Han Xi posted a picture of a meal on her social media account: stir-fried kidney blossoms, scrambled eggs with chives, stir-fried celtuce and yam, oysters, sheep testicles... From then on, the whol...
Chapter 457 Both of them were tricked
Han Xi watched as more and more reporters gathered, wondering what had happened.
She quickly opened her phone to check the news, but there was no report about Shen Jiheng, which made her even more uncertain.
Soon, the sound of an ambulance was heard. Han Xi looked over curiously and saw the car parked at the door. Shen Jiheng carried Shen Mingzhu, who was covered in blood, into the car.
Leng Yu turned around and the two looked at each other in surprise. They quickly drove off and followed.
"Xiaoyu, I didn't see wrong just now, did I? It was Ji Heng holding Mingzhu."
Leng Yu nodded: "I saw it too, it seems that the Second Miss is injured."
How did she end up getting injured at Shen Jiheng's company, and why did he have to carry her out himself?
A sense of unease welled up in Han Xi's heart, and she frowned, saying, "Could it be that she's trying to frame Ji Heng? What stupid thing has this crazy woman done?"
Han Xi became increasingly panicked, but Shen Jiheng did not answer his phone and she had no other reliable people around her, so she dared not ask him about the situation rashly.
When the ambulance arrived at Hengtian Hospital, Han Xi watched from afar as Shen Jiheng anxiously helped push the stretcher, clearly showing how worried he was.
"Miss Han, aren't you going downstairs?"
Han Xi shook his head: "Wait a moment, I want to see how things go before we talk."
Her presence now won't help at all; she might as well observe from the shadows and perhaps uncover other truths.
Han Xi secretly followed in the corner, and within a few minutes Madam Shen and Bo Siye rushed over.
Bo Siye raised his fist and walked towards Shen Jiheng, making Han Xi's heart jump out of her chest.
Fortunately, Shen Jiheng intervened in time, and the two began to argue.
“Shen Jiheng, I was the one who instigated these things, you don’t need to blame Mingzhu.”
Shen Jiheng glared at him with sharp eyes, gritting his teeth and grabbing his collar.
"It was you. You arranged all of this."
“I sent Mingzhu with the board of directors to put pressure on you to return her share. Is that wrong? She is the rightful daughter of the Shen family. Why should she only own five percent of the shares?”
It turns out it was him again; this is what the dean told them to be wary of.
Shen Mingzhu ultimately used herself as a bargaining chip to bring down Shen Jiheng in order to gain Bo Siye's trust; she really went all out.
"Stop spouting nonsense. The company's internal operations are none of your business."
"Even if it has nothing to do with me, I can't tolerate you hurting Mingzhu. If anything happens to her, I will make you pay."
Bo Siye, acting like an elder brother, reprimanded Shen Jiheng, blaming him for the whole mistake.
Shen Jiheng was really careless. He knew they had ill intentions, but he still failed to seize it.
They were scheming and willing to risk their lives; he simply couldn't defend against them.
"Alright, stop arguing, Mingzhu is still in the emergency room."
Madam Shen's voice trembled slightly. She had just heard from the hospital director that the situation was serious and the baby was definitely going to die. She didn't know how to explain it to Shen Mingzhu.
Since Zhou Yiming passed away, it has been this child who has kept Shen Mingzhu alive. Now that the accident has happened, it is said that Shen Jiheng pushed her and caused the glass to break.
"How much force must have been used to cause such a serious impact?" Madam Shen's face darkened.
Bo Siye said, "Mom, Shen Jiheng has never been good to Mingzhu. Now he's actually going after her. She's pregnant. They've known each other for over twenty years. How could he do this to her?"
Shen Jiheng glared at him angrily and snapped, "Do you want to fight here?!"
"Do you think I'm afraid of you because of Mingzhu? She was still demanding her shares in the end. How long are you going to hold onto them? Do you have to wait until she dies before giving them back to her?!"
Bo Siye's sharp words struck at Shen Jiheng's heart, aiming to push him to the brink.
Madam Shen also spoke up: "Ji Heng, since things have come to this point, just return the portion that originally belonged to Mingzhu to her."
Shen Jiheng turned to look at her and asked seriously, "Mom, are you serious?"
Madam Shen should know very well why Shen Jiheng kept the shares in his own hands and wouldn't give them to her.
They have come to know firsthand what a spendthrift Shen Mingzhu is over the past decade, and that's why they've kept the shares in her possession to prevent her from squandering them.
If we give it back to her now, who knows what she'll do?
Bo Siye chimed in, "Since Mom has spoken, what else do you have to say? Didn't you swear before that you didn't care about these things? How come when it's really time to hand them over, you're still unwilling?"
Shen Jiheng glared at him coldly and said sternly, "I didn't say I wouldn't, it's just not under these circumstances."
Bo Siye smiled knowingly and looked at Madam Shen again.
"Mom, there's another matter. Shouldn't we also take back the shares held by Han Xi and her son?"
These words made the atmosphere even more tense, and Bo Siye continued speaking.
“You didn’t care back then because of the child, but now that it’s confirmed that it has nothing to do with our Shen family, then outsiders shouldn’t control the shares. Don’t you agree with me?”
Madam Shen was in a state of confusion. Hearing this, she nodded in agreement, acknowledging that it was indeed true.
Shen Jiheng thought he was just stirring up trouble, and if the timing wasn't wrong, he really wanted to give him a good beating.
"I have my own ideas about these things, and it's not your place to interfere."
Han Xi slowly retreated to a corner and gestured to Leng Yu to leave first.
Leng Yu followed behind curiously, asking in bewilderment, "Aren't you going up? You want to see the CEO all alone, facing enemies from all sides?"
Han Xi shook her head: "I can't help if I go up there. It will only make things difficult for Ji Heng. Let's go back to the company. I need to figure out what's going on. I believe that Ji Heng would never hurt Mingzhu. There must be some misunderstanding."
Instead of waiting aimlessly, we should find out the truth.
Shen Jiheng may have overlooked something when he was anxious, so he needs to calm down.
Leng Yu agreed immediately after hearing this, "I was thinking too simply."
“We’re going back to the company right away. Tell the people there that no one is allowed to approach the scene.”
"Understood, I'll arrange it right away."
Han Xi couldn't allow anyone to slander Shen Jiheng, and he couldn't let Bo Siye drive a wedge between him and the Shen family.
Han Xi just couldn't understand why Shen Mingzhu was still so foolish to this day, willingly becoming someone else's pawn.
She could have lived a carefree life as a young lady, but she insisted on getting involved in these conflicts. Did she really think she could survive in the jaws of two tigers?
When Han Xi returned to the Shen Group, there were no reporters downstairs. She went to a conference room where the incident had occurred. Since it had been arranged beforehand that no one would clean up the scene, she could still see a pool of blood on the floor.
Han Xi saw the broken glass, shook his head and said, "That was a really hard impact. It must have hurt so much if someone hadn't pushed it up or if it had just slammed into it itself."
What benefits did Bo Siye promise her that made her dare to risk her life?
Leng Yu also helped with the inspection and found a transparent marble in the corner, which she quickly handed to her to see.
"Miss Han, look, there are marbles. If someone accidentally steps on them, they will definitely slip and fall."
"It seems that someone planned this in advance, and both of them were tricked."
