"I haven't investigated that. I heard from the police that the tanker truck driver was already dead, and that he was stunned at the moment of the crash and burned alive in the explosion."

"Because the driver was dead and there was no other evidence, the police determined that it was an accidental car crash."

After a pause, Aunt Zhou asked:

"Xiao Yi, have you discovered something?"

Zhou Yi remained silent for a moment. He had a premonition that the tanker truck driver's accident was not an accident.

Seeing the bloodshot in Aunt Zhou's eyes, Zhou Yi knew that in the days since his accident, Aunt Zhou must have been running between the hospital and the company, exhausting herself.

He lacked substantial evidence, and with the murderer already dead, even if he wanted to investigate, he wouldn't know where to begin for the time being.

Since that's the case, there's no need for Aunt Zhou to worry about me.

"No, I was just asking casually."

Aunt Zhou frowned as she looked at Zhou Yi. She didn't think Zhou Yi was the type to ask a question casually, but Zhou Yi's expression was too calm, making Aunt Zhou wonder if she was being too sensitive.

Perhaps it's because too much has happened to me lately that I'm overly anxious.

Aunt Zhou stopped talking to Zhou Yi about the matter and instead told him about the company: "Xiao Yi, our pharmacological shampoo has been a huge hit since it hit the market."

"We originally only prepared a million units, but we never expected that they would be sold out in just two or three days."

"Now we've urgently opened several more production lines. It seems that our decision to transform was the right one. Perhaps this will be a path for the Zhou family to reach a higher position."

It was precisely for this reason that Aunt Zhou didn't have time to come to the hospital to be with Zhou Yi all the time.

This is the first batch of products for the company's transformation market, so naturally, no accidents can happen. Aunt Zhou needs to personally monitor the market response.

Because of the medicated shampoo, those shareholders who were still skeptical of Zhou Yi began to praise him after seeing the positive market reviews.

If sales continue at this rate throughout the year, the profit target Zhou Yi mentioned at the shareholders' meeting will definitely be achieved.

Zhou Yi picked up his phone from the cabinet next to him and searched for pharmacological shampoo.

The next second.

The comments then caught his eye—

[Haha, my hair has grown long! I've personally tested Zhou's Group's medicated shampoo and it works! Sisters, hurry up and try it!]

I also bought Zhou's Group's shampoo. My hair isn't as oily after washing it, and my roommate said it smells great and wants to cuddle with me.

[Does the person upstairs also think it smells amazing? I think it smells amazing too! I checked the ingredient list, and it has ylang-ylang. Who can resist this scent? If you wash your hair like this before going out to see your boyfriend, he'll definitely want to stick close to you.]

I was trying to snag a bottle of shampoo, but I couldn't get it. Even with 30 years of lightning-fast reflexes, I still couldn't get it. I'm so upset.

[Don't cry, upstairs. Be patient. Zhou's Group has already posted an announcement on their official website that they've started emergency production. Everyone will be able to buy them in a few days.]

【........】

Zhou Yi quickly glanced at the online comments and smiled, "It seems the response is indeed good, and the reputation is secure."

"Auntie, we need to be more careful, especially at times like this, and pay attention to the online atmosphere to prevent accidents and people spreading rumors and trying to gain attention."

"Look, I only have minor scratches. You don't need to come to the hospital to see me anymore."

"Take some rest when you have time. I think you haven't slept for days."

As Zhou Yi spoke, Aunt Zhou, who was sitting next to him, yawned several times. Her eyes were dark and she looked very tired.

-

The next day.

Kyoto.

When Grandpa Shen saw Grandpa Qi come to visit again, he was somewhat surprised and helpless. He thought that Grandpa Qi had come to look for his daughter again, but when he saw that there was a young man in his early twenties with him, he suppressed his guess.

He subtly glanced at the boy sitting next to Old Master Qi for a few seconds, then looked at Old Master Qi and smiled, "Old Qi, what brings you here this time?"

"They can't possibly be here to have tea and chat with their old comrade-in-arms, can they?"

Grandpa Qi has always liked to speak his mind.

He glanced at Su Jian and introduced him to Old Master Shen with a smile: "This is my adopted daughter's son, and also my half-grandson, Su Jian!"

“He has lived abroad for many years and only recently returned.”

"Su Jian, why don't you greet Old Master Shen?"

Su Jian was dressed very formally today, in a well-tailored suit. His blue hair had already been dyed black by Old Master Qi.

Su Jian has very strong features, and dressed in a conventional manner, he looks a bit more mature.

Su Jian grinned and pretended to be a sensible junior, saying, "Hello, Grandpa Shen. I've heard of your great reputation abroad and have always wanted to meet you."

"Now that I see Grandpa Shen, he is indeed as rumored, a remarkable and outstanding figure like Cao Cao."

The smile on Old Master Shen's face did not deepen because of Su Jian's flattery; as someone in a high position, he had heard too many such empty words.

Old Master Shen's smile carried a sense of aloofness, yet it didn't come across as particularly cold or hard.

"Hehe, Grandpa Qi is so lucky. Not only did he raise a beautiful and intelligent daughter, but now he also has such a handsome grandson."

Old Master Qi sat upright, and upon hearing Old Master Shen's praise, his expression dimmed slightly.

What a pity!

They were all raised.

This grandson of his, to put it nicely, is actually not related to him by blood at all.

Unlike Mr. Shen, although his family has a hereditary disease that modern medicine cannot cure, Mr. Shen has already lived a life with many children and grandchildren.

This is what Grandpa Qi truly wanted, but he may never experience the joy of having a house full of children and grandchildren in his lifetime.

After all, she was his own biological daughter...

Realizing that his thoughts had wandered, Old Master Qi quickly composed himself, met Old Master Shen's probing gaze, and said, "Haha, Old Shen, I won't bother with formalities. I've come to your house today because I really have something to discuss."

"That's right... Su Jian returned from abroad and met your granddaughter Shen Bingyan once."

"That kid is hopeless. He only met her once, and when he got home he was making a fuss that he would marry no one but Shen Bingyan. He fell in love with Bingyan at first sight."

"So, he begged me to bring him to the Shen family to propose marriage to Shen Bingyan."

The smile on Old Master Shen's face froze instantly. He wanted to marry his most cherished granddaughter?

That won't do!

Although the young man was decent-looking, Old Master Shen only thought he was good-looking. In terms of talent, ability, and status, the young man was far from being a good match for his granddaughter.

His granddaughter was his own bloodline, whom he had carefully nurtured since childhood. She was the future head of the family and the one who would succeed him. Moreover, she was so sensible and intelligent. How could Old Master Shen bear to let her get married so early?
