"You promised me, you promised me to accompany me to grow old, I have only you, don't leave me." Knowing that Lu Shang couldn't hear now, Li Sui couldn't help but plead softly.

The person on the hospital bed did not respond, and beside him, in a place where Li Sui could not see, the monitor at the head of the bed quietly drew a bump line with different frequencies.

The room temperature in the CCU was low. Li Sui only stayed for a while, and his hands and feet were all cold. Fortunately, the coat that Dr. Liang prepared for him was thick enough. On the shelf, watch Lu Shang fall asleep.

It was late at night, there was no one outside the corridor, no lights were turned on in the room, only the indicator light of the machine flickered occasionally.

Li Sui leaned against him half asleep, and vaguely noticed that the door was loose and someone swiped his card to come in. He woke up suddenly, and his first reaction was to think that Liang Zirui had come to tell him to go out, but when he looked up, he found that he was out of shape. This man was a little fat, obviously neither Liang Zirui nor Dean Liang.

In order to avoid being noticed that Liang Zirui would be scolded again, Li Sui quickly retracted his body under the bed before he turned on the light, and peeked out his eyes from the gap.

But the person who came in didn't mean to turn on the light at all, and instead sneakily locked the door, causing Li Sui to snort. Because of the cover of the bed, he couldn't see his face, and only glimpsed the familiar white coat.

Li Sui's intuition about people has always been accurate. Seeing that this person's walking movements were so slow and unnatural that he was like a thief, he couldn't help but be wary.

The visitor stood in front of Lu Shang's bed for a long time, and when Li Sui couldn't help crawling out to question him, he suddenly took out a bag of potions from the pocket of his white coat, and started to replace Lu Shang in a panic. on the infusion stand.

Li Sui saw it, his head buzzed, he rolled out immediately, knocked over the things in his hand, and restrained him with his backhand: "Who are you?"

When he said this, Li Sui didn't forget to quickly turn his head to glance at Lu Shang on the bed, seeing that he was not affected, so he went to see the person who was subduing him. This is a middle-aged man who also looks like a doctor. The other party obviously did not expect that there would be other people in the room. He was so frightened that he even forgot to resist.

The fighting between the two was too loud, triggering the alarm, and there was a loud noise outside the door. Soon, Liang Zirui cursed and led someone over.

Li Sui took off his mask and frowned slightly. He had seen this person before. This was an anesthesiologist in the hospital.

The CCU door was opened, Liang Zirui stepped in, and was about to open his mouth to swear when he turned on the light and saw the ground, Li Sui was holding a middle-aged man with a dignified expression, and was stunned for a while: "What's the situation?"

Soon, all the unrelated people were cleared out, Liang Zirui locked the office door, and his face was not very good: "I found out, the potion contains a high concentration of potassium chloride, if it is injected into the body, the patient will die within a few minutes. , and the symptoms of death can be very similar to a heart attack."

Someone actually hurt Lu Shang right under his nose, Li Sui's breath trembled, as if he was trying his best to endure something: "What about others?"

"Temporarily locked up, I found someone to watch him."

Li Sui got up to go out, Liang Zirui hurriedly held him down: "This person has been in Rui Ge for more than ten years, he is a mediocre person, he has always been timid, he has no courage to commit murder, there must be someone behind him. ."

"Is he willing to give up his instructions?" Li Sui asked.

Liang Zirui nodded: "I said it, but it's useless. He only knows his online line, but he doesn't know who the mastermind is. The other party has always been in unilateral contact, and his anti-investigation ability is very strong."

Having said that, Liang Zirui paused, "However, with such caution, it is not difficult to guess who it is."

Li Sui squeezed his fists loudly: "Liu Xingtian..."

He has a direct interest relationship with Lu Shang, has the ability to infiltrate the Regal Hospital, and does not reveal any traces of his actions. Even if he wants to call the police, he cannot be caught. At the same time, there is no other old fox who meets these three conditions, except Liu Xingtian.

"If I'm not here today..." Li Sui thought about it and broke into a cold sweat, looked up at Liang Zirui, and said seriously, "The surgery can't be done here, it's too dangerous."

Liang Zirui thought about it with him and nodded slowly: "I really didn't expect Liu Xingtian to do such a thing. I'll inform Leon right away. Besides, what are you going to do with this person? Hand it over to the police?"

Li Sui thought for a while, and his eyes became cold: "Don't call the police first, so as not to startle the snake."

Liang Zirui nodded. As soon as he went out, Uncle Yuan knocked on the door and came in. He said solemnly, "There's something wrong with the company."

It was the cold winter and the twelfth lunar month, and it was New Year's. There were very few people on the street. The two of them were driving on the road, as if they were infected by the temperature, and they both had a cold face.

"More than half of the shareholders now support the holding of a shareholders' meeting and the replacement of board members. Mr. Lu is not there, and we have no way to stop him." Uncle Yuan said solemnly.

"Don't Lushang own 40% of the shares? Plus what I won before, isn't there any room for it?"

Uncle Yuan shook his head: "The company has regulations that only shareholders can exercise their rights and interests. Mr. Lu is now like this, and the part of the shares in his hands is equivalent to sleeping."

"Lu Shang has just entered the hospital with his front foot, and his back foot is about to seize power?" Li Sui's voice was extremely cold. He thought of the anesthesiologist who tried to change Lu Shang's dressings at night. After contacting him, it seemed to make sense. He wanted to take the opportunity to put the Lu family to death.

"How is the situation inside the company?"

Uncle Yuan just shook his head: "After the news of Mr. Lu's critical illness spread, everything went haywire."

When Li Sui arrived at Dongyan, he realized that it was no exaggeration for Uncle Yuan to say that it was all messed up. The hall was in a mess, with waste paper everywhere, and a few employees walked to the garage with a gloomy face holding cardboard boxes. Li Sui saw a familiar administrative girl and stepped forward to stop her: "Where are you going?"

As soon as the girl saw Li Sui, she became even more angry, and put the cardboard box on the ground: "Director Li, I have worked in the company for five years, and there is no credit or hard work. If it's a New Year's Eve, if you want me to go, let me go. I'm leaving, President Lu is not here, are you going to dismiss all his people?"

Li Sui was stunned by her scolding.

When a passing worker saw it, they hurried over to persuade the girl to leave. Before leaving, they gave Li Sui a meaningful look, and those eyes were clearly disdainful.

Li Sui felt inexplicable for a while, and when he turned his head, he saw Xiao Tang on the stairs.

Logically speaking, this girl should be on a business trip in Japan. When has she returned? Is the contract signed so soon

He was about to wave to her, but Xiao Tang noticed his movement and turned upstairs first, as if avoiding him on purpose, and asked loudly, "Is Mr. Liu's tea ready?"

Li Sui paused, clenched his hands, and said nothing.

After getting out of the elevator, the office was also a mess. The employees who had followed him moved the desks away. When they saw him come in, they all bowed their heads and didn't dare to face him.

Li Sui stood in the middle of the partition for a while. The depressed atmosphere around him made him breathless. At this moment, a text message came from Xiao Tang on his mobile phone - "The pantry on the 34th floor."

Li Sui put away the phone and went down from the corner.

Xiao Tang had been waiting there for a long time, and when he saw him coming down, he immediately pulled him in, looked left and right, and closed the door. He turned around and breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice, "Mr. Liu issued a layoff announcement this morning, and cleaned up all of Mr. Lu's confidant departments. Those who did not express their positions in time were dismissed by him, because the announcement went away. It's the original process, and they all thought you sent it."

What a trick to kill with a knife, Li Sui sneered.

"What's wrong with Mr. Lu? When will he come back?" Xiao Tang asked anxiously.

Li Sui's expression was gloomy: "Maybe I won't be back for a while."

"Huh? Is he seriously ill?"

Li Sui didn't answer her, lowered his head and was silent for a while, and asked, "What about lawyer Xu and the others?"

"Lawyer Xu has been assigned a bunch of difficult cases by President Liu. It is estimated that he is in a lot of trouble at the moment. Everyone in the company is in danger now, and no one dares to come out and speak for President Lu."

Li Sui felt exhausted for a while. He was responsible for this matter. After Lu Shang's accident, he didn't take good care of Dongyan right away, which made Liu Xingtian take advantage of it.

"What's worse, several projects in our hands have been suspended, saying that the staff will be redistributed after the shareholders' meeting."

Li Sui clenched his fists unconsciously: "When is the shareholders meeting?"

"the day after tomorrow."

"...The day after tomorrow." Li Sui repeated in a low voice.

There were people walking around outside the pantry, and it was inconvenient for Xiao Tang to stay with him for a long time, so he had to make a cup of coffee and go out first.

"Thank you." Before going out, Li Sui solemnly said to her.

The door was closed, and the room gradually became quiet, except for the water dispenser, which was happily bubbling. After being bombarded with negative news all day long, Li Sui was exhausted for a while, and sat down on the edge of the table, pressing his palms on his eyebrows.

Since taking over Dongyan, Li Sui has not been able to handle it smoothly, but it has been generally smooth, and there are occasional minor troubles, which can always be resolved after a lot of hard work.

For the first time, he felt an unprecedented crisis. When Lu Shang was not there, he was forced to retreat by Liu Xingtian, and he could only be in a situation where he had nowhere to go. He didn't know until then that, after all, he had been meticulously cared for in the shade by Lu Shang. That's it.

Li Sui realized that he couldn't be so passive, and he couldn't let Liu Xingtian take away the fruits of the Lu family's painstaking efforts for so many years. Real power, he needs real power.

Thinking of this, Li Sui got up and knocked on Uncle Yuan's office door: "Uncle Yuan, give me Lu Shang's will."

After being busy for half my life, when I parted, I didn't fill a single piece of paper with everything I could think of. Li Sui took the fair report from Uncle Yuan, but felt extremely heavy inside.

Uncle Yuan went out the door quietly, leaving the space for him. Li Sui sat on the sofa alone, after a long period of psychological construction, he had the courage to open the thin cover paper.

Lu Shang's writing was very concise, but also very clear. Li Sui tried his best to keep his composure and read it, and when he saw that "the property of the Lu Family Courtyard and the 40% shares of Dongyan Group held by me were all donated to Li Sui", he finally Still unable to hold back, holding the will and sobbing.

…

After hitting a wall in the company for a day, and last night he almost stayed up all night, on the way back, Li Sui didn't say a word, and leaned on the seat in a daze.

Passing by a commercial street, Li Sui looked out the window where the snow was flying, suddenly sat up, and called out "Stop."

Uncle Yuan thought he saw some acquaintance, so he hurriedly stepped on the brakes, Li Sui opened the car door, and walked across the road without using an umbrella.

This is an inconspicuous mobile phone store with an old signboard, which is really not high-end. The owner of the store should be planning to close the store, and the rolling shutter door covers half of it. Li Sui stood on the side of the road, did not go in, just watched from a distance.

"Do you want to buy something?" Uncle Yuan came over with an umbrella.

Li Sui shook his head, watching the store owner rush in and out of packing things, his eyes gradually became more emotional.

"It snowed heavily one year," Li Sui said absentmindedly, looking into the distance, "The snow was very thick, he took me out to buy a mobile phone, and when I was crossing the road, I slipped, and he suddenly turned around and gave I have one hand. His hand was cold, but it was the warmest thing I've ever touched in my life."

Uncle Yuan listened quietly, Li Sui lowered his head and took a deep breath: "Uncle Yuan, I'm going to make a decision, I hope you don't blame me."

In the evening, Li Sui did not go home, but went directly to the hospital. He stayed with Lu Shang in the ICU for a while, and whispered into his ear for a long time.

As soon as he came out, the tenderness in his eyes immediately disappeared, his face sank, and he asked Liang Zirui, "Is that anesthesiologist still there?"

"Yes, do you want to hand it over to the police?"

"No, let him go."

Liang Zirui was stunned, and Li Sui continued, "Let him report the good news to Liu Xingtian and tell him it's done."

"You're thinking… "

Li Sui looked at him: "Make a death certificate for Lu Shang."

It was not only Liang Zirui who made this decision. When Li Sui said it, even Old Dean Liang was deeply surprised: "Have you decided? It's easy to bribe a forensic doctor, but once your identity is cancelled, you can't come back."

Li Sui clenched his fists and begged, "Please."

The two doctors looked at each other and sighed helplessly.

"Tomorrow night, I will secretly arrange a plane to take you to the island, which is fully equipped and safer." The two walked through the corridor, and Li Sui told Dr. Liang about his arrangements.

The snow had stopped outside. Looking at the vast expanse of whiteness from a distance, Liang Zirui nodded and let out a sigh of relief: "Leon brought his surgical team, and they will be there tomorrow morning."

Although the arrangement was made by Li Sui, there was no less worry in his eyes: "If I am not wrong, once the announcement of Lu Shang's death will be issued tomorrow, Liu Xingtian will definitely monitor me closely, in order to ensure that the operation will not be disturbed. Excuse me, I won't contact you after you pass."

Liang Zirui rubbed his hands in coldness and laughed: "Then what do you do? You can't help but ask about his situation?"

Li Sui hesitated: "I..."

"In this way, after the operation, I will send you an advertisement with an unfamiliar number. If the end part is 'unsubscribe, please press Y', it means success. If it is 'unsubscribe, please press N', it means failure, eh?" Dr. Liang said. .

"Thank you..." Li Sui said.

Dr. Liang waved his hand: "Even if the operation is successful, don't be too happy. After all, the operation is only the first stage. After the operation, he has to go through a critical period of 24 hours. If he can survive these 24 hours, he will be considered Really passed the gate of hell."

Li Sui lowered his head and was silent for a while, then asked, "Do you want a blood transfusion?"

Liang Zirui turned to look at him, and Li Sui asked again, "The operation requires blood transfusion, right?"

"Blood banks are not ischemic."

"I know," Li Sui said in a low voice, "I just... want to use my own method to impart some power to him."

Liang Zirui stared at him for a long time, and always felt that Li Sui's expression seemed to make him feel wronged if he didn't draw blood for him, but it would be better to draw some blood, so that he would not have too much energy, so he took him to the next door for blood. Stop drawing blood.

"Are you okay?" the nurse asked with concern.

Li Sui nodded: "It's okay."

Watching the red blood flow out of his body along the plastic tube and into the container, thinking that it would flow into Lu Shang's body later, Li Sui suddenly had a strange emotion. Look, he and Lu Shang are obviously not blood relatives, but blood is still thicker than water.

After the nurse drew blood, she put away the utensils. It was customary to give Li Sui a few milk tablets to supplement her blood sugar. When she left, Liang Zirui explained to her, "This is the designated blood. Please store it separately."

"understood."

When Liang Zirui came in, he found that Li Sui was in a daze with the milk candy.

"Are you dizzy, why are you in a daze?"

Li Sui shook his head and explained, "This candy was often bought by Lu merchants in the past, and the family almost never ran out of stock."

Liang Zirui laughed: "Have you seen things and missed people before we parted?"

"I'm just curious," Li Sui put the milk tablet into his mouth, "I'm obviously not the kid who didn't know anything before, why does he still keep these habits, whether it's eating or using it? ."

Liang Zirui glanced at him, with an obvious tone,

"I think it's because, no matter how old or capable you are, you will always be his little friend in his heart."
