Ye Ziyu sat by the hospital bed, her head resting on the edge. Being able to reach Di Mingjue so closely brought her some peace of mind.
She had barely closed her eyes when Shen Lin entered from outside.
Ye Chenhan placed a hand in front of his lips, his gaze signaling for him to speak quietly.
"Is Madam asleep?" Shen Lin asked as he approached, noticing Ye Ziyu's closed eyes.
Ye Chenhan nodded, pulling on Shen Lin's sleeve. Shen Lin cooperated, and they both walked out of the ward.
"What's the specific situation?" Ye Chenhan asked.
When they were in the ward in front of Ye Ziyu, he dared not ask for too many details, and Ye Ziyu had intentionally concealed things. He was still in a state of confusion.
Could he tell him?
Shen Lin was conflicted.
"Don't you trust me?" Ye Chenhan questioned with dissatisfaction.
As members of the Ye family, although he and Ye Ziyu were half-siblings, Ye Chenhan had treated Ye Ziyu as his own sister from the day she entered the Ye family.
Now that something had happened to her, was he, as her brother, not allowed to know?
"Assistant Shen, you understand the current situation best. With Zi Yu being a weak woman, do you think she can handle the current predicament?"
Shen Lin could no longer remain tight-lipped. "Fourth Young Master, I don't know how to tell you the specific situation. But the fact that our President Di was poisoned is related to Gu Corporation."
"Gu Corporation?"
"Yes, before you arrived, I encountered Gu Xiukai, who was injured, on the way. After bringing him to the hospital, he asked us to find his phone, saying that the contents inside would be helpful to us. On my way back with the phone, I ran into Gu Xiuyu. After a collision with a man, the phone disappeared. Now, even Gu Xiukai has vanished."
Listening to Shen Lin's narration, Ye Chenhan's head began to spin. How could the Gu family be so persistent and bothersome? Their appearance always brought bad things!
Speak of the devil.
Gu Xiuyu emerged from the elevator, looking around. His gaze settled on them, paused for a few seconds, and then he walked in their direction.
Ye Chenhan was not one to back down. He turned to face Gu Xiuyu, calmly awaiting his approach.
"Fourth Young Master, what a coincidence. You're at the hospital so late?" Gu Xiuyu's eyes scanned both of them.
"Do you not know why I'm at the hospital, President Gu?"
"I know?"
Seeing Gu Xiuyu playing dumb, Ye Chenhan became instantly enraged. His words were devoid of any pleasantries.
"Since President Gu doesn't know, why are you here? Are you here to gather information, or to continue with your sinister schemes to harm?"
Gu Xiuyu frowned, his amiable expression turning unpleasant. Hearing Ye Chenhan's unguarded words, he felt a sense of unease.
Had he already suspected him?
"Looking at your expression, President Gu, it seems I've hit the mark?"
"Fourth Young Master, you may be misunderstanding me. I came to visit my father; his ward is downstairs. I came here because I met Assistant Shen in the lobby, and I was just curious to see what was happening. If you don't believe me, you can ask Assistant Shen if I'm lying."
The spotlight was instantly cast upon Shen Lin.
The encounter downstairs was true, but it couldn't prove that his purpose for being here was innocent.
Ye Chenhan let out a cold snort and waved his arm, cutting off Gu Xiuyu's words. "Don't try to play innocent. Who knows if your encounter downstairs was deliberately arranged?"
"If Fourth Young Master insists on thinking so, then I have nothing more to say." Gu Xiuyu ceased arguing with him.
"You don't have nothing to say; you just can't prove your innocence. I advise you to hand over the antidote, or we will show no mercy once we find evidence!" Ye Chenhan stepped forward agitatedly, appearing as though he would physically force a confession from Gu Xiuyu.
