Chapter 37 The Mystery of His Origins: The True Heir of the Shi Family!
Cheng Zijun was really angry!
He didn't understand what Jiang Ning was up to!
Why did he have to deliberately arrive late to prove how important she was to him?
I don't know.
In his mind, Jiang Ning was nothing but a pile of dog shit.
If it weren't for the need to completely control the Thrilling Game, he would have felt it was dirty to even glance at Jiang Ning.
Hearing Cheng Zijun's words, Lin Yuze's expression was complicated. He carefully considered his words before continuing, "Brother Zijun, it seems that Jiang Ning is really no longer the Jiang Ning she used to be."
Cheng Zijun's attempt to threaten Jiang Ning in this way may not achieve the desired effect.
There's a saying: "If you have no man in your heart, you'll naturally be a god when you draw your sword!"
It's clear that Jiang Ning is in this situation now.
"Not the same Jiang Ning as before? Then which Jiang Ning could she be?" Cheng Zijun felt that Lin Yuze was overcomplicating things. "What do you expect that lowly country bumpkin to become? No matter how she changes, she can't change her despicable nature!"
Lin Yuze looked at Cheng Zijun, "Brother Zijun, calm down and think about it carefully. If Jiang Ning really wanted to remarry you, she wouldn't have skipped the appointment today."
Given Jiang Ning's personality, if she really still loved Cheng Zijun, she would have rushed over as soon as she received his call, and wouldn't have waited until now.
“She won’t not come!” Cheng Zijun squinted at Lin Yuze. “What you need to do now is to relay my words to her! Tell her to stop playing hard to get; I’m sick of it! Enough is enough! I’m only giving her one chance!”
After saying this, Cheng Zijun turned and left. Recently, Shen's sudden decision to cooperate with Jidong Games had dealt a heavy blow to Cheng's Group. There were still many things waiting for him to deal with in the company, and he didn't have time to wait for Jiang Ning here.
**
Beijing.
Shi Family Manor.
Inside the solemn Buddhist hall, the elderly woman with gray hair knelt on a prayer mat, her hands clasped together, and said very devoutly, "I pray to the Bodhisattva to bless me so that I may find my poor daughter-in-law and granddaughter soon! Please have mercy on me and let this old woman fulfill her dream of enjoying the company of her grandchildren."
In the end, Grandma Shi solemnly kowtowed on the ground.
Looking up at the Buddha statue again, the old lady's eyes were very red, and her forehead was also red and swollen. "I have been a devout Buddhist all my life and have never done anything bad. Why is Heaven punishing me like this? At the age of sixty, I should be surrounded by my children and grandchildren and enjoying the happiness of family life. But my son has been lying in bed for nineteen years, my daughter-in-law has disappeared without a trace, and I don't even know if my poor granddaughter is alive or dead."
“If I did something wrong in my past life, Bodhisattva, you may punish me as you see fit. I can endure being skinned alive, having my tendons pulled out, or being sent to the eighteenth level of hell.”
"But why did you punish my poor granddaughter? Why did you let her wander outside and suffer so much?"
"What did the child do wrong?"
"What did the child do wrong!"
By the end, Grandma Shi's face was covered in tears, and her voice was almost hoarse.
"Mom, stop kneeling, please get up," just then, Shi Yue, the eldest daughter of the Shi family, walked in from outside and quickly helped the old lady Shi up from the ground. "Your health is not very good to begin with, and you have been kneeling since this morning. How can your body take it?"
Nineteen years ago.
Grandma Shi's eldest son, Shi Nanxing, was taking his wife, Si Huashang, and their three-month-old daughter, Shi Sheng, back to their hometown to pay respects to their ancestors. Unexpectedly, while traveling along a dangerous mountain road, they had a car accident, and the car rolled directly down the cliff.
Shi Nanxing and his family of three were thrown out on the spot.
The driver died at the scene.
After that car accident, Shi Nanxing became a vegetable and has been in a coma in his hospital bed for nineteen years!
Si Huashang and her three-month-old daughter have disappeared without a trace, and there has been no news of them since.
Everyone said that Si Huashang and her three-month-old daughter Shi Sheng were eaten by wild animals in the mountains, but Old Mrs. Shi did not believe it. Over the years, she had been searching for her daughter-in-law and granddaughter.
In the old lady's view, one must see the person alive or the body dead. As long as she did not see the bodies of Si Huashang and the child, it meant that Si Huashang and the child must still be alive.
Maybe Si Huashang just lost her memory because of that car accident, and she's living a very good life with her child!
In order to find the last drop of the Shi family bloodline as soon as possible.
Over the years, Grandma Shi has been supporting impoverished rural areas, donating money to children in mountainous areas, and donating schools. She spends about 100 million yuan on public welfare every year.
"Shengbao, my Shengbao, when will my Shengbao be able to come home and see Grandma?" Grandma Shi held her daughter's hand, almost bursting into tears.
Shengbao is the granddaughter's nickname. The old lady doted on this granddaughter and designated her as the future successor of the Shi family when she was born.
They had planned to let their granddaughter take over the family's huge business, but unexpectedly, such a big change happened before she even grew up!
Actually, Grandma Shi wasn't a person who cried easily.
Having lost her husband at a young age, she was able to withstand immense pressure, supporting the entire Shi Group while raising her two children.
Even when her beloved son became a vegetable and her daughter-in-law and granddaughter's fate was uncertain in middle age, she could still grit her teeth and persevere because she believed that one day she would definitely be able to find her grandson and daughter-in-law and reunite the family.
But now.
Nineteen years have passed.
She went from a 42-year-old young woman to a 61-year-old old woman.
She felt her hope dwindling little by little, and she felt her body deteriorating day by day.
That feeling was utterly despairing.
She didn't know if she would live to see her granddaughter come home.
Every time she dreams, she dreams that she has found her daughter-in-law and granddaughter, but every time she wakes up, she finds that it was just a dream.
Nobody knows what that feels like!
No one can truly understand what she went through!
How she longed to find her granddaughter!
In fact, over the past nineteen years, many girls have come to the Shi family to claim kinship, and many of them even look somewhat similar to Shi Nanxing. However, the paternity test results have left the old lady of the Shi family extremely disappointed!
“Shengbao will come back, Shengbao will definitely come back,” Shiyue hugged her mother tightly, her eyes also very red. “She will definitely come back! And you still have An’an! An’an is also your granddaughter, she will take good care of you and let you enjoy the happiness of family life.”
An'an is Shi Nanyue's daughter, whose full name is Tang An. She is 22 years old this year, an all-round talent, and a typical heiress from a wealthy family.
“An’an is An’an, and Sheng Bao is Sheng Bao. Although both children are of the Shi family bloodline, they are different after all,” the old lady Shi wiped away her tears. “But An’an is not Sheng Bao after all. They are different.”
All she wants is her Shengbao!
No one can.
No one can replace her Sheng Bao.
Upon hearing these words, Shi Nanyue lowered her eyes slightly, making it impossible to discern her thoughts.
Grandma Shi didn't notice the subtle change in her daughter's eyes, and then said, "Xiaoyue, come with me to see your brother."
Although Shi Nanxing is currently in a vegetative state, his grandmother spends an hour with him every day.
"Okay, Mom." Shi Nanyue nodded and helped the old lady walk to the other side of the yard.
The mother and daughter soon arrived at Shi Nanxing's courtyard.
The Shi family has good genes, and Shi Nanxing was extremely handsome when he was young. Although he is now over forty years old and has been in a coma for many years, with graying temples and obvious wrinkles around his eyes, he still looks very handsome. At this moment, he is lying in bed with even breathing. If it weren't for the feeding tube in his nose, no one would know that he is in a vegetative state.
Grandma Shi sat by the bed, holding her son's hand tightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "Nanxing, please wake up, okay? Wake up and talk to your mother."
"Only when you wake up will Mom know the real reason for the car accident back then!"
"After all these years, don't you feel sorry for your mother? Don't you want to find Huashang and Shengbao?"
Grandma Shi always felt that something was wrong with the car accident back then.
It doesn't seem like an accident.
It seems more like it was man-made.
She suspected that her rival had someone do it.
However, due to the limited technology at the time, by the time the police arrived at the scene, it had been almost completely destroyed by a rainstorm. Some of the people in the car were dead, some were missing, and some had become vegetative. The technicians couldn't find any useful clues and could only conclude that it was an accidental car accident.
Shi Nanxing is the only person who knows the truth about this car accident; she will only find out the truth once he wakes up.
Let the masterminds behind this get their comeuppance!
Shi Yue stood behind the old lady, and upon hearing her words, her eyes also reddened. She leaned forward slightly and took Shi Nanxing's hand, "Nanxing, please wake up! Do you know how many years your sister has waited for this day..."
Just then, a maid came over with a bag of Western medicine.
Shi Nanyue wiped away her tears. "Let me feed Nanxing the medicine."
The maid handed the medicine to Shi Nanyue.
The medicine had already been crushed beforehand. Shi Nanyue took the medicine, dissolved it in water, and then fed it into Shi Nanxing's stomach through a nasogastric tube. Shi Nanyue's movements were very skillful, and it was clear that she often fed Shi Nanxing medicine.
In fact, Shi Nanyue and her younger brother had a very good relationship. She would personally feed him medicine almost every two or three days.
Grandma Shi looked at her son, tears streaming down her face. "Nanxing, my son, how can I live with you lying in bed like this? How can I live?"
