Old Master Murong was lying on the large European carved bed, his face as white as paper.
The family doctor was nervously measuring his blood pressure and heart rate, and several young nurses were coming in and out of the room. The old master had always insisted on not going to the hospital, but Fang Wenlan had never disobeyed his wishes, and it was no exception this time as well. She could only use the bedroom as a ward and invite her family's doctor to treat her.
"Can I go in and take a look at the old master?" Fang Wenlan guarded the door like an ant on a hot pan.
She was the one who didn't want anything to happen to the Master the most. It wasn't easy for her to keep her son at the Mu Rong family's old home, and although he didn't have any status, he still had to give her some face since her son was the son of the Old Master Murong. The rich ladies of the upper classes seemed to respect her, and despised her in private. She did not care about that at all. As long as the old master was around, she would be justified sooner or later.
However, the disease came like a landslide. Just a small food poisoning was enough to completely defeat the Old Master Murong.
"You can't go in right now, don't affect our treatment!" The nurse rushed into the bedroom without bothering to elaborate.
Murong Aojie sat on the chair beside him, in a daze. His father was his amulet, and his life was of the utmost importance to him. He was here, he was still a Second Young Master of Murong Family. If he was not here, he and his mother would probably end up like beggars on the streets.
After Fang Wenlan received this mysterious phone call, all the panic on her face disappeared.
She took her son aside and said in a low voice, "You go and make a will. I'll find a chance to go in later and have the master print it."
"What?" Murong Aojie was a little confused.
"I don't think that even if Old Master really left, he would not blame us. People die for money, birds die for food. We must prepare for the worst and leave ourselves a way out. " A trace of ruthlessness flashed past Fang Wenlan's eyes.
"You want half of the property?" Murong Aojie was stunned for a long time before he quietly asked this question.
"Half? I want everything, everything! " Fang Wenlan suddenly became excited, like a patient who had lost control of his emotions.
"But Big Bro, he …" He has poured his blood and sweat for Murong Group, you are too heartless. No, I don't agree! I mean, I don't want half of it. Murong Group is a big business, as long as it can protect our food and clothing in the future, giving a little is fine. " Murong Aojie was an honest child to the bones, he was not as greedy as his mother.
"You good-for-nothing son, you really can't support yourself up the wall!" Fang Wenlan was in despair. She glared at her son and ran out of his sight.
Twenty minutes later, she reappeared with a folder.
At that moment, the family doctor came out of the bedroom.
It was a middle-aged man in his forties with a slightly plump body. He wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked very elegant. He had served the Mu Rong family for over ten years, so he could be considered the most trustworthy person in the Mu Rong family. He had always been in charge of his health, and this sudden attack had put him at a bit of a loss.
"Doctor, how is Master?" Fang Wenlan asked.
"Old master's will to survive is extremely strong. Earlier, even I had to give up. But now, he was fine. He was very weak and needed to rest. If you want to go in there, you'll need at least three hours. " There was no expression on the doctor's face. He didn't linger and headed downstairs.
Murong Aotian heaved a sigh of relief as he yawned and returned to his room.
Fang Wenlan glanced at the two bodyguards at the entrance of the bedroom, her long and narrow phoenix eyes narrowed dangerously.
The old man had come back from the dead end, and it was time for her to relax a little. However, his greed was not enough to swallow the elephant and the snake. How could his burning greed suddenly extinguish? She had already asked around from lawyers that Murong Ye still had not made a will. And from the lawyer's tone, he wouldn't do that in a short period of time. Then, if she could think of a way to get Murong Ye's fingerprint or signature, and then bribe the lawyer, then everything would belong to her son, Murong Aojie, in a hundred years time.
Her heart leaped at the thought, and an unprecedented excitement seized her.
Time passed second by second, everyone relaxed from their emergency situation and quickly revealed signs of fatigue. Even the nurse who was in charge of the shift was sitting and napping on the chair opposite the Old Master Murong. Although the two bodyguards were extremely fast in their training, a strange fragrance drifted over from somewhere, and within a few minutes, they were limply lying on the ground.
Fang Wenlan secretly changed into a nurse's uniform and snuck into Old Master Murong's bedroom.
In just a few minutes, she managed to steal the Lord's handprint and personal seal.
It was such an important matter, yet he didn't expect it to be settled so quickly! She walked out with great excitement, stealthily took the pot of chrysanthemums that was emitting a strange fragrance, and threw it into the trash can far away from the door.
When the sky was about to brighten, Murong Aotian returned, covered in dust.
After listening to the doctor's detailed account of his father's condition, his furrowed brow slowly relaxed.
"Just food poisoning can make me this strong?" Murong Aotian did not understand.
"The old master originally had a poison within his body. Perhaps it is due to the fact that it is relatively small, but I have never seen it in my previous blood tests. When the two toxins came into contact with each other, it would actually produce a chemical reaction that would result in a strong qualitative change due to the quantitative change in the poison. It's a good thing that the old master's health is good, and that he found out about it in time. That's why he managed to retrieve his life! " the doctor said.
"Poison? Someone poisoned him? " Murong Aotian gazed at the doctor with eyes as cold as ice. He trembled in fear.
"Probably." the doctor whispered.
Fang Wenlan did not miss a single word of what they had said.
Listening to the wall was a habit that she had developed over the years, probably because of the inferiority complex in her bones. She was very worried that people would talk about her or her bad words behind her back.
The sound of footsteps came closer. Fang Wenlan, who was still in a daze, forcefully pushed open the door before she even had the chance to close it.
Fang Wenlan lost her balance and almost fell to the ground. She steadied herself on the table and looked at Murong Aotian warily.
"What kind of medicine has the old man been taking recently?" Murong Aotian's eyes burned with flames, the awe-inspiring aura caused the surrounding air to instantly congeal into freezing points of air.
"Yes …" "It's some health care products." Fang Wenlan turned her head, she did not dare look at Murong Aotian.
"You want to give birth to a son and stabilize your position in Murong Family, right?" Murong Aotian sneered as he moved closer, a vortex of unknown meaning quickly flowing in his eyes.
"I... "I …" Fang Wenlan did not expect Murong Aotian to suddenly ask this, and was at a loss of words, not knowing how to answer.
"Do you still want a uterus?" Murong Aotian asked indifferently.
Fang Wenlan's legs went soft, and she kneeled on the ground with a 'plop'. When she looked up again, she was crying. The significance of the womb to a woman is self-evident. She had always known that Murong Aotian was someone who would keep his promises to achieve his goals. In the past, he didn't haggle with her because he thought that she didn't have the qualifications to be his opponent. Now that this matter had occurred, Murong Aotian had no reason to forgive her. An unprecedented fear seized her so fiercely that she was afraid to breathe.
"Please, I won't dare anymore. Those health products were brought back from abroad by my friends, they are all top brands, there won't be a problem. You must believe that I have no intention of harming my lord. I wanted him to live a hundred years longer than anyone else. I know you look down on me. In the Murong Family, I don't even have any status, and my existence can't threaten you! " Fang Wenlan choked with sobs as she recounted her grievances.
Murong Aotian had to expend a great deal of patience to finish listening to what she had to say.
"I just want to stay by the side of the old master in peace. There's nothing else I can ask for!" Even now, this reckless woman was still avoiding the point and avoiding the point.
"Is that so? Then how do you and the Director Zhang Li Dong colluded and explain this? " Murong Aotian caressed the thumb ring on his right hand, asking coldly.
"This... "This …" Fang Wenlan's face instantly lost all color.
"You wait till I send for your womb." Murong Aotian coldly turned around and quickly disappeared from Fang Wenlan's sight.
This Mu Rong Ao Tian was indeed a ruthless person, he took control of every move of hers. He was right. She was really anxious for a title. If a son couldn't get one, then a son could get another. Her heart is made of flesh, she didn't believe that the old master wouldn't give in. Some time ago she had gone to the hospital for an examination, and the doctor had said that all her tests were normal and that she could consider artificial insemination. Just as she was about to happily tell the old master the good news, the old master suddenly fell ill. He had only bought a few mutton skewers during his morning practice. How could things develop in such a dangerous direction?
He had been exposed, everything had been exposed!
Although Murong Aotian hated this woman to the bones, it was still enough for her. Just now, Housekeeper Li sent someone to investigate, but he was the one who planted the poison in her father's body, even though she did not know about it. As for the so-called health care products, she had obtained them all by himself. And that person was her first love all those years ago. They had been very close all these years. No matter what, she was still an elder, so not revealing her private feelings was already the greatest form of tolerance. But from his father's perspective, he really didn't want to give Fang Wenlan any chance to put on a green hat for her father. It was the safest and most harmless way to remove her womb.
She would hate him when the time came, but he didn't care.
After so many years, just how many people had he offended and how many people wanted his life in secret? What did it matter if one more person hated him?
But, even if a lot of people could be anyone, they absolutely could not be Su Wanbai. Thinking of this name, his heart that was as hard as steel suddenly became soft. Not only did the long parting not lessen his longing, but it was getting stronger and stronger.
