Sheng Shaoyou didn't expect that he and Hua Yong would meet again so soon.
Sheng Fang's condition was not very stable, so Chen Pinming roughly conveyed the doctor's judgment to Sheng Shaoyou in the afternoon. - The doctor said:
Sheng Fang doesn't have much time left.
Sheng Shaoyou looked calm, as if he had just listened to a very ordinary feedback report, and said calmly: "I understand."
But within a few hours, he left the company early.
Sheng Shaoyou has been working overtime almost every day recently and leaves the company before the end of get off work time, which is very abnormal.
After getting into the car, the personal driver who had been following him for a long time asked him quietly about the destination.
Sheng Shaoyou closed his eyes tiredly and said, "Heci."
Heci Hospital is not far from Shengfang Biotechnology by car.
Twenty minutes later, Sheng Shaoyou walked into the gate of Heci alone.
He met Hua Yong in the elevator.
Hua Yong was surprised to see him, and his eyes widened. But Sheng Shaoyou pretended not to see him, and after the elevator stopped, he pressed the top button without looking away.
Hua Yong was not alone. There was a doctor in a white coat talking to him.
Sheng Shaoyou didn't pay much attention to the conversation, but the elevator was so small that he could hear their conversation clearly.
The doctor was talking about the cost of the operation.
"——The 200,000 you just paid is far from enough.
You need to prepay at least 600,000. Otherwise, bed 291——" The doctor paused, and seemed to feel that it was too inhumane to refer to the patient by bed number in front of the family, so he changed the way he said, "——Otherwise, your sister's surgery will have to be postponed…" The doctor's words made the pale face turn red all of a sudden. Perhaps she was ashamed of being seen by Sheng Shaoyou again in her embarrassment, or perhaps not.
After a long silence, Hua Yong stammered and discussed with the doctor: "Can I have the surgery first and pay the fee later?" He knew that it was unreasonable to ask such a request in a private hospital, but he really had no choice but to promise the doctor again and again, saying: "I promise, I will try my best to get the money together as soon as possible."
The doctor looked embarrassed, but still firmly rejected him: "I'm sorry, sir, I sympathize with your situation, but this does not comply with the regulations of our hospital. I'm sorry, I can't do anything about it.
Sorry…" Out of the corner of his eye, Sheng Shaoyou saw Hua Yong lowering his head and guessed that he was going to cry again.
"…" Huh? Tried every possible way? If he really had tried every possible way, how could he not even come up with such a small amount of money? He had such a face for nothing. Aren't you good at flirting with Shen Wenlang?
Go ahead, just grab a watch from Shen Wenlang's wrist, and the amount will be higher than this… Hua Yong followed the doctor and got off the elevator on the third floor. His back looked thin and miserable.
Sheng Shaoyou suddenly remembered that the first time he and Hua Yong met was in the children's ward on the third floor. At that time, Hua Yong seemed to be crying because he couldn't raise the money for the operation.
My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the elevator door opening. ——We have reached the top floor.
There was no one in the Shengfang ward except a young beta nurse.
Sheng Shaoqing and his group's show-like visit was as lowly as their origins. Without an audience, they gave up and were too lazy to continue.
On the hospital bed, Sheng Fang, with a sick face, wore an oxygen mask and slept weakly. In the past year, he had been awake very little, almost not at all.
The nurse was busy coming in and out, serving tea and water, and even prepared some sliced fruit for Sheng Shaoyou, which was carefully presented on the plate and was no worse than those sold outside.
But Sheng Shaoyou has always been very sensitive to flattery. The other side of "flattery" is "obtaining". He hates all kinds of faces that want to get benefits from him.
With an expressionless face, he asked the nurse to leave and sat on the chair at the head of Sheng Fang's bed. Sheng Shaoyou silently looked at the white hair on Sheng Fang's temples and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. For the first time, he deeply felt aging and death.
Vitality is gradually draining away from the body before my eyes at a speed and in a form that is difficult to detect with the naked eye.
Shengfang has grown old and is sick, and perhaps soon he will die of illness one day in the near future.
Sheng Shaoyou recalled the situation the night before Sheng Fang's tumor surgery.
Sheng Fang talked to all the children for a while and explained many things. But in the end, Sheng Shaoyou was the only one left in the ward to accompany him.
He was in good spirits, his voice was strong, and from his appearance he didn't look terminally ill at all.
Only his eyes revealed a little hesitation and tenderness that were rarely seen in the past.
Sheng Fang stared silently at the young Alpha heir in front of him.
Tall, handsome, S-level pheromones....
Hardworking, motivated, diligent, and extremely keen on business trends… This is his blooming son, the bloodline he left in the world, and the only and most proud product of his strict educational principles.
Looking at Sheng Shaoyou's cold, almost indifferent expression, Sheng Fang asked a question.
"Shaoyou, do you hate me very much?"
He asked very directly. This was a question that had been lingering in his mind for many years. In the face of the imminent death, it flowed out of his throat calmly, just like when he asked his wife in Sheng Fang: "Will you marry me?" and promised her: "I will treat you well all my life."
He knew that his wife loved him and would definitely marry him, so he was calm and not panicked.
Just like now, Sheng Fang knew that Sheng Shaoyou must hate him, so he didn't feel nervous.
Sheng Shaoyou lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Sheng Fang waited for him patiently for a long time but didn't get any answer.
——Sheng Shaoyou kindly refused to answer.
But silence itself is the answer.
Sheng Fang did not urge him, because whether it was or not, it no longer had any practical significance.
He put away his rare sensitivity and fragility and turned to talk to Sheng Shaoyou about the more practical issue of inheritance.
Ask him: "Dad will leave the company to you, okay?"
Sheng Shaoyou's expression remained unchanged as he asked calmly, "What about Sheng Shaoqing and the others?"
If the existence of illegitimate children is the biggest gap between father and son, then Sheng Shaoqing, who is only two years younger than Sheng Shaoyou, is the one that is particularly big among them.
Sheng Shaoyou's mother died early, and Sheng Fang's other children could only be considered "illegitimate" at best. But Sheng Shaoqing was different, and his existence directly proved that Sheng Fang was unfaithful to his original wife.
"You don't have to worry about that at all. I left a cash trust."
Sheng Fang completely recovered his decisive and murderous personality and made an objective assessment: "Shaoqing and the others only know how to eat, drink and have fun, how can they understand how to run a company…" He looked at Sheng Shaoyou as if he was appreciating a piece of art he had created himself, "Shaoyou, compared to your younger brothers and sisters, Dad is indeed very strict with you, but in my mind, there has always been only you as the heir -" He strictly educates the children born to his original wife, but spoils and neglects the illegitimate children born to his concubine.
Sheng Fang thought he had foresight and plans, but he never thought that a loser would not stop thinking about the throne inlaid with gems just because he was a loser.
… Coming out of the ward, Sheng Shaoyou got into the elevator, and when the elevator reached the third floor, it stopped again.
The elevator door slowly opened and Hua Yong stood outside alone, feeling distraught.
I looked up and saw Sheng Shaoyou in the elevator.
There was obvious hesitation on his pale face, as if he was wondering whether to go in.
Just as the elevator door was about to close, someone reached out and stopped it.
The elevator made a warning sound, and Sheng Shaoyou, who was blocking the door, frowned and urged him impatiently, "Why don't you come up quickly?"
Hua Yong then stepped into the elevator in a daze.
But even after entering the same elevator, he still did not take the initiative to talk to Sheng Shaoyou. He stood in front with his head lowered, leaning weakly against the elevator wall, without saying a word.
This attitude of turning a blind eye to the "lifesaver" made Sheng Shaoyou very unhappy. He stared at the Omega's back with burning eyes for a long time before he said coldly, "What a coincidence."
Hua Yong, who was trying to reduce her presence and pretend to be invisible, didn't expect Sheng Shaoyou to take the initiative to say hello. She turned around in surprise and found that the other party was staring at her coldly.
He forced a smile and said, "Yes, Mr. Sheng, what a coincidence."
Hua Yong lowered her eyes and looked at her toes, looking absent-minded, but out of politeness she had to greet him and asked, "I heard that Mr. Sheng's father is also in the hospital at Heci. Are you here to see him?"
The founder of Shengfang Biotechnology was in the hospital. This was financial news that appeared in the newspapers. Hua Yong was really not good at finding topics to talk about. At this time, even asking Sheng Shaoyou whether he had received the cufflinks was better than directly mentioning the fact that Shengfang was in the hospital.
Sheng Shaoyou's expression turned obviously worse, his eyes were cold as if to say: What's it got to do with you?
The little Omega raised his head and glanced at him quickly, as if he was very annoyed at his own rudeness and accidentally touched Sheng Shaoyou's sore spot.
He pursed his lips and lowered his eyes, with obvious guilt on his pale face. He must have guessed that Sheng Shaoyou's father was in poor health and regretted that he should not have mentioned it.
Sheng Shaoyou thought coldly.
This Omega who couldn't read other people's expressions should have sensed that every time they met, he had more or less stepped on his minefield.
"I just asked casually, I didn't mean anything else.
I'm sorry to make you sad—" "——Sad?" Sheng Shaoyou crossed his arms and looked down at him: "Why should I be sad? I'm not the one who can't pay for the treatment."
After saying this, Sheng Shaoyou was stunned. He was a person who was very good at hiding his emotions and rarely showed harshness and unreasonableness on his face, but for some reason, Hua Yong always made him break his rules.
The weak Omega was caught off guard and suddenly felt the pain. He looked up at him in disbelief.
"What? Did I say something wrong?"
Oh no. Are you going to cry again?
Sheng Shaoyou found that this weak Omega, who was full of the scent of white orchid and had an innocent and pitiful face, could easily make his emotions out of control, causing him to lose control of his reason and make childish provocations just to say a few more words to him.
"You're right." Hua Yong didn't cry, but her expression turned disappointed: "It's just that I didn't expect such uneducated words to come out of Mr.
Sheng's mouth."
Sheng Shaoyou's heart twitched violently, as if he was slapped in the face in public. He was so angry that his teeth itched, but he didn't know who he was hating.
He could only remain indifferent and said with a stern face: "No matter how uneducated he is, he is better than an Omega like you who has no money, is poor, and has no self-esteem."
It is true that he is poor and has no money, but why do you say he has no self-esteem? ! Hua Yong is like a mermaid whose tail has been stepped on, with anger and helpless sadness on her pretty face.
"you—" Only then did Sheng Shaoyou notice that Hua Yong was actually very tall, not even shorter than Sheng Shaoyou, the top Alpha.
But what's the use of being tall? Aren't you still a weak Omega who can only rely on Alpha to survive?
Sheng Shaoyou put his hands in his pockets, but clenched his fists and said coldly: "It seems that the treatment of HS Group employees is not very good. As Shen Wenlang's personal secretary, Secretary Hua goes to work in the office building in the morning, flirts in the boss's office in the evening, and runs to the entertainment venue to sell wine at night. She works so hard, but she can't get together a mere 600,000?…" As he said this, he smiled contemptuously, raised his eyebrows and commented unceremoniously: "Shen Wenlang is really stingy with you."
Hua Yong was stunned for a moment, his pupils trembling. He tried very hard to calm down, his voice shaking unconsciously, "Mr. Sheng, I don't know what has stimulated you today, but if these words that hurt me can bring you the pleasure of healing your wounds and a sense of superiority, then I don't mind being the object of your venting!"
With a "ding" sound, the elevator door opened.
Hua Yong walked out without looking back: "—— Just consider it as a reward for you saving me that day at Tiandihui!"
Sheng Shaoyou watched him storm out of the elevator and suddenly laughed for no apparent reason.
Do you mind being the object of my venting?
Does this weak Omega with a strong scent of white orchid know what he is talking about? !
But unlike what I imagined, he was quite fierce…
