Chapter 1466 Crisis 6
Xi Xiaye responded by throwing a pillow at him. “I told you not to bad-mouth me in front of our sons. It makes me lose my dignity!”
Mu Yuchen quickly caught the pillow. “They’re not here right now, are they? Can’t you just satisfy a man’s pride and vanity?”
His eyebrows were slightly furrowed when he said that. The way he was looking at her looked a lot like the face Mu Xiaocheng pulled when he could not get his toy. It was no wonder they were father and son.
She raised her eyebrows and stared at him for a while before she turned her head and coughed sarcastically. “I’ve never seen you care about male pride and dominance. Is it because I’ve become more charming lately and you’re starting to feel a sense of crisis? Hey, where are you going? I’m not done yet!”
Before she could finish speaking, Mu Yuchen had already left to go to the kitchen...
He seemed to be quite relaxed today. The husband and wife were enjoying their afternoon tea leisurely after lunch. Xi Xiaye was just about to go to the office when Mu Yuchen had already grabbed the car keys after noticing that.
“Are you going to send me there?” She was holding her handbag while looking at the man who had already walked out the door with the car key.
“I’ll send you there, then stop by Su Chen’s place to hang out for a bit.” Mu Yuchen’s figure then disappeared out of the doorway.
Xi Xiaye shrugged as she watched the figure of the man disappear. It took a while before she finally followed behind him.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the afternoon, and in Qi Qiming’s ward at City Z Hospital, the attending doctor, Liang Jing, had just performed a checkup on Qi Qiming. Her frown eased slightly as she handed the medical records to the nurse beside her while she removed her mask.
“How is he doing?” Qi Lei said hoarsely as he looked at Liang Jing with his bloodshot eyes.
He had not gotten any sleep at all, and he had been busy with the company’s opening ceremony since a few days ago, so his body was weak. He felt a little groggy and extremely exhausted.
Qi Lei had asked Yang Sheng to go back and get some rest in the morning. Other than a few bodyguards that Wang Chun had arranged, Qi Lei was the only person left at the hospital. Wang Chun had returned to the Qi Kai Group, and the news about Qi Qiming’s accident had been made known to the Qi Kai Group internally. Nobody knew what would happen. Qi Feng was also trying his best to keep everything under control.
Certainly, after such a tragic accident, some reporters would not let the opportunity to get first-hand information slip away, so there were a few reporters in disguise at the hospital. Fortunately, Qi Lei had made prior arrangements, or else, it would probably be chaos.
“His condition seems to be slightly stabler now, and I hope that whatever happened last night won’t happen again. He’s still in critical condition, so we will need to monitor him carefully. However, you also need to be mentally prepared because he was severely injured. Even if he’s lucky enough to make it through, I’m afraid that it will also be very challenging down the road since it will take a long time to recover, and he may have limited mobility in his left hand,” Liang Jing reminded him in a serious tone.
Qi Lei took a deep breath as he listened and he looked at Qi Qiming on the hospital bed. “I understand. Thank you for all your hard work. Please try to save him no matter what...”
“You can rest assured that this is our priority, and I will do my best. You haven’t gotten any sleep at all. It’s best to take a rest. Otherwise, you might fall first before he even gets through the critical stage. His condition is fairly stable now, and there are critical care unit nurses watching over him. They’ll notify me in time if anything happens. Don’t worry about it and just take a good rest.” Liang Jing was kind to him since Qi Lei was also a good friend of Mu Yuchen and Zhou Zimo’s.
Qi Lei glanced at her gratefully and nodded. “I know. Thank you. Thank you so much. I’ll stay a little longer.” He sat on the sofa opposite after saying that.
Liang Jing looked at him with a deep gaze, and she could not help but sigh. She had seen many cases like this, but it was certainly not easy for Qi Lei to go to this extent, especially during the emergency procedure last night...
“We’ll do our best and leave the rest. You don’t have to feel too depressed. His condition isn’t that bad,” Liang Jing comforted. She rarely comforted the family members of patients that way because at times like these, destiny could not be avoided, and comforting would not do anything. However, after seeing Qi Lei, she still could not help but comfort him.
She seemed to have heard of Qi Lei from her son, Zhou Zimo. She knew that he also had a pretty tough life. Therefore, she admired Qi Lei compared to her son who had given her quite a bit of trouble.
“I know. Thank you,” Qi Lei generally did not like to say “thank you” very much, but he realized that he had been saying it quite a lot recently. He would hardly say those two words before this.
Liang Jing smiled and nodded before leaving the ward.
Not long after she left, the critical care unit nurse also came in to check on the patient. Qi Lei finally left the ward.
When Yang Sheng visited with some afternoon tea, Qi Lei was sitting on a bench at the corner of the corridor and smoking a cigarette. There was faint smoke in the air and his figure seemed a little lonely.
“Master Qi, you haven’t eaten much in the afternoon. Here’s some porridge and your favourite flower tea,” Yang Sheng said as he stood beside him with food in his hand.
His voice interrupted Qi Lei’s thoughts. He raised his gaze and glanced at Yang Sheng as he flicked the ashes off the cigarette in between his fingers. He frowned and took another puff before he left half of the cigarette in the tray beside him.
Yang Sheng’s gaze followed Qi Lei’s motion and saw that the tray was already filled with cigarette butts.
“How’s the company doing?” Qi Lei asked with his husky voice as he reached out to Yang Sheng.
Yang Sheng quickly put the food container on the glass table next to him and swiftly poured the porridge out for him. “Don’t worry, Master Qi. It was managed in time, so everything is pretty much under control. It’s also thanks to the vice presidents and Master Mu that our Tai Yu Corporation is doing so much better compared to the chaos in the Qi Kai Group.”
Qi Lei silently took the steaming porridge that Yang Sheng handed over and tested the temperature before slowly eating it.
Yang Sheng felt relieved as he watched his boss eat. He continued, “You don’t have to worry about the company, Master Qi. President Qi’s condition is what we should be worried about right now. I heard from the employees of the Qi Kai Group that the shareholders are worried after hearing about President Qi’s condition, and it seems like they might want to bring the date of the shareholders meeting forward.”
