Financial freedom starts with the pursuit of a cool female doctor

Chapter 115 Chen Qiuhong

"Good boss."

Qi Shuangxue quickly jotted down the new schedule in her notebook, then placed the second set of documents in front of Zhuo Tong:

"Boss, this is a revised draft of the acquisition agreement and the company's articles of association. Please take a look."

Zhuo Tong hummed in agreement and picked it up casually. After looking at it for a short while, his eyes lit up.

After adding her own annotations to the original document, Qi Shuangxue had completely revised the previous version.

The second version I have now has almost no major or obvious problems.

Only a few minor issues remain, which can be easily adjusted.

"You changed all of these yourself?"

Qi Shuangxue sensed the doubt in her boss's tone and instantly became somewhat apprehensive, but she could only bite the bullet and answer:

"Yes...yes, but I used a template from the internet."

How much time has passed? Exactly one day. Even just copying someone else's template wouldn't be this fast.

It's easy to imagine how much thought she put into this matter last night.

"This is really well written, much better than last time. You've improved a lot. I like smart girls."

"Hehe~ Thank you for the compliment, boss. I will continue to work hard."

"There's nothing wrong with it. You can send it to Wang Wei and Brother Tao so they can take a look and do some minor editing."

"Good boss!"

Upon receiving Zhuo Tong's affirmation and recognition of her work, Qi Shuangxue seemed to be injected with adrenaline and appeared somewhat excited.

He walked briskly, with an irrepressible smug smile on his face.

Just as she was tidying up her desk and reorganizing the documents, Zhuo Tong received another phone call.

Zhuo Tong, who was originally easygoing, straightened up a bit when she saw the phone number's contact name.

"Hey, Dr. Bai... What!"

Zhuo Tong exclaimed in surprise, startling Qi Shuangxue. It was the first time she had ever seen her boss show such shock and seriousness.

"I understand, I'll be there now."

Zhuo Tong stood up and, without even saying anything, pulled Qi Shuangxue towards the door.

Holding the documents she had just packed, she was somewhat puzzled:
"What's wrong with the boss?!"

"To the hospital, quick, my mom's awake!"

Qi Shuangxue gasped, then nodded and quickened her pace.

I had already learned from Wang Ying that Zhuo Tong's mother had been in a coma and hospitalized due to coronary heart disease, and had just undergone surgery recently.

Now that his mother has finally woken up, the boss must be very excited and happy, and can't wait to rush to the ward to see his mother.

As the assistant and driver, I can't let you down at a time like this!

After getting in the car, Qi Shuangxue immediately started driving at full speed in the city, afraid of wasting even half a second.

This Maybach Haute voiture has a V12 engine, which allows for a fast start and powerful acceleration; otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to get to the hospital so quickly.

Of course, a sports car could be even faster, but Zhuo Tong only has this one car right now.

Upon arriving at the hospital, Zhuo Tong told Qi Shuangxue to find a parking spot by herself while he sped towards his mother's ward.

But as he entered, he suddenly stopped.

He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, and then slowly pushed open the door.

Bright sunlight streamed obliquely into the hospital room through the window. The mother, Chen Qiuhong, lay on the bed, her face turned to look at her daughter, Zhuo Lingshan, beside her. It was unclear what Zhuo Lingshan said, but the two smiled at each other.

But seeing the wrinkles around her mother's eyes and mouth, Zhuo Tong couldn't help but say in a trembling voice:

"mom……"

Chen Qiuhong and Zhuo Lingshan turned around together, and the latter stood up excitedly:
"Brother! Why are you so late? It's so late. Mom has been awake for ages."

"You've worked so hard these past few days, staying by my side in the ward."

Zhuo Tong patted her sister's head to appease her, and then sat down by her bedside under her mother's watchful eye.

He reached out his hand, as if to say something, but his voice choked as he spoke.

Instead, Chen Qiuhong used her trembling hands, still attached to an IV drip, to cover Zhuo Tong's hands:

"Thank you for taking care of me during this time, Ling Shan. I'm sorry for holding you back."

"That's nonsense. I won't allow you to talk like that. You took care of us as we grew up, and now we're taking care of you. It's perfectly normal."

Chen Qiuhong gently patted up and down with her five fingers:
“Ling Shan told me that the surgery alone will cost 50,000 yuan, plus hospitalization and medical expenses. That’s a considerable expense.”

“You borrowed a lot of money from Xiao Tao, didn’t you? Once I’m discharged from the hospital, I’ll find a job. We can’t keep owing people money, after all, Xiao Tao has a family.”

Although she wore a smile, her eyes held deep worry and sorrow.

I've been sick for so long, I don't know how much money I've spent.

After Zhuo Tong's father passed away, the family relied entirely on Zhuo Tong to barely make ends meet. Not only could he not help, but he also fell ill.

That guilt was like a nest of ants, gnawing at my heart every moment since I woke up, causing waves of pain.

"Don't worry, I've paid back all of Atao's money. I don't have any debts now."

"How is this possible! You... cough cough..."

Chen Qiuhong was clearly not so easily convinced, and raised her voice with a questioning tone, which inadvertently caused her to cough repeatedly.

"Mom, lie down first, and speak slowly. Ling Shan and I are here, so there's no rush. We have plenty of time."

Zhuo Tong and Zhuo Lingshan each held one of Chen Qiuhong's hands, gradually putting her at ease.

"Your job...shouldn't pay that much! You better tell your mother the truth, you can't do those dangerous things!"

Chen Qiuhong spoke earnestly, fearing that her son might one day be caught making quick money.

"Oh dear, Mom, why don't you listen to me? I've told you so many times, my brother has a legitimate business now, he owns a hotel."

"A hotel? That's not illegal, is it?"

"Don't worry, there's absolutely no problem, and it's not a small-scale operation either."

Seeing his two children speaking so confidently, and seeing Zhuo Tong dressed so smartly, it was clear that life was indeed much better than before.

"Good...that's good. My son has finally made something of himself...It was all your parents' fault back then, otherwise you wouldn't be like this now..."

"Mom, it's been four years, let's not bring it up again. Let's just live a peaceful life as a family."

Zhuo Lingshan leaned over the headboard and said with a smile:

"Yes, Mom, my brother is really rich now. He even bought us a new house."

"You! If you have money, why don't you save it? Why are you buying a house at a time like this?"

Chen Qiuhong paused, as if she had thought of something, and tentatively asked:

"Could it be... that I'm going to be a mother-in-law?"
