After I Became Famous, the CEO Wants Remarriage
Chapter 247 - Chapter 247 Chapter 247 The Show-off President Li

Chapter 247: Chapter 247: The Show-off President Li! Chapter 247: Chapter 247: The Show-off President Li! Special Assistant Xu excitedly said, “President Li, Lady Ning, Mr. Johnny is very satisfied with our company’s proposal and he will arrive in Imperial City to sign the contract the day after tomorrow evening. He hopes you will attend with Lady Ning.”

Li Lingyang seemed thoughtful, “Chu Chu, you heard it too. Mr. Johnny wants you and I to be there together. At that time, come and be my translator secretary. I’ll pay you five hundred thousand per hour, how about that?”

Of course, cooperation and all aren’t important, the key is to be able to stay with her!

Five hundred thousand an hour…

She had been swindled out of so much money by Shen Jiangqing before, this hourly rate was still attractive to her, but she also needed to make sure she was free that evening.

“Depends on my mood!”

“No problem,” Li Lingyang’s eyes brightened. If she hadn’t refused, there was hope!

“I need to leave first, I have to pick up my child.”

“Okay, I’ll drive you.”

Li Lingyang curved his lips, grabbed his coat and car keys, and followed.

…

On the other end.

After finishing work, Fan Yuke went to the hospital.

Her father had died early, and she had been brought up through hard work by her mother. The two depended on each other and had a deep relationship.

Although life was a bit tough, being together with her mother was a comfort.

However, disaster always strikes at the weakest, and misfortune seeks out the distressed…

Five years ago, not long after she had entered the entertainment industry and life was looking up, her mother was diagnosed with stomach cancer!

Luckily, it was detected early. Plus, she had spent all her earnings on her mother’s treatment, keeping it under control. The main issue was the high risk of cancer recurrence, necessitating regular check-ups.

And recently…

Things seemed a bit grim.

Fortunately, her career had picked up slightly over the past two years, and she had earned more money. The doctor she found for her mother was much more skilled than before, but it was still stomach cancer. Her mother kept losing weight, and that was a constant thorn in Fan Yuke’s heart!

Fan Yuke easily made her way to her mother’s hospital room.

She saw Mrs. Fan, wearing a blue and white hospital gown, looking haggard, standing by the cabinet, wiping something with a cloth.

So many years had passed, but her mother’s industrious habits hadn’t changed…

Her eyes involuntarily teared up as she walked in, “Mom, I’m here to see you.”

Hearing her voice, Mrs. Fan’s eyes suddenly lit up, and she smiled tenderly, “Yuke, you’re here? Have you eaten yet? Do you want Mom to accompany you to the cafeteria?”

Fan Yuke felt even more upset.

“No need, Mom, I’ve already eaten.”

“You entertainers are so busy, often working day and night, shooting movies around the clock, it’s common to have stomach issues…” Mid-sentence, Mrs. Fan’s eyes reddened, “It’s all my illness dragging you down! If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have taken all sorts of messy advertisements in the early years, and you wouldn’t have been exploited by the company to this extent, let alone being constantly targeted and slandered by those shameless paparazzi…”

Fan Yuke knew her mother must have seen the recent gossip about her and Mu Bailang. Luckily, she had been frequently rumored about over the years, so her mother probably didn’t think too much of it…

“Mom, how can you say that? You’re my mother, never a burden! Besides, it’s hard to make a name for ourselves in the fiercely competitive entertainment industry. And you know I’m not that smart, being where I am now is already my limit!”

Mrs. Fan sighed softly, torn between sadness and joy.

“Mom, don’t think like that anymore. What you need to do is just focus on getting better. One day, when I’m successful, I still want us to walk the red carpet together.”

Mrs. Fan seemed to harbor a glimmer of hope, a new brightness in her eyes, but then her face suddenly turned deathly pale.

With a “wow” sound, she bent over and violently vomited a mouthful of fresh blood.

She instinctively tried to hide the blood, but how could Yuke not see it?

His mother was vomiting blood!

Hadn’t they said her condition was under control?

What was happening?

Yuke felt a gut-wrenching pain and quickly called for a doctor.

After examining her, the doctor called Yuke to his office.

Yuke anxiously said, “Dr. Xu, didn’t you say my mom had shown great improvement? Why has it gotten worse again?”

Dr. Xu furrowed his brows, “Your mom’s stomach cancer was detected early, and we thought that removing the cancerous part would keep it under control, but it seems now that her cancer cells might have spread…”

“What? This is crucial, why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

“The results just came out, I was about to inform you.”

Yuke staggered, recalling his mother had half of her stomach surgically removed years ago. Were chemotherapy and other such treatments their only option now? Such methods would be a tremendous torture for her!

Dr. Xu obviously understood Yuke’s thoughts and said wistfully, “It would be great if we could get the foreign gastric cancer miracle drug.”

Yuke was stunned for a moment, then quickly caught the main point and asked eagerly, “Miracle drug? What miracle drug?!”

“There is a biological lab abroad that developed a drug specifically for gastric cancer. Apparently, a large group of patients participating in this trial have seen significant control over their conditions–it’s considered a major milestone in medical history! Unfortunately, this drug is in high demand, and not even wealthy people in the upper echelons of Imperial City can get it, let alone ordinary people like us.”

A firm determination glinted in Yuke’s eyes, “As long as it can save my mom, no matter how expensive or difficult it is to obtain, I must get it!”

Dr. Xu was moved as well and began reaching out to his colleagues to see if there was a way to obtain it.

Yuke wasn’t making this assertion without any basis.

She knew the real identity of Ning Yichu–Majesty!

She was a world-renowned cardiologist, with far more medical resources…

She immediately called Ning Yichu to inquire about the situation.

Knowing that her aunt’s condition had changed, Ning Yichu wasted no time in gathering information, but the medical community, not too big, yet not too small, especially with Ning Yichu’s Majesty identity being very low-profile, had hardly any direct connections with the foreign labs.

Even so, she still went out of her way, putting connections on the line without caring if her identity was exposed…

Finally, after a busy night, she managed to make several connections and obtained the contact information for a lab manager in the Asian District.

She immediately gave the contact information to Yuke…

After all this effort, it was already late at night, yet sleep was the last thing on her mind.

If it really came down to it, she would go ask Li Lingyang or Mo Baiyou for help.

Favors and debts could be thought of later!

Meanwhile, Li Lingyang had deliberately taken a photo of the jade sculptures in his office and casually posted it to his social media; no caption necessary, as if those sculptures said it all.

Soon after, likes and comments started pouring in.

Leading the charge was Mu Bailang, “Is that necessary? Plus, it doesn’t really match your office, does it?”
