No matter how chaotic the police station was, Shi Man and Yi Zheng were only focused on busying themselves with the health of their family. At least on the surface.
After a detailed checkup by the hospital last night, the poisonous gas that Shi Zhong and the others had inhaled had been expelled from their bodies and would not pose any threat to their bodies. Therefore, early in the morning, Butler Qi personally brought the chauffeur back from the hospital.
Su Tang helped the chef work in the kitchen for the entire morning, wanting them to nourish their bodies.
Shi He smelled the familiar fragrance of food and stretched comfortably on the sofa. “Home is still the best. The smell in the hospital is really disgusting.”
Shi Mu slumped beside him listlessly. “Why do 1 still feel dizzy? Why don’t we get Doctor Kate to take a look at me!”
“You’re so delicate.” Shi Zhong rolled his eyes at him angrily, but he turned around and threw himself into his wife’s arms for a hug.
Shen Xian pushed him in disgust, but she didn’t really intend to push him away. She was just putting on an act.
Shi Yu put down his teacup with lingering fears and said, “Have the police investigated the culprit?”
At the mention of this, Shen Xian’s expression changed.
Sensing the person in his arms suddenly stiffen for a moment, Shi Zhong straightened up and looked at her in surprise. “Did something else happen after we fainted?”
Shen Xian sighed and could only briefly explain the situation on the rooftop.
Shi Mu was so angry that he couldn’t care less about fainting. He jumped up from the sofa and scolded, “So it’s this wretched girl again. How did our Shi family offend her? She must be crazy!”
Shi Yu sighed helplessly and said, “Even if it was for Yi Zheng, she went overboard.”
“Yes, it must be because of this Yi Zheng!” Shi Mu was furious when he heard this person’s name. Under Shi Zhong’s dissatisfied glare, he sat back on the sofa angrily and said, “Ever since our Manman got together with him, nothing good has happened. Do you think he’s a jinx?!”
“Ahem.” Shi Yu suddenly coughed dryly and interrupted Shi Mu’s nagging. He smiled awkwardly at the person standing at the staircase and said, “You’re awake. Were you and Manman injured last night?”
Shi Mu suddenly raised his head and followed his gaze upstairs. He met Yi Zheng’s unfathomable eyes.
“Why are you still at my house?” Shi Mu was shocked by him and protected his shoulder exaggeratedly.
Shi Man glanced at her silly brother and slowly walked down the stairs. “It was too late last night. So he stayed over?”
Shi Mu keenly smelled something different from it and narrowed his eyes with a strange expression. “He stayed over? Where did he sleep?”
Shi Man rolled her eyes and could not be bothered with his question. She smelled the fragrance and walked to the kitchen. As expected, she saw Su Tang busy scooping soup inside.
Frowning, Shi Man took the soup bowl from her and said reproachfully, “Why didn’t you sleep more? Why are you up so early?”
Su Tang stuck out her tongue in embarrassment. “I want to be more useful.”
“Being useful doesn’t mean you have to be so virtuous. You have your areas of expertise. You don’t have to force yourself to do these things, let alone do everything.” Shi Man refuted her wrong thoughts without thinking and carried the steaming soup bowl out of the kitchen.
Su Tang looked at her back in a daze for a long time. It was not until she heard Shen Xian call her out for dinner in the living room that she came back to her senses. She quickly took off her apron, washed her hands, and walked out of the kitchen.
It was a huge blessing for Shen Xian that the family could sit down and eat together after experiencing such a huge danger.
She was so happy that she even ate an extra bowl of rice.
After breakfast, the police came to the house to record everyone’s statements as Chief Zheng had said.
However, to their surprise, the police officers also brought shocking news. Zheng Xin was actually hiding a large amount of drugs and was suspected of drug trafficking.
When Shi Mu heard this, the expression on his face was more of understanding than surprise.
The police officer thought that he knew something and hurriedly asked him for clues.
Unexpectedly, Shi Mu’s words almost made him fall back in anger. “No wonder she’s been so crazy recently and her mind is so abnormal. So it’s because she’s taken drugs! Drugs really harm people!”
“Fourth Young Master.” At the same time that the police officer was helpless, he had no choice but to warn him sternly, “We’ve done a poison test on Miss Zheng. She has never taken drugs. Please be careful with your words and actions. After all, our interrogation was recorded the entire time.”
What he meant was that Chief Zheng would also hear this so he didn’t want them to speak nonsense.
Shi Zhong glared at his youngest son. When he looked at the young police officers, his tone softened. “My son was spouting nonsense. Don’t take it to heart. Actually, we don’t interact much with Zheng Xin.. If we think of anything, we’ll take the initiative to contact you, okay?”
