Yuan Shu asked, âDo I not smile that often?â
Zhang Zhang shook his head. âThatâs different. Although you smile often, your gaze is cold. But now, when even your eyes are filled with joy, only then do you really seem happy.â
Yuan Shu nodded, as if she understood.
She had been the head of the household for so many years and had handled everything in an orderly manner. The smile on her lips had already become the facade that made her seem amiable but could also intimidate others.
Therefore, she had forgotten what a genuine smile looked like.
Yuan Shu saw vitality and free-spiritedness in Zhang Zhang. Her happiness seemed to be contagious and could make everyone around her happy. Now, Yuan Shu understood why Shi Lu only became friends with her out of everyone in the entire entertainment industry.
In a villa in Africa, the private doctor removed the bandage on Shi Xiaoâs body. The wounds on his body that couldnât scab previously because of the tropical rainforest climate had finally scabbed over. The edges of the scabs were slightly raised, and the flesh inside was growing. It seemed that his injuries were no longer a problem and wouldnât affect his movements.
The private doctor said, âBoss, with the current healing speed of the wound, it wonât affect our plans even if weâre at a high altitude. It wonât rupture. Just to be safe, we can take a plane back to the country in three days.â
Shi Xiao nodded coldly.
Ever since the Shi family found him and they came out of the tribe in the depths of the tropical rainforest, Shi Xiao could clearly feel that his wound was healing. In addition, the private doctor had been applying medicine for nearly a month. No matter how slow his recovery was, there wouldnât be that big of a negative impact.
After the private doctor finished applying the medicine, he took the medicine box and left. Zhao Cheng waited for the private doctor to leave before coming in. âYoung Master, just as you expected, as soon as the news of him returning to the country spread, everyone became impatient to take action.â
Shi Xiao sneered and put on his coat. âWhat about Yuan An?â
âMadam specifically asked Zhao Mian to conduct a thorough investigation a few days ago and investigated all the people in the company. She fired three people. Thereâs no problem with the company at the moment.â Zhao Cheng had changed the way he addressed her.
The fact that Yuan Shu had actually led Zhao Mian to investigate the company was beyond Shi Xiaoâs expectations. What surprised him even more was that the current Yuan Shu seemed to be different from the Yuan Shu he knew.
What exactly had she experienced?
âGo and get ready. Weâll be back in the country in three days.â
Zhao Cheng immediately agreed, but then he thought of something. âYoung Master, what about Miss Lin Xi?â
âLetâs bring her back together. Didnât I ask you to investigate her background? Howâs it going?â
Zhao Cheng had already prepared the information and handed the tablet to Shi Xiao. âThis is the information Zhao Mian found. In the nearby mountains, there was indeed a missing girl who looked similar to Miss Lin Xi. She should be Miss Lin Xi. However, thereâs no one else in Miss Lin Xiâs family. Her only kin, her grandma, passed away three months ago.â
Shi Xiao flipped through all the information, but there was nothing suspicious about her background.
Lin Xiâs eyes, which were always like those of a frightened deer, surfaced in Shi Xiaoâs mind. Even if it was to repay her kindness, he should be responsible for this girl.
âInform Zhao Mian to prepare a residence and necessary supplies for Lin Xi. Since thereâs no one else in her family, she can stay in the Shi familyâs home.â
Zhao Cheng was obviously a little hesitant. If it was a month ago, he, who didnât know much about the Shi familyâs current situation, naturally hoped that Young Master would divorce Yuan Shu as soon as he returned. But now, he knew that Yuan Shu had done so many things for the Shi family and had taught the three young masters diligently, so he slowly accepted this Madam of the Shi family.
Hence, he asked, âIf we bring A/Iiss Lin Xi back, what about Madam?â
This was also what Shi Xiao was worried about. Based on what he knew about Yuan Shu in the past, if they were to get a divorce, she would definitely cry and cause a scene. This would make things easier to resolve. However, Yuan Shu was calm and composed now. What excuse should he use to divorce her?
In fact, he was even looking forward to Yuan Shuâs reaction when she saw Lin Xi..n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
