Chapter Ninety-Two: Suddenly Like a Dream

"It's nothing, Dad's company's matter is settled, and a new acting chairman will be appointed tomorrow."

Mu Nanyi explained softly to Su Ke, without looking back at Su Anna.

Su Ke nodded, the company's affairs are now handled by Mu Nanyi, so he is naturally relieved.

It's just that when I heard Fang Cai's conversation, I didn't feel happy all the time.

Su Ke sat in front of Su Yuhua's spirit and almost didn't sleep all night.

However, Su Anna also didn't sleep all night, and the two of them thought about their own thoughts.

Early the next morning, Su Ke stood in front of everyone with huge dark circles under his eyes.

Mu Nanyi stepped forward with concern and asked, "Coco, you haven't slept all night?" Dad will be buried in a while, so you can go and rest for a while. ”

"No, I won't be able to see my dad for a while, I want to accompany him again."

Su Ke looked at Su Yuhua who was smiling in the photo, and blamed himself a little, when Su Yuhua was alive, he didn't maintain the relationship between the two people's parents.

I don't know if Su Yuhua will blame her, now I have to accompany her more.

Mu Nanyi understood Su Ke's thoughts, and now she was looking at her sideways.

After a while, outsiders picked up Su Yuhua's coffin and went to the cemetery.

Everyone was dressed in black and stood in front of Su Yuhua's tomb to say their final goodbyes.

Yang Wenjuan has long stopped crying, not because she doesn't want to cry, but because her tears have dried up, and there are no extra tears to shed.

"Auntie."

A familiar voice came from behind him, and when everyone looked back, it turned out to be Tan Yicheng.

"Yicheng, why are you here?" Yang Wenjuan looked at the person in a black suit standing there and asked.

"I should have come, in the past, thanks to my uncle's care, I had a journey, if I didn't come, I was really sorry for my uncle."

Tan Yicheng said, walked to Su Yuhua's tomb, put down the flower in his hand, and bowed respectfully.

"Uncle, thank you for your nurturing grace back then, I hope you are all well when you get there......"

The words fell, and there was a trace of choking in his voice.

At the same time, it also made the people present feel the atmosphere of sadness.

"If only you could come." Yang Wenjuan said.

Tan Yicheng supported Yang Wenjuan, stayed for a while, and everyone came out of the cemetery.

Tan Yicheng noticed it. Among the people of the Su family, there is an extra woman.

"Auntie, what is this?" Tan Yicheng pointed at Su Anna and asked.

"This is Anna, who is also Yuhua's child, who has been in the United States before, and rushed back because of Yuhua's affairs."

Yang Wenjuan's words made a trace of surprise flash in Tan Yicheng's eyes, and he glanced Su Anna up and down.

"Hello, I've heard my dad mention you a long time ago, but I didn't expect to meet today."

Su Anna took the initiative to stretch out her hand, and Tan Yicheng held it.

"Hello."

Tan Yicheng withdrew his hand and glanced at Su Ke next to him, his face was not very good.

"Coco, are you not feeling well?"

Su Kezheng lowered his head. There was only the faint voice of Tan Yicheng and Su Anna in his ears.

Hearing him ask, he raised his head and forced a smile and said, "I...... I'm fine, maybe I didn't rest, okay, go back to sleep...... One ......"

Before he finished speaking, Su Ke only felt dizzy for a while, and his body was about to fall as soon as he weakened.

Mu Nanyi, who was beside her, quickly helped her.

"Coco!" Tan Yicheng was also nervous, and reached out to take a hand, but at the same time as he stretched out his hand, Mu Nanyi had already picked up Su Ke and walked towards the car.

Tan Yicheng felt a little embarrassed.

"Mom, I'll take Su Ke to the hospital first." Mu Nanyi looked at Yang Wenjuan, who was worried, and said.

Yang Wenjuan nodded, worried, but there were still many things waiting for her to deal with in the Su family.

Mu Nanyi left with Su Ke.

Su Anna, who didn't speak, saw everything in her eyes and pursed her lips and smiled.

"Lin Lin, I'll go to Dad's company in a while. You come with me, Zijun, what about you? ”

Su Anna stretched out her hand and grabbed Su Anlin's hand and said, then glanced at Su Zijun, who had a bad face, and said.

"I won't go, my own company still has something to do, so I'll go first."

Su Zijun has not rested well because of Tong Jiajia's affairs and Su Yuhua's unexpected departure.

I don't want to deal with anything at this time.

"Aunt Juan, I'm tired of you about the affairs at home, I'll go first." Su Zijun said hello and left.

"Aunt Juan, Lin Lin and I also left first."

Su Anna didn't give Su Anlin any chance to speak, and pulled her into the car hard.

"Suanna, why are you taking me away, I don't want to go to the company!"

In the car, Su Anlin shook off her hand vigorously and said.

"Su Anlin, I need to remind you that I am your sister, is this your attitude towards me?"

Suanna changed her normal behavior and said to her seriously and indifferently.

Su Anlin was stunned, looking at the person in front of him who claimed to be his sister, and Fang Cai was completely different from Fang Cai in front of outsiders.

"Sister? If you realized that you had an extra sister overnight, would you accept it? ”

"I will, I will accept anything." It's like accepting that Mu Nanyi is married, but being unwilling is another matter.

"But I'm not as receptive as you think, I don't have a common language with you, you let me get off!"

Su Anlin couldn't stand her condescending attitude when she spoke, and patted the car door and said.

"Su Anlin, I'll only say it once. I'm not worried about you for the sake of you being my sister, but I also want to make it clear to you that if you want to get what you want, you have to work together! ”

Su Anna looked at Su Anlin's eyes and said word by word.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I've heard about the festival between you and Su Ke for a long time, but every time she takes the limelight, doesn't she?"

"This has nothing to do with you."

Su Anlin, who was poked in the sore spot, spoke in a displeased tone.

"It's not a shameful thing, she's just playing some tricks, I also know that you used to have a heart for Tan Yicheng......"

When Su Anlin heard this, he couldn't help but look at her with a vigilant gaze.

The Su Anna in front of her seemed to have suddenly changed into a person, and everything she said and did was the same as Fang Cai.

"What else do you know?" Su Anlin couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Su Anna's face was relaxed, and she said with a smile: "Naturally, I know everything I want to know, if I don't find out, how can I come back?" Lin Lin, don't you know that knowing each other and knowing your confidant will not be defeated in a hundred battles? ”

"So, what do you want to do now?"

"Don't be nervous, we are sisters, I won't hurt you, I just want to get closer to the relationship between our brothers and sisters, after all, we haven't gotten along well for so many years."

Su Anlin vaguely felt that it was not just that simple.

"Where are we going now?"

"Go to the company, Dad's company should still have left shares that belong to us, don't you want to know, how much do you own?"

"I'm not interested in this, and I don't know anything about the company."

Su Anlin herself is not interested in these, not to mention that she has opinions about Su Yuhua, and she is even more uninterested.

"So, you're stupid, you don't care, it doesn't mean that others don't care, you have to know how to strike first, Lin Lin, you still have a lot to learn."

Suana said, reaching out and rubbing her head.

His eyes were looking ahead, and he was thinking about things.

Soon, Su Anna drove to the company, and when she was on the road, she had already called the company's board of directors and called a meeting of personnel.

When I arrived at the door of the conference room upstairs, the secretary saw Su Anna and said respectfully, "Miss Anna, all the members of the board of directors have arrived. ”

"Okay, let's not let anyone bother us next."

After speaking, he took Su Anlin into the office.

Su Anlin was in surprise from the moment he entered the company to the door of the conference room.

She had also been to the company a few times, but she had never been so familiar, but Su Anna's familiarity was not at all like the first time.

In the end, how many things did she check?

"Everyone, you're all here." Suanna unceremoniously sat on the rostrum in front of her and glanced at everyone.

"I wonder what Miss Anna called us here today?"

One of the men, who seemed to be about forty years old, sat in the front seat.

"My father died. As you know, I'm here today for the company's shares. ”

Su Anna said without concealment.

It's just that her words surprised everyone present for a moment.

"Miss Anna's words are so straightforward, but I heard that tomorrow is the real day to announce the shares, not to mention, whoever holds more shares will naturally have the most right to speak."

"That's true, and that's why I've summoned you here today."

Su Anna paused, glanced at everyone and said, "I know that you have support votes in your hands and a small share of shares, and I only have one request, that is, you must support me tomorrow." ”

"I wonder what Miss Anna's reason is for us to support it?"

"You're not going to let the company go into the hands of an outsider, are you? What's more, there is no brain to make money in business. ”

The man who had just spoken seemed to feel that something was wrong. said: "Miss Su Ke is also the daughter of the chairman, not to mention that her mother is still alive, how can she be regarded as an outsider?" ”

"My mother is still alive, have you forgotten that her mother and my father have been divorced for many years, and they no longer have any affection, do you think it is still necessary to give her?"

Su Anna stared at the man who had just spoken.

"Even so, that's not an outsider!"

"At this point, as for whether you want the company to grow bigger, or whether you want to slump from now on, it's all in your thoughts."

After speaking, Su Anna got up and left the company with Su Anlin.

"Su ...... Sister, they are all veterans of the company, you say so. I'm afraid there will be fewer people to support you tomorrow. ”

Su Anlin was just about to call her by name, but when he thought of what she said, he quickly changed his words.

Su Anna gladly accepted her change of title.

"What about the patriarchs? You can't rely on the old to sell the old, I just let them know that they must follow my rules here! ”

Su Anlin listened and didn't say a word.

"Did you scare you!? But it's also against them. ”

"Nope." Su Anlin shook his head.

Su Anna's posture is really two people.

Su Anlin became more and more curious, what kind of person is she? Why have I been abroad for so many years, but when I come back, I know everything about my family.

All these doubts swirled in her mind, and I am afraid only time will tell.

……

Mu Nanyi took Su Ke home, and the family doctor was already waiting at the door.

Seeing Su Ke lying on the bed, the family doctor examined Su Ke.

"How? How could Coco's body faint all of a sudden? Mu Nanyi asked eagerly.

"Mrs. Mu is just too tired, plus some low blood sugar, lack of sleep, she fainted, she needs to sleep well now, and then eat some blood-replenishing food."

"Okay."

Mu Nanyi watched Su Ke fall asleep with even breathing, and felt a little relieved when he heard that nothing happened.

In the past few days, Su Ke has lost a lot of weight, and he has no appetite for anything.

"Yuan Yi, you let the kitchen cook some food according to the doctor's instructions, and wait for the lady to wake up."

"Okay, Mr. Mu."

Yuan Yi agreed, the person did not leave, obviously there was still something to say.

"Anything else?"

"Yes, Miss Su Anna went to Mr. Su's company, and I heard that tomorrow is the company's quarterly board of directors. And tomorrow will be different from the past, and the distribution of shares is the key. ”

At this point, Yuan Yi's words have already been understood.

It's just that what he doesn't understand is, what is the reason why Suanna is going today? Does she want to take over the company?

"Is the purchase contract ready?"

"It's been planned, in your study, in addition, there hasn't been any movement on Master Mu's side recently, it seems to have been quiet for a moment."

"Well, keep an eye on it."

After Mu Nanyi finished speaking, he stuffed Su Ke with a quilt, and turned around and went to the upstairs study.

A document was sitting on the table.

It was the document of M Moser's acquisition of Su Yuhua's company, which was Su Yuhua's last wish before his death.

He should have guessed that if he left, someone would have something to think about the company's shares.

It's better to let Mu Nanyi buy it. In this way, the Su family's company can still exist before.

On the document, Su Yuhua's autograph has already been obtained, and the content on it was just printed today, and it was printed according to Su Yuhua's requirements.

Now that it has come into effect, tomorrow, in the shopping mall in the north city, there will be another reshuffle.

The airport in the North City at this time.

A plane flying back from France landed successfully, and Mu Yanmo, who had not been seen for a long time, got off the plane.

Wearing sunglasses, pushing his luggage out of the airport.

His car was already parked in the parking lot, and it was only ten minutes away.

When he was about to walk to the front of the car, suddenly several big men came out of his side, and without saying a word, he immediately smashed down with sticks towards Mu Yanmo.

Without the slightest drag on the mud and water, from beginning to end for ten minutes, in one go.

After the fight, without saying anything, several big men disappeared as if they had never appeared.

Mu Yanmo's nose was blue and his face was swollen, and his originally neat and decent suit was like a beggar along the road at the moment.

Struggling to get up from the ground, holding on to the car door, taking out his mobile phone and making a call, the whole person fainted.

……

Mu Nanyi, who was in the study, received the call, and his face suddenly sank.

He knew that Mu Yanmo was a man and would never make enemies outside.

This person obviously knew about Mu Yanmo's flight and was already waiting there.

Strangely, however, he just took a beating and left.

checked the flight situation, and ambushed in the parking lot in advance, but let it go so easily.

Something wasn't quite right, Mu Nanyi guessed in his heart.

"Settle Mu Yanmo, let the best doctor go and see him, and I'll take care of the rest."

Mu Nanyi hung up the phone, turned around and found that he had gone to the door of the current study.

"Why are you standing here? Not having a good rest? ”

Mu Nanyi hurriedly sat down with Su Ke in her arms and asked her with concern.

"I'm fine, I've slept a little better, and I didn't see you when I woke up, so I came over to take a look."

"Have you eaten the food that the kitchen has cooked for you? The doctor said that you have low blood sugar and do not sleep well, so you need to eat well and sleep well. ”

Mu Nanyi gently brushed aside the broken hair on her forehead and whispered.

"Eat, I've listened to everything you said. I just heard you say that Brother Mu ......"

"It's okay, the person has been sent to the hospital, let's go see it tomorrow."

Su Ke nodded, although he didn't have much contact with Mu Yanmo, he was still a good person.

I just don't know who will really do it to him.

"By the way, there's something I want to tell you."

Mu Nanyi said, took out the purchase contract from the side, and put it in front of Su Ke.

"This is ......" Su Ke only looked at the previous title.

"This is what Dad told me before leaving, I have prepared the content now, if you see that there is no problem, I will announce it tomorrow when I go to the company."

Su Ke took a general look, and there was no big problem.

In addition, since it was Su Yuhua's personal confession, she naturally had nothing to say.

"Dad's decision...... Wouldn't it be a little bit bad? Su Ke asked.

Su Yuhua has four children. Maybe someone is just staring at this share, staring at the company.

But as soon as Su Yuhua's contract came, their ideas came to naught.

"That's what Dad was worried about, so I kept this hand, respect his meaning."

Mu Nanyi hugged Su Ke, and his arms tightened.

Su Ke naturally didn't have any doubts, she didn't have too many ambitions for the company, and she didn't want to fight for anything.

"Okay, let's go to the company tomorrow."

……

Early the next morning, Mu Nanyi and Su Ke were both dressed in formal clothes and entered the company at the same time.

At this moment, in the conference room upstairs, the board of directors has already arrived.

Su Zijun and the three of them also sat on both sides, and the chairman's position in front of them was vacant alone.

Suanna glanced at the people sitting below, and it seemed that she had returned victorious today.

The door of the conference room opened, and Su Ke walked in front, holding the documents in his hand, and walked towards the rostrum step by step.

Mu Nanyi followed behind him, and his eyes slowly stared at Su Ke.

The people sitting below are no strangers to these two people, one is Su Yuhua's daughter, and the other is the head of the Mu Group, who has been acting as an agent for the company's affairs during this time.

Su Ke stood on the rostrum without any hesitation and glanced at everyone.

"Coco, this position is to honor Dad, your position is here."

Suanna said, pointing to the empty seat across from her.

Su Ke smiled and said, "I know, but I'm standing here and don't plan to sit down." I have something to announce, my father's last will. ”

"What? And a will? ”

"How so? Does it seem to have something to do with the company? ”

There was a burst of discussion below, and as Su Ke expected, her words would inevitably cause speculation.

"What I have in my hand is my father's will, and the company has been officially acquired by M Moser Group yesterday."

Su Ke didn't blink his eyes and said categorically.

However, this sentence gave Su Anna a slap in the face, and at the same time, there were people here who held high shares.

"How so? This purchase contract must be signed by the legal representative, and my father has passed away, how can he still sign it? ”

Suanna asked in disbelief.

Su Ke generously unfolded the contract, glanced at everyone and asked, "Please see, is this Dad's autograph?" Is there any fraud? ”

A man in front of him took a closer look, nodded and said, "This is indeed Chairman Su's autograph, and there is no fraud." ”

After getting affirmation. Su Ke closed the document and looked at Mu Nanyi next to him.

Now comes what he has to say.

"Be quiet for a moment." Mu Nanyi opened his mouth to interrupt the discussion in the conference room, "Although my company has been acquired, the company's personnel remain unchanged, and the board of directors still exists. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the door to the conference room was pushed open again.

He Muyang stood at the door with a briefcase, still with that uninhibited smile on his face.

It's just that when I saw Su Anna, my expression was still stunned.

Then he glanced at Su Ke next to him, his expression was a little weird.

"Hello everyone, I'm He Muyang, a lawyer at M Moser Group." He Muyang returned to normal and greeted everyone with a smile.

He Muyang's reputation is well-known in the legal community.

Naturally, no one will doubt him.

Su Ke and Mu Nanyi signaled, came out of the conference room and went to the bathroom.

happened to meet Su Anlin, who was also in the bathroom, Su Ke pretended not to see it, walked to the sink and washed his face.

"Su Ke, you are really vicious, pushing your own property to others."

Su Anlin suddenly said.

Su Ke was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses and understood what she meant.

"Su Anlin, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand." Su Ke said.

"Yes, I don't understand, but what I do know is that this company is my father's brainchild, and now you have given the company to others with this paper."

Su Anlin was angry, stood at the door and said.

"Give it to someone? Su Anlin, you should really listen to it in the conference room. See if it's given to someone for free, it should be yours, and not a penny will be less! ”

Su Ke only felt a little right to the cow, wiped his hands, and prepared to leave.

How could Su Anlin let her go so easily, directly blocking her way.

"Money? Sure enough, in your heart, money is the most important, just like when you married into the Mu family, it was also for money, and now you can also give your father's company to the Mu family for money! ”

"Su Anlin, you can see it clearly, it was because of your mother's debt! I had no choice but to go to the Mu family, if it weren't for me, maybe it would be you today. ”

Su Ke only felt that he couldn't explain it clearly to Su Anlin. There is a reason for everything, but in the face of Su Anlin.

Su Ke felt that there was no reason why he didn't want to talk to her.

"You don't have to make excuses for yourself, I can already see that your heart already belongs to the Mu family, that's why you would do such a thing."

"Forget it, whatever you say, even if I love money, I can't compare to your mother."

Su Ke paused when he said this, and said as if he remembered something: "I remember, your mother doesn't seem to be dead, but she shouldn't know the news of Dad's death, it seems that I need to be informed, otherwise as Dad's wife." It's not good not to be informed. ”

"Suke, you! You wicked woman! ”

Su Anlin scolded, reached out and grabbed Su Ke's clothes from behind, and was about to get entangled with her.

It's in the women's restroom and there's no one to help them.

However, Su Ke is at a disadvantage due to physical reasons.

Su Anlin pulled Su Ke's clothes, and Su Ke pinched Su Anlin's neck.

"Su Ke, if you tell me where my mother is, I'll let you go!"

"What if I don't say it?" Su Ke raised her eyebrows, she was right, Su Anlin didn't have the guts.

"If you don't say it, if you don't say it, I'll kill you!"

Su Anlin said, pushing Su Ke into the corner of the corner and restraining her to death.

"Okay. If you die, no one will know where your mother is, and you probably won't live long. ”

The more relaxed Su Ke looked, the more anxious Su Anlin became.

It's just that what he doesn't know is that Su Ke can be calm at this time.

She doesn't have a bottom in her heart, in case Su Anlin can't control herself and accidentally hurts her, it is very likely.

Now it's just time to stall and drag someone into the bathroom.

However, on this floor, there is no other office except the conference room, only the cleaning aunt can enter.

"If you dare to do anything to my mother, I can't spare you!"

"If I were real......"

"Lin Lin, don't worry, our mother is fine."

Before Su Ke's words were finished, someone pushed the door at the door and came in. It's just that this person is Su Anna.

She directly interrupted Su Ke's words, walked to Su Anlin's side and pulled her away.

"Sister, what you said is true?"

"Of course, my sister won't lie to you!"

Su Ke looked at the two people in front of her, the look of sisterhood, and couldn't help but make her want to laugh.

"Su Ke, I didn't expect you to be such a person, it disappoints me so much......"

Suanna regained her weak appearance, as if someone had bullied her.

"What's wrong with me? Please make it clear. ”

Su Ke now feels more and more funny about the two sisters of the Su family.

"This is what Dad left us, what do you do if you transfer someone else!"

If it weren't for Su Ke's sudden stubble, I'm afraid she would be the one who won now, as long as she has the right, she has the bargaining chips.

"Others? Mu Nanyi is not someone else in my eyes, he is the son-in-law recognized by my father. That's why I'll give it to him, what's more, he's been in charge of the company's affairs for a few days, just right. ”

Suanna couldn't refute it, she was indeed a step too late.

But she lost to Su Yuhua, I really couldn't imagine that in the end, it was because of Su Yuhua.

"Okay, you guys don't have any problems, right?" Su Ke glanced at the two of them before relieving himself.

came out of the bathroom, and before he arrived at the conference room, he saw Mu Nanyi at the door.

"Why are you outside? It's all good inside? Su Ke walked in and asked.

"I'm wondering, why did you go to the bathroom for so long, and if you don't come back, I'm really going to rush in and pull you."

Mu Nanyi joked with her.

"Talked to someone in there for a while." Su Ke did not deny it.

Mu Nanyi naturally knew that if Su Anna didn't ask anything, it would be really suspicious.

"Let's go, there are a few places in Muyang that require your signature."

followed Mu Nanyi back to the conference room, and everyone was no longer as energetic as they had been.

"Mrs. Mu, I need you to sign here." He Muyang took a few documents and handed them to Su Ke.

Only then did Su Ke see that Su Yuhua gave her the most of the children.

Thirty percent of the shares......

Su Ke understood Su Yuhua's mind in an instant, this was to compensate her and Yang Wenjuan.

Mu Nanyi looked at Su Ke's expression and felt sad for a moment, and patted her shoulder.

"If you don't want to, then don't push yourself."

"It's okay, since it's Dad's wish, then complete it, and I can't let Dad have regrets."

Su Ke finished speaking. Pick up a pen and sign your name on the document.

Finally, the acquisition process ended.

Since then, this company has been called Mu Nanyi's.

"Congratulations." Su Ke said.

"Well, congratulations too." Mu Nanyi gently kissed Su Ke's hair.

"Huh? Why congratulate me too? ”

"My stuff is naturally yours, so in the end, the company is still yours, but in another way."

Mu Nanyi's words made Su Ke suddenly realize.

If there is no acquisition, according to the shares of everyone left, Su Ke is still the person who holds the most shares.

It's just that in that case, it will be even more troublesome, and Su Anlin and the others must be dissatisfied with Su Yuhua's arrangement, and the losses will be serious in the later stage.

But the channel through acquisitions is different. Simple and crude.

In the end, it finally returned to Su Ke's hands.

"So, Mu Nanyi, this is what you have already budgeted for? We're just going through the motions? ”

"Hmm. So to speak. ”

When Su Ke heard this, he slapped Mu Nanyi's chest hard, "Mu Nanyi, you treat us like monkeys!" ”

"They are, you're not, you're my wife, it's too late for me to hurt you, how can I treat you like a monkey."

After Mu Nanyi finished speaking, he hugged Su Ke and sat on his lap.

I don't know when, all the people in the conference room have withdrawn, leaving only Su Ke and Mu Nanyi.

"Hey...... Mu Nanyi...... You put me down. ”

Su Ke admitted that she didn't really have the heart to do something like that in the conference room of Su Yuhua's company.

"Call me what? When will you change my name? ”

Mu Nanyi had always been dissatisfied with Su Ke's call for him, and proposed.

"Hey, hey, then ...... How is the mummy? ”

"Huh?"

Mu Nanyi snorted, holding Su Ke's waist with his hand, slightly exerting force.

"Aha, mummy, let go, I'm afraid of itching......" Su Ke collapsed weakly in Mu Nanyi's arms.

She was really afraid of itching, and she was caught by Mu Nanyi every time.

"Do you dare to give me a nickname?"

"Don't dare......"

"In what sense?"

Su Ke rolled his eyes, leaned over his head, and kissed Mu Nanyi's face.

Before she could leave, Mu Nanyi suddenly turned her face and kissed her on the lips.

And taking advantage of her unpreparedness, he entered the area with a long tongue, without giving Su Ke any chance, and completely occupied her......

After a while, Mu Nanyi let go of her, and Su Ke breathed heavily, only then did he feel like he was about to suffocate.
