Chapter 1547: Chapter 1540: The Culprit Behind the Scenes (6)

But when Lu Weixi saw Qin Zhiyou come in, she quickly composed herself. "Mom, don’t worry. After my stitches are removed, our family of three will bring the child back to visit."

Qin Zhiyou had actually overheard her saying she wanted to see the child earlier, and he wanted the same. Entering the room, he said with a smile, "Mom, don’t be anxious. I think I can arrange the hospital transfer by tomorrow. If everything goes smoothly, you’ll be able to see Xixi and the child by tomorrow evening."

Hearing this, Lu Weixi’s eyes lit up. "Really?"

Qin Zhiyou smiled. "Of course, it’s true. So you need to take good care of yourself. Tomorrow, I’ll arrange the vehicle and team to transfer you to another hospital."

If it weren’t for the fact that Lu Weixi had just given birth, suffered injuries before, and that it was getting late, Qin Zhiyou would have preferred to bring her back immediately. After all, this was just a county-level hospital, with relatively average medical conditions and environment. Naturally, he wanted Lu Weixi and the child to receive better care.

Lu Weixi understood his intention and quickly nodded, speaking a few more words with her mother. "Mom, don’t worry too much about me. I’m doing fine. Take good care of yourself and wait to see your little grandchild."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Zhiyou sat down beside her bed, clearly wanting to say something, but hesitating. It was Lu Weixi who spoke first. "If there’s something on your mind, just say it."

Qin Zhiyou finally nodded. "This matter might have started because of me. The investigation so far shows that Liu Yiyi is indeed real. And Qin Zhizha and Cai Yiren have also been brought in for questioning. The third branch of the family appears to be involved."

Lu Weixi was not entirely surprised. Earlier, the two interrogators had specifically asked her about Qin Zhiyou’s romantic history, which had already given her a general sense of the situation. What she hadn’t expected was the officially corroborated confirmation that Qin Zhiyou hadn’t been unfaithful. It was widely known that testimony legally entails responsibility. He had no reason to lie about this.

That meant, at least for the past five years of their marriage, he had truly been faithful to her.

The thought made her genuinely happy. "It’s alright. The Hanhai Family is massive and complex—such things are inevitable."

Qin Zhiyou paused for a moment. "There’s more. Zhao Zihao has also been brought in for questioning. His identity—it turns out he’s the Director of Zhongtian Steel. When you went missing and Hanhai fell into crisis, he was the first to step in and take advantage of the situation. His speed surpassed even the second and third branches, as well as everyone else. Moreover..."

Qin Zhiyou paused again before continuing. "He’s actually the son of that woman my father was involved with, conceived with her ex-husband."

Hearing the name Zhao Zihao, Lu Weixi was visibly startled. Clearly, she hadn’t expected this layer of the truth. While she was somewhat surprised by the mention of his name, she wasn’t entirely shocked. Instead, she asked, "What about my mom?"

She was worried that if Zhao Zihao’s initial attempt failed, he might target her mother next.

"Don’t worry; it’s all been arranged." After the incident with Lu Weixi, Qin Zhiyou had hired a caregiver to watch over her mother 24/7 under the pretext of taking care of her health and daily life, but in reality, it was for protection. "But since the kidnappers haven’t been caught yet and the mastermind is still under investigation, we need to remain vigilant."

Moreover, given how the opposing side had orchestrated such a massive operation, clearly intending to deal a heavy blow to Hanhai, they wouldn’t let this opportunity slip away. Though Qin Zhiyou was currently by Lu Weixi’s side, his team at Hanhai was still on high alert.

Part of the reason he wanted to get back sooner was also because of this. Some matters were better handled by his own presence.

However, the idyllic plan didn’t match the cruel reality. By nightfall, things had already gone awry...
