Xia Tingwan said, "Perhaps this is the only way."

"We'll do our best to maintain the Xia family's situation, as long as we can hold on until Grandpa recovers."

"With him in charge, the Xia family might still be saved. If he lives a few more years, and Xiao Rou gives birth to another boy..."

Xia Xueyi's voice was hoarse: "But the risk is too great."

He thought Xia Tingwan would persuade him.

To everyone's surprise, she nodded decisively and said, "Yes, let's think of another way."

Xia Xueyi was taken aback and asked, "Then what other options are there?"

Xia Tingwan said, "I haven't thought of anything yet."

Xia Xueyi paced back and forth anxiously.

The heels of the leather shoes tapped against the wooden floor, making a dull sound.

Just then, his phone rang.

It was a call from the sanatorium.

The dean said that Xia Ziqiang had relapsed. Although he has been rescued, the old man's condition is not optimistic.

We should try our best to keep his emotions stable in the future.

Otherwise, if this situation occurs again, it may not be possible to save them.

After hanging up the phone, Xia Xueyi stared at the ceiling for a few seconds before finally making up his mind.

He slammed his hand on the table: "Since the old man is already like this, let's take a gamble."

Consider it a way to make use of waste.

They're just lying in the sanatorium all day, which is a waste of resources.

However, there is still one problem.

Xia Wenshan has been the one contacting Sun Hao.

Xia Wenshan's phone was submerged in water for a day and a night, and it was beyond saving.

He assigned someone to handle it, but there's still no news.

Oh, right, Niu Bin knew about it too, but he was finished as well.

Xia Xueyi's mind was in a mess, and he couldn't think of a way to contact Sun Hao for the time being.

He suddenly looked at Xia Tingwan: "I remember my brother mentioning before that your ex-boyfriend was involved with Sun Hao."

"You call him from here and see if you can get in touch with Sun Hao."

Xia Tingwan nodded: "Okay."

She picked up her phone and dialed a number; the call was quickly answered.

Xia Tingwan spoke first: "Brother, my second uncle asked me to ask you if it's possible to arrange for someone to perform the surgery now. Can you contact Sun Hao?"

After many days, Lin Jianshen finally heard Xia Tingwan's voice.

He held the phone, his fingers trembling slightly.

It is said that when you forget someone, the first thing you forget is their flaws, and then their voice.

In Lin Jianshen's eyes, Xia Tingwan had no flaws, so there was no question of whether or not she would be forgotten.

What he feared most was forgetting Xia Tingwan's voice.

Therefore, I often open the voice messages in WeChat and listen to them repeatedly.

In the past, Xia Tingwan mainly communicated by typing, and would only send voice messages when it was inconvenient to type.

He doesn't have many voice messages on WeChat, but he has listened to each one many times.

The intonation of every sentence and the ending of every word are etched into my mind.

Therefore, the voice sounded particularly familiar.

But I still couldn't help but feel excited.

He took a deep breath, suppressing the surging emotions in his chest.

Xia Tingwan emphasized the words "Second Uncle".

He understood Xia Tingwan's implication, but instead of reminiscing, he said, "Uncle Hao is away on a business trip and we can't contact him for the time being. But I can make the decision for him."

"Who do you want to perform the surgery?"

The reason Lin Jianshen could make decisions for him was naturally because the net had already begun to close in.

Xia Tingwan understood his implication, suppressed her excitement, and said in as calm a voice as possible, "My grandfather."

Her initial plan was to get Xia Xueyi out of the house and take control of the Xia family herself.

By the time Xia Xueyi returned with the old man, the Xia family was already finished.

However, Xia Xueyi has now found other uses.

Xia Tingwan said, "Our family is very wealthy, and this is definitely the big order you're hoping for."

He emphasized the word "hope" a little more than usual.

Xia Xueyi didn't notice anything amiss.

But Lin Jianshen knew what she meant by those words.

This big order wasn't for Sun Hao, but for the police.

He nodded: "Okay, I'll make the arrangements. We received a notification from President Xia beforehand, and the people are already ready."

Xia Xueyi, who was standing nearby, was taken aback when he heard this.

He didn't expect that Xia Wenshan would actually listen to him.

But on second thought, this does indeed fit Xia Wenshan's way of doing things. He keeps a backup plan in mind whenever he has free time, in case it comes in handy someday.

Now, it can be said that even in death, it continues to shine.

Lin Jianshen added, "I'll send you a location in a bit, and you can arrange for people to go to Southeast Asia directly."

"Patients are often emotionally unstable during surgery, which may affect the final outcome."

"You'd better arrange for an immediate family member to accompany you."

If Xia Tingwan is with him, he can reunite with her.

If it's not Xia Tingwan, then it's someone who's just here to get themselves killed.

Xia Tingwan said, "Okay."

The two hung up the phone.

A dozen seconds later, Xia Tingwan's phone vibrated.

Lin Jianshen sent the address.

It is located somewhere in Southeast Asia.

Finally, he heard some good news, and Xia Xueyi perked up a bit: "Tingwan, who do you think would be suitable to accompany the old man?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the butler trotted in.

His voice was somewhat flustered: "President Xia, the Ning family and the Yu family have sent invitations, inviting us to a banquet."

These two companies are definitely testing each other's strengths and weaknesses.

Therefore, this is not just an invitation, but a harbinger of an impending storm.

Xia Xueyi felt another headache coming on.

Xia Tingwan picked up the invitation and looked at it, then said, "I'll stay in the capital and deal with them."

"Second Uncle, take Grandpa to have the surgery."

Xia Xueyi's thinking is not fluent, but his decisiveness remains.

He knew that he had to act quickly at this point, so he said, "Okay, let's arrange it that way."

In fact, he had already made up his mind that if the old man's surgery failed, he would run away.

The Xia family has done too many immoral things; once they lose their usefulness, he's finished.

Xia Tingwan's suggestion was exactly what he wanted to hear.

Let her struggle in this mess.

Xia Xueyi glanced at Xia Tingwan and felt a pang of regret.

This niece is absolutely perfect.

She is well-behaved, sensible, beautiful, intelligent, and responsible.

It's a pity to be born into such a family.

Now we're stuck in this quagmire again.

Xia Xueyi sighed and instructed the butler, "After I leave, you must do your best to help the Second Miss."

The butler bowed slightly: "Understood."

Xia Xueyi went to the sanatorium overnight and set off with Xia Ziqiang.

Because Xia Ziqiang was in poor health, Xia Xueyi also brought a medical team from the sanatorium.

The hospital in Southeast Asia has been taken into custody by the police.

After receiving Lin Jianshen's notification, they laid a trap, waiting for them to fall into it.

Ning Wei remained in Southeast Asia to oversee the overall situation.

The reason he was persuaded by Old Master Cheng to participate in the Tiger Subduing Plan was because he knew how formidable Old Master Cheng was.

This old man was a fierce general on the battlefield.

When it moves, it is as swift as thunder.

Now that Old Master Cheng has begun to close in, the Xia family is most likely doomed.

If he makes a wrong judgment, the Ning family will quickly sever ties with him.

Fortunately, the situation looks very good at the moment.

There are countless achievements to be made here, so he naturally can't let them slip by.

Lin Jianshen followed Ma Jianfeng back to Donghai to report to Old Master Cheng.

Then they learned some news:

While conducting operations in Southeast Asia, the police also deployed personnel to monitor Sun Hao.

But someone leaked the news, and Sun Hao fled immediately.

The person who leaked the information has been caught.

However, Sun Hao, accompanied by a bodyguard, has disappeared without a trace.

Given the current situation, the police no longer need to hold back and can immediately take action.

All ports capable of navigating to sea were quickly brought under control.

Coast Guard patrols are present at sea.

Control measures have been implemented at bus stations and other locations.

Special police officers are also stationed at highway entrances.

Sun Hao cannot leave the East China Sea.

However, this person is a seasoned veteran with a strong sense of counter-surveillance, and we can't find his whereabouts for the time being.

Ma Jianfeng patted Lin Jianshen on the shoulder: "Sun Hao Group is finally finished, but based on my experience, such ruthless figures often launch a last-ditch counterattack."

"He might retaliate against you and the people around you."

Lin Jianshen said, "I'm all alone, and my girlfriend isn't in Donghai, so I'm not afraid of his revenge."

Ma Jianfeng said, "Everyone has weaknesses. Don't speak too confidently. Think about it carefully."

After thinking it over, Lin Jianshen called Song Siyuan and asked him to stay with him.

Before the police have finished their operation, Lin Jianshen will still need to cooperate in many matters.

For example, the specific details of cruise ships, underground casinos, etc.

Lin Jianshen cannot leave Donghai for the next few days.

They basically acted together with Ma Jianfeng.

Lin Jianshen thought he would have to talk a lot, but to his surprise, Song Siyuan readily agreed to go to the police station to find him.
