CHAPTER 400: CHAPTER 377 NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO ENTER_2
Amidst the media siege, he exhibited the composure and poise befitting his stature as a business magnate. But as soon as he disappeared from their view, reporters frantically pulled out their phones and rapidly released the news on various media platforms.
...
In the hospital ward, Li Zishen’s gaze swept over the familiar corridors and room numbers.
Thankfully, with the help of his younger brother Li Zihan, by the time Li Zishen arrived at the ward, their mother Madam Lai had already left for Nanjiang Villa.
"Why did Uncle avoid Mother?"
Li Zishen had already pondered this question on the way over, mostly attributing it to a disagreement of opinions.
"Brother Shen, the reporters have scattered, each departing in their own vehicles. It’s temporarily impossible to tell if they’re a group. Should we intercept them on the media?" Chen Xin softly asked after ending a call.
"Let them be, don’t bother with it."
"Could it be..."
Chen Xin’s words were cut off as Li Zishen gestured with his hand.
"Stay here... personally oversee, and don’t let anyone get close, not even doctors or nurses, do you understand?" Li Zishen’s tone was cold and stern, and he spoke in a suppressed voice.
Upon hearing this, Chen Xin immediately straightened his body, his eyebrows tightly furrowed, and responded, "Yes, Brother Shen."
Inside the well-equipped VIP ward, Li Zishen saw his uncle, the man who had puzzled him for many years.
As Li Zishen approached the bedside, he sighed upon seeing his uncle’s pale face.
Yuan Feng was his only uncle and the only maternal relative left in this world for his mother, Madam Lai Yuan Min. However, Li Zishen had always been puzzled by why his father had fallen out with Yuan Feng, attacked him with punches and kicks, and even expelled him from Boxin Hospital.
He had even broken two of his ribs!
Because of this, Yuan Feng lost his job, which he had taken great pride in, leaving his sister Yuan Min alone in Jin City.
Although Yuan Min later married Li Zishen’s father, Li Zhenshan, and became the prestigious Madam Lai of Jin City, she never wanted to mention her only brother, resulting in many years passing without Li Zishen and his brother Li Zihan ever meeting their maternal uncle.
And those old stories were not told by his mother, rather they were inadvertently revealed by others or he had found out on his own.
This time, Li Zishen specifically brought his uncle from Blue City to Jin City to uncover the truth.
Unexpectedly, his uncle was almost killed during an assassination attempt by Shen Shiyi, barely surviving after two major surgeries.
"Uncle, I’m Zishen. I’m sorry, for insisting on bringing you here... it caused you much suffering," Li Zishen said softly, full of regret.
Yuan Feng’s eyes sparkled slightly as he slowly replied, "It’s okay, Zishen... you can’t blame yourself."
His tone was very gentle, and his demeanor was exceptionally kind and amiable.
Li Zishen, upon hearing this, relaxed slightly. Although he had rushed here immediately after disembarking from the plane, he had been harboring complex emotions deep inside, not knowing how to face his uncle. Now, he felt no estrangement with his uncle, and his initial worries were gradually dissipating.
"Uncle, I heard from Zihan that you wanted to talk to me about something. Is it convenient now?" Li Zishen asked with concern.
Yuan Feng managed a faint smile and softly replied, "Actually, it’s all old stories... There was an unhappy episode between me and your father. I think... you might have heard about it, know a bit, right?"
Li Zishen frowned, nodding, "Could you tell me... what exactly happened back then?"
"26 years ago, before your mother married your father Li Zhenshan, I was involved in developing a special medication aimed at alleviating cancer patient pain, hoping to mitigate their suffering... you know, many patients can’t sleep because of the pain, it’s truly torturous."
"It’s 8028, right? I heard from Dr. Wu, he always thought... you’re a rare talent."
Hearing this, Yuan Feng’s eyes moistened, and his hand with the IV started trembling.
"Actually, back then, Elder Wu and I just had a disagreement, it wasn’t really like others said... I respected him immensely, admired him like an idol. But for my sister, I had to argue with Boss Wu, and I left the research institute to move here... Boxin Hospital."
"For my mother back then?"
