As I looked in that direction, I saw three Rolls-Royces parked at the corner of the street.
The car in the middle had its windows half-rolled and the light inside was dim.
Sitting in the back seat was a man who was over sixty years old but still looked very handsome.
Time seemed to be particularly kind to him, and did not leave too many wrinkles on his face.
There is an innate nobility in his sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes.
His deep eyes are like a deep pool, hiding deep fatherly love.
At this moment, the gaze was fixed on Shi Heng and Gu Youran.
This person is Shi Zhengyang, the head of the Shi family, one of the four major families in the capital.
Over the years, he has been a master of the business world and controls the lifeline of his family's business empire.
Zhuo Lin, 32 years old, who was sitting in the driver's seat, had followed Shi Zhengyang for many years and was his personal assistant and bodyguard.
He has been carefully nurtured by the Shi family since he was young and is considered a leader among the younger generation.
Now, the reason why they are here is because they have just inspected one of the important industries of the Shi family - Shengshi Mingdu.
Zhuo Lin coughed lightly, breaking the silence in the car. "Master, look at the young master and the young mistress. They have such a good relationship. You haven't seen the young master for more than a year. Do you want to go down and say hello?"
Shi Zhengyang shook his head, his face full of dejection. "Never mind. The incident of the illegitimate child caused a huge uproar in the city, and the knot in Heng'er's heart has not been untied to this day."
"If we go down now, it will probably only intensify the conflict and make him even more disgusted."
Zhuo Lin frowned, his face showing reluctance. "I understand your painstaking efforts, but it's not good to leave the young master alone all the time. Besides, the lady has also suffered a lot of grievances in recent years because of the illegitimate child."
Shi Zhengyang clenched his fists, his eyes filled with anger: "Humph, it must be the work of those evil-minded people in the family."
"Heng'er has been striving for success since he was young. He didn't rely on his family and built his own career. I was so happy for him, but now he's in such a mess."
Zhuo Lin continued, "Yes, the company's business is currently blocked, the capital chain is tight, and the family is in a state of panic. All signs indicate that this is a long-planned conspiracy."
"By the way, speaking of that illegitimate child, you personally supervised the paternity test, and the result showed that it is indeed your child."
"But you have always been loyal to your wife. What happened? I still haven't figured out the reason. It's really confusing."
Shi Zhengyang frowned, his face filled with confusion and regret. "I'm also extremely puzzled. I've never done anything to let my wife down in all these years, but this child suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and the paternity test is irrefutable."
"Someone must be plotting something behind the scenes, trying to use this child to turn our Shi family upside down and attack us from all sides, including our business and family relationships."
Zhuo Lin nodded, "Also, the old lady changed the name of the illegitimate child, included him in the family tree, and brought his mother back to the old house. Are we really not going to care about this?"
Shi Zhengyang's eyes glared, "Don't move yet. The old lady has made up her mind. Forcibly stopping her will only intensify the conflict, and her loved ones will be sad and her enemies will be happy."
Zhuo Lin continued, "The old lady intends to arrange for him to join the company. What should we do?"
Shi Zhengyang snorted coldly, "Then arrange a position for him and see how he behaves when the time comes."
"In the company, every move is under the watchful eyes of everyone, which makes it easier for him to reveal his true intentions. I want to see what tricks those people behind the scenes are planning to use him to play."
Shi Zhengyang paused and his gaze returned to Shi Heng and Gu Youran outside the window.
A hint of surprise and relief flashed in his eyes, and he continued, "However, seeing Heng'er and that girl getting along so sweetly, I really didn't expect it."
"This child is usually cold and emotionless, but now he seems to have become a different person, becoming more emotional and down-to-earth. It seems to be this girl's credit. I just hope they can always be so happy and not be affected by these family troubles."
Zhuo Lin responded, "The Patriarch is wise, but the Young Master is really going to leave him hanging like this?"
Shi Zhengyang sighed, "I have my own arrangements for Heng'er. When the time is right, I will explain everything to him."
"The most urgent task is to find out the mastermind behind this and protect my family."
Zhuo Lin nodded quickly, "Don't worry, Master. I'll also pay more attention here. By the way, on the way here, I saw a few suspicious people hanging around the company."
Shi Zhengyang's eyes tightened, and he asked anxiously, "Did you see the appearance clearly?"
Zhuo Lin shook his head and said with some annoyance: "I didn't see it clearly, but I remember the general shape and will check it later."
Shi Zhengyang pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, "We must get to the bottom of this. Okay, let's go back first. Don't stay here too long, or you'll attract unnecessary attention."
Zhuo Lin responded and started the car.
Three Rolls-Royces slowly drove away and merged into the night.
…
Early the next morning.
Gu Youran walked into the hospital lobby as usual.
The nurse at the information desk was sorting through documents with her head down. She caught a glimpse of her from the corner of her eye, and she jumped up, shouting at the top of her lungs, "Doctor Gu, you've created another miracle!"
This shout made the people around stop in their tracks and turn their heads to look.
The nurse's face flushed crimson and she waved her hands vigorously in the air.
"Yesterday, that pregnant woman with no heartbeat and no breathing was saved by you. It's amazing!"
The cleaning lady was mopping the floor nearby. When she heard the noise, she straightened up, leaned her mop against the wall, and gave a thumbs up. "Doctor Gu, you are a miracle doctor! We are so lucky to have you in our hospital!"
Gu Youran waved her hands quickly, a smile plastered on her face, but that smile revealed a hint of discomfort. "How can it be so exaggerated? I was just lucky enough to catch up."
But I was secretly wondering: Is this a bit too much to create miracles one after another? Will this bring me into trouble?
With this uneasiness in her heart, she hurried towards the Department of Neurology.
Several colleagues I met along the way also looked at me with admiration.
Others murmured, "Look, that's Dr. Gu. He's been in the spotlight lately."
Gu Youran pretended not to hear, but walked faster.
As soon as I entered the Department of Neurology, Director Liu came up to me, his eyes full of amazement, "Xiao Gu, your skills are really getting better and better!"
"You perform surgeries across multiple departments and frequently create miracles. I don't know how to praise you enough."
Gu Youran whispered back, "Director Liu, I didn't think much about it at the time. I was just thinking about how to save him. Maybe luck was on my side."
Although I said this, I felt very upset inside.
The constant attention was like a spotlight, making her feel a little uncomfortable.
The uneasiness in my heart grew stronger.
I just want to keep a low profile and get through this storm.
Just then, there was a knock on the door and Jiang Peilan pushed it open and walked in.
Her eyes were filled with gratitude. She walked over to Gu Youran, took her hand, and said, "Doctor Gu, I finally found you!"
"I just came from the maternity hospital. The situation is better than I thought. If you hadn't acted decisively that day, there would have been one corpse and two lives. I don't know how to thank you!"
