As if on cue, Sun Lixia's phone rang and the voice of her distraught brother, Sun Weilong sounded on the other end, "Sister, you have to rush to the hospital, dad had a stroke."
Sun Lixia felt her blood run cold. "What?" she gasped, clutching the phone tighter.
"I don't know what happened but his butler told me he collapsed and the doctors say it's a stroke," Sun Weilong's voice was strained with worry. "I am on my way there too."
"Okay, okay, I will be there," Sun Lixia managed to reply, her mind reeling.
The call ended and a stunned silence fell over the room. Li Xiaojun was at her side in an instant. "What's wrong, honey?"
Sun Lixia turned to him, her face ashen. "My father, he had a stroke. I have to rush to the hospital."
Li Xiaojun's eyes widened with concern. "Let's go, I'm coming with you," he said resolutely.
