Chapter 321 I, Bai Zixuan, am not dead yet!
In the capital city of the Dragon Kingdom, in the Bai family compound.
The atmosphere today is very strange; there's a suffocating feeling throughout the entire compound.
Inside the hall, all of Bai's relatives were gathered together.
Everyone wore expressions of shock and sadness.
Just a few hours earlier, they had received some terrible news.
The private plane that Bai Zixuan was on exploded over the Pacific Ocean while en route to the United States and then crashed into the sea.
This news was like a bomb, exploding directly in the Bai family.
Bai Zixuan is the only son of the second master of the Bai family, and he is also a very capable person among the younger generation of the Bai family, and is highly valued by the old master.
His original purpose in going to America was to rescue Bai Qianyue.
Before the person even arrived, this kind of thing happened.
This was an unbearable blow to the Bai family.
In the very center of the hall, Bai Qiuzhan, the head of the Bai family, was sitting in the grand master's chair.
Upon hearing this news, he froze completely.
His hands gripped the cane tightly, his fingers trembling.
His eyes were wide open, his mouth agape, and he couldn't utter a single word for a long time.
Bai Qianyue has disappeared, and now even Bai Zixuan is in trouble.
His two most cherished grandchildren are both gone.
This kind of blow is simply too great for a man in his seventies.
Suddenly, Bai Qiuzhan felt a tightness in his chest.
He opened his mouth wide, trying to breathe deeply, but he felt that no air could get into his lungs.
His face turned deathly pale instantly, then he closed his eyes, fell forward, and tumbled off the chair.
"Oh dear! The old man has fainted!"
"Quick! Call a doctor! Call an ambulance!"
The hall immediately descended into chaos.
Bai's relatives all rushed over and hurriedly helped Bai Qiuzhan up.
Right there in this chaotic crowd.
Bai Hui was standing to the side.
His face also showed a very anxious and sad expression.
He shouted loudly for people to call an ambulance immediately, and even pretended to go over and help the old man.
However, if only someone could see what was in his heart at this moment.
You'll definitely find that he's already secretly overjoyed.
Bai Hui laughed loudly in his heart:
"Haha! That's great! Things went so smoothly!"
"That arrogant brat Bai Zixuan is finally dead! His plane exploded over the Pacific Ocean, leaving not a trace!"
"With him dead, that wretched girl Bai Qianyue will never come back! She'll be trapped in America forever!"
Bai Hui looked at Bai Qiuzhan, who had fainted on the ground, and continued to think smugly to himself:
"You old fool, you've finally met your match! Didn't you always look down on me? Didn't you say I wasn't even as good as a nephew?"
"Now the two people you value most are both gone! It would be best if you fainted from anger! If you just die of anger like this, then the position of head of the Bai family will naturally fall into my hands, Bai Hui!"
"I am the eldest son of the Bai family. Once you are dead, this family will be mine! Let's see who dares to look down on me then!"
Although Bai Hui thought this in his heart, he controlled his facial expression very well.
He even squeezed out a few tears and shouted loudly:
"Dad! What's wrong? Wake up!"
Soon, the ambulance arrived at the Bai family compound.
Doctors and nurses carried Bai Qiuzhan onto the ambulance on a stretcher.
As the eldest son, Bai Hui took the initiative to get into the ambulance and accompany his father to the hospital.
Other Bai family relatives also drove up in their cars, following the ambulance in a grand procession.
We arrived at the best hospital in Beijing.
Bai Qiuzhan was immediately rushed into the emergency room for treatment.
All of Bai's relatives were waiting in the corridor outside the emergency room.
Everyone's face was filled with worry.
People sat on chairs in the corridor or leaned against the wall, discussing in hushed tones what had happened in the past few days.
"Oh dear, what a disaster! What's wrong with our Bai family lately? One misfortune after another has befallen us."
"First, Qian Yue went missing, and now Zi Xuan has been in a plane crash. How can the old man bear such a blow at his age?"
"If the old man really doesn't make it this time, what will happen to the Bai family?"
As they talked, everyone secretly glanced at Bai Hui, who was standing at the entrance of the emergency room.
At this moment, Bai Hui was pacing back and forth at the door with his hands behind his back, pretending to be very anxious.
Several older relatives of the Bai family gathered together and began to discuss in hushed tones.
One of the relatives whispered:
"What do you think? If something really happens to the old man this time, shouldn't Bai Hui become the next head of the Bai family?"
Another relative nodded and replied:
"Logically speaking, it should definitely be given to him. After all, he is the eldest son of the eldest son's family, and this is the rightful thing to do."
"The old man used to want to pass the position to Qian Yue, or he had his eye on Zi Xuan. But now that they're both gone, besides Bai Hui, who else can take over the position?"
I heard these discussions.
Bai Hui's ears twitched.
Although he didn't turn his head to look at his relatives, he heard everything clearly in his mind.
He was very satisfied.
This is the result he wanted.
Once everyone shares this consensus, it's a certainty that he will take over the Bai family after the old man dies.
While everyone was still discussing it in hushed tones...
The emergency room door opened.
A doctor in a white coat came out.
The Bai family's relatives immediately surrounded them.
Bai Hui walked at the front, and he grabbed the doctor's arm anxiously, asking loudly:
"Doctor! How is my dad? Has he woken up yet?"
The doctor took off his mask, looked at Bai Hui, and sighed.
He shook his head and said in a very heavy tone:
"Mr. Bai, the old man's condition is very serious."
"He suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage due to extreme stress. Although we have done our best to save him, but..."
The doctor paused for a moment, then continued:
"But the old man is still in critical condition. He is currently in a deep coma. Even if he wakes up in the future, he will probably suffer from very serious aftereffects and it will be difficult for him to live and work normally like before."
Hearing what the doctor said.
The Bai family's relatives all gasped in shock.
Several women even covered their mouths and started crying.
Deep coma? Severe aftereffects?
This means that even if Bai Qiuzhan survives, he will have completely lost the ability to manage the Bai family.
Upon hearing this news, Bai Hui almost burst out laughing inside.
It's like God is helping him!
The old man has become a cripple, so he is now the de facto supreme ruler of the Bai family!
However, Bai Hui still pretended to be extremely grief-stricken.
He gripped the doctor's arm tightly and shouted:
"Doctor! Please! No matter the cost, no matter what the best medicine is, you must save my dad!"
"Our Bai family can't do without him!"
The doctor patted Bai Hui's hand and comforted him:
"Mr. Bai, please rest assured, we will do our best. The old man has now been transferred to the intensive care unit. You family members can visit him from outside, but you cannot go in and disturb him."
Bai Hui nodded vigorously.
He turned around and looked at the Bai family relatives behind him.
The sadness on his face instantly subsided, replaced by a very calm and responsible expression.
He spoke loudly to everyone:
"Dear uncles and brothers!"
"Our Bai family is facing such a huge crisis. Qian Yue and Zi Xuan are in trouble, and now my father has also collapsed."
"However, our Bai family absolutely cannot be thrown into chaos!"
"At this critical moment, as the eldest son of the Bai family, I must step forward and shoulder the responsibilities I should bear!"
Bai Hui looked at everyone, his tone very firm:
"From today onwards, until the old man wakes up, I will be responsible for handling all matters, big and small, concerning the Bai family!"
"I will definitely lead everyone through this difficult time!"
Hearing Bai Hui's words...
The Bai family relatives looked at each other.
In such a leaderless situation, someone definitely needs to step forward and take charge.
Moreover, there's nothing wrong with what Bai Hui just said; after all, he's the eldest son.
So everyone nodded in agreement.
"Alright! In that case, we'll follow the young master's arrangements."
"Yes! Young Master, the family is counting on you now."
Bai Hui felt very pleased with everyone's reactions.
He knew that he had finally waited for this day.
He finally seized control of the Bai family's power.
He turned his head and glanced at the door of the intensive care unit.
He sneered inwardly:
"Old man, you just lie there comfortably. This house belongs to Bai Hui from now on!"
……
Just as Bai Hui was gloating in the hospital, thinking he had completely taken control of the situation.
He had no idea.
Bai Zixuan, whom he thought had been blown up over the Pacific Ocean.
Right now, I'm sitting in the car on my way to the airport.
Bai Zixuan's expression was very solemn.
He was holding his phone, looking at the latest news coming from China.
He already knew that his grandfather, Bai Qiuzhan, had been hospitalized with a cerebral hemorrhage due to anger.
He also knew that Bai Hui had now seized the opportunity to take control of the Bai family.
Bai Zixuan clenched his fist.
He gritted his teeth and silently swore in his heart:
"Uncle, don't be too happy yet."
"I, Bai Zixuan, am not dead yet."
"When I return to the Dragon Kingdom, I will expose all the heinous things you've done in front of everyone!"
"I will absolutely not allow someone like you to ruin the Bai family!"
