My stepmother forced me to donate bone marrow, so I retaliated by slapping my scumbag father in the

"cell phone!"

Sun Mei frantically searched her handbag, only to find that her phone was not with her.

She snatched Shen Jianjun's phone and pulled out a number she hadn't dialed in a long time.

Shen Jianjun's expression changed: "What are you going to do?"

"Please beg him!"

Sun Mei's hands trembled: "I'll do anything as long as he lets Congcong go!"

The call was dialed, and after a few rings, the call was connected.

Sun Mei's tears welled up instantly: "Shen Ze, it's me!"

"Please, please, don't let the hospital take Congcong away!"

"He's still receiving treatment; he really can't leave there!"

There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone.

"It's too late."

Shen Ze's voice was icy: "Shen Cong has now been transferred to the First People's Hospital of Shanghai."

Sun Mei's legs went weak, and she knelt down on the ground.

She could no longer care about her dignity, and pleaded through tears, "Shen Ze, I know I was wrong!"

"Jianjun Group has gone bankrupt, we have nothing left!"

"You've taken everything you wanted!"

"Let's just forget about all the past grievances, okay?"

"Congcong is so weak, he can't take any more stress!"

"Please, please let the hospital admit him again! He's your own brother!"

Shen Ze's voice suddenly turned cold: "To call it even?"

"Sun Mei, what right do you have to say those four words?"

"Does the bankruptcy of Jianjun Group negate everything you've done?"

Sun Mei's crying stopped abruptly.

Shen Ze's anger, which he had suppressed for many years, finally erupted.

"You became a mistress, ruined my parents' marriage, and forced my mother and me to leave with nothing."

"You've allowed the Sun family to cut off all our escape routes; I can settle those scores with you slowly."

"But the worst thing you could have done was kill my mother!"

Everyone in the study changed their expressions at the same time.

Sun Mei's body trembled violently.

Sun Qingliang suddenly raised his head, his grip on his cane tightening abruptly.

Shen Jianjun stood there, stunned.

Sun Mei's voice trembled: "Your mother had surgical complications, what does that have to do with me?"

"Still pretending?"

Shen Ze said angrily, "Six years ago, on June 23, you and Sun Qingliang entered the Third People's Hospital of Shanghai."

"You bribed the surgeon, Li Changfang, with seven million yuan to tamper with my mother's surgery!"

"He deliberately left a hidden danger, causing massive postoperative bleeding!"

"On the day my mother passed away, Li Changfang immediately resigned and fled Shanghai with the money you gave him!"

"I have all the transfer records, hospital registration documents, and Li Changfang's statement!"

Every word was like a heavy hammer blow to Sun Mei's heart, and all the color drained from her face.

Sun Mei's lips trembled incessantly, yet she couldn't utter a single word.

On the phone, Shen Ze's voice was filled with hatred.

"When my mother died, you were enjoying a life of luxury in your mansion."

"Li Changfang took the seven million and bought a house, a car, and opened a pharmacy."

"Every single one of you lives a good life by stepping on my mother's life!"

"Now that Jianjun Group is gone, you dare say that all grudges are settled?"

"I'm telling you, it's impossible!"

"My own brother? His son, the son of a mistress, does he even deserve to be my brother?"

"Shen Cong was just a small interest payment I collected!"

"You made me suffer the pain of losing my mother, so I'll make you taste the bitterness of losing your son!"

"Shen Ze!"

Sun Mei completely broke down: "Congcong is innocent! How could you disregard brotherly affection!"

"If you have hatred, come at me! Please don't hurt him!"

"Innocent? Isn't my mother innocent?"

"I was just a child back then, wasn't I innocent?"

"Have you ever given us a way to survive?"

Shen Ze didn't listen to her cries anymore and hung up the phone immediately.

Sun Mei, clutching her phone, collapsed to the ground.

Meanwhile, outside the First People's Hospital of Shanghai.

Shen Ze put down his phone and got into the car.

He had already had someone investigate Shen Cong's current physical condition.

Although the leukemia treatment has been effective, the patient's body remains very fragile, and his mental state is extremely unstable.

A major shock could trigger a serious illness or even death.

The car started and headed straight for the inpatient department.

The Longdu Study remained deathly silent.

Sun Qingliang's expression also changed.

Every time and every transfer that Shen Ze just mentioned was so accurate that it was impossible to refute.

Six years ago, after Sun Mei became the other woman, she was the subject of much discussion in Shanghai's high society.

When she became pregnant with Shen Cong, Shen Jianjun and Xu Ying had not even officially divorced yet.

If Xu Ying continues to live, this disgraceful past will never be erased.

To cover up the scandal, Sun Mei returned to Longdu and found her father.

"Dad, as long as Xu Ying is alive, everyone will remember how I married into the Shen family."

"Shen Ze may come back to compete for Jianjun Group when he grows up."

"She's scheduled for surgery in a few days."

"As long as we bribe the doctor and tamper with the surgery a little, no one will suspect us."

Sun Qingliang did not hesitate at all. In his eyes, Xu Ying was just an ordinary woman with no background.

How could her life possibly compare to the Sun family's reputation and her daughter's fame?

"Go ahead and do it, and make sure it's done cleanly."

Later, Li Changfang accepted seven million yuan and deliberately left hidden dangers during the surgery.

Xu Ying died from massive bleeding.

In the hospital's surveillance footage, young Shen Ze was seen kneeling outside the emergency room, holding his mother's body and breaking down in tears.

Sun Qingliang and Sun Mei watched the surveillance footage with a sense of smug satisfaction.

……

The phone, which had been hung up, slipped from Sun Mei's hand and fell onto the carpet.

She collapsed to the ground, her face covered in tears, repeating the same sentence over and over again.

"Congcong can't be harmed..."

"He can't be hurt!"

"Dad, please save him! Quickly take him back to the private hospital!"

Sun Qingliang gripped his cane, his face extremely gloomy.

Six years ago, he never took Shen Ze seriously.

In his view, a child who has been kicked out of a wealthy family has neither money nor background. As long as the Sun family makes a simple request, they can make it impossible for the child to move an inch in Shanghai.

But in just six years, everything has changed.

The child he once regarded as an ant not only survived, but also gained control of Pearl Private Bank, Douxin, Caesar Hotel, Longsheng Group, and Daxia International Private Hospital.

Assets exceeding 200 billion!

Even Jianjun Group, a company with hundreds of billions in assets, was driven to the brink of collapse by Shen Ze and eventually went bankrupt.

Now, which hospital Shen Cong stays in, what kind of treatment he receives, and even whether he can continue to stay in the private hospital are all decided by a single word from Shen Ze.

This feeling of being out of control gave Sun Qingliang a strong sense of crisis for the first time.

If Shen Ze is allowed to continue developing like this, the Sun family may really be threatened!

"stand up!"

Sun Qingliang tapped his cane heavily.

Sun Mei suddenly raised her head: "Dad..."

What's the use of crying?

Sun Qingliang turned to his secretary: "Contact the people in Shanghai immediately."

Tell Shen Ze that Shen Cong must return to Daxia International Private Hospital.

"The Sun family will cover the treatment costs; we'll give him whatever amount he wants!"

The secretary hesitated before saying, "Master, the hospital has clearly refused to admit any more patients."

"Then tell him this isn't something to discuss!"

Sun Qingliang's voice was cold and stern: "Shen Cong has already been sentenced and is being guarded by officials. Shen Ze deliberately interrupted his treatment; if someone dies, he won't be able to escape responsibility either!"

"Let our people spread the word."

"If Shen Zeruo insists on preventing Shen Cong from returning to the private hospital in Shanghai, the Sun family will not let this go!"
