Chapter 562 Secretary Huang Arrives
As Grandma Dong spoke, she stared at Secretary Dong with an inquiring look, hoping to find a reasonable explanation from his face.
Secretary Dong sat on the hospital bed with his back leaning against a soft pillow. Although his face looked a little haggard, his eyes still revealed determination and calmness.
Hearing Grandma Dong's question, he did not answer immediately, but closed his eyes slightly and remained silent for a moment, as if he was considering his words.
After a while, he slowly opened his eyes and gently shook his head. His gray hair swayed gently with the movement, as if every silver hair carried the wisdom and vicissitudes of time.
"Old woman,"
Secretary Dong's voice was low and magnetic, with an unquestionable tone.
"The fact that Jianguo brought me medicine is something we should keep to ourselves from now on, and we are not allowed to mention it to anyone else. Think about it, how can things in this world be that simple?"
"The environment we are in may seem calm, but it is actually full of undercurrents. The origin of this medicine is unusual, and we might accidentally leak the news."
"If those people with ulterior motives who keep an eye on other people's every move heard this, it would cause a huge mess. Jianguo would be in a lot of trouble!"
"When we do things, we can't just think about ourselves. We have to think more about others and not push Jianguo into the fire pit."
Secretary Dong looked past Grandma Dong and towards Wang Jianguo who was standing quietly beside her, his eyes full of concern and warning.
Secretary Dong's heartfelt words were like the warm sunshine in spring, shining straight into Wang Jianguo's heart and making him feel indescribably moved.
Wang Jianguo's thoughts instantly drifted back to the frivolous days in the old city. At that time, he was young and energetic, and had just tasted the taste of success. He felt a little dizzy.
Having obtained this magical elixir by chance, he suddenly felt as if he owned the whole world. He couldn't help but take it out to show off wherever he went, completely unaware that danger was approaching step by step.
Those who had been hiding in the dark and coveting the elixir for a long time began to quietly target him like vicious wolves, carefully designing traps, taking advantage of his vanity and carelessness, and luring him into the trap step by step.
Not only did he suffer a heavy blow in business, almost losing everything he had, but he also implicated many of his sincere friends and relatives. Those days were simply a nightmare in his life.
Now, Wang Jianguo, who has gone through hardships, has long shed his youthfulness and recklessness and has become mature and steady. Just when Secretary Dong stopped Grandma Dong, his heart suddenly clenched, and he secretly thanked Secretary Dong for his decisiveness.
In fact, even if Secretary Dong did not come out to stop her, he would have stood up to stop Grandma Dong without hesitation. He knew very well that these material possessions that once made him glorious and glorious also made him miserable.
If it is not handled properly, the disaster will come like a flood. He no longer wants to let the loved ones around him get hurt because of these empty things. The pain he once suffered is already unforgettable, and he does not want to repeat the same mistake.
The ward fell into a long silence, with only the rustling sound of the curtains in the breeze outside the window occasionally breaking the solemn atmosphere.
Secretary Dong, Grandma Dong and Wang Jianguo were each immersed in memories of the past and thoughts about the future, but they tacitly reached a tacit understanding to guard this secret that concerned life and death, and friendship.
They know that in this complex world, sometimes silence is the best protection.
In the ward, several people sat together, chatting about some trivial matters of life and interesting things in the past. Although the atmosphere was not very warm, it was warm and leisurely.
The warm yellow light sprinkled on everyone's face, reflecting their focused or relaxed expressions. At this moment, a crisp knock on the door suddenly broke the silence.
"Boom, boom, boom," the sound was neither fast nor slow, but it seemed to carry some special rhythm as it echoed in the ward.
Secretary Dong was originally leaning slightly against the head of the bed, talking quietly with Grandma Dong. When he heard the knock on the door, he sat up slightly and cleared his throat.
He said in full voice, "Come in." The voice echoed in the room with an unquestionable majesty.
As Secretary Dong finished speaking, the door of the ward was slowly pushed open. A slender figure came into everyone's sight, and a man walked into the room with steady steps.
This man was tall and thin, with a figure like a tall poplar, giving people a sense of imposingness. He was wearing a light gray plaid suit, the fabric looked of fine quality.
Under the light, it glows slightly, and each grid line seems to be carefully designed, neat and stylish, showing the competence of people in the workplace while exuding a sense of elegance.
Looking up, the man is wearing a pair of thick glasses with classic black-framed frames, which look calm and elegant.
The eyes behind the lenses reveal a deep gaze, as if they can see through everything in the world, and the occasional flashes of light seem to speak of his wisdom and alertness.
His hair was even more eye-catching. It was all carefully combed back into the most popular slicked-back style of the time. Every strand of hair was neat and tidy without a trace of disorder.
The gloss of the hair wax makes the hair look black and shiny, and the whole person's spirit is immediately highlighted, appearing exceptionally neat and tidy, as if he is an elite who walked out of a fashion magazine.
Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo were sitting on chairs nearby, and their attention was instantly attracted by the uninvited guest.
They looked at each other subconsciously, and their eyes conveyed the same message - they guessed that this man should be Secretary Huang that Secretary Dong had mentioned before.
Wang Jianguo raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of curiosity and inquiry in his eyes, as if wondering what kind of news Secretary Huang would bring next.
Zhao Shuzhuo nodded slightly, as if responding to Wang Jianguo's gaze, while also secretly confirming his own judgment in his heart.
When Secretary Dong and Grandma Dong saw the visitor, a faint smile appeared on their faces, as if they had been looking forward to the arrival of Secretary Huang.
The atmosphere in the entire ward is quietly changing with the appearance of Secretary Huang, and a new communication and story seems to be about to begin.
The door of the ward was gently pushed open, and Secretary Huang's slender and agile figure flashed in quickly. He stood straight, his steps were urgent but steady, and he stepped to Secretary Dong's bed in a few steps.
As soon as he stood still, a brilliant smile broke out on his face, which was full of joy, concern and a hint of relief. His eyes were flashing with irrepressible excitement, as if all the light in the ward was gathered in his eyes at this moment.
