At that moment, Wu Youyou cheerfully pushed open the door and entered, her face beaming with smiles. She greeted him warmly, "Big brother, look who's come to see you!"
Wu Maoyan turned his head and saw a handsome man. He smiled slightly and said, "You finally came to see me!"
“Big brother, I just finished filming and came straight to see you. Youyou can vouch for me!” Wu Qifeng said, gesturing for Wu Youyou to say something on his behalf.
Knowing the reverence her second brother held for her eldest brother, Wu Youyou quickly replied, "That's right, eldest brother. My second brother contacted me early this morning to ask me to come and see you together."
Wu Maoyan's smile remained bright as he looked at his younger siblings in front of him, a feeling of indescribable happiness welling up inside him.
He had thought that when that dagger pierced his chest, he would never see his family again.
"Come, sit here with your older brother!" Wu Maoyan said gently to Wu Qifeng.
Wu Qifeng was a little stunned. His older brother had never spoken to him so gently before. Although he was not used to it, he couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache when he saw how weak his brother looked.
He walked over and sat down on the stool in front of the hospital bed.
"Brother, I heard you were stabbed and almost lost your life. I was very worried when I heard this on set." Wu Qifeng's expression was somewhat heavy.
"Don't be afraid, I'm standing here perfectly fine, I won't die!" Wu Maoyan said with a lighthearted self-deprecating laugh.
"Pah, pah, pah, what do you mean by dying? Big brother will definitely live to be a hundred!" Wu Youyou said with concern from the side.
Seeing his younger sister's appearance, Wu Maoyan felt very satisfied.
He looked at his younger sister and said, "Little sister, while I'm in the hospital, try to spend more time with Mom if you don't have any problems."
Wu Youyou nodded, indicating that she understood.
At this moment, Han Shuzhen checked the time and said to everyone, "You all continue chatting. I'm going to buy a fish, cook it with my aunt when I get back, and then bring it over to Maoyan."
Wu Qifeng then noticed Han Shuzhen.
My mother mentioned on the phone before that there was a girl named Han Shuzhen who was my older brother's girlfriend.
His older brother was injured while saving this girl. Thinking of this, his eyes brightened considerably.
"Oh my, this must be my sister-in-law!" Wu Qifeng said, feigning surprise.
The word "sister-in-law" immediately made Han Shuzhen blush, and she glanced at Wu Maoyan shyly.
Wu Maoyan said with a smile, "Qifeng, why don't you hurry up and say hello to your sister-in-law!"
Wu Qifeng immediately called out loudly, "Hello, sister-in-law!"
Han Shuzhen said somewhat shyly, "You're welcome!"
Seeing that Han Shuzhen was a little uncomfortable, Wu Youyou took the initiative to smooth things over, saying, "Shuzhen, my second brother is just straightforward, and he approves of you too."
Han Shuzhen nodded slightly, indicating her understanding.
Wu Maoyan turned to Han Shuzhen and said with a smile, "Shuzhen, then thank you for going back to help my mother. She doesn't know where to buy fish yet."
Han Shuzhen replied, "I know the place. It's still early, so I'll go to the supermarket to buy fish. Tell your aunt not to wander around and to wait for me at home."
After Han Shuzhen left, Wu Qifeng asked seriously, "Brother, who was the person who tried to kill you that day?"
Wu Maoyan and Wu Youyou exchanged a glance, hesitating whether to tell Wu Qifeng.
But considering his personality, he might not give up if we don't tell him, and investigating it ourselves might also get us into trouble.
Therefore, Wu Youyou firmly said to Wu Maoyan, "Big brother, we shouldn't keep this from second brother anymore."
Wu Maoyan spoke softly, revealing the truth: "It was the Xiao family of Kyoto who did it. According to the investigation by Shi Zhan's men, there were two groups of people who captured Shuzhen: one was her sister, and the other was her father. And the person who wanted to kill us was her father."
Wu Qifeng was shocked upon hearing this: "Are there really such cruel fathers in this world? They even kill their own children!"
Wu Youyou's eyes were filled with anger: "This Xiao Ran is truly worse than a beast, secretly refining such an evil technique as blood bath."
Wu Qifeng asked, puzzled, "A blood bath?"
Wu Youyou added, "It's like taking a bath with the blood of living people!"
Wu Qifeng was even more shocked after hearing this.
Wu Maoyan looked at them seriously and said, "Don't act rashly without evidence. We might alert the enemy. Now that Shuzhen's identity is out in the open, Xiao Ran will definitely make a big show of inviting her back to the Xiao family home and protect her carefully, ensuring she isn't harmed. Otherwise, he'll be caught in a media storm over the murder of his own daughter. But Xiao Ran isn't stupid; he won't act rashly. Only by approaching him openly will we have the opportunity to gather evidence of his crimes."
Wu Youyou's eyes sparkled as she turned to Wu Maoyan, "So Big Brother and Shuzhen were prepared all along!"
Wu Maoyan nodded, his tone firm: "Yes, Shuzhen and I have decided to stand in the sunlight so that they will not dare to make any rash moves."
Seeing his elder brother's confidence, Wu Qifeng also wanted to contribute to the family, so he asked, "Brother, what can I do for you?"
Wu Maoyan looked at him gently and reminded him, "You should develop your career in the entertainment industry well, but remember you only have three years. If you don't make progress by then, your father might let you come back to inherit the Wu family business."
Wu Youyou glanced at her older brother and noticed a faint trace of sadness on his face.
Yes, although the eldest brother was more outstanding than the second brother, their father always hoped that the second brother would inherit the family business, which was no secret in the Wu family.
Wu Qifeng has no interest in inheriting the family business. He firmly stated, "Brother, I'm really not suited to inheriting. I love acting, and this is the path I've chosen."
To change the subject, Wu Youyou turned to her older brother and asked curiously, "Big brother, when will your software development be finished?"
Wu Qifeng was also very curious about this and asked, "Yes, brother, when will your great cause succeed?"
Wu Maoyan sighed when mentioning the project, admitting, "This project is extremely expensive, and I have already invested a lot of money. It is currently at a critical stage and needs more financial support."
Upon hearing this, Wu Qifeng readily agreed to help his elder brother: "Brother, how much money do you need? I have some here, I can give you anything!"
"And mine too!" Wu Youyou echoed, expressing her support.
Wu Maoyan felt very gratified to see his younger siblings being so generous.
However, he knew that their total savings were less than two billion, while his project would require at least ten billion in investment in the later stages.
So he smiled and said to them, "Don't worry about this. We've already started raising funds and have had preliminary talks with some business owners, but the amounts are too large, so we're still negotiating further."
Wu Youyou couldn't help but ask curiously, "How much more money do we need?"
Wu Maoyan replied with a worried expression, "Ten billion!"
