She goes crazy, he'll cover for her; the darling of the group is someone no one dares to mess w

The directors who supported Han Shuo's expression changed drastically, staring nervously at the blank ballot that Han Xi had placed on the table.

Han Yi clenched his fists again, his knuckles turning white, and his breathing became rapid.

Han Xi ignored the crowd's comments and slowly picked up the pen.

The silver-gray pen tip hovered above the paper, reflecting the cold light in his eyes.

Once this stroke is made, Han Shuo's fate will be completely rewritten.

"Wait!" Han Yi stood up nervously.

Han Xi ignored him completely, and the pen in his hand had already fallen to the ground.

Han Yi gritted his teeth, but just as the pen was about to touch the paper, the conference room door was suddenly pushed open.

All eyes turned to him.

Jiang Bei rushed in, panting, his usually calm face showing a hint of panic. He said, "Boss! Something terrible has happened! The old man... he's in trouble!"

"What did you say?"

Han Xi frowned, and as he stood up, the pen in his hand clattered onto the table.

Jiangbei: "We just received news from the old house that the person has been sent to the International Medical Center and is currently undergoing emergency treatment."

"..."

Han Xi remained silent, then his gaze shot towards Han Yi like a sharp sword.

The latter's face turned deathly pale instantly, and he subconsciously took half a step back, his eyes darting away.

Han Xi's gaze was so intense it could kill, but he didn't say a word and turned to leave.

As he passed by Jiangbei, he kept walking: "Prepare the car, we're going to the Central Hospital."

"Yes!"

Jiangbei immediately followed.

The people in the conference room looked at each other in disbelief; no one had expected such a thing to happen so suddenly.

Han Ming and Han Yi exchanged a glance, both seeing panic in each other's eyes, and quickly got up to chase after them.

The emergency building of the central hospital was brightly lit, and the corridors were crowded with people.

The Han family's bodyguards, dressed in black suits, stood expressionless at the entrance to the emergency room, keeping the onlookers, patients, and their families out.

Shen Ruyan sat on the bench, her eyes red-rimmed, clutching her phone tightly in her hand.

Han Chunxi stood beside her, constantly comforting her, her own eyes red.

Seeing Han Xi enter, Shen Ruyan immediately stood up, her voice trembling with tears: "Xiujin, you're finally here! The doctor said Grandpa's condition isn't good..."

"what happened?"

Han Xi supported her arm, his gaze sweeping over the tightly closed emergency room door, the red light on the door glaringly bright.

"It was the housekeeper who made the call."

Shen Ruyan choked up as she said, "Grandpa was fine at noon. After lunch, he took a nap, and when he got up, he went for a walk in the yard. I don't know how, but he suddenly fainted. When the maid found him, he was already unconscious, so she quickly called an ambulance..."

Fang Li stood up from the bench, walked to Han Xi's side, and gently took his hand.

His palms were icy cold and sticky with sweat.

She could feel the trembling in his fingertips; even this usually calm and composed man was now unable to hide his panic.

"Don't worry, Grandpa will be alright."

Fang Li's voice was soft, yet it carried a comforting power.

Han Xi gripped her hand tightly with his own, so hard he almost crushed her bones, but then slowly released her grip after realizing what he was doing.

He took a deep breath and walked up to the bodyguards who had brought the old man to the hospital: "Explain clearly what exactly happened back then."

The lead bodyguard quickly stepped forward and reported with his head bowed: "Reporting to President Han, we were patrolling outside the courtyard wall as per regulations. Only Zhang Ma was with the old man in the courtyard. At around 3:15 pm, Zhang Ma suddenly ran out and said that the old man had fainted. When we went in, the old man was lying under the crabapple tree, still clutching his phone in his hand."

Where is Li Duo?

"They said there was something going on at the military headquarters and they had to leave temporarily."

"Where is Grandpa's phone?" Han Xi pressed.

The bodyguard quickly pulled a black cell phone from his pocket, its casing still covered in dirt: "It's here, and it's turned off."

Han Xi took the phone, pressed the power button, and the screen lit up.

He skillfully unlocked the screen, opened the call log, and the latest one was from 3:10 pm, from an unknown number without a name, and the location was shown as a virtual operator.

"Jiangbei".

Han Xi handed over the phone, his eyes cold. "Find out the source of this number and the content of the calls."

"Yes!"

Jiang Bei took the phone, immediately took out his own device and started operating it, his fingers quickly swiping across the screen.

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from the end of the corridor.

Han Ming, Han Yi, and Han Shuo walked over quickly, all three of them looking very grim.

Han Shuo's suit jacket was unbuttoned and his tie was askew, clearly indicating that he had rushed over.

"How is he? How is Dad?"

Han Ming grabbed a nurse's arm and asked anxiously.

The nurse was startled and quickly said, "He's still being resuscitated. You'll have to ask the doctor for details."

Han Yi and Han Shuo walked to the door of the emergency room, staring at the glaring red light, neither of them spoke.

But anyone with eyes could see that Han Yi's fingers were trembling slightly, while Han Shuo's eyes held a barely perceptible hint of gloom.

Fang Li saw all of this and felt a slight tightness in her heart.

She didn't speak, but quietly tugged at Han Xi's sleeve. Han Xi looked at her with a dark expression, but didn't say anything, only tightened his grip on her hand.

But the unspoken understanding between the two already speaks volumes.

Fang Li lowered her eyes and sighed almost imperceptibly.

at this time.

The door to the emergency room suddenly opened a crack, and a doctor in green surgical scrubs came out, took off his mask, and revealed Chen Yingsheng's tired face: "He has been saved."

"How about it?!"

Han Ming immediately stepped forward.

"Grandpa Han suffered a sudden myocardial infarction."

Chen Yingsheng's voice was hoarse, "We have already done emergency treatment and he is temporarily out of danger, but he is still in a coma and needs to be admitted to the ICU for further observation."

"Thank you! You've worked so hard, Xiao Chen!" Shen Ruyan was so moved she almost cried.

"It's nothing, it's what I should do."

Chen Yingsheng nodded, gave a few more instructions, and then turned and went back to the emergency room.

Soon, the nurse who was pushing the hospital bed came out. Han Guodong was lying on the bed, his face as pale as paper, with an oxygen tube in his nose, and his chest rising and falling weakly.

Everyone instinctively held their breath as they watched the hospital bed being wheeled into the ICU.

The heavy glass door slowly closed, isolating the patient inside from the outside world.

"Alright, everyone, go back now."

Han Ming turned around, his voice weary, "Just leave two people here to guard this place. I'll let everyone know if there's any news."

"I'll stay," Han Xi said.

“I’ll stay too,” Fang Li said immediately.

Han Ming glanced at them and nodded: "Then you should take care of yourselves and not overwork yourselves."

He then looked at Han Yi and Han Shuo, "You two should go back too, you still have things to take care of at the company."

Han Yi and Han Shuo exchanged a glance, said nothing, and turned to leave.

When Han Shuo left, he glanced back in the direction of the ICU, and no one could understand the look and meaning in his eyes.
