Ming Zhenxing was taken aback and wanted to make sure, so he asked anxiously: "Which Zhou Sijie?"
"Who else can be the leader? Zhou Sijie from the Zhou family in the capital!"
The caller was the leader of the cultural troupe, and he was almost crying.
"Why are you crying? Tell me clearly. Why did you get poisoned when you were fine?"
Although Ming Zhenxing was surprised, he was more happy. If the situation didn't allow it, he would have wanted to sing a song.
To put it bluntly, Zhou Sijie’s poison was very good, wonderful, and just right!
"Leader, Zhou Sijie was poisoned on the roadside. Passers-by sent her to the hospital for emergency treatment. I just arrived at the hospital and I don't know the specific situation yet," said the leader of the art troupe.
"How could there be poisoning on the roadside? I'm going to the hospital now!"
Ming Zhenxing was very confused. Shanghai was quite safe, and Zhou Sijie was just a prostitute, so no one would harm her intentionally.
How could a good person be poisoned?
Ming Zhenxing hurried to the hospital, while Zhou Sijie was still rescuing him. The leader of the cultural troupe was sitting on a bench in the corridor of the hospital with a sad face, and saw him getting up hurriedly.
"how's it going?"
"It has been almost two hours since the rescue, but no one has come out and no one has asked questions."
The leader of the art troupe was really panicked. If Zhou Sijie died in Shanghai, he, as a leader, would definitely not be able to live with it.
"Where is the person who sent her here?" Ming Zhenxing asked.
"Sent to the hospital and left."
Ming Zhenxing frowned, feeling that everything was weird, and even thought of some idealistic things.
Has the Zhou family had a bad year recently and run into something dirty?
Otherwise, why would the grandchildren get into trouble one after another?
The door of the emergency room opened, and the doctor wearing a mask came out. Ming Zhenxing strode over and asked about the situation.
"The danger period has not passed yet. This girl is too ignorant. How can she eat oleander flowers? This flower is deadly."
The doctor took off his mask with a regretful expression. In fact, he said it politely because he was afraid of irritating the family members.
Judging from his many years of experience, Zhou Sijie was helpless.
"Oleander? Did she eat oleander?"
Ming Zhenxing was dumbfounded. It was only after he arrived in Shanghai that he realized that the oleanders that could be seen everywhere on the streets of Shanghai were actually poisonous flowers. Although they looked so beautiful, they could poison people.
Oleander is rarely seen in the north, but it is a very common street tree in Shanghai. However, the locals know that this flower is poisonous and will not make mistakes.
"When the patient was brought here, she had an oleander in her mouth, and there were a lot of toxins in her body. She probably ate several of them, maybe she wanted to suck the nectar?" The doctor sighed regretfully, "How ignorant!"
"She has lived in the north since she was a child and may not have seen oleander. Doctor, please be sure to save her!"
Ming Zhenxing thought of a reasonable explanation. There were almost no oleanders in the capital, so it was normal for Zhou Sijie not to recognize them.
This girl must have a bad mind. She actually stuffed unknown flowers into her mouth. She was really not afraid of death!
The doctor looked heavy and sighed. Ming Zhenxing's heart skipped a beat. There was something wrong with this expression!
"Family members should be mentally prepared. The poison of oleander is fatal. I'm afraid..."
The doctor didn't finish what he said, but Ming Zhenxing understood. Zhou Sijie was afraid that he might not be able to save her.
"The patient's heartbeat has disappeared!"
There was a cry in the ward, and the doctor immediately put on a mask and returned to the ward and closed the door.
Ming Zhenxing was not in a hurry now. He already knew the result, so there was no point in being anxious. Moreover, Zhou Sijie was asking for his own death and was out in the military area. The Zhou family could not blame him.
Half an hour later, the doctor came out and pronounced Zhou Sijie dead.
The nurse pushed Zhou Sijie out and covered her with a white cloth. Ming Zhenxing opened a corner and saw her pale face and sighed.
Ming Zhenxing, who returned to the military area, called Old Man Zhou to report.
"Old leader, you must be stronger, Si Jie...she accidentally ate oleander when she went out to play and was poisoned and died!"
Ming Zhenxing finished speaking in one breath and took the microphone away to avoid being hurt by Old Man Zhou's roar.
But it was quiet on the other end of the phone, because Old Man Zhou passed out after vomiting blood.
Old man Zhou, who suffered severe blows one after another, finally couldn't hold on any longer.
"Old leader, please forgive me and accept the change!"
Ming Zhenxing comforted him, but the voice from Zhou Hongchang's subordinate came from the other side of the phone: "The leader is not feeling well, please call back later."
"Okay, please take good care of the leader, alas!"
Ming Zhenxing's tone was very sincere, but after hanging up the phone, the corners of his mouth turned up, he sighed heavily, and said in plastic Shanghai dialect: "You've done evil!"
Ming Zhenxing felt relaxed, lit a cigarette, and puffed away.
After finishing a cigarette, the phone rang. It was Zhou Hongchang.
"Please tell me more clearly, why did Sijie eat oleander? Who did she go out with? Who was around when the accident happened?"
Zhou Hongchang's voice was hoarse, he paused several times in just a few sentences, and he kept coughing.
Ming Zhenxing didn't feel very good. He once truly respected Zhou Hongchang, but in recent years Zhou Hongchang's behavior has become more and more arrogant and high-profile. Maybe this is Zhou Hongchang's nature?
During difficult times in the past, Zhou Hongchang just suppressed his true nature and pretended to be better. Now that he is older and in a high position, the people around him are flatterers who flatter the old man so much that he forgets his true nature and loses his original intention.
"Sijie went out alone. The accident happened in the park on the roadside. No one was around at the time. It was a passerby who kindly sent her to the hospital. The old leader blamed me for not reminding Sijie that although oleander is beautiful, It’s poisonous, alas!”
Ming Zhenxing first criticized himself to avoid Zhou Hongchang from finding trouble again.
Zhou Hongchang did intend to find trouble, but before he could speak, he was choked. His heart was filled with panic and he had nowhere to vent his overwhelming anger.
Zhou Sijie is the granddaughter he values more. He originally planned to choose a well-matched high-ranking cadre to marry him, but with the current situation of the Zhou family, people outside are laughing. A child with a good family background will definitely not marry Sijie. He with a poor family background will definitely not marry Sijie. Look down on it.
And Old Man Zhou is unwilling to give up. He has come step by step from a cowherd boy to what he is now. Only he knows the hard work and blood and sweat he has put in. It is impossible for him to give up everything he has.
Although Shen Xiao had harmed Si Liang, this boy was indeed capable. If he could become his grandson-in-law and work hard for the Zhou family, he would be willing to forgive this boy.
Moreover, he inquired and heard that Shen Xiao and that bitch Tang Niannian were in a relationship. Such a good young man must not take advantage of Tang Niannian.
Zhou Hongchang still had confidence in his granddaughter. She was both talented and beautiful, smart and capable, and had a good family background. As long as Shen Xiao was not stupid, he would definitely choose Si Jie, but he never expected that his granddaughter would die before she left the army.
"flutter"
Zhou Hongchang, furious, spit out a mouthful of black blood and covered it with a handkerchief. At this moment, he felt deeply powerless. Is God really going to destroy the Zhou family?
"Zhenxing, is Tang Niannian in Shanghai?" Zhou Hongchang asked in a deep voice.
He had an intuition that his granddaughter's death had something to do with this bitch!
