Yuan Shu asked, Do I not smile that often?

Zhang Zhang shook his head. Thats different. Although you smile often, your gaze is cold. But now, when even your eyes are filled with joy, only then do you really seem happy.

Yuan Shu nodded, as if she understood.

She had been the head of the household for so many years and had handled everything in an orderly manner. The smile on her lips had already become the facade that made her seem amiable but could also intimidate others.

Therefore, she had forgotten what a genuine smile looked like.

Yuan Shu saw vitality and free-spiritedness in Zhang Zhang. Her happiness seemed to be contagious and could make everyone around her happy. Now, Yuan Shu understood why s.h.i.+ Lu only became friends with her out of everyone in the entire entertainment industry.

In a villa in Africa, the private doctor removed the bandage on s.h.i.+ Xiaos body. The wounds on his body that couldnt scab previously because of the tropical rainforest climate had finally scabbed over. The edges of the scabs were slightly raised, and the flesh inside was growing. It seemed that his injuries were no longer a problem and wouldnt affect his movements.

The private doctor said, Boss, with the current healing speed of the wound, it wont affect our plans even if were at a high alt.i.tude. It wont rupture. Just to be safe, we can take a plane back to the country in three days.

s.h.i.+ Xiao nodded coldly.

Ever since the s.h.i.+ family found him and they came out of the tribe in the depths of the tropical rainforest, s.h.i.+ Xiao could clearly feel that his wound was healing. In addition, the private doctor had been applying medicine for nearly a month. No matter how slow his recovery was, there wouldnt be that big of a negative impact.

After the private doctor finished applying the medicine, he took the medicine box and left. Zhao Cheng waited for the private doctor to leave before coming in. Young Master, just as you expected, as soon as the news of him returning to the country spread, everyone became impatient to take action.

s.h.i.+ Xiao sneered and put on his coat. What about Yuan An?

Madam specifically asked Zhao Mian to conduct a thorough investigation a few days ago and investigated all the people in the company. She fired three people. Theres no problem with the company at the moment. Zhao Cheng had changed the way he addressed her.

The fact that Yuan Shu had actually led Zhao Mian to investigate the company was beyond s.h.i.+ Xiaos expectations. What surprised him even more was that the current Yuan Shu seemed to be different from the Yuan Shu he knew.

What exactly had she experienced?

Go and get ready. Well be back in the country in three days.

Zhao Cheng immediately agreed, but then he thought of something. Young Master, what about Miss Lin Xi?

Lets bring her back together. Didnt I ask you to investigate her background? Hows it going?

Zhao Cheng had already prepared the information and handed the tablet to s.h.i.+ Xiao. This is the information Zhao Mian found. In the nearby mountains, there was indeed a missing girl who looked similar to Miss Lin Xi. She should be Miss Lin Xi. However, theres no one else in Miss Lin Xis family. Her only kin, her grandma, pa.s.sed away three months ago.

s.h.i.+ Xiao flipped through all the information, but there was nothing suspicious about her background.

Lin Xis eyes, which were always like those of a frightened deer, surfaced in s.h.i.+ Xiaos mind. Even if it was to repay her kindness, he should be responsible for this girl.

Inform Zhao Mian to prepare a residence and necessary supplies for Lin Xi. Since theres no one else in her family, she can stay in the s.h.i.+ familys home.

Zhao Cheng was obviously a little hesitant. If it was a month ago, he, who didnt know much about the s.h.i.+ familys current situation, naturally hoped that Young Master would divorce Yuan Shu as soon as he returned. But now, he knew that Yuan Shu had done so many things for the s.h.i.+ family and had taught the three young masters diligently, so he slowly accepted this Madam of the s.h.i.+ family.

Hence, he asked, If we bring A/Iiss Lin Xi back, what about Madam?

This was also what s.h.i.+ Xiao was worried about. Based on what he knew about Yuan Shu in the past, if they were to get a divorce, she would definitely cry and cause a scene. This would make things easier to resolve. However, Yuan Shu was calm and composed now. What excuse should he use to divorce her?

In fact, he was even looking forward to Yuan Shus reaction when she saw Lin Xi..
