Mr. Lu's condition got worse and worse. The doctor came in and out of the ward several times, shaking his head helplessly and sighing. When he was pushed out of the operating room for the last time, the sky had gradually turned white.
It's been a day and a night.
The doctor took off the mask and asked the family members to prepare themselves psychologically.
A person who was still in good spirits yesterday, is old and comatose today, lying on a hospital bed, waiting for the coming of death.
Everyone in the ward felt heavy and said nothing.
The sound of equipment and instruments in the room was beeping, the windows of the hospital bed were tightly closed, and the clouds outside the windows were so oppressive that it was hard to see through.
Mr. Lu woke up.
Lu Bo has been sitting by the bed and watching over him, and when he saw someone woke up, he quickly asked: "Mr., are you awake? Is there any discomfort?"
Mr. Lu rolled his cloudy eyes and looked around, as if he was confirming the environment he was in.
"This is... this is..."
With a breathing mask on his face, it was difficult to speak, and he hesitated for a while, but Lubur understood what he meant.
"Hospital, this is a hospital."
Hearing about the hospital, Mr. Lu became anxious, panting repeatedly, his upper body surged up, as if he wanted to sit up.
"Why... why did you come to the hospital? Didn't I say... I can't say it?"
"Old sir," Lu Bo advised him with tears in his eyes, "don't bother yourself! Your body is important!"
After tossing about for a while, old man Lu was already out of breath. He tilted his head and silently looked at the heart rate graph on the ECG monitor beside the bed. Life and death were all on that screen.
He sighed silently, without much fear in the face of life and death, his eyes were calm, and he placed on Lu Beichuan.
"Beichuan..." He stretched out his hand to Beichuan with difficulty.
Lu Beichuan stepped forward, held his hand firmly, and said in a low voice, "Grandpa, I'm here."
Mr. Lu breathed heavily, held Lu Beichuan's hand tremblingly, his eyes were red, "Beichuan, promise...promise grandpa, you want... you must... the company..."
Lu Beichuan understood what he meant, and agreed solemnly, "Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely take care of the Lu family and not insult your reputation."
After hearing Lu Beichuan's assurance, old man Lu's trembling mouth twitched feebly, as if he was about to grin to express his relief.
Regarding his own body, Mr. Lu knew it well, and he could see the clues from the faces of everyone present.
Long-term illness and serious illness, the end is approaching.
He has been successful and brilliant in his life, and his name has been praised by others. He is worthy of himself for being able to achieve such achievements in a short life.
But only, sorry for his wife and son.
Searching for Lu Shaoyan's figure in the crowd in the ward, but he couldn't find it after sweeping over, his eyelids became heavier and his breathing became more and more rapid, "Shaoyan..."
Lu Shaoyan walked out from the corner of the room.
Seeing Lu Shaoyan, Mr. Lu felt relieved, "Everyone except Shaoyan, go out..."
"Old sir!"
Mr. Lu didn't look at Lu Bo, and closed his eyes tiredly.
Lu Beichuan got up, comforted and persuaded Lu Bo, and left the ward with the others in the room.
After a while, only Lu Shaoyan and Mr. Lu were left in the huge ward.
"Come here." Mr. Lu moved his finger at Lu Shaoyan, signaling him to come over, and opened his mouth, wanting to say something to him.
"Yes... yes..." The word 'sorry' was stuck in my throat, and I couldn't say it anyway.
He lost too much money. When he was dying, he just wanted to tell Lu Shaoyan that he was more than ten years late. He wanted to ask for forgiveness. He wanted to hear the answer he wanted to hear from Lu Shaoyan. To leave this world with no regrets.
Lu Shaoyan took advantage of the situation and sat by the hospital bed, looking at the old man standing on the bed.
Just watch.
"Yes... I'm sorry..." The three words were spoken intermittently, but I finally managed to speak out.
Mr. Lu sighed deeply, the anger that had been pent up in his heart for more than ten years seemed to dissipate in an instant.
Lu Shaoyan laughed.
"I'm sorry?" He felt very puzzled, "Dad, did these three words move you?"
It really shouldn't be said in front of an old man who has issued a notice of critical illness, but Lu Shaoyan still continued to joke with a smile: "Is it true that in the world, you can get self-salvation just by saying sorry? No matter what, just say I'm sorry and I can write it off? Dad, don't you think it's too simple?"
Old man Lu looked at him, his throat rolled up and down, but no sound came out of his slightly opened mouth.
"I knew you had cancer a year ago. I know the symptoms of cancer very well. Do you know why I knew?" Lu Shaoyan looked at him with a weird smile on his lips, "Because my mother also has cancer."
Mr. Lu's hand grasped the blanket under him in vain, his cloudy eyes fixed on Lu Shaoyan, and his whole body trembled violently.
"You said that my mother betrayed you. I am not your son but a bastard. You are so conceited. You believe in it after seeing the so-called truth. But have you forgotten that you used to love my mother so much and love me so much? Because of the so-called evidence and the so-called paternity test, they regard me as a bastard and call my mother a bitch."
Mr. Lu's face twisted.
"You don't even want to be on the same land with me and my mother, and you want to drive us out of the country, do you know? My mother had your symptoms in the first year abroad. Going to the hospital for an examination is an early stage of liver cancer. There is still treatment, but there is no money, we don't even have the money to live well, we can only wait to die."
"Do you know why I went back to the old house again and again?" Lu Shaoyan laughed, and a distorted pleasure came to his heart, "Because I want to watch you, from the early stage to the middle stage to the late stage of liver cancer, and finally hear it with my own ears. The doctor said you are hopeless and wait to die!"
"You... your mother... she... she..."
"Yes, she is dead, she died a long time ago." Lu Shaoyan said blankly: "She died of illness in the second year abroad, and her cancer deteriorated much faster than yours, because she washed her face with tears every day. , She hates you and misses you every day, and talks about you in my ear every day, like a lunatic."
"Before she died, she told me not to tell you the news about her. She said that death is over, and only the living suffer the most. She doesn't want you to suffer."
The trace of the heartbeat graph on the electrocardiogram monitor became more and more gentle.
On the mask of the respirator, breathing becomes more and more difficult.
"She told me that one day you will find out the truth, and then you will definitely contact me and let me tell you that she hates you and doesn't want to see you again in this life, so as to cover up her death and not let you I know. You see, she is thinking about you until she dies, this kind of woman is ridiculous!"
"Less... less..." Mr. Lu could only say this word in vain, and stretched out his hand with great effort, trying to grab Lu Shaoyan's hand, tears fell from his eyes, and his eyes were full of guilt and pleading.
Lu Shaoyan looked into his eyes and sighed suddenly, "Now I regret it, I should have told you about her earlier, what she said is indeed true, death is dead, only the living are the most painful, instead of making you feel sad every day With a hope of being forgiven, it is better to tell you the news of her death early, so that you will live in guilt for the rest of your life, maybe I will get more, instead of just a little bit of useless real estate! "
Mentioning this, Lu Shaoyan suddenly became irritable, "I am your son! You would rather hand over the company to your grandson and give your remaining shares to your great-grandson than give me a little bit of the company's shares! "
Mr. Lu gasped heavily, closed his eyes, and tears fell from the corners of his eyes.
"Since you don't want to hand over the company to me, then you can go at ease. Your Lu Group will become a thing of the past in the near future. You can watch it from the sky and see how I make you live forever." Efforts turned into nothing but destroyed."
Hearing this, Mr. Lu opened his eyes.
For a moment, his breathing became much more stable, and he raised his weak hands, and under Lu Shaoyan's surprised gaze, he took off the breathing mask on his face.
"Speak less, I'm sorry, what I owe you and your mother, my father knows that I can't make up for it in this life, you and your mother have suffered a lot, because I..." Mr. Lu said with difficulty and slowly: "When I was young, I was I was too conceited, which led to you and your mother... "
Mr. Lu paused, took a deep breath, and continued: "But, don't be like your father, don't be like your father's conceit. Dad gave you the money in the hope that you will live a peaceful and prosperous life. Dad will take care of it. , that money, even if you... even if you squander it recklessly, it is enough to squander your whole life, and the overseas assets I left for your mother are all... all yours!"
"Dad knows that money can't make up for the harm Dad has done to you, but don't say anything, you must...don't fight Beichuan, you can't beat him!"
"Can't fight?" Lu Shaoyan sneered, "Now that Mrs. Shen is on my side, and that prodigal son You Jing is also in my hands, and your real estate and overseas assets are also owned by me now. Why can't I beat Lu Beichuan?"
Mr. Lu shook his head and tugged at his sleeve, "Dad watched Bei Chuan grow up. Dad knows Bei Chuan's abilities. You trust Dad and don't fight him. Otherwise, sooner or later... sooner or later, you will..."
"I will live well, and I will see the day when the Lu family falls from power." Lu Shaoyan held his hand, and forcefully pulled old man Lu's hand away. See how I brought down the Lu family and your proud grandson step by step!"
Mr. Lu anxiously wanted to grab Lu Shaoyan's hand, but when he grabbed it, it was in vain.
"Speak less, talk less, promise Dad that you won't fight against Lu Beichuan," Old Master Lu said anxiously, "Father knows he was wrong, now I just hope you can... you can live your life in peace, promise Dad, don't fight Beichuan , don't... don't..."
Mr. Lu's face became paler, and the sound of the ECG monitor in the room became more urgent. Lu Shaoyan gritted his teeth and looked at him coldly, without saying a word.
"Speak less, talk less, promise daddy, promise daddy!" Mr. Lu begged Lu Shaoyan involuntarily. He couldn't do anything but beg him.
Lu Shaoyan clenched his hands tightly, staring at the ECG monitor, his eyes gradually turned red.
He doesn't regret it, not at all!
Not sad, not sad at all.
They all deserve it, they deserve it!
"Yan...yan, Yanyan, promise...promise dad, please...please..." The slightly opened mouth stopped abruptly, and a pair of eager eyes still looked at Lu Shaoyan, but at this time, there was no emotion anymore. .
Mr. Lu's face was covered with a layer of dead white ashes, and his eyes were wide open.
The ECG monitor made a sharp and piercing sound, which lasted for a long time.
