Chapter 419: The Whereabouts of the Old Butler
Chapter 419: Chapter 419: The Whereabouts of the Old Butler
Indeed, on her way to find her, Grandma encountered other unforeseen events...
Ning Yichu’s expression was extremely grim, "Then what happened?"
"At that time, the black-clad assailants came menacingly. To ensure Old Madam Li’s safety, the old butler specifically found a dead end to place Old Madam Li, and then drove away to lure them off..."
No need to think, the old butler surely ended up in the hands of those black-clad men!
The private investigator’s updates continued to come in, "We consulted with the old butler’s family members and it seems he was in contact with some friend of Old Madam Li..."
A friend of Old Madam Li?
Ning Yichu furrowed her brows tightly, typing back, "Did he mention any friend?"
"His relatives were very curious at the time and asked a few more questions, but the old butler wouldn’t let them inquire."
Based on yesterday’s conversation with Grandma, it’s known that she has been looking into the fire incident at Saint Lya Hospital four years ago!
Shen Jiangqing had mentioned that there was something she could exploit on him and the child’s body, so Li Jingtian did not hesitate to become an accomplice.
"Thanks for your hard work, could you please continue to investigate further, and if you have enough staff, keep an eye on Li Jingtian and his assistant to see if you can find any traces and clues about the old butler."
The private investigator had previously accepted Ning Yichu’s commission to secretly follow Li Jingtian, so the name was not unfamiliar to him.
"Lady Ning, do you suspect that this matter is related to him?"
Ning Yichu didn’t reveal her thoughts directly, "Just keep an eye on them, and be safe."
"Understood!"
After turning off the phone, Ning Yichu walked back to the entrance of the ward just as the expert doctors finished examining Old Madam Li and came out.
"How is my mom?" Li Jianbin asked anxiously, having hurried over.
Li Lingyang’s expression was solemn and concerned as well.
The chief expert of the team didn’t look very optimistic, and said in broken Chinese, "We just conducted a comprehensive physical examination on Old Madam Li and found that she hasn’t woken up this time due to a car accident impact that caused cerebral hemorrhage..."
The air in the corridor suddenly became tense.
No wonder Grandma, even after passing the postoperative danger period, hadn’t woken up.
Ning Yichu’s face turned pale; feelings of self-blame, guilt, and other emotions entwined with her heart, creating a turmoil.
If it weren’t because of her, Grandma wouldn’t be in this condition...
A fleeting pain and restraint passed through Li Lingyang’s deep black eyes as he spoke, "Is there any treatment plan?"
"We’ve just come up with two options!"
The expert physician said, "First, we employ conservative drug therapy. The clot can be slowly absorbed. This method is stable but slow in effect, and we can’t predict when she might wake up. Second, conduct surgery to remove it. After about forty-eight hours of bed rest post-surgery, she can be conscious. However, there are significant risks involved, so you, as family members, should discuss which plan to implement!"
The surrounding atmosphere grew even heavier.
Li Lingyang’s brows knitted tightly, forming a Sichuan character, and he remained silent for a long while...
"Let’s start with drug treatment for now. I’ll think carefully about the surgery." After all, Grandma is old and might not withstand such major surgery.
"OK."
After the chief expert agreed, the team returned to the office to begin discussing detailed plans...
Another round of chaos ensued.
Countless bodyguards stood guard at the ICU ward entrance, and all of Old Madam Li’s medications were changed to new ones.
In truth, Li Lingyang favored conservative treatment more, but with Grandma’s already fragile health, how long could such a conservative approach sustain her?
After a moment, Su Huimiao arrived with her team.
Ning Yichu, whose relationship with her was always antagonistic, didn’t want to argue during this time and chose to avoid her.
Intending to return after she left...
She entered the elevator absent-mindedly, preparing to go down.
As the doors were about to close—
Suddenly, a large hand forcefully pressed the elevator door.
Ning Yichu was startled to see Li Lingyang stride in.
His tall figure seemed to make the space feel cramped...
"Grandma’s situation was purely accidental, and you were forced into this, so don’t blame yourself too much. The more you blame yourself, the more pleased the enemy will be," the man’s deep voice resonated, laced with faint worry.
Indeed, Li Lingyang was uneasy watching her reactions earlier.
But regardless of the reason, she was the one who had the accident.
Ning Yichu had deep feelings for Old Madam Li; there was no way she could remain untouched.
Just the thought caused her nose to prick with an unspeakable sourness...
"If I had been slightly more careful driving yesterday, paying more attention, perhaps things wouldn’t have turned out like this..."
She was genuinely terrified that Granny Li would remain unconscious forever because of her.
"If, if Grandma has another accident because of me, I could never forgive myself..."
"And about Chen Bao and Ningning, they know Grandma is in trouble, and they desperately want to see her, but I don’t know how to bring them over..."
Su Huimiao’s insults hovered in her ears; even if she tried hard to convince herself that Grandma was drugged before falling onto the hood of her car, she was indirectly guilty!
What would the children think upon hearing these accusations?
Li Lingyang watched her, and the heartache in his dark eyes seemed almost palpable. He stepped forward and held her tightly in his embrace.
Suddenly, her vision went dark, and the faint familiar cold scent surrounded her, making Ning Yichu instantly freeze.
The man’s large hand rested at her waist, and a gentle, reassuring voice descended from above.
"It will be alright, Grandma will be okay."
"The mastermind is deliberately trying to frame you. Even if you had avoided the accident, he would plan the next step. The one who should feel guilty has never been you, and besides..."
"I believe Grandma wouldn’t want to see you like this either...so don’t be sad, okay?"
Despite Ning Yichu’s five-year estrangement from Li Lingyang, she couldn’t deny the comfort his words provided.
This embrace, full of safety, drew a streak of warmth in her heart.
"I understand. I’ll hold on, investigate the events of those years, and bring justice to Grandma...and clear my own name!"
Even during the accident and now, indeed, Li Lingyang always believed in her at heart.
"I’ve recently investigated all the healthcare staff responsible for Grandma’s condition and found the hallucinogen was likely administered by the attending physician..."
Ning Yichu’s face suddenly displayed disbelief, having interacted with that doctor several times!
Amiable and responsible, he always smiled courteously and didn’t seem capable of such actions...
However, given that Li Lingyang mentioned it, it couldn’t be false!
"I’ve already detained and interrogated him, don’t worry, we’ll have results soon..."
Ning Yichu sniffled and decided to tell Li Lingyang about hiring a private investigator.
In Li Lingyang’s eyes, a sudden chill appeared, his thin lips slightly parted, "Coincidentally, Special Assistant Xu also discovered some clues. The surveillance captured that an hour after the incident, Grandma’s car appeared near the northern suburbs. I’m planning to lead a search..."
