The Hidden Heiress Is a Secret Big Shot
Chapter 161 - 161 161 Melta Prison is Xiao Wus TerritoryChapter 161: Chapter 161 Melta Prison is Xiao Wu’s Territory Chapter 161: Chapter 161 Melta Prison is Xiao Wu’s Territory Why choose now to search? Elder Shen snorted coldly.
“Then go find Elder Pei, I don’t believe he’s also out traveling.”
As for who Shen Dongli’s mother was, Elder Shen already had an answer in his heart, but he needed more evidence!
Pei Mansion.
Elder Shen looked at Elder Pei, who was playing dead on the sofa.
“Elder Pei! Get up! I want you to make clear the matter I asked you about!”
“What’s the ruckus? How would I know what you’re talking about? When Huazhen was in trouble, I was more upset than you. If you had taken better care of Huazhen and let me marry her, she wouldn’t have had such a miserable life!”
Elder Shen sat on the sofa and, upon hearing this, let out a heavy sigh.
“I just want to know one thing, did Huazhen have a child back then?”
Elder Pei turned over, hugged his custom-made body pillow, and said nothing.
“The events of that time were my mistake. I didn’t know Huazhen was still alive, and I didn’t expect Dongli… Dongli wasn’t her child.”
The “her” he referred to was Mrs. Shen, a name that neither Elder Shen nor Mrs. Shen were willing to mention.
“She deceived me. At that time, I didn’t expect Dongli to be my child but not hers. For the sake of the child, I married her.”
“If I had known Huazhen was still alive…”
Elder Pei replied irritably, “You sure talk a lot. If you’re really concerned about Huazhen, you should thoroughly investigate what happened back then.”
Elder Shen said seriously, “Old Pei, I came to you this time because I suspect there was something fishy about Huazhen’s incident back then. When she was in trouble, it was at Tengshan Hospital. I’ve investigated. The mix-up with Qingwu and your second daughter-in-law’s accident, both happened at Tengshan Hospital!”
Elder Pei, upon hearing this, sat up in one swift movement.
He squinted slightly as he met Elder Shen’s eyes. The air seemed to freeze for a moment as if the leaders who once dominated the commercial empire and the iron-blooded general returning from the battlefield were back.
“Explain clearly, what have you found out?”
“Tengshan Hospital certainly has issues. The director of Tengshan Hospital was arrested by the International Police last month in Beijing for colluding with the Drug King. He’s been sent to Melta Prison, and he knows everything!”
Elder Pei nodded and began to speak boldly.
“I’ll make arrangements, but neither your identity nor mine can cross borders, let alone go to Melta. It’s impossible to go in person, but this matter is of great importance. Let my grandson go. Even though A-Jue is young, he is prudent. You let Qingwu go too. Heh heh, it even offers a chance to develop a relationship!”
Elder Pei was happily imagining as he spoke, growing more delighted the more he thought about it.
Maybe by the time they return, they’ll both be holding little ones… heh heh!
Elder Shen suddenly stood up, his cane pounding the floor with a resounding thud.
“Are you out of your mind? Do you know what kind of place Melta Prison is?”
“If anything happens to my precious granddaughter, I’ll have you in the coffin early! Qingwu is so young, and you want her to go to such a dangerous place? What are you plotting?”
Melta Prison was in one of the most dangerous places on the international landscape, with violence and bloodshed occurring every moment!
Such a place made even Elder Shen’s heart shudder, let alone sending the seemingly delicate and precious Qingwu there.
If anything happened to her, the entire Shen Family wouldn’t survive!
Elder Pei indifferently glanced at him.
“Sit down! Let’s speak civilly. Don’t get too full of yourself.”
“I’m not done talking. Why are you in such a hurry?”
“If my grandson accompanies her, won’t you be assured? I guarantee with my grandson there, Qingwu will surely be safe. Besides, Qingwu is the child raised by Huazhen. As long as she appears there with Huazhen’s bracelet, Melta Prison is her territory.”
Upon hearing this, Elder Shen calmed down.
Elder Pei, with a persuasive tone, continued, “Qingwu’s identity is not awkward. If you really want your son or grandson to go, they wouldn’t survive even before they entered. Don’t I want my grandson-in-law to be well too? I’m still waiting to see her marry A-Jue!”
Elder Shen suddenly stood up and walked toward the door without turning back.
“Eh? What’s the meaning? Are you agreeing or not? Give me a clear answer so I can tell A-Jue!”
Elder Shen grumbled without good humor.
“I’ll go back and call that Xiao bastard. If he dares to trouble Qingwu, I’ll blow up Melta Prison!”
…
Shen Mansion, Elder Shen’s study.
On the antique and elegant agarwood desk was a set of exquisite tea utensils. The aroma rolling out of the purple clay teapot filled the room with fragrance.
Qingwu rolled up her sleeves to brew tea, revealing a pair of fair, slender wrists. The jade bracelet on her wrist emitted a crystal-clear light, making the girl’s arms look extraordinarily fair and delicate.
Her tea art was elegant and smooth, skilled and professional, without spilling a drop.
Even someone as sharp-eyed as Elder Shen was amazed, his heart filled with pride and admiration!
Elder Shen picked up a cup of tea and sipped it carefully, his eyes shimmering with tears.
“Did your grandmother teach you this?”
“Yes, grandma enjoys drinking tea, especially tea with fallen osmanthus flowers.”
Only Huazhen could make the flavor of this tea… After Huazhen left, Elder Shen never drank it again.
He put down the teacup and spoke solemnly.
“Qingwu, your grandpa was a little hesitant about a matter, but now I’ve made up my mind. Grandpa has something to ask of you.”
“Please, go ahead.”
After Elder Shen finished speaking, surprise and confusion appeared on Qingwu’s face.
“Grandpa knows this matter sounds dangerous, but I promise to ensure you return safe and sound! The Pei family’s boy will protect you throughout. Are you… willing to go?”
Qingwu was simply surprised that Elder Shen would arrange for her to go to Melta Prison.
Even without Elder Shen’s request, she and Pei Jue intended to go to Melta.
Qingwu nodded in agreement.
“I’m willing to go. This matter relates to what happened to grandma back then and the truth about my and my sister’s origins. I will find out. Don’t worry.”
Qingwu smiled gently, a shallow dimple appearing at the corner of her mouth, her smile captivating and sweet.
“Grandpa, I want to show you something.”
Qingwu took out the paternity test report sent by Tian Tong and placed it on the desk.
Elder Shen seemed to anticipate what it was and, with somewhat trembling hands, picked up the report, looking at the data above, thrilled yet incredulous as he raised his head.
“This… is, is it Huazhen and Dongli’s?”
“Yes, when grandma was ill, I retained her DNA sample and did a set of data comparisons. Grandma is Dad’s biological mother.”
Elder Shen cried and laughed simultaneously.
Looking at Qingwu’s appearance, Elder Shen was overwhelmed with mixed emotions!
The child she raised was truly the best child in the world.
“Grandpa regrets not letting you live with the Shen Family from a young age, but thank you for staying with your grandma all along, Qingwu. Thanks to you, grandpa… has fewer regrets!”
He could envision over the years Huazhen and Qingwu relied on each other and knew Huazhen must have loved this granddaughter dearly. Qingwu was a good child, and for Huazhen to have Qingwu was truly fortunate!
Elder Shen’s tears hadn’t dried on his face when Shen Dongli pushed open the study door.
He looked at Qingwu, then at Elder Shen, speaking righteously.
“Dad! I don’t agree with Qingwu going to Melta Prison!”
