Bab 12: Chapter 12: Catching The Killer
"That night, Xie Bowen sent Old Master Xie home and stayed in the hospital. In order not to alert the enemy, he stayed next to his aunt's ward. The hospital was owned by his best friend and the Mu Corporation, so it made it easy to access the CCTV camera footage in the security room. That night seemed to be a sleepless one. He accessed the security cameras and the mini camera in his aunt's ward.
After midnight, when the doctor's shift changed, a lady in a doctor's dress entered the floor. Instead of the doctor's usual confident walk, she appeared rather suspicious, hiding and looking around. This made Xie Bowen alert the guards who were hiding in the room, and he looked at the camera more intently.
The lady in the doctor's dress entered his aunt's ward and took out the injection she had prepared from her coat pocket. Her face was filled with malicious intent and distorted with jealousy. She approached his aunt, Madam Li, and prepared to inject the medicine. But at that exact moment, the shadow guards surrounded her and bent her hands behind her back.
Xie Bowen ran to the ward and checked his aunt thoroughly. Only then did he turn towards the lady. He swiftly went and slapped her. Even though he looked like a gentleman and a playboy, when it came to dealing with the enemy, he was not the gentle type. His slap was hard enough to send the woman to the ground.
He then ordered the bodyguard to remove the mask from her face. The woman, whose mask was removed, had blood dripping from her mouth due to the impact of the slap. He looked at her and was shocked. She was his uncle's secretary.
His uncle, Mr. Li Shuyan, was a gentleman, and in the twelve years of marriage, he had never fought once with his wife and was known as a henpecked husband. He was known for his devotion to his wife. Even today, he had convinced his uncle so much, and only with his grandfather's nudging and nagging was he able to send his uncle with his grandfather. How come his secretary was hurting his aunt?
He immediately ordered the bodyguards to tie her up and called his uncle and grandfather. Both came as fast as possible. Old Master Xie was glaring at Master Li for putting his daughter in danger and was also astonished by Fu Rong's correct prediction.
To be able to predict at this young age is not without experience. He was so pleased with that young lady. At the same time, he was grateful to her, for only by her warning had he arranged shadow guards to protect his daughter, and because of that, she was still alive.
He planned to visit her again and was going to ask his grandson to send the payment to her. And as he thought about how his son-in-law had brought danger to his daughter, he turned to eye him again. This made Master Li's spine tingle in fear.
Throughout his marriage, he had never once glanced at any woman other than his wife. He was known for his devotion to his wife. When his wife said east, he never even turned towards the west. And now, his father-in-law was looking at him with a burning gaze, like he was going to shoot him right there. Why was his life turning into a tragedy?
"Dad…" he started and gulped down the remaining words when he saw Old Master Xie's bloodthirsty gaze. When they reached the hospital, they went to the room next to the ward. Xie Bowen was waiting for them with the woman tied tightly. When Master Li saw that it was his secretary, he was shocked. He looked at Xie Bowen with inquiry.
"Uncle, she is the reason why my aunt is in the hospital. She is the one who arranged for the accident and now came to inject the medicine to kill her," Xie Bowen pointed at her and told Master Li. Master Li was shocked to see both Old Master Xie and Young Master Xie. With their serious gazes, they didn't seem to be joking, and his secretary was indeed the one who hurt his wife.
His eyes turned cold as he looked at Nie Jinyan, his secretary. "Miss Nie, both my wife and I always appreciated your work and rewarded you enough. Even in your worst times, it was my wife who helped you out. How can you be such an ingrate and hurt my wife?" He couldn't control his anger, and if Xie Bowen hadn't held him back, he would have kicked the woman.
Nie Jinyan, who had been silent throughout, saw disdain and disgust in the eyes of Li Shuyan and was stunned. "Boss Li, how am I degrading your wife? I am as beautiful as she is. I studied at a top university and joined Li Corporation in my prime. These five years, I have diligently worked as your secretary. Why can't you like me? How could your eyes soften only for that woman instead of me, who is always near you? With her near you, you can't look at me. What if she dies? Only then will you look at me. Only then will you understand my feelings for you," she shouted hysterically with obsessive eyes.
Li Shuyan's anger rose again. "Even without her, you are nothing in my eyes. You are not even fit to carry my wife's shoes. How dare you keep your eyes on my wife!" With that, he swiftly kicked her with his shoes and stomped on her legs until she fainted from the pain.
He then turned guiltily towards Old Master Xie. Now he understood why his father-in-law was angry with him. Old Master Xie, who had been watching the scene, was inwardly pleased with his move and relaxed his face a little. But that didn't mean he wasn't angry at him for putting his daughter in danger and attracting bees and butterflies in his office. He snorted and turned his head away.
After taking care of the woman, they went to the ward where Mrs. Li was still in a coma. Old Master Xie went near his daughter and caressed her. He noticed that the talisman he had put around her neck had turned half black as if it had been burnt. He was shocked and asked Xie Bowen to come near and see. Both Xie Bowen and Li Shuyan were shocked by the talisman."
