The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Capítulo 728: Chapter 729 Zhu Lie’s Anger

Sun Mei sneered and said, “Guilty? This is Su Changfeng’s child we’re talking about; why should I feel guilty? If it weren’t for that guy, I wouldn’t be like this now!”

“Without him, you indeed wouldn’t be the way you are now,” the driver said with a double meaning. Without Su Changfeng, the Shen Family wouldn’t have developed to its current state. It was Su Changfeng’s capabilities that gave the Shen Family everything they have now, but Sun Mei just didn’t want to admit it.

What Sun Mei was talking about was merely her own downfall. She didn’t mention the glory the Shen Family now possessed, because in her eyes, the Shen Family’s current state was entirely reasonable.

“I’ve completed the task you assigned me,” Sun Mei handed Ye Nianhai to the driver.

At this moment, Liu Lili realized something was off.

Sun Mei hadn’t found a doctor for Ye Nianhai; she intended to hand Ye Nianhai over to the person in front of her, and there seemed to be some hidden transaction involved.

“Sun Mei, do you know what you’re doing!” Liu Lili said in horror.

Sun Mei turned her head, coldly smiling as she glared at Liu Lili, “I’ve been planning to get rid of you for a long time, but it never worked before. It seems like fate has decided that you come to bear this responsibility for me this time.”

Liu Lili was stunned.

“Ye Nianhai is your granddaughter; why would you harm her!” Liu Lili was somewhat emotional at this point. Even a tiger wouldn’t hurt its own cub; what Sun Mei was doing was more vicious than a tiger!

“I never admitted that this little guy is my granddaughter. She is Su Changfeng’s coward child, the same as a mortal enemy to me!” Sun Mei coldly slapped Liu Lili, then said, “It’s not just her, but you too. You’ve been freeloading off of us since you set foot in our home. This should be the happiest life you’ll ever have, but scum like you, why should you live in a villa?”

This slap cleared Liu Lili’s mind, making her subconsciously want to snatch Ye Nianhai from the driver’s hands.

The driver raised his leg and kicked Liu Lili in the stomach, causing her to clutch her belly in pain and squat down.

“The two of them are yours to handle now; I don’t want to see them again,” Sun Mei said to the driver.

“Are you giving me orders?” The driver coldly stared at Sun Mei.

Sun Mei’s aura diminished by half instantly, and she lowered her head, saying, “I’m just making a suggestion.”

“Get out of here; you’re not needed anymore,” the driver said.

Sun Mei left in disgrace and only contacted Tang Qiulu after arriving at the hospital.

“Qiulu, Liu Lili left with Ye Nianhai, and I have no idea where they went. I looked all over the hospital and couldn’t find them,” Sun Mei said in a particularly panicked tone, breathing heavily as if she had just run a marathon.

“How could this be!” Tang Qiulu asked in disbelief. She knew Liu Lili’s character well and felt there was no way she would suddenly disappear with Ye Nianhai without reason.

“You should contact Zhu Lie immediately and have his men go to the hospital. I suspect some people might have offered Liu Lili benefits, persuading her to take Ye Nianhai away,” Sun Mei said.

To Tang Qiulu, such an event felt like the sky was falling apart.

“Okay,” Tang Qiulu hung up the phone in a panic and quickly dialed Zhu Lie’s number.

Zhu Lie was busy sorting Ye Nianhai’s gifts, feeling quite satisfied with the generous gifts from the businessmen.

Even though Tang Qiulu didn’t take any interest in this matter, he did. These gifts signified Ye Nianhai’s influence in Jiang City.

Being Su Changfeng’s beloved daughter, it was normal for her to make such an impact, Zhu Lie thought.

When Zhu Lie saw Tang Qiulu’s call, he assumed she was calling about the gifts, so he answered and said, “I’m sorting them now. Once I have everything organized, I’ll send you a list.”

“Brother Lie, Ye Nianhai is missing,” Tang Qiulu said.

Zhu Lie was taken aback for a moment, then asked, “What happened?”

“Ye Nianhai was sick and we had just taken her to the hospital, but Aunt Liu also disappeared with her. My mom just contacted me; she searched the entire hospital and couldn’t find them,” Tang Qiulu explained.

Zhu Lie adjusted his emotions. He had done his utmost to prevent any accidents, with more than a hundred men guarding the villa to prevent anything from happening to Ye Nianhai, yet something still happened!

“I’ll send someone to investigate immediately, even if it means turning the entire Jiang City upside down to find them. If it truly is Liu Lili’s doing, I’ll make her wish for death!” Zhu Lie said grimly.

In Zhu Lie’s eyes, anyone daring to pose even the slightest threat to Ye Nianhai deserved only to die!

Zhu Lie put everything down and personally hurried to the First People’s Hospital, where he encountered Sun Mei at the entrance.

Sun Mei’s eyes were swollen from crying. Upon seeing Zhu Lie, she grabbed his hand and said, “You have to call everyone to find Ye Nianhai; we must find her.”

Zhu Lie suddenly grabbed Sun Mei by the neck, coldly asking, “Quickly, tell me, are you behind this?”

Zhu Lie suspected Sun Mei because, in his eyes, she always carried a certain level of danger, and he had always been especially wary of her. Yet, despite the arrangements he made to safeguard the villa, Sun Mei still seized her opportunity to harm Tang Qiulu and her daughter.

Now, Zhu Lie’s guilt surpassed his anger. If he could’ve watched Ye Nianhai every minute and second, the current situation wouldn’t have unfolded!

Most critically, based on Zhu Lie’s understanding of Liu Lili, he believed it impossible for her to betray Su Changfeng. Without Su Changfeng, where would Liu Lili have her current life? She had no reason to betray him.

Grasping Zhu Lie’s arm, Sun Mei tried to break free, but her strength was nowhere close to Zhu Lie’s, and she felt increasingly breathless, unable to speak.

Unable to speak, Sun Mei could only keep shaking her head to express what she wanted to say.

Zhu Lie loosened his grip slightly, allowing Sun Mei to speak.

Taking a heavy breath, Sun Mei said after she could breathe again, “I didn’t do it. I’m Ye Nianhai’s biological grandmother; why would I harm my own granddaughter? I know I’ve made many mistakes, but I’ve changed. This has nothing to do with me.”
