Chapter 521: Suicide
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It did not matter if Duan Jia did not say who that acquaintance was. When she found Chi Ling, she naturally had a way to ask everything she wanted to know.
Seeing that everything was about to surface, even Shi Man could not help but feel a little excited on the way to the training institution.
She really wanted to see the true face of this teacher who was very good at controlling people.
The car drove to the congested traffic intersection. There were dozens of cars waiting in front. Shi Man hated wasting time in traffic.
She remembered that there was a small path that could lead to that institution. On the way, she would pass by the vicinity of He Man Entertainment, so she quickly turned the steering wheel and pressed it against the hood of the car behind. She stepped on the accelerator and jumped onto the pedestrian road beside her without hesitation. She turned into the alley behind and disappeared without a trace before anyone could react.
When she was about to reach He Man Entertainment, the traffic became congested again.
Shi Man remembered that when her brother chose the location of the company, he deliberately avoided the roadz where the traffic peaked. He gave up on the most prosperous area and chose a slightly remote place.
In Shi He’s own words, this would make it easier for him to rush home for dinner.
However, for some reason, the road ahead was even more blocked than the crossroads just now. After more than ten minutes, the car did not move at all.
Shi Man found it strange. Just as she was about to call Sean to ask about his situation, an unfamiliar number called first.
Shi Man suddenly had a bad feeling. She frowned and picked up the phone, her face tense. “Hello? Who are you?”
A noisy voice came from the other end of the phone, but soon, a calm male voice pressed against the cell phone. He raised his voice and tried to make her hear him better. “Hello, is this Madam Shi Man? I’m the police. Your brother, Shi He, just committed suicide by jumping off a building. He has been sent to the hospital. May I confirm if you and Mr. Shi He are siblings?”
“What did you say?” Shi Man suddenly tightened her grip on the steering wheel, and her hands and feet turned cold in an instant. She seemed to have suddenly lost her ability to understand. The words “jumped off a building and committed suicide” were still repeating in her mind, but she could not understand the police’s words no matter what.
The police officer softened his tone and said, “I’m sorry, your brother just committed suicide by jumping off a building. We’ve already arranged a rescue operation at the scene. There was also a fire air bag set up under the building. He’s already been sent to the central hospital. You’re the emergency contact on his phone. Can you inform the other family members to go to the hospital?”
“Okay.” Shi Man hung up the phone with trembling hands.
An ear-piercing whistle kept coming from behind. She looked up in frustration and realized that the congested intersection had become clear. There were no cars lined up in front of her.
She called Shi Ke with one hand and turned the steering wheel with the other. She took a deep breath and tried her best to calm down.
In the hospital, the cold surgical light hung high above. The glaring red light became everyone’s hope outside the operating theater.
As long as this lamp was not extinguished, Shi He had a chance of survival.
Shen Xian sat on the chair and was already sobbing. Shi Zhong hugged her with heartache and glanced in the direction of the operating lights from time to time.
The brothers of the Shi family stopped smiling, especially Shi Mu. He had the best relationship with Shi He. When he suddenly heard the news of Shi He jumping off the building, he almost fell down the stairs.
Why would Shi He commit suicide out of the blue?
He was a top actor in the entertainment industry, and now he was running his own company. Everything was developing in a better direction. He had no reason to commit suicide.
“Could it be that someone is threatening Third Brother!” Shi Mu racked his brains and could only think of this reason.
Shi Zhong’s expression was dark, and it was unknown what he was thinking. His gaze gently swept around and finally landed on Shi Ke. “Where did Manman go? Isn’t she the first person here?”
“Manman took a call and left first. She said that she would be back soon.” Shi Ke was afraid that his father would criticize Shi Man at this moment. After explaining, he quickly changed the topic. “Dad, I’ve already sent someone to check Xiao He’s company accounts. There’s indeed a problem.”
Shi Zhong’s eyes narrowed as he said coldly, “Tell me about it.”
Shi Ke suddenly found it difficult to say it, but at this point, he could only say it openly. He said with a conflicted expression, “Lin Yue seems to have transferred all the money from Xiao He’s company. Not long ago, she became the largest shareholder of He Man Entertainment. Her status even exceeded Xiao He’s.”
“Lin Yue.” Shi Zhong clenched his fists and snorted. “If the Lin family dares to attack my son, I won’t let them off!”
“Dad! Do you want to bring Lin Yue over now? 1 suspect that Third Brother’s suicide must have something to do with her!” Shi Mu widened his red eyes and roared in the corridor. He was furious.
Shi Mu was a little arbitrary, but it had to be said that under certain circumstances, his intuition had always been very accurate..
