Upon hearing this, the assistant felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He forced back his tears and repeatedly thanked the expert, begging him to do his utmost.

When Lu Mingjin learned that her father had fallen into a coma, her face was filled with anxiety and worry.

He stood by Lu Jingmo's bedside, his little hand tightly gripping his father's big hand, repeatedly calling out, "Daddy, wake up..."

That childish voice, tinged with tears, moved everyone who heard it.

However, Lu Yunchang did not give up.

He considered himself to be of the same generation as Lu Jingmo and to be Lu Mingjin's uncle, yet he shamelessly came to the hospital again.

Upon entering the ward, he arrogantly told his assistant, "Immediately suspend all treatment for Lu Jingmo. In his current state, he's a bottomless pit; continuing treatment will only be a waste of money."

"It would be better to save the money and invest it in the company, and let me take over. Maybe I can save the Lu family business."

The assistant looked at Lu Yunchang with eyes full of anger and contempt.

"Lu Yunchang, how could you say such a thing? Mr. Lu is your family, yet you're thinking of abandoning him when he's in his most difficult time. Have you lost your conscience?"

"It is our shared responsibility to save President Lu, and it is also for the future of the Lu family. Stop daydreaming. You are not welcome here. Please leave immediately!"

Lu Yunchang's face turned pale and then red after being scolded. He jumped up and down in anger and embarrassment, saying, "You little assistant, how dare you lecture me!"

"I'm doing all this for the Lu family. Lu Jingmo is in such a state now that he's completely hopeless. Throwing money at him is just a waste of money!"

As he spoke, he reached out to unplug the medical cables connected to Lu Jingmo's body.

Seeing this, the assistant reacted quickly, grabbing Lu Yunchang's wrist and forcefully shaking him off, shouting, "You dare! If you do anything reckless again, I'll really call the police!"

Lu Yunchang was thrown off balance and staggered. After regaining his footing, he pointed at his assistant, too angry to speak.

At that moment, the door to the ward was suddenly pushed open, and several elders of the Lu Group walked in.

They had already heard that Lu Yunchang was causing trouble at the hospital, so they came to find out what was going on.

The leader, Director Wang, looked at Lu Yunchang with a furrowed brow and questioned, "Lu Yunchang, what are you doing here?"

“Jingmo is the backbone of our group. We are all heartbroken that he had an accident, but you are trying to take advantage of the situation and obstruct his treatment. What are your intentions?”

Another director, Mr. Li, chimed in, "That's right. Can't you see how much effort Jingmo has put into the Lu family over the years?"

"He's in trouble now, and instead of helping him, you're causing trouble. That's outrageous!"

Looking at these elders, Lu Yunchang felt a little intimidated, but he still forced himself to say, "What do you know? I'm thinking about the bigger picture. The Lu family can't be ruined because of him alone!"

Director Wang snorted coldly.

"Considering the bigger picture? You're clearly acting in your own self-interest! We've already decided that no matter the cost, we will cure Jingmo."

"As for the company's affairs, we, the elders, will handle them for the time being. It's not your place to interfere, you outsider."

Lu Yunchang wanted to argue, but the gazes of the elders forced him to back down. He could only turn and leave dejectedly, muttering to himself.

"Just you wait, you'll regret this..."

The elders comforted the assistant for a few moments, then gathered around Lu Jingmo's bedside, looking at him unconscious, and shook their heads and sighed.

Director Wang gently patted Lu Jingmo's shoulder and whispered, "Jingmo, you must get well soon. The Lu family is waiting for you..."

Seeing the elders' actions, the assistant felt a warmth in his heart. He secretly vowed to protect Lu Jingmo and prevent him from being harmed by villains. He vowed to revitalize the Lu family when Lu Jingmo woke up.

To make it easier to care for them, the assistant carefully arranged for Lu Jingmo and Ning Yao's hospital rooms to be right next to each other.

This way, he could move back and forth between the two wards and keep track of their conditions.

During this period, Lu Mingjin stayed at the hospital almost every step of the way, her small figure shuttling between the two wards.

Seeing that Lu Jingmo was unconscious and Ning Yao was also lying in a hospital bed, Lu Yunchang felt that the time was right and began to make moves to try to seize Lu Jingmo's company.

He knew that although Lu Mingjin was a minor, as Lu Jingmo's son, he played a key role in the inheritance, so he pretended to get close to Lu Mingjin.

That day, Lu Yunchang found Lu Mingjin resting alone outside the ward, his face full of fake smiles, and spoke insincerely.

“Mingjin, your father is in such a state now, the company can’t be left unattended. Your uncle is doing this for your own good. As long as you sign this document, your uncle promises to manage the company in an orderly manner and will take good care of you in the future.”

As he spoke, he took out a document and handed it to Lu Mingjin.

Although Lu Mingjin was young, she knew in her heart that Lu Yunchang had ill intentions.

He pushed the document away with his little hand and said righteously, "I won't sign it! Dad said we can't hand the company over to bad people. You're a bad person, and I won't let you get away with it!"

When Lu Yunchang saw that his gentle approach wasn't working, his face instantly darkened, and he roared angrily, "You little brat, don't be stubborn! You'll have to sign this today, whether you like it or not!"

As he spoke, he raised his hand and slapped Lu Mingjin across the face.

Lu Mingjin was hit and fell to the ground, crying loudly in pain: "Waaah... Why did you hit me? You're such a bad guy!"

The crying was particularly jarring in the quiet corridor and reached Ning Yao's ward.

Ning Yao, who had been unconscious for a long time, seemed to be pulled by the crying, and slowly regained a sliver of clarity.

Her eyelids twitched, and she slowly opened her eyes.

At this moment, her memory of what had happened earlier was hazy. Relying only on instinct, she struggled to get up when she heard the child crying and walked towards the source of the sound.

Ning Yao stumbled to Lu Mingjin's side and saw Lu Yunchang standing to the side. Thinking that he was going to hurt Lu Mingjin, she instinctively shielded Lu Mingjin behind her.

"You're not allowed to hurt my son! Who are you, and why are you bullying him?"

Lu Yunchang was caught off guard by Ning Yao's sudden awakening and panicked for a moment, but he quickly calmed down and began to curse loudly.

"Ning Yao, don't be ungrateful! This company should have been mine all along. You're all about to die, yet you still cling to it! Today, I'm taking this company!"

Hearing the commotion, the assistant rushed over and was both surprised and delighted to see Ning Yao awake. Her eyes instantly welled up with tears: "President Ning, you're finally awake!"

Upon hearing Lu Yunchang's words, anger surged within him instantly.

He stood next to Ning Yao, looked coldly at Lu Yunchang, and said, "Lu Yunchang, you've gone too far! This is a hospital, not a place for you to run wild."

"Ning Yao is awake. Company matters are naturally her and President Lu's responsibility. It's none of your business as an outsider. Please leave immediately, or I'll call security!"

Lu Yunchang wanted to argue, so he took a step forward and said fiercely, "Don't be arrogant. I'm determined to get this company. No one can stop me today!"

Undeterred, the assistant stepped forward to block Ning Yao and Lu Mingjin, shouting, "If you don't leave, I'll call the police right now!"
