The boss is chasing after the chaebol’s ex-wife, but you can’t afford it

Both Shen and his son were shocked.

Tang Qiaoer's suppressed surprise was no less than theirs.

There was even a hint of judgment and suspicion in those dark eyes.

"Mr. Shen, Mr. Shen, it's like this."

Mu Xuerou stood behind Shen Jingzhe, her long eyelashes drooping, her brows gathering with worry, "In the kidnapping case eighteen years ago, the young master suffered from organ failure, nerve paralysis and a series of other symptoms after being tortured by the kidnappers. Over the years, the young master has suffered a lot in Country M, and has tried many treatments before his condition has stabilized. He has to rely on handfuls of medicine every day to maintain a normal life."

Hearing this, Shen Guangjing felt very uncomfortable and sighed and murmured:

"Child, you have suffered..."

Shen Jingzhe responded with a faint smile and shook his head.

Mu Xueruo's expression was full of pity: "Back then, due to nerve paralysis, the young master could not control his legs like a normal person. The damage to his organs also made his physical fitness much worse than before. That's why he has been relying on a wheelchair to travel for many years..."

Tang Qiaoer's deep gaze was always on Shen Jingzhe's straight and slender legs, and the emotion in her eyes was difficult to discern.

Shen Guangjing hurried forward and asked with concern: "Jingzhe, how do you feel now?"

"Dad, I'm much better. Look, didn't I just stand up?"

Shen Jingzhe curled his lips lightly, "It's just that I can't run and jump like ordinary people. Daily life is not a problem."

"That's good, that's good!" Shen Guangjing was overjoyed.

After all, the youngest son was in a coma, but the eldest son returned to Shen's at this critical moment, and his health condition had improved significantly compared to before.

His mind became active again.

The depressing haze that had been hanging over his head finally dissipated a little.

"Jingzhe, you've traveled all the way back for Jingjue this time. Thank you for your hard work."

Shen Nanhuai, who had remained silent all this time, spoke up at this time, "Your medical team is all in Country M. Although your health has improved, you shouldn't stop the treatment, right? How long do you plan to stay in Shengjing this time?"

"Um……"

Shen Jingzhe narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled, "Probably, I will stay here forever and never leave. After all, Shengjing and Shen's are my home."

Shen Nanhuai's pupils suddenly shrank.

Tang Qiaoer's expression remained calm, but her hands hanging at her sides were clenched inch by inch, and the light blue blood vessels with distinct meridians were beating faintly.

"Grandpa, Dad, do you know how much I missed you during the years I was alone in Country M? Do you know how much effort I put in to heal my broken body and stand in front of you like a human being again?"

Shen Jingzhe's accusations were originally filled with resentment, but they were subtly resolved by the smile in the corners of his eyes and his magnetic and clear voice, making him look more emotionally stable than anyone else, "I have paid so much and endured so much, just to go home.

Grandpa, from what you said, it seems that you don't welcome me very much."

"No, grandpa is naturally happy that you can come back and reunite with your family."

Shen Nanhuai calmed down and forced a smile, "No matter what, you are still my grandson. I love you all the same."

Tang Qiaoer had stayed with grandpa for so long, she was the worm in grandpa's stomach.

At this moment, grandpa's tone and expression clearly showed his hypocrisy and insincereness.

From the very beginning, Tang Qiaoer felt that her grandfather was very cold and even a little repulsive towards Shen Jingzhe, the son of Shen Guangjing's first wife and the eldest grandson of the family.

Logically speaking, Shen Jingzhe had been raised by his grandfather since childhood, and his appearance and talent were no less than those of Shen Jingjue, who was an illegitimate child at the time.

They are all descendants of the Shen family. Why does grandfather keep his eldest grandson at a distance, but favors his younger grandson, who comes from a humble background, and supports him to become the heir to the Shen family, placing high hopes on him?

Even if it was just because of physical reasons, it was a bit too much. And when he learned that his eldest grandson's health had improved, there was not even a trace of joy on his face.

On the contrary, there is a bit more dread and fear.

Grandpa, what are you afraid of?

Is he afraid that Shen Jingzhe's return will take away the position of heir that originally belonged to Jingjue?

But one-third of Shen's shares and pillar industries are still controlled by grandpa. Jing Jue also has shares and is the president. Even if Shen Guangjing's heart is inclined to the eldest son, it is not so easy for Shen Jingzhe to control Shen's, right?

So, what is my grandfather, who has been on many battlefields and seen many storms, afraid of?

……

When Shen Jingzhe left the hospital, he was still in a wheelchair.

Mu Xueruo and the bodyguard helped him into the luxurious Bentley. He had just sat up straight and the car had just started when Tang Qiaoer suddenly jumped out and grabbed the rising car window glass with both hands!

The bodyguard hurriedly stepped on the brakes. Mu Xueruo was so frightened that her heart was pounding. She stared at Tang Qiaoer's cold and beautiful face angrily:

"Ms. Tang, why did you suddenly rush out and tear open someone's car door? Are you trying to kill yourself?!"

Shen Jingzhe raised his slender and clean hand, signaling Mu Xueruo to shut up, and then smiled at Tang Qiaoer with a gentle look:

"Miss Tang, do you have something to tell me?"

Tang Qiaoer rubbed her tongue across her teeth, "Yes."

Mu Xuerou and the bodyguard were waiting outside the car, and Tang Qiaoer was invited by Shen Jingzhe to get into the car.

In the carriage, there was a faint, bitter smell of medicine, as well as a faint aroma.

Tang Qiaoer's eyebrows sank. This scent made her feel uncomfortable for some reason.

She felt it was a little familiar, but too faint. It passed through her nose and disappeared in an instant, leaving her no time to recall where she had smelled it.

"Ms. Tang, if you have something to say, you can say it now." Shen Jingzhe turned his face with a fine and superior bone structure to look at her, and his voice rolled softly into her cochlea.

"Master Shen, you have lived in Country M for so many years. In order to treat your body, you must have close contacts with many pharmaceutical companies and medical institutions, right?" Tang Qiaoer asked in a deep voice.

Shen Jingzhe nodded, "Yes, we have had some contact. When your father had a stroke, he flew to Country M to ask me for medicine."

"You must have heard of the RC Pharmaceutical Research Institute when you were there? It is very authoritative in the field of biopharmaceuticals in Country M."

Shen Jingzhe's eyes darkened. In the dark carriage, his pupils were like two pieces of black jade shining with dark light:

"heard about it."

"Then I'll trouble you."

Tang Qiaoer took out Shen Jingjue's blood test report from her bosom and handed it to the man. "Jingjue is unconscious because the drug he took controlled his brain. We checked this drug and found that it contains many banned ingredients. There is no drug ingredient in China that matches it. So I suspect that this is a banned drug from overseas.

I have heard of RC more than once from Xie Jinhuan. RC's base is in Country M, so I have reason to suspect that the drug came from RC.

Master Shen, you saved Jingjue's life during the kidnapping case, and now you have come all the way back for him, which shows that you and Jingjue have a deep brotherly love. I think you also hope that Jingjue can wake up soon, right?"

Shen Jingzhe stared at the delicate and fair little face, his voice becoming hoarse, "Although Jingjue and I are not siblings, we grew up together, so of course I hope he is well.

Not only for him, but for you as well."

The tenderness at the end of the sentence made Tang Qiaoer feel a chill down her spine, and she subconsciously avoided his misty gaze.

"If Jing Awakens never wakes up again, won't the rose he has carefully nurtured gradually wither and die?"

"I am not a rose, so I will never wither."

Tang Qiaoer met the man's deep gaze again, and became frank, resolute, and fearless. "If he wakes up, we will fight side by side. If he doesn't wake up, I will fight for him.

I will protect everything that belongs to him. No one can touch or interfere with it. No one can. "

This is what she really wanted to say to Shen Jingzhe in her private chat.

Shen Jingzhe's handsome and elegant features were slightly startled, and he suddenly chuckled, a little lazy and a little playful:

"Miss Tang is right. It was discovered by surprise. No one can take it away."

Tang Qiaoer heard the hidden meaning and her eyes darkened.

"You want me to go through this report and find out what kind of medicine Jing Jue took, right?"

Shen Jingzhe readily accepted, "Okay, I'll help you."

"Thank you, young master." Tang Qiaoer got out of the car quickly without any hesitation.

She stared coldly at the darkened window of the luxury car and watched them leave the parking lot.

Her mind was lingering on a few words over and over again, occupying -

Country M, RC, medicine, Xie Jinhuan, Mr....

To put it bluntly, Xie Jinhuan is that gentleman's boss in the country, a puppet who is discarded after his usefulness is exhausted.

Now, he has completely fallen. It is impossible for Mr. Wang to give up the domestic market just like that. He will support newcomers to take over.

Before, he had been in life-and-death moments more than once, but Shen Jingzhe did not move.

But this time, he rushed back after discovering the Chinese medicine, and returned to Shen's with such a brand new look. Is this a coincidence, or does he have a close relationship with that RC, that gentleman?

This entry point is so intriguing.

Tang Qiaoer vaguely felt that whether he woke up or not, Shen Jingzhe was not a friendly force.

Whether it will become a major problem needs further confirmation.

……

In the carriage, Mu Xuerou couldn't help but feel worried:

"Sir, Miss Tang asked you to check the source of the medicine. This is obviously a test. Maybe she is suspicious of you.

Are you sure you want to tell her what the medicine is?"

"That's not necessary. My brother will wake up soon."

Shen Jingzhe closed his eyes and took a rest, crumpling the report in his hand into a ball of waste paper. "However, I really underestimated Miss Tang. I thought that she would be devastated and confused after suffering such a heavy blow.

I didn't expect that she would adjust her mindset so quickly and throw herself into the battle, and even doubt me. She was so rational and clear-headed that it was amazing.

Very likable. ”

Mu Xuerou couldn't help but feel worried, "Did Tang Qiaoer suspect you? You've only been back in Shengjing for two days, how could it be so fast!"

"Because, it's normal to arouse suspicion when the timing is wrong."

Shen Jingzhe raised his eyebrows disapprovingly, "Just hide it better next time."

At this moment, the luxury car happened to drive into the dim tunnel.

“When you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares into you.”

The ghostly light and shadow flashed across Shen Jingzhe's deep and handsome face. He raised his eyes and looked at his face reflected in the car window. His eyes were cold, strange and sinister, as if he was looking at another person.

"But unfortunately. I am the abyss."
