The man grabbed Shen Yin and threw her out of the emergency room. He himself sat on a chair by the side. He looked down at the woman on the ground, who was clearly indignant. “Speak. Who sent you? What was your motive for stealing Grandpa’s bag?”
“I already said that I didn’t steal it. I only helped to snatch it back from the thief. Your stupid bodyguards misunderstood, then you dragged me here.” Shen Yin stood up helplessly and rubbed her swollen wrist.
The emergency room’s red light suddenly lit up, and the man’s heart seized up. He was in no mood to interrogate the woman now. He bent down and propped his arms on his long legs, resting his forehead on them as if in prayer.
“Dad!” The woman’s noisy cries sounded in the long corridor. The man frowned and looked over coldly.

“Little Jing, how’s your grandfather?” A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses gently put his arm around the woman’s shoulders and let her lean against him weakly. The two of them were Lian Jing’s Second Aunt and Second Uncle, the Old Master’s second daughter and son-in-law.
“Grandpa is still being resuscitated.” Lian Jing glanced at them coldly before looking away.
Their two families had never been close. Over the years, they had only maintained the appearance of harmony.
“Dad will be fine!” Lian Jing’s Second Aunt, Lian’e, sobbed as she sat beside him. She tugged at his hand helplessly. “If anything happens to your grandfather, I won’t be able to go on living either!”
Lian Jing withdrew his hand smoothly and leaned back slightly to put some distance between them. He comforted her somewhat perfunctorily. “Second Aunt, there’s no need to go on like that. Grandpa is a lucky man. He will be fine.”
“Yes, Little Jing is right. Don’t cry. Your health is poor.” Lian’e’s husband, Fu Xiao, patted her shoulder and comforted her by letting her rest her head against him. Then, he looked suspiciously at Shen Yin, who was leaning against the wall with a blank expression. “Who are you?”
He looked at Lian Jing and then at Shen Yin. He sensed that the atmosphere between them was extremely tense.
“A passerby.” Shen Yin glanced at Lian Jing indifferently, rolled her eyes, and added, “A kind passerby.”
The lights in the operating theater finally turned off. The doctor pushed open the door and took off his mask. He smiled at everyone and said, “Congratulations. The patient is out of danger. Fortunately, he took the cardiac pill in time and received first aid. You can see the patient in a while.”
“That’s great!” Lian’e cried with joy. She trembled as she hugged Fu Xiao tightly.
“I’ll visit Grandpa later.” Lian Jing stood up and grabbed Shen Yin’s wrist again, forcefully pulling her away.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Hey, your grandfather is fine. Can’t you change your methods?” Shen Yin was careful this time. The moment his large hand grabbed at her, she flipped her wrist so that he could not grip her so firmly. This also made it easier for her to break free.
Lian Jing was silent for a moment. Incredibly, he yielded and said, “Come with me then.”
Shen Yin knew that she could not escape from this man before clarifying matters, so she decided to save her breath. She was also curious to find out just how rich and powerful the Lian family was.
Lian Jing brought Shen Yin into an empty ward. The door closed, instantly shutting out the noise from the hospital corridor.
The Lian family was indeed powerful. Along the way, no one in this huge hospital had dared to say a word.
“You haven’t answered my question. Why did you steal the bag?” Lian Jing looked down at the woman, who was more than a head shorter than him, his dark eyes probing hers.
He was like a sharp hawk, concentrating on its prey. If the person in front of him even had a single deviant thought, he would immediately extend his claws and end her.
“I’m already tired of saying that I didn’t steal it. If you have the time to stand here jawing at me, why not get your lackeys to check the surveillance cameras? With your ability, I’m sure you can do that.” Shen Yin did not care what he thought of her. He would not believe her even if she told the truth.
“We’re already investigating. If you dare to lie to me, I’ll make your life a living hell.” At that moment, the phone in Lian Jing’s pocket vibrated. One of his men had sent him a clear segment of the surveillance video.
