They dared not refuse to fight.
The housekeeper answered the phone. Mrs. Shen has suffered a stroke, heart problems, and liver issues; she is currently undergoing emergency treatment.
Judging from the situation, the outlook doesn't seem very optimistic.
Jian Yu was very anxious, fearing that Old Madam Shen might pass away.
Inform Lu Jiao that he must persuade Shi Baozhu as soon as possible.
Lu Jiao was also having a headache over Shi Baozhu's side. She refused to see anyone, not even her own child.
Unable to see Shi Baozhu, Lu Jiao decided to target Shi Baozhu's son.
Half an hour later, a large bouquet of carnations was delivered to Shi Baozhu's son's company.
The receptionist saw the card on the bouquet and, without waiting any longer, delivered it to his office.
This was the first time Shi Feilong had received carnations. What surprised him was not the flowers, but the card on them.
The person who delivered the flowers was her maternal grandmother.
Did the florist specify when the order was placed?
"A week ago."
My grandmother was still alive a week ago.
Shi Feilong's eyes welled up with tears, and he instructed his assistant to arrange the flowers.
The assistant opened the bouquet and found a gift box inside.
Quickly give it to Shi Feilong.
Shi Feilong opened it and found a USB drive inside.
I opened it out of curiosity and found it was a recording.
Thinking it was his grandmother's last words, Shi Feilong couldn't wait to open it.
Without any warning, the words, "You are indeed not my child," flew straight into my ear.
Shi Feilong was visibly taken aback, “…”
As the aged voice continued speaking, Shi Feilong could no longer contain his excitement.
Is her mother the heir to the Shen family conglomerate?
Is Shen Ding a cuckoo who usurped someone else's place?
Shi Feilong took the USB drive and went to find Shi Baozhu; he had to get to the bottom of this.
Lu Jiao kept an eye on Shi Feilong's driver, and when he saw his car come out, he quickly followed behind.
Shi Baozhu was still immersed in the grief of losing her mother. Holding a photo of her adoptive mother, she sat on the hospital bed and shed tears.
When Shi Feilong came in, her eyelids were already swollen as high as walnuts.
"Mom! Why are you crying again? The doctor said you have an allergic reaction around your eyes. You can't cry anymore, or your eyes will have problems."
Shi Baozhu put down the photo, got out of bed, and went to the bathroom to wash her face.
Shi Feilong poured her a glass of water, and after she calmed down a bit, he asked, "Mom, Grandma is actually your adoptive mother, right?"
Shi Baozhu, “…”
He shook his head, but couldn't bring himself to say a word in denial.
Shi Feilong continued, "Actually, you are the biological daughter of Old Madam Shen of the Shen Group, and the rightful heir to the Shen Group, right?"
Shi Baozhu shook her head.
"Old Mrs. Shen had two children. Her second son has passed away, leaving only her eldest son, Shen Ding. If there is a problem with your and Shen Ding's identities, then you are the only heir, and Shen Ding is just an imposter."
Shi Baozhu opened her mouth, but ultimately said nothing.
"Mom, shall we go find Grandma Shen?"
Shi Baozhu managed to utter a single word, "No..."
"Why?"
Shi Feilong was puzzled.
“I was personally given to your maternal grandparents by Grandpa Shen. Grandma Shen probably knows that they don’t want me, so there’s no use in me going back.”
Shi Feilong shook his head, "Grandma Shen probably doesn't know."
Shi Baozhu continued to shake her head.
Shi Feilong said, “I received a recording from my grandmother. In it, she said that Shen Ding was an illegitimate child whose mother died in childbirth. Afterwards, he was secretly switched by Old Master Shen with his first wife. In order not to arouse the suspicion of his first wife, he secretly gave away the daughter born to his first wife. In order to fight for the inheritance, Shen Ding also killed his first wife’s second child, who is your own brother.”
"ah???"
Shi Baozhu gaped in shock, "Younger brother?"
"right."
"Was he killed by Shen Ding?"
Shi Feilong nodded, "Yes, this matter is not very secret, and there have been rumors circulating. Old Madam Shen thought that Shen Ding was also her child, and that she loved both of them equally. She had no choice but to move to her second son's former estate alone, in order to stay away from Shen Ding."
Shi Baozhu's voice trembled, "Really?"
"It can't be wrong. I've already seen photos of Grandma Shen when she was young, and you two look almost exactly alike."
Shi Baozhu took out a photograph from under her pillow; it was of Old Mrs. Shen when she was young.
"Mom, you see, this picture is exactly the same as your sitting posture and smile when you graduated from college."
"They are the same."
Shi Baozhu had been watching for several days, and she had even remembered that the two had a few different freckles on their faces.
"Mom, let's go find Grandma Shen! Let's tell her the truth, otherwise she'll have to keep facing the enemy who killed her child."
Shi Baozhu: "Shen Ding really killed..."
Shi Feilong nodded, "I've heard this rumor before, but I didn't pay attention to it then."
Shi Baozhu's vision blurred with tears. "Chen Ding?"
“Let’s go find Old Mrs. Shen and find out the truth. If Shen Ding really has taken over the place, we must drive him away.”
Shi Feilong stared at Shi Baozhu, "It's also for my little uncle's sake."
"Uncle?"
"Isn't your younger brother my uncle?"
Shi Feilong knew how to say something that would touch Shi Baozhu's heart.
Shi Baozhu cares most about her family and friends. If she really is Old Mrs. Shen's biological daughter, she may not acknowledge her biological parents, but she will definitely not fail to seek justice for her younger brother.
Shi Feilong said, "If he was murdered, we, as his family, must help him seek justice."
Shi Baozhu nodded, "Yes."
Shi Feilong laughed, "Then let's go now!"
Shi Baozhu said, "Okay."
Reach out your hand.
Shi Feilong helped her up by the arm, but as soon as he let go, Shi Baozhu fell to the ground.
Shi Feilong was startled and quickly ran out to call the doctor.
Shi Baozhu was sent to the emergency room for treatment.
It took more than an hour to get out.
Shi Baozhu lay on the hospital bed, still very agitated. "Feilong, take a few strands of my hair to the Shen family and find...find Old Madam Shen to do a paternity test."
Shi Feilong wanted to wait for Shi Baozhu to go together.
Based on Shi Baozhu's appearance alone, even without a paternity test, Old Mrs. Shen would be almost certain of the truth.
"Go home and get my old photos, especially the ones from when I was three years old, the ones with my grandparents, my grandfather, and Grandpa Shen. I can't wait any longer, you have to help me find out."
Shi Feilong was also anxious. Shi Baozhu's health was indeed not suitable for traveling. After considering it, Shi Feilong took the photo album and flew to the Shen family's old house.
Jian Yu was with Grandma Hua in the hospital's VIP lounge when he received a call from Lu Jiao and rushed out.
Outside the hospital gate, they stopped Shi Feilong, who was rushing in.
"Grandma Shen is currently in a coma in the ICU. If you go in like this, you will bring disaster upon yourself."
Shi Feilong had also heard of Shen Ding's fearsome reputation, especially since Old Master Shen knew the truth. Before Old Madam Shen regained consciousness, he could not reveal the slightest clue.
He was more curious about Jian Yu than he was about Jian Yu. "Who are you?"
“My name is Linda. I was there when your grandmother told your mother about her background. I am now a gardener at the manor where Mrs. Shen lives.”
Shi Feilong's eyes lit up. "Then you can help me, right? Can you get me a few strands of Old Mrs. Shen's hair?"
