The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief

Chapter 1247 - 622: Song Qiao Awakens

At this moment, Xiaoye rushed in from outside, his voice tinged with excitement as he exclaimed, "Boss... Sister Qiao has woken up..."

The man, who had been exuding a murderous aura, immediately opened his eyes upon hearing Xiaoye’s voice and looked towards him, frowning and asking, "What did you just say?"

Seeing Nan Moyan gripping Tan Shuya’s neck, Xiaoye was briefly stunned. He snapped back to his senses upon hearing Nan Moyan’s voice, quickly running to his boss’s side, excitement in his tone, and said, "Boss, Sister Qiao has woken up. The hospital called just now, saying Sister Qiao has woken up... Boss, shouldn’t you let go of this woman? She looks like she’s about to pass out..."

Sister Qiao naturally referred to Song Qiao.

Nan Moyan glanced down at Tan Shuya, who was starting to roll her eyes, and finally, with great mercy, released his grip on her neck, tossing her onto the floor.

Thrown onto the floor, Tan Shuya felt as if her bones were about to break. She clutched her throat with both hands, coughing violently, almost hacking her lungs out.

But her face was even paler, and she felt even more despair in her heart, thinking fate was unfair.

Song Qiao had actually woken up... That woman had actually awakened...

Nan Moyan was about to leave, but Xiaoye anxiously followed him, asking, "Boss, what about this woman?"

Nan Moyan stopped in his tracks, looked back at Tan Shuya, whose original appearance was unrecognizable as she lay on the floor, frowned, and then said, "Keep her locked up, and we’ll see how Qiaoqiao wants to deal with her once she’s better."

Saying that, he left the villa without looking back.

When Song Qiao awoke, it was already dusk.

...

Slightly opening her eyes, she was suddenly blinded by the brightness before her, causing her to reflexively close them again.

Her head was swirling, and her throat was parched, making her whole body uncomfortable.

After a while, she opened her eyes again, slowly adjusting to the light before her. The first thing she saw was the white ceiling, and the air was filled with the strong scent of disinfectant.

The ward was extremely quiet, so quiet she could hear her own breathing.

Turning her head towards the window, because it was already dusk, the setting sun outside was shining in, quite beautiful,

Song Qiao closed her eyes and opened them again, her head aching as if something inside was about to explode, causing her to frown.

Thirsty, hungry, dizzy... A series of symptoms made her feel like she was still in a dream.

Just then, the door of the ward was suddenly opened from the outside, and a nurse in uniform walked in, holding a tray with medicine. When she saw Song Qiao sitting up and looking out the window, she was so startled she almost dropped the tray. Luckily, she caught it in time.

Hearing the noise at the door, Song Qiao turned her head slightly in that direction and saw the nurse standing there, the nurse’s alarm also giving her a slight fright.

Frowning, she was about to speak when the nurse, her face showing excitement, walked over to the bed and said to Song Qiao, "Mrs. Lu, you’re awake... Do you feel any discomfort?"

Song Qiao reacted a half-beat slower, and after the nurse tucked her in, she shook her head slightly and hoarsely said, "Could you get me a glass of water?"

She was really thirsty now and wanted a drink.

Her throat felt painfully dry, as if she hadn’t had water for a long time, making her throat hurt when she spoke.

The nurse quickly nodded, "Okay, Mrs. Lu, please wait a moment."

She turned around and picked up the kettle nearby, but it was empty. She hurriedly said to Song Qiao, "Mrs. Lu, the kettle is empty. Please wait here; I’ll call the doctor to check your body and fetch some water."

Song Qiao nodded, naturally having no objections.

The nurse quickly left, and Song Qiao turned her head to look out the window, still feeling dazed and unable to recall anything, her memory a complete mess.

Lu Jingchen received the call about Song Qiao waking up while he was in the middle of an international meeting at the company.

It seemed the rival company thought he’d been absent from work the past few days, assuming no one was managing the company and thus began poaching business partners. Even a recent deal worth over two billion, which was nearing contract signing, was temporarily halted due to the opponent’s interference, prompting the other party to reconsider.

Lu Jingchen was most frustrated with such underhanded tactics. Believing Song Qiao wouldn’t wake up, he returned from the hospital to address the matter at the company before going back to accompany his young wife.

All top executives within CK Group were seated in the conference room, while Lu Jingchen sat at the head, his face so gloomy it was practically raining. He gave a cursory glance at the gathered top executives from different departments and said calmly, "Don’t any of you have a viable solution to propose? Or have your intellects strayed from work?"

The meeting had dragged on for two whole hours, yet none of the proposals presented satisfied Lu Jingchen.

Strictly speaking, none of the plans could retrieve the two billion legally and intact.

Lowering the collaboration price, humbly seeking cooperation... Seeing those two plans nearly made Lu Jingchen hurl the documents at those involved.

The top executives’ faces turned ugly; nobody spoke and they kept their heads down in silence.

This situation had occurred too unexpectedly, catching them off guard and leaving them unprepared, making it impossible to provide a satisfying plan quickly.

Coupled with Lu Jingchen’s high demands, they could only endure his scolding, not daring to say anything more.
