Chapter 180 I Don't Want to Pretend Anymore



Shen Shuyuan returned to the hospital's emergency room.

Shen Jinmo's emergency surgery was over, and she was sent back to the ICU.

The doctor said that Shen Jinmo's heart failure was severe and her will to live was weak. In addition, her wounds continued to get infected. If this continued, there would probably be no way to save her.

Shen Shuyuan arrived at the special care ward wearing a sterile gown. The old lady and Jiang Jingyu were already crying together by the bedside.

In particular, Jiang Jingyu cried out that she wanted Lu Zhiwei, who had stabbed Shen Jinmo in the heart, to die a horrible death.

Shen Shuyuan stood there blankly, not having a chance to get even a fraction closer to Shen Jinmo.

She was filled with remorse.

I hate myself for being so impulsive back then; why did I have to hurt the person I love?

He wouldn't ruin his body like this just because Lu Zhiwei is going to marry Ruan Jizhou.

For several days in a row, Shen Jinmo wore an oxygen mask and clung to life in the ICU, and did not wake up after the operation.

On the third day, the old lady chatted with the unconscious Shen Jinmo by her bedside, saying that she had run into Ruan Jizhou and Lu Zhiwei, who had gone to the cheongsam shop together to order wedding cheongsams.

Lu Zhiwei said she wanted a unique Chinese-style wedding.

The dress needs to be ordered now, so it will be ready for the wedding three months from now.

As she spoke, Shen Jinmo, lying on the hospital bed, moved her fingers.

Shen Shuyuan immediately noticed that Shen Jinmo was showing signs of waking up, and excitedly grabbed his wrist: "Brother, are you awake? Brother..."

The old lady looked at the electrocardiogram machine; his heartbeat was fluctuating wildly.

He hurriedly sent someone to fetch the doctor.

After a series of examinations, the doctor shook his head repeatedly: "Go and prepare for the worst. He doesn't have much time left. Try to fulfill any wishes he may have."

After saying that, the doctor left the ward.

Shen Shuyuan thought Shen Jinmo had recovered, but what she received was even more heartbreaking bad news.

Shen Jinmo, lying on the hospital bed, suddenly opened his eyes and mumbled something.

"Brother, tell me what you want? I'll do my best to help you achieve it." Shen Shuyuan leaned over the hospital bed and pressed her lips close to his.

Shen Jinmo's pale, gaunt face was devoid of any color. His thin lips moved slightly, and he managed to utter a few words with difficulty.

Shen Shuyuan was very close and could hear it clearly.

He wanted to see Lu Zhiwei one last time.

"Brother, she's happily preparing for her wedding with another man every day, yet you're still thinking about her?" Shen Shuyuan rebuked angrily.

She felt sorry for Shen Jinmo.

Who does Lu Zhiwei even belong to?

She was someone her brother couldn't let go of even on his deathbed.

With her eyes closed, Shen Jingmo weakly said, "I only want to see her. Nothing else."

"Okay, I'll go and get her right away."

Shen Shuyuan got up and left the ward, taking off her protective suit.

Shen Shuyuan drove away from the hospital and headed straight for the Lu Group.

Shen Shuyuan, who hadn't been to the company for several days, came today to submit her resignation to the Lu Group and to ask Lu Zhiwei to go to the hospital.

Even if she disliked Lu Zhiwei and hated her.

She also hoped to fulfill her brother's wish and let her see him.

Perhaps if he's in a better mood, his condition will improve.

He knocked on the door of the Lu Group office with his resignation letter in hand.

Lu Zhiwei was handling official business when she looked up and saw Shen Shuyuan. She didn't seem surprised.

The news that Shen Jinmo was on the verge of death in the hospital spread like wildfire throughout Yunzhou.

Shen Shuyuan handed over her resignation letter with both hands and placed it on the desk: "I'm here to resign, Mr. Lu."

To this day, she no longer wants to call her sister-in-law.

I don't even want to pretend anymore.

“Okay, let’s go hand over the work.” Lu Zhiwei readily agreed.

Shen Shuyuan, this cancerous tumor, will no longer stay in the Lu Group.

"There's one more thing I want to ask of you," Shen Shuyuan said bluntly.

Lu Zhiwei: "What is it? Speak."

"Go to the hospital and see my brother. He's dying. I'm begging you. No matter what grudges you had in the past, you were husband and wife after all," Shen Shuyuan pleaded sincerely.

Lu Zhiwei leaned back in her office chair, toying with her pen, and stared at Shen Shuyuan with a leisurely air: "His life or death is none of my business. There's no way I'm going to see him."

Shen Shuyuan clenched her fingers tightly. Faced with Lu Zhiwei's ruthlessness and indifference, she could not suppress the disgust in her heart, as if it was about to burst forth.

"What do you want in return for seeing him? I'll agree to anything you ask if you're willing."

Shen Shuyuan lowered her stance once again.

"Really? You'll agree to anything?" Lu Zhiwei smiled slightly.

Shen Shuyuan nodded.

"Then tell me, were you the one who killed my grandmother, the one who hurt my brother, and the one who did the half-face makeup?" Lu Zhiwei asked the same three questions as Shen Jinmo.

The office is equipped with surveillance cameras.

If she admits it herself.

She could immediately have the police arrest Shen Shuyuan.

Doesn't she love Shen Jinmo?

She also wanted to see if she was willing to trade her life for one of Shen Jinmo's wishes.

Shen Shuyuan burst into laughter: "Why do you and my brother both think I'm the murderer? I had no grudge against your grandmother, why would I kill her? And Jiang Zhan, why would I hurt him? What was my motive? Half-face makeup, I know who it is. It's my classmate Donnie. Didn't the police arrest him?"

Shen Shuyuan's answer was impeccable.

Lu Zhiwei sneered, "Shen Shuyuan, just keep pretending. I admit you're very good at disguising yourself. You fooled all of us at first, without revealing a single flaw. It's just a pity that your goal is too difficult to achieve. You want to get Shen Jinmo, but he will never like you. No matter how much you do, it will all be in vain."
