49 Apology; The Zhou Family Feels as Though the Sky Is Falling
The Wan family could be considered a powerful family in the entire capital.
However, in front of the Zhou family, they were just slightly bigger ants.
If the Zhou family’s old master, Zhou Guotao, wanted to destroy the Wan family, all he had to do was say the word.
He had just offended the person Zhou Guotao called ‘kid’?
‘This…’
The more Wan Lang thought about it, the more terrified he became.
Finally, he bowed slightly and cupped his fists. “Uh… Brother Lin Fan, it was all a misunderstanding just now… I’m sorry…”
Wan Lang was a second-generation rich kid, and he cared about his reputation the most.
Making him bow and apologize on his own initiative was definitely something very difficult to do.
However, no matter how difficult it was, he had to do it.
It was because Wan Lang knew that if he did not appease Lin Fan today…
Tomorrow, perhaps the entire Wan family would face a terrifying disaster.
Lin Fan glanced at Wan Lang and said, “As a person, one should always be calm and collected. An apology this time can solve the problem, but as for the next time… that’ll be hard to say.”
“Yes, ye … Brother Lin Fan, you’re right.” Wan Lang nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
Lin Fan said, “Also, I didn’t mean to provoke you. It’s just that I’m determined to get this 100-year ginseng and can’t be bothered to compete with others.”
If Lin Fan had said something like that earlier, Wan Lang would have definitely spat in his face.
He was too lazy to keep bidding, so he directly increased the price by a few million. A few million?
‘Do you think I’m stupid?’
However, Wan Lang did not dare to have such thoughts now.
A person who was on good terms with the old master of the Zhou family would not even bother to lie.
He had no choice but to bow even lower and nod in agreement.
After Wan Lang left, Liu Yuhang burst out laughing.
“Brother Lin Fan, did you know? I’ve never seen Wan Lang act so submissively before. He was just like fish on a chopping block! Cool! It’s so cool!”
Lin Fan chuckled and shook his head as he strolled outside.
The two of them got into the Mercedes-Benz S500. Just as they drove past the entrance where the elevators were, they happened to see an old man lying on the ground with his hand on his chest.
A shocked beautiful woman was beside him.
Lin fan took a closer look. It was Zhou Guotao and his granddaughter.
“Stop the car!” Lin Fan shouted.
Liu Yuhang slammed on the brakes. His expression changed as he followed Lin Fan.
“Hurry! Hurry and send my grandfather to the hospital!” the beauty shouted.
Liu Yuhang and Lin Fan did not hesitate. They lifted Zhou Guotao up and quickly got into the car. They headed to the nearest hospital.
On the way, the beautiful woman held Zhou Guotao’s old hands tightly, her tears falling like rain.
“Grandpa, Grandpa… You’ll definitely be fine, you’ll definitely be fine…”
At this moment, she was like a frightened deer, no longer as calm and composed as before.
“Hurry up, hurry up!”
Liu Yuhang wanted to drive faster, but there were too many cars in the capital, and the traffic was too heavy.
“I’ll drive,” Lin Fan said.
Liu Yuhang immediately thought of Lin Fan’s superb driving skills and immediately switched seats with him.
“Is it okay to violate the rules?” Lin Fan asked.
“Of course, there’s no problem!” Liu Yuhang said.
Boom!
After Lin Fan got Liu Yuhang’s confirmation, he stepped on the gas and sped through the narrow alleys and between cars. No matter what was in front of him, he continued to drive at top speed.
In less than ten minutes, the Mercedes-Benz S500 came to a steady stop at the entrance of the hospital.
The beautiful woman had already made several calls in the car.
At that moment, a large group of doctors and nurses were already waiting at the entrance.
When they saw the Mercedes-Benz S500, they swarmed over and carried Zhou Guotao out on a stretcher. They checked and treated Zhou Guotao as they walked quickly to the ward.
Outside the VIP ward.
The beauty’s tears did not stop.
On one hand, she was worried about her grandfather’s health.
On the other hand, she had gone out with her grandfather alone this time. What if her grandfather… She really did not know what to do.
Thud, thud, thud!
At this moment, a series of hurried footsteps could be heard in the distance.
A large group of luxuriously dressed men and women quickly walked over.
Among them, Zhou Zhen, who was about 50 years old and had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, looked at the beautiful woman and said, “Zishan, what’s going on?”
Zhou Zhen, the current head of the Zhou family, was also Zhou Zishan’s father.
Zhou Zishan wiped away the tears on her face and said honestly, “After I went out with Grandpa today, we went straight to Xinyue Hotel’s auction. As soon as we arrived at the parking lot, Grandpa suddenly fell ill…”
At this point, Zhou Zishan’s tears could not help but fall again.
“Xinyue Hotel?” someone asked. “Did the old man eat anything?”
Zhou Zishan replied, “Grandpa had a cup of pu’er tea and a piece of cake… And… he drank a cup of wine…”
“What? The old man’s health isn’t good, so why did you let him drink? Nonsense!” Zhou Zhen shouted.
Beside her, Zhou Shihong, who looked similar to Zhou Zhen, looked at the Han Emperor Maotai that looked like a dragon-shaped imperial jade seal. He asked, “Is this what he drank?”
“Yes, it is,” Zhou Zishan replied.
“Brother, you can’t blame Zishan for this,” Zhou Shihong said. “The old master drank Han Emperor Maotai. Even we might not have been able to stop him.”
When Zhou Zhen heard this, his expression relaxed slightly.
He knew very well how much the old man liked Han Emperor Maotai.
“Did you get this wine from Xinyue Hotel?” he asked.
“He gave it to Grandpa.” Zhou Zishan pointed at Lin Fan, who was not too far away. “He’s also the one who sent Grandpa to the hospital in time.”
Everyone from the Zhou family looked at Lin Fan.
Liu Yuhang’s heart tightened, and he quickly explained, “We were drinking in the private room at that time. Old Master Zhou smelled the wine and took the initiative to come in…
“After that, we saw Elder Zhou lying on the ground in the parking lot, so we sent him to the hospital.”
It was no wonder Liu Yuhang was so nervous.
After all, the power of the Zhou family was too terrifying.
If the Zhou family thought that they had intentionally tried to harm Zhou Guotao, that would be a very terrifying thing.
Zhou Zishan, who was beside him, added, “He’s right… Also, Grandpa has a very high opinion of Lin Fan.”
“Oh?”
Zhou Zhen, Zhou Shihong, and the others were all surprised.
At the same time, they started to size Lin Fan up.
They knew very well how high the old man’s standards were.
He had a very high evaluation of a young man?
That was truly unbelievable.
“Thank you for sending the old man to the hospital,” Zhou Zhen said.
Liu Yuhang heaved a sigh of relief and said, “You’re welcome. It’s what we should do…”
Creak!
At this moment, the door to the VIP ward opened.
A few doctors walked out with tired faces.
“How’s my dad?” asked Zhou Zhen.
The bald doctor who stood at the front opened his mouth, and his face was contorted.
It would have been fine if it were an ordinary patient.
However, the person lying inside was Old Master Zhou, Zhou Guotao!
If he did not handle it well, not to mention him but even the entire hospital would not be able to bear the responsibility!
“Doctor, you can just be direct,” Zhou Zhen said after taking a deep breath.
“For the time being, we can only use equipment and medicine to keep the old man alive for a few hours,” the bald doctor said carefully.
“BOOM!”
The Zhou family felt as though the sky was falling!
