Chapter 598 Tried to kill me
Shen Tian trailed off and Ji Shan's nerve ending got triggered even more. She struggled against the hold of the guards and screamed, "What are you doing? I am the young miss of the Shen family! Stop manhandling me like a criminal, grandma! Grandma! Help me!"
But this time Grandma Shen didn't say anything, Ji Shan's reactions have caused Old madam Shen to look at her differently. Now that she carefully thought about it, how did she suddenly become sick all of a sudden and worse even started to cough and sputter blood clots? And even if she was incredibly sick, how did her cousin find out and even snuck his granddaughter into her house?
Everyone else at the scene too remembered the thing that Shen Zizhen just said a few minutes ago and they already knew what the outcome of this matter was going to be, they didn't even need a foreteller to tell them about the future.
Just then Shen Zizhen's subordinate started reading the letter, as he loudly announced the content of the letter to the world, " Congratulations Ji Shan on becoming the granddaughter of the Shen family, I would like to come and wish you well but I fear that I will arise suspicion if I were to come in and out of your place. However, I want to remind you that the reason you could become the Shen family's granddaughter was because of me, I have worked hard and I have tried my best to get those slow-acting pills down that old woman's throat, I don't want to waste my efforts so no matter what remember who helped you reach the spot where you are now and continue what I have been doing, I need you to keep slipping in the slow-acting poison in that old woman's food undetected, make sure that she kicks the bucket as soon as possible because our secret won't be hidden for long…your grandfather Ji."
Old madam Shen's eyes widened as she turned to look at her brother and granddaughter.. these two people have actually lied to her? And they even tried to harm her like this? For what? What wrong did she do to them?
However, Old man Ji's attention wasn't on Old madam Shen, he was busy glaring at Ji Shan. This idiotic girl, he asked her to burn the letter and yet she kept them? Was she waiting for Shen Zizhen to come and kick them out of the Shen family with all drums and gongs? Or why else she would keep those letters at hand? Wasn't this just being stupid?
Ji Shan lowered her head, she knew that this time it was her fault. Because she was worried that her grandfather would chuck her off the cliff, if she made a mistake, that was why she kept holding on to the letters as her backup plan who would have thought that something like this would happen to her because of the mistake that she committed?
But her regret didn't even solidify before the subordinate took out another letter and read it aloud once again. " Grandfather, I know that you want me to finish the task at hand quickly but the old witch is stronger and resilient than I expected her to be even after consuming poison for so long she is still here? Can I increase the amount of dosage in her meals? It's such a drag to let her keep hanging on for so long why not just let her kick the bucket this month? I am thinking of increasing the amount to five mg from two mg, it will be all right… she is too tough anyway, she will digest it without anyone knowing anything."
This time it was Ji Shan's turn to be stunned as she turned to look at her grandfather who lowered his head in embarrassment. Just like Ji Shan, he was keeping the letters in his hands so that he will be able to use them at the right time but who would have thought that these hands would fall into Shen Zizhen's hands?
Though he was surprised, he was more shocked at the fact that Shen Zizhen was able to trespass into his house and bring these letters out of his secret safe where he was keeping them, how did he realise that he was hiding them in there?
Everyone looked at Ji Shan as the subordinate headed to Old madam Shen and handed her the letters, of course, she was very familiar with the writing on the pages having read it many times before. When the guests saw the expression on the face of old madam Shen become worse and worse, they all sucked in a breath and felt a chill run up their spine. Even if they couldn't see the seal on the letter, Old madam Shen's dark expression was enough to let them know that the letter must have been written by Ji Shan and old man Ji.
The guests all shuddered thinking about just how ruthless and devious these grandfather and granddaughter were, they were willing to bite the hand that was feeding them and that too without any hesitation whatsoever!
All of the guests turned to look at the Ji family who were kneeling on the floor meaningfully, these people it's better to stay away from them who knows when they might just stab one in the back?
Old Madam Shen who was schemed against shivered with fury, her expression turned heavy as she turned to look at the Ji family and this time there was no sympathy in her eyes for the Ji family and her ex going to be adopted granddaughter.
" You guys are pure evil! For the sake of a few meagrely sum of money, you were willing to kill me? How shameless can you be? How can you guys be this ruthless towards me, what have I even done to you?"
P.s please support my work, it motivates me… or else it feels to lonely here
