The Obsessive Tycoon Claims the Deserted Heiress-Chapter 67 - 066: Yu Zhi is admitted to the hospital while Master Shi investigates
Chapter 67 - 066: Yu Zhi is admitted to the hospital while Master Shi investigates
The Yu Family's villa is located in the innermost part of Yin Heng Mansion, and to reach the community gate, one must pass through a long path from the hall.
The late autumn night is slightly chilly.
The evergreen trees on both sides of the road make subtle noises under the breeze, and the streetlights cast large shadows on the ground.
Yu Zhi adjusted her coat to cover the exposed skin on her neck. Somehow, she felt inexplicably cold all over, and even a bit weak.
Yu Zhi didn't think much of it, but her pace quickened significantly.
The closer she got to the community gate, the stronger the feeling of weakness became. She bent down, resting her hands on her trembling knees, her eyes dark and unclear.
Just then, several men suddenly dashed out from behind the shrubs and trees.
They held long ropes, burlap sacks, and a few sticks, clearly intending to approach Yu Zhi.
Yu Zhi's face darkened. She clenched her fists and stood upright, "Who sent you?"
Her voice carried a slight hoarseness, and her gaze was like snowflakes falling on someone in the dead of winter, cold and piercing, making people involuntarily shiver.
"This little girl can still stand?" One of the men with a scarred face was a bit surprised.
"Who cares, let's just take her away. It'll be bad if someone comes over later."
"Then tie her up first."
"..."
They spoke to themselves, not paying any attention to the 'helpless' little girl in front of them.
When the rope was getting closer and closer to Yu Zhi, she grabbed it and, with a reverse grip, strangled the man's neck.
Five minutes later.
Several men lay sprawled on the ground, their faces bruised and battered.
They hadn't recovered from the previous shock, staring blankly at the sky, unable to utter a word for a long time.
They didn't even know where their cries of pain and calls for help had gone.

Shi Wei leaned casually on the driver's seat, one hand propped on the car window, occasionally glancing towards the direction of the gate.
He opened his phone again, confirming there were no messages from her, and then leisurely lit a cigarette, puffing smoke.
In the mist, a familiar figure limped towards him.
Shi Wei furrowed his brow, extinguished the cigarette, and quickly got out of the car to meet her.
Only then did he notice her hair and clothes were in a disheveled state, covered in a layer of brownish-yellow dust everywhere.
"Zhizhi, does it hurt anywhere?" Shi Wei suppressed the violence in his heart, gently caressing her face.
His gaze carefully examined her from head to toe, afraid she might be injured.
Yu Zhi clung to his sleeve, throwing herself into his embrace, her voice as faint as a mosquito's buzz, "No strength left."
If it weren't for her willpower support, she would've collapsed into the cluster of bushes by now.
Shi Wei quickly carried her back to the car. As soon as he secured her seatbelt and moved away, she started to slide down, unable to sit upright.
"Zhizhi, I'll take you to lie in the back seat—" Shi Wei helped her unbuckle the seatbelt, but when he looked up, he couldn't say a word.
Yu Zhi, at some point, had already fainted. Her face was pale, devoid of blood, like a flower crushed by someone.
Shi Wei gently patted her face, his fingers trembling uncontrollably, "Zhizhi, don't be afraid, I'll take you to the hospital right away."
He placed her in the back seat, dialing a number while flooring the gas pedal, glancing back every so often to ensure she didn't fall down, only then heaving a slight sigh of relief.
Shi Wei drove the car into a downtown hospital. As soon as he got out, carrying Yu Zhi, several doctors and nurses rushed over with a portable gurney.
"No need." Shi Wei glanced at the gurney, still holding onto Yu Zhi without letting go.
The doctor had no choice and led the way to a VIP ward on the third floor.
He first examined Yu Zhi's pupils and then prepared to place a stethoscope on her heart to listen to her heartbeat.
But before the device could fall, his hand was slapped away. Shi Wei lifted his eyelids, slanted a glance at him, "Don't you know how to take a pulse?"
Doctor: "..."
After a moment of hesitation, he carefully placed his fingers on Yu Zhi's wrist.
"The pulse is fine. She must have taken some drugs that caused her to faint," the doctor gestured to the nurse behind him, "Take a blood sample for testing."
Shi Wei lowered his gaze slightly, his thick eyelashes concealing the emotions in his eyes, "How long until the results?"
"The quickest is half an hour."
Shi Wei responded, and after the nurse drew blood and the doctor left, he held Yu Zhi's hand, gently planting a kiss on her forehead like a feather.
He quietly watched her with lingering tenderness in his eyes, seemingly never growing tired of it.
Soon, Chen Cai entered the ward with a laptop, "Boss, the item you wanted."
Shi Wei opened the laptop on his lap, leaning back slightly, resting his chin on his hand as he seriously watched the screen.
This was what Chen Cai had obtained from Yin Heng Mansion, including surveillance footage at the Yu Family's entrance and the entire road from her home to the community gate.
"What's with this surveillance?" Shi Wei pointed at the screen, tilting his head to ask him.
He had personally seen Yu Zhi leaving the Yu Family, but there was no trace of her on that road; the footage remained unchanged.
"I asked, and the person in charge said their surveillance had a problem today."
"Huh, what a convenient time." Shi Wei sneered, switching the footage directly to the main entrance.
Once Yu Zhi in the footage was taken away by him, he slowed down the playback speed, scrutinizing each person coming out, not missing a single one.
Perhaps those people were too confident, as they drove a van out of the community gate without any disguise, even carrying a hint of arrogance.
Shi Wei pressed the pause button, "Have all the people in this vehicle arrested."
Their timing was too coincidental, and that conspicuously somewhat dilapidated silver van exposed them completely.
A strong intuition also made Shi Wei very certain that these were the perpetrators of tonight's events.
Chen Cai nodded, hesitating to speak, "Boss, what if it's not them, then what?"
"Catch them first and question later," Shi Wei was now determined, even if it meant wrongly capturing three thousand, he wouldn't let one go.
Since he'd spoken to this extent, Chen Cai had no choice but to comply.
He scratched his head and quickly made a phone call, daring not to delay, personally leading some men to capture them.
