“You still have me. I am your family now.” Shi Yuting’s voice was very soft, with an imperceptible hoarseness to it.
She was very happy with the sudden news that she received today. Zuo Weiyi was not happy because of Zuo Yi’s special identity and status but she was simply happy because she still had a family member alive in this world.
Shi Yuting suddenly felt that the clothes against his chest were wet. Shi Yuting frowned as he lowered his head and tried to lift her face up. However, Zuo Weiyi buried her face even further, as though she did not want to see his face.
Shi Yuting frowned and could not help but feel a little flustered as he asked, “What is wrong?”
Zuo Weiyi buried her face in his chest as she shook her head slightly and replied, calmly, “I am fine.”
Her voice was obviously hoarse and Shi Yuting could feel a slight pain in his heart.
When she was feeling the loneliest and when she was in her most helpless state, all the relatives around her began to leave her one after the other. She finally became pregnant with her baby and she thought that this baby would finally become her first family in this world. However, she really did not expect to lose her baby in a blink of an eye.
Now, someone had suddenly appeared and it seemed as though she had a grandfather who had a very powerful identity and status. Was this another joke that god was playing on her?
***
The next day.
Gu Yansheng came to the hospital early in the morning.
As he entered the ward, he saw that Zuo Weiyi was still fast asleep on her bed but Shi Yuting was nowhere to be seen at all.
This somewhat surprised him a little.
When Zuo Weiyi heard the sound of footsteps approaching her, she frowned. After that, she turned around only to see Gu Yansheng walking into the ward.
After a few days in the hospital, the wound on her back had obviously gotten better but it would still hurt whenever she tried to move.
“Yansheng…”
When he saw that Zuo Weiyi was trying to sit up, Gu Yansheng quickly walked over to her bed as he helped her to sit up and leaned against the bed.
“Your complexion looks so much better today. Is your wound still hurting?” After sitting her down, Gu Yansheng stood aside as he looked at her delicate face with a slight smile on his face.
Zuo Weiyi also smiled. Her complexion was indeed much better compared to the past few days.
“I am fine.”
“Where is he? Is he not here?” Gu Yansheng asked as he turned his head to look around the ward. It seemed as though Shi Yuting was not coming back.
“He left this morning when Xiangyi came to look for him. It seems as though he has gone out to deal with something.”
“Is that so?” Gu Yansheng raised his brows before he smiled and sat down on the sofa next to Zuo Weiyi.
At the same time, at the end of the corridor on the VIP floor of the inpatient department, Shi Yuting was standing by a window as he listened to Xiangyi who was reporting to him.
“The person who fired that shot has been found but…” Xiangyi paused for a moment before he continued speaking, “But that person is already dead.”
As soon as he heard Xiangyi’s words, Shi Yuting turned around to face Xiangyi as he narrowed his eyes and asked, “Dead?”
Xiangyi nodded slightly as he said, “Well, based on my investigation, someone shot him to death in a dark alley in Country Z.”
“Country Z?”
Since the investigation had already reached this point, Xiangyi could already guess the identity of the mastermind who wanted to kill Shi Yuting that day.
Xiangyi believed that the spy was sent by Shi Tiannan to work for the Speaker. He must have been planning to get rid of Shi Yuting so that he could take over Shi Yuting’s role as the grandson and heir of the Shi family. Shi Tiannan probably wanted to be the person who would eventually inherit everything from the Shi family.
“After the Speaker placed you under house arrest, he arranged for Shi Tiannan to be sent to Country Z to temporarily take over your position as CEO of Di Zun Group. I believe that the subordinate who was trying to kill you that day was sent to do so by Shi Tiannan. However, the hitman was eventually killed when he failed to complete his mission that day.”
As soon as he heard Xiangyi’s words, Shi Yuting raised his eyes to look into the distance. There was a flash of murderous anger in his eyes.
“Does he really think that he could do anything he wants just because he has his grandfather’s protection?”
“What do you plan to do then?”
