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

Thanks to timely rescue, Tang Qiaoer's acute gastric bleeding was not serious and she was transferred to the general ward for rest in the evening.

Tang Yue took care of his sister every step of the way, and the workaholic Tang Feng even asked for leave from the team and stayed tonight to take care of her.

After hearing the news, Tang Xu and Wen Qiang also wanted to visit, but were stopped by Tang Yue.

He knew that Qiaoqiao was now heartbroken and exhausted. Facing them, she was just trying hard to keep up her spirits and put on a forced smile.

She was too tired, and now being in the hospital gave her a chance to rest, so that she wouldn't be depressed and abuse herself.

"Seventh Brother... Can you tell me now?" Tang Qiaoer leaned weakly against the head of the bed and gently blinked her red and swollen eyes.

Tang Feng's eyes were moist and hot, and his voice was muffled, "Qiaoqiao, you are so disobedient."

"I've never been obedient."

Tang Qiaoer frowned and laughed, that smile was still beautiful, but pale and powerless, "Otherwise...how could Jingjue and I become like this?

Big brother, Seventh brother... please don't blame him, okay? He did nothing wrong.

It was me...I lost my sense of shock. It's all my fault..."

Before he finished speaking, tears welled up in his eyes.

"My Qiaoqiao is not wrong, and neither are you."

Tang Yue held his sister's tightly clenched fist with his warm, calloused hands. His trembling chest was filled with bitterness and sorrow, and his heart beat heavily. "It's just that, Qiaoqiao, can you promise your brother that you can always look forward to the future?"

Your life is not just about awakening and love. You still have your father and us brothers and sisters. Qiaoqiao, if you fall, what will we do? Your mother must not want you to be depressed from now on, don’t you think?"

Mother……

Tang Qiaoer's eyes, like a dried-up ancient well, finally had a glimmer of light.

She recalled that her mother was imprisoned in Sen Country and was hunted by the authorities. She was displaced and suffered a lot before she escaped and came to Haimen, where she met her father, got to know him, fell in love with him... and then got married.

That's why she came into being.

Despite enduring so much suffering that ordinary people could hardly imagine, my mother tenaciously survived and did not collapse.

If she was to become dejected and depressed from now on, how could she be worthy of being her mother's only daughter?

She is Tang Qiaoer, not Zhu Yingtai or Juliet. If one dies, the other must die too.

What's more, the shock is still there.

Didn’t she say it herself? It’s more important that he’s alive and well.

"Brother... I understand what you mean. I will be fine... Give me some more time, I will be fine." Tang Qiaoer's dry soft lips opened and closed, repeating over and over again.

Repeating it once, Tang Yue felt heartbroken.

"I've investigated, and among the last people Xie Jinhuan saw, there was one person who caught my strong attention." Tang Feng broke the sad atmosphere and spoke in a deep voice.

Tang Qiaoer leaned forward suddenly, "Who?!"

"Mu Xuerou, Shen Jingzhe's personal physician."

Tang Yue's eyebrows furrowed, and Tang Qiao'er's eyes were also cold. The brother and sister said in unison:

"is her?!"

Tang Feng nodded solemnly, "Two days before Xie Jinhuan died, Mu Xuerou conducted a charity clinic for the prisoners in the detention center.

Not long after that, Xie Jinhuan died of a heart attack. Although there is no evidence to prove that Mu Xuerou was responsible for his death, she had the conditions and the possibility to do this in front of the people Xie Jinhuan had contact with before his death. After all, her sudden appearance in the detention center was too abrupt, wasn't it? "

Tang Qiaoer leaned back on the bed, her eyelashes drooping:

"Suppose that Mu Xuerou really did it. That means Shen Jingzhe knew Xie Jinhuan. Shen Jingzhe sent Mu Xuerou to get rid of Xie Jinhuan because he was afraid that when he went to court and was tried, he would reveal something and bring trouble upon himself, so he killed him to silence him."

The eldest daughter has always had a big imagination and her associative ability is quite amazing.

Even with just a few words or clues, she can make shocking and bold guesses.

Tang Yue's eyes widened. "Shen Jingzhe knows Xie Jinhuan? They don't have any connection."

Tang Feng also agreed, "After knowing that Mu Xuerou had contact with Xie Jinhuan, I immediately checked her identity information. She really didn't know Xie Jinhuan, and her background and resume really didn't overlap with Xie Jinhuan at all."

Tang Qiaoer: "But why did she go to the free clinic for no apparent reason? Brother Qi, you also said that this is very abrupt."

"She not only provides free medical services, she has also become a prison doctor and special consultant. All the formalities are complete and the city has approved it. She will take up her post next month."

Tang Feng frowned, "There is indeed a certain amount of coincidence involved. Qiaoqiao, I also hope that it would be so easy to catch the murderer, but we must have direct evidence to catch someone, and guesswork is absolutely not an option."

"Shen Jingzhe has been away from Shengjing for nearly twenty years. We have no idea what he does outside or who he contacts. But he knows everything about our situation."

Tang Qiaoer shook her head and pinched her sore brows. Unbearable memories came flooding back. "When I was imprisoned on Rose Island by Xie Jinhuan, I accidentally heard Xie Jinhuan talking to someone on the phone and mentioned the medicine that Jingjue had taken.

Xie Jinhuan treated him with great respect and called him "Sir". It was obvious that the person who controlled Xie Jinhuan behind the scenes, allowed him to control the Xie family, and allowed him to conduct experiments on living people was this "Sir".

He is quite knowledgeable about drugs, and Shen Jingzhe... also has deep connections in the field of biopharmaceuticals in Country M.

Are these... just coincidences?"

There was a frightening silence in the ward.

It was too complicated and treacherous, Tang Feng's brain CPU was a little insufficient, "Qiaoqiao, although I know that bad guys won't write these two words on their faces, but what's the point of him doing this?

He is the eldest son of the Shen family, born to Mr. Shen's first wife. In terms of status, he is more noble than Jing Jue. Now that he has returned to the Shen family, if he wants it, Jing Jue may not be able to compete with him. Why is he making so many troubles? If he wants power and status, he can just come back and fight for it. If he does these unjust actions, once he fails, there will be no recovery. The sunk cost is too high!"

Tang Qiaoer closed her bloodshot eyes and panted, "Yes, this is also a question I have been unable to figure out."

"That being said, times are different now."

Tang Yue's face was a bit solemn and a bit worried, "Firstly, Young Master Shen has been away from the Shen family for too long, and he has gradually taken control of the Shen Group. He also has a wide network of contacts in Shengjing, and he has the support of Old Master Shen. It is not easy for Young Master Shen to seize power.

In the past, he still had the support of the Feng family. But his mother is gone, the Feng family building has collapsed, he has no external support, and he has lost the favor of Mr. Shen, so his situation must be worse. "

Tang Qiaoer was young. She didn't even remember the downfall of the Feng family. She couldn't help but be curious:

"Brother, do you know about the downfall of the Feng family?"

At this moment, outside the ward door——

Shen Jingjue walked to the door as if possessed by a ghost and had been standing there quietly for nearly half an hour.
