She was wrong. She shouldn't have assumed that all rich people were equally evil. Thinking of what she had said at the entrance of the Huo Corporation, Li Lian was filled with regret. Her tone was full of self-blame. "I was ignorant. I'm willing to tell everyone the truth and clear the Huo Corporation's name."
Shuxin was overjoyed. She forgave Li Lian completely. "I'm happy that you're willing to mend your ways. I'm sure Haohao will be proud to have a brave mother like you."
Speaking of Haohao, Li Lian broke down instantly. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed. "Mrs. Huo, please save my Haohao …"
Shuxin hurriedly got off the bed to help Li Lian up. "What are you doing? Get up. Let's talk. "
Li Lian was terrified when she saw Shuxin get off the bed. She almost had a miscarriage when she tried to save Haohao. If anything else happened, Li Lian would not be able to atone for her sins.
Li Lian hurriedly helped Shuxin lie down on the bed and held her hand tightly. "Haohao was born prematurely and was malnourished. His body has always been weak and he often fainted when he was young. We took him to the hospital for checkups and the doctor said that he had an irregular heartbeat. He recovered quickly and didn't need surgery. He just needed to stay in the hospital and take care of his body. But … I don't even have the ability to give him a bowl of chicken soup, let alone a bowl of money … The school rejected him because of his condition … I'm useless … I can't give Haohao a stable home … I can't let him go to school like a normal child … Mrs. Huo, please help me … I'm willing to be your slave for the rest of my life …"
Li Lian wanted to kneel on the ground again.
Shuxin pulled her back in time. "Don't do this. I'll help you."
Li Lian's face was full of surprise. She was so emotional that she burst into tears.
After a long while, Li Lian finally calmed down.
Shuxin asked her, "Do you know the name of the person who bribed you?"
Li Lian shook her head. "It's a man in his fifties or sixties. I remember his face, but he didn't say his name."
"What about the money? Did he call you? "
Li Lian blushed in shame. "Twenty thousand. He said that he would give me the remaining thirty thousand after the job is done. I will definitely return the money later …"
"There's no rush. Give me his account number. I need it."
"Alright." Li Lian planned to use the money to treat Hao Hao's illness, so she carried the card with her everywhere. She immediately went to the ATM on the first floor of the hospital to check the other party's account number. Then, she wrote it down and handed it to Shuxin.
Shuxin called Ji Chifeng while Li Lian was on the first floor. She explained Hao Hao's situation to him. Not long after, Ji Chifeng arranged for someone to pick Hao Hao up and send him to the corresponding ward for treatment.
Needless to say, Li Lian wept in gratitude.
After making arrangements for Haohao, Shuxin called Huo Yanqing. "Is there any news from the Quality Supervision Bureau?"
"Yes, there's no problem with the water. Have a good rest. I'll take care of the company. Don't worry." Huo Yanqing's deep voice sounded from the other end of the line. It was reassuring.
Shuxin smiled. "Okay. When will the press conference be held?"
"Didn't I tell you not to worry?"
"Do you still remember the woman who tried to incite everyone at the entrance of the Huo Corporation this morning?"
"… Yes."
Even though it was just a simple 'yes', Shuxin could tell that Huo Yanqing was unhappy at the mention of Li Lian.
Yes, she had slandered his company and hurt his wife and child. How could he be happy?
