ONE-DOG NIGHT

Taehyung had already investigated the Zhu family's situation. He said coldly, "The Zhu family's company has been found to be suspected of smuggling. All import and export channels have been blocked, and the company's accounts can't be turned over. They've been trying to get us to help them."

Old Master Kim sneered. "Help them? It's already good enough that I don't kill them with a single slash!" He wished he could tear the Zhu family into pieces now!

Taehyung said, "Don't worry, the Zhu family will be finished soon."

After finalizing the Zhu family's outcome with a few words, Old Master Kim pursed his lips. After a moment of silence, he finally asked, "What about Eun-Mi? How did Eun-Mi..."

Taehyung remained silent. The capital was 2,000 kilometers away from Seoul. Four years ago, Eun-Mi came to Seoul City from the capital and was brought home by Zhu Si-hoo. Then she got pregnant and had a child. Eun-Mi's health wasn't good to begin with, so she almost didn't survive when she gave birth.

Perhaps it was because she was attached to the child that Eun-Mi held on for another two years. After she died of illness, Jungkook was left alone. Their precious sister died in a foreign city just like that. She didn't even have an official status before she died.

Taehyung clenched his fists tightly. The angrier he was, the colder his expression became. When Old Master Kim saw this, he suddenly did not dare to ask anymore. He was afraid that he would not be able to take it.

Jae also changed the topic. "Then why did the Zhu family hit Kookie?"

Taehyung said coldly, "Because Si-Hoo's current wife, Areum, fell down the stairs and caused a miscarriage. They think that Kookie pushed Areum down the stairs."

The Kim family frowned subtly. Just as they were talking, someone reported that the Zhu family had arrived. Taehyung's assistant walked to Taehyung's side and said in a low voice, "President Kim, the Zhu family said that they want to come see Mr. Jungkook..."

Taehyung smiled coldly. "Here to see Kookie? Get someone to turn off all the heaters on this floor. Open all the windows and ask the Zhu family to wait."

Si-Hoo, Old Master Zhu, and Zhu Do-Hee waited in the corridor outside for a long time. The VIP ward on the top floor was locked, and they could not enter with their status. Taehyung's assistant only said to wait and then disappeared.

Zhu Do-Hee's hands and feet were cold from the cold. She rubbed her hands and complained, "What right does the Kim family have to prevent us from entering? No matter what, Jungkook is still my grandson. How can a biological grandfather and grandmother be stopped outside the door when they want to see their granddaughter?"

Si-Hoo was also annoyed. "Let's wait for a while." He knew that the Kim family was mad; after all, he had accidentally hit Jungkook. Although he didn't do it on purpose, it was normal for the Kim family to be angry. If they wanted the Kim family's help, they had to at least let the Kim family vent their anger.

But as they waited, the Zhu family quickly felt that something was wrong. Why was it getting colder and colder? The place they were at was by the window. The wind was blowing, and they were shivering from the cold.

"What kind of place is this? Is there no heating in the hospital?" The pampered Zhu Do-Hee finally could not take it anymore. Old Master Zhu also frowned and said, "Si-Hoo, go find someone to ask what's going on."

Even if the Kim family was angry, they could just wait for a while. It had already been half an hour and they still hadn't come out. Si-Hoo got someone to ask around, but those people said that they didn't know what was going on. The Zhu family could only continue to tremble in the cold corridor. The Kim family refused to see them. He didn't know how long they would have to wait.

In the end, it was Zhu Do-Hee who could not take it anymore. "Wait here. I'll go and see Areum." Areum was also recuperating in this hospital, but she was not in this building. She was in the gynecology department next door.

Old Master Zhu and Si-Hoo were also cold, but they did not dare to leave. They could only endure it. They complained endlessly in their hearts, but they did not know that this was only the beginning.

...

The sound of beeping machines passed into Jungkook's ears, and he could vaguely hear the sound of speaking. Amidst all the voices, one was very clear: "Kookie, Kookie, Kookie, Kookie, wake up. If you don't wake up, I'll..."

That voice kept ringing, and Jungkook felt that a swarm of bees was buzzing in her ears. It was so noisy, whose voice was this, so annoying...

Jungkook's eyelashes trembled and he finally opened her eyes. What came into view was a white wall and a circle of strangers standing around him. Jungkook carefully pursed his lips.
