Surprised, Shen Zihao asked, “Why are you here?”
Taking a quick and furtive look around, he took Shen Zihao’s arm and dragged him aside, saying, “Young Master Zihao, given what has happened to Sir, I’m just hanging around to see what else is needed. I’ve come here because Madam sent me to buy dinner. But that’s not the important thing, Young Master Zihao, there’s something I want to tell you.”
Shen Zihao paused and said, “Go on, what is it?”
The chauffeur quickly lowered his voice and said, “Right before this happened to Sir, he and Madam had a big fight.”
The chauffeur narrated the details of what he knew had happened between Shen Xiu and Xiao Wang, as well as the arguments with Mei Feng, “The two of them were talking about a divorce and Madam wanted half of Sir’s assets. Sir did not agree and, even now, we’re unable to locate Xiao Wang.”
Shen Zihao frowned and said impatiently, “I know all of this.”
Before he could finish, the chauffeur interrupted, “No, Young Master Zihao, this is not the point I’m trying to make. The point I’m trying to make is…”
The chauffeur looked around furtively again. He further lowered his voice and said, “Last night, Sir actually didn’t sleep. Before he went to bed, he asked me to deliver a document to him. When I was on my way upstairs, I saw Sir walk out of the study and into his bedroom.”
Shen Zihao looked stunned. These words seemed to trigger some sort of realization in him. “What do you mean?”
The chauffeur sighed and said, “I didn’t dare continue when I saw Sir going into the bedroom. Then I heard Sir and Madam talking in the bedroom, so I went back downstairs. Later on, about half an hour later, Sir was dead.”
Shen Zihao’s pupils shrank back as he suddenly realized the implications of the chauffeur’s words.
Mei Feng had claimed that she had been asleep and, when she woke up, Shen Xiu had already passed out on the floor, with no breathing.
But right now, the chauffeur was saying that when Shen Xiu went into the bedroom, Mei Feng had been awake and they had even exchanged some words.
If this was the case, it meant that Mei Feng had seen Shen Xiu having an attack yet hadn’t helped him?
As though finding out about a great secret, Shen Zihao retreated in disbelief.
He had a shocked expression as he looked at the chauffeur before him. Finally, his fingers curled tightly into fists.
He could almost be sure beyond doubt of what had happened when he put together what the chauffeur had said.
Because problems had surfaced in their relationship, Mei Feng had not saved Shen Xiu when he was having a stroke.
All of these years, Dad’s blood pressure had been unstable, hence there was always a supply of medicines at home. As long as the right drugs were given to the man at the right time, he would be fine. How could he have suffered a stroke all of a sudden?
Clenching his fists tightly, all of his fury at once found an outlet finally.
Mei Feng… Mei Feng!
He pushed the chauffeur aside with one swift motion and started to walk ahead, asking at the same time, “Where is she?! I want to avenge Dad! Mei Feng!! I will not let her off!”
His expression darkened as the veins in the back of his hands swelled and raised on the surface of his skin. If he had his way, he would run her now and kill her himself.
The chauffeur jumped in fright, quickly retreated and said, “Young Master Zihao.”
Shen Zihao swept the chauffeur’s out of the way again and walked away with red eyes. He took another two steps and suddenly felt someone hold him back by his arm.
He turned around and saw Shen Liangchuan just behind him. The man said coldly, “And what do you suppose you’ll do when you find her? Kill her? And then exchange your life for hers? And what will happen to Xia Nuannuan who has just gotten out of a coma? And what will happen to Mom, who is finally about to find her hard-earned happiness?”
