In the intensive care unit of the First Hospital, the intensive care unit was built with transparent glass walls at a high cost. It represented the rescue level of critical diseases in the entire Wangshan City.
Chen Xing stood outside the ward and looked in. He could see Li Yanli lying quietly on the bed with many infusion tubes in her body.
Chen Xing watched quietly for a while. Next to him, someone was also looking at him. It was Li Yanli's family. A middle-aged man looked at Chen Xing for a while and finally came over. Are you Yanli's friend?
Hmm? Chen Xing turned his head to look at him and then at the old man next to him. He vaguely guessed that he should be Li Yanli's family.
I'm Yanli's brother. Thank you for coming to visit her. The middle-aged man thanked Chen Xing.
You're welcome. It's only right for you to visit Miss Li after what happened to her. Chen Xing shook his head. After that, he turned his eyes to Li Yanli in the ward and frowned slightly. Chen Xing couldn't help but ask, Miss Li hasn't woken up yet?
Not yet. The middle-aged man shook his head, looked at Chen Xing and said, "Brother, tell me your name. When Yanli wakes up, I'll tell her that you've come to visit her."
Chen Xing was slightly stunned and immediately smiled. "I've only met Miss Li a few times. She actually doesn't know my name. I heard about her by chance, so I came to the hospital to have a look."
"Oh, I see. Thank you very much." When the middle-aged man heard Chen Xing's words, he looked grateful. His impression of Chen Xing suddenly improved. A friend who had only met a few times came to visit him. This kind of affection was even more precious.
As they were talking, a surprised voice suddenly came from the side. Yan seemed to have woken up. She opened her eyes. Quick, go and call the doctor.
The person who spoke was Li Yanli's father. When the middle-aged man heard this, he didn't have time to say anything to Chen Xing and hurried to call the doctor.
Li Yanli did wake up. She stared blankly at everything in front of her. Her mind was still stuck in the memory of last night. Her eyes were filled with fear and despair. The doctor came, but the patient's family was still asked to wait outside. The ICU was not a place where people could enter at will.
The doctor checked Li Yanli's condition and said something to her at the same time. Chen Xing and the others could only see Li Yanli's head turning slightly through the glass. At this moment, after knowing that they were in the hospital, the fear in Li Yanli's eyes did not decrease at all. She tried hard to open her mouth, trying to say something.
You've just woken up, so you're still weak. Don't speak. The doctor said.
After confirming that Li Yanli had passed the most critical moment, the doctor left the ward. Looking at the family members waiting outside the corridor, the doctor said, "The patient has just woken up and is out of danger ahead of time. However, she is still very weak and needs more rest. There are too many of you, so don't all go in and disturb the patient's rest. You can send a representative in to see her, but it's best to talk to her less. She needs to rest now and will recover in two days.
Doctor, can you let us in? We can go in without talking. The middle-aged man said.
No, there are rules. The ICU ward cannot be entered and exited at will. This is to reduce the amount of air circulation. If there is too much air circulation, it is easy to breed bacteria. Don't you see that we medical staff also have to change clothes, shoes, and wear hats when we go in? The doctor shook his head and explained briefly.
There are so many rules. The middle-aged man curled his lips, but he did not argue with the doctor. He turned to look at his parents and said, "Mom, why don't you go in?"
Li Yanli's mother nodded. She changed clothes and shoes according to the rules of the hospital and went in.
Chen Xing watched from outside. He was a little relieved that Li Yanli had woken up. He still cared about this woman who had a relationship with him.
Li Yanli turned her head and looked out of the ward. Her eyes were anxious and eager. She wanted to say something, but because she had lost too much blood and had just woken up from a coma after a major operation, she found that she did not even have the strength to open her mouth to speak.
Li Yanli's eyes were a little moist when she saw her mother walking in and her father, brother, and other relatives standing outside the ward. Li Yanli's eyes were a little moist. She had taken a trip to the gates of hell. At this moment, Li Yanli truly felt what it was like to be alive. Li Yanli did not see her in-laws or her husband's other relatives. Li Yanli roughly knew what was going on. At the last moment after she fainted last night, she vaguely heard someone say, "He's dead …". If she was not mistaken, her husband was already dead. Her in-laws and other relatives might be busy dealing with her husband's funeral.
Li Yanli wanted to say something. She wanted to tell them about the murderer. Although she did not know who the murderer was, she knew what was related to it. As long as she followed that person, she would definitely be able to find out.
Her eyes moved. After a while, Li Yanli felt a little dizzy. Her eyelids closed heavily again. She wanted to struggle to take the oxygen mask out of her mouth, but she could not move.
When a familiar figure flashed past her eyes, Li Yanli's pupils instantly dilated. Her eyes were filled with disbelief. Her body moved more and more violently, struggling to get up. Li Yanli felt that she had used all the strength in her body and had moved as much as she could. However, in the eyes of others, they only saw her body moving slightly.
Li Yanli's mother went in. Seeing her daughter moving, her mother's eyes were filled with tears. She thought that her daughter had survived a disaster and was excited to see her family. She quickly stepped forward and wanted to hold her daughter's body. The nurse beside her hurriedly stopped her. She said that the patient had just woken up and should not make such a big movement.
Li Yanli turned her head anxiously. She saw Chen Xing. She did not know why Chen Xing was here. However, when she saw Chen Xing on the TV news, she was filled with curiosity and surprise about this secretary of the Municipal Party Committee who would seek pleasure with a strange woman like her in a bar. More than that, she doubted and denied it. She also thought that they might not be the same person, but in her heart, she still believed that they were the same person. At this moment, Li Yanli was eager to tell Chen Xing about her experience and the murder case last night. The fear in the depths of her eyes was more like she had seen a life-saving straw.
Xiao Yan, rest well. The doctor said that you have passed the most dangerous stage and will recover very quickly. You will be able to leave the ward in two days. Don't worry. Seeing that her daughter kept turning her head, Li Yanli's mother thought that her daughter was happy and excited. She also comforted her daughter.
Chen Xing stood outside the ward with a smile on his face. Feeling that Li Yanli was also looking at him, Chen Xing smiled and nodded. After chatting with Li Yanli's brother for a while, Chen Xing was ready to leave. When he came over, he happened to see Li Yanli waking up. Knowing that Li Yanli was out of danger in advance, Chen Xing was also quite relieved.
At this time, a woman in her forties walked over, followed by a young woman. The older woman glanced into the ward. When her eyes swept over Chen Xing's face, a trace of surprise flashed through her eyes.
This is Manager Qian from our company. She specially came to see Deputy Manager Li. The young woman was talking to the middle-aged man.
When the middle-aged man heard that she was the boss of his sister's company, he quickly welcomed her warmly. Chen Xing didn't stay any longer. After nodding to the other party, he took one last look at Li Yanli in the ward and turned to leave.
Chen Xing didn't see the eagerness in Li Yanli's eyes when she saw him leave, nor did he see the deep fear on Li Yanli's face when she saw the woman in her forties.
The VIP ward where Li Yanpei stayed was in another ward. When Chen Xing came to Li Yanpei's ward, he happened to see Li Yanpei eating, accompanied by Cai Yalan and her daughter. When they saw Chen Xing coming over, they both stood up. Li Yanpei was still sitting. She glanced at Chen Xing without much expression on her face and just continued eating.
Yan Pei, Secretary Chen is here. Why don't you stand up and welcome him? Cai Yalan tugged at Li Yanpei.
Sister Cai, there's no need for those red tape. Chen Xing smiled and waved his hand. He glanced at Li Yanpei. He could see that Li Yanpei was in a good state of mind. In the past month, Chen Xing had also heard about Li Yanpei's situation. Except that he still couldn't remember the past and his IQ was not normal, there was not much change in other aspects.
Walking to the chair and sitting down, Chen Xing looked at Li Yanpei. Li Yanpei now didn't have the concept of superiors and subordinates. Chen Xing naturally wouldn't ask Li Yanpei to stand up respectfully or something. In fact, seeing Li Yanpei like this, Chen Xing was a little envious of him. The ignorant had no worries. How many people could live without worries?
Secretary Chen, have you had dinner? Li Ying asked Chen Xing. She brought food from home today. She made some corn and pork ribs soup. At this time, she enthusiastically served the soup to Chen Xing.
Xiao Li, you don't have to serve me. Chen Xing smiled and waved his hand. He hadn't eaten yet, so he told a white lie.
You can drink some soup after eating. Li Ying smiled.
It was because he was too full that he didn't dare to drink more. Chen Xing shook his head and smiled. Xiao Li, you really don't have to serve me. Look, my secretary and driver are here. Is your soup enough?
Hearing Chen Xing's words, Li Ying smiled bitterly and didn't insist.
At this moment, Cai Yalan suddenly stood up and said, Xiao Ying, I'll accompany your father for a walk downstairs. You and Secretary Chen sit down.
After Cai Yalan finished speaking, she helped Li Yanpei out. In addition to Li Yanpei's brain injury, the car accident also caused her right leg to be fractured. However, compared to the brain injury, the fracture in her leg was almost negligible. Although she hadn't recovered yet, she was almost there.
Chen Xing looked at Cai Yalan in surprise. When he arrived, Cai Yalan said that she wanted to take a walk downstairs with Li Yanpei. It was obvious that she wanted to avoid him. Chen Xing nodded and didn't say anything. After Cai Yalan left, Chen Xing looked at Li Ying in confusion.
Secretary Chen, recently, my mother and I have been hesitating about whether to operate on my father. Li Ying walked over and closed the door of the ward. Jiang Dongming didn't come to the hospital often because his father had woken up and he had officially retired. Jiang Dongming was no longer his father's secretary. Now, he had to participate in the work of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and would occasionally come to the hospital to visit.
I heard from Comrade Yuanfei that you were thinking about this matter. Why, haven't you thought about it yet? Chen Xing nodded and thought to himself, So it was because of this matter.
It turned out that Uncle Xu had already told you about it. Li Ying was stunned and then said with a smile, "Uncle Xu has been in Mountain Gaze recently, and he seems to be different from before."
"Why is Comrade Yuanfei different?" Chen Xing asked casually with a smile.
"In the past, he was not in the city and mostly stayed in his hometown in Northern Yuan. I heard from my father that Uncle Xu has long been disheartened by things in the city and doesn't want to stay in Mountain Gaze for long. He said that out of sight, out of mind. Now he is in Mountain Gaze, which is a welcome change. It seems that this change only happened after Secretary Chen came." Li Ying said.
"This doesn't necessarily have anything to do with me. As a member of the city's leadership, Comrade Yuanfei hasn't been working for a long time. What's wrong with that?" Chen Xing smiled faintly. "It seems that we are getting sidetracked again. We are talking about your father, but now we are talking about someone else."
"Yes, we are getting sidetracked again." Li Ying smiled bitterly. "Secretary Chen, my mother and I can't make up our minds, but I think that if my father always can't remember the past, and his IQ is a little abnormal, it won't be a good thing in the long run.
If the doctor's opinion is that the operation will not bring about sequelae, then I think you should carefully consider the operation. Of course, the decision is in your hands. I am just expressing my own opinion. " Chen Xing said solemnly.
"I know. I just want to ask for your opinion, Secretary Chen." Li Ying nodded. After a moment of silence, she said, "Maybe my mom and I were too optimistic before, and felt that even the greatest miracle had happened. My dad might be able to recover on his own, but in the past month, there was no sign of improvement. Every day, when my dad looked at me and my mom, it was as if he was looking at a familiar stranger, my mom and I felt very uncomfortable."
Li Ying looked a little helpless. It was a miracle that a vegetative person could wake up. Moreover, her father woke up after being in a coma for more than half a month, which made her and her mother full of confidence about his future recovery. But in the past month, they were suddenly hit by a blow. In reality, there were not so many miracles.
"Now that the experts invited by the hospital for consultation have already left, I am thinking whether we should ask the hospital to invite more people." Li Ying said hesitantly.
"Then you have to think about it carefully. Those experts are all authoritative experts in the field of brain surgery. It is not easy for the hospital to invite them. When the hospital spends a lot of effort to invite them, you can't decide whether to do the operation or not. In that case, the hospital will really waste their efforts." Chen Xing said with a smile.
"Well, we will think about it and then discuss with the hospital." Li Ying nodded. She knew that her family was very lucky. Because her father was a leader in the city, the hospital would do their best to cooperate with their request. If it were ordinary people, they would not be able to enjoy this kind of treatment.
They talked for a while. Chen Xing did not blindly persuade Li Ying to let her father do the operation. As an outsider, he could not make a decision on behalf of Li Ying's family, let alone say too much.
When they came out of the hospital, it was already half an hour later. Chen Xing looked at the time. It was almost seven o 'clock. He did not stay in Li Yanpei's ward for long. He just went to see Li Yanli and was delayed for a while. He had not had dinner yet, and now he felt hungry.
"Are you two so hungry that your chests are sticking to your backs?" Chen Xing turned to look at Huang Jianghua and Li Yong and said with a smile.
"Fortunately, it is not very late now." Huang Jianghua replied with a smile.
"Come on, let's go for dinner." Chen Xing smiled.
When they were about to get in the car, they did not notice that the middle-aged woman who just went to see Li Yanli was sitting in a Mercedes-Benz passing by. Seeing Chen Xing's figure, the middle-aged woman stared at him. The car slowly passed by, and the middle-aged woman's eyes also moved along with it. She stared at Chen Xing for a moment until the car drove out of the hospital and Chen Xing could no longer be seen.
Qian Li was the head of the finance department of the Xincheng Group and was in charge of the core finance of the group. As Qian Xinlai's biological sister, she knew all the core secrets of the group. From the beginning of the Xincheng Group to the present, Qian Li knew all kinds of secret matters and shameful asset mergers and acquisitions. She was also involved in them. There were many shameful matters in the Xincheng Group, especially when it came to money. If it was not for the fact that her biological sister was in charge of the finance department, Qian Xinlai would not have been at ease.
There were clear accounts and secret accounts in the company's finance department. Many people in the finance department might know that some of the group's money transactions were not clear, but most of them knew it and no one would investigate it. In fact, the unclear money transactions that could be known to ordinary employees were just child's play. With the current power of the Xincheng Group, they were not afraid of being investigated. The really shameful accounts were in Qian Li's hands. Only her own family knew that when the Qian Family became rich, they bribed officials, bought state-owned assets at low prices, sold them for profit, or kept them for themselves. These were all long accounts, which recorded many improper transactions.
The Qian Clan had secretly prepared such an account book not to leave trouble for themselves, but to use it as a means to protect themselves in the future. If something really happened in the future, those officials who were involved, if they wanted to clear their name, the account book in their hands would be a great killing weapon.
This account book not only recorded the improper transactions, but also clearly recorded which officials were bribed, how much money was bribed, when the bribe was done, and how many times. It could be said that if this secret account book was leaked, it would be enough to completely shake the entire Mountain Gaze officialdom.
Qian Li had only discovered that her computer had been transferred two days ago. Her husband was a computer expert and a professor in the Computer Science Department of the University of Nanzhou. Her computer had malfunctioned, but because there were too many secrets in it, she did not dare to ask someone to repair it. She specially called her husband, who would only come back on weekends, back from Nanzhou. During the repair process, her husband inadvertently mentioned that the computer had traces of information being copied. Qian Li instantly became vigilant.
In the past month, the only person who had entered her office and had access to the computer was Li Yanli. Qian Li remembered that about a month ago, when she had worked overtime, she had to leave because of an urgent matter. She had asked Li Yanli to come to her office to help finish the work at hand. It was also that night that someone could have touched her computer. Therefore, the only suspect was Li Yanli.
Qian Li was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat. She had set up several layers of password protection for the important accounting information, and she would not let anyone touch her computer on weekdays. However, that night, she forgot that she had opened the file and did not turn it off. After answering the phone, she left in a hurry. When she came to the office the next day, the computer had been turned off. Qian Li did not pay attention to it. The accounting information had been copied. She immediately looked for Qian Xinlai. Not only her, but Qian Xinlai was also so scared that he almost had a heart attack.
Fortunately, the information was back. Qian Li sat quietly in the car, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.
Back to the company. Qian Li suddenly ordered the driver.
Qian Xinlai usually lived in the company. The top floor of the Xincheng Building was the office floor that belonged to Qian Xinlai. Not only did it have the largest conference room of the group, but Qian Xinlai's office, which was two to three hundred square meters, also had a luxurious resting and living area. Qian Xinlai often stayed in the company at night.
Tonight, she had met Chen Xing in the hospital by chance. Unexpectedly, he had also come to see Li Yanli. This shocked Qian Li, but she did not dare to be careless. She was going to return to the company to look for Qian Xinlai.
The car quickly returned to the Xincheng Building. After entering the building, Qian Li took the elevator straight to the top floor. She came out of the elevator, swiped the door card, and entered the inner area. From Qian Xinlai's office, Qian Li faintly heard a woman's charming laughter. Qian Li frowned and gently knocked on the transparent glass door.
Qian Xinlai's assistant, Luo Ling, was sitting on Qian Xinlai's lap. Seeing Qian Li come in, Luo Ling hurriedly stood up from Qian Xinlai's lap, straightened her clothes, and stood aside with her head lowered.
Assistant Luo, can you go out for a while? Qian Li waved her hand.
Ah Li, didn't you go back? Why did you come back? Qian Xinlai looked at Luo Ling's back as she left, and turned to look at his sister.
I just went to the hospital to see her. She has already woken up and is out of danger. Qian Li was expressionless. The person you found last night was really a good-for-nothing. He couldn't even do such a small thing.
Last night, there was an accident. He was held back by Li Yanli's husband. He wanted to get rid of Li Yanli as well, but her husband hugged him tightly. When he wanted to get rid of Li Yanli, Li Yanli screamed, and someone opened the door. When he heard the sound of the door opening, he quickly left the scene. Qian Xinlai explained. Li Yanli was really lucky. Last night, he heard that Li Yanli's life was hanging by a thread, but he didn't expect that she would come back to life.
At the end of the day, the person you found to handle this matter is a little lacking in ability. Qian Li curled her lips.
Don't just talk about others. You were the cause of this disaster at the beginning. If you hadn't been careless, would this have happened? Qian Xinlai glanced at his sister. You should be the first to reflect on this matter.
Alright, let's not talk about this. We need to get rid of Li Yanli as soon as possible. The person who went last night was after the financial information. Li Yanli must have guessed that it was us. She has just woken up and is still very weak. She can't speak. We need to get rid of her as soon as possible. Qian Li's expression was cold. Li Yanli was the deputy head of the company's finance department and was her assistant. They had worked together for several years. But at this moment, Qian Li's face was expressionless. It was as if she didn't want the life of a colleague she had worked with for several years, but someone completely unrelated to her.
Since the financial information was back, there was nothing to worry about. The Public Security Bureau was full of our people. Do we still need to worry about what Li Yanli could do? Qian Xinlai smiled disdainfully. Don't worry. I will get someone to get rid of her later, and this matter will be over.
Brother, this matter can't be delayed. We need to be quick. Do you know who I met when I went to see Li Yanli last night? I met Chen Xing. Qian Li said coldly.
What did you say? Qian Xinlai's body trembled. He was no longer as relaxed and calm as before.
I met Chen Xing.
Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?
How could I be wrong? Although I haven't dealt with Chen Xing directly, he is the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee after all. I can't be wrong.
Then Chen Xing went to see Li Yanli? Could it be that you made a mistake?
No, Chen Xing went to see Li Yanli. When I went there, Chen Xing was about to leave. I asked Li Yanli's family. They didn't know who Chen Xing was. But Li Yanli's brother said that he was Li Yanli's friend. He said that he came to see Li Yanli. Do you think it's possible that you made a mistake?
Qian Xinlai listened to his sister's words without saying anything. His eyebrows had long been twisted into the shape of the character "Chuan", and his expression was even more gloomy and terrible. Extreme joy begets sorrow. When Qian Xinlai thought of these words, he felt an inexplicable panic. Did Chen Xing know about the financial information? Could it be that Li Yanli had a copy and gave it to Chen Xing?
Impossible. If that was the case, do you think we can still sit here now? Li Yanli has been copying the information for a month now. If she had given it to Chen Xing, we would have been wiped out long ago. Those officials in the city would have been in trouble as well. It would be impossible for things to be peaceful. Qian Li shook her head. She had thought about this on the way here, so she was not so nervous now.
You're right, but how did Li Yanli know Chen Xing? She copied the information and knew Chen Xing, but she didn't give the information to Chen Xing. The more I think about it, the more I think it is impossible. Qian Xinlai was confused.
I don't know how they knew each other. Now we don't have time to think so much. We should get rid of Li Yanli as soon as possible. Only dead people will keep secrets forever. We should get rid of Li Yanli before she says anything. As Qian Li spoke, she made a gesture of cutting her neck and said, "I'll ask my secretary to keep an eye on Li Yanli in the hospital and make sure that she hasn't talked to anyone during this time. Our top priority is to find someone to go to the hospital at night and get it done.
Well, you're right. We have to do it, and we have to do it well. Isn't Li Yanli lying in the ICU? Then let her lie there with her eyes closed forever. Anyway, it's normal for a critically ill patient to have an unexpected condition. Qian Xinlai smiled sinisterly.
"Brother, we can't make any mistakes tonight." Qian Li reminded him.
"Don't worry. I'll tell the people to do it well." Qian Xinlai nodded.
At the barbecue stall by the road, Li Yong parked the car in the roadside parking space. Chen Xing, Huang Jianghua, and Li Yong got out of the car and walked to the barbecue stall. They planned to order a few pots of barbecue and then have two bottles of beer together.
This was the second time that Chen Xing had eaten at a roadside stall since he came to Mount Wang. With the improvement of his status and position, Chen Xing knew that there would be fewer and fewer opportunities to eat at roadside stalls in the future. Now that he was the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, he would be a deputy ministerial cadre. His every word and deed would attract more attention, and he could no longer travel as casually as he did now. In fact, he had only been in Mount Wang for a short time, and not many people knew him. Therefore, he could still eat at such roadside stalls with his secretary and driver like an ordinary person. If more people knew him, someone would recognize him, and some reporters would report this matter. Originally, it was just an ordinary meal. Perhaps it would be described as an act of being close to the people, but in the eyes of outsiders, it would only be a show of being close to the people. It was just right for the reporters to see him, and they would report it at the right time.
His cell phone rang. Chen Xing picked up the phone and looked at it. When he saw the caller ID, Chen Xing was slightly stunned. It was Li Kaishan.
"Comrade Kaishan, are you calling me at this time to invite me to dinner?" After picking up the phone, Chen Xing joked. Although he only kept in touch with Li Kaishan at work and had many doubts about Li Kaishan, this did not prevent him from joking with Li Kaishan appropriately.
"Secretary Chen hasn't had dinner yet?" Li Kaishan was a little surprised.
"Not yet. I'm eating barbecue with my secretary and driver at a roadside stall on the street. Comrade Kaishan, do you want to join in the fun?" Chen Xing smiled and said casually.
"Okay, which street are you on, Secretary Chen?" Li Kaishan answered straightforwardly.
Chen Xing was surprised. It was just a casual question. He didn't expect Li Kaishan to agree so readily. He guessed that Li Kaishan must have something to talk to him face to face. Chen Xing soon felt relieved and told him the general location. Li Kaishan said that he would be there soon and then hung up the phone.
