C122 – A Filial Son!New novel chapters are published on
What kind of man is Wang Guohui?
Despite nearly facing bankruptcy, he remained remarkably composed. Yet, upon hearing his mother’s words, he secluded himself in a corner and wept bitterly.
His mother had endured great hardships in her youth, alongside him.
Now, he could do nothing but watch helplessly as she inched closer to death.
The situation was utterly despairing. Wang Guohui had wealth, but his money was powerless to fix this. For the first time, he felt a profound sense of helplessness.
The doctors pinpointed a severe lung infection as the critical issue. If the infection could be cured, the other health problems could be managed over time, posing no significant threat. However, the difficulty of treating the infection was immense.
Then came the news that President Chen had also suffered from a lung infection but had been discharged from the hospital overnight.
Subsequent examinations showed that President Chen was in better health than before, with many of his old ailments having disappeared.
Wang Guohui sought out the doctor personally. The doctor was startled upon seeing him and uttered words that plunged Wang Guohui into deeper despair.
“Mr. Wang, the details of this are known only to President Chen. We are as much in the dark as you are.”
Hearing this, Wang Guohui felt a twinge of despair mixed with a glimmer of hope.
Without a second thought, he located President Chen’s number and called him directly.
“President Chen, my mother’s condition is critical and cannot wait. Rest assured, whatever your terms, I am prepared to meet them.”
Wang Guohui’s desperation was clear; he would relinquish his chairmanship without a second thought if President Chen so desired.
However, President Chen had made a promise to Mr. Su to keep the information confidential, which put him in a difficult position.
Wang Guohui grew increasingly anxious.
“President Chen, where are you? I’ll come to you immediately. I’m ready to offer you 10% of our company’s shares. I can even transfer all our trade stocks to your bank,” Wang Guohui persisted.
“If it’s money you want, I’m willing to provide whatever I can. And if that’s not enough, I’m prepared to step down as chairman in your favor. What do you say?”
Wang Guohui was prepared to go to any length.
Wang Guohui’s devotion to his mother was undeniable; he couldn’t refuse to help.
President Chen knew that if Wang Guohui were there in person, he might even kneel in plea.
Moved by Wang Guohui’s filial piety, President Chen resolved to assist him this once.
With determination, President Chen approached Su Ming.
“Mr. Su, there’s something I need to discuss with you.”
President Chen reached Su Ming’s side, pausing with uncertainty.
Su Ming’s eyes opened slowly. “What’s the matter?”
Anxious, President Chen fidgeted, took a moment to gather his courage, and finally asked with resolve, “Mr. Su, do you have any more of that black water?”
President Chen might have sensed a hint of greed in his own tone, as if he were asking for a favor, so he quickly laid out the entire situation.
“Mr. Su, please don’t get the wrong idea. I’m not after this item for myself. You’re familiar with Angel Group, aren’t you? Its chairman, Wang Guohui, is the one requesting this medication for his mother.”
After listening to the explanation, Su Ming blinked in understanding.
He was aware of Angel Group, being a local enterprise in Eastsea City. Yet, despite its lack of widespread renown, he didn’t have a deep knowledge of the company, nor did he know Wang Guohui personally.
However, Wang Guohui’s devotion to his mother struck a chord with Su Ming, considering his own parents were also in good health.
He pondered that if he ever found himself in a situation similar to Wang Guohui’s, he might well make the same decisions.
A successful son showing such profound respect and care for his mother was indeed commendable.
“So, it’s like that. Wang Guohui learned about your situation and now he’s hoping I can lend a hand, correct?”
“Exactly,” President Chen confirmed eagerly. “And he’s prepared to meet any terms you set—be it shares, cash, or even offering you the chairman’s seat.”
President Chen was well aware that Su Ming wasn’t in need of money. With a prime real estate parcel in the city center valued at ten billion yuan and the means to purchase five hundred luxury cars, financial concerns were the least of his worries.
Nevertheless, it was crucial to communicate the offer Wang Guohui had made.
Whether or not Su Ming was interested in the rewards was his prerogative, but the willingness of Wang Guohui to provide them was a clear indication of his intent, and President Chen felt obligated to convey that.
