Song Fan and Sun Gao rushed to the hospital, where four bodyguards were stationed at the door.
Su Ming, looking pale, quickly approached. “President Gu…”
Song Fan signaled him not to say more. Su Ming understood, knowing that walls had ears and they might be under surveillance.
Once inside the room, Song Fan saw Gu Chen lying on the bed.
She went directly to check his pulse. Although his vital signs were normal, the poison was slowly invading his internal organs. If not suppressed in time, Gu Chen’s condition could become critical.
Song Fan took out her acupuncture kit and began sterilizing the needles while asking, “Why did his poisoning relapse? Didn’t he take the medicine I gave him?”
Although the pill made from the leaves of the Snow Red Flower should have suppressed the toxicity, it seemed ineffective now.
Su Ming shook his head. “We’ve been very careful with President Gu’s food and surroundings. No outsiders have gotten close. Maybe it’s the stress from all the recent events. He’s been exhausted.”
Indeed, there had been many sudden issues lately, and Gu Hai’s scheming at the company left Gu Chen no peace.
Song Fan decided not to pursue this line of questioning further. Detoxification was the priority. Fortunately, she had previously kept a Snow Red Flower for emergencies like this.
However, when she contacted Uncle Zhong, he said the Snow Red Flower had already been taken.
“Didn’t you ask your brother, Song Kai, to get the Snow Red Flower? Isn’t Song Kai your twin brother? I’ve seen him before; he shouldn’t be a problem, right?” Uncle Zhong’s voice sounded anxious over the phone.
Song Fan’s heart sank. How could Song Kai have gone to the Fu residence to take the Snow Red Flower without contacting her?
She reassured Uncle Zhong, then requested the surveillance footage from the Fu family. Indeed, she saw Song Kai retrieving the Snow Red Flower. However, Song Kai was now unreachable. He had taken a private plane, but there had been no trace of him after arriving in the capital.
Su Ming, learning of this, was frantic. “Miss Song, what do we do now? Does the Brown Group still have any Snow Red Flowers?”
Su Ming knew only the Snow Red Flower could save Gu Chen, but dealing with the Brown Group meant Song Fan had to negotiate. However, what exactly did Charlie want?
Charlie didn’t just want a partnership with Song Fan. Now, with only him and Peter left in the Brown family, and Peter’s declining health, Charlie naturally wanted to seize power. Additionally, Old Brown’s health was also deteriorating.
Xia Yu was indeed a useful ally—cunning, ruthless, and a competent doctor. Charlie was willing to collaborate with him.
However, Charlie had told Xia Yu that the Snow Red Flower had already been given to Song Fan and was now at Gu Chen’s residence. Whether or not Xia Yu could retrieve the flower depended on his abilities.
Xia Yu wasn’t a fool. Knowing the connections between Song Family and the Fu Family, he understood who was easiest to exploit. Xu Wen spent some money to contact Meng Xia, who agreed to help.
Meng Xia was currently under house arrest at the Song residence but didn’t want to return to the Meng family. As her pregnancy advanced, she still dreamed of becoming Mrs. Brown. However, she was out of money. Meng Yu had taken over the agency agreement and the shop rights sent by Charlie, leaving Meng Xia without a cent. Even the monthly allowance from Charlie went into Meng Yu’s pocket.
When Xu Wen contacted her, promising a million yuan after the job was done, Meng Xia agreed immediately.
She pretended to receive a call from a colleague and deliberately mentioned that Song Fan was poisoned and needed to fetch the Snow Red Flower from the Fu residence. She made sure that Song Kai overheard her. Song Kai, simple-minded and eager to save his sister, believed it immediately.
Xia Yu timed everything perfectly. Once Song Fan was on the plane, Meng Xia executed the plan. Song Kai, determined to save his sister, went to the Fu residence for the Snow Red Flower.
Being a doctor, Xia Yu had poisoned Su Ming slightly, triggering Gu Chen’s poisoning upon contact. Uncle Zhong, even when contacting people in the capital, could only confirm Gu Chen’s relapse and naturally wouldn’t suspect Song Kai, thus handing over the Snow Red Flower.
However, Song Kai had vanished without a trace, and even the Fu Corporation’s resources failed to locate him.
