Chapter 958: Startling Change in Beijing

Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng stayed at Lahaisen Hospital for a week. When they returned to Beijing, they realized that during their absence, the city had gone through startling changes.

The Qin family had undergone a large change. This meant that many things had changed in Beijing.

Qin Hongzhi died. As a result, Qin Chuan became the Head of the Qin family. In addition, Qin Yufan became ill and was hospitalized.

All of this happened too suddenly.

As soon as Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng arrived in Beijing, the two of them were taken to the Zhai Residence by people sent by Master Zhai.

In the Zhai Residence, Master Zhai’s face was grave as he told the two of them:

“A Sheng, go and travel with Yiling. Go and find your uncle. Don’t stay in Beijing for the time being.”

Master Zhai wanted Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling to leave Beijing.

“Well, let us know the reason why you want us to leave Beijing,” Zhai Yunsheng replied. Naturally, he was not going to just accept his grandpa’s request.

Jian Yiling nodded her head. She had the same opinion.

“Qin Hongzhi died. He died after he ate the medicine Jian Yiling sent over,” Master Zhai replied with a heavy voice.

“And so, the Qin family suspects that Yiling’s medicine was the cause of Qin Hongzhi’s death? Are they assuming that’s what went wrong?” Zhai Yunsheng sneered.

This was hilarious.

“Mhmm,” Master Zhai replied as he nodded. “I’ve talked to the Qin family. They want me to hand over Yiling.”

Then, Master Zhai said to Jian Yiling: “Yiling, you don’t need to worry. I will not hand you over. The Qin family had internal conflict in the first place. And now, they’re blaming it on your medicine! They must be dreaming if they want you to take the blame!”

Master Zhai believed in Jian Yiling’s character and medical skills.

He was 100% sure that Jian Yiling’s medicine was not the cause of Qin Hongzhi’s death.

There was definitely another reason for Qin Hongzhi’s death.

“I didn’t do anything wrong. I’m not going to run away,” Jian Yiling replied.

Master Zhai’s words were meaningful and heartfelt as he explained: “Yiling, I’m not asking you to run away. Instead, I don’t want the Qin family to make petty maneuvers in the dark. I don’t want them to do anything to hurt you. Anything else is okay. I’m not scared of anything. I’m just scared of you two getting hurt.”

Master Zhai was not afraid of conflict with the Qin family. Even if the two families were to go head to head, they were not necessarily weaker.

However, he refused to let Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling encounter any danger.

That was his bottom line.

Furthermore, Beijing was filled with the Qin family’s influence. It was way too dangerous for the two of them to stay here.

“I’ve already contacted your second uncle. He’s going to send a plane to pick you guys up.”

Master Zhai felt that it was safer to send Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling to Country Y. The Second Master of the Zhai family would be able to protect them.

“I’m not going,” Zhai Yunsheng refused decisively.

“A Sheng!” Master Zhai frowned. After a pause, he said: “A Sheng, I’m okay with you doing anything else. However, this is related to your life. Please listen to me just once.”

“Well, since it’s related to us, we should deal with it ourselves. If we just leave, then we will leave all the trouble to you. I refuse to do that,” Zhai Yunsheng replied.

“Then do you not care about Yiling’s safety? The Qin family is incredibly unreasonable! They’ve all decided that Yiling killed Qin Hongzhi. They may come for revenge at any time.”

Upon hearing this, Jian Yiling replied: “I’m not scared. I can handle it.”

“Ahhh, the two of you… Why…” Master Zhai exclaimed anxiously.

“Grandpa, just leave this matter to the two of us,” Zhai Yunsheng said to Master Zhai.

“Ah!!! I swear I’m going to die from being angered by the two of you!” Master Zhai cried out helplessly.
