Chapter 145 Death Notice, Zheng Jie: This is a rare opportunity, I'll sign it.

"Are you sure?"

Zheng Jie looked at the secretary, his tone entirely calm.

"I am sure. The death certificate has already been issued."

Hearing this, Zheng Jie chuckled.

"What a wonderful thing."

At this moment, Zheng Jie stretched. He hadn't expected such an unexpected surprise at this time: Zheng Tian was paralyzed, Mrs. Zheng was dead, and Father Zheng was already in Prison. He could truly say that he had achieved a complete victory.

Thinking of this, Zheng Jie's face was filled with satisfaction.

On the other side, the doctor looked at the death certificate on his phone and pondered for a moment...

"Zheng Tian's emotions are currently unstable, and he is unable to sign this. I think we might need to contact Chairman Zheng."

The death certificate requires a signature. Under normal circumstances, it should be the spouse, but Father Zheng was in Prison at this time. If they asked Father Zheng to sign, it would require a very long process, which the Hospital felt was too much trouble.

Zheng Tian wouldn't work either because he was in the ICU with an unstable mental state. Under these circumstances, Zheng Tian was unable to sign. With both of them unable to do it, there was effectively only one choice left, and that person was Zheng Jie.

"Alright then, I'll contact Chairman Zheng's secretary, shall I?"

Although they didn't have Zheng Jie's contact information, it wasn't a big problem because they could contact Zheng Jie's secretary. Of course, what the doctor meant by 'secretary' was actually the secretary's office. Once the people in the secretary's office knew the news, they would tell Zheng Jie's head secretary, and only then would that secretary tell Zheng Jie.

"Alright."

Soon, the secretary received the news.

"Okay, I understand. Tell the Hospital that I will speak with the Chairman. Oh, and give me the doctor's phone number."

"Yes."

Although this person was nominally just a secretary, it is no exaggeration to say that, strictly speaking, he was one of the core members of the entire Zheng Group, as he was responsible for arranging all of Zheng Jie's schedule.

After getting the number, the secretary walked toward the Chairman's office.

"Boss, I just received a call from the Hospital."

"What is it?"

Zheng Jie asked curiously.

"They said no one has signed the death certificate, so they are asking if you have time now."

"They want me to go sign the death certificate?"

"Yes."

Hearing this, Zheng Jie nodded.

"Very well, I will go."

For something like this, even if he really didn't have the time, Zheng Jie would still have to go.

"Give me the doctor's number."

"Here you go, Boss."

The secretary understood Zheng Jie well and knew he would definitely ask for the doctor's contact information at this moment, so the secretary had already prepared it in advance.

After receiving the doctor's number, Zheng Jie dialed it.

"Hello, who is this?"

"Hello, this is Zheng Jie."

When the doctor heard the name Zheng Jie, he instantly perked up.

"Chairman Zheng, it's like this: Mrs. Zheng's death certificate has been issued, but no one else is able to sign it. We had no choice but to bother you. Do you have time now? If you do, we hope you can spare some time to come to the Hospital."

The doctor's tone was very polite when he spoke; he knew that Zheng Jie was a truly important figure who could not be offended. Hearing this, Zheng Jie nodded.

"I understand."

"Alright, I'll be there in a while."

"Very well, Chairman Zheng, thank you for your trouble."

Hanging up the phone, Zheng Jie looked at his secretary.

"Tell Old Li to get the car ready."

"Yes."

Upon hearing the news, the secretary immediately took action.

Soon, the vehicle was ready. A few minutes later, Zheng Jie appeared at the entrance of the headquarters. Sitting in the back seat of the car, Zheng Jie looked at the scenery outside through the window.

"The weather is nice today."

Zheng Jie said this while looking at Old Li, who was sitting in the driver's seat.

"Yes, Boss, the weather is indeed nice. I saw on the news that it will be bright and sunny for the next few days."

"Is that so? But I feel that every day from now on will be bright and sunny."

Hearing this, Old Li chuckled. He wasn't a fool; he naturally understood that the weather the Boss was talking about wasn't the actual weather.

"Old Li."

"Yes, Boss."

"You've worked hard this time. Your team will get triple the bonus this month."

Zheng Jie had this kind of personality: as long as you did a good job, he would definitely give you everything you wanted. It was for this reason that so many people were willing to follow Zheng Jie. This was Zheng Jie's way of managing people: as long as you could successfully do what he asked you to do, then no matter what, whatever you wanted, he would give it to you.

"Thank you, Boss."

"Why so polite?"

"Hehe."

The two of them chuckled.

Soon, under Old Li's escort, Zheng Jie arrived at the entrance of the Hospital. At this time, the Hospital Director was already waiting there. When he saw Zheng Jie get out of the car, the Director hurriedly reached out his hand.

"Chairman Zheng, I am very sorry to have you come all this way at this time."

"It's nothing; after all, I was born by her."

In fact, everyone knew about the conflict between Zheng Jie and the Zheng family, but people who could sit in these positions were not simple people, so under these circumstances, who would say anything more?

The group walked into the Hospital.

"How is Zheng Tian's condition now?"

Zheng Jie asked while walking.

"Zheng Tian's condition is not very good. He is currently suffering from high paraplegia and has severe bipolar disorder. We must use sedatives now."

"Can you arrange for me to meet with him in a while?"

Although it was a request, the Hospital would not refuse.

"Certainly, Chairman Zheng."

Soon, the group arrived at the office. At this time, staff members were already waiting there, and the death certificate had been placed on the table. Zheng Jie picked up the paper and read it in detail.

After Zheng Jie finished reading, he picked up a pen and quickly signed his name on it. Although everyone knew that there was no difference between them and enemies, it didn't matter; this signature was legally recognized. After all, Zheng Jie was Mrs. Zheng's child.

After signing, they could have someone take the body away. Whatever happened next was Zheng Jie's own business—even if he burned it to ashes and threw it directly into the sea, it would be fine.

"Old Li, have someone take the body away. Send it directly to the funeral home and burn it to ashes."

"Understood."

Under normal circumstances, such a former big shot would consider holding a memorial service, but Zheng Jie would never allow it. Therefore, Zheng Jie had them burn it to ashes immediately.

Soon, the body was taken away. Following that, Zheng Jie checked the time.

"Take me to the ICU."

"Very well, but Chairman Zheng, the situation inside the ICU is quite special, so you will need to wear protective gear."

"No problem. On your turf, I'll listen to you."

Zheng Jie naturally would not refuse their request.

Meanwhile, inside the ICU, Zheng Tian was lying on the bed. For some reason, at this moment, Zheng Tian had an ominous premonition. He felt as if something major might happen in a moment.

Time passed just like that. Half an hour later, the ICU door opened. Zheng Jie took a deep breath and walked inside. To be honest, the clothes were really uncomfortable to wear, but there was no helping it; these were their rules.

Actually, to a certain extent, Zheng Jie was a person very willing to follow the rules—provided, of course, that they were reasonable rules. When he saw a person walk in, Zheng Tian frowned tightly.

For some reason, when he saw this person, Zheng Tian had a feeling of wanting to kill the other party.

Sure enough, this was true hatred.

Although Zheng Jie was wearing special gear at this time, making it impossible for the other party to see his true appearance, he still exuded killing intent.

"Who are you?"

Zheng Tian's tone was filled with curiosity.

"Don't you recognize me?"

"Older brother."

The moment he heard that voice, Zheng Tian's face was filled with rage.

This voice—even if he died, he would not forget it, because this person was Zheng Jie. He glared fiercely at the person in front of him, as if his gaze could kill the other party.

"Zheng Jie."

These two words could be said to have been spoken by the other party through gritted teeth.

Hearing this, Zheng Jie nodded.

"That's right, it's me."
