Chapter 106 Don't Be Fooled
Shen Muyun stood there in a daze, thinking about it. Going crazy at a funeral was the most outrageous task he had ever received. What should he do? It was really a headache.
He looked out the window, unable to think of any good solution for a long time, but then he heard Lu Huainan's voice.
"Brother Yun, where are you? Are you feeling unwell again?"
"I'm fine. I'm washing my hands and getting ready to come out."
Shen Muyun shook off the water droplets on his hands and looked at Lu Huainan who was waiting at the door. He was anxiously making a phone call.
"What? You said the Chengbei project was investigated. What do you mean?"
"Mr. Lu, there was a mistake in the project department. We were planning to make up for it this month, but they were reported first. The main reason is that their losses were too large, and the money they embezzled was too much. At this moment, we really can't find a way to fill the gap."
Lu Huainan paced back and forth. "As for the funding issue, I have a solution. Who's handling the project over there? They've got such a big problem, and the finance department hasn't responded?"
The person on the other side was a little embarrassed and stammered for a long time without saying anything.
"What's going on? I'm completely confused. Are you guys colluding to set me up?"
"Mr. Lu, that's not true. We were indeed unaware of this matter. An inspection team suddenly came today and discovered that the project department had embezzled public funds and owed a large sum of money. I'm afraid the project in the north of the city won't be able to proceed for a while."
Lu Huainan sighed, "I'll go over and deal with it later."
As soon as Lu Huainan hung up the phone, he saw Shen Muyun standing beside him.
"Brother Yun, I..."
Shen Muyun patted his shoulder and said, "It's okay. Your situation is also very urgent. I'm here, so you don't have to worry. Besides, life and death are determined by fate, and we can't stop it."
"Brother Yun, I'll go back. If you have any problems, you must tell me as soon as possible. Got it?"
Shen Muyun nodded and looked at Lu Huainan's back as he hurried away. It was as if he had just come to this world and was alone again.
When Shen Muyun arrived at the door of the ward, he clearly heard the words of the people inside.
"Liuyun, I still have high hopes for you. You have to do a good job on the overseas projects. My health is really not good. You and Muyun still can't get along well."
"Dad, it's better not to mention this matter. Mu Yun and I are competitors to begin with, and you are really biased, always siding with him."
Shen Wenjin glanced at the door, and Shen Muyun quickly dodged, fearing that he would be discovered.
"Liuyun, you know that I have been cultivating you diligently over the years, hoping that one day you can establish your own business."
"Dad, you just treat me as a pawn. On the surface, everyone dislikes Shen Muyun, and I am the proud child of heaven. You also deliberately say that I am the heir of the Shen family. This is all for him, a trick to draw the fire to me."
Shen Wenjin paused and didn't speak for a long time.
"You are biased. I was adopted. Even if Shen Muyun is noble, how noble can he be? He is just an illegitimate child. You still like him. No matter how hard I try, I am just his background."
"How is that possible, Liuyun? I believe you are capable, so I cultivate you, hoping that you can establish your own business. Because Muyun is not capable, I let him inherit the Shen family."
"Is that really the case? You're obviously biased, you've been biased since childhood. Obviously, the three of us were adopted at the same time, but you're most concerned about Shen Muyun and Lu Huainan. Dad, your heart has been biased for a long time, you know it yourself."
"Liuyun, isn't the funding I gave you enough? I think your overseas branch is doing very well. Wouldn't it be better if you could set up your own business and completely break away from the Shen Group?"
Shen Liuyun looked towards the door and caught a glimpse of Shen Muyun’s figure.
"Isn't it? It's really good. If we become competitors, I won't be able to see your body anymore. If I can't see you, I can do whatever I want. As for Shen Muyun, he is nothing. He can only be defeated by me."
"Liuyun! You! You can't say that. I hope you two brothers can support each other."
"Dad, you don't have to worry about this. My household registration has been moved out. I have no blood relationship with the Shen family. As for what happened later, don't blame me. This was all forced by you step by step."
"Chen Liuyun...cough cough cough..."
Shen Muyun heard the coughing and the sound of the alarm in the ward, and immediately felt something was wrong, so he rushed into the ward.
"Dad, what's wrong with you? Cheer up!"
After hearing the alarm, Qi Beichen immediately went to the ward.
"You two, get out of the way!"
Qi Beichen held the electrode pad in his hand, looked at the electrocardiogram that had turned into a straight line, and immediately began to rescue.
The moment the electrode touched the skin, a huge electric current was transmitted into Shen Wenjin's body. The originally smooth straight line began to have ripples, but only for a moment, and it became weaker and weaker.
Qi Beichen was unwilling to give up just like that. He pressed Shen Wenjin's chest hard, trying to use the most primitive method to arouse his desire to survive, but unfortunately, the electrocardiogram remained a straight line.
"My condolences, both of you."
Shen Muyun stood there in a daze. He had clearly heard Shen Wenjin talking just now, so how could it be so sudden?
"Lung adenocarcinoma is inherently dangerous. The cough just now caused the tumor to rupture. It could be said that in an instant, the patient was gone. So, there's no need to be too sad. The patient wasn't in much pain, and you did your best."
Shen Muyun glanced at Shen Liuyun next to him, punched him in the face, and then a barrage of fists fell on Shen Liuyun's body.
Qi Beichen didn't react for a while, and when he did, he immediately pulled Shen Muyun.
"Are you crazy?"
"That's right, I'm crazy. He's the culprit who killed my father. Don't think I don't know what you just said to my father. He became like this because he couldn't bear it under your provocation!"
Shen Liuyun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and laughed even more wildly, "So what, Shen Muyun, you still miscalculated. You have to know that I am the legal representative of the company now. You can't beat me. All this happened too quickly. I thought he could hold on for a while. It's really interesting."
Shen Muyun grabbed the collar of his clothes, "You are a heartless and cold-blooded animal. Your father cultivated you so much back then, what on earth did you do, Shen Liuyun!"
"Cultivate? Are you really stupid or just pretending to be crazy, Shen Muyun? All of that is for you, to remove the stumbling blocks on your path to inheriting the Shen family business. I already knew you were pretending to be crazy and stupid to create a persona."
Shen Muyun was slightly stunned, looking at Shen Liuyun. Could it be that he had known his identity for a long time and had never exposed it, or was it something else? In an instant, his brain buzzed.
"Have you two had enough of this? Uncle is still lying in bed, and you're just making a scene like this?"
Shen Muyun smiled and said, “Doctor Qi, this is our family matter, you don’t need to care so much.”
"Muyun, where is Huainan?"
"Don't look for him. There's a problem with the project in the north of the city, and he's very worried. Doctor Qi, I have to thank you for your hard work in treating him over the past few days, but everyone has their own destiny. This is true. I understand my father's problem, and I know this will happen sooner or later."
Shen Muyun lowered his head and touched Shen Wenjin's hand, which was still warm, as if he had fallen asleep and it seemed that he could wake up with just a call.
"Muyun, you two are brothers."
"Doctor Qi, I treat him as my brother, but he doesn't treat me as his brother. You have to know that we have no blood relationship at all. Now he has even separated his household registration. Can you imagine our relationship..."
"Let's take care of Dad's affairs. The obituary needs to be sent out now."
Shen Muyun sat beside the bed.
Shen Liuyun called his secretary and informed his family. After a while, the front pages of the media exploded with news of Shen Wenjin's death.
Shen Muyun looked at Shen Wenjin and had no feelings for this person. They didn't even communicate much. In the early days, Yizi felt that he was deliberately making things difficult for her, but now it seemed that there were other reasons.
"Brother, even if you want to do something to me, I think you have to wait until after father's funeral. Aren't you the most sensible person?"
"Chen Muyun, do you really think you can escape from my grasp?"
Shen Muyun looked at the online reviews and inexplicably saw a piece of news that Shen Wenjin was killed by Shen Muyun, followed by a bunch of comments.
"Isn't this obvious? Who can tolerate such unfilial descendants?"
"That's right. My brother is so outstanding, but it's a misfortune for our family to have such a brother. Even with such a big thing happening at home, he still has the mind to travel with that Lu family member. What an ungrateful person."
"That's right, they are birds of a feather."
"Brother, you should know why this happened. Besides, Father's allocation to the Shen family should be in the safe in the study. How about we go and take a look?"
"It's not impossible to wait until after the funeral, Shen Muyun. Are you so anxious because you're afraid that the Shen family will fall into my hands, or do you have some thoughts about joining forces with the Lu family? In fact, you should have been completely brainwashed by Lu Huainan by now."
"What, what do you mean by being brainwashed by Lu Huainan?"
"Chen Muyun, do you really think Lu Huainan likes you? Where did you learn your naivety? How about you teach me too?"
Shen Muyun was stunned. Something was wrong. It was indeed wrong. Why did Lu Huainan agree to his request so easily? And why did he happen to save him in time again and again? Could it be that he really fell into his trap?
"Muyun, you have to know that I am your brother. No matter how you put it, I am more reliable than an outsider. Don't be fooled by his appearance."
