A dowry of one billion, and I'll marry him!

Shen Lianchu's lips curled into a smile. Seeing that he was following her lead, she nodded in satisfaction and said, "A couple of days ago, we saw Shi Yanxia having dinner with a man."

"That license plate 'Zhan A8,' bro, do you think it really belongs to that Zhan family member?"

"Don't forget, the Zhan family's son is dying. How could he possibly go out to dinner with Shi Yanxia? Besides, Shi Yanxia's personality isn't attractive to men at all."

"She just married into the family to bring good luck, so why is that man so protective of her? He even went so far as to run us over with his car for her sake," Shen Lianchu said in a low voice.

She's been in the hospital for the past two days, and she just can't figure it out.

They were even more afraid that if Shi Yanxia really won the favor of the Zhan family, and Zhan Jinglin wasn't really going to die, wouldn't Yanxia have gotten a good deal?

She felt somewhat resentful, but even more so, she was filled with fear.

What if Shi Yanxia gets a marriage she doesn't want? The more she thinks about it, the more scared she gets.

"In the entire world, apart from that person, no one dares to drive a car with this license plate. I had someone investigate, but they couldn't find any information about that person's background, nor could they find any information about the Zhan family."

“We don’t know much about the Zhan family right now, except that he is indeed terminally ill and doesn’t have much time left,” Shen Zhinan said in a low voice.

Shen Lianchu's hands involuntarily tightened.

She looked nervously at Shen Zhinan and whispered, "Brother, what if that person's supposed deathbed condition is fake? What if it's just a ruse?"

"He wants to mislead everyone and make them lower their guard against the Zhan family. Perhaps it's a business tactic? Then wouldn't my sister marrying him be..." Shen Lianchu dared not think any further.

Recently, Shi Yanxia's arrogance seems to have gained some confidence.

This made her wonder if the Zhan family member was really seriously ill.

“This news can’t be false,” Shen Zhinan denied outright.

Shen Lianchu wanted to ask more, but he stopped her with a look. She subconsciously turned around and saw Leng Chengshen staring straight at her. She quickly brushed her hair aside.

"I'll head out now. Young Master Leng, please get some rest." Shen Zhinan nodded politely to Leng Chengshen.

After all, Leng Chengshen hadn't been able to help with this, and Shen Zhinan was unhappy about it.

But she didn't completely break ties with Leng Chengshen, after all, what if she needed him someday? After all, who can truly untangle the complexities of interpersonal relationships?

"Okay," Leng Chengshen replied in a low voice.

After Shen Zhinan left, the ward fell into an eerie silence.

Shen Lianchu looked at the unfinished porridge, picked it up and handed it to her, saying softly, "Would you like some?"

"No need," Leng Chengshen quickly shook his head and refused.

Last night, after he arrived at the hospital, he got stuck in the elevator when he left. He vaguely heard Shen Lianchu talking to a strange man, saying that he was lucky.

Leng Chengshen stared at her thoughtfully, trying to find a hole in her.

"Thank you for last night. If you hadn't found someone to rescue me from the elevator, I don't know how long I would have been trapped," Leng Chengshen said, glancing at her subconsciously.

He suppressed his displeasure and asked suspiciously, "How did you know I was trapped in the elevator?"

He had already left, and his cell phone had no signal and the alarm bell was broken, but Shen Lianchu knew exactly which floor he had landed on and even had someone pry open the elevator.

Leng Chengshen was puzzled, vaguely sensing that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

"When you came out, I chased after you. I had something I wanted to tell you, but you took the elevator. I felt the elevator shake a few times before it stopped. I realized something was wrong, so I asked someone to come and check it out," Shen Lianchu answered flawlessly.

Leng Chengshen, however, was somewhat skeptical.

When he left, the corridor was empty, and he didn't see her chase after him at all.

He was chatting with Shen Zhinan in the corridor when Shen Lianchu was in the ward. Even if he left, she wouldn't know, so what she just said made him even more suspicious.

"What is it?" Leng Chengshen suppressed his inner doubts and asked in a low voice.

Shen Lianchu sat down on the edge of the hospital bed, looking at him with complicated emotions.

"I know you like Shi Yanxia, ​​and I don't understand why she's been playing hard to get with you, keeping her distance while trying to hook you."

"A couple of days ago, my brother and I went out and saw her having dinner with a man at a private restaurant. There were bodyguards preventing us from going in."

"I was suspicious at the time, so I kept following her to see if she had been scammed. I didn't expect that person to drive into us and almost send my brother and me flying. The car was even dented," Shen Lianchu said in a low voice.

Leng Chengshen listened, his brows furrowed, clearly disbelieving.

"You don't believe me? It was the day you made headlines and it was the same day the rumors about us checking into a hotel room surfaced. I'll have someone check the security footage if you don't believe me."

“Do you have any connections? If you do, just pull up the surveillance footage from that area, and you’ll see it,” Shen Lianchu said, still unwilling to give up.

She wanted to completely erase Shi Yanxia's image from Leng Chengshen's mind.

No matter what, it's impossible to let Shi Yanxia get involved with any wealthy family. If something happens to the Shi Zhan family, it will push Shi Yanxia to the brink of despair.

"Tell me the time and place," Leng Chengshen said in a hoarse voice.

He still couldn't believe that Shi Yanxia was actually dating a man.

Besides, it's obviously impossible for the Zhan family member to accompany her to dinner. Let alone whether the Zhan family member would even be interested in her, even if he were, he's about to die.

This is common knowledge. How could a person who is about to die have the energy to get up and go out to eat with her?

"The First Private Kitchen on Baohua Street, around 1:30 PM," Shen Lianchu immediately reported the time and location.

Upon hearing the name "First Private Kitchen," Leng Chengshen frowned even more deeply.

His fingertips stiffened for a moment. He knew this restaurant; most people weren't qualified to go in, let alone a poor wretch like Shi Yanxia. But she actually went in.

This is too ridiculous.

"Help me check the CCTV footage for this place, Baohua Street, First Private Kitchen, around 1:30 pm the day before yesterday," Leng Chengshen said after making a phone call to his assistant.

After hanging up the phone, he felt somewhat restless.

All he could think about was Shi Yanxia luring him to the hotel and then using Zheng Jiao to hit him!

His chest heaved as he held his breath, clearly unable to understand why she changed her attitude so quickly, even though he had already won her over.

Why did she suddenly turn on him and even bite him?

"Don't be too sad. I believe she was definitely deceived by a man. Nowadays, many men specifically target women around 20 years old, thinking they are innocent and want to keep them as mistresses."

"Besides, my sister is definitely short of money and is in a hurry to make some. She's afraid that if something happens to the Shen family, she'll have no one to rely on. I understand her," Shen Lianchu said, deliberately trying to smear Shi Yanxia.

As Leng Chengshen listened to her words, he looked at her face and subconsciously turned his head away.

Just then, his phone vibrated. Leng Chengshen quickly answered the call and said in a low voice, "How's it going? Have you found the surveillance footage? Send it to me quickly. Also, check the identity of the person in the footage."
