"Do you think you can apologize in person and Director Xu will forgive you?" Hu Biao scoffed heavily, "You probably don’t have that much face!"
"Then what should I do?" Hu Jiaqi was truly feeling intimidated.
He knew.
Xu Wendong’s presence was like a giant hand gripping the throat of the Hu family, capable of deciding their life or death.
Hu Biao’s gaze turned cold, "Book a room at the Tianhai Residence tonight. I’ll personally apologize and seek his forgiveness for you, the ungrateful son."
"Okay, okay, okay."
------
Every province had a large sanatorium.
Generally speaking, when people within the system felt unwell, arrangents were made for them to recuperate in such places, and the sanatorium for Dongyue Province was located in Haicheng.
Many people who once held high status and authority lived here.
Shen Wenhui was recuperating here.
After Zhang Jin parked the car, Xu Wendong and Liu Shii got out one after the other, then retrieved so purchased gifts from the trunk.
The two of them then walked to a two-story building.
The sanatorium had excellent greenery, giving off a feeling of a Jiangnan garden. Here and there, elderly people could be seen chatting and playing cards.
Not long after ringing the doorbell, a woman in her fifties ca out.
Liu Shii imdiately greeted, "Hello, Aunt Wang. We’re from the Urban Managent Bureau, and this is our new Deputy Director, Xu Wendong. We’ve co to see Director Shen."
Wang Juping relaxed but kept her gaze fixed on Xu Wendong, clearly not expecting such a young man to have replaced her husband.
Nonetheless, she invited the two of them into the house.
In the bedroom, Xu Wendong saw Shen Wenhui.
A man in his fifties.
He sat in a wheelchair, his mouth and eyes drooping, unable to move his limbs.
He looked sowhat emaciated and weary, as thin as a skeleton, with a nutrition drip in his body. After all, in his current condition, he had lost the ability to eat.
"Aunt Wang, how is Director Shen’s condition?" Liu Shii asked with concern.
Wang Juping shook her head helplessly, "It’s just how it is!"
Xu Wendong said, "I have studied so dical techniques, especially in cardiovascular areas, and I am sowhat confident. If Aunt Wang doesn’t mind, I can try a couple of acupuncture treatnts on Director Shen."
At this mont.
A disdainful voice ca from the second floor, "You think you can foolishly dream of curing my father? You’re so young, but do you know your own limits?"
"Moreover, you’re not even acquainted with my father. Why do you want to save him?"
"Are you planning to harm him?"
Following the voice, they looked.
A tall, cold, and beautiful woman in her twenties walked down with an expressionless face.
Upon seeing her.
Xu Wendong showed a look of surprise; this woman must have been about 1.8 ters tall, definitely the tallest woman he had ever t.
Her legs, the more you looked, the more riveting they beca, invoking wild imaginations.
But she looked indifferent, exuding a coldness that kept people at a distance.
"Shiwu, don’t be rude to our guests!" Wang Juping said with a stern face, disapproving of her daughter’s previous words.
Shen Shiwu looked coldly at Xu Wendong and said, "You should leave. We don’t welco you here!"
"As for my father’s illness, don’t bother yourself. I will find a famous doctor to treat him."
Liu Shii forced a smile, "Miss Shen, we’ve co just to pay a visit to the old leader, with no ill intentions."
She didn’t understand why there was so much hostility from the other side and wanted to explain.
Shen Shiwu: "My father doesn’t need your visit!"
Liu Shii was at a loss for words.
A goodwill visit faced with direct disdain.
Anyone would be uncomfortable in such a situation.
Xu Wendong asked politely, "Miss Shen, you said before that we intended to harm Director Shen. What did you an by that? Could there be soone wanting to harm Director Shen?"
Shen Shiwu asked, "Are you a policeman?"
"No..."
Shen Shiwu snorted coldly, "If not, why ask so many questions? Do I have any obligation to answer your questions?"
"Get out, quickly leave my house. We don’t welco you here!"
Wang Juping shook her head in resignation on the side, not knowing why her daughter’s emotions were so intense.
"Miss Shen, Director Shen’s condition is really serious. If treated promptly, there might still be a chance for recovery. If delayed, he might spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair." Xu Wendong vaguely sensed that there was surely so secret concerning Shen Wenhui.
Moreover, Shen Shiwu also seed aware of sothing; otherwise, it wouldn’t have been possible for her to harbor such strong hostility toward them.
Precisely because of this, he thought about offering his help to treat Shen Wenhui.
Shen Shiwu impatiently said, "Don’t bother. I already called a renowned doctor; he will co to treat my father later."
Xu Wendong smiled bitterly, "The doctor you invited probably can’t cure Director Shen."
Shen Shiwu’s face revealed a cold smile, "I invited Liu Chunyang, a master in traditional dicine."
Xu Wendong was taken aback, not expecting to encounter Liu Chunyang here.
But a second thought made things clear.
Liu Chunyang was a master of traditional dicine in Dongyue Province; besides teaching and diagnosing in a school, he would sotis co to places like this to help so old leaders with their health problems.
Coming back to his senses, he said, "Liu Chunyang is not good at treating this kind of illness."
"So, you an your dical skills are better than Divine Doctor Liu?" Shen Shiwu didn’t bother to hide her disdain, saying coldly, "Do you think we’re naive children who would believe your nonsense?"
Xu Wendong was left speechless.
"Take your gifts and leave imdiately, or I’ll call security now!" Shen Shiwu directly issued an eviction order.
"Don’t get worked up. We’ll be leaving soon!" Xu Wendong didn’t say much further; he didn’t want Shen Shiwu to escalate the situation, so he left the small courtyard promptly with Liu Shii.
"We ca with good intentions, but I don’t understand why Director Shen’s daughter was so worked up," Liu Shii said, feeling frustrated.
Xu Wendong suddenly asked, "Do you think Vice Mayor Wang is also at this sanatorium?"
Liu Shii: "Yes."
Xu Wendong glanced at the gifts in his hand, "Since we bought these things, we have no reason to take them back. Help find out where Vice Mayor Wang lives so we can visit him!"
He felt so empathy for Vice Mayor Wang and thought about going over to say hello and make himself known.
After all, in his mind.
Vice Mayor Wang was quite an important piece.
If he could be of use to him, it would certainly help Xu Wendong considerably.
After all, Vice Mayor Wang had worked in Haicheng for many years and was extrely familiar with the situation here.
Liu Shii imdiately called the sanatorium staff, inquired about Vice Mayor Wang’s residence, and then the two strolled over there.
Just as Xu Wendong and Liu Shii had barely left, a group of sanatorium staff, along with Liu Chunyang and his apprentice, approached from a distance.
They ca to help Shen Wenhui with his treatnt!
