Chapter 288: Don’t ask unlucky questions



There is no doubt that it was Old K who sent the message.

Zhou Fang took the phone from me and made a call directly.

——No one answered.

I took my cell phone, went to the balcony and called Su Wanyu.

Hearing my voice, Su Wanyu seemed to be in a bad mood, even a little surprised, "Ruan Nanzhi, you are still alive..."

The voice suddenly stopped, "Why are you calling me?"

I know the answer but I still ask.

I didn't intend to beat around the bush with her and spoke directly, "Su Wanyu, I know you want to fight for the Shen family's property on Shen Xingyu's behalf. Okay, I promise you, as long as it's the portion that grandma left for me in her will, I can give it all to Shen Xingyu! Is that okay?"

"Um?"

Hearing this, Su Wanyu became delighted and said leisurely, "Are you negotiating terms with me, or... begging me?"

I glanced through the French door at my peacefully sleeping grandma and suppressed my anger. "Whatever you think is true, I just need the antidote. Su Wanyu, if something really happens to grandma, it won't be good for you, right?"

They were always afraid that if grandma regained her consciousness, she would send me back to the Shen family, but if they really wanted to do something to grandma, they didn't dare to kill her.

I'm just afraid that in my grandmother's will, the Shen family will be handed over to me.

Come to think of it, they could indeed threaten me with the antidote, but if something happened to grandma because she didn't have time to detoxify, they would probably be more scared than me.

It’s just that I don’t dare to gamble.

Ultimately, this matter is more about who is more cruel.

Su Wanyu chuckled. "Have you thought it through? The Shen family may not be as strong as it was two years ago, but for most people, reaching that social class is something they can never achieve in their lifetime. Giving up your inheritance is equivalent to giving up your chance to join the Shen family. Are you willing to accept that?"

I said coldly, "Whether I'm willing or not, my words don't count, right? Stop talking nonsense. Are you afraid I'll go back on my word? I can sign an agreement, in black and white, but only if you give me the antidote in exchange."

In fact, if it weren’t for my grandma, it wouldn’t mean much to me whether I belonged to the Shen family or not.

"Are you sure?" She was a little incredulous.

"Am I sure?"

I barely hesitated and looked at the time. "It's seven o'clock now. Come to the hospital with the antidote and the agreement before ten o'clock. I'll be there anytime. Is that okay?"

Su Wanyu happily agreed and said firmly, "It's no problem for me."

After hanging up the phone and returning to the ward, Zhou Fang looked at me. Before I could say anything, he had already guessed what I had done.

"Su Wanyu promised you?"

"Yes, I agree."

I nodded.

She would certainly agree. This was why they went to so much trouble.

When I called, Jiang Yuheng and Zhang Yi had already left.

Jiang Yunshu took out a wet wipe from her bag and wiped my arm, which had been dirty at some point in the abandoned factory. She said to me distressedly, "Mom will take care of this for you, okay?"

"Need not."

After reaching an agreement with Su Wanyu, I breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Jiang Yunshu. "She and Shen Wenzhong must be the people you hate the most in your life. It's better for you to just turn away from them."

It is impossible for me to deny my involvement in this matter because Mrs. Shen is my grandmother.

But Jiang Yunshu could deny it, and since she couldn't, why drag her back into the disgusting relationship between Su Wanyu and Shen Wenzhong, making her repeatedly recall the betrayal of the past.

Jiang Yunshu was worried, "But you..."

"It's okay."

I glanced at Zhou Fang, "And Zhou Fang will help me. Besides, I've already made an agreement with Su Wanyu, and she will send the antidote over later."

Seeing that I insisted, Jiang Yunshu didn't say anything else, but just told me not to be stubborn.

I asked Sister Jing to bring dinner over and she left only after we finished eating.

In the huge ward, apart from the sleeping grandma, there were only Zhou Fang and I.

The problem had been solved, so I relaxed and opened my arms to Zhou Fang, "Zhou Fang, give me a hug."

Zhou Fang didn't move. He just stared at me with his eyelashes slightly drooping, and said sullenly, "Ruan Nanzhi, are you trying to scare me to death?"

"……sorry."

I knew what he said was something that happened during the day, so I reached out and hooked my hand around his pinky finger, gently shaking it. "I was wrong, Zhou Fang. I still feel a little scared when I think about it now."

"Are you scared now?"

"Well... I'm scared."

I looked up at him and pursed my lips. "The moment the gun went off, my mind was filled with only one thought: what would you do if I died..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly hugged me tightly in his arms, resting his chin on the top of my head, and said, "You have a conscience. Since you don't know, you can't be so impulsive anymore."

"good."

I gently rubbed his chest and suddenly looked at him curiously, "If I really died, what would you do..."

He pinched my face and interrupted me with a cold face.

"Don't ask unlucky questions."

He stared straight at me and said, "I'll send you Qiao An's phone number. If you can't contact me again, contact him immediately."

"good."

As soon as I finished speaking, Qiao An called.

"Fourth brother, it's just as you expected. The group went to Tianyu Villa near the abandoned factory, but for some reason they moved to another location. When I got there, the cigarette butts in the ashtray were still hot."

Zhou Fang's eyes darkened slightly. "It seems that there is someone behind this incident today."

"Anyone else?"

"right."

Zhou Fang nodded. "Check right away to find out when this group of people appeared in Jingcheng and where they came from."

Qiao An agreed, then added, "By the way, PL has withdrawn the lawsuit and even offered to continue selling the wafers as long as we pay the corresponding patent fees and compensation."

Hearing this, Zhou Fang was silent for a moment, a hint of sarcasm crossing his lips, "So?"

As soon as Su Wanyu put down her phone, Shen Xingyu came over excitedly.

"Mom, Ruan Nanzhi said she's willing to give up her inheritance?!"

"right."

Su Wanyu's eyes flashed with puzzlement. "She and that old woman have only known each other for a short time. Why is she willing to give up such a large inheritance for her?"

Even if not all the property was left to her, she was the old woman's granddaughter, so half of it would be hers, which was also a very considerable amount.

It is enough for many families to live comfortably for several lifetimes.

Ruan Nanzhiju just said no and that means you don’t want it?

Shen Xingyu didn't want to delve into it further, so she just urged, "Why are you overthinking it? It's just blood ties. Let's find a lawyer to sort out the agreement and take the antidote to the hospital to find her, so she doesn't change her mind."

Seeing that she could finally own assets that truly belonged to her, she couldn't wait.

After so many years in the Shen family, the old woman had never given her anything, but the real power of the Shen family was in the hands of the old woman. What Su Wanyu could give her was too limited!

The first half of her words seemed to strike a chord with Su Wanyu. Su Wanyu looked at her and made a decision: "Go upstairs and change your clothes, then come out with me."

"To the hospital?"

"Go get the antidote first, and meet someone by the way."

Shen Xingyu frowned, "That gangster?"

Although I agreed in the morning, I still felt a little reluctant when I actually had to go and meet him.

In her opinion, these people are cowards who are afraid of the light and are not worthy of having anything to do with her!

Su Wanyu, "You don't want to anymore?"

"A little."

Shen Xingyu reluctantly said, "Didn't you say this morning that this time it's foolproof? But you promised to take this opportunity to find Ruan Nanzhi, but just now on the phone, Ruan Nanzhi sounded full of energy. I'm afraid she's not even injured, right?"

"Why should I go see him when he's doing such a bad job?"

As she spoke, she saw Su Wanyu's disapproval on her face, so she compromised and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
