The two of them talked, and they suddenly saw Shi Qian appear beside the bookshelf with a book in her hand.
“Time… Shi Qian!”
“Shi Qian!”
They said in unison. Their surprised tone carried a trace of fear.
Shi Qian was actually behind the bookshelf!
Why was she in the library?
Shi Qian glanced at the two indifferently. She walked to the side and found a seat to sit down.
Then, she stuffed the Bluetooth headset into her ear.
The two girls were startled. But they quickly ran away!
Shi Yaorong was at the Shi Family’s villa.
Shi Yaorong paced around the living room anxiously. Recently, all the companies connected to the Shi Family canceled their cooperation.
What followed was the company’s capital chain break.
Shi Yaorong called for help, but no one was willing to help.
Some people were interested in the beginning. But later on, they simply blocked his phone number.
Shi Yaorong gripped his phone. Anger engulfed his heart.
Song Yuzhi came downstairs with red eyes. “Hubby, Xue’er is being tortured beyond recognition. What should we do?”
Shi Yaorong was depressed and said, “She brought this upon herself! Why did she have to provoke Qianqian? She knew that Qianqian had the protection of the four great families, yet she still dared to hire an assassin!”
“People from the four great families! Are they the ones targeting us?”
“Other than the people from the four great families, who else can be so arrogant? It’s the work of the Sheng Family’s Crown Prince! He’s just venting his anger on Qianqian!”
“Then…” Song Yuzhi muttered. Should we go and talk to Qianqian? No matter what, we’re family. That poison can kill Xu’er, right?”
Shi Yaorong frowned and did not say anything.
It was arduous for him to get from Lan City to the Imperial Capital and start to get in touch with these wealthy families. He could not give up so easily.
Shi Yaorong pondered. He walked out and ignored Song Yuzhi and her daughter.
Song Yuzhi stood in the living room and watched Shi Yaorong drive away. Her hands suddenly tightened.
She gritted her teeth and said, “It’s all that little b*tch’s fault. I should have made sure that she was dead before I left.”
Shi Muxue came out of her room and stood at the staircase.
Her face was pale and haggard. In just a few days, she had lost a lot of weight and looked very wasteful.
“Mom.” Shi Muxue’s voice was weak.
“Muxue, why did you leave the room?” Song Yuzhi looked at her and asked worriedly.
As she spoke, she immediately went up the stairs to support her.
“Mom, where’s Dad?” Shi Muxue asked in pain. Did he go to look for Shi Qian?”
She really couldn’t take it anymore. These few days, she had been in so much pain that she felt like she was about to die. She could die anytime if she didn’t get the antidote.
“Your dad just went out. He probably went to look for her.”
Shi Muxue narrowed her eyes and looked out the window. “Shi Qian, that b*tch. Sooner or later, she’ll suffer a pain that’s a million times more painful than mine.”
Shi Yaorong arrived at the entrance of Imperial University early in the morning.
Instead of contacting Shi Qian, he stood by the roadside and looked around.
Sheng Xu appeared, and he immediately walked up to him. “Young Master Sheng.”
Sheng Xu stopped in his tracks and looked at him without saying anything.
Shi Yaorong said carefully, “Young Master Sheng, it’s all my fault. It’s Muxue’s fault. You’ve already taught us a lesson. Can you please be magnanimous and let my company go?”
“What do you mean, Mr. Shi?” Sheng Xu asked lazily.
“I know that you were the one who sent those people to the Shi Family that day. Also, I know that my company has been facing various situations recently. Everyone wouldn’t cut their cooperation off with me and not even pick up my calls. I know you are in control of this.
“Young Master Sheng, I know you like Qianqian, but that girl has a bad temper. If you can be merciful, I can… I can think of a way to make Qianqian like Young Master Sheng..”
