Forensic Doctor, Moe Wife Chapter 541 - He is So Cold-Hearted

Chapter 541: He is So Cold-Hearted

“Am I the only one being selfish? What about you?” Sheng Kai asked in return. “You and Eighth Brother have no right to question me.”

“Please calm down, all of you. Grandpa is still being examined. If he hears you quarreling, his condition might get worse.” Hu Ran separated the two immediately. “How can you still have the mood to fight?”

Sheng Bowen let go of Sheng Kai’s collar and moved a few steps backward. The two brothers stood each on one side, waiting impatiently for news from the emergency room.

Although they always complained about him in daily life, they were still worried about him in critical moments.

After a while, the doctor came out of the emergency room and said, “It’s nothing serious. He was just experiencing a shock because of oxygen inadequacy. The patient is resting inside. Try not to disturb him.”

“Thank you, doctor.”

The brothers breathed a sigh of relief and entered the ward. They saw the old man sitting on the hospital bed, so they walked over together.

“Grandpa, how are you feeling now?”

“Eighth Brother, you are back.” Grandpa Sheng looked at Sheng Kai and said this naturally.

Sheng Kai was startled, so was Sheng Bowen.

Deep down his heart, Grandpa Sheng was still concerned about Sheng Xiao. He missed Sheng Xiao. He wanted to rely on Sheng Xiao. However, it was him who pushed Sheng Xiao, the person he wanted to get close to, away.

“Grandpa, you should rest well.”

Sheng Bowen helped Grandpa Sheng to lie down. He could feel that Grandpa Sheng had not regained his mind.

“I will accompany Grandpa here. You should go and do whatever you should be doing.” Third Brother was not in the mood to argue with Sheng Kai. So, he volunteered to stay in the hospital.

However, Sheng Kai was worried. “You want to stay here? What if you trick Grandpa into making a will when his mind is still confused? Or maybe, get him to transfer his shares to you without my knowledge.”

Sheng Bowen laughed coldly. “This is my first time discovering how filthy your heart is.”

“I’m just preventing it from happening.”

“Get lost.”

Unexpectedly, Grandpa shouted at Sheng Kai. “Are you wis.h.i.+ng me dead?”

“Grandpa.”

“I’m still sober.”

“Grandpa, I didn’t mean it.”

Grandpa Sheng waved his hand and signaled Sheng Kai to leave immediately. If he did not hear this with his own ears, he would not have believed that Second Brother was so suspicious of Third Brother.

All these years, he always thought that he knew the characters of his two grandsons. Third Brother had indeed never plotted any conspiracy to go against him. But Second Brother was becoming more and more unfamiliar to him recently.

“About the matter of Tiffany & Co. …”

“You just do whatever you deem fit. If the shareholders are dissatisfied and want to dismiss you from your position, you should just accept it.”

This was the last glimmer of hope Grandpa Sheng had for Sheng Kai. If he could not handle this properly, it would mean that he was unfit to become the successor of Huang Yao. It was as simple as that.

Sheng Kai’s heart became heavy. Helplessly, he turned around and left the ward. He could not do anything but return to Huang Yao to figure out how to fix the problem. Since it happened so suddenly, he thought there was a need for him to go to Europe in person to investigate the matter.

After that, the meeting resumed. Sheng Kai consulted the shareholders for approval. “Give me one week and I shall redeem Huang Yao’s loss this time.”

Thinking back about Grandpa Sheng fainting in the meeting room earlier, the shareholders dared not force Sheng Kai anymore and agreed to his request.

“We shall give you a week’s time then. If you cannot overcome the crisis in one week, we, the shareholders, shall believe that you are not fit to be the CEO of Huang Yao. Please keep this in mind, CEO Sheng.”

After that, Sheng Kai got his secretary to book a flight for him right away. He wanted to take off as soon as possible. As for the matter in the hospital, he could only call Gu Ziling. “Grandpa is in the hospital now and Third Brother and his wife are taking care of him. But Ziling, you know what my concerns are. We must not let Third Brother be alone with Grandpa.”

“Don’t worry. Just leave it to me,” Gu Ziling replied.

…

In the ward, before Gu Ziling arrived at the hospital, Grandpa Sheng was laying on the bed while staring at Sheng Bowen. “Third Brother, tell me honestly. Have you been in touch with Eighth Brother?”

“Occasionally,” Third Brother answered. “But we never talk about confidential information about the company. Eighth Brother is not at all interested in Huang Yao.”

“Is that so?” Grandpa Sheng mumbled to himself.

“Grandpa, you should know it clearly that handing the company over to Second Brother will lead to this sooner or later. That is why you are still thinking about Eighth Brother.”

Grandpa Sheng kept mum. After a while, he said to Sheng Bowen, “I want to see him.”

“But he is not in the country now.”

“Then I shall wait for him.”

“I’ll ask him.” Third Brother dared not tell him that Sheng Xiao would not want to see him, so he could only reluctantly promise him something vague.

At the door, Gu Ziling overheard their conversation. Her eyes turned cold. She never expected Sheng Xiao to still be in Grandpa Sheng’s heart after such a long time. Apparently, he doubted Sheng Kai’s capabilities all along.

Why did he want to meet Sheng Xiao now? What did he want to do?

It was undeniable that hearing this made Gu Ziling panic. Because she knew that Sheng Kai’s failed investment in Tiffany & Co. would threaten his position as the CEO. Sheng Kai had worked so hard. But in the end, he was still unable to win over Grandpa Sheng’s heart. He was too biased.

‘Humph, he is so cold-hearted.’

At night, it felt strangely cold in Jianchuan, not just because of the weather, but also because of the people’s hearts.

…

When Feng Shanshan went to the forensics laboratory, she checked on the rooms in the laboratory vigilantly. She was worried that ‘someone’ would jump out of nowhere when she said something bad about him again.

Seeing this, the professor burst into laughter. “Do you really not like Tang Yan that much?”

“Not really, haha.” Feng Shanshan answered sloppily.

Just as the professor was about to point out her blushed face, a police officer knocked on the door. “Professor.”

“What is it?”

“A murder has occurred in a hotel in town. The team leader is requesting for you to come immediately.”

“I’ll get ready and go right away.” The professor beckoned Feng Shanshan. “Let’s go. Qiqi is not around so I can only ask you to come.”

“If Mu Qiqi is here, you will not ask me to come?”

“Stop picking on my words. Pack up fast, life is at stake.” Having said that, the professor grabbed his forensics kit.

Feng Shanshan followed the professor. When she was out, she clearly saw Tang Yan going to the field with the team. Since when did this man have to follow a case?
