The Hidden Heiress Is a Secret Big Shot

Chapter 266: Chapter 266 Qingwu Discovers the Secret on Xuan Lengyue Chapter 266: Chapter 266 Qingwu Discovers the Secret on Xuan Lengyue [“Boss, weren’t you always uninterested in this kind of summit?”]

Beidou Star received countless summit invitations every year.

Qingwu thought they were just meetings where so-called industry insiders gathered to put on airs, and Beidou Star had its own complete operational system.

There was no need to broaden connections and resources at these summits.

Instead, it was the organizers who tried every possible way to find opportunities to contact Beidou Star.

[“Suddenly, I feel like going. How is the thing I asked you to investigate?”]

[“Tian Ji got a copy of Xuan Lengyue’s medical report. It looks odd. Boss, you better take a look yourself.”]

Looking at the medical report on her phone, Qingwu’s brows furrowed slightly.

She had already suspected there was something off about Xuan Lengyue’s condition and had asked Beidou Star to investigate it.

Looking at the report data before her, Qingwu further confirmed her suspicions!

Pei Jue saw Qingwu looking at her phone and placed the peeled shrimp on her plate. “What’s going on?”

The encrypted language used internally by Beidou Star for communication was difficult for untrained individuals to understand.

Qingwu casually sent a message to Professor Chen Jianhong and put her phone away.

“No problem, I just want to discuss Grandpa’s medication with Professor Chen. And also Elder Pei’s medication, I noticed there were a few extra kinds in the morning.”

Elder Pei and Elder Shen’s health were now being managed by Qingwu.

Occasionally, she would also massage the elders, but Elder Shen would worry about tiring his granddaughter, so he let Shen Zhongshuang, who knew the points and had strong hands, do these tasks.

This morning, while watching the elders take their medicine, Qingwu noticed something suspicious about Elder Pei’s medication.

“Grandpa’s medication increased?”

“I checked, it seems Elder Pei caught a little cold recently, and he got some medicine on his own.”

There were also other medicines Qingwu wanted to discuss with Chen Jianhong.

Chen Jianhong’s reply came quickly.

[“Are you interested in a case? That’s great! Come to the hospital when you have time, and we’ll talk in detail.”]

[“See you later today.”]

After replying, Qingwu put away her phone, “Sorry for disturbing your meal.”

Pei Jundu quickly spoke up, “No problem! Even if you were playing games while eating, it wouldn’t matter in our house. You can do whatever you want, and Jue will indulge you!”

As he spoke, he worried that Pei Jue wouldn’t know what to say, so he kicked him under the table.

Pei Jue smiled helplessly, “Of course, Xiao Wu can do whatever she likes in our home. But if it’s gaming, I hope to join her.”

His tone was full of indulgence.

Even Shen Shaojia across the table shivered.

“President Pei better keep his promise; otherwise, our Xiao Wu might not marry you! You don’t even know how many people in our office are asking for her contact information!”

But Shen Shaojia didn’t give it to anyone.

Those bald-headed researchers didn’t even know their age from their hair, and they wanted to be with her cute and innocent sister—dream on!

Pei Jundu became serious, “Shaojia, do you have a boy you fancy?”

Shen Shaojia rolled her eyes.

“Why should I like someone who does experiments worse than me, has less hair, is poorer, less good-looking, and even sprains their back carrying a water bucket?”

“There were quite a few people, and I called them uncle, only to find out they were younger than me!”

Just thinking about it made Shen Shaojia’s vision go dark.

A man like Pei Jundu, who could find a partner in the research institute back then, was exceptional.

She had seen photos of Pei Jundu when he was young at Elder Pei’s place; no wonder Xuan Lengyue liked him in his younger days.

Shen Shaojia hadn’t mentioned Xuan Lengyue’s matters to Pei Jundu.

Elder Xuan also said that Xuan Lengyue wasn’t in good health and shouldn’t be agitated.

Pei Jundu nodded, “You’re still young, no rush to date. I’ll handle the issue from the research institute last time.”

“Can you manage? Boss Pei isn’t fond of the scheming in the research institute, is he?”

“Your matters, whether I like it or not, are all important.”

Shen Shaojia curved her lips.

After the meal, Qingwu had the kitchen pack some food, intending to bring it to Shen Zhongshuang, who was still in surgery.

Pei Jundu lifted his wrist to check the time, “Xiao Wu, I’m sorry, I need to borrow Jue from you. I’ll return him later.”

His tone made it seem like Pei Jue belonged to Qingwu now…

They were just engaged.

There was no need for Pei Jundu to consult her before taking Pei Jue away…

Yet Pei Jundu seemed to be speaking rightfully, and Pei Jue had no intention of objecting.

Qingwu just nodded, “As you wish.”

Pei Jundu patted Pei Jue on the shoulder.

“Come with me to pick up your grandma. She’s eager to come back after hearing about Shaojia’s matters.”

Pei Jue’s grandma lived in a nursing home for a long time, with a somewhat reclusive nature, and even her grandchildren weren’t always granted an audience.

Now, upon hearing about her most worrisome second son having a daughter, and wanting to see Pei Jue’s fiancée, she was eager to be discharged.

Pei Jue looked at Qingwu and explained gently, “I mentioned before, my grandma has a bad temper and I’m afraid she’ll frighten you, so I’ll hold off on introducing you for now. I’ll arrange it later.”

“Whatever works, I don’t mind.”,

Even Pei Jue and Pei Jundu were a bit nervous about meeting Elder Pei!

After all, Elder Pei was notoriously eccentric, and Pei Jue couldn’t be sure Elder Pei wouldn’t say anything unpleasant when meeting Qingwu.

It was better to meet her first and prep herself so she wouldn’t spook his fiancée!

…

Hospital, emergency department.

Qingwu placed the packed meal box on Shen Zhongshuang’s office desk.

Shen Shaojia pointed to the ward, “I think I just saw Grandpa Xuan. I’ll go check. Can you wait here for Second Brother? If any stranger talks to you, ignore them!”

Qingwu sighed helplessly, “I’m not three years old, sister.”

The Shen Family always treated Qingwu like a child, sometimes wanting to handle everything for her.

No sooner had Shen Shaojia left than Chen Jianhong came into the office.

“Smells amazing. I haven’t eaten either. Since Doctor Shen’s surgery will take a while, why don’t you let me have some!”

Qingwu replied calmly, “None for you. Hands off.”

“That’s too much!”

He handed Qingwu the prepared medical record, leaving tears wide as noodles, while secretly reaching for the meal box Qingwu prepared.

Qingwu didn’t look up, “The two boxes on the far left are yours; don’t touch the others.”

Chen Jianhong: “!!!”

He knew this girl wouldn’t leave him without food!

Qingwu’s eyes remained on the medical record in her hands.

She was a bit astonished, “So, my guesses were right. Aunt Xuan’s illness was due to external stimuli and drug reactions…”

Meaning, someone had been constantly agitating Xuan Lengyue’s spirit, causing her to collapse from time to time!
