Chapter 266 Begging for mercy
Chapter 266 Begging for mercy
Zhao Tianshui sighed helplessly and said, "It's not that I don't want to care, but Mr. Guo is a big shot, several levels higher than me!"
Then she said angrily: "Tell me about your useless husband Li Huaide. Why did you have to mess with him when you could mess with anyone else?"
Zhao Lan cried and begged, "Dad, even if you don't care about Li Huaide, you have to take care of your only grandson Li Jun! He is your own grandson!"
Zhao Tianshui looked embarrassed. Of course he felt sorry for his grandson, but Mr. Guo was not someone he could afford to offend.
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang. It was a call from the hospital.
Her heart instantly rose to her throat, and she pressed the answer button with trembling fingers.
The doctor told her that Guo Xiao's condition suddenly worsened and he needed immediate surgery, otherwise his life would be in danger.
After hearing this, Zhao Lan completely broke down. She grabbed Zhao Tianshui's arm and cried even more sadly.
Zhao Tianshui felt sad when he saw his daughter in so much pain.
He decided to go to Mr. Guo in person to plead for mercy, hoping that he would show mercy and spare Li Huaide.
In a solemn and dignified courtyard, the atmosphere at this moment is extremely tense and depressing.
Mr. Guo's face was as gloomy as water, and the people around him didn't dare to breathe easily, for fear of breaking the suffocating silence.
They all looked silently at the doctors from Union Medical College standing in front of them, as if they could find a glimmer of hope from them.
Mr. Guo's voice was low and firm, and he said in an unquestionable tone: "No matter what method you use, you must cure my grandson!"
His tone was extremely serious, revealing an unshakable determination and majesty.
The expressions of several doctors became solemn. They knew how heavy the burden on their shoulders was, but at the same time they also felt Mr. Guo’s deep concern for his grandson.
Just then, an urgent call came from the guard at the gate of the compound.
"Report, Zhao Tianshui is here, he wants to see you!"
Hearing the name, Mr. Guo frowned slightly and fell into a moment of contemplation.
Then, he decisively gave the order: "Tell him to wait for me in the living room!"
After saying that, he turned around and said to the doctors again: "Okay, you guys go to the hospital first to prepare for treatment!"
After receiving the instructions, the doctors quickly left the scene as if relieved.
At the same time, Zhao Tianshui was waiting anxiously in the living room.
As time passed, he paced back and forth, his heart filled with worry and anxiety.
He knew the importance of this meeting and understood that Mr. Guo’s decision would affect the development of many things.
After a while, Mr. Guo came to the living room.
Zhao Tianshui quickly stood up and said respectfully, "Mr. Guo, I came here today to plead with you. Li Huaide is ignorant and has offended you. Please be magnanimous and forgive him this time."
Mr. Guo looked at Zhao Tianshui indifferently.
"Your son-in-law offended me, and you want me to let him go?"
Zhao Tianshui nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, yes, as long as you can let Li Huaide go, I will do anything."
Mr. Guo sat on the sofa, staring deep into the distance, seemingly lost in thought.
After a while, he slowly said, "This is impossible. Look, my grandson is still lying in the hospital unconscious! Li Huaide and Li Jun, father and son, must pay the price for this!"
After saying that, he turned to look at Zhao Tianshui, his eyes as sharp as torches, as if he could penetrate the other's heart.
Zhao Tianshui couldn't help but tremble all over. Although he had experienced countless fierce battles, he still felt a suffocating sense of oppression in the face of Mr. Guo's powerful pressure.
He was well aware of the huge gap between himself and Mr. Guo, and couldn't help but feel awe in his heart.
Zhao Tianshui tried to calm down and explained:
"Mr. Guo, forget about Li Huaide, but Li Jun is my grandson! Please do me a favor..."
However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Mr. Guo.
Mr. Guo snorted coldly, and raised his voice slightly:
"Oh? Can your grandson just beat people up? Can he be so lawless?"
His tone was full of authority and dissatisfaction.
Zhao Tianshui quickly said:
"Mr. Guo, there must be some misunderstanding here! They didn't have any intention to have a conflict between the kids..."
Mr. Guo narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at Zhao Tianshui sharply, with a barely perceptible sneer on the corner of his mouth.
"You think I don't have evidence?"
Mr. Guo's voice was low and powerful, as if every word contained endless majesty.
He paused and then said:
"In order to become the head of the security department of the steel mill, Li Jun used all means, even violence, torture and forced confessions! What a despicable behavior!"
After saying that, Mr. Guo suddenly threw out a piece of testimony. The paper fluttered in the air and finally landed steadily in front of Zhao Tianshui.
Zhao Tianshui's heart tightened and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
He picked up the testimony with trembling hands, glanced at it quickly, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
The words on the testimony were like a sharp sword, piercing Zhao Tianshui's heart.
His face turned as pale as paper and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Mr. Guo looked at Zhao Tianshui's reaction coldly, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
He said in a deep voice:
"I think it's time for you to go down and do some exercises. You've been in a high position for so long that your thoughts are beginning to become corrupt!"
Zhao Tianshui heard this and stood up hurriedly, saying in panic:
"Mr. Guo, that's not what I meant! I will definitely draw a clear line between myself and Li Jun and Li Huaide. Please believe me!"
Mr. Guo nodded with satisfaction, and his tone softened a little:
"Well, that's more like it. In that case, just go and do it."
Zhao Tianshui nodded repeatedly as if he had been pardoned, then staggered out of the room.
His back looked somewhat lonely and dishevelled, as if he had lost his former majesty.
Zhao Tianshui returned home with a heavy heart. He felt that his reputation and status had been seriously damaged.
He called Li Huaide, scolded him harshly, and said he would cut off all ties with him.
Li Huaide realized the seriousness of the matter, and he decided to go to Mr. Guo to apologize and ask for his forgiveness.
However, when he arrived at Guo's home, he found the door closed and no one answered.
In desperation, Li Huaide could only kneel outside the door and wait until dark.
Finally, Mr. Guo was moved by his sincerity and agreed to give him a chance.
Li Huaide was so grateful that he shed tears. He vowed to mend his ways and become an upright person in the future.
