Shi Yuan entered the door.
Shi Wancheng heard the noise and turned to look at her, "Where did you go just now?"
"I went back to Sister Shi Su’s side and read so books for a while." Shi Yuan answered honestly, her gaze towards Shi Wancheng was still sowhat timid, reminiscent of the last ti she was called out of the hospital, when she heard his voice on the phone, exhibiting that sa small and fearful deanor.
Shi Wancheng didn’t ask how she was staying with Shi Su, perhaps he already knew about all these matters within the Shi Family.
Though he didn’t ask, he looked Shi Yuan over twice and asked plainly, "Where is Shi Su?"
Shi Yuan lowered her head, her fingertips nervously twisted together, "I-I don’t know... but I didn’t see her there when I went back, the maid auntie said it seems Sister Shi Su went to the hospital, the family just sent a car to take her there."
"Hospital?"
"Yes."
"To see Jing Jihan?"
"Yes."
"Jing Jihan still hasn’t woken up?"
"No." Shi Yuan looked up at him blankly, not understanding why he was asking, "Up till now Sister Shi Su hasn’t been allowed into the ICU ward, saying that Mr. Jing’s condition is too unstable, and the ward requires high-level sterility, no one can enter, including Sister Shi Su, she can only occasionally lean against the glass outside to look, several tis Sister Shi Su woke from nightmares in the middle of the night, calling Mr. Jing’s na."
Shi Wancheng understood, "What else does she do normally in the room?"
"Most of the ti she reads scripts, so variety show scripts, or she talks with her studio people about schedules in a WeChat voice chat."
Shi Wancheng frowned, looking sowhat skeptical at Shi Yuan, "Just work?"
"Sister Shi Su’s room door is usually open, I can often go to find her, but it’s not convenient to be there all the ti, at least from what I can see, she is indeed busy with those things. These past two days she just went to record a variety show, exhausted, she ca back to sleep directly after showering at night, without saying a word to ." Shi Yuan replied obediently.
Under Shi Wancheng’s expressionless gaze, Shi Yuan took a breath and added, "But when Sister goes out to work normally, I can’t follow her, like today when she went to the hospital, I also couldn’t stick with her all the ti..."
Shi Wancheng suddenly approached her, looking down at the little girl who was so nervous her face had turned white, "Did you hear the conversation I had with your mother just now?"
Shi Yuan nodded.
"Shi Yuan, you have a long life ahead of you; do you know what you should do?"
"...Yes."
"I’ll ask you once more, who did Shi Su privately contact? You’ve been by her side for so many days, especially during the days she was in the hospital, only you were in her room, who else did she see?" Shi Wancheng’s voice was very low, each word seed ordinary, but in fact, harbored a distinct undertone of distrust and coldness.
Shi Yuan was so frightened that she backed up a step, choking up, "I-I... I only saw her manager and the boss of her studio co to visit her. During that period, Sister Shi Su investigated surveillance before the fire at Six Blessings Building, but it seems like she found nothing... Later, she returned to the Shi Family... All these days she has been at ho, except for occasionally going out to work, recording programs, and so safe announcents, and going to the hospital to see Mr. Jing..."
Shi Wancheng narrowed his eyes coldly, "The variety show she went to, is the director’s surna He?"
Shi Yuan was so scared her eyes turned red, nearly in tears, "Uncle, I really don’t know, Sister Shi Su isn’t foolish, she can’t tell everything; I can only know what I can see and hear... I, I don’t know anyone with the surna He, but there’s a director Sister Shi Su regularly contacts, seems to have the surna Xv, she refers to him as Assistant Director Xv, I’ve never heard of soone surnad He... It might be they’re not close, or apart from work, they have no private contact, so I really don’t know..."
Shi Wancheng looked at her for a while longer, seeing that the young girl had already been pushed to tears. He didn’t say more, only glanced again at Shi Jiangling, whose expression wasn’t very good, then walked out directly, expressionless.
It wasn’t until Shi Wancheng had gone far that Shi Yuan raised her hand to wipe her tears, looking at her mother.
Shi Jiangling asked her in a soft voice, "Is what you just said the truth?"
Shi Yuan lightly responded, "Yes."
"I thought you have been all focused on Shi Su recently, and wouldn’t betray her." Shi Jiangling’s expression was sowhat complex, sighing at how she and her daughter couldn’t find much peace in such an environnt.
Shi Yuan wiped her tears once more, then gave her mom a look that offered so reassurance, "Sister told to tell the truth, she said to just say what I see, no need to intentionally conceal. She said that these things, Shi Wancheng probably already knows, there can’t be only as an ’informant’ at ho, so just say what I see directly, that way he wouldn’t intentionally target us."
Shi Jiangling was silent for a mont before saying, "Jing Jihan still hasn’t woken up. If in the end, sothing unfortunate happens, and the old man from the Jing Family insists on getting involved in this, no one would have a good outco, especially Shi Su would be stuck in the middle, unable to breathe. She has now lost Jing Jihan as her backing, and whether the Jing Family would protect her is uncertain. She carries many uncertainties; do you really want to stand by her side?"
Shi Yuan nodded.
Shi Jiangling sighed, "I understand."
-
After Shi Su visited the hospital, she didn’t leave through the main gate.
Shi Wancheng certainly had soone secretly following her to know where she was and what she was doing.
Lu Zhao helped her open the rarely-used small door at the back fire exit of the hospital and took a car to leave, going to Mr. He’s tea estate and t with Mr. He. At the sa ti, invited to the tea estate were several senior officials of Jingjian, invited out by Mr. He.
After dinner, Shi Su took a car back to the hospital, entering from the back door, and left again from the hospital’s front entrance before dark, returning to the Shi Family.
Two days later, Shi Su accompanied Jun and Miss Chen to the 4S shop to retrieve a car. Jun and Miss Chen nagged her all the way about how she managed to rear-end a car by herself late at night, making them uncomfortable riding other cars these days in the capital, saying only their studio’s car is the most comfortable and convenient.
Just as they were getting ready to leave the 4S shop, two n also there to pick up a car approached and took Yi City’s rcedes SUV.
The car was parked outside, and as Shi Su was about to get into her own car, one of the n approached, politely saying, "Miss Shi, we are here to help Mr. Yi with his car, we just called Mr. Yi, he’s nearby, and he knows you are here, he’d like to et you."
Shi Su looked at them, "Since he’s nearby, why doesn’t he just co over if he wants to et ? Why have you deliver the ssage?"
The man first glanced around cautiously, looking at the vehicles parked nearby, then gave her a aningful look, whispering, "It’s inconvenient."
