Chapter 77: The Calm Days Are Over

in despair, "You wouldn't want to watch my dad beat me to death, would you"Su He only then realized that his swollen face was the work of Huo Shen Xi.Although I don't know why Huo Chenxi made a move,...He Lili turned, looking at Su He with a hint of sadness in her eyes: "This child, is mine."

Neither admitted nor denied.

But the answer is obvious.

Su He was touched by He Li Jun's gaze, her heart sinking slightly.

Is Big Brother still not accepting her

Then the child in her womb...

He Li-jun understood the doubt in her eyes, gave a wry smile, nodded slightly to her, and turned to leave, her high heels clicking on the floor.

Zhao Binru, seeing this, hurriedly bid farewell to Su He and quickly ran towards He Lijun, seeming to want to reach out and help, but he didn't know how to.

He Lijun angrily told him to leave, but he kept following her.

Su He sighed lightly and turned back to the ward.

As I passed the corridor, I could faintly hear two nurses whispering to each other.

Did you hear Last night, a woman tried to sneak into Mr. Huo's room, but as soon as she entered, she was thrown out!

"Is the ward so heavily guarded that someone could impersonate a doctor and get in this morning"

"It must have been an oversight!"

……

Su He's footsteps suddenly came to a halt. After pausing for several seconds, she continued walking forward.

Looking in the direction the nurse disappeared, Su He couldn't help but smirk.

How could someone like Huo Chenxi make such a careless mistake

Or perhaps she underestimated him.

Even though the Huo family was fighting each other fiercely, as the heir, Huo Chenxi wouldn't be without any precautions.

> On second thought, it's more likely that this morning's scene was a setup he orchestrated himself.

He deliberately relaxed his guard, showing a weakness, luring the opponent who was trying to kill him into taking the bait and providing evidence for his assassination.

Thinking about it this way, she seemed to have messed things up for him.

Before she even entered Huo Chen Xi's ward, she sensed something was amiss. She reacted instinctively, without even having time to ponder the intricacies of the situation.

However, thinking about Huo Chen Xi's expression before, it seemed like he wasn't displeased or angry after her bad deeds.

Su He shook her head, no longer thinking about it.

Finally, having completed the discharge procedures, Su He walked out of the hospital accompanied by Gu Qingcheng and Shen Zhailin. Shen Rufeng was already waiting for her at the door.

Gu Qingcheng and Shen Zhao lin sat in the driver's car, Su He got into Shen Ruifeng's car.

Watching Shen Rufeng start the car, Su He couldn't help but think of He Lijun he had seen at the hospital just now.

She was just thinking about how to phrase it when Shen Rucheng spoke first: "I'm going back to the Imperial City, leaving tomorrow."

Su He was astonished: "How come it happened so suddenly"

She had overheard her elder brother and second brother talking in the hospital room before, knowing he was going back to the Shen family, but she didn't expect it to be so sudden.

His body still needs to rest, right

"To be honest, I'd been thinking about going back before. " Shen Rufeng looked sideways at Su He. "Things are rather complicated with the Shen family. We've stayed here for over twenty years, this kind of peace...it's almost over!"

"What happened" Su He asked, looking at Shen Rufeng with concern.

Seeing Su He's puzzled expression, Shen Ruifeng paused and didn't answer her question directly. Instead, he said: "Do you know that after you went home, the family reunion only invited people from our circle, and all the staff signed a confidentiality agreement"

Su He shook her head. This was the first time she had heard of it.

"Your parents want you to integrate into the circle, but they also want to protect you, so they chose this way," Shen Rufeng sighed softly. "Not fully publicly announcing your identity is because they don't want you to be exposed too early."

"My identity is exposed, am I in danger" Su He asked instinctively.

Shen Rufeng sighed: "Twenty years ago, when you were kidnapped, it wasn't a simple accident. There are traces of the Shen family involved in this matter. Your parents were utterly disappointed, and that was also the reason they resolutely left the capital city back then."

Su He thought of the man in black who had rushed at her last time, and her heart skipped a beat: "Now that I'm back, they've come looking for me again"

"Yes, but not entirely." Shen Rufeng hadn't expected Su He to think of this layer, "Actually, after you came back, people from the Shen family haven't stopped meddling."

She was bumped by someone who took her to the village, and this time, the mysterious man in black who came specifically for her were all actions from the Shen family in the Imperial Capital.

There were even a few deployments that hadn't been implemented yet, but they detected them and quietly handled them in time.

"We've heard that Grandpa is sick." Shen Rufeng's face wore a look of sadness, her eyes drooping at the corners and her mouth unconsciously turning down. "Grandpa refused to change the family heir designation, and he even left something special for you."

When Su He went missing, she was very young and had no memory of her grandfather.

I had only heard rumors about the Shen family's only granddaughter before. Apparently, the head of the Shen family doted on his granddaughter very much and even fell ill for a while after she went missing.

"Mom and Dad know They're going back to Di Jing too" Su He really wanted to ask, did she need to go back.

Although she didn't remember much, he was still her relative.

Just like Big Brother said to her before, blood ties can't be changed.

"The Shen family is too deep, I'll go back first to investigate the situation." Shen Rufeng said, "I have four key investment projects related to the Shen family, they dare not touch me for now."

Su He heard his meaning: "You've been planning to go back and face it yourself all along"

How could this be such a coincidence The investment projects he was handling were related to the Shen family, and they were so important that the Shen family wouldn't touch him for the sake of profit.

Shen Rufeng knew that Su He was intelligent and didn't intend to hide anything from him. He nodded slightly: "My parents are willing to give in, but the other party may not believe it. To protect my family, I have to be prepared."

Su He's mind flashed with a sudden realization, as if she had understood something: "You don't want to fall in love or get married because you know what you're about to do is dangerous, right"

Shen Ruifeng's expression stiffened slightly, but then he smiled: "I just think that women outside are too much trouble, I'm too lazy to fall in love."

"What about Miss He You truly don't have any feelings for her" Su He didn't want to interfere, but thinking of the child in He Lijun's belly, she couldn't help but say, "With your abilities, if you truly dislike her and want to end her entanglement, it wouldn't be difficult, would it"

Shen Ruifeng tightened his grip on the steering wheel, feigning indifference: "I'm too lazy to bother."

Su He let out a soft sigh and tentatively said, "I just saw Ms. He at the hospital."

Shen Ruifeng forced down the urge to ask further questions and changed the subject: "I heard you went to see Huo Chenxi before you were discharged from the hospital"

Su He didn't point out the worry between his brows, and honestly nodded: "He probably ruined things again."

Shen Ruifeng hesitated for a moment after hearing her finish, then said: "It's not necessarily a bad thing, but saving his life is definitely possible."

Su He felt that there was something more to his words and asked, "This morning, were the people he brought not in the ward"

Shen Ruifeng hesitated for a moment before saying, "I don't know what he arranged secretly. Someone from the Shen family found our people and went to cause trouble for him!"

After a pause, Shen Rucheng turned to Su He: "I also can't see through Huo Chenxi's actions. The second branch of the Huo family is making frequent moves. He doesn't deal with the Huo family, but instead interferes with our affairs. What does he want!"ise.Shen Yueze finally had a chance to go back to his room.After taking a shower, I changed out of the clothes I had worn all day.Just as Shen Yueze felt he was finally clean, he was unexpectedly call...
