Chapter 955 - The Benefits She Gained

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Seeing that her daughter was already so obedient and sensible, Madam Yue felt gratified and heartache. “No, no. As long as you recuperate well and get well soon, I have nothing else to ask for.”

***

At the same time, Yue Xiu entered Gu Jingyuan’s pharmaceutical company.

Gu Jingyuan could not reject Old Madam Yue’s arrangements.

She knocked on Gu Jingyuan’s office door, but no one responded for a long time.

Seeing Gu Jingyuan’s assistant walk past, she asked, “Where’s Gu Jingyuan?”

“I’m sorry, Miss Yue. Doctor Gu has gone to the laboratory and shouldn’t be around today. I’ve arranged an office for you here. Just let us know if you need anything.” The assistant was very polite.

However, Yue Xiu wanted to see Gu Jingyuan. Without him around, she would not be able to see him or learn about the core materials of the company. What was the point?

“When will he be back?”

“I’m not too sure about that. I only know that Doctor Gu is especially busy every day, and I can’t grasp his entire schedule.”

Yue Xiu had no choice but to leave. Before she left, she said, “Alright, if he comes, call me.”

Yue Feng sat in front of Old Madam Yue.

Old Madam Yue said earnestly, “Is Xiao Yu’s injury really that serious?”

“For now.” Yue Feng was also frowning.

“How much does this have to do with Shi Jin?” Old Madam Yue suddenly asked.

Yue Feng was stunned. “It shouldn’t have anything to do with Shi Jin, right?”

“Why wouldn’t it? I’ve heard that she was in France at the time. Think about it. Does this goddaughter of yours really not want anything from our family?”

“I believe she’s not like that. Besides, it won’t do her any good,” Yue Feng said seriously.

“Whether there are any benefits is from her perspective, not yours! If anything happens to Xiao Yu, you will dote on Shi Jin even more in the future! The benefits she gets are countless! Think about it carefully!”

Yue Feng felt that he could not continue chatting with his mother and said, “Shi Jin wouldn’t. Mom, I still have something to do. I’ll go back first.”

Seeing him leave, Old Madam Yue was very angry. “Your wife is never wrong. Shi Jin is never wrong. I’m the only one who’s wrong!”

Yue Feng was long gone. He could not hear her.

***

Although Madam Yue and Yue Feng did not say it explicitly, Shi Jin knew that it was not appropriate for her to come.

It was not even appropriate for her to call.

The opposition from Yue Yu was too strong. Her fate with the Yue family was pretty much over.

Even Yue Lanchen’s worldview was still in the stage of collapse.

***

Yue Yu was still recuperating in the hospital.

Her emotions were very bad for recuperation.

Both the nurse and the doctor faced her carefully, not daring to anger her in any way.

“Where’s Charles? Why isn’t he here yet?” Yue Yu asked.

The nurse who took care of her was specially hired by Madam Yue and had a very good attitude. “Mr. Charles came over just now, but left after receiving a call. We don’t know anything.”

“Tell him to come at once!”

“But we don’t have his number either,” the nurse whispered. Besides, who would dare rush Charles?

“Okay, you’re not needed here anymore. Get out.”

As the nurse left, she secretly rolled her eyes. If it weren’t for Madam Yue who was willing to pay and was nice to everyone, no one would be willing to take care of this arrogant and lawless young lady.

Charles was in front of Old Madam Yue when he received the call from Yue Yu.

He spoke briefly and stood up. “Grandma, I’ll go over and see Xiao Yu first.”

“Go.” Old Madam Yue waved a weary hand.

When they reached the ward, Yue Yu didn’t look happy. Charles said gently, “What’s the matter? Did the nurses upset you again?”

“Where have you been?” Yue Yu sounded very worried and impatient.

“I went to see Grandma, she asked me to find out more about your accident. And to keep investigating.”

Yue Yu panicked a little. “Haven’t we already dealt with those who are incompetent? Why are we still investigating?”

“She’s just asking, as a matter of routine. As well as worrying about you, she’s worried that someone has something against Lanchen. And she’s asking a lot about him.”

Yue Yu’s fingers clenched as she listened. “What else did she ask?”

“It’s mainly about you and Lanchen. She’s concerned about you and your brother,” Charles said. “Don’t overthink it.”

“Did you give her all the information?”

“Yeah. She also said we had to keep looking into this. We can’t just let it go. She’d investigate the whole thing herself if she had to.”

When Charles finished, he saw that Yue Yu was still lost in thought. Her eyes were blank and frightened.

“Xiao Yu? Xiao Yu?”

Yue Yu recovered and swallowed. “What else is there to find out and to follow?”

Yue Yu had never felt that her grandmother was very concerned about her.

For as long as she could remember, she knew that because her grandmother and mother were not on very good terms, she and Yue Lanchen spent much less time visiting Old Madam Yue than Yue Xiu and the others.

She did not care that much about her and her brother.

She was actually making such a big deal out of this incident. Was she…

Yue Yu shuddered at the possibility.

Could it be that Old Madam Yue knew that she was not her biological granddaughter, so she had doubts about her?

The more she thought about it, the more suspicious she became.

Recalling Old Madam Yue’s usual attitude towards her, she became even more certain of her thoughts.

“Xiao Yu, if Grandma wants to investigate, let her. It’ll be good for us to find out.” Charles had no idea what Yue Yu was thinking.

In his heart, this girl was the most gentle and kind.

“Yeah, let her investigate,” Yue Yu whispered.

“That’s what I mean. What if Shi Jin really did it?” Charles had a bad impression of Shi Jin because of Yue Yu.

Every time, he would hear bad things about Shi Jin from Yue Yu. It had already become a conditioned reflex.

“I heard that Shi Jin is going to hold a concert and release a new song. In that case, can’t she just do those things properly? Why must she fight with you?”

Yue Yu thought, “Another concert and a new song?”

She didn’t know how successful Shi Jin would be this time, but she knew that Shi Jin was about to become a bigger threat to her.

She couldn’t just sit back and do nothing!

***

Because she had to prepare for the concert, Shi Jin had been quite busy recently.

Finding the right venue, choosing the right songs, practicing her songs, and working out were all her priorities.

After all a concert usually took at least two hours. The physical effort required the singer to train and prepare long in advance.
