Before Yang Lina took a sip of water, Li Jingming's phone rang.
Li Jingming took a look and saw that the phone number belonged to Secretary Song Siyang.
He said: "Sir, please come and see Mr. Song quickly. Mr. Song is ill and I have sent him to the hospital. He is awake now and wants to see you and your wife."
Li Jingming glanced at Yang Lina and said, "Which hospital are you in? We'll be here right away."
The secretary told him the location. After hanging up the phone, Li Jingming said: "Let's go to the hospital with me. Uncle Song is sick and wants to see us."
Junbei, you and Nuannuan should go too."
The brother and sister looked at each other and ran to the door to put on their shoes.
Li Jingming's black off-road vehicle shuttled through the city's main roads like the wind.
When the car arrived at the door of the hospital, the secretary was already waiting at the door.
He came up to him and said: "Sir, Mr. Song felt a little dizzy when he woke up this morning. He thought he had high blood pressure. After taking medicine, he fell asleep for a while and didn't get up all afternoon.
We sent him to the hospital. He was in a daze, but now he is more awake and said he wanted to see you and your wife."
Li Jingming said: "Why didn't you call before sending me to the hospital?"
"Sir, he said that you have a lot of things going on lately, so I'd better not bother you for now."
Several people hurriedly entered the elevator, and all the way up, four tall men in black stood at the door of the ward.
They bowed respectfully to Li Jingming, and Li Jingming and Yang Lina went in first.
Song Siyang is almost eighty years old. In recent years, he has helped Li Jingming a lot overtly and covertly. Li Jingming often visits him. Sometimes the old man will go to school alone to see these children.
He was obviously in good health a few days ago, so why is he sick today?
Song Siyang had an oxygen tube inserted into his nose. When he saw Li Jingming, he raised his hand with difficulty.
"Jingming..."
"Uncle Song..."
Li Jingming squatted beside the bed and held Song Siyang's old hand with both hands.
"You're here. I dreamed about my dad last night. In the dream, he blamed me for not having a son.
Jing Ming, can you call me dad?"
Song Siyang's hands were shaking violently, and Li Jingming's eyes were red.
He called out without hesitation: "Dad..."
The secretary on the side watched secretly and shed tears. This old man is a good man and has made a lot of money in his life. All he can do now is quietly do charity.
Li Jingming admired him from the bottom of his heart.
There were two lines of tears in the corners of Song Siyang's eyes.
"You kid, you are just too stubborn.
My old man is dying, so I left the company to you. If you have the ability, you can help me, this old man, take care of my hard work.
Don’t refuse, my old man’s life is all given by you.”
Li Jingming said: "Dad, don't say that, you have helped me a lot over the years."
"My child, from the first time I saw you, you are brave and resourceful, and I have liked you very much.
Just call me dad, and I will be satisfied."
After Song Siyang finished speaking, he looked at Yang Lina and said, "Lina, you are also a good girl."
"Dad, don't say that.
Over the years, you have treated Jingming like your own child, and the relationship between you is actually closer than family members.
Don't talk nonsense, you are in such good health, you should take good care of yourself.
You see, Junbei and Nuannuan are both here. When they grow up and get married, they will have to call you grandpa when they have children."
Song Siyang cried. He was not a good person when he was young. If he knew that he would be so lonely in his later years, he should have been a good person when he was young.
Unfortunately, it's all too late.
Meeting Li Jingming was also their fate.
Song Siyang said: "Junbei..."
Junbei squatted next to him and called him grandpa, and Nuan Nuan also called him grandpa...
"Hey, what a good boy."
Song Siyang said: "Grandpa really wants to watch you grow up..."
Nuannuan said with red eyes: "Grandpa, you will get better."
Song Siyang said: "Okay, okay..."
Jing Ming, let the child go back first. The hospital is too hostile, so let the child go back first."
Li Jingming nodded, turned around and said to Li Junbei: "Take Nuannuan back first."
After the two children left, Song Siyang sent out everyone around him, leaving only his secretary.
Song Siyang said: "Jingming, I don't have much time. I have already made a will regarding the company's affairs and the property in my name. You can handle the handover with the lawyer later."
Li Jingming's heart felt clogged and he said anxiously: "Uncle Song, this is your life's hard work."
"I'm lying here, and those things are of no use to me.
I called you here just to tell you these things.
You should go back early today too."
Li Jingming was worried, Mr. Song's situation didn't look good.
"I'm not leaving tonight, I'll just stay here with you."
"No, I'm quite satisfied. Go back. I want to rest for a while."
"Okay, then if you feel uncomfortable, just press the button above your head, and the doctor will come as soon as possible."
"I understand. The secretary will accompany me. You should go back quickly."
"Then tell me what you want to eat tomorrow morning and I will bring it to you tomorrow morning."
"If you want to eat tofu puffs, give me a bowl of tofu puffs."
"Okay, I'll deliver it to you tomorrow morning."
When Li Jingming and Yang Lina left, the sky had completely darkened.
The atmosphere in the car was a bit dull, and neither of them spoke.
When the car was halfway through, Yang Lina said, "I'll make the tofu puffs myself tomorrow morning. We'll also eat tofu puffs tomorrow morning. We haven't had them for a long time."
Li Jingming didn't answer, she thought to herself: "Lina, what do you think people will end up with in this life?"
Yang Lina put one arm on the window and said calmly: "There is nothing. If you are born, you will take it with you if you die."
Li Jingming took a deep breath and said: "He is very good to me. I just saved him and he felt he owed me.
However, what he owed me has been paid long ago."
Yang Lina said: "I hope he can survive this time."
Li Jingming didn't eat at night. He stayed alone in the study for a long time, drinking alone.
Even though we know that birth, old age, illness and death are normal, we still feel sad inevitably.
The reason why he calls him dad is not because of his wealth.
And this is what Song Siyang has wanted for decades.
Li Jingming returned to the room smelling of alcohol and took Yang Lina into his arms.
Yang Lina smelled the smell of wine and said, "You have a bad stomach. You shouldn't drink so much wine without eating."
"It's okay, go to sleep, I have to get up early tomorrow morning."
Yang Lina said: "The soybeans have been soaked."
Li Jingming responded. In the early morning, Song Siyang's secretary called and found that Song Siyang was gone.
Li Jingming's heart sank, he got up, got dressed, and rushed to the hospital with Yang Lina overnight.
