Chapter 274: So Be It

What the system had warned about might be this. As for the Shen family, the incident didn't happen at the Shen residence but to Grandpa Shen.

"Come on, let's go home first."

Just as Shi Wan was about to pull out of his embrace, the man tightened his hold on her, as if afraid she would disappear.

"Shen Siyan..."

Shen Siyan bent down and scooped her up in his arms. "I'll take you home."

Shi Wan reached out and stroked the tear mole at the corner of his eye. "Don't worry. I'm fine, aren't I?"

"I know."

This time they were lucky, but who knew what would happen tomorrow?

In the past, he never worried about such things. But now that he had Shi Wan, he was constantly on edge.

When they got home, Shen Siyan carried her to the bed and didn't do anything else.

"Shen Siyan."

"Hmm?"

"Look up."

Hearing her words, Shen Siyan looked at her.

The woman's warm and sweet kiss landed on the corner of his lips and then continued.

"It's okay. I'm here."

She propped herself up, slipped her delicate hand into his clothes, lowered her head and captured his lips, as well as the tear mole at the corner of his eye.

Shen Siyan couldn't help tightening his hold on her. His eyes were as deep as the night, and his low voice escaped. "Sweetheart."

She responded in a low voice. Her burning kiss landed on his prominent Adam's apple. The man couldn't help but let out a sexy and charming groan from his lips.

"Little vixen!"

He flipped her over and pinned her beneath him. Eager kisses fell densely on every part of her he could reach, and finally he blocked the words that hadn't had time to escape from her lips.

...

After an intimate encounter, Shen Siyan held her in his arms. The woman in his arms mumbled something before losing consciousness.

"It wasn't an accident."

"What?" Shen Siyan narrowed his sharp eyes. "Sweetheart?"

After making sure she was sound asleep, Shen Siyan got out of bed.

"Feng Tong, have someone thoroughly investigate what happened tonight."

Not an accident?

Who on earth wanted to harm the young mistress?

Or was it aimed at him?

"Yes, sir."

Feng Tong was woken up in the early morning. He listened respectfully to the call on the phone. Fortunately, he had a good temper and no morning grumpiness. Otherwise, anyone else would have been scolded to death.

Was the sir investigating this matter instead of staying in the boudoir at this time?

Could it be...

Feng Tong didn't dare to delay and quickly had someone investigate the matter.

...

Due to the accident at the scene, the piano competition didn't continue. They only said they would reschedule it.

The excuse given was that the equipment was old and it was normal for it to collapse.

This excuse was dealt with by Shen Siyan before it even reached Shi Wan's ears.

Shi Wan was lying limp on the sofa, half - closing her eyes like a noble Persian cat.

"How's the investigation going?"

Li Si on the other end of the phone said, "Boss, someone has already taken care of it over there. We still don't know who it is."

Shi Wan was silent for a while. Seeing the man coming downstairs, she said, "Got it. Let's leave this matter as it is for now."

"Did you handle what happened yesterday?"

Shen Siyan stepped forward and kissed her. "It was me. How could I not handle such a thing?"

"What about Shen Zhengxu..."

"Don't worry. I've already had someone block the news. No one will know."

It was about her. Even if it was known, so what?

He would just deal with Shen Zhengxu earlier.

But no one who dared to bully her could be let off!

"That's good."

"Sweetheart, how many looks of disdain have you endured because of my reputation outside?"

"No. Who's been talking nonsense in your ear?" Seeing his expression, Shi Wan's heart softened instantly. "I know your goodness. Others don't need to know."

The man lowered his head and smiled gently. "Okay."

Shi Wan thought that with Shen Siyan's looks, even men would like him.

He was so charming, especially the tear mole at the corner of his eye, which was even more alluring when he was aroused.

It was easy for people to get lost in it.

"Why is my little darling so good?"

She couldn't help but hold his face and kiss him.

The man grabbed her hand, his eyes burning. "Do you want to continue?"

Shi Wan immediately pretended to be dead.

"Shall we go see Grandpa later?"

Shen Siyan held her and kissed her for a while before speaking.

His fingertips gently wiped the moist and charming lips, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down involuntarily. He wanted her even more.

"Okay."

As soon as the words fell, Shi Wan felt her body lift off the ground. She was picked up.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing that they were going upstairs, Shi Wan struggled restlessly.

"Didn't you say okay?"

"Yes."

She didn't notice anything wrong. It was too early to go see Grandpa, wasn't it?

Didn't he say they would go later?

"If you said yes, that's enough."

Shi Wan was confused. She grabbed the door frame. "It seems like we're not on the same page. Wait a minute."

"We are." Afraid of hurting her if he used too much force, Shen Siyan simply pinned her against the door. "Since you want to do it here, I'll do as you wish."

Shi Wan: "......?"

...

At the hospital.

Knowing that Shi Wan wasn't hurt, Shen Zhengxu had someone handle the follow - up and didn't care anymore.

He didn't expect that the person he had instructed would come to him.

At this moment, the two of them were outside the hospital. The man was shrinking back timidly. "Mr. Shen, now that place has been sealed off. The people in charge have been implicated, and someone is thoroughly investigating this matter. Our previous excuse might..."

"What are you afraid of? Even if you can't be in charge of this matter anymore, the money I gave you is enough for you to live the rest of your life. Isn't it better to find a good place to live?"

"This... It's not about the money. It's about our future and where we can stay." The man told him the whole story.

Shen Zhengxu's face darkened a bit. "It's just Shi Wan. Couldn't you just find an excuse to cover it up? How could it turn out like this?"

"Mr. Shen, does she have some background? It's not that easy to cover it up now."

"Okay. Tell those people not to worry. I'll handle this matter properly."

Fortunately, he had connections above. Otherwise, this matter would have been a bit troublesome to handle.

Shi Wan had so many identities. He had long expected someone to investigate, but he didn't expect them to be so serious. He thought it was just a formality.

Shen Zhengxu glanced at the hospital, sent a message to the contact on his phone, and then turned around and left.

When Shi Wan and Shen Siyan came in the afternoon, Grandpa had just woken up.

"Siyan, you also have shares in the company. Why don't you just go to work in the company? You'll have to face it sooner or later." Grandpa's complexion wasn't very good. "As for the others, I'll find a way to appease them."

"We'll talk about it later."

Grandpa Shen sighed. It seemed that Shen Siyan wasn't interested in these things at all, and he didn't trust the others in the family.

"Grandpa, haven't you had a good rest recently?"

Shi Wan appropriately changed the topic. Grandpa Shen's expression did look not very good.

It was as if...

Shi Wan frowned and stepped forward to feel Grandpa's pulse. A few seconds later, her expression changed drastically.

"Grandpa, has anyone suspicious come to see you recently?"

"No." Grandpa Shen roughly guessed that something was wrong. "I just woke up recently. I don't know what happened before, but recently... No suspicious person has come to my ward."

"He's been poisoned."

"Poisoned?" A sharp look flashed in Shen Siyan's eyes. "What's going on?"
