Chapter 428: Xu Qingqing Blocks Zhang Linyu and Xu Shengwu
"Lin Yu, are you all right?" Deputy Director Zhang hurried over, clutching his daughter with concern when he saw her.
Zhang Linyu shook her head, looking anxiously toward Sun Yiliang at the side of the hospital bed. In a whisper, she pointed and said, "It was this man I hit. He’s still hasn’t woken up. The doctor said there’s no danger to his life now, but why hasn’t he woken up yet?"
Deputy Director Zhang turned and looked at Xu Qingqing, who was weeping with her hands over her face, his expression becoming stern, "Comrade, I am sorry, my daughter is young and naive. Whatever compensation you want, I will try my best to satisfy you."
Xu Qingqing wiped her tears, her grief and indignation profound, "Can compensation bring my man back to life? Can it undo the harm he’s suffered? He still hasn’t woken up, and I don’t even know if he will wake up. Compensation, I don’t lack money, our family is in business."
Deputy Director Zhang looked troubled, seeing Xu Qingqing so distraught; he had only this precious daughter and naturally couldn’t bear to see her in trouble. When he thought that Xu Qingqing was in business, his expression suddenly brightened with a smile, "Comrade, what business are you in? I know quite a few people, some of whom are also in business. If you’re willing, I could connect you with them, providing you with better business opportunities."
Upon hearing this, a barely detectable smile appeared on Xu Qingqing’s face. She knew her wish would soon be realized. Wiping her tears, Xu Qingqing hesitated before saying as she looked at the man in the bed, "Let’s wait for my man to wake up and ask for his opinion on this matter."
Deputy Director Zhang nodded quickly, and soon his secretary came up with a fruit basket and entered the hospital room. Deputy Director Zhang gave his secretary a knowing look; the fruits were immediately placed on the cabinet in the ward.
The secretary whispered in Deputy Director Zhang’s ear, quickly clarifying the identities of Xu Qingqing and the man in the bed. As soon as Deputy Director Zhang heard that Xu Qingqing was from Xujia Village, his face became peculiar. Wasn’t that the village where Xu Ying lived?
On learning that Xu Qingqing was in the business of greenhouse vegetables, Deputy Director Zhang’s face became troubled. To offer to help this comrade expand her greenhouse vegetable business would surely offend Xu Ying. That girl was now a celebrity, always running around, knowing quite a few important leaders in Shanghai. Moreover, her in-laws had a bit of renown; Deputy Director Zhang was somewhat at a loss for a while.
Xu Qingqing, watching Sun Yiliang, who remained long unconscious, grew more anxious. He couldn’t possibly remain unconscious for a lifetime, could he? Then she’d be a widow for the rest of her life. Her face became fraught with urgency.
