Chapter 819: I’m Scared of You
Sheng Kai requested to see Shen Yu, but he was neither a relative nor a guardian of Shen Yu, so the police refused to let him through.
“Shen Yu has no family in this world. I’m the only friend he knows. If you don’t allow me to see him, fine. This is a gift I prepared for him. After you check it, can you bring it to him for me?”
“These things are all illegal items. There’s no way to bring them in.” The police stopped him. “But I’ll tell him you came by.”
Sheng Kai had no choice but to return. Cheng Bin saw that Sheng Kai had not given him anything, so he asked him, “What’s going on?”
“Non-relatives don’t have the right to meet. Besides, the police won’t hand these over. They say it’s against the law.”
Cheng Bin frowned and did not say anything. After a while, he said to Sheng Kai, “Then let’s go back. We’ve done our best.”
Shen Yu heard from the police that Sheng Kai had come. He squatted on the ground and sneered. This person was not good at doing things, but he was good at ruining things. He must have been used by Jin Bo again. However, he could not be the life-taking blade that Jin Bo wanted. Thinking of this, Shen Yu laughed out loud.
A useless person would be useless no matter what he did.
However, before he could be satisfied, he felt dizzy and his limbs went weak. In a moment, he fell to the ground and his body convulsed.
Everything was as Sheng Xiao had expected. Shen Yu would not be able to live for more than three days in prison.
Shen Yu was dead!
Upon hearing this news, Sheng Kai felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, drilling into his brain.
Jin Bo did not let Shen Yu live.
He did not send the gifts in, so this should have nothing to do with him, right?
His hands could not help trembling as Sheng Kai called Cheng Bin. After Cheng Bin received the news, he was much calmer than Sheng Kai. Shen Yu betrayed Jin Bo, so he would definitely not end up well. This was the rule, and there was nothing else to say. However, this was a human life, and Sheng Kai had never felt it so closely. A person was gone just like that.
Therefore, he could not calm down, not for a long time.
When Cheng Bin saw this, he patted Sheng Kai on the shoulder. “CEO Sheng, don’t think too much. We don’t even know how Shen Yu died. This has nothing to do with you.”
“I’ve only ever wanted power. I don’t want to get involved with human lives.”
“But in this world, where can you find such a good thing? However, Shen Yu has nothing to do with you. You didn’t kill him and he didn’t die because of you. What are you afraid of?”
Cheng Bin comforted Sheng Kai. “That’s enough. Mr. Jin wouldn’t do this to his godson. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have given Changrong to you. Don’t you think so?”
Sheng Kai didn’t say anything, but no matter how stupid he was, he wasn’t stupid enough to believe Cheng Bin’s words. He had never been on the same side as him. He wanted a chance for revenge. In order for that to happen, he would do anything, even at the cost of his life.
“CEO Sheng, you’re already in the game. Don’t even think about escaping. You’re Mr. Jin’s godson. Don’t let him down.”
Sheng Kai could not take it anymore and rushed out of Changrong.
He had nowhere else to go, so he went to Gu Ziling’s grandfather’s house.
From the moment he entered, he was aggressive and rushed straight to Grandpa Gu’s study.
Grandpa Gu was reading a document when he saw Sheng Kai come back. He immediately frowned. “Don’t you know how to knock?”
“It was you...” Sheng Kai went up and grabbed the old man’s collar. “You introduced me to Jin Bo. You asked me to be his godson.”
“So what if I did? Didn’t you get Changrong from your godfather?”
“My life is almost over. What do I care about Changrong?” Sheng Kai shouted loudly. “Do you know what they are doing?”
“You are my grandson-in-law. Why would I harm you?”
After hearing his words, Sheng Kai laughed out loud. “Why would you harm me? When did the Gu family look up to me? Gu Ziling, her mother, and you have never treated me as a human being.”
“You got me a godfather and even put the blade on my neck. Is this what you mean by ‘not harming me’?”
“Sheng Kai, what’s wrong with you?” Gu Ziling rushed over when she saw this scene.
However, she was pushed away by Sheng Kai.
“What’s wrong with me? Ask your good grandfather what Jin Bo does!”
“I told you before, but you didn’t listen.” Gu Ziling stood in front of Sheng Kai. “You keep dreaming of making a comeback. Why don’t you ask yourself?”
“I did it all because of you. Every day you told me that I’m useless, that I’m worthless.”
“You’re useless, and you’re impotent!”
Gu Ziling was angry, and Sheng Kai went crazier when he heard that.
“Gu Ziling!”
“I’m not wrong. Don’t look at me like that.”
Sheng Kai took two steps back and pointed at Gu Ziling. “I’ll make you kneel down and beg me to let you and your whole family go one day!”
With that, Sheng Kai turned around and left. His dignity as a man had been completely trampled on by Gu Ziling.
Just wait and see. He would not be useless forever.
..
Sheng Xiao had also received the news that Shen Yu died.
He did not know if Xu Che had made any new breakthroughs. At the same time, he was also worried about the safety of Xu Che and the others.
Just how far would this group of people go and who were their targets?
When Sheng Bowen heard about this, he immediately went to Zhongteng to seek confirmation from Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao did not hide it from him and his tone had never been so solemn. “We haven’t figured out who’s behind this yet, so take good care of the Sheng family during this period of time, especially the old man, his health.”
Sheng Bowen’s face was just as solemn. Seeing that Sheng Xiao was serious, of course, he did not dare to be negligent. “Noted. It’s just that I feel uncomfortable when I think that there’s a Sheng family traitor on the opposite side.”
“That’s the path he chose.” After Sheng Xiao finished speaking, he returned Sheng Bowen’s asset certificates to him. “Don’t hand them over to Qi’er in the future. If there’s a next time, I won’t return them.”
“Then don’t return them. Eighth Brother, help me monitor the funds.”
Sheng Xiao raised his head and glared at him. Was this person not done yet?
“You called to ask for Xiao Qi yesterday. Got into a fight?”
“Do you feel like you’ve got too much time on your hands? Huang Yao...”
“Okay, I lose. I’m scared of you.” Sheng Bowen quickly took back his things. He was afraid that Sheng Xiao would get him to go back to being the CEO. Now that Huang Yao was under Sheng Xiao, he did not want to waste all the effort that had been put in.
Perhaps he was afraid that Sheng Xiao was serious, so Sheng Bowen left.
This person really could not take a joke. He was not cute at all.
..
There were still two days before Sheng Xiao and Xu Che’s appointment. However, in the middle of the night, Sheng Xiao was awakened by Xu Che’s phone call. “President, there’s been a breakthrough. The photo has been sent to your phone. I’ll be back tomorrow morning.”
“Is it safe?”
“Yes.”
“Leave now and come back immediately,” Sheng Xiao told him. “Or I’ll send someone to pick you up right away.”
“Just a little injured. It’s not a big deal. Don’t make such a big commotion. It’ll only raise suspicions.”
“If there’s a problem, call for help at any time.”
With that, Sheng Xiao hung up the phone and took a look at the photo that Xu Che sent him.
