Chapter 113: Turned Murderer (5)
Upon hearing this, Shi Yuting’s pupils narrowed and his heart trembled.
“What happened to her?”
Aunty Yu frowned and with a sense of urgency informed him, “A woman by the name of Jiang Tingmei is dead. The police suspect that she was killed by Miss Zuo. Miss Zuo has been brought to the police station and tomorrow morning, she will be brought to the First Prison…”
Her words made Shi Yuting’s chest tightened.
He had only been away for several days and such a thing had happened!
Jiang Tingmei was her half-sister. She was dead?
Who on earth dared to pin it on his woman?
“Young Master, if it’s convenient, could you come back? I heard the First Prison is a place where those who get in rarely escape from death…”
Even if it was not by the death sentence, she would be tortured by the prisoners who have formed cliques.
She could not imagine what would happen to Zuo Weiyi once she got in there.
Aunty Yu dared not imagine!
Upon hearing this, Shi Yuting’s hand tightened on his mobile phone and his face turned as dark as it could get.
If it was not the last resort, Aunty Yu would not have wanted him to come back, unless he did not care about the life and death of Miss Zuo.
“Yuting.”
A gentle voice was heard from behind.
Shi Yuting turned around and saw his mother, Shen Lanzhi, walking toward him.
Taking one glance at his mother, Shi Yuting looked down and told Aunty Yu. “I know what to do.”
He ended the call.
“Let’s go, your grandfather and the other guests are waiting for you.” Shen Lanzhi had taken this son of hers as her pride and today was his most dazzling moment. It was an important moment.
In a majestic ancient castle, a group of notable families and clans from all over the world gathered and Shi Yuting was today’s main character.
A myriad of stars was surrounding the moon but Shi Yuting’s heart was on the other side of the world, on Zuo Weiyi.
At this moment, where was that woman locked in?
At the thought of her being locked in a dark room alone, Shi Yuting’s heart felt constrained and uneasy.
“Brother!”
Seeing him spaced out, Shi Nuannuan could not help but remind him softly, “Grandfather is calling you…”
Hearing her reminder, Shi Yuting raised his head and saw Shi Le gazing at him. He seemed to be slightly surprised at his absent-mindedness.
Like Shen Lanzhi, Shi Le had always been proud of this grandson of his.
He was extraordinarily strict with his only grandson, not allowing a single mistake.
He believed that he was the one who had groomed such an outstanding grandson!
“What is on your mind?” The eighty-two-year-old Shi Le looked like a sixty-seven-year-old. He still looked majestic, authoritative, arrogant, and courageous.
“Nothing. There are some problems at Di Zun.”
“No matter what happens, you must complete today’s ceremony!” Shi Le’s face was cold and there was an irresistible poise in his tone of voice.
“Mommy, what is today all about?” Shi Nuannuan could not help but ask her mother.
She was very curious. What were they going to announce in such a grand banquet like today?
Shen Lanzhi turned around and smiled, looking at her daughter. As a mother, she had naturally heard the news.
She could not wait and so, revealed softly to her daughter. “Your brother has unofficially been designated as a candidate for the next president. Now, we only need to unite with the Tengtang family in marriage and the position of ‘president’ will belong to your brother.”
