Chapter 219: Chapter 210: Liang Tianze’s Choice
Liang Tianze felt a chill rise from his back, never having thought that the opposition’s influence was so strong even in America. It seemed as if he had unknowingly fallen into a vortex, wanting to escape, yet unable to.
It had only been a little more than an hour since he called his son or the mysterious person did. From the events in Huaxia to then in the state of Shenghua in America, what kind of organization could possess such a high-efficiency cross-regional power? When did he provoke such a power?
The voice of his son, Liang Xiaoqiang, came through the phone: "Dad, save me, save me!"
This recording, but Liang Tianze could tell, this was definitely his son’s voice.
"I’ll give you one night to think it over. I hope we can cooperate happily!" The voice came again, seemingly certain that Liang Tianze would cooperate, very relaxed, like chatting with an old friend.
At this moment, Madam Liang walked out. Typically, when Liang Tianze returned, he would call from the living room, and then Madam Liang would come out to help him hang his bag and coat and change into casual home clothes. Today, after hearing the door open, there was no response. At the time, Madam Liang was watching a drama that was at a critical point, so she didn’t pay much attention. Now that she had finished watching it but hadn’t heard her husband call out, she found it strange, so she walked out.
Madam Liang was surprised to see Liang Tianze rarely stunned at the door. Even when they found out about their son Liang Xiaoqiang’s wrongdoing, he didn’t look as terrified as he did now. After all the storms he’d weathered, what could make Liang Tianze so lost in thought that he didn’t even realize she was beside him?
"Lao Liang, what’s the matter? Did something happen?" Madam Liang asked with concern.
Liang Tianze glanced at his wife, coming back to his senses, noting her worried look, and said somewhat helplessly: "Nothing, I’ll go in and rest for a while!"
Madam Liang said nothing, took the bag and coat that Liang Tianze handed over, and helped hang them on the coat rack. Liang Tianze changed his shoes and went straight to the study. At this moment, Madam Liang silently made a cup of tea, took it in, and quietly left.
Liang Tianze sat in the study, his mind constantly turning, pondering why he was targeted by them. What was the true story behind all of this?
Liang Tianze, a man who had been through great storms, was very insightful, and his mind worked quickly. After calming down, he gradually found some clues. It was impossible for him to have provoked such a powerful organization; therefore, he was ensnared into this mess only due to the young doctor tonight.
Upon this realization, Liang Tianze was taken aback. Xiao Lin seemed to be just a little over twenty, looking like a college student, working as a doctor at Yan University Hospital. By rights, he shouldn’t be someone from some great family background, certainly not someone who would provoke such a terrifying organization. However, it was now clear that this matter was definitely instigated by the young doctor, proving that Dr. Xiao’s family background was not simple, either. Otherwise, given their enormous power, there would be no need to coerce him into cooperation; they could just kill him directly.
Thinking back to Xiao Lin’s demonstration of acupoint skills, it seemed he was a martial arts expert. Ordinary assassinations probably wouldn’t affect him. However, Liang Tianze didn’t know how the young Dr. Xiao had provoked such a terrifying organization.
"Should I give him a call?" Although Liang Tianze was very upset with Xiao Lin for the embarrassment he caused tonight, it was just anger. Faced with such a significant issue, Liang Tianze remained principled. This matter obviously wasn’t simple. Even if he agreed to cooperate with the mysterious person, he might not get what he wanted in the end.
After a long pause, Liang Tianze picked up his phone, took a deep breath, found Chen Feng’s number, and dialed it.
After leaving the hospital, Xiao Lin didn’t immediately return home. He went to the inpatient department at Yan University Hospital to check on little Niu Niu. After these two days of recuperation, she was basically fine. After the injury on her leg healed in a few days, she would be able to walk again. And by then, Dan Qing’s health would be much better than it was now, and it would also be time for the mother and daughter to meet.
Although Niu Niu’s hospital room at Yan University Hospital wasn’t as luxurious as those in the affiliated hospital, the treatment she received was beyond what Dan Qing could imagine. In just a few days, the entire hospital’s doctors and nurses knew about Niu Niu’s presence. Niu Niu was particularly well-behaved, constantly calling everyone brother, sister, uncle, aunt with sweet words. Her complexion had become rosy, and she looked nothing like the malnourished child when she was first admitted.
The person Niu Niu most wanted to see, besides her mother Dan Qing, was naturally Xiao Lin. Seeing Xiao Lin coming now, her rosy face blossomed into a smile and she said, "Brother Xiao Lin, I thought you weren’t going to see me anymore!"
Seeing Niu Niu’s adorable face, Xiao Lin didn’t know why, but he felt warmth in his heart. Seeing Niu Niu improve day by day made him very pleased. With a smile, he said, "How could that be? Niu Niu is so cute; how could Big Brother not come to see you!"
"You didn’t come last night!" Niu Niu pouted a little, remembering that Xiao Lin didn’t come last night.
"You little girl, you have quite a memory!" Xiao Lin laughed, her childish words were heartwarming.
"Big Brother, have you eaten? I have lots of goodies here!" Niu Niu, who was now able to move around in bed without difficulty, showed no sign of strain. Xiao Lin didn’t stop her, as moving within her capability was good for her recovery.
"I didn’t realize I was hungry until you mentioned it!" Seeing Niu Niu so enthusiastic, Xiao Lin played along, taking a snack from the bag in her hand and putting some in his mouth.
Niu Niu suddenly turned to him and asked, "Big Brother, when can I start walking?"
"Soon, do you miss your mom?" Xiao Lin quickly understood Niu Niu’s thoughts. Even though she had obediently stayed in bed these two days without asking about her mother, it was because she wanted to get better quickly so she could see her mother. It was rare to find such an understanding little girl.
"Yes, Big Brother, you’re so good at medicine, save my mom, please? Although she doesn’t say it, I know she’s seriously ill, much more than me!" Niu Niu’s eyes filled with tears as she talked about her mom, making people feel for her.
"Don’t worry, Niu Niu, when you can get up and walk, Big Brother will take you to see your mom!" Xiao Lin said softly.
After spending about half an hour in Niu Niu’s room, having gotten the answers she wanted and grown tired from chatting, Niu Niu peacefully fell asleep. Xiao Lin left the room, instructing nurse Xiao Mei on what needed attention. Xiao Lin wasn’t worried they wouldn’t care for Niu Niu; she was too lovable. (To be continued.
