Chapter 1923: The Incident Occurs

"Go see your stepmother; there will be fewer and fewer chances to see her in the future."

"Alright." Qiongsi nodded, feeling somewhat between laughter and tears.

Ximeng's death would certainly not cause him any grief, but he had not expected that the Grim Reaper would swing his scythe at her so quickly.

And the one who caused all of this was Chen Yu.

In the Shilaike Family hospital, Ximeng roared hoarsely, smashing expensive instruments to pieces.

"Trash, you are all trash. My body is clearly having problems, why can't you detect them?" Ximeng screamed, and she reached out her hand: "Draw my blood for an examination, quickly."

"Madam, we have already performed examinations for you. Your body is completely normal; there is not a single problem." A Yisheng said cautiously: "All examinations have been done; there is truly no illness."

"Shut up! I feel that my body has undergone changes; this cannot be wrong. You bunch of trash can't detect it, trash..." Ximeng grabbed a Yisheng: "Go, invite the best experts here for me immediately, immediately."

"Yes, I will contact the best experts to come over immediately." Several private Yisheng left here in a panic.

In fact, they did not know who to contact. After all, the Shilaike Family's private medical team was already a world-class, top-tier team. Ask them to find experts? What kind of experts should they find?

The level of most experts in Yizhou was probably not even as good as theirs, right?

But now these Yisheng were terrified by this woman's roaring; they wanted to escape quickly and leave this woman's clutches as soon as possible.

Several people hurried out and then discussed what to do next.

Ximeng stayed in the private hospital, dazed. Suddenly, she coughed violently. She felt a pain in her throat, and then the palm she used to cover her mouth was covered in fresh blood.

"Someone, come here, someone come quickly." Ximeng screamed.

The few Yisheng outside who were about to leave felt a headache. They looked at each other, not knowing whether they should pretend they didn't know anything and leave.

But no one wanted to go back and endure that woman's fury; after all, she was someone who could take a life if she was displeased.

"Yisheng Shigeer, take your team and leave." Just at this moment, Qiongsi walked over.

"Young Master Qiongsi..." Several people hurriedly bowed slightly to Qiongsi.

"Go, I will handle the matters here," Qiongsi said.

"Yes, but Young Master Qiongsi, we have already performed a comprehensive examination for Madam, and no abnormalities were found in her body." A Yisheng said: "She... her emotions are very unstable right now."

"I know. She is my elder; she took care of me for so many years in place of my mother. I am very grateful to her. Rest assured, I will handle the matters here," Qiongsi waved his hand.

The few Yisheng did not insist any further. After all, facing the cold-blooded Ximeng, they would rather stay far away from this woman.

A sneer appeared on Qiongsi's face, and he pushed the door open and walked into the medical room.

"Quick, I vomited blood, you..." Ximeng raised her head abruptly. When she discovered that the person who came was Qiongsi, she was stunned: "Why is it you?"

"Why can't it be me, Ms. Ximeng?" Qiongsi revealed a meaningful smile.

"What are you doing here?" Ximeng stood up straight and put her hands behind her back; she was hiding the blood on the back of her hands.

In this state, she absolutely could not let Qiongsi know.

"No need to hide it." Qiongsi smiled slightly: "Madam, your current physical condition is very poor, isn't it? Before coming in just now, I had already learned about your condition."

"Those few Yisheng are the most professional. As the leaders of our Shilaike Family's private medical team, they have already surpassed most people in Yizhou and even the entire Western World."

"Things they can't solve, who else do you think you can rely on to solve?"

"Those bastards, they dare to leak my condition?" Ximeng said through gritted teeth: "They should all wait for me; I will definitely tear them to pieces."

"Hehe, saying these things now is useless. Ms. Ximeng, logically speaking, you took my mother's place, so I should call you mother just like that idiot Baier." Qiongsi smiled slightly: "But I have never called you that."

"Whether you admit it or not, I am the Matriarch of the Shilaike Family." Ximeng sneered: "You are the same as that trash father of yours."

"Hmm, perhaps. We are both the same." Qiongsi laughed: "But now, I have won. I am about to succeed as Head of Family. Lao Shilaike and the Elder Council have taken action to clear all obstacles for me."

"Don't be complacent too early. You should sit firmly in that position first. Our Roy Family will not sit idly by either," Ximeng said coldly.

"Do you really think their hands can reach that far? Haha, Ximeng, you are too naive. To the Roy Family, you are nothing but a chess piece."

Qiongsi laughed loudly: "Since you are a chess piece, you can be discarded at any time. Now Lao Shilaike has already mobilized all the power of our family. Do you think your maternal family will risk a full-scale war with the Shilaike Family to protect you?"

Ximeng was trembling with anger, yet she could not refute it because what Qiongsi said was the truth.

"The Roy Family will definitely have a backup plan, even if I have lost now."

"Then I will wait for their backup plan. However, you really shouldn't hold too much hope. In the past, your actions against our family were all carried out secretly." Qiongsi laughed: "I'm afraid that won't work now, because the new Head of Family is taking office, and the family must clear away all obstacles."

"And even if I really failed this time, do you really think Lao Shilaike and the Elder Council would allow a fool to run the family? What a joke."

"What exactly do you want to say?" Ximeng roared: "I don't have time to talk nonsense with you now."

"Your body seems to be very weak," Qiongsi said with a smile.

"Is this your doing?" Ximeng's expression changed slightly. She looked at Qiongsi with an expression of disbelief: "What did you do to me?"

"Don't be so agitated. I didn't do anything. The reason your body is like this might be because you did too many bad things in the past, and God can no longer bear to watch." Qiongsi laughed loudly: "Someone like you was meant to go to Hell, wasn't it?"

"Shut up!" Ximeng shouted: "Leave here, immediately, get out."

"Hehe, I'm afraid that won't do." Qiongsi shook his head: "I am the Patriarch of the Shilaike Family; I have the right to stay anywhere in the Shilaike Family."
