“He Sheng!” Zhou Xuan shouted at the door.
As soon as he finished speaking, He Sheng immediately pushed the door open and entered. “Yes, President Zhou. What can I do for you?”
“From now on, you will personally bring people to guard the ward. No one other than the doctors and nurses is allowed to enter the ward to prevent anyone from having designs on Father again.”
Zhou Xuan made a countermeasure based on the current situation. “Mobilize more manpower. Everyone in the Zhou family has to be monitored in real time. No matter where they go or what they do, I want to know everything. Report to me immediately if anything abnormal happens.”
“Understood, President Zhou. i’ll arrange it now.”
Shan Yue nodded silently. For now, this was the safest solution. However, at the same time, Shan Yue had her own thoughts. From the conversation she had just heard in the elevator, Zhou Xuan’s third uncle could be temporarily eliminated as a suspect.
Although he was on the same side as his second uncle, he did not have the guts. To put it bluntly, he was no different from a puppet.
In addition, the change in the head of the Zhou family a few days ago could clearly understand the current situation. The reason why the Zhou family was in such a mess was completely because of Zhou Chuo and his son.
However, who was the mastermind behind this matter, or if the two of them had joined forces to snatch power from Zhou Kuo, they needed more evidence to prove it. After she participated in the selection, it would basically be the end of the year. At that time, she would simply go to the Zhou family with Zhou Xuan.
It was a good opportunity to see what these people from the Zhou family were hiding.
“Shan Yue, 1 might have to focus most of my attention on my father and the family for the next few days. If I can’t take care of you…”
“Alright, Zhou Xuan, 1 know what you want to say.” Before Zhou Xuan could finish speaking, Shan Yue placed her hand between his lips.
“We have to prioritize things. Take care of your father first. I’ve already asked Ye Ying to investigate the Yang family. By then, there might be some unexpected surprises.” As Shan Yue spoke, the finger that was originally between Zhou Xuan’s lips slowly moved to his cheek and gently caressed his face. “I’ll come back to help you after the selection.”
The two of them gave each other a few more instructions before Shan Yue drove back to the company.
Zhou Xuan stayed in the hospital to take care of his father. Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and it was the morning of the gathering.
Shan Yue brought silver needles for treatment and even embroidered a small knife in the middle of her clothes. She also brought some medicine for treatment in case of emergencies. After making all the preparations, Shan Yue took the communication device that had already been tampered with and left the company. The chauffeur was already waiting downstairs.
“Drive, Uncle Wang.”
Shan Yue calmed down. Although she had yet to reach the designated location, she had already guessed what would happen next. She had become a candidate through exemption. She was very different from the other three. They would definitely not take her seriously. They might work together to chase her out of the game first.
However, Shan Yue did not care about this. Strength was the only capital.
“You can just leave after sending me there. After the selection, i’ll return to the company myself.”
“Understood, President Shan.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Shan Yue closed her eyes and the next scene flashed through her mind.
The three people who had walked out of the Demon Month were rushing over from different places in the Federation City. What awaited them would be the first test set by the professors. It would test the contestants’ temperament and reaction to dangerous situations.
Usually, the location where the selection would begin would be welcomed by special people who would bring the contestants to the designated environment. However, today’s selection was very different.
In such an empty space, there was no one. There was an empty field and weeds everywhere..
