Chapter 522: Injured or Dead

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Among the brothers, only Shi He and Shi Mu had the most similar personalities.

Shi Mu knew Shi He well. Even if he had no choice, Shi He might not choose to commit suicide! That was why what happened today was especially strange!

Shi Zhong narrowed his eyes. He was so cautious and calm that he did not seem like a father who was about to lose his son. “Get someone to investigate what happened before and after Xiao He jumped off the building and determine if this matter is really related to Lin Yue.”

“Alright.” Shi Ke endured his grief and quietly walked up to Shen Xian. He squatted down and held his mother’s hand comfortingly. “Mom, don’t be sad first. Xiao He might be fine. 1 heard from the police that the rescue team did their best and cushioned him in midair. Although he still fell in the end, the impact on the airbag was not strong. He will definitely be fine!”

His words were filled with determination. Not only was he trying his best to comfort Shen Xian, but he was also trying his best to convince himself to believe it.

Even so, jumping down from He Man’s building would definitely cause huge damage to Shi He’s body.

“Go ahead. I’m here for your mother.” Shi Zhong urged Shi Ke to hurry up. He was afraid that some people would destroy the evidence against them while they were all in the hospital.

However, Shi Zhong’s concerns were clearly unnecessary because Shi Man had driven back to He Man Entertainment early and met Lin Yue, who had been waiting for her at the top of the company.

After four hours, the surgical light finally went out above.

Shen Xian ran to the door in a hurry and did not even bother to wipe her tears. She grabbed the doctor’s hand and begged urgently, “Doctor, how’s my son? He must be fine, right? We can do anything he needs! Please, doctor!”

“Don’t be agitated first.” The doctor sighed. His dry eyes, which had been focused in the operation for a long time, looked around the corridor. “Are you all the families of the injured?”

“Yes, Doctor. How is my brother?!” Shi Mu kept asking anxiously. He noticed that the doctor addressed him as “injured” and nothing else. He almost couldn’t help but stomp his feet in excitement.

The doctor nodded at them and said, “Fortunately, the impact of the injured person’s fall was reduced. He’s temporarily out of danger, but there are still many fractures all over his body. You have to take care of him carefully. I’ll tell you everything you need to take note of during the ward round.”

Hearing the doctor’s words, the Shi family finally heaved a sigh of relief.

The tense strings in Shen Xian’s mind suddenly snapped. Even her legs could not help but turn weak. If not for Shi Zhong supporting her, she would have fallen to the ground and could not get up.

On the top floor of He Man Entertainment, Lin Yue sat elegantly in the office chair, her hands forming a tower in front of her chest. She smiled at the aggressive woman at the door. “You came a little slower than 1 thought.”

Shi Man sneered and turned to look at Wan Na, who was following behind her. Her intention of expelling her was very obvious.

Lin Yue waved at Wan Na and gestured for her to leave first. Then, she smiled and pointed at the sofa opposite the desk. “CEO Shi, I know what you want to ask this time. It’s my choice whether I should tell the truth or not.”

“Do you think you still have the chance to keep your mouth shut?” Shi Man walked slowly to Lin Yue with the dagger in her hand. The blade was pressed against her neck as she asked coldly, “Chi Ling, do you know her?”

A trace of surprise appeared in Lin Yue’s eyes, but this expression disappeared in an instant. Then, she regained her composure. “CEO Shi, who is this person you’re talking about? I’ve never heard of her.”

“Is that so?” Shi Man moved the dagger another inch forward and cut into her flesh. She watched as her blood flowed down the blade, and her eyes reflected a bloodthirsty cold light. “Then you know Lin Si, right?”

Lin Yue was still smiling, but she secretly clenched her fair hands on the armrest. It was unknown if it was because of the pain of her wound or some other reason, but she said, “I’m sorry, 1 don’t know this person either. Lin Si? Is this person’s surname Lin? But why have 1 never heard of this name?”

When she spoke, her tone was calm and her breathing was stable. She did not show any fear even when the knife was placed on her neck.

At this point, her expression did not change. This was expected of a popular female celebrity. Even Shi Man could not help but admire her acting skills.

Shi Man retracted the dagger and looked down at Lin Yue’s pale face. She said coldly, “More than ten years ago, you were almost kidnapped. It was Lin Si who saved you, right? But now, he wants you to kill someone?”

“CEO Shi, I think you must have misunderstood. Shi He’s matter really has nothing to do with me.” Lin Yue looked up at her with a smile. Just from her aura, she was not at a disadvantage at all.

Shi Man narrowed her eyes and her expression darkened. “In that case, I can only invite Miss Lin to my place for tea.”

She raised her hand and grabbed Lin Yue’s wrist tightly. She pulled her up from the chair and was about to leave the office with her.

Only then did a trace of panic flash in Lin Yue’s eyes.. She did not expect Shi Man to be so simple and crude!
