Looking at Rong Hong, the president of Rong Group, Gu Qingyan had an expression of disbelief. This face was so similar to Shen Zhi Qiu's face, it was as if they were carved from the same mold!
At this moment, no paternity test or any other evidence is needed; the inherited physical appearance speaks for itself.
Gu Qingyan was a little dazed. If Shen Yanshan was not Shen Zhiqiu's biological father, then Lin Yunjin had cheated on him back then.
"Chairman Gu, should we inform the young mistress about this?" Huang Lin couldn't help but ask.
"Not for now. Zhi Qiu's body can't withstand constant stress. Let her rest for a few days, and then I'll go over myself." Gu Suian paused for a moment, still deciding not to bring it up yet. He didn't know that Shen Zhi Qiu had already been told that Lin Yun Jin wasn't her biological mother, so she shared Gu Qing Yan's belief that Lin Yun Jin had cheated on her when she was younger. Bringing up this now would definitely upset Shen Zhi Qiu.
One week later.
Shen Zhi Qiu was accompanying Lin Yun Jin downstairs to bask in the sun. The medical staff said that Lin Yun Jin's condition was getting better and better, and there was hope for her recovery in time.
Shen Zhi Qiu looked at Lin Yun Jin's profile as she basked in the sun with her eyes closed and nodded with some relief.
Thinking back to what Gu Qingyan had told her a few days ago, Qian Shilin finally couldn't take it anymore and confessed that she had forced Dr. Yu to give Lin Yunjin a drug that caused arrhythmia. In addition, the long-term injection of large amounts of antidepressants into Lin Yunjin naturally caused her body to collapse.
Shen Zhi Qiu was furious and roared that she would send them all to prison. But Gu Qing Yan told her to calm down first, because the mastermind behind it all had not yet been found.
"Isn't the mastermind behind this Shen Yanshan and his current wife?" Shen Zhi Qiu's eyes widened as she said angrily, "I said before that it was related to his wife, but I believe it must also be related to Shen Yanshan!"
“The current evidence isn’t conclusive, but I’m certain there’s someone else behind this. And this person must wield immense power, which is why Qian Shilin would rather die than speak out. He only said that if he confessed, his whole family would die. Shen Yanshan probably can’t do that. But don’t worry, I will definitely dig out who’s behind this.” Gu Qingyan assured her, for some reason, he vaguely felt that this matter was inextricably linked to the Rong family.

In the evening, Lu Jia accompanied Shen Zhi Qiu for a walk in the hotel garden. The doctor said that Shen Zhi Qiu should increase her exercise and take more walks.
Just as she finished walking around, Shen Zhi Qiu's phone rang.
Shen Zhi Qiu took out her phone and frowned when she saw the familiar last four digits of the number.
"What's wrong?"
"It's that man again." Shen Zhi Qiu pursed her lips, but still answered the call.
"What is it?" Shen Zhi Qiu asked bluntly.
“Miss Shen, please don’t be so cold. After all, I helped you out of a predicament last time and took that troublemaker Xiao Wanqing away from the Gu family. Moreover, I kindly told you about your background.” The middle-aged man said with a smile.
"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up." With that, Shen Zhi Qiu prepared to hang up the phone.
Suddenly, a shout came from the other end of the phone.
"Sister Zhi Qiu, help me!"
"So, Miss Shen, do you still want to hang up?" The middle-aged man was certain she would give in.
Lu Jia, who was standing nearby, also heard this, and his eyes instantly filled with murderous intent.
"What do you want to do? Don't hurt him! Let's talk this over." Shen Zhi Qiu panicked and shouted into the phone.
“That’s more like it. Miss Shen, if you don’t want them to die quietly in the mountains, then find a way to bypass the bodyguards and come out to meet me.”
"I need to say a few words to Xiaoyu first," Shen Zhi Qiu said through gritted teeth.
"Sister Zhi Qiu!" Lu Xiaoyu's voice came over in a somewhat frightened tone.
"Xiaoyu," Shen Zhi Qiu choked up the moment she heard his voice, "It's all my fault for dragging you into this. Don't worry, I'll get you out of here soon. How's Grandma?"
"Grandma is fine. They didn't make things difficult for her because she's old." Lu Xiaoyu remembered that Shen Zhi Qiu was pregnant and quickly reassured her.
"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaoyu." Before Shen Zhi Qiu could say anything, the phone in Lu Xiaoyu's hand was snatched away, and the man's voice replaced it.
"Miss Chen, I'll wait for your news, but don't wait too long, or you'll face the consequences." With that, she hung up the phone.
Shen Zhi Qiu gripped her phone tightly, her eyes reddening.
Lu Jia gently grasped her arm. "Zhi Qiu, don't worry, I've got everything under control. Don't forget, Rongcheng is my place. This was my oversight; I didn't expect them to find their way there." Lu Jia's voice was very calm, which reassured Shen Zhi Qiu considerably. "I'll contact Jiang Bei right now. Don't worry too much."
“I’m afraid something will happen to them.” Shen Zhi Qiu was still somewhat worried. “I can’t risk their lives.”
Lu Jia was also worried, but he couldn't show it and make Shen Zhi Qiu even more anxious. He quickly glanced around; all the bodyguards were scattered in various corners, while He Yu stood about ten meters away from them, looking wary. Although outsiders couldn't get in, it would be quite troublesome for them to leave as well.
"Let's find another opportunity to talk about this. Let's not alert them yet," Lu Jia said in a low voice.
"Okay. Let's go upstairs first." Shen Zhi Qiu looked up at the building and suddenly realized it was pitch black upstairs. It was already dark, and they hadn't come downstairs, so it was impossible for them not to have the lights on. Thinking of this, Shen Zhi Qiu felt a sudden panic and pulled Lu Jia upstairs.
Sure enough, when they reached the room door, they saw that the suite door was open.
Zhou Xiaoran was lying on her back on the ground, while Lin Yunjin had already disappeared.
