Chapter 676: Chapter 678: Xu Yingying Kidnapped
Mu Shanshan had always regarded Mu Tiansheng and his son as two of a kind and had never considered this possibility. Suddenly hearing Lin Fei’s words, she found it hard to believe.
“How could that be, aren’t they in cahoots? And even if Mu Shaopeng is heartless and mad, he wouldn’t kill his own father, would he?”
Lin Fei sat down next to Mu Shanshan, took her shoulders in his hands, and looked into her eyes, speaking with a seriousness she had never heard from him before, “Shanshan, think about it, if Mu Shaopeng didn’t have a powerful backer, how could he dare to speak to us like this here?”
“Think again, with Mu Tiansheng dead, who is the most likely to inherit his wealth? I can’t think of anyone other than Mu Shaopeng, which is why he dared to say that you won’t beco the CEO of the Hospitality Group!”
Mu Shanshan cald down, carefully pondered the words Lin Fei had said, and found it to be the best explanation for the current situation, “But I still can’t bring myself to believe it.”
“Now is not the ti for disbelief. Your dad didn’t just call to inform you about Mu Tiansheng’s car accident, did he also ask us to go there?”
Mu Shanshan nodded and said Mu Tiansheng was currently being resuscitated at the City First People’s Hospital, and Mu Tiancheng had told them to rush over, “Then we should hurry, hoping that things haven’t gotten completely out of hand.”
Lin Fei stood up and urged Mu Shanshan to set off quickly. Having never seen Lin Fei so serious, Mu Shanshan couldn’t help but beco anxious as well.
Half an hour later, Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan arrived at the City First People’s Hospital and stood in front of the ergency room where Mu Tiansheng was being treated.
The area in front of the ergency room was crowded with people. Besides Mu Shaopeng and Mu Tiancheng who were already there, Lin Fei did not recognize anyone else.
Upon seeing Mu Shanshan and Lin Fei arrive, Mu Tiancheng imdiately ca over to greet them, and after exchanging a few words with Mu Shanshan, he pulled Lin Fei aside into a corner and whispered, “I think my brother has been murdered. And the person who murdered my brother is most likely my sister-in-law—Wu Yunzhi.”
Lin Fei understood—it must have been Mu Tiansheng’s wife and child working together against him. Truly a vile woman with a heart of a wolf.
“Two hours ago, my brother called
and said that he had found out who initiated the company’s tax evasion—it was Wu Yunzhi. Not only that, he had discovered that Wu Yunzhi had been bribing high-ranking officials and wealthy businessn, rallying a group of her own supporters. My brother said he was going to settle scores with Wu Yunzhi when he got ho tonight, but then the car accident happened.”
Mu Tiancheng clenched his fists, “There’s no way it’s just a coincidence. Wu Yunzhi must have been scared her deeds would co to light and sought to silence my brother. I will never let her get away with this!”
“Dad, it might not just be Wu Yunzhi involved; Mu Shaopeng is also very likely to have a hand in it.”
Seeing Mu Tiancheng’s incredulous look, Lin Fei told him about Mu Shaopeng’s unexpected visit and the harsh words he had left behind.
Mu Tiancheng had to believe it now, his teeth clenched, “How can my brother have such a beastly son!”
“What’s done is done; our anger won’t solve anything,” Lin Fei said repeatedly, “What’s urgent now is the issue of Mu Tiansheng’s wealth and the board eting on Sunday.”
“Wu Yunzhi, that wretched woman, is well-prepared. As long as my brother is incapacitated or doesn’t survive, because he didn’t make a will…” Mu Tiancheng sighed helplessly, “According to family relations, she could inherit forty percent of my brother’s fortune, and Mu Shaopeng could inherit sixty percent.”
Lin Fei had now heard the news he had hoped never to hear.
If Mu Shaopeng and Wu Yunzhi got a hold of Mu Tiansheng’s fortune, that also ant they’d be able to attend the Mu Group’s board eting on Sunday.
Consequently, it would not be certain that Mu Shanshan could smoothly assu the role of CEO of the Hospitality Group.
