Chen An was arbitrarily assigned these tasks by Li Muchen, completely unaware of the current situation.
How could Old Mr. Fu of the Fu Family appear by the seaside? Was this after the fall into the sea, washed ashore by the ocean currents?
If that’s the case, it’s truly a miracle that the old man is still breathing now.
Chen An intended to rush Old Mr. Fu to the hospital, so he was taken aback upon hearing what Lu Sheng said.
But on second thought, who is Miss Lu Sheng?
She’s the Divine Doctor who could mend their young master’s leg with just a few needles, far superior to the skills of those hospital doctors.
Thus, Chen An nodded immediately, assisting Lu Sheng to lift the unconscious Old Mr. Fu onto the helicopter and fastening his seat belt.
After returning to Jiang City, the driver took them to Lu Sheng’s apartment.
Juanjuan had been staying in the apartment these past few days.
Hearing some noise outside, she walked out of her room and saw a strange man carrying an unconscious old man inside, which startled her.
She relaxed only after seeing Lu Sheng by his side.
"Sister, what’s wrong with that grandpa?" Juanjuan immediately asked, "Did something happen to him?"
"It’s nothing," said Lu Sheng, "Grandpa Fu just swallowed some sea water and caught a chill, resulting in a fever."
"Juanjuan, Grandpa Fu will be recuperating here for the next few days. If I go to school, please take good care of him at home."
"No problem, sister, leave it to me."
Juanjuan is a kind-hearted girl.
She had been living in the apartment during this time, and Lu Sheng and Lan Yu would often visit, helping her gradually recover from the trauma of being kidnapped by human traffickers.
Although she had not yet regained her old memories, Juanjuan was now spending her days in the apartment reading and drawing, gradually becoming more relaxed and happy.
Her trust and dependence on Lu Sheng grew stronger as well.
In Juanjuan’s view, Lu Sheng was like a goddess who descended from the heavens to save her.
Not only did she rescue her from the terrifying basement that was devoid of daylight, but she also provided her with a place to live. She told her not to worry or burden herself, to stay here for now, and to make other plans when her memory returned.
Lu Sheng often said Juanjuan looked like a little angel, but in Juanjuan’s heart, Sister Lu Sheng was the real angel.
Therefore, she would earnestly do whatever her sister said.
Chen An carried Old Mr. Fu to a guest room on the first floor.
After giving Old Mr. Fu a bath and changing his clothes, he placed him on the bed.
There was still a lot to be done at the company, so Lu Sheng told Chen An to head back.
After Chen An left, she took out a small pill from her medicine bottle and popped it into Old Mr. Fu’s mouth.
About half an hour later, Old Mr. Fu slowly woke up and was shocked to see Lu Sheng sitting by the bed.
"...Nannan? Where is this? Didn’t I fall into the sea..."
"Don’t panic, Grandpa," Lu Sheng immediately consoled him, "This is my apartment in Jiang City, you’re safe now."
Lu Sheng repeated the story she had coordinated with Muchen, saying that night there was a chip added to his ring that monitored his physical condition and location.
Grandpa Fu must have been lucky to get washed ashore by the sea.
So, she called Muchen, and they found him by helicopter; it’s just that the chip was lost in the process.
Even Old Mr. Fu himself did not expect to have such a narrow escape, to fall into the sea and be washed ashore.
Especially when the place he fell from seemed to be quite far from the shore.
But since he survived, it seems like it was divine providence.
Seeing Old Mr. Fu getting over the shock of his miraculous survival, Lu Sheng immediately asked, "So Grandpa, weren’t you on a cruise to Huali Island?"
"Why did you fall into the sea? Was there an accident?"
Upon mentioning this, Old Mr. Fu remembered the events that unfolded before the fall, and seemed to become agitated, his fists clenching and chest heaving.
"No..." Old Mr. Fu’s voice suddenly became grave, a severity showing that he never displayed before to Lu Sheng, "It was no accident; someone tried to kill me."
Upon hearing this, Lu Sheng’s heart sank.
Her brows furrowed tightly, awaiting Old Mr. Fu’s explanation.
Old Mr. Fu said, "At the time I felt stuffy inside the cruise ship and decided to go out on the deck for some fresh air. But I had barely been there a moment when someone pushed me from behind."
"I had no time to react, nor could I see who it was, and just like that, I fell into the sea. After swimming a few minutes, I lost strength and consciousness."
"Grandpa, are you sure that person intentionally pushed you into the sea?" Old Mr. Fu had finished speaking, and Lu Sheng’s expression had turned completely cold.
"I’m certain," affirmed Old Mr. Fu, "I can tell the difference between an accidental bump and a forceful push. Moreover, the person quickly left the deck after pushing me, and I didn’t even get a clear look at his face; I only know it was a man."
Lu Sheng took a deep breath. Old Mr. Fu’s fall into the sea was no accident; someone had planned this and hired an assassin with the intention of taking his life.
Old Mr. Fu naturally came to this conclusion as well.
However, he couldn’t think of anyone who would want to kill a man in his sixties.
"Nannan, someone clearly meant to take my life today," Old Mr. Fu sighed heavily after a moment, "but Grandpa has always been kind, never making enemies. I have no idea who would use such methods against me."
Upon hearing this, Lu Sheng immediately thought of Fu Siya.
Considering the events of the birthday banquet that night, could this matter be related to Fu Siya?
But without evidence, and considering Fu Siya was Old Mr. Fu’s own granddaughter, she would not speculate recklessly.
She simply asked Old Mr. Fu, "Grandpa, do many people know you were going on a cruise to Huali Island today?"
"Not many, it was just a little vacation, and I didn’t publicize it," said Old Mr. Fu, "Other than the household staff who takes care of me, only Siya knew about it... and she was the one who arranged for this cruise ticket..."
Upon mentioning Fu Siya, Old Mr. Fu instinctively furrowed his brows.
But then he relaxed his expression quickly.
Siya was his own granddaughter after all; how could she be involved in this? Perhaps she is already panicking upon hearing the news of his fall into the sea.
After thinking for a few seconds, Lu Sheng spoke solemnly, "Grandpa, currently there’s no evidence to identify who wishes to kill you, but since someone planned this, they must have a motive."
"No one knows of your rescue, which means to the outside world, you’ve simply vanished after falling into the sea."
"I think it’s best we do nothing for now. You can stay and recuperate with me. The elusive enemy behind this will eventually reveal themselves."
