Chapter 190 Bad News
Southern Suburbs Hotel.
A harsh cell phone ringtone woke Wei Xiaobao from his deep sleep.
Wei Xiaobao struggled, enduring a severe headache, turned over, looked outside at the early morning light, and frowned.
He drank until midnight last night before returning to the hotel from Luo's house. Luo Zhan originally planned to let him stay at his house, but he refused.
"Hey, who is it!? They're mourning before dawn! You'd better give me a better reason."
Wei Xiaobao didn't even look at the caller ID, he directly answered the phone and said weakly.
"Xiaobao, Sister Qing's father is critically ill..."
Jiang Yirong's slightly sad voice came from the other end of the phone.
Wei Xiaobao, who was originally sleepy, was stunned for a moment when he heard the news, and then he jumped up from the bed!
"What?!"
Wei Xiaobao stood on the bed, staring at a pair of eyes red from hangover, and asked loudly.
"Uncle Shangguan, he is dying."
Jiang Yirong on the other end of the phone said again.
After a long time.
"I know, I'll rush back right away."
Wei Xiaobao was stunned for a moment and finally came to his senses.
After hanging up the phone, Wei Xiaobao still couldn't react. Shangguan Jinxun always seemed to be in good health, so how could he suddenly become critically ill? Could it be that he didn't know what happened recently?
After briefly tidying up, Wei Xiaobao dragged his still hungover body and took Xiaohu directly to City E.
On the way, Wei Xiaobao dialed Xue Baichuan's phone number.
"Master Wei? Are you back?"
Xue Baichuan's voice came from the other end of the phone, slightly excited.
"Has anything happened in City E recently that I don't know about?"
Wei Xiaobao ignored Xue Baichuan's inquiry and asked in a deep voice.
"No, you are talking about Shangguan Jinxun, right?"
Xue Baichuan said slowly.
"you know?"
Wei Xiaobao asked with narrowed eyes.
"I just received the news and was just thinking about how to tell you."
Xue Baichuan continued to answer, with a hint of sadness in his words.
"Let me explain the matter in BT City and meet back in E City."
After Wei Xiaobao finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly.
He didn't like this kind of hindsight, something that happened suddenly. If Xue Baichuan didn't hide it, then the Shangguan family must have been hiding something. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Shangguan Jin Xun to suddenly become critically ill.
...
E City Airport.
By the time Wei Xiaobao got on the plane and rushed back to City E, it was already noon.
Xue Baichuan, who had arrived a step earlier, was already waiting outside the airport with his people.
"Master Wei!"
Xue Baichuan, who saw Wei Xiaobao from a distance, waved his hands and shouted.
Wei Xiaobao saw Xue Baichuan, walked over without saying a word, and got into the commercial car.
Without any delay, the commercial vehicle stepped on the accelerator and headed towards E Central Hospital.
In the car.
"Nothing happened in City E recently?"
Wei Xiaobao looked at Xue Baichuan again to confirm.
"No."
Xue Baichuan nodded seriously.
Wei Xiaobao said no more, his expression extremely gloomy.
City Center Hospital.
When Shangguan Qing and others who were guarding the hospital saw Wei Xiaobao suddenly appearing, they were all dumbfounded. No one expected that Wei Xiaobao would suddenly come to the hospital.
When Wei Xiaobao arrived at the hospital, he didn't say hello to anyone, and first walked straight into Shangguan Jinxun's special care ward, regardless of the nurse's obstruction.
At this time, Shangguan Jinxun was already dying, and he no longer had the charm of the past. He was old and weak, and his body suddenly lost a lot of weight, as if all the flesh on his body had disappeared overnight.
Looking at Shangguan Jinxun who suddenly seemed to have changed, Wei Xiaobao's face was gloomy and he stayed in the ward for a long time.
After a long time, Wei Xiaobao finally walked out of the ward.
Looking at Shangguan Qing, whose face was full of tears and pale, Wei Xiaobao walked straight over and took Shangguan Qing into his arms.
Shangguan Qing gritted her teeth, nestled in the arms of Wei Xiaobao whom she had not seen for a long time, and finally couldn't help crying again, and finally broke down in tears.
In the past few days, she has been almost crushed by this sudden change. If it were not for the company of Jiang Yirong and others, she would have collapsed long ago. Fortunately, Wei Xiaobao is finally back, and she no longer has to pretend to be strong.
Wei Xiaobao didn't speak from the beginning to the end, he just hugged Shangguan Qing so tightly and let her tears soak the clothes on his chest.
Jiang Yirong and others who had been with Shangguan Qing looked at Shangguan Qing who was sobbing, and they all cuddled together and couldn't help but shed tears.
...
I don't know how long it took, but Shangguan Qing finally stopped crying.
"What happened?"
Wei Xiaobao looked down at Shangguan Qing and asked softly.
"I don't know, my father suddenly entered the hospital, and then the doctor issued a critical illness notice. He has always been in good health, how could he suddenly seem to be a different person?"
Shangguan Qing shook her head and looked at Shangguan Jinxun in the intensive care unit separated by a piece of glass.
"Where's Uncle Nine?"
Wei Xiaobao then asked.
"Went to the doctor."
Shangguan Qing choked and said.
"Okay, you go back and have a rest first. I'm here to watch. Nothing will happen."
As he spoke, Wei Xiaobao wiped Shangguan Qing's tears and spoke softly. As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Yirong and others who had been standing beside him and winked.
Jiang Yirong and others came forward, comforted Shangguan Qing, and left the hospital with Shangguan Qing.
In the past few days, Shangguan Qing barely slept a wink because of Shangguan Jinxun's incident, and she kept telling Jiang Yirong and others not to tell Wei Xiaobao, for fear of delaying Wei Xiaobao's work, but in the end Jiang Yirong secretly called Wei Xiaobao.
After Jiang Yirong and others left with Shangguan Qing, Wei Xiaobao found Uncle Jiu. Now the only person who might know what happened was Uncle Jiu.
"Uncle Nine."
In the hospital lobby, Wei Xiaobao found Uncle Jiu who had just walked out of the doctor's office.
Uncle Jiu was stunned for a moment when he saw Wei Xiaobao suddenly appearing.
"Why are you back?"
Uncle Jiu looked at Wei Xiaobao in surprise.
"What? If I don't come back, are you going to keep hiding it from me? I can understand Qing'er's pain, but Uncle Jiu shouldn't have delayed telling me."
Wei Xiaobao frowned, as if he was a little dissatisfied with Uncle Jiu.
"It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's that the head of the family has always wanted to hide it from everyone, and I've been very busy lately, so I haven't had time to tell you yet."
Uncle Jiu shook his head with a sad look on his face.
"what happened?"
Wei Xiaobao stared into Uncle Jiu's eyes and asked in a deep voice.
Now, Wei Xiaobao could conclude that Shangguan Jinxun was indeed hiding something from him.
"It's not convenient to talk here. Let's find a quieter place."
Uncle Jiu said, walking towards the fire stairs leading to the roof of the building.
