The security officers dispersed the crowd of reporters. Shen Zihao frowned and glanced at Qiao Lian. Then he gave a cold humph and headed into the VIP ward.
He had brought breakfast.
Qiao Lian hung her head when she saw that. Following him, she asked, “Why are you here?”
He sneered, “All you celebrities, you’re a trending topic even if you do so much as sneeze. It’s tough not to know.”
Although his words were hard to stomach, there was genuine concern in his tone.
Ignoring his negative tone, she said, “Thank you.”
He halted and replied, “Don’t thank me. You should thank that silly girl Xia Nuannuan. When she saw the news, she called me and insisted that I should come. She said you guys may not be able to get breakfast. That’s just creating unnecessary worries. Fortunately, I’m here, otherwise you really would have no breakfast!”
Of course, he wouldn’t have turned up if he really hadn’t wanted to.
Qiao Lian took a deep breath.
She continued to follow Shen Zihao.
He halted suddenly after a couple of steps and said, “Hey, you normally go on and on talking non-stop, why are you so down today? I’m really not used to it.”
She gave a bitter laugh and replied, “If this happened to your family, would you be happy?”
“But still, why this mournful look?! No matter how big of a disaster it was, your parents have died, what else do they want? Ultimately, all they want is money, isn’t it? Just give them some money and the problem will be resolved.”
Qiao Lian cast her gaze downwards at his words.
She knew that she and Shen Liangchuan were husband and wife, of course.
Reasonably, there was nothing wrong with her using Shen Liangchuan’s money.
But still…
It wasn’t a matter of reaching an agreement with one or two people. There was a crowd of them…
If they wanted a compensation, it would end up being a very hefty sum.
There was no way she had that sort of money to cough up. And if Shen Liangchuan were to finance this, it would probably amount to half of the Shen family’s assets.
How could she possibly even ask for such help?
She bit her lip and kept silent as she entered the VIP ward with Shen Zihao.
Shen Liangchuan was still unconscious.
Xia Yehua had fallen asleep on the sofa from exhaustion.
Qiao Lian had no appetite for breakfast as well.
She took out her cell phone and followed the development of the news.
The number 1 trending topic was #Mrs.ShenAndTheSeventeenLives.
Weibo, as if part of a conspiracy, claimed that at the time, the property market had been undergoing a recession and if the Qiao family had built that building, they would have made a loss.
Hence, the Qiao family had chosen to put all their stakes in that one throw.
They had used discounted steel bars in place of normal steel bars and added more stories to the building, but the staircase could not take the strain. Finally it collapsed, killing 17 people and injuring 45 others.
Eventually, the Qiao family declared bankruptcy and the Qiao couple committed suicide, but before that they diverted all their money.
It also claimed that the diverted money had been transferred to Qiao Lian and her brother, who had been living the good life in Beijing all these years.
It went as far as to say that Qiao Lian, Mrs. Shen, was Best Actor Shen’s sugar mummy.
That was why Best Actor Shen was so wealthy!
In the beginning, after Best Actor Shen got married, they decided to keep the marriage a secret because they didn’t wish to expose Mrs. Shen’s true identity.
In the end, they had to call for a press conference because they were cornered and had no choice.
They must have thought themselves so lucky when they held the press conference, but unexpectedly someone recognized them.
Finally, the article expressed: [I wonder how they can sleep at night.]
