Chapter 699 - 686
Chapter 699 - 686
"Wanwan!"
Le Zhengpeng implored, "Your husband has been gone for five years. We shouldn’t dwell on past matters... have pity on my son, would you?"
"Uncle Le Zheng..." Yu Sangwan furrowed her brows, her words difficult to articulate.
Seeing this, Le Zhengpeng held her arm and started to kneel, "Girl, I’m old now, I’m begging you! I’m kneeling before you!"
"No!" Yu Sangwan gasped and hurriedly used all her strength to hold him up, "Uncle, don’t do this, I cannot bear it!"
Le Zhengpeng shook his head, "If you grant my foolish son his wish, I’ll treat you like an Empress in the future! I promise, no more cold looks!"
"Uncle..." Yu Sangwan choked with emotion, how did things evolve to this?
Luckily, Fu Xianlin arrived just in time, surprised, "What’s this..."
Guessing the situation, Fu Xianlin quickly said, "Mr. Le Zheng, your son has woken up... the doctor says one person can go in to visit."
Le Zhengpeng straightened up hastily, nudging Yu Sangwan, "Child, you go!"
"No..." Yu Sangwan shook her head in guilt, "Perhaps you should go? No one is more anxious about Asheng than you!"
"But..." Le Zhengpeng smiled, "Asheng most wishes to see you."
"..." Yu Sangwan was speechless, feeling very uncomfortable.
Fu Xianlin sighed too, "Taotao, don’t refuse, go in!"
Yu Sangwan nodded slightly, "Okay."
...
In the isolation ward, Yu Sangwan changed into protective clothing, wearing a mask and cap. She walked up to the bed and looked at Le Zhengsheng wearing a breathing mask, his face pale as paper... Remembering his blood disease, Yu Sangwan couldn’t hold back her tears.
Seeing her, Le Zhengsheng was surprised at first, then slowly smiled.
He could not speak easily now, merely raised his hand towards her.
"Asheng." Yu Sangwan approached, gently holding his hand, "Feeling better?"
Le Zhengsheng nodded, speaking with difficulty through the oxygen mask, "Don’t worry, I won’t die..."
"Nonsense!" Yu Sangwan scolded, "Don’t talk nonsense! If you keep saying such things, I’ll be mad!"
Scolded by her, Le Zhengsheng obediently fell silent, wearing a repentant expression.
Yu Sangwan felt even more grieved, tightened her hold, "Asheng, cooperate well with the doctors. There’s still such a long life ahead; there’s so much you haven’t done."
"..." Le Zhengsheng didn’t understand but nodded obediently, "Mm."
Yu Sangwan was profoundly sorrowful, silently thinking, Asheng... you must be well! In recent days, Yu Sangwan had been at the hospital taking care of Le Zhengsheng, whose condition stabilized and was transferred to a general ward.
On her day off, Yu Sangwan brought Xiaomantou to visit him.
"Asheng!" Xiaomantou squeezed his chubby body through the door gap and jumped onto the bed.
Le Zhengsheng hurriedly reached out to catch the little guy, as he was still quite weak and had to wear a mask to avoid infection.
Xiaomantou couldn’t see his face, pouting with a bun-like face complaining, "Asheng, what’s wrong? Why cover your face?"
"Xiaomantou." Yu Sangwan quickly pulled her son over, patiently explaining, "Asheng is sick; it’s different from usual... The face cover is to protect Asheng, understand? Xiaomantou, be good and accompany Asheng quietly, don’t disturb him."
"Oh." Xiaomantou nodded earnestly, becoming much more obedient, "Asheng, if you’re feeling unwell, Xiaomantou will surely behave."
"Good boy."
Le Zhengsheng ruffled the little guy’s head and nodded towards Yu Sangwan.
Yu Sangwan opened the thermos, "I’ve made some soup, have a little."
"Okay..."
...
Observing the tides.
Ou Guanshen set down the documents, hesitating as he looked at Helian Si.
Helian Si didn’t look at him, directly ordering, "Speak!"
"Yes." Ou Guanshen stiffened, "President, what about Yu Sangwan’s resignation... how should we handle it?"
This matter, Helian Si hadn’t given any instructions on it, he couldn’t not ask! The position of the President’s Cabinet spokesperson can’t remain vacant... currently it’s Ou Guanshen who is acting but his own workload is already too heavy, he can barely manage.
If Yu Sangwan really doesn’t want the job, it’d be better to approve the resignation so we can recruit someone new!
Helian Si grasped his pen, forcefully capping it.
"What has she been doing recently?"
"This..." Ou Guanshen paused, "I am not very sure."
"Useless!" Helian Si jabbed a scornful glance at him.
Ou Guanshen felt wronged, he was exceedingly busy himself, truly had no time to find out!
"..." Helian Si sighed indignantly, "Call her back to work!"
Her resignation wasn’t even approved, and she dares not come? Where is her professional ethic?
"..." Ou Guanshen straightened his back, "Yes, I’ll do it right away."
Leaving the inner room, Ou Guanshen quickly went to call Yu Sangwan.
Receiving the call, Yu Sangwan was quite surprised too, "What? You want me to come back to work?"
"Exactly!" Ou Guanshen, having been scolded earlier, was quite gruff too, "Reporter Yu, let me tell you... your resignation wasn’t approved, how could you possibly not come?"
"I..." Yu Sangwan stumbled, she hadn’t expected this.
Because her father intervened in the matter, and Helian Si had been so quiet for so long... she thought he had already approved it.
Since it wasn’t approved, Yu Sangwan nodded and agreed, "I understand, I’ll return to cancel my leave tomorrow."
After hanging up, Ou Guanshen, uneasy about potential ’tricks’ from Helian Si, yet again ordered people to investigate Yu Sangwan’s whereabouts in the past days.
Sure enough, just upon returning, Helian Si asked again, "Did you find out? What has she been busy with these days?"
Ou Guanshen’s expression looked constipated, hesitating, "Yes, I did investigate..."
However, the result might not be what the President wanted!
"Uh." Helian Si contemplated, suddenly shouting, "Speak up! Do you really want to clean the toilets?"
"No." Ou Guanshen resolved, with a decisive expression, "Fu Xianlin’s student Le Zhengsheng fell ill, hospitalized these days... it has been Reporter Yu taking care of him."
Helian Si paused, in front of Ou Guanshen, he couldn’t hide his awkward expression.
It’s true, that day she was late, she indeed said it was because something happened to Le Zhengsheng! So all these days, she’s been preoccupied with Le Zhengsheng’s matters?
Helian Si didn’t want to admit it but he couldn’t deny feeling very jealous. Thin lips tightly pressed together, "What is actually wrong with Le Zhengsheng?"
"Just a minor injury... nothing serious." Ou Guanshen checked Le Zhengsheng’s hospital diagnosis; a bit of external wound, really not severely ill.
A minor injury... yet it let Yu Sangwan stay at the hospital for so many days? Helian Si rubbed his brow, seems he underestimated Le Zhengsheng’s place in her heart! "Humph." Helian Si sneered, thinking himself indeed pitiful.
Not only is there a deceased nephew blocking him, but in reality, there’s also an unwavering confidant who’s been by her side for years!
Ou Guanshen cautiously observed Helian Si, not daring to breathe a word.
Only to see Helian Si open his schedule, his face calm, skimming over it, his long fingers gently tapping.
Finally, he said, "Guanshen, go arrange something..."
"Yes."
