Chapter 235: Shi Dongchu's Last Resurgence
"Sunshine Policy Explained"

"How experts view the North-South talks from an economic perspective"

"The search for relatives in the north and south is going smoothly!"

"Golden Gate Group's market value has soared more than tenfold since its listing!"

Li You was indeed the undisputed chairman of Kinmen Group, but at this moment, Li You received a call from Zheng Zaizhong.

Got a message.

"President Nim," Zheng Zaizhong's voice was a little awkward, "Shi Dongchu is awake."

Li You strode into the hospital. Zheng Zhongzhong stood at the door of the ward with a serious expression, "President Nim."

"What did he ask for?"

"I just asked for the newspaper," Zheng Zhong lowered his head, "I gave him the newspaper as you requested."

When Li You entered the VIP private ward, Shi Dongchu, who was in his fifties, was leaning against the head of the bed, his eyes fixed on the newspaper beside the bed, carefully reading the information on it.

These newspapers filled the entire bedside table, recording Shi Dongchu's attention to the outside world after he woke up.

Although he was in the ward, he looked surprisingly good. His rosy cheeks and clear eyes even revealed that he was not troubled by the disease. Only his silver hair was different from before the accident.

Shi Dongchu's hospital gown was neat and meticulous, as if he was ready to welcome visitors at any time.

The window beside the bed was slightly open, letting in rays of warm sunlight, adding a bit of vitality to the ward. Occasionally, the sirens of medical emergency vehicles could be heard outside the window, as well as the whispers of patients' families in the ward in the distance.

Shi Dongchu's fingers gently brushed over today's front-page news, and he looked up at Li You with deep eyes, "Here it comes."

"coming."

Shi Dongchu smiled and said, "You did a great job."

He looked at the news in the newspaper, then at the upright Li You, "At least he is doing better than me, and he has the energy of a young man."

"President Shi, thank you for your praise."

"I'm not flattering you," Shi Dongchu said calmly, tapping the newspaper with his fingers, making a slight sound. "If it was you who got into trouble, I would also take charge, but I definitely wouldn't do it to this extent. It's important for people to know themselves."

"Do you know what my first thought was when I woke up?"

Shi Dongchu answered his own question, "I am very glad that it is you who is in charge of the Golden Gate Group."

Although the words were indifferent, they carried a subtle hint of approval and expectation.

He watched Li You sit on the sofa in the ward and smiled slightly, "Can I ask President Li a question?"

Shi Dongchu's voice was not loud, but it echoed in the quiet ward. Compared with his previous words, it carried a subtle seriousness.

Li You raised his eyebrows when he heard his address, "President Shi, please speak."

"Do you feel that your steps are too big?" Shi Dongchu expressed his concerns, "If your steps are too big, you will be unstable."

Li You's expression didn't change much, except that his slightly raised eyebrows gradually relaxed, as if he was thinking about Shi Dongchu's question.

"If you take small steps, you will always be a lamb," Li You pondered for a moment, shook his head and denied Shi Dongchu's statement, "We are developing, they are also developing, and their development so far is just bigger than ours."

"If we keep taking small steps, we will never have a chance to catch up with them in this lifetime."

Shi Dongchu understood who Li You was talking about. He sighed and said, "It seems that I am really old."

When it comes to the overall situation, Shi Dongchu knows that he is no match for Li You.

Li You did not hide it from other people in Kinmen. Several of Shi Dongchu's trusted aides also rushed over and gathered in the ward.

The atmosphere in the entire ward was solemn, and many people were sighing silently.

Even if a normal patient recovered, his complexion would not be this good. Shi Dongchu's condition was clearly a last gasp of life. He was dying.

The "beeping" sound from the instruments in the ward is particularly conspicuous in the quiet environment.

"Director Cui," Shi Dongchu spoke again.

Director Cui was the first person to turn to Li You. He hurriedly lowered his head and replied, "Yes."

"Don't be so nervous, you're doing fine," looking at his nervous look, Shi Dongchu couldn't help laughing, with a bit of relief in his smile. He waved his hand gently to ease the tense atmosphere a little.

"I just want you to take better care of my wife in the future. Is that okay?" Shi Dongchu's voice was gentle but powerful.

"." Director Cui was silent for a moment. Shi Dongchu's wife had always been very kind to them. He nodded slightly and whispered, "This is what we should do."

Shi Dongchu shook his head and thought to himself: If it weren't for greed, perhaps what happened that day would not have happened.

Shi Dongchu glanced at Li You silently and sighed in his heart, "Besides, there is nothing that should be done in the world."

Shi Dongchu was indeed greedy because he wanted to leave offspring, even though the chance was slim.

Although I don’t know how the news got out, it doesn’t matter now.

He knew that it was not Li You who did it, otherwise he would not be alive today.

Shi Dongchu waved his hands silently, "Remember to apologize to Zhongjiu for me. I had a bad attitude at that time and had a quarrel with him. Now that I think about it, maybe I was too harsh on him."

Li You still gave Shi Dongchu time to deliver the will, and did not ask Director Cui about the content of the will.

On the morning of July 22, former Tiger Faction leader and former Kinmen Group chairman Seok Dong-chul died suddenly in a Seoul hospital.

The sunlight shines through the glass windows of the hospital and falls on Shi Dongchu's peaceful face.

According to Xiancheng Daily, Shi Dongchu, who had been in a coma for several months, suddenly regained consciousness a few hours before his death and woke up from his coma.

After reading many newspapers, he laughed before his death, feeling that his life was not in vain.

Shi Dongchu's death was held with the highest solemnity.

Thousands of people from the Kinmen Group were in mourning. Since he had no children, Li Zhongjiu, whom he regarded as his younger brother, was in prison, and Li You, the successor of the Kinmen Group, buried him on his behalf.

In front of the mourning hall, Director Cui bowed deeply to Li You, who was wearing mourning clothes, and said, "You let Chairman Shi see the future of Kinmen with his own eyes. He died very satisfied."

Li You returned the greeting, “The future of Kinmen will always bear Chairman Shi’s name.”

"That's good." Director Cui turned around and took one last look at the portrait. "President Shi thinks that sooner or later you will be able to realize your dream."

Li You turned around and looked at the guests who came to pay their respects, including some congressmen that Shi Dongchu had met, such as Li Lianchang, as well as some of Shi Dongchu's own connections.

There is no need to say much about all kinds of entrepreneurs. In addition, many bigwigs from other local underworld organizations also came here to pay tribute to their peer Shi Dongchu.

"Sure." He replied to Director Cui calmly.

Li Lianchang and Li You stood together, and the people around them left on their own accord.

He stared at Li You quietly and said with emotion, "From now on, the sky is high and the birds can fly freely."

Li You bowed his head slightly. "Mr. Li, you are too kind. The bonus period of the Kinmen Group has passed, and it will soon face suppression."

Li Lianchang naturally understood the implication. He glanced at Li You and said, "The suppression is only temporary. If you stand on the wrong side, even Chen Yangzhe would have to succumb."

Li You just stood there indifferently, without any other expression.

Li Lianchang shook his head, turned and left.
