Chapter 146: Chapter 148: Comatose!

Fang Yi and Shen Hongyang were discussing their "grand plan" when, before they realized it, the time had passed, and it was already over three o’clock in the morning. The night shift guard, Tang Xiaoguo, came running to inform them that Shen Binnan had awakened.

Shen Binnan, who had now regained consciousness, leaned against the elevated pillows and looked at Fang Yi with a complex expression.

Fang Yi asked Tang Xiaoguo to leave, leaving just the three of them in the ward.

"Did I pass out, what happened before?" Shen Binnan looked at Fang Yi, feeling some pain on her forehead.

So Fang Yi told Shen Binnan about the incident, and when she heard that Fang Yi had faced four enemies alone, Shen Binnan’s heart tightened slightly.

Even though she appeared very cold on the outside, like an unmelting iceberg, keeping a stern face and pushing people thousands of miles away, this didn’t mean Shen Binnan was without emotion.

Even though she didn’t know how powerful the other two assassins were, knowing that Fang Yi had fought a bloody battle and killed the brothers Ren Three and Ren Four, her heart gradually loosened, cracking open a fissure.

Being able to stay by her side at that moment, without leaving and ensuring her safety, Shen Binnan knew very few people could do such a thing.

"Thank you." In the end, Shen Binnan uttered these two words, still somewhat cold, but sincerely.

"I’ve never heard you say ’thank you’ before, hmm, I’ll reluctantly accept it," Fang Yi said with a smile.

Shen Binnan said, "Don’t wear out the good impression I’ve just started to have for you so quickly."

Fang Yi, however, was ungracious and said, "Oh, so you’ve already taken a liking to me? That’s good, so when will you agree to be my girlfriend?"

Although she knew Fang Yi was teasing her, Shen Binnan couldn’t help retorting, "Maybe in the next life."

"That’s fine, after this life, we’ll still be together in the next one," Fang Yi shamelessly declared.

Not only planning to wreak havoc in someone’s life for this lifetime but also the next, Shen Binnan truly had never seen someone so shameless.

"Cough cough."

Seeing his daughter being teased, Shen Hongyang, who was beside her, finally couldn’t bear it any longer. He coughed twice with a stern face to signal to Fang Yi that there was still a big living person standing there.

"Uncle Shen, no, I should change how I address you now, Father-in-law, are you catching a cold?" Fang Yi still had a thick face, without a bit of self-consciousness or shame.

Shen Hongyang: "..."

In the ward, Fang Yi sat down and took Shen Binnan’s pulse, noting her breathing was just slightly weak and she only needed some recuperation.

Afterward, the three of them began to discuss.

"Fang Yi has a big plan..." Shen Hongyang began to share with Shen Binnan the grand plan he had discussed earlier with Fang Yi.

During this process, Shen Binnan’s eyes first showed excitement, then they shone even brighter, and finally, she looked at Fang Yi in surprise, as if asking, "Did you really come up with this?"

"Don’t doubt me. The brain is a great thing, you should have one too," Fang Yi confidently remarked.

Shen Binnan glared, brewing her response for a long time, finally culminating in one word: "Scram!"

...

The next day, something very unexpected happened at Longtu Group.

Shen Binnan, the CEO who had never been late because of weather, was late, and as time went on, people realized that it wasn’t just that Shen Binnan was late, but that she hadn’t come at all.

And on that day, Fang Yi didn’t come either.

The situation was the same on the second day, Shen Binnan didn’t come to Longtu Group, neither did Fang Yi, and some of the company’s staff couldn’t help but speculate: it seemed as if the two had made an agreement. They wouldn’t happen to have gone out to play together, would they?

However, on the third day, Shen Hongyang arrived at the company and made an announcement that shocked the entire corporation.

"The current CEO had an accident and fell, hitting her head and suffered a concussion. It is unknown when she will wake up."

This was personally announced by Shen Hongyang, shocking all of the company’s people.

The CEO fell? And she got a concussion from the fall? Unconscious?

Could it be that she became a vegetative person?

Everyone guessed in unison.

After all, this was personally announced by Shen Hongyang; he wouldn’t joke about his own daughter. The sorrowful expression on Shen Hongyang’s face, as if he was about to burst into tears, had been witnessed by many.

From this, people truly believed.

Immediately afterward, everyone was astounded. How could someone suddenly fall and get a concussion?

But the world is full of wonders, and a CEO falling and suffering a concussion had indeed happened; it was a fact.

...

"A concussion? Hmph, why didn’t this woman just die!" In an office, Ren Hao angrily spoke, but there was laughter on his face, impossible to hide.

"A concussion? I don’t believe it..." Ren Tianqing shook his head.

"It’s not a concussion, it might have been caused by the third and fourth Ren brothers," Ren Hao said, aware of what had occurred that night.

Ever since the third and fourth Ren brothers had left that night, they hadn’t returned. At the time, Ren Hao and his father, Ren Tianqing, thought that these brothers might have died.

And indeed it was so. The guards had found their bodies, along with a man from Cangyun and a man from the dark nation, both assassins who had also died, hired by Ren Tianqing for a hefty sum.

"These brothers... sigh." Mentioning the third and fourth Ren brothers, Ren Tianqing’s expression became somewhat embarrassed, but he quickly pulled himself out of that emotion and regained his composure.

"Don’t trust it, maybe Shen Hongyang is setting off a Smoke Bomb. We need to investigate and find out the truth first," Ren Tianqing said, very calm, immediately thinking of this possibility.

That very day, Ren Hao had people go to the hospital where Shen Binnan was staying and had paid a hefty sum to bribe some doctors. The result was the same as the news that had come out.

"It’s really a concussion, Shen Binnan has become a vegetable!" Two days later, in the office, Ren Hao spoke with extreme excitement.

"Good! With Shen Binnan out of the picture, we can move on to the next step," Ren Tianqing said, seemingly invigorated as well.

"But that Fang Yi..."

"Whether he’s dead or alive doesn’t matter. What matters is Shen Binnan. Now that Shen Binnan is a vegetable, Longtu Group’s stock price has plummeted. We must take this opportunity to buy it," Ren Tianqing said, the very image of a business magnate.

...

Late at night, in the hospital room, Fang Yi peeled an apple.

Shen Binnan didn’t take it, looking at him steadily: "Did you wash your hands?"

"I just went to the restroom and washed my hands," Fang Yi said seriously.

"Then you eat it, I won’t," Shen Binnan refused.

"Just joking with you, you really took it seriously, huh." Fang Yi insisted, pushing the peeled apple into Shen Binnan’s mouth, saying, "You need to recuperate right now, an apple is good for your body."

Shen Binnan was stunned, a soft place in her heart gently touched, she simply picked up the apple and started eating. However, at that moment, Fang Yi said something that enraged Shen Binnan.

"I remembered, I think I really didn’t wash my hands, so sorry," Fang Yi shamelessly said.

"..."

But no matter what, since it wouldn’t poison anyone to death, Shen Binnan munched on the apple without any ladylike demure.

"How’s the plan going?" Shen Binnan asked while eating the apple.

"The first step has already been taken. Ren Tianqing’s people have already come to verify if you’ve really become a vegetable. I suppose it’s confirmed by now. Heh, I bet Ren Tianqing would never guess that all the doctors in this entire hospital have been bought by your dad," Fang Yi said with a smile.

This was the first step, the Smoke Bomb had been deployed, and Ren Tianqing was convinced.

This was Fang Yi’s plan, to take advantage of this opportunity to let Shen Binnan completely retire from the scene, thereby lulling Ren Tianqing into complacency.

As Fang Yi had said before, even the shrewdest old fox has moments of arrogance, and Fang Yi had seized upon this weakness of Ren Tianqing’s, thus allowing him to execute his plan without chaos.
