After hanging up the phone, Zhuang Ling opened his laptop again and typed on the keyboard for a while. He then heaved a sigh of relief and edited the written content into an email, sending it out.
He then leaned back on the sofa, closed his eyes, and placed one hand on his forehead. He had no idea what the intentions were of the person who wrote this exposé, nor how much the media had captured of him when they saw the "business opportunity".
The news of Shu Boheng falling ill can definitely not be kept hidden for long. Perhaps after today, it might be exposed by some sensitive entertainment media, who will then dispatch people to wait at the hospital's back entrance.
Zhuang Ling would definitely not allow this matter to happen. Instead of letting the whole world know about Shu Boheng's physical condition, Zhuang Ling would rather prefer this matter to end with "racing" and "keeping someone as a mistress".
As for why the person who exposed the incident did not release the footage of the police cars clearing the way behind, they no longer had the capacity to consider it.
He only knew that in this lifetime, he couldn't let Shu Boheng be burdened because of him anymore, and he couldn't let him exhaust himself for his sake again.
Zhuang Ling recalled in his past life when similar things about him had been exposed. However, not only did he not care, but he also had a mentality of breaking the jar entirely. Eventually, he was criticized more and more severely, almost completely ruining his promising future.
Of course, by that time I had already terminated my contract with Tianheng. Revealing an illicit relationship with my former employer at this moment is indeed intriguing and thought-provoking.
Some vicious media even directly claimed themselves as "burning the bridge after crossing the river" and "ungrateful; killing the donkey that helped grind the millstone," treating Tianheng merely as a stepping stone, completely disregarding the favor of their discovery and nurturing. They even resorted to any means necessary to climb into their former boss's bed, only to kick him away when they found no more value in using him.
And at that moment, Shu Boheng had just awakened from a coma. His heart failure had progressed to stage two, due to the relentless work and lack of sleep that caused him to faint in his office. He was immediately discovered by his assistant and rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. After a day and night, he finally escaped danger. However, as soon as he woke up, he had to face this whole mess and his own deserving of punishment attitude.
He remembers that at that time Shu Boheng couldn't even get out of bed, yet he demanded his assistant to wheel him to the press conference venue in a wheelchair. Despite being extremely weak, he confidently declared to the reporters below the stage that it was his idea first and that there was nothing wrong with Zhuang Ling wanting to separate from him. He questioned why the media would have any doubts about him.
However, in the face of his calm and profound gaze, even the most eloquent journalist was silent like a cicada in winter.
The press conference ended without any significant outcome.
Zhuang Ling remembered his past self, who stood there foolishly, watching his assistant push him farther and farther along the path that others had cleared for him. His back, at some point, had become so thin and frail, making one's eyes ache just by looking at it.
However, in the end, he did not catch up.
It is said that he vomited blood and fainted again as soon as he left the venue and went outside. It is said that within a short half hour of rescue, two critically ill notifications were issued, but at that time, he couldn't even find someone to help him sign the documents.
I've heard, just heard.
Zhuang Ling couldn't control his emotions any longer when he thought of this, and tears welled up in his eyes. He lifted his head and slapped himself hard.
He couldn't control his desire to see Shu Boheng, but he understood that if he went out now, he would immediately be surrounded by a group of investigative journalists. In order to avoid causing trouble for him any further, he had to stay indoors from today onwards until the matter was resolved.
But will Shu Boheng misunderstand that she is just interested in him for a short while and will only go to the hospital once and then stop going?
