Chapter 319 Another secret is revealed
Jiang Shiyuan's mind raced like lightning.
She suddenly realized that all the symptoms Fu Chenzhou mentioned could be found in Lin Zhixin!
"Ah Yuan, is something on your mind?" Fu Chenzhou keenly noticed the change in her expression.
"Lin Zhixin has always had problems with chest tightness and angina. But she didn't have these problems before. It all started when she was scheming to get close to Xie Jinghuai."
Jiang Shiyuan's gaze was cold and distant. Now, she could speak of those deep-seated past wounds with detachment, indicating that she had completely let go. "For the past five years, Xie Jinghuai took her to see renowned doctors all over the world, trying to cure Lin Zhixin's illness, but none of the doctors could find anything wrong. Moreover, she was in great pain when she had an attack, but after two days, she would be back to normal as if nothing had happened, just dragging on like this..."
Fu Chenzhou smiled playfully, "You've made President Xie worry and feel uneasy, haven't you?"
"Actually, accompanying Lin Zhixin to the doctor was just an excuse. Xie Jinghuai still likes her. Otherwise, why would he take such meticulous care of a woman? Don't you agree?"
Fu Chenzhou's eyes darkened. "Still care?"
Jiang Shiyuan laughed heartily, like the bright moon in the sky, "If I still care about him even a little bit, I'm a dog."
The man's expression turned serious. "You can't be a dog."
Jiang Shiyuan blinked innocently, "Why?"
Fu Chenzhou lowered his eyes and muttered to himself:
"There is reproductive isolation."
Jiang Shiyuan blushed instantly: "…………"
Even the most upright man can't help but talk dirty in front of his loved one; it's an irresistible physiological attraction.
Jiang Shiyuan steered the conversation back to the main point, "So, you mean that Lin Zhixin's fluctuating health might be related to the medication she's been taking?"
Fu Chenzhou nodded slightly, "Besides that, I can't think of any other reason, but to find out the specifics, we need to find a way to take her blood sample and test it."
Jiang Shiyuan suddenly realized, "In other words, she has been taking this drug for at least five years! Every medicine has its side effects. She would do something as destructive as ruining her own body just to win Xie Jinghuai's heart?"
"They're really going all out."
She wasn't being overly compassionate; she was genuinely moved.
No wonder she couldn't beat Lin Zhixin; Lin Zhixin was just heartbroken, while Lin Zhixin was willing to risk her life to fight for her, all for the sake of this heartless and ungrateful man.
Honestly, she didn't lose badly.
Moreover, she also wanted to thank Lin Zhixin. If Lin Zhixin hadn't interfered in their marriage, she might never have woken up from her romantic obsession.
Fu Chenzhou smiled knowingly, "Taking this kind of banned drug for five whole years, even an iron body probably couldn't withstand it."
If she suffers any long-term health problems as a result, wouldn't you say, in a way, that's retribution for Ms. Lin?
Jiang Shiyuan laughed it off, saying, "She brought this upon herself and deserves to die."
"Well said."
Fu Chenzhou stood up, then bent down again and picked up the little woman horizontally.
"Hey? What are you doing?!" Jiang Shiyuan hurriedly grabbed his collar, her beautiful eyes wide open, like crystal clear black grapes.
Fu Chenzhou said matter-of-factly, "Of course I want you to rest. You can't keep pushing yourself."
Jiang Shiyuan panicked for a moment, "Me...myself?"
The man chuckled softly, his eyebrows slightly raised. "What? Want to come with me?"
Jiang Shiyuan bit her lip tightly.
That damn stupid mouth, that's not what you meant!
"Okay, I was just kidding."
Fu Chenzhou hugged the person in his arms tightly and walked out with brisk steps, but he couldn't suppress the happy smile on his lips. "However, if Aunt Jiang needs anything, I'm available anytime."
Jiang Shiyuan buried her blushing face in his chest, not daring to utter a single word.
...
The parking lot outside the hospital building was deserted in the early hours of the morning.
The Rolls-Royce came to a silent stop in the still night.
The car window slowly rolled down, and a long, slender hand with distinct knuckles reached out, flicking a cigarette butt between its fingers.
At the same time, Xie Jinghuai's handsome face also appeared dejected and pale.
The night wind was harsh and cold, but it couldn't chill his heart at that moment.
Now, the person accompanying Jiang Shiyuan is Fu Chenzhou, who is clearly the one she kicked out.
In just three to five months, he didn't even have the right to show her any concern.
How did things gradually turn out this way between them...?
At this moment, Han Xu knocked on the car door. Xie Jinghuai snapped out of his reverie, calmed down, took two more deep drags on his cigarette, and stubbed it out in the ashtray.
"Mr. Xie, these past few days, I've had my subordinates search all over Beijing, every hospital, big and small, but there's no record of your wife receiving a blood transfusion."
Han Xu's tone was tinged with helplessness, "Could it be that your wife donated blood in another city? If so, it will be difficult to investigate."
Xie Jinghuai pondered for a moment, then asked in a low voice:
"What about the Third Affiliated Hospital of Beijing-Tongzhou? It's not there either?"
Han Xu shook his head. "The first day we checked these major hospitals, and they didn't have it."
Xie Jinghuai leaned back, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
What is he inexplicably expecting, doubting, or agonizing about?
His savior was clearly Lin Zhixin. But why did he also have a vague feeling that his connection with Jiang Shiyuan had begun much earlier?
When he learned that Jiang Shiyuan had undergone numerous blood transfusions, he inexplicably connected it to his own car accident.
It seems... he was just overthinking it.
"What about the other thing? How's the investigation going?" Xie Jinghuai closed his eyes wearily. He was exhausted, but he couldn't fall asleep at all.
"A criminal disguised himself as a medical worker and broke into Ms. Su's ward, attempting to kill her, but was saved by Dr. Shen who arrived in time. The criminal is currently being questioned at the police station, but he is very stubborn and refuses to say anything."
"Stubborn? How stubborn can you be?"
Xie Jinghuai half-closed his narrow eyes, his gaze as thin as ice. "Doesn't he have a wife and children? Doesn't he have parents? If we put a knife to the throat of any one of these people, let's see if he's still so stubborn."
Han Xu inwardly exclaimed "Wow!", but immediately responded aloud:
"Yes, Mr. Xie, I know what to do."

After giving his statement and cooperating with the police investigation, Shen Min did not leave. Instead, he and Ye Yu waited at the police station until the next morning, wanting to see the outcome of the interrogation.
However, the police interrogated the criminal all night, but he remained stubborn, only saying that he was a psychopath who wanted to retaliate against society, and that no one was behind him.
"Damn it! That's pure bullshit!"
Shen Min slammed his fist into the wall. Remembering how the thug had almost taken Su Xi'er's life, he felt an urge to rush in and stab him to death. "A psychopath, huh? Believe me, I'm even more of a psychopath than him! He'd better stay in jail for the rest of his life. And if he ever gets out, I'll make sure he suffers!"
Ye Yu, dressed in a suit and tie, stood beside him, patting him on the shoulder with a wry smile:
“Being in prison doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll have a better time.”
Shen Min gritted his teeth, "I'm so unwilling to accept that I can't find the mastermind behind this!"
At that moment, a police officer walked out of the interrogation room looking exhausted, and the two men immediately went to greet him.
Ye Yu: "Did he say it?"
The police officer shook his head in annoyance. "He won't say, which shows that the person behind him is someone of extraordinary status and position. He doesn't dare to give a word."
Also, he keeps insisting on seeing a lawyer, and he won't say a word until his lawyer arrives.
"This kind of person doesn't even deserve a lawyer? He should go eat shit!" Shen Min, who came from a scholarly family, couldn't hold back any longer and started swearing.
"Officer, I am Liang Jie's lawyer."
A familiar voice rang out, and Ye Yu and Shen Min turned around simultaneously, their pupils dizzy—
Isn't this... Han Xu, Xie Jinghuai's secretary?!
How did he suddenly become a lawyer? Was it a genetic mutation?
"Are you lawyer Liang Jie?" the police officer asked routinely.
Han Xu, impeccably dressed in a suit and carrying a black briefcase, looked quite professional. "Where is my client?"
"This way, please follow me."
Han Xu left with the police officer.
From beginning to end, he didn't even glance at the two people, as if he didn't know them at all.
Ye Yu and Shen Min looked at each other, and said in unison:
"You acted so convincingly."
In the interrogation room, only the man named Liang Jie and Han Xu were present. Han Xu, as the lawyer, requested to speak with him alone.
The two looked at each other, and Han Xu didn't rush to speak, but instead looked at him with a smile.
The man looked around, remaining silent for a long time.
“Liang Jie, I know you took this job because you were desperate and had nowhere else to turn.”
After Han Xu put on the glasses to disguise his identity, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and his voice was deep and oppressive, "But even if you don't think about yourself, you should at least think about your elderly mother who is far away in the nursing home in Haicheng."
You lost your father at such a young age. Don't you want to lose your mother when you're middle-aged?
"Who...who are you?!"
Liang Jie was almost out of control, but dared not shout, his whole body trembling, "You're not...who are you?!"
"I am Xie Jinghuai's chief secretary and the president of the Xie Group."
Han Xu casually crossed his legs, a half-smile on his face, "If President Xie wants to investigate you, it's as easy as pie."
Liang Jie shuddered violently!
The Xie family… they were a powerful figure he couldn't afford to offend! More importantly, they had even traced their investigation back to his mother! His mother was his only weakness, and he absolutely could not allow anyone to harm her!
Han Xu noticed that his expression had softened, and his gaze darkened:
"If you reveal who is behind this, Mr. Xie will not only not help you reduce your sentence, but will also guarantee your mother's personal safety."
If you insist on going down this dark path and working for unworthy people... I'm sorry, you know the power of the Xie family. Not only will you become a pawn, a crushed piece, but those who orchestrated your actions will also suffer.
We want to find out who it is; it's only a matter of time. But for you, you only have one chance.
"I'll talk...I'll talk!"
Liang Jie slumped into his chair, his mental defenses completely breached by Han Xu. "The person who bribed me... is surnamed Ge. I don't know her name, I only know... some people call her Secretary Ge."
