Shen Family Villa.
"It's been so many days, and they still haven't found it?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen, we've done everything we can, but we really can't find Miss's whereabouts."
"A bunch of useless trash! What's the use of me paying you to support you? You can't even find a single person!" Shen Yanshan frowned, his eyes wide as he cursed angrily.
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Shen. I heard that the president of the Gu Group is also looking for the young lady, but he hasn't found her yet."
"Hmph, all you do is make excuses! Keep searching!"
As Shen Meiyan walked down the stairs, she saw Shen Yanshan angrily hang up the phone, then pace back and forth in the house with his hands behind his back, his deep eyes revealing no trace of his heart.
"Dad, what's wrong? Why are you so angry?" Shen Meiyan asked casually, playing with the ends of her hair.
“I’ve been asking around a lot lately, but I still can’t find Zhi Qiu. I don’t know where this unfilial daughter has gone. There’s been no news from Gu Qingyan either. I’m worried that if this drags on, it won’t be good.”
Shen Yanshan spoke with a gloomy expression and deep concern.
"Moreover, there's Xiao Wanqing, whose relationship with Gu Qingyan is unclear, by his side right now. If Xiao Wanqing takes advantage of Zhi Qiu's absence to use some tricks, such as getting pregnant to force him to marry, then divorce won't be a joke. After all, Zhi Qiu has been married for several years and hasn't had a child. The Gu family desperately wants a son," Shen Yanshan continued.
Shen Meiyan let her hair down with some displeasure, a cold glint in her eyes. She couldn't wait for Shen Zhi Qiu to become a discarded wife of a wealthy family, but on the surface she still comforted Shen Yanshan, "Dad, don't worry about it. How long can she hide? She's a grown woman and doesn't have much money to spare. It won't be long before she comes out on her own. She can't hide forever without a phone or bank card, can she?"
"Hey, I'm just worried! We didn't get much benefit from her marriage to the Gu family. That piece of land in the western suburbs is a fat sheep. I'm thinking of getting Zhi Qiu to put in a good word for Qing Yan and take over that land. Then our family can take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune."
"Moreover, with the backing of our cooperation with the Gu Group, our company can also increase its value. When you get married, the family you choose will be even wealthier." Shen Yanshan sighed and analyzed for Shen Meiyan.
Shen Meiyan's eyes darted around quickly, her expression changing repeatedly. She hadn't expected this at all, and only now, listening to her father's analysis, did she realize how inconsiderate she had been.
She lowered her head, thinking calmly, when suddenly an idea flashed through her mind. Then she slowly smiled and said cryptically, "Dad, have you asked that person at the sanatorium? It cost you a lot of money, and now it's come in handy, hasn't it? You know, Shen Zhi Qiu cares most about that senile old woman."
Shen Yanshan's brows instantly relaxed, and he raised his hand to slap his thigh, saying coldly, "How could I forget about her! I'll call Dean Li right now! My daughter is so smart, she found the key point right away."
Seeing that the call had been connected, Shen Yanshan smiled sinisterly, "Hello, Dean Li. I'm coming to pick up my mother-in-law so she can stay at home for a while. Make preparations, I'll send someone to pick her up right now."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen, she has already been picked up by a friend of your daughter, Shen Zhi Qiu." Dean Li was relieved to see Shen Yan Shan's call; thankfully, Shen Zhi Qiu had already sent someone to pick her up, which made things much easier.
"What? She took her away? Dean Li, what do you mean? Why didn't you inform me? I was the one who paid for it. Shen Zhi Qiu didn't pay a single penny, and you just let her take her away?" Shen Yanshan frowned and said angrily.
"I'm sorry, President Shen, but according to the agreement, the family has the right to come and take the patient away. Shen Zhi Qiu is the patient's granddaughter, and in principle, we have no right to stop them." Dean Li cited the contents of the agreement, speaking with reason and evidence.
"Hmph!" Shen Yanshan snorted angrily. "You must know where she took her, right? Even if she needed to transfer her to another hospital, you would have been notified where she was transferred, wouldn't you?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen, but Miss Shen's idea is to bring Mrs. Zhao home to settle her in. She said she feels guilty for not spending enough time with the elderly over the years, so this time she specifically brought her home to take care of and accompany her."
"In this case, there's really no need to provide us with an address. As you know, our sanatorium has always encouraged residents to take their recovering elderly relatives home, as this is very beneficial to their condition," Director Li replied humbly.
Shen Yanshan knew he wouldn't get any useful clues from him, so he angrily hung up the phone.
"Dad," Shen Meiyan said resentfully, her face darkening, "this Shen Zhiqi is really something, pulling off such a stunt without a word. She's really something!"
Shen Yanshan frowned, remaining silent, but his anger continued to rise. He secretly vowed to find Shen Zhi Qiu and teach her a lesson before he could quell his rage.
Shen Yanshan quickly scrolled through his phone's contacts, his finger stopping at a name labeled "private investigator," and then he called him.
"Help me find someone."
"President Shen, please send me the information, and I will make the arrangements."
“She is my daughter, Shen Zhi Qiu,” Shen Yan Shan said with a sinister expression.
Hospital corridor.
"Excuse me, which ward is Xiao Wanqing in?" A slightly immature-looking boy in a gray tracksuit appeared at the nurses' station.
"May I ask your relationship to the patient? Also, could you please register me?" A nurse stood up, leaned forward, and handed her a visitor information registration book.
"I'm her boyfriend." The boy lowered his head, smiled shyly, and then wrote his name in the register: "Lin Su".
