Chapter 158 Want to drive us away?
She picked up the water cup beside her and swallowed the shrimp dumplings with warm water.
"Even though it was your own carelessness, I can't blame you entirely. Once I find the mastermind behind this, I'm going to smash their heads in."
It was rare to see her so angry. Xu Shaoyu's eyes were filled with doting and his voice was gentle.
"Okay, if we find the mastermind, we will not let him off easily."
His tone, as if coaxing a child, caused Yan Ru to feel dissatisfied.
For the next two days, Yan Ruo stayed in the hospital with Xu Shaoyu and never left.
Fortunately, the VIP ward has a sleeping area specially prepared for bed-mates, as well as a spacious living room and a separate bathroom.
In addition, Xu Shaoyu's condition was getting better and better, and he was awake for longer and longer periods of time, so Yan Ruo didn't feel uncomfortable staying with him.
In the past two days, Su Yue and Song Yichuan came to visit every day, and Special Assistant Liu came on time morning, noon and evening.
It was both to report on the company's situation and because Xu Shaoyu still had to make decisions on some matters.
According to the information Su Yue had found out in the past two days, it was the Zhao family of North City who bribed the truck driver and caused Xu Shaoyu's car accident.
Yan Ruo was a little puzzled. Although the Zhao family was a competitor of the Xu family in business.
But over the years, the Xu Group has developed rapidly under Xu Shaoyu's leadership, while the Zhao family's company has been getting worse year by year.
The two families are not on the same level at all, let alone a competitive relationship. Why would they want to kill Xu Shaoyu?
Suddenly, she thought of something, "Could it be that the Zhao family was the mastermind behind your father's car accident that year?"
Xu Shaoyu's face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes were icy cold.
"It's the Zhao family. I didn't expect you to be right. It seems they knew I had found out about them, so they're desperate."
"So what are you going to do?"
A cold glint flashed across Xu Shaoyu's eyes. "Whether it was the assassination of my father back then or the attack on me now, the Zhao family only cares about their wealth and they are afraid of being wiped out by me."
"Since they failed to kill me this time, I will naturally not be polite."
"Originally, the car accident happened too long ago, and the evidence we found wasn't enough to send Zhao Hongyi to jail. I wanted to destroy the Zhao family first."
"I didn't expect them to be so impatient and actually dare to attack me. Isn't this ready-made evidence?"
This didn't sound right, and Yan Ruo looked at Xu Shaoyu with suspicion.
"When you drove out by yourself that day, did you already guess that the Zhao family would take action against you?"
Xu Shaoyu paused for two imperceptible seconds, slowly leaned back, and then spoke firmly.
"How is that possible? I promised you that nothing will happen."
Although his expression was calm, the suspicion in Yan Ruo's eyes had not disappeared at all. She said in a somewhat heavy tone.
"If you want to deal with the Zhao family, you can slowly look for evidence from other sources. It's not worth sacrificing yourself for the sake of the Zhao family."
"It's really not worth it. Don't worry, even for you, I will be more careful in the future."
A trace of regret flashed in Xu Shaoyu's eyes. He was indeed careless this time.
"I hope you'll keep your promise."
Xiao Zhang just happened to bring over some porridge.
Yan Ruo didn't want to dwell on this matter any longer. Xu Shaoyu was already like this, so there was not much point in saying anything more.
She opened the lunch box and let the porridge cool down. When she felt it was no longer hot, she scooped up a spoonful and slowly fed it to Xu Shaoyu's mouth.
Starting today, he can finally eat something.
The doctor also said that his wound was healing well. Unless there were any accidents, he would be able to be discharged from the hospital in another week and go home to lie down and rest.
After finishing the porridge, I put away the lunch box and looked at the person lying on the bed, looking at me with a comfortable expression.
Yan Ruo asked, "Are you going to keep the news of your car accident a secret?"
"Let's keep it a secret." Xu Shaoyu placed his uninjured right hand on the back of his head.
"Just use your previous excuse and say I had an appendectomy."
He snorted softly, "If I say I was in a car accident, it will only cause unrest within the group. Who knows how many rumors will spread."
After thinking for a while, he looked at Yan Ruo.
"When I'm discharged from the hospital, come with me to visit the group headquarters."
Yan Ruo disagreed, "The doctor said that even if you are discharged from the hospital, you still need to stay at home and recuperate for a month or so. Put the company matters aside for now."
"Things can be put aside for a while, but you still have to show up."
"Then when you feel better, we can have an online meeting. I'll have Xiao Zhang send the computer over then."
At the same time, Yan Ruo was also a little puzzled, "And why did you take me with you when you went to the company?"
Xu Shaoyu's eyes flashed, "Divert attention."
Yan Ruo understood. He had just announced on his personal social media that he had a girlfriend, and then he brought her, a secretary who had worked at Xu's for more than eight years, to the company to show off.
Everyone's attention will naturally be focused on gossiping about their relationship.
As long as he concealed it a little, Xu Shaoyu could walk around the group headquarters without anyone noticing his injuries.
"You're really cunning." Yan Ru rolled her eyes, packed up her lunch box and left the ward.
He asked Xiao Zhang to stay here before leaving with peace of mind.
Several test results have just come out, and she needs to ask the doctor. She will feel uneasy if she doesn't ask clearly about these test data.
When she came out of the doctor's office and arrived at the door of the ward, she saw Xiao Zhang standing outside the ward with a sad face.
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing her coming, Xiao Zhang took two steps forward as if he had seen a savior.
"The lady somehow knew that Mr. Xu was in the hospital, and she came here with people as soon as you left." He pointed to the closed ward door.
"It seems like he was arguing with Mr. Xu just now, but now he's silent."
Yan Ruo frowned, "He's injured and can't even move, how can you let him in and stand outside yourself?"
As he spoke, he walked quickly forward, pushed open the door of the ward and walked in.
Not only Lin Shuyun and Lin Yuan were standing in front of the bed, but also a young man, Lin Zhixing.
He was the son of Xu Shaoyu's uncle and Xu Shaoyu's cousin. Yan Ruo had only met him twice, but had heard a lot about him.
He is nothing more than an expert at eating, drinking and having fun, and he likes to stir up trouble everywhere by relying on the power of the Xu family.
But Lin Shuyun treated him like a treasure and always helped him clean up the mess under the banner of Xu Shaoyu.
The three men stood there, blocking Xu Shaoyu who was lying on the hospital bed. Yan Ruoxin noticed something and quickly stepped forward to push them away.
I felt relieved when I saw Xu Shaoyu lying there well.
"How are you feeling? Are you okay?"
Xu Shaoyu's originally cold expression softened as he consoled her, "It's okay."
Yan Ruo turned and looked at the three people, "He needs to rest now, it's better not to disturb him too much."
If Lin Shuyun wasn't Xu Shaoyu's biological mother, she would have asked Xiao Zhang to kick these people out directly.
Seeing her like this, Lin Zhixing was the first to feel dissatisfied. He was most afraid of his cousin Xu Shaoyu, who was always arrogant and domineering in front of others.
"Who are you? What does it have to do with you that we're here to see my cousin? What qualifications do you have to say this? Do you even want to drive us away?"
