From Sidekick to Bigshot Novel - Chapter 959
Chapter 959: Becoming A Suspect
Why were the two of them so stubborn?!
As Master Zhai’s persuasion was not effective, he could only settle for the next best thing: “Then your bodyguards must be doubled. This time, they will be following you closely. Even if you’re going indoors and even if you’re talking to people you’re close to.”
Even without Qin Hongzhi’s incident, Master Zhai intended to allocate more bodyguards to Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling.
At the Wen Residence, Jian Yiling’s bodyguards were guarding outside the room. However, the dangerous person was Jian Yiling’s cousin. This meant that when someone was crazy, they were truly capable of doing anything.
Master Zhai would not allow for something like that to happen again.
“Okay,” Zhai Yunsheng agreed to Master Zhai’s request. Then, Zhai Yunsheng glanced at Jian Yiling before he said: “I will request a leave of absence for your university. In addition, you should accompany me to work and deal with matters inside my company.”
“Okay,” Jian Yiling replied. After all, her university work was not important.
Then, Jian Yiling asked Master Zhai: “Grandpa, could you send me more information about what happened to the Qin family in the past few days?”
“Of course.”
The word ‘Grandpa’ made Master Zhai’s heart burst with joy.
If it weren’t for the current situation, Master Zhai was ready to open champagne to celebrate this accomplishment.
Master Zhai ordered his men to closely watch the Qin family’s every move.
However, the Qin family had been very cautious in dealing with the matter of Qin Hongzhi’s death. Therefore, even the Zhai family was unable to obtain a lot of useful information.
Qin Hongzhi died three days ago.
He died an hour after Jian Yiling’s medicine was delivered.
However, no one knew when he ate the medicine Jian Yiling sent over.
This was the second batch of medicine sent to Qin Hongzhi by Jian Yiling.
The first batch of medicine helped to alleviate Qin Hongzhi’s condition.
After that, the second batch of medicine had been adjusted and improved. It was sent to the Qin family three days ago.
After that, something had happened.
Technically, Jian Yiling was not legally responsible for Qin Hongzhi’s death.
After all, Qin Hongzhi was diagnosed with a terminal illness. Before receiving treatment from Jian Yiling, he had already signed a liability waiver.
Naturally, this was under the premise that nothing in Jian Yiling’s medicine was irregular.
Dying from experimental drugs was one thing. Dying from poisoning was another thing.
Jian Yiling flipped through all the information. She did not see any information about Qin Yufan and Qin Chuan’s mother.
“Where is Yufan and Qin Chuan’s mother?” Jian Yiling asked.
Master Zhai was unsure of this as well: “Apparently, Qin Yufan is said to be hospitalized. The hospital’s VIP room is guarded by people from the Qin family. The doctor is also from the Qin family. Therefore, we don’t know much about that situation. In regards to Qin Chuan’s mother… She has never shown her face ever since Qin Hongzhi’s death. However, this makes sense as well. After all, she was Qin Hongzhi’s mistress. She has no right to interfere and handle these matters.”
Jian Yiling picked up her phone to call Qin Yufan.
However, no one answered the phone.
Then, Jian Yiling called Qin Chuan.
The phone rang for a while. Then, surprisingly, Qin Chuan answered the call.
The two of them were silent for quite some time.
Jian Yiling initiated the conversation: “What happened?”
The person on the other side of the phone was silent for a while before he said: “My father died after taking your medicine. From now on, you’re the enemy of the Qin family.”
There was no mistake that it was Qin Chuan’s voice.
His voice was a bit lower than usual.
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Jian Yiling looked at her phone and went into a momentary trance.
Just like what had happened in the original novel, Qin Hongzhi was dead.
