Chapter 337 Wan Yichen's Predicament
Song Qianyi met his gaze frankly, her eyes full of sincerity, without flinching, letting him scrutinize her.
After a long silence, Wan Yichen finally spoke.
"Miss Song, we've only just met, why are you helping me like this? Although Yitian Group has a good reputation in the industry, I've also heard that the business world is like a battlefield, and no one gets up early without a profit. What are you after?"
Song Qianyi smiled gently, her red lips parting slightly.
“Young Master Wan is insightful, so I won’t beat around the bush. To be honest, I have some business dealings with the Wan family and want to find out the truth, but I have no intention of making an enemy of you.”
"Seeing your predicament today, I sincerely want to lend a hand. If it can also help me out of my own urgent problem, that would be even better. It would be a win-win situation, so why wouldn't you be happy to do it?"
Wan Yichen frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said.
"Although I've just returned to the Wan family, I know that some conflicts are beyond my control. And then there's my mother's illness..."
Wan Yichen didn't continue. His mother was terminally ill. Although Yitian Group was very powerful, he didn't believe that Yitian Group's medical conditions were better than Wan's.
Song Qianyi keenly sensed the concerns behind Wan Yichen's unfinished words.
According to the investigation, Wan Yichen's mother's illness is not simple.
She gently patted Wan Yichen's shoulder and said in a tender tone.
“Young Master Wan, I know you are worried about your mother’s illness. This is filial piety, and I admire it very much.”
"To be honest, have you ever heard of Yixin Hospital? It is one of the hospitals under my management."
Wan Yichen nodded slightly, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, not understanding why she suddenly mentioned this hospital.
Seeing this, Song Qianyi's smile deepened, and she continued.
"Yixin Hospital boasts top-notch scientific research capabilities in the industry. In the next few days, we will hold a press conference to launch a new drug."
"This medicine may have remarkable effects on many intractable diseases, including the one your mother suffers from. I know you have doubts, so why don't you wait until after this press conference to learn more about it yourself before making a decision? I believe you won't be disappointed."
Wan Yichen frowned, silently weighing the options in his mind.
On the one hand, he desperately needed external help for his mother, but the Wan family was now in turmoil, and those so-called relatives probably wouldn't do their best.
On the other hand, he and Song Qianyi had only met for the first time, and although her promises sounded good, it was hard to guarantee that there was no ulterior motive behind them.
After thinking for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth and replied.
"Alright, Miss Song, I'll trust you this time and wait a couple of days to see. But let me make this clear from the start: if it's not as miraculous as you say, then our cooperation is off."
Song Qianyi nodded happily.
"That's only right. I greatly admire Young Master Wan's prudent approach. I hope you will take good care of yourself at the Wan family residence these next few days. If you encounter any difficulties, please feel free to contact me."
After saying that, he handed over a carefully prepared business card with his personal emergency contact information.
Wan Yichen took the business card, put it in his pocket, and turned to leave.
Upon returning to the Wan family home, Wan Yichen felt as if he had stepped into an ice cellar.
The power struggles within the family intensified. Madam Wan suffered from health problems after giving birth to her first child, and her only direct descendant had one daughter, Wan Mingzhu.
For many years, everyone has tacitly agreed that she will be the next head of the family.
The sudden appearance of Wan Yichen, this illegitimate son, was undoubtedly like a bombshell, disrupting the seemingly calm surface of the lake.
Those offspring of the collateral branches who originally surrounded Wan Mingzhu, hoping to get a share of the pie in the future, now see Wan Yichen as a thorn in their side and make things more difficult for him every day.
