Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Chapter 1279 Stroke
Suburban, Tianshu Group

There was a knock on the president's office!
"Come in!" Xue Ling said without raising his head.

The door opened and Secretary Chen lowered his voice: "Mr. Xue, your best friend Xiao Jiaxue is here."

Xue Ling was stunned for a moment, then turned the pen in his hand.

"Why doesn't she come in? Did you stop her?"

"No." Secretary Chen whispered in embarrassment: "She...she came in a wheelchair. There is a small threshold at the door of your office, so you shouldn't be able to get in."

Xue Ling raised his eyebrows in surprise and dropped the pen.

"What happened to her? Why is she suddenly in a wheelchair?"

She hurriedly left her seat, walked around the desk, and walked out quickly.

I saw Xiao Jiaxue, whom I hadn't seen for a while, sitting in an automatic wheelchair, with a big fat hand controlling the remote control. When he saw her coming out, his eyes were sad and he gave her a helpless smile.

Xue Ling was startled and ran over quickly.

"Jiaxue, you...what's going on?"

Xiao Jiaxue laughed bitterly and said: "...I suddenly suffered an acute stroke a while ago."

what? !

Xue Ling stared in disbelief: "How is that possible?! You are not 50 years old yet!"

"Because I'm too fat." Xiao Jiaxue whispered: "High blood pressure and high blood lipids are very annoying. Halfway through watching TV that day, I suddenly couldn't drink water and fell on the sofa. Fortunately, my husband came over after a while and saw After I felt something was wrong, I quickly called [-]. After staying in the hospital for more than half a month, I finally got better. I couldn't breathe when I walked these days, so I just used this wheelchair."

Xue Ling frowned and said, "Let's go, I'll push you to the lounge next door."

After a while, Secretary Chen brought a plate of fruit.

Xiao Jiaxue ate an orange slowly and explained: "I came here to tell you that last time you asked a friend to help us get all the adoption materials, but unfortunately I have too much time to take care of myself now, so I had to withdraw the application."

Because her husband is not a native of the same country, the adoption process for the two of them was much more complicated than for other people. They were stuck again and again and could not get through.

Until a while ago, Xue Ling asked a familiar friend for help and finally helped them prepare the materials and hand them over.Unexpectedly, before the child was adopted, he suddenly suffered a stroke and had to give up for the time being.

Xue Ling nodded slowly: "Take care of yourself first."

Xiao Jiaxue's eyes were red and she whispered: "When I was lying on the bed motionless, I could do nothing but shed tears. My mom and dad came and called me crying, and I just kept crying. I felt like It's like dying. Lingling, let me tell you... I have never been so scared in my life. It feels so scary... I want to cry when I think about it now."

"Don't be afraid." Xue Ling comforted her gently: "Now that medical technology is advanced, you will be fine soon. By the way, do you need me to introduce a doctor? I'll ask Ah Huan to introduce you to an authoritative doctor in the relevant profession." "Yes. Xiao Jiaxue choked up: "This is another reason why I came here specially today."

Xue Ling couldn't help but ask: "When you fell ill, why didn't someone notify me?"

"You are so busy every day, and you still have several children to take care of." Xiao Jiaxue shook his head: "How can I let you run around? Besides, you are not a doctor, so you can't help if you go. It will only add more worries. Rather than fear, it’s better not to.”

Xue Ling nodded: "I will contact Ah Huan in a moment and give him your name and mobile phone number."

"Thank you." Xiao Jiaxue suddenly laughed, "I always seem to be causing you trouble..."

"What are you talking about?" Xue Ling glanced at her angrily and said, "Do friends care about each other like this? You didn't help me much in the past? You introduced me to translators, sent me money from time to time, and helped me run the post office. Doesn’t that count as busy?”

"It's been decades!" Xiao Jiaxue squinted her eyes and became melancholy: "It's been decades in the blink of an eye... too fast... too fast! Lingling, I look at myself in the mirror now, There are always some things that I can't react to - I can't accept myself as I am now. I seem to be really old."

"No way!" Xue Ling chuckled: "You are just so fat and fat, you will not age. You are not 50 years old yet! If you are an old man now, how can you make those seventy-year-olds feel embarrassed, right?"

Xiao Jiaxue smiled helplessly: "I know my destiny at fifty, so it's time for me to accept my fate."

Seeing that her condition was really bad, Xue Ling couldn't help but ask, "Where is your husband? Why didn't he come out with you?"

"He went to work." Xiao Jiaxue explained: "He took care of me... but he still had to make money! I had already applied for early retirement with my employer. When my boss knew about my situation early in the morning, he quickly approved it. In the future, I can He's just waiting to get his pension to live. He still has a few years left before retirement, and in a situation like his, he usually re-employs, so he probably won't be able to retire within ten years."

"It's good to retire." Xue Ling said warmly, "This way I can take good care of my health at home and don't have to worry about work."

Xiao Jiaxue chuckled and asked, "When are you going to retire? I think you are born to be a hard worker. I guess you won't be willing to retire even if I ask you to."

"It's almost over." Xue Ling explained: "I'm working hard to train my successor, and I believe it won't take too long to enter a semi-retired state. The summer vacation is almost over, and I plan to take a few days off to take the elderly and children to a summer resort. , stay for a few days and relax.”

"Successor?" Xiao Jiaxue asked, "Who is your eldest son?"

Xue Ling shook his head: "He is still studying. He will not graduate in a few years. I have a few department managers who are pretty good, and a new assistant - Zheng Duoduo. He is Uncle Zheng's youngest son, majoring in aviation. Graduated. After he came, I found that he had good potential. Young people learn quickly and adapt quickly, which immediately reduced my workload. I plan to focus on training him to help me manage 'Tianshu'."

"That's the right thing to do!" Xiao Jiaxue couldn't help but ridicule: "Do you really think you can work for a lifetime until the moment you die of old age? You can have appropriate jobs, but they should be gradually reduced. Nowadays, corporate competition is so fierce, you No matter how powerful you are, no matter how good your ideas are, it can't always be good, right? How can young people take the lead? You, after all, still have to make room for young people."

"Of course, of course." Xue Ling smiled and said: "No matter how old the hero is, he will grow old, and no matter how sharp the knife is, it will become dull one day. I didn't think I was very powerful, nor did I think I could be powerful all my life. Young people They have good energy and novel ideas. Even if they are unable to make a big contribution to society for the time being and succeed immediately, they will come up sooner or later and replace all the old guys like us. Only when talented people emerge from generation to generation can society develop greatly. .”

Xiao Jiaxue gave a thumbs up and whispered: "This kind of mentality is the correct one. I'm so afraid that you will always think that you are indomitable and can stand up to you for the rest of your life. Even if you can continue to make money in the rest of your life, I still hope that you will retreat when you need to. Don’t let yourself be too tired. People, except for being ignorant for more than ten years and aging for more than ten years, busy with studying and growing up, busy with family, busy with children, busy with old people, busy with making money and busy running around, after all, you still have a few more years. Happy and happy? Right?"

"Exactly." Xue Ling squinted his eyes and praised with a smile: "Your words are full of philosophy! This is the first time I hear you say such clear words."

Xiao Jiaxue chuckled: "Because I almost died. If I don't understand everything, I probably won't have a chance."
