Chapter 629: Chapter 629: His Ambition for the Top Position
Lai Shengxia went with Qin Yueru to the hospital. After asking the service desk, she found Han Jifeng’s ward. It was already after 10 o’clock at night.
Han Jifeng leaned against the headboard, his shirt stained with blood, having changed into hospital clothes.
Upon seeing her son, Qin Yueru walked over.
“Are you alright?” She had been anxious all the way, and now, seeing her son’s gaunt face, she grew even more worried: “After the car accident, did the doctor give you a full body check?”
Han Jifeng explained, “I just happened to feel stomach discomfort, nothing else.” Dıscover more novels at 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝗇𝖾𝗍
“You still should have a checkup.”
Qin Yueru was not reassured.
With her husband passed away, she was only left with this son.
If something else happened to her son, how would she live on?
Qin Yueru sat by the bed, examining Han Jifeng from head to toe, ensuring he was intact, and breathed a sigh of relief, then continued, “I’ll go talk to the doctor. Even if we don’t do an MRI, we should at least get a CT scan for the head. I read in the news before that a young man looked fine after a car accident, but after a friend slapped his head, he just…”
At the doorway, Lai Shengxia picked up Qin Yueru’s words.
Han Jifeng also noticed her.
Lai Shengxia didn’t look at Han Jifeng but said to Qin Yueru, “Auntie, you stay with Jifeng. I’ll call the doctor over. The doctor will know the specifics best.”
“Shengxia is right,” Qin Yueru nodded, her brows slightly relaxed.
Watching Lai Shengxia turn and leave the ward, Qin Yueru withdrew her gaze and looked at her son, sighing softly, “I really couldn’t find anyone else. I could only call Shengxia. She came out of the house without any hesitation. I used to be too prejudiced against her.”
Han Jifeng didn’t pick up on this subject but said, “I should stay here tonight; later, I’ll call a car to take you back.”
Qin Yueru sensed her son’s distant attitude towards Lai Shengxia. At least… she no longer felt that persistent fixation. Over the past six months, she had noticed her son’s changes. In addition to career advancement, he had become increasingly composed, no longer obsessing over emotional issues as he had before.
Ever since Han Jifeng and Lai Shengxia broke up, in Qin Yueru’s eyes, the name Lai Shengxia became the dead end that her son could not move past.
But now, the relationship between the two seemed to have changed.
Her son was no longer clinging to Lai Shengxia.
On the contrary, it was Lai Shengxia who took the initiative to find Han Jifeng.
“You and Shengxia—” Qin Yueru couldn’t help asking.
Han Jifeng cut off his mother’s words: “Don’t call her again in the future. When I get back, I’ll give you a few phone numbers. If you can’t reach me and there’s an issue, contact them instead.”
For a moment, Qin Yueru fell silent.
The ward quieted down.
Then, Lai Shengxia brought the doctor over.
The doctor informed Qin Yueru of Han Jifeng’s condition—mainly gastric spasms, combined with excessive emotional fluctuation, which caused the vomiting of blood. He needed to rest and recover, or else it could lead to chronic problems.
“How could you get so upset?”
Qin Yueru turned her head towards the bed.
After the doctor arrived, Han Jifeng closed his eyes to rest.
Lai Shengxia stood against the wall. These past couple of days, she had learned from her mother that Han Jifeng had been very close with Lai Wenyan’s party recently. Lai Wenyan speculated that Han Jifeng might resign from his position as the head of the Judicial Administration Bureau and enter the senatorial election at the local level.
And then, become a National Congress Member from a local senator.
If Han Jifeng truly aimed to be a Councilman, it indicated his ambition for that position.
