Yi Anguo was also taken aback.

After being apart from Guo Aihua for so many years, and finally seeing each other again, could they really be separated by life and death?

"Did you make a mistake?"

Guo Sian was extremely agitated and kicked over a table nearby.

"My mother gets a physical checkup every year, how could she have cancer? It must be that your lousy hospital's technology is not up to standard. I'm going to arrange for my mother to be transferred immediately."

The director quickly reassured them, "Please, both of you, calm down and hear me out first."

He looked at the report in his hand, "According to the current preliminary diagnosis, the lady's cancer is actually in the early stages and as long as intervention is made and she gets enough rest, her health won't be at serious risk."

"We'll start with conservative treatment initially, and if it doesn't work, we'll proceed with other treatment methods later. How does this sound?"

Yi Anguo quickly calmed down.

Since the doctor says it's treatable, they should begin treatment quickly.

After leaving the office, Yi Anguo and Guo Sian silently went to Guo Aihua's ward.

When they entered the ward, they saw Guo Aihua peeling an apple for herself.

"How could you handle this yourself?"

Yi Anguo quickly stepped forward, "Honestly, you should have told me about this. How can you deal with such things on your own?"

Guo Aihua smiled, "You weren't so considerate in the past. Why the sudden change? Could it be that I have a serious illness?"

What started as a joke left Yi Anguo and Guo Sian silent after hearing it.

At this moment, Guo Aihua couldn't smile anymore.

She coughed and said, "Just tell me, what illness do I have?"

She turned her head to look at Yi Anguo.

"You know me; I hate being deceived the most. Even a well-intentioned lie is still a lie to me, so I just want to know what illness I really have."

Yi Anguo forced a smile that looked worse than crying.

"It's somewhat troublesome, but the doctors said it can be treated. Tomorrow, I'll have someone contact the best doctor."

Guo Aihua pressed forward relentlessly.

Under her relentless pressure, Yi Anguo could only take out the diagnosis report.

"This illness is quite controllable, but you mustn't overexert yourself anymore."

Guo Aihua paused for a moment, her eyes somewhat forlorn.

She always understood the importance of health, so she regularly took supplements.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as hoped...

Just then, Guo Aihua's phone suddenly rang.

She opened her phone and it was her assistant calling.

As soon as she answered, the assistant's voice came through.

"President Guo, when will you be back? While you've been away, several people from the company's board are on the verge of a falling out, especially President Yang."

The assistant referred to Yang Guanqiao, the vice president of Fuhua Group.

This person has been the vice president at Fuhua Group for decades, never married, and had no children, dedicating almost all her energy to the company.

Some years ago, Yang Guanqiao facilitated a large-scale project, giving Fuhua Group a chance to transform.

It's safe to say that Fuhua Group's current success largely owes to her contributions.

Originally, Yang Guanqiao and Guo Aihua were good friends.

But ever since her achievements, Yang Guanqiao's attitude toward Guo Aihua became increasingly unfriendly.

She believed she was a meritorious service, deserving better treatment.

Unfortunately, Guo Aihua's attitude didn't meet her expectations, filling her with unspoken resentment.

In recent years, Yang Guanqiao has been maneuvering behind the scenes, causing Fuhua Group to split into two factions—one supporting Yang Guanqiao, and the other supporting Guo Aihua.

Taking advantage of Guo Aihua's visit home, Yang Guanqiao ambitiously wanted to reform the company's administrative department, dismissing several of Guo Aihua's key associates in various ways.

Guo Aihua had known about this for days but, tempted by her relationship with Yi Anguo, hadn't prepared to return to Singapore.

Yet, this evening, during a meeting, Yang Guanqiao wanted to forcibly dismiss her confidants again.

On the other end of the call, the assistant cried, "President Guo, you must hurry back. President Yang has been acting like a madwoman, frantically laying off staff, even wanting to fire me..."

"If you don't return soon, all the plans you've set up could be completely ruined."

Hearing this, Guo Aihua's face instantly turned grim.

"I understand!"

She nodded, "I'll take the earliest flight back to Singapore tomorrow morning, you hold on for now."

The assistant excitedly hung up the phone.

After hanging up, Yi Anguo and Guo Aihua exchanged looks.

"Um..."

After hesitating for a long time, Yi Anguo sighed deeply and said, "The doctor already advised you to undergo conservative treatment promptly. Maybe you shouldn't concern yourself with this matter. The conflicts within the company tend to have patterns, we can think of other ways."

Guo Sian was also very anxious.

His mother's illness left him worried sick, and he only wished for her to receive treatment as soon as possible.

"It's too late." Guo Aihua shook her head.

"Since the doctor recommends conservative treatment, it means this illness won't affect my life safety right now. I'll handle Yang Guanqiao's situation first, and we can discuss the rest later."

Saying this, she prepared to pack her things at home, but she felt dizzy as soon as she stepped off the bed.

Yi Anguo hurriedly supported her.

"Business isn't worth your life. Your illness is not minor, it needs immediate attention."

"How about this..."

Knowing that Guo Aihua wouldn't let go of Fuhua Group, Yi Anguo suddenly shifted his gaze to Guo Sian.

"We'll publicly claim that you're recuperating, and let Si An take over your duties at the group. Anyway, he'll inherit this mess in the future, might as well use this opportunity to properly train him."

Suddenly being entrusted with such a responsibility, Guo Sian found it hard to believe.

But when he saw Yi Anguo's gaze, he eventually nodded solemnly.

"Mom, you can rest assured in the hospital, I'll handle everything at the company."

Guo Aihua, anxious at heart, said, "Yang Guanqiao's influence in the company isn't small, and they excel at internal conflicts. You're inexperienced, how could you compete with them? Let me go back just this once."

It's not that she didn't trust her son but she understood her competitor too well.

Yang Guanqiao was like a persistent annoyance, making people uncomfortable wherever she went.

Guo Aihua had endured so much that she only said any harsh words when she couldn't bear it anymore.

At this moment, she looked at Yi Anguo, "I should be able to complete the task within three days, receiving treatment three days later is the same."

Yi Anguo couldn't bear it.

"If you truly believe this kid can't handle so many employees alone, then I'll accompany him to Singapore as well. Anyway, there's nothing pressing at the group now, I should also do my part for my wife."

At the mention of "wife," Guo Aihua was suddenly moved.

Throughout her life, no one ever stood up for her like Yi Anguo.

At this moment, she couldn't control herself and burst into tears.

Beside her, Guo Sian also hugged his mother and wept loudly.

That night, Guo Aihua introduced the group's situation to Yi Anguo and handed over a list of loyal associates at the group to him.

"These people on the list are trustworthy, they've been with me for decades, there'll be no mistakes."

Seeing how uneasy Guo Aihua was, Yi Anguo instead smiled.

"One may know a person's face but not their heart. Don't worry, I'll help you."

That night, he called Hu Jing specifically.

"Ai Hua is ill and unable to handle matters at Fuhua Group. I plan to accompany Sian to Singapore in the coming days. I'll eradicate all the internal dissenters within Fuhua Group!"

He knew Hu Jing was the most reliable and would never betray him or cause him harm.

"I hope you can take care of Ai Hua for me these few days. I'll be sure to thank you properly once I return from Singapore."
