Chapter 26



When Zhang Yazhi heard the doctor say this, her face immediately became nervous: "Is there any problem?"

"Don't be nervous. From the current situation, there is no problem. However, his reaction to the drug was too strong. That's why I wanted to ask him about his abnormal behavior." The doctor showed him the report details. "Chen Qizhao is not allergic to drugs, and there are no related pathological changes in his brain. In addition, he has no history of genetic diseases. Such a strong reaction is most likely due to his physical condition. If he has psychological problems, they will be stimulated and magnified."

After hearing this, Zhang Yazhi roughly understood the purpose of the doctor's inquiry.

She thought about it and briefly explained Chen Qizhao's personality to the doctor. "But his mood swings have been less frequent recently. He used to quarrel with his family frequently, but now he has quarreled less frequently."

"Emotional changes may also be part of the reason for his personality changes. As a family member, you should pay more attention to this problem." The doctor was very patient. "But it may also be our illusion. Even if he is not allergic, the side effects of people who are exposed to this drug for the first time vary. I would like to remind you of this. Pay more attention to his psychological changes in the next few weeks."

He added, "But don't be too nervous. I'm just analyzing the possibilities for you."

Zhang Yazhi said thank you, and an hour had passed when she returned to the ward.

When she arrived, Chen Qizhao had already fallen asleep. Shen Yuhuai hadn't left yet, but was sitting on a chair next to the bed, looking at his phone, and only put it away when he saw her come in. "Aunt Zhang, is everything settled?"

"Well, thank you for your help and for keeping you busy for so long." Zhang Yazhi smiled at him.

Shen Yuhuai nodded: "He just fell asleep not long ago, and the nurse just changed the drip."

Zhang Yazhi asked, "Yu Huai, you and Qi Zhao have a good relationship, right?"

Shen Yuhuai was originally planning to give Zhang Yazhi a seat, but when he heard this, his expression paused: “Fortunately, I have met him several times at school.”

Zhang Yazhi asked again: "Does he usually talk about what's going on at home, or how he behaves when he's out?"

Shen Yuhuai didn’t understand why Zhang Yazhi suddenly asked this, but he still answered: “Qizhao is very well behaved.”

"Okay." Zhang Yazhi caught a glimpse of the child sleeping on the hospital bed and felt a little uncomfortable. She hoped that it was just her illusion.

"I'll just watch from now on. If you have something to do, go do it first."

Chen Qizhao was hospitalized for a few days, and the results of the investigation into the drugging at the charity gala were also announced. Lin Shizhong went to apologize on the same day, solemnly expressed his apologies to the Chen family, and also brought the results of the investigation from that side. The waiter was hired to cause trouble at the venue, but in the end no one was able to reveal who was behind the incident. However, from this person's transaction records and bank account information, it was found that he was related to a company called "Yicheng", but there was no direct evidence.

Chen Qizhao happened to be in the ward and heard Lin Shizhong's words. As expected, they were very similar to what he had guessed and he was not surprised at all. The lack of direct evidence means that the only person who can be dealt with in the end is the person who drugged the patient, and other speculations without evidence cannot represent additional results.

It’s just that Lin Shizhong took this matter around in a big circle and packaged it before releasing it.

Lin Shizhong sighed and continued, "Yicheng recently had some conflicts with one of my companies. The charity party was organized by the Lin family, and they were very likely trying to hire someone to cause trouble at the charity venue. You also know that there were so many people at the venue at that time. If something went wrong, where would our Lin family's face be. That person explained a little bit, saying that he had his eyes on Xiao Zhao's table at the time, saying that he saw that this group of rich second-generations drank heavily, and if anyone was caught causing trouble, his mission would be accomplished."

He smiled bitterly and said, "There are still many people from that side at the party. If we mess up and the news gets out, our subsequent application procedures will be strictly reviewed. This matter is our problem after all. It would be fine if it was just me, but this happened... Xiao Zhao is in trouble."

This explanation didn't say much on the surface, but in fact it meant that Yicheng wanted to mess up Lin Shizhong's business by drugging him, and Chen Qizhao was just accidentally affected.

"Yicheng...?" Chen Jianhong frowned.

Seeing Chen Jianhong's hesitation, Jiang Yuze whispered in Chen Jianhong's ear: "Mr. Chen, Yicheng has had a project conflict with us recently. We have had several disputes in Y City over bidding."

After hearing this, Chen Jianhong said to Lin Shizhong, "I'm afraid this matter is not just directed at you. We have had conflicts with Yicheng recently. It is very likely that the other party is really targeting Qizhao. We can use this opportunity to kill two birds with one stone."

Lin Shizhong looked surprised, as if he was puzzled: "...What do you mean?"

Chen Qizhao sat on the hospital bed, looking coldly at Lin Shizhong and Jiang Yuze performing a duet in front of him. It's no wonder that Chen Jianhong didn't suspect anything. Lin Shizhong took a big detour and put the entire thing on him. Then, through Jiang Yuze's reminder, he directly shifted the conflict to Chen and Yicheng, using Chen to get rid of his archenemy Yicheng, and thus reaping the benefits.

This was indeed Lin Shizhong's method, and this incident actually happened in his previous life.

Yicheng is not a local capital of S City, but of Y City. Chen had a conflict with Yicheng in the market when a certain project was being expanded. In fact, the conflict was not that big and could be resolved through negotiation. However, there were more conflicts between Yicheng and Lin, and many market contradictions broke out, and it could be said that there was basically no way to reach an agreement... I don’t know what happened in the previous life, but Chen was also involved in this competition. In the end, both sides could be said to have suffered losses. Even though Chen had the upper hand, it also suffered a lot.

This was also one of the reasons that led to Chen's bankruptcy. With internal and external troubles, he got involved with the mad dog Yicheng for no reason.

But this was all intentional by Lin Shizhong. The beginning of this conspiracy changed from an incident in the previous life to drugging at a charity dinner. Under Lin Shizhong's manipulation, he became the initiator of this vicious competition.

"This is inexplicable. If they had messed with someone else, wouldn't Yicheng be afraid of offending others?" Chen Qizhao chewed some fruit and said casually, "Yan Kailin was sitting next to me at the time, and his wine glass was close to me. He could have accidentally picked up the wrong thing. Yicheng is really bold."

Lin Shizhong's eyes fell on Chen Qizhao and he explained his nonsense: "Their target is the Lin family. No matter who is caught, he probably wants to transfer the conflict to our side."

"But that's because our family has a good relationship with Uncle Lin." Chen Qizhao's eyes stayed on Lin Shizhong, and said, "I think Yicheng thinks that it's common for rich second-generations like us to take drugs and drink, and they want to cover this up. Don't you think so, Uncle Lin?"

Lin Shizhong's expression lightened a little, and he said, "Kid, just let us handle this matter. Take good care of yourself these few days. You look pale."

Zhang Yazhi added: "This child is picky about food. He needs to be fed when he returns home this time."

But this time, Chen Jianhong listened to Chen Qizhao's nonsense. He looked at his eldest son who had been silent all the time, and asked, "What do you think about Shi Ming's matter?"

Chen Shiming said tactfully: "What Uncle Lin said makes sense. Let's wait and see what happens over at Yicheng first."

Chen Jianhong instructed Jiang Yuze beside him: "You go and arrange this matter, and notify me if there is any situation."

Chen Shiming had just finished talking to Chen Jianhong when he suddenly caught a glimpse of Special Assistant Xu standing at the door of the ward. He had something on his mind, so he said, "You guys chat, I'll go take care of my work."

When he walked out, he closed the door. When he closed the door, he suddenly caught the gaze of Chen Qizhao on the hospital bed. His eyes were calm.

Chen Shiming paused for a moment, and the next moment Chen Qizhao turned his head, picked up the fruit knife in front of the bedside table and peeled an apple for himself.

The door was closed. Assistant Xu looked around and saw his boss still standing at the door. He whispered, "Boss?"

Chen Shiming looked away and asked, "What is the result of the investigation?"

After Special Assistant Xu confirmed that there was no one there, he reported to his superior in a low voice and briefly explained the results of the investigation.

"The company has been deregistered?" Chen Shiming looked at Assistant Xu: "Are you sure?"

"Confirmed. It was said that the application was made the day after the party. When I checked again not long after, it showed that it had been cancelled." Only after investigating did Special Assistant Xu realize the seriousness of the matter. Why would two companies that were developing well suddenly want to cancel their registration? There was absolutely no justifiable reason for this. This time, his boss suddenly wanted to investigate these two people, so he spent some time to investigate. Especially when he found out that these two companies were related to Lin, he immediately told Chen Shiming the results of the investigation.

But just when Chen Shiming told him to continue investigating, the companies of these two seemingly unrelated people were cancelled one after another, and all traces of news about them on the Internet were deleted, as if they were in a hurry to destroy something.

When Chen Shiming heard this, he caught a glimpse of Lin Shizhong who was still talking to Chen Jianhong in the ward, and thought of what Chen Qizhao had said to him at that time.

After hearing what Chen Qizhao said, he was more skeptical. After all, there were so many people with similar figures at the venue, and it was more likely that Chen Qizhao was drunk and made a mistake. But he happened to find out that Lin had a relationship with those two people, so the credibility of Chen Qizhao's words rose to a new level.

"Has the matter of the jade necklace been dealt with?" Chen Shiming asked.

Special Assistant Xu said: "It has been processed. The things will be delivered to the villa according to your instructions."

Why would Lin Shizhong want to snatch an ordinary jade necklace from his brother? If he liked it, he could just say it directly. There was no need to arrange for people to snatch it secretly. Moreover, he was eager to destroy his connection with those two people after the party. If Chen Qizhao hadn't suddenly mentioned these two people, he might have seen another layer of information when he checked a few days later, and might not have been able to find out the relationship between those two people and Lin's.

Is it really that simple to take drugs when drinking?

"Who is responsible for the project in Y City?" Chen Shiming asked in a low voice.

Special Assistant Xu hesitated and said, "It should be another project team. We don't discuss the Y City project here, but I heard that it seems to be someone arranged by Mr. Chen. I saw Brother Jiang go to the office there several times."

After he finished speaking, he asked again: "Boss, do you want to investigate this matter as well?"

"Go check what happened with our competition with Yicheng."

Chen Shiming hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't tell anyone, including Mr. Chen."

This matter is not that simple, he feels something is not right.
