After her rebirth, she became an unattainable woman.

Chapter 78 The Meeting at 2 PM

"Zhang Yao, come with my dad to the ward."

Song Qiao said, looking at Song Jianguo's appearance on the hospital bed.

"Alright! Miss, you go ahead and do your work. Don't worry, Mr. Song, I'll take care of things here."

Song Qiao followed Lu Mingxuan to his office.

"Qiaoqiao, sit down."

Lu Mingxuan took out Song Jianguo's brain scan: "Look, this place is 95% congested. If we had arrived five minutes later, Uncle would be dead."

How did this form?

Song Qiao asked while watching the video, worried.

"Judging from the X-rays from my uncle's last checkup, there was no blockage. My guess is that it was caused by a collision or being hit by a hard object!"

"It must be Jiang Ming!"

Song Qiao had no idea what had happened in the office that morning; the surveillance footage had been taken away, so she had to find a way to retrieve it.

"Thank you, Mingxuan!"

"No need to thank me. I have another plan. After I get in touch with Dr. Jack abroad, I will discuss my uncle's condition with him. If necessary, I will take my uncle abroad for treatment. The brain rehabilitation equipment there is very advanced."

Upon hearing this, Song Qiao looked up at Lu Mingxuan and asked, "Can my dad go now?"

"I can't go for the time being, but I'm communicating with the hospital leaders and we're preparing to purchase the same machine. With this machine, brain patients will have good news."

Lu Mingxuan had been considering this machine for a long time. Not only was it too expensive, but there were only two of them in the world at the moment. If he wanted to buy it, he would have to place an order, and it would take at least six months before it could be produced.

In order to treat Song Jianguo's illness, Lu Mingxuan decided to go and discuss the purchase of this machine with Lu Xinjun later.

Lu Mingxuan also told Song Qiao about this plan, telling him to rest assured that he would definitely cure Song Jianguo.

With Lu Mingxuan's promise, Song Qiao felt at ease. Thinking of Jiang Ming's announcement in the group about the meeting at 2 pm, she decided to go home and pick up Tao Meiling, and also find a senior nurse to take care of her father. She needed to focus all her efforts on dealing with things at the company.

What follows is a tough battle, Song Qiao understands; she has to compete with Jiang Ming for the position of acting chairman.

Things at the company were urgent. After telling Lu Mingxuan about the situation, Song Qiao said, "Mingxuan, I suspect that my father was harmed by Jiang Ming. This morning I also found from the surveillance footage that he placed a surveillance camera in my father's office, but I couldn't find it."

Lu Mingxuan looked at Song Qiao: "Jiang Ming isn't stupid. He did this and left evidence behind. He must have taken the surveillance footage."

Song Qiao, sitting in the chair, seemed to be speaking to Lu Mingxuan, but also to herself: "I just want to know, what exactly happened this morning?"

Lu Mingxuan knew what Song Qiao was planning to do, and quickly reminded her, "You can't go back to that house. Jiang Ming might not have hidden surveillance cameras in the house."

"Where did he put it? In the car?" Song Qiao looked at Lu Mingxuan with a questioning expression.

"In the car, or in the office, or at Zhao Xiaoya's place."

Thinking about how the two of them hadn't gotten anything from the Moon Palace last night, Song Qiao asked, "If it were with Zhao Xiaoya, how would we get it?"

Song Qiao thought for a moment and said, "Let's look for her there while Zhao Xiaoya is not home."

Lu Mingxuan thought this method was very dangerous. If Zhao Xiaoya also had a camera installed, she could very likely be prosecuted for burglary.

"Qiaoqiao, things aren't as bad as you think. Take it slow. The most important thing right now is to stabilize the situation in the company and absolutely not let Jiang Ming become the chairman."

Song Qiao understood that in her previous life, after Jiang Ming became the chairman, she was forced to her death by Jiang Xiaoran, and in this life, she would not let him succeed.

However, Song Qiao hadn't fully grasped the situation in the company and didn't know much about business matters. If the chairman were to be chosen between her and Jiang Ming, everyone would still support him.

"Mingxuan, I'm leaving my father to you. I need to go back to the company." Song Qiao couldn't let Jiang Ming succeed; she had to find a way to stop him.

"Don't worry, I will protect Uncle."

Seeing Song Qiao about to leave, Lu Mingxuan called out to her, "Qiao Qiao, the injury assessment results are out. Take them with you; they might be useful in a critical moment. Also, the audit report is out. Take it with you; this document can show everyone Jiang Ming's wolfish ambitions."

Song Qiao took it and looked at it: "This one is the real one, isn't it?"

"That's right! The ones Jiang Ming has are fake. He gave each of them ten million, but he doesn't know that these four people are my men. They wouldn't be tempted by even a hundred million, let alone ten million."

Song Qiao nodded: "It seems that this document is a special treat I'm serving up for Jiang Ming for today's 2 PM meeting."

Lu Mingxuan nodded: "From now on, you must prioritize your safety and absolutely not get hurt by Jiang Ming."

Song Qiao glanced at Lu Mingxuan and said, "I'm leaving!"

After Song Qiao left, Lu Mingxuan was very worried. Jiang Ming was cunning and ruthless, and he was not sure if she could defeat him.

He really wanted to go and help her, but he had no reason to.

Halfway there, Song Qiao's phone rang. Seeing that it was Tao Meiling calling, she quickly answered it.

"Qiaoqiao, I heard from Jiang Ming that your father is unconscious and on his deathbed. Is that true?"

Tao Meiling's voice trembled when she asked this question.

Song Qiao knew that Jiang Ming was doing this on purpose. In her previous life, Tao Meiling fainted on the spot when she received the news of Song Jianguo's death. From then on, her health deteriorated every day. This time, she had to stabilize her first.

She checked the time; there was still half an hour before the meeting, and she had to go home.

"Mom! Don't listen to Jiang Ming. Dad did have a slight health problem, but he's fine now. I'm coming home to pick you up. You can pack your things and go to the hospital to be with Dad."

Song Qiao was determined not to let Jiang Ming's scheme succeed. Worried that Tao Meiling was in danger, she decided to go home first, take Tao Meiling to the hospital, and then rush back to the company.

On the way, Song Qiao drove as fast as she could and arrived home ten minutes later. Tao Meiling was already in a panic at home. When she saw her daughter come home, she hurriedly hugged her: "Qiao Qiao, where's your dad?"

"Mom! Dad is in the hospital. The surgery was successful. It was performed by Lu Mingxuan. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would be nervous."

When Tao Meiling heard that Song Jianguo had undergone surgery at the hospital, her heart pounded. Only when she heard her daughter say that the surgery was successful did she breathe a sigh of relief.

"Qiaoqiao, I think we should go to the hospital now?"

Tao Meiling didn't even want to cook anymore; she just wanted to see Song Jianguo was alright with her own eyes.

"Mom! There's something I have to remind you of. When you're at the hospital watching over Dad, make sure no one gets close to him."

Tao Meiling seemed to have heard that there was a reason for Song Jianguo's illness, and looked at Song Qiao with concern: "What do you mean? Did someone kill your father because he got sick?"

Song Qiao thought for a moment and said, "I'm just guessing, just be careful."

Hearing this, Tao Meiling became even more nervous: "Why did they harm your father?"

At this point, I had no choice but to tell the truth: "Mom! I suspect it's Jiang Ming, but I have no proof. He wants to become the chairman of the urban construction company."

Upon hearing Song Qiao's words, Tao Meiling nervously looked her over: "Qiao Qiao, you... has Jiang Ming been treating you badly?"

When Song Qiao came out in the morning, she had used concealer, so it wasn't visible from a distance, but it was still clear up close that there was a bruise around her eye.

"Qiaoqiao, did he also slap you in the face?"
