started crying again, "Please, please, someone go in and talk to Shuhe for me. Qingwen isn't cooperating with the treatment. The doctor said that if he continues like this, even if a miracle worker were alive, he couldn't be saved!"
"I'd do anything for the Li family, as long as Shuhe would even glance at Qingwen. He has to live! He's so pitiful, he can't live without Shuhe!"
As she spoke, Mother Shen kowtowed repeatedly to the crowd. In a short while, her forehead was covered in dirt and swollen.
Shen Ergou watched from the side, his eyes changing.
He clenched his fists, but in the end he did nothing. He just gritted his teeth and said, "Please, everyone, my sister-in-law was just angry for a moment. She was angry that my brother and she argued with him. She has a very soft heart. She will definitely go to see my brother when she finds out, and she will definitely thank everyone."
The Shen family never imagined that their past domineering attitude towards Li Shuhe would now bring them retribution.
Mother Chen kept kowtowing, crying so hard she was almost sobbing.
She felt extremely regretful. Marrying a daughter-in-law from a family like Li Shuhe would have given her son a bright future, but now things have turned out like this.
Xu Ruantang parked the car on the side of the road and looked at Li Shuhe, who was still sitting in the passenger seat with her hands tightly clasped together.
Her eyes were too complicated.
I feel sorry for Shen Qingwen.
There was anger, probably because of the sacrifices they had made, only to be taken advantage of by the Li family. Now that they ignored them, the Li family was eager to please them.
She didn't understand why people couldn't treat each other sincerely, and why some people had to go out of their way to get slapped.
Li Shuhe opened the car door and stepped out with a determined expression.
Xu Ruantang quickly followed.
She gave Li Shuhe this idea because she hoped that Shen Qingwen and Li Shuhe could live a good life together in the future.
Having come this far, she didn't want to fail at the last minute.
Li Shuhe's condition is very unstable right now. If she collapses, Xu Ruantang will step in to save the day.
Outside the crowd, some sharp-eyed people immediately spotted Li Shuhe getting out of the car.
"The Li family girl has arrived!"
The latest gossip in the compound is whether the Li family's daughter will be unable to withstand the Shen family's commotion and eventually give in.
Some people even openly made bets.
This shout caused the crowd that had been surrounding Shen's mother and Shen Ergou to instantly scatter and make way.
Li Shuhe stopped a short distance away and looked coldly at Chen's mother.
As for Shen Ergou, she didn't even glance at him.
When Shen's mother heard someone calling, she saw a figure through her teary eyes, stood up and rushed over, hugging Li Shuhe's leg tightly and refusing to let go.
"Shuhe, I'm begging you! Please go see Qingwen! I'll grant you anything you want. I can go back to my hometown. I promise I'll never appear in front of you again."
The mother wept bitterly, her heart breaking.
Upon seeing Li Shuhe, Shen Ergou slowly stood up from the ground and walked towards her step by step.
Xu Ruantang felt that his gaze was unfriendly, so she quickly walked to Li Shuhe's side and looked at him warily.
Shen Ergou originally refused to come here and embarrass himself, thinking that his older brother had gone mad.
He had such a good job in Beijing, but he just refused to go and now lives in the hospital, barely alive.
Shen Ergou thought to himself that if Shen Qingwen really died, he would come back to the compound.
He'll come over every day and make a scene, claiming that the Li family forced his older brother to his death, and he'll extort a huge sum of money from them!
Even without that spineless older brother, he can still do business and make money!
Unfortunately, this idea was completely shattered yesterday.
Yesterday, an unexpected guest came to the hospital—my brother's boss.
In front of his entire family, Shen Qingwen asked his superiors to witness the drafting of his will.
The suicide note clearly stated that if Shen Qingwen was really gone, it was because he couldn't think straight and committed suicide by drinking pesticide, and it had nothing to do with anyone else.
The suicide note also stated that all of Shen Qingwen's savings should be donated to the country.
After he left, the unit's housing was reclaimed and given to those in need.
Shen Qingwen drafted the document, signed it, affixed his personal seal, and handed it over to his superior for safekeeping.
No matter how much Shen's mother cried and made a fuss, Shen Qingwen remained unusually persistent.
After Shen Qingwen's superior left, Shen's father couldn't hold back any longer and started pointing his finger at Shen Qingwen and cursing.
They said they raised him all these years, only to have him, an old man with white hair, bury his black-haired son. How unfilial!
Shen Qingwen could barely stand, yet he still got out of bed and kowtowed to his father.
He didn't even blink as he bumped his head on the hospital's cement floor, continuing even as his forehead bled.
He kept repeating the same sentence: "I can never repay your kindness in raising me. The only way I can repay you is with my life!"
They were so determined that they wouldn't stop even if they kowtowed until they fainted.
It wasn't until that moment that Shen Ergou truly began to panic.
The eldest brother wrote a will, which effectively cut off his own escape route.
Once his elder brother is really gone, even if he makes a scene in the compound and produces his will, it will all be nonsense.
Moreover, once Shen Qingwen is dead, Li Shuhe will definitely not let it go. They will lose their leverage over Li Shuhe and will certainly face severe retaliation.
Shen Ergou was well aware of the power and influence of the Li family.
He usually just pretended not to understand, so as not to show his ignorance in front of Li Shuhe.
It was he who took the initiative to seek out Li Shuhe.
Before leaving the hospital, Shen Ergou said to Shen Qingwen, "Big brother, take good care of yourself. Even if I have to beg on my knees, I will definitely help you find your sister-in-law! We must live well!"
Ironically, this is the first time in days that Shen Ergou has said something like this.
At this moment, Shen Ergou walked step by step to Li Shuhe and knelt down with a thud.
