Chapter 339: Chapter 339 Favoring one over another, not of one’s own flesh

When Su Shiyue found Su Mu, she was already completely unconscious. Su Shiyue walked over and called her several times, but there was no response. The feeling, the state of things, reminded Su Shiyue of the first time her grandmother had fallen ill.

She couldn’t help but feel alarmed.

It turned out not to be the so-called sudden illness, nor was there any so-called hereditary factor involved. Everything was nothing more than a well-calculated, long-planned scheme.

Back when she learned that Shinian had gotten the same illness as Grandma, she cried for a long time, holding Shinian’s hand and asking why it could not have been her instead, wishing that if it were hereditary, it should have passed to her. At that time, Shinian just smiled gently,

"This illness isn’t something you can get just by wanting it; it also depends on fate."

Back then she didn’t understand, but now she was beginning to see it. From the beginning, Shinian had known, but he had told her nothing.

Although she didn’t know what Shi Lihua’s ultimate goal was, the changes over these three years had already matured Su Shiyue considerably; she could somewhat guess that over the years, Shi Lihua had been using Grandma to threaten Shinian. Now that Grandma had been moved away by him, Shi Lihua had turned to Su Mu.

If her guesses about everything were correct, the divorce initially was just a form of protection, then Shinian would definitely compromise for Su Mu as he did for Grandma.

The posture she saw in Shinian was not what Su Shiyue wanted to see. To prevent this situation, the only way now was to take Su Mu out, but she couldn’t possibly achieve that on her own.

When Wei Shaoqin walked out of the elevator after ending a day’s work, he happened to hear the receptionist answering the phone. He originally didn’t pay much attention, as the people seeking him in these past two years had increased significantly. Firstly due to the decline of the Fu Corporation, and secondly because Wei Shaoqin also wanted to strike at Shinian in the business world for Su Mu.

In two years, he had made the company prosper, and even the old man who had always been wary of him had gradually handed over several of his industries to him. The number of people calling the company to reach him was endless every day; he was too busy to cope.

However, this call successfully made Wei Shaoqin stop and slowly turn to look at the reception area.

Assistant Li Lang didn’t wait for Wei Shaoqin to speak but hurried to the reception to inquire, as he had also clearly heard what the receptionist said earlier: "Miss, I’m sorry, if it is as you say and Miss Su Mu is in danger, you should notify the police. I’m afraid there’s nothing Mr. Wei can do about this."

Li Lang asked,

"Whose call is it?"

The receptionist hadn’t expected her call to draw the boss’s attention and was slightly taken aback. However, before she could respond, Wei Shaoqin had already strode over and took the receiver from her hand to his ear:

"This is Wei Shaoqin."

Nobody around him knew who was on the other end of the line or what she was actually saying, but they could all clearly sense Wei Shaoqin’s face growing colder and colder, so cold that it was forbidding to even breathe.

From start to finish, Wei Shaoqin said only one word: "Okay."

He hung up the phone hastily and ran out of the hall at such a speed that Li Lang couldn’t keep up.

Wen Han didn’t understand Shi Lihua, nor was he familiar with her range of activities. Although Shinian had mentioned a few places, searching them one by one would be a waste of time. He called back to the police station to ask for help checking the surveillance footage, and he went directly to the nearest location to him, unfortunately finding no trace.

As he hurriedly drove to the next location, Wei Shaoqin’s call came. Wen Han initially thought to keep it to himself, but Wei Shaoqin didn’t give him time and spoke directly:

"Su Mu has been taken to Shi Lihua’s lab; I’m heading there now, and you bring people over."

Wen Han furrowed his brow:

"Are you going there by yourself?"

"I can’t wait for you."

Thinking of Su Mu being taken away by Shi Lihua, Wei Shaoqin couldn’t calm down, wishing he could immediately fly to her side to protect her properly.

Wen Han wanted to instruct him further, but Wei Shaoqin had already hung up the phone. Cursing under his breath, Wen Han threw the phone aside and quickly drove to the location Wei Shaoqin had mentioned.

When Shi Lihua returned to her office, Su Shiyue was still sitting in the same spot, continuously checking her phone. Thinking she was anxiously waiting for Fu Shinian, Shi Lihua didn’t think much about it and smiled slightly as she placed a fruit platter and a juice in front of Su Shiyue on the low table:

"Rest assured, he will come. Don’t worry."

Su Shiyue glanced at her, said nothing, put away her phone, and picked up the fresh juice in front of her but did not drink it, scoffing coldly:

"You haven’t poisoned this, have you?"

Shi Lihua’s expression changed upon hearing this:

"What do you mean? Do you think your mother would harm you?"

"Isn’t that how you harmed my brother? Both he and I are your children, can you really favor one over the other?"

"How can you and he be the same? He is the son of a scoundrel, you’re not..."

The words that slipped out of Shi Lihua’s mouth in anger left Su Shiyue completely stunned. She wanted to convince herself it was all a hallucination, or that Shi Lihua had spoken those crazy words because she wasn’t choosing her words carefully. But upon thinking about her attitudes and actions towards both Fu Shinian and herself, Su Shiyue couldn’t calm down anymore.

She looked at Shi Lihua’s slightly evasive expression:

"What did you just say?"

Shi Lihua got up, pacing uneasily. She had initially wanted to brush it off, but in the next moment, Su Shiyue shouted back at her:

"I’m asking you, what the hell did you just say!"

Turning back to look at her, as if having made up her mind, Shi Lihua said:

"Yes, you’re not biologically from the Fu family. Your father is not Fu Jingxun, your father is Yu Zhiyuan, the man I loved the most. That’s why you and Fu Shinian are different. Your mother loves you. When I left the Fu family, I wanted to take you with me. If it weren’t for that old lady who found out everything and kept you closely watched, I wouldn’t have left you behind."

Su Shiyue squinted at her:

"You’re saying, Grandmother also knew I’m not a child of the Fu family?"

"Yes, she knew." Shi Lihua smiled slightly: "After I married Fu Jingxun, I never let him touch me. He wasn’t worthy. That one accident I had with him was already more than enough for him, but I never imagined that from that one time I would conceive Fu Shinian. I never wanted to give birth to him, I..."

"Enough!" Su Shiyue’s entire body trembled, her head aching severely. She didn’t know whether it was the harsh reality that was hard to accept, or if the enclosed space was suffocating her to the extreme. She wanted to leave, so she got up from her seat. Concerned about her state, Shi Lihua called out to her. Su Shiyue stopped in her tracks at the door, scoffed coldly:

"You truly disgust me."
