"No," Shen Jiao said impatiently. "Why is it always me whenever something goes wrong at home? Have I never done a single good thing in your eyes?"
"Have you ever done anything good?!"
A father knows his daughter best. Shen Tianhong could tell what Shen Jiao was like at a glance.
He was so angry that his head ached. He wished he could slap her awake!
She could even do such a thing, and the old master had doted on her so much before.
Shen Jiao was stubborn. "Anyway, I said I didn't do it, so I didn't. If you have the guts, call the police and have me arrested."
"Why are you so agitated?" The second wife felt sorry for Shen Jiao. "Don't you trust Jiao Jiao?"
"This is not about trust. It's about whether she did it or not. Do you think Shi Wan doesn't have the ability to save a person?"
Shen Jiao didn't care at all. At worst, she would just let one of them die.
Then no one would be able to find out it was her.
"Shen Jiao!"
Shen Tianhong was almost furious. "We haven't gotten our share of the family fortune yet. The old master can't die. Do you understand?!"
How could she be so indifferent at such a time?
"Got it."
If the old master couldn't die, then she would kill Shi Wan.
Shen Tianhong saw what was on her mind but didn't stop her. It would be good if Shi Wan could be taken care of by her hand.
It would be worth all the shares he had used to save her. It was time for her to repay him this time.
In the doctor's office, Shi Wan saved the recording she had just made and then left the hospital.
Shen Siyan didn't directly ask the servants at home to investigate. Instead, he secretly sent his subordinates to look into it.
Some clues had been erased, and they couldn't find out many things.
"Baby."
Shi Wan pushed open the door of the study. The man at the desk got up and walked towards her.
"How's it going?"
"Such things are very common in the Shen family. It will take some time to find evidence against Shen Jiao."
She was silent for a moment. Suddenly, she remembered that the system had rewarded her with many things when she saved someone in City S before.
"Then you keep looking. I'll go to the kitchen and have a look."
"Okay."
Shi Wan went to the kitchen. After making sure no one was around, she entered the space.
Sure enough, there was a truth - telling talisman.
System: "Host, the old master of the Shen family is fated this way. Even if you save him, he won't live for many years."
The implication was that she shouldn't waste these things. They didn't know if there would be such things next time.
"He is my grandfather."
This sentence silenced the system.
Shi Wan took the talisman out and planned to find an opportunity to secretly stick it on Shen Jiao.
The good thing about this talisman was that once it was stuck on a person, it would immediately merge into the person's body and couldn't be detected. The person under its effect could only tell the truth no matter what they said.
The only drawback was that the effect only lasted for ten minutes.
Shi Wan sat downstairs waiting for the man. Sure enough, she saw him come down after a while.
"Why are you sitting here?"
Shen Siyan frowned and stepped forward to pick up the little girl sitting on the carpet and hold her in his arms.
"Be careful not to catch a cold."
"It's hot."
She coughed lightly. She couldn't very well say that she had accidentally slipped while studying in the space just now, could she?
"Still, you can't sit on the floor."
"Got it."
The man saw her perfunctory attitude and felt a strong sense of displeasure in his eyes.
It seemed that in the future, he would have to have all the floors in their living places covered with carpets.
"I'm going to the hospital later. I've had the people at the hospital prepare everything. We can go and have the operation right away."
"Okay."
At the hospital.
Shen Jiao was sitting bored on the chair outside the ICU, playing with her phone until Shi Wan and Shen Siyan came.
There were many unfamiliar people in the corridor. Only one or two of them looked a little familiar.
Shen Siyan said that these people used to live in the old mansion and had moved out later. They had met once at their wedding.
Shi Wan nodded. Before she could say anything, a voice of accusation rang out.
"Oh, I must say you young people are really something. You let the old master fall at home and come to visit so late. Don't tell me you're just going through the motions?"
Another woman chimed in. "That's right, Siyan. As the elder brother, how could you let Shen Jiao, a girl, stay here alone?"
Shen Siyan said calmly, "You all came quite early too."
The faces of these people changed slightly, looking a bit embarrassed.
"Isn't Shen Jiao the old master's granddaughter? Isn't it only natural for her to stay here? It's better than some people who just show up now, right?"
Shi Wan couldn't stand others talking about Shen Siyan.
"Is this how a daughter - in - law of the Shen family should behave?"
The woman snorted. She didn't dare to openly target Shen Siyan, but was she afraid of a mere Shi Wan?
So what if she was a divine doctor?
So what if she was a hacker?
Since she had married into the Shen family, they, as elders, had the right to teach her the rules.
"Why don't you, Third Aunt, tell us what the rules of the Shen family are? Or you can show us an example?"
"Shen Siyan, you..."
"What? You can't do it yourself but expect my wife to? You're thinking too much."
"You!"
"Okay, Siyan. Your Third Aunt was just joking. Don't take it to heart. Let's go and check on the old master."
A man anxiously looked inside, his eyes shifting. "I heard the old master can't be saved?"
"Who said that?"
The man glanced at Shen Jiao. "The situation is so serious. Isn't that the case?"
"Everyone, rest assured. The old master will live a long life."
"Don't be so sure of yourself." The woman said sarcastically. "Even if you know a bit of medicine, so what? Even the hospital can't do anything. Don't end up embarrassing yourself."
Shi Wan glanced at her. "It seems you really don't want the old master to wake up?"
"Can't I just tell the truth?"
"Since I dared to say it, I'm naturally confident."
Several people in the crowd sneered disdainfully.
"Miss Shi Wan, everything is ready. We can start the operation now."
A doctor led his team and walked up to Shi Wan.
"Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. It's our duty to save people."
Moreover, they weren't the ones performing the operation this time. They could even watch Shi Wan's operation skills. No matter how hard it was, it was worth it!
After these people left, a middle - aged man came to his senses. "Siyan, you used the power of the Shen family to help her, right? This might make people think that our Shen family is arrogant..."
"This is all Baby's own strength."
The man was at a loss for words. Seeing that the others also looked skeptical.
Anyway, it had come to this point. They could only wait for the result.
If the old master of the Shen family really died, their share would definitely be less. If he didn't die, they could still fight for more in the future.
Now, some of these people hoped the old master would wake up, while others hoped he would just die. Everyone had their own agenda.
They followed Shen Siyan all the way to outside the operating room.
"Baby, don't have any psychological pressure. Even if..."
"Trust me."
"Okay."
Shen Siyan hugged her, looking deeply into her eyes, and nodded.
The light in the operating room came on. Everyone was anxiously waiting outside.
Shen Jiao was sitting indifferently. Whether the old master died or not didn't matter much to her. Anyway, no one knew when she drugged him, and there were no surveillance cameras.
Unless there was a ghost, no one would be able to find out it was her.
Shen Tianhong came over with the second wife and some other strangers.
"Have they gone in?"
"Yes, it's been a while."
