After the shocking news of Shi Che and Ling Yunshu's engagement broke on the first day, no one expected an even more shocking piece of news the next day—Mrs. Shi was critically ill!
Mrs. Shi, in her days, was also a dominant businesswoman. However, since she had handed over the Shi Group to her son, Shi Che, she had retired behind the scenes and no longer dealt with the internal affairs of the group. Yet, she still attended many grand banquets and charity events, always carrying herself with a dignified and elegant demeanor as a lady of high society. No one expected that she would suddenly fall ill, her life hanging by a thread.
Ling Chuxia's foot was scalded, and yesterday Bai Yixuan helped her rinse it with cold water and insisted on taking her to the hospital.
After coming back, as Ling Chuxia was low in spirits, Bai Yixuan just instructed her to rest well before he left.
