Chapter 49 Investigation
"Bad...hobby?"
Shen Sangsang asked softly.
She didn't look at Shen Yuehuai, her eyes were only fixed on the food on the table, and the tone of her question sounded like gossip about someone she was only half-acquainted with.
Seeing that she seemed quite interested, Shen Yuehuai did not go into too much detail on this aspect, but only said in a calm voice: "Well, he did a lot of extraordinary things. As his uncle, I am also very surprised and sorry that he did such a thing." Shen Sangsang suddenly felt thirsty, so she reached out to pick up the kettle on the table and poured herself a cup of tea. She knew that the water was too full and almost overflowed.
Fortunately, she lifted the kettle in time and the water just reached the brim of the cup.
Shen Yuehuai sat beside her and watched her movements.
There was no trace of strangeness on Shen Sangsang's face. She held the water cup in her hand and took a sip of water.
The cold liquid slid through her esophagus, suppressing the heat in her heart.
So, her hand unconsciously clenched the cup in her hand. After a long while, she sighed, "What a pity."
"Do you feel sorry for it too?"
Shen Yuehuai had a calm expression as he observed her face.
Shen Sangsang whispered, “I’m not very familiar with him, but I’ve met him a few times, and I do feel it’s a pity.”
"Well, if he's still alive, he should get married in a few years."
As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out to her and took the cup of water from her hand: "Don't you think the water is hot?"
Shen Sangsang was confused for a few seconds, not knowing what he meant until she lowered her head and found that the cup of water that Shen Yuehuai had taken from her hand was steaming on the table.
Shen Yuehuai looked at her, and she was naturally stunned subconsciously.
She didn't realize the water was hot at all. When she drank it, she thought it was cold.
Just when she couldn't come back to her senses, Shen Yuehuai said to the servant: "Bring some ice."
Shortly after the servant answered, he brought the ice into the room.
Shen Yuehuai poured ice cubes into the kettle to neutralize the hot water. After a while, the steaming water cooled down instantly.
Then, he took another cup from the table, poured a cup of warm water into it, and handed it to her: "The temperature is just right, drink it."
At this moment, Shen Sangsang didn't dare to make any other moves. She just reached out and took the cup from him.
After a while, Abbot Wang came over and said that he had something to discuss with him.
Of course he didn't stay long, and got up and left the room.
Shen Sangsang, who was sitting at the table, held the cup in her hand and never let go. She was lost in thought.
Shen Yuehuai was a suspicious person by nature, and she didn't know whether her previous actions would make him suspicious.
At this moment, she felt a little uneasy.
…
When Shen Yuehuai walked out of the room, Xu Jie came to his side again and handed something to him: "Mr. Shen."
Shen Yuehuai stopped and looked at Xu Jie.
"This is Shi Yue's information."
Shen Yuehuai thought for a few seconds, then reached out and took the information from Xu Jie.
When he opened the brown paper bag and saw what was inside, there was no expression on his face.
Xu Jie asked, "Do you need me to arrange a meeting with Shi Yue? If I do, I'll know what the relationship between Miss Sangsang and Xiao Zhou was."
Shen Yuehuai listened to Xu Jie's words, but he did not respond.
Xu Jie didn't know what the person in front of him was thinking. He waited for a few seconds and asked again: "Mr. Shen, what do you think?"
Shen Yuehuai handed the bag of information back to him: "No need, there's nothing to check, let's leave it at that."
"Mr. Shen——"
Xu Jie wanted to say something.
But as soon as he said Mr. Shen, Shen Yuehuai interrupted him directly: "Why, are you questioning my words?"
Shen Yuehuai's eyes were indifferent and his expression was also indifferent as he asked back.
Xu Jie stopped talking about what she wanted to say.
Seeing that he was silent, Shen Yuehuai thought for a few seconds and then said, "Okay, go and do your thing."
Xu Jie has always suspected that her relationship with Chen Zhou is complicated, otherwise how could this series of suspicious things happen?
Let’s not discuss what her relationship with Chen Zhou is for now.
But the fact that she deliberately did this series of things was a dangerous signal.
But obviously there are some things that are not up to him to decide.
Xu Jie frowned for a long time, and he could only reply: "Okay, Mr. Shen."
When Shen Yuehuai heard his words, he turned and left.
Why didn't he continue investigating?
I just don't think it's necessary.
Although, he also knew that it was not that simple.
Was her insomnia and mental illness caused by his absence for two years, or was it caused by someone else?
He didn't want to delve into everything here.
In his opinion, he values the present more.
…
Shen Sangsang sat in the chair in the room for half an hour. Half an hour later, the doctor who treated her came in and stood at the door and called her, "Mrs. Shen."
Shen Sangsang regained consciousness and looked towards the doctor at the door.
The doctor walked in from outside and asked with a smile: "How was your rest last night?"
Shen Yuehuai took her illness very seriously, and the doctor followed up closely every day. In response to the doctor's question, she thought for a few seconds and said, "Last night, it seemed fine."
The doctor was relieved to hear that her sleep had improved: "Then we will continue with the next course of treatment today."
Shen Sangsang frowned faintly: "Well, thank you for your trouble."
Although she was talking to the doctor, her mind kept recalling her younger sister's words.
"Really? Gambling in their own casino, they lost most of the Shen family's assets to others. This is really outrageous. Now that he's dead, they have to re-investigate and stir up trouble again. In my opinion, this child's death is not a pity. It's entirely because your eldest brother didn't educate him well. Now the old lady is worried about their eldest wife, afraid that he will die too early, and his grave will be lonely and miserable. It's good over there, as if the old lady wanted to kill a dead person."
Xijie's words echoed in her ears like a magic sound.
She suddenly felt a severe headache and lowered her head.
The doctor noticed her abnormality and immediately rushed over: “Mrs. Shen, what’s wrong with you?!”
Shen Sangsang clenched her hands into fists.
She buried her face in her arms and thought painfully that Xiaozhou was not that kind of person.
He was never that kind of person.
Those people killed him and trampled on him.
