Chapter 107 Almost?
Shen Li was taken aback, thinking of the time in Lancheng when Lu Yanchuan had an accident, she thought Lu Yanchuan was seriously injured.
I was so frightened, it was like a stress reaction, and I developed a high fever as soon as I got back to the hotel.
Shen Li replied: [I remember]
Lu Yanchuan: [At that time, you were delirious with fever, and you were still murmuring, 'Mom, I'm scared.']
Shen Li was stunned when she saw the message; she hadn't expected it at all.
Lu Yanchuan's message came through again very quickly.
Therefore, some memories may not be so harmless.
I don't want you to get hurt.
If he could, Lu Yanchuan would even like to say those words to her in person.
He didn't want Shen Li to get hurt.
Shen Li stared at the content on the screen for a long time.
Thinking back to the man I saw in the ICU, the sharp scalpels and scissors that made deep incisions in his chest and ribs, reaching his internal organs.
So that the tube could be inserted into his chest cavity, from which dark red blood could be continuously drained.
He gasps for breath after every sentence he speaks; even breathing is a painful ordeal.
Even though he was in this state, he was still typing away on his phone to send her a message, word by word.
Shen Li blinked and slowly tapped the screen to reply to him.
The entire medical check-up didn't take much time because we used the VIP channel of the international department.
After finishing, I took Tang Yao's car back.
As the car drove into the Yashu residential area, Shen Li had a long-lost feeling.
Seeing that the plants she planted in the yard were all thriving and growing well, I realized they were all doing quite well.
Shen Li's mood improved considerably.
The refrigerator was full of food.
Shen Li thought for a moment, then took out some meat to thaw and some vegetables to soak.
Knead the dough again and let it rest.
She walked out of the house and saw Tang Yao standing outside.
"Where are you going? I'll go with you," Tang Yao said.
Shen Li: "Do you know where Lu Yanchuan said he built a kiln in the villa?"
Tang Yao nodded and led her there.
It's not far away, just in another house in the villa.
I noticed that some construction materials were still piled up in the yard and hadn't been cleared away.
Some spaces inside the house are not yet fully decorated, but the kiln is almost complete.
There's also the workshop, with three long tables in a row. Two are suitable for her to draw and refine the shapes, and the other is a machine for putting the potter's wheel on.
Shen Li reached out and touched the brand-new potter's wheel.
With a workshop and electric kiln like this, there shouldn't be any problems using them.
Thinking of how Lu Yanchuan was panting heavily when he spoke, he still remembered to ask her to come back to the villa...
After thinking it over, Shen Li silently made a decision: to cancel the lease on the rented studio.
While she was cooking, Lu Yanchuan didn't send any more messages.
I don't know if it was because I didn't want to disturb her while she was cooking, or if she had fallen asleep?
Judging from the way he was in pain, he didn't seem like someone who could fall asleep easily.
...
In the hospital room, Lu Yanchuan listened to Zhou Yan's voice coming from his phone.
"The wife's medical examination report, which was available today, has already been received."
Zhou Yan knew that Lu Yanchuan was having difficulty speaking, so she didn't wait for his response and continued talking.
"I will send you the reports right away."
As Zhou Yan spoke, he brought up another matter, "The investigation into this accident has been basically completed. It was indeed arranged by Shen Wenzhong, and he hired the people."
“There was almost no one else involved in the whole process.”
Zhou Yan originally thought that Lu Yanchuan was just listening and would give him instructions via text message later.
But unexpectedly, when he got to this point...
Suddenly, a voice so soft it was almost imperceptible was heard; it was Lu Yanchuan's voice.
"……almost?"
Zhou Yan was startled. "President Lu, you can speak now? Perhaps you shouldn't force yourself. Just send me a message later."
Lu Yanchuan paused for a moment, then said very softly, "...almost?"
“Yes, almost,” Zhou Yan quickly replied. “Shen Wenzhong doesn’t have much money and can’t afford to hire someone to kill him.”
“I had someone check his bank statements. Several of the incoming transactions were done quite discreetly. After tracing them, it can be basically determined that they were Lu Jikang’s doing.”
Lu Jikang is Lu Yanchuan's second uncle. He has a son and a daughter, Lu Mingyou and Lu Mingheng.
He is also the eldest son of the current matriarch of the Lu family, and he has never had a particularly assertive personality.
So compared to the more radical family of Third Uncle Lu Jiren.
It's actually quite unexpected that they would do something like this.
But upon closer reflection, it seems not so difficult to understand.
If Old Master Lu hadn't married a woman in his hometown before marrying his current wife in the city...
Lu Jikang should be the eldest son.
The eldest son of the Lu family, who should theoretically receive preferential treatment in terms of family resources.
However, because of Grandpa Lu's behavior of wanting more while eating what was in his bowl.
His mother was clearly his legal wife, but somehow she became his concubine.
He was no longer the eldest son of the Lu family.
Thus, all the family resources, under the father's will, were tilted towards Lu Yanchuan's father, Lu Heng.
Lu Jikang was not the one with good qualifications.
Therefore, Lu Heng, as the eldest son, received preferential treatment from family resources. Lu Jiren, the clever younger son, also received his father's support.
Only he, the second son... could only be seen as the good-natured, easy-going person in everyone's eyes.
He was used to being a nice guy, so people seemed to think he had no temper.
That's why it was unexpected to learn that he had done such a thing.
But upon closer reflection, his feeling of imbalance is not without reason.
Lu Yanchuan leaned back on the bed, breathing heavily in pain.
Cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
He took deep breaths, thinking about what Zhou Yan had said on the phone earlier.
A moment later, Lu Yanchuan tapped lightly on the screen to send a message to Zhou Yan.
[Don't do anything yet. Keep all the evidence safe. Don't contact Lu Jikang proactively. The initiative is in my hands now. Let him come to me to talk.]
After sending the message, Lu Yanchuan pondered for a moment and then sent another one.
Keep a close eye on Shen Wenzhong; don't let Lu Jikang silence him. After all, he's Shen Li's father.
It's not that we won't deal with it, it's just that we need to see how to handle it specifically.
It's highly likely that Shen Wenzhong is carrying more than just this car accident case.
Zhou Yan replied, "I understand. Don't worry, I'll take care of it."
Lu Yanchuan didn't reply. He tapped the screen, looking at Shen Li's medical examination report.
As he looked at it, his brows furrowed tightly.
He tapped rapidly on the screen, sending a message to Zhou Yan.
What's going on with Shen Li's medical examination report?
The woman's health was worse than he had imagined.
Wasn't she a former athlete? How come her health is so poor if she was an athlete? Shouldn't she be in excellent physical condition?
Zhou Yan quickly replied, "I'll go find the doctor to interpret the report and then get back to you."
