Chapter 28: Outbreak

"Sorry, I'm not interested in this project."

Inside the president's office of the Shi Group, Shi Heng sat with his legs crossed, leaning back in his swivel chair, and said expressionlessly.

"President Shi, please reconsider! We are the only Aid Africa Foundation in China that has obtained approval. With your help, tens of thousands of impoverished children in Africa will receive help, especially the people in the Sozali Republic who are in the flames of war, who can also receive temporary relief and resettlement. This is a work of immeasurable merit!"

Hearing the words "Sozali," Shi Heng's face turned even gloomier.

Shi Yi had been in that ghost place for a month, and there had been no news at all. Not a single phone call had been made.

However, Shi Heng hadn't taken the initiative to contact Shi Yi either. This time, running away from home was her own choice. Even if she tossed her little life away, she deserved it.

There was a path to Heaven, but she didn't take it; there was no door to Hell, but she insisted on breaking in!

He, this big brother, had already done his best.

"Sorry, I'm a businessman, not a philanthropist."

Shi Heng snorted coldly, then waved his hand, saying bluntly: "Sun, see the guests out!"

Just as the people from the Aid Africa Foundation left, the phone on Shi Heng's desk rang.

Shi Heng answered the phone impatiently.

"Hello."

The voice of the nervous receptionist came from the phone, "President Shi, Doctor Su Yichen from the People's Hospital is here to see you again."

"Su Yichen? Why is he here again? Tell him to get lost, didn't I tell you, he's not welcome here!"

"President Shi, I told Doctor Su, but he wouldn't listen at all and insisted on breaking in! The security guards went up to stop him, and Doctor Su is now fighting with the security guards in the lobby, and many, many people... are watching."

The receptionist's voice couldn't stop trembling.

Shi Heng cursed in his heart, then gritted his teeth and said: "Let him in first!"

He wanted to see what on earth that Su guy was going crazy about again.

Two minutes later, the door to Shi Heng's office was pushed open with a "bang." Su Yichen walked in with a bruised face, a line of blood still hanging from the corner of his mouth. His suit was disheveled, and the lenses of his glasses were broken, but the brown eyes behind the lenses were as sharp as if they were going to shoot knives.

Shi Heng frowned. He had never seen this usually weak scholar show such a fierce expression.

"Shi, please explain to me, what on earth is going on?!"

Su Yichen slapped a report on Shi Heng's desk.

Shi Heng took the report. It was a CT report with Shi Yi's name on it. In the middle was the CT scan image, which he couldn't understand, so his gaze jumped directly to the conclusion at the end.

"Missing left kidney?!"

Shi Heng's pupils contracted violently.

"What do you mean?! You mean... Shi Yi's left kidney is missing? What on earth happened to her?"

"What on earth happened to her? Isn't that what I should be asking you?!"

Su Yichen's eyes were burning with fire.

"Shi Heng, five years ago, your whole family forced me to give false testimony for Xiao Yi, sending her to prison, saying it was atonement because she blinded her sister's eye when she was a child, and even threatened me with my future, and even my life! I betrayed my conscience, betrayed Xiao Yi's trust in me, and agreed to you! At the time, I only made one request, and that was to ensure Xiao Yi's safety. Is this how you guaranteed it to me!"

Su Yichen's crazy output left Shi Heng stunned.

He stared at the words on the report, as if his brain couldn't think anymore. It took a long while before he had to accept a fact—Shi Yi was missing a kidney, and her kidney was very likely removed by someone while she was in prison!

"I... I don't know about this."

Shi Heng's gaze was dull. He couldn't digest this heavy news for a while.

"Heh, you don't know? That's a prison! You tell me, who besides your Shi family could have such great power to reach into the prison?! You think I don't know that your whole family never liked Xiao Yi! You beat her until she was covered in wounds, forced her to admit her mistake, and when she didn't, you threw her into an orphanage for ten years! She finally got into college, and you personally sent her to prison, letting her suffer inhuman torture in prison! Is anyone in your Shi family even human anymore!"

"Shut your mouth!"

Shi Heng stood up and swept everything on the desk—teacups, documents, pen holders... all scattered on the floor with a clatter.

"I said, I don't know about this! Even if I, Shi Heng, am a beast, even if I'm not human, I wouldn't do such a thing. She is my own sister!"

Shi Heng's eyes were covered with a layer of bloodshot red at some point, the veins on his arms bulging, as if he were an angry beast with red eyes.

"Even if you didn't do it, can you guarantee it wasn't ordered by your old man? And that little sister of yours with the vicious heart, can you guarantee it wasn't her?"

Shi Heng gritted his teeth and clenched his fingers. Currently, he couldn't judge who had done this.

"I will investigate this matter to the end."

He suppressed the overwhelming anger in his heart and said with feigned composure.

"Hmph, even if you don't investigate, I will investigate to the end myself! And one more thing, Shi, I'm telling you, your whole family better not touch a single hair on Xiao Yi's head again! I will apply for the next batch of the international medical team to go to Sozali to find Xiao Yi and protect her by her side for the rest of her life!"

"Suit yourself."

Shi Heng said fiercely, "Get out of here now that you've finished talking!"

Su Yichen's figure soon left the president's office.

Immediately after, a sound of smashing things came from the office. Sun stood far away at the door, not daring to enter at all. The sound of the two arguing just now was too loud, and this entire floor was the president's office, so no one else heard it, only Sun heard it clearly...

The Second Miss was... missing a kidney?

And she was wrongly imprisoned?

Was it the Shi family who forced that Su guy to give false testimony?

Sun trembled all over. What kind of secret had he heard that he shouldn't have!

President Shi, President Shi wouldn't... find someone to dig a hole and bury him directly, would he?

Just then, a cold voice came from inside the office.

"Sun, come in."

Secretary Sun trembled with fear and walked into Shi Heng's office with small steps. He saw the office floor in a mess, and everything that could be smashed had basically been smashed into pieces... President Shi was hugging his arms, standing behind the desk, facing the window, his expression unclear.

"President Shi..."

"Go investigate."

Shi Heng's voice was terrifyingly gloomy.

"What on earth happened to my sister in prison these five years?!" ===== CHAPTER 29 =====
