"Hospital?"
Zhou Yanci thought she had misheard.
The person on the other end of the phone said, "Yes, Miss Shang was attacked and injured and is being treated in the hospital. She's not in a good mental state right now and keeps wanting to see you. Could you please come over?"
Zhou Yanci felt a slight tremor in her heart, hung up the phone, and stood up.
"Xiao Dong, prepare the car!"
...
Fifteen minutes later, Zhou Yanci arrived at the hospital by car.
Ji Yu, having received the news, also rushed over.
They were all stunned when they entered the ward.
Shang Wu sat on the hospital bed, her hair disheveled and her eyes red and swollen.
Her left arm was wrapped in gauze, and there was a noticeable bloodstain on the side of her face. The nurse was sitting by the bed applying medicine to her.
Zhou Yanci's breathing faltered slightly: "Awu, are you alright?"
He walked over and saw the injury on Shang Wu's face, then clenched his fist tightly.
In the entire city of Lin, no one dared to confront Shang Wu.
Everyone knows that Shang Wu is his fiancée and someone he protects. To go against Shang Wu is to go against his Chengzhou Group.
At this moment, he was angry that someone had hurt Shang Wu, and even angrier that his authority had been challenged.
Zhou Yanci leaned down and grasped Shang Wu's hand: "Who did this! I'll help you get revenge."
Shang Wu burst into tears, her voice choked with sobs, "It was Li Chengzhang. He knew about my decision to make you withdraw your investment and held a grudge. He sent someone to ambush me while I was out of the company on business."
She turned her head so that Zhou Yanci could see the injury on her cheek.
"He said he would ruin my face so I wouldn't be able to marry into the Zhou family."
The nurse sighed and helped her wipe away the blood seeping from the wound.
"A five-centimeter wound is already quite deep. If it's not properly cared for, it will leave a scar. We live in a society governed by law. How could such a heinous thing happen!"
The nurse's words of protest were like a slap in the face to Zhou Yanci.
He slowly stood up, looking at Shang Wu's broken and fragile appearance, his face growing increasingly gloomy and dark.
Ji Yu's eyes flickered, and she took a step forward.
"Was it really Li Chengzhang who did it? Do you have any evidence?"
A single sentence reminded Zhou Yanci.
When he set up the scheme to get Li Chengzhang to cooperate in the charade and harm Shang Yunshen, he said that Shang Wu was not allowed to touch a single hair on his head.
Li Chengzhang kept this in mind, knowing that no matter what, Shang Wu couldn't be touched without his permission.
Now that he has only withdrawn his investment once, Li Chengzhang doesn't even take his words seriously?
A hint of doubt appeared in Zhou Yanci's eyes.
“Awu, if it was someone else who did it, just say so. Don’t pin it on Li Chengzhang. I know you hate him. I’m withdrawing my investment now, aren’t I? The wronged should be held accountable.”
Shang Wu looked up in shock, saying incredulously, "I'm injured like this, and you still suspect that I'm deliberately slandering Li Chengzhang?"
"No, I just want to find the real killer and take revenge." Zhou Yanci held her hand tightly and gently comforted her, "Don't get agitated, Awu. Are you sure the other party was really sent by Li Chengzhang?"
Shang Wu stared at him silently, a hint of disappointment gradually creeping into her eyes.
She wiped away her tears, silently picked up her phone, and pulled up the call recording.
"All these years, right under your nose, haven't we still made money from our collaborations?"
The "we" that Li Chengzhang refers to is clearly him and Zhou Yanci.
Zhou Yanci paused abruptly, then slowly frowned.
In the recording, Li Chengzhang continued to make threats.
"You just wait, I'm going to make you suffer!"
Shang Wu looked up, and asked weakly, "Can you prove this?"
Zhou Yanci was speechless. She turned her head and gave Ji Yu a warning look, as if blaming her for talking too much earlier, which was why she questioned Shang Wu.
Ji Yu swallowed hard, feeling somewhat at a loss.
“Alright, I understand now. It was Li Chengzhang. He did everything.” Zhou Yanci stood up, her expression cold and stern. “I will seek justice for you.”
Shang Wu burst into tears: "My face might be scarred. It's the promotional period for the limited new products. I don't know how I can appear on camera looking like this. He's not only hurting me, but also the interests of the jewelry department."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Zhou Yanci's expression change.
She knew that her own face was nothing; only by using the company's revenue, which Zhou Yanci cared about most, could she successfully incite hatred.
Zhou Yanci nodded with a cold laugh.
"Good, Li Chengzhang is truly commendable!"
He glanced at Xiao Dong behind him and nodded slightly.
Xiao Dong understood immediately and quietly left.
A dark glint flashed in Shang Wu's eyes: "Where is Xiao Dong going?"
"I'll seek justice for you, so don't worry about this. Just rest." Zhou Yanci pulled the blanket up for her.
Shang Wu immediately hooked her fingers around his and gently held them in her palm: "If I were disfigured, would you be disgusted?"
"No, in my eyes, you are the most beautiful no matter what. I'm here with you today." Zhou Yanci sat down in the nurse's seat and said sweet words with deep affection.
Ji Yu was about to throw up, so she made an excuse to bring Shang Wu some food and then slipped away.
Shang Wu's phone, which was on the table, vibrated twice.
Her eyes flickered: "Yanci, I'm in a bad mood right now and want to be alone. I'm already at ease knowing you've helped me deal with Li Chengzhang. You can go back now."
“I’m not going anywhere, I’ll stay here with you.” Zhou Yanci insisted on staying.
Shang Wu looked sad: "I really want to be alone for a while. My mind is a mess right now."
Zhou Yanci had no choice but to get up and sigh.
"Okay, then you should get some rest."
He pushed open the ward door and turned to leave.
After he left, Shang Wu's eyes turned cold, and she slowly picked up her phone.
On her alternate account, the reporter who had last contacted her to take photos of Zhou Yanci and Shen Mian at the Changqing Hotel sent her a text message.
