Chapter 197 Touched His Sore Spot
Wu Wang briefly explained the situation to Qin Shi, and Qin Shi did not interrupt Wu Wang during the conversation.
After Wu Wang finished telling him everything he knew, he concluded by saying, "Go check the news now; it's all about Jianye Company."
Qin Shi's expression darkened slightly: "Your friend said it was leaked last night?"
"Correct!"
"It was last night!"
After saying that, Wu Wang frowned, still finding it hard to believe: "Really not you?"
"You didn't keep this from me too, did you?"
"Also, is something wrong on your end? I have a feeling something's not quite right."
Qin Shi's sudden urge to take revenge on his mother is something that others might not necessarily do.
After all, she's my own mother, we're related by blood.
But that's exactly what Qin Shi did.
Extremely ruthless.
This is Qin Shi's personality. If he likes someone, he will protect that person very much. If he doesn't like someone, nothing that person does will please him.
He doesn't like his mother.
he knows.
But Qin Shi had never done anything to his mother before; this was the first time.
They're so ruthless right from the start; they're going to expose everything.
Sun Huilan must have crossed Qin Shi's line.
Otherwise, Qin Shi wouldn't have done that.
Qin Shi only briefly explained the reason to him, but that reason was far from enough to justify his actions against his own mother.
There must be other reasons.
He felt something was off last night, but didn't think much of it. But when he learned about Jianye Company this morning, he felt even more uneasy.
Qin Shi must be hiding something from him, otherwise there wouldn't be this constant stream of news.
As Qin Shi listened to Wu Wang's words, the scene from last night flashed before his eyes.
The black car was parked in front of the hospital. He couldn't see the people inside, but he could see her bending down and talking to them with a big smile on her face.
A powerful figure in a villa in Qingbei, driving a Maybach, whose wife died in a car accident...
The key words came to mind, he clenched his knuckles and said, "I'll contact you later."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
He knew exactly who was around Zhou Yi. The only person who could take action against Jianye Company was the "Mr" she mentioned.
gentlemen……
To target a Fortune 500 company for the sake of a servant.
This gentleman probably doesn't consider Zhou Yi a servant...
At that moment, Qin Shi's heart pounded in his chest, extremely fast and with great force.
He gripped the phone tightly in his palm.
It was so tight that the joints turned white.
Public hot water area.
Zhou Yi knew nothing—no news reports, no updates, and even less about the current online buzz.
She went to a tap, turned it on, and splashed the warm water on her face to rub it.
After rubbing for a while, she scooped up some water and drank it to rinse her mouth. After this simple cleansing, she took off her loose bun and combed it back up with her hands.
After doing all that, she straightened her clothes in front of the mirror. Looking at her refreshed reflection, she grinned, revealing a row of pearly white teeth.
A new day, another beautiful day.
Everything will be fine.
Zhou Yi smiled brightly at her reflection in the mirror and immediately went back inside.
The doctor won't be here anytime soon; it will probably be after eight o'clock.
Before that, she called Aunt Dong to ask about Yu Yu.
I wonder if Yuyu slept well last night.
According to the little one's schedule, he should be awake at this time.
Thinking of the little one, Zhou Yi quickened her pace.
She was afraid Yu Yu would cry.
In particular, last night my husband said he was taking Yu Yu with him.
However, from a distance, Zhou Yi could see Qin Shi sitting in his chair, his expression clearly not right.
He gripped his phone tightly, his face was cold, and his aura was cold as well.
He was lost in thought, oblivious to everything around him.
Zhou Yi had never seen Qin Shi like this before, and it was a little frightening.
Her footsteps became lighter as she carefully approached Qin Shi's side and whispered, "Brother."
Qin Shi was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't even notice she had returned.
But upon hearing Zhou Yi's voice, his expression shifted, all the expressions in his eyes vanished, and he returned to his previous state.
"Has it been cleaned?"
He looked at her.
Her face was fair and clean, no longer as red as last night. The handprint had long since disappeared, and even the redness left by that slap was gone.
Her face returned to normal; after washing, her pores were open, and her skin was so soft it looked like you could squeeze water out of it.
Seeing that Qin Shi's expression had returned to normal, in the blink of an eye.
It seems that what Zhou Yi just saw was her illusion.
But she wasn't mistaken; her brother's expression was off, as if something was wrong.
Zhou Yi never inquired about Qin Shi's affairs, but Qin Shi's expression just now worried her. She whispered, "Brother, is something wrong? You didn't look well just now."
After speaking, Zhou Yi carefully examined Qin Shi's expression, trying to discern any clues.
If anything happens to her brother, she will help him immediately.
Seeing her worried and nervous look, Qin Shi smiled, took her hand, and pulled her down to sit next to him: "It's nothing, I just heard a friend tell me about someone else."
"Is it someone else's business?"
Zhou Yi was somewhat incredulous: "Isn't this my brother's problem?"
Fearing that Qin Shi might misunderstand, Zhou Yi quickly said, "Brother, if there's anything you need me to do, you must tell me."
She didn't know if she could help her brother, but she hoped that she could be of help if he needed it.
Qin Shi's smile deepened: "It's not my problem, but if I need your help, I'll let you know."
After saying that, his eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "Now that you mention it, it seems there really is something like that."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi immediately sat up straight, his face extremely serious: "Brother, tell me, what is it?"
She looked as if she would go through fire and water without hesitation if Qin Shi had asked her to.
Qin Shi said gently, squeezing her hand: "It's nothing serious, I just suddenly thought of your boss."
"Huh? My boss?"
"gentlemen?"
"Ah."
Zhou Yi was surprised: "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly think of Mr. [the Master]?"
My brother and my husband have never been related.
Qin Shi looked at her and said, "Your boss is a very good person. He has always helped you. Grandma is still alive and well by our side, all thanks to your boss."
"So I'd like to formally invite your boss to dinner to express my gratitude."
Zhou Yi instantly relaxed: "So that's what it is. I thought it was something serious."
When her brother suddenly mentioned the gentleman, Zhou Yi subconsciously tensed up.
But she was relieved to find out that nothing was wrong.
However, what you said is indeed very important, and it's true.
Although the gentleman lacks nothing, we cannot refrain from doing anything just because he has everything.
In an instant, Zhou Yi suddenly understood.
Yes, the man's things are his, but she did them herself.
This is different.
Completely different concepts.
Instantly, Zhou Yi's face lit up with a smile, and she said, "Brother, I'll treat the gentleman!"
"You don't need to invite me, I'll treat you!"
Please have a proper meal with her to express your sincere gratitude. As her elder, I will accompany her.
To show respect to the gentleman.
Looking at the smile on the face of the person in front of her, Qin Shi said, "It's the same whether you treat me or I treat you, it just depends on when your boss has time."
After a slight pause, he continued, "Your boss must be very busy. It might not be easy to get him to come."
Zhou Yi immediately said solemnly, "Brother, let me ask the master."
"Perfect timing. I need to call Aunt Dong to ask about Yu Yu, and then I'll ask if Mr. is still at the hotel. If he is, I'll talk to him and ask if he has time."
"Ah."
I won't go into more detail about the Qin Dynasty.
Zhou Yi immediately took out her phone and dialed Aunt Dong's number.
