King of Capital: From Unemployment to the Pinnacle of Life
Chapter 171 Crisis Countdown
"The old lady... just now, while we servants weren't around, she secretly got up to walk, but she fell and knocked herself unconscious... and the doctors on the mountain have all disappeared, we don't know where they went?" the maid answered, her lips trembling.
Upon hearing this, Song Huayang immediately stood up and hurriedly walked out... I quickly followed him.
"Big sister...these medical staff on the mountain are all third brother's men, and second sister has already detained them..." I quickly explained.
Song Huayang was extremely anxious and didn't care what I was saying. He ran straight to Yin Mei's villa.
We arrived at Yin Mei's bedroom, only to find that she had already been lifted onto the bed, with several nannies anxiously watching over her...
Yin Mei had woken up. She had a cut on her head, which had been bandaged, and was groaning softly...
Upon seeing me, he immediately reacted as if he had found a lifeline, excitedly raising his arm and calling out, "Cheng'er! Cheng'er!"
"mom!"
I quickly knelt down in front of her bed and took her hand: "Mom, what's wrong? I heard from them that you insisted on getting up and walking by yourself!"
"Yes, Cheng'er! Mom is so happy! Mom is so excited!"
Yin Mei was overjoyed and cried tears of happiness: "Cheng'er... Mom's left leg can move again! Look... it can be lifted!"
Yin Mei demonstrated diligently... Sure enough, she could lift her left calf quite flexibly.
"Cheng'er, look... Mom didn't lie to you! Mom really can walk now!"
"mom!"
Song Huayang was also moved to tears, and rushed forward to hug Yin Mei: "Mom! That's wonderful! You can move your legs again!"
"Yes! Huayang, it hasn't been that long since Xiaocheng treated me... he's a true miracle doctor! Thank God! Guanyin has blessed me with such a wonderful son-in-law!"
"Mom! This is wonderful...this is so wonderful! Waaaaah!"
.......
I won't go into how the mother and daughter embraced and wept, but as for me... while I pretended to be full of emotion, my mind was in even more turmoil!
Currently... the logic is quite clear!
It's true that Yin Mei was injured in the fall back then!
But what truly paralyzed her was... the "painkillers" that Song Huayao instructed Dr. Zhang to inject her with every few days. Nominally, they were for pain relief, but in reality, they were for paralysis! This kept the old lady in a state of constant paralysis!
Now... Yin Mei no longer believes Dr. Zhang's nonsense, she believes mine... As the effects of the medicine gradually wear off, her legs can move again.
In other words... it wasn't because of my superior medical skills; at most, I relieved her pain and kept her away from the poison!
If that's true, just as Yin Mei said, it won't be long, at most half a month, before she's able to stand up and walk slowly!
She's just currently experiencing muscle atrophy due to years of using a wheelchair, and needs a transition period...
"My dear Cheng'er! Thank you, Mom!"
Yin Mei looked at me with tears streaming down her face, her eyes filled with gratitude: "Mom... I can't thank you enough! Cheng'er, tell me... what do you want? Mom wants to repay you properly!"
"Uh... Mom! What are you saying..."
I gave an awkward smile: "I only want one thing: that you stay healthy, live a long and healthy life, and walk briskly!"
"My good child!"
Yin Mei hugged me tightly, patted my shoulder gently, and said excitedly, her breath ragged, "Cheng'er! Get married to Huayang at the end of this month! I want to hold my grandson soon... Mom wants to stand up at the end of this month... and personally officiate your wedding!"
wipe!
Upon hearing this, my anus tightened with nervousness, and I was so embarrassed that my toes could have dug themselves through the floor!
It's true... what I feared most has come to pass?
If Yin Mei hadn't brought this up, I could have continued to muddle through... But damn it, now that she's back on her feet, her "ambitions" have grown! She's finally put marriage on the "agenda"!
This is forcing me to reveal my true identity!
There is no way I can marry Song Huayang!
And this conflict... also foreshadows that I will soon have a falling out with Yin Mei!
In stark contrast to my extreme anxiety... Song Huayang remained completely calm, naturally reassuring Yin Mei: "Mom! This is all easy to handle, don't worry... Look at you, you insisted on standing up in such a hurry that you even banged your head against the wall. If outsiders see this at the wedding... they'll laugh at us."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Yin Mei suddenly realized and covered her forehead, sighing, "What are we going to do? Will it be better by the end of the month? Will anyone be able to tell?"
"Mom! Don't worry!"
Song Huayang gently comforted Yin Mei: "Haste makes waste! Your legs have only just regained their mobility... At the very least, you need a period of training and recovery to allow the atrophied muscles to heal... Once you can walk as fast as you can and the injury on your forehead has healed, then you can host our wedding and leave all the guests in awe! You'll dazzle them!"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Yin Mei trembled with excitement: "Blind them! They all thought... I, Yin Mei, couldn't stand up anymore, that I was crippled! They've really blinded me! I'll let them see with their own eyes how I can command the world like I used to!"
"Yes, Mom!"
Song Huayang smiled and said, "Right now, your most important thing... is to follow Xiao Cheng's medical advice, rest properly, recover, and exercise. Don't blindly try to exercise on your own... You said that?"
"Uh-huh!"
Yin Mei excitedly grabbed my hand and said, "Cheng'er! For the next few days, will you accompany Mom in her training every day? I want to speed up my recovery... so I can hold your and Huayang's wedding sooner!"
"Oh my god! Look at you! You're even more anxious than me... I'm so embarrassed..." Song Huayang said shyly.
"Well......"
I grinned awkwardly and said, "Mom! Don't worry! Starting tomorrow, I'll stay with you every day to help you recover and exercise."
"Good! My good son..."
Suddenly, Yin Mei remembered something and asked me with a smile, "Cheng'er, can you drive?"
"Sure, Mom! Where do you want to go? I can be your driver!" I replied.
"Hehe! Silly child, I appreciate your filial piety, but I don't need you to be my driver. I'm planning to give you a car instead..."
"Give me a car?"
"Yes!"
Yin Mei said with a smile, "Next month is Hua Jin's birthday... This girl likes that new Lamborghini Sixth Element, and I'm planning to give her one as a birthday present. I've ordered two, one for you and one for Hua Jin..."
"The Sixth Element!"
I gasped, "Mom...you mean, the Lamborghini Six Element, one of only 20 made worldwide?"
"Hmm! Do you like it?"
Yin Mei asked me with a smile.
"I...I like it!" I grinned awkwardly.
"If you like it, that's great!"
Yin Mei smiled and said, "Xiao Cheng, remember this! You're my own son. Whatever you like, just tell me... as long as it's not an atomic bomb, I'll buy it for you!"
I also picked up on some of the "meaning" in Yin Mei's words!
Become her son-in-law... You can live as luxuriously as you want in terms of food, clothing, and daily necessities! But you absolutely cannot touch the shares! You absolutely cannot touch the management rights!
After all, the Song family is so big... even a spendthrift son can't squander it all!
What I'm afraid of is that you want to cut your losses and interfere with management!
Yin Mei used a Lamborghini to "win me over," which subconsciously meant that she believed I was just a poor guy who had never seen the world, and that she was happy to be coaxed with a rich kid's "toy"!
Just like a kindergarten teacher using a toy car to lure a little boy...
Therefore, I must also pretend to be extremely happy and satisfied! I can't let her think that I have "great ambitions"!
"Mom! Thank you so much!"
I exclaimed excitedly, "That car... I'd only ever seen it in magazines before, I never imagined... I'd own one day!"
"Silly child! What's the big deal?"
Yin Mei smiled kindly, took my hand, and said, "From now on, if you like anything, just tell Mom... Mom will definitely give it to you! Don't be shy!"
"That's right! Xiao Cheng, Mom treats you like her own son. If you feel embarrassed, it will only make things more distant..." Song Huayang chimed in from the side.
"well......!"
Yin Mei sighed again, her expression darkening. "Cheng'er! Actually... don't think I'm an unreasonable person, insisting on breaking up Hua Yao and the guy she met outside... The main thing is, I simply can't accept my children acting first and asking questions later, making decisions on their own! What do they know? They can't even tell the difference between a person and a ghost... Girls, no matter how clever they are normally, once they fall in love, their brains turn to mush. I'm doing this for Hua Yao's own good..."
She paused, then continued, "If... this son-in-law is the one Mom has chosen, then Mom will treat him like her own son!"
"Mom! You're right!"
I readily agreed, saying, "You've crossed more bridges than we've walked roads..."
"Sigh! Speaking of Hua Yao... I'm really furious right now!"
Yin Mei's breathing became heavy, and she said angrily, "I thought she would finally understand today... and quickly get rid of that bastard in her belly, but she's still hesitant and indecisive... refusing to give a straight answer! It's infuriating! Yao Yao wasn't like this before... she's been brainwashed by those other men... the more I think about it, the angrier I get!"
At this point, she instructed her maid, "Go! Bring the third son here! We won't get past this until she gives us a clear answer! I can't let her get away with this!"
Upon hearing this, my hair stood on end!
Song Huayao is currently in a state of mental incapacity... and is being interrogated by Hongman!
How could she possibly see Yin Mei under these circumstances?
