Phoenix Hospital.

This is the Royal Hospital located inside Fengming Palace, primarily responsible for diagnosing and treating members of the Royal Family, and usually overseeing the daily health care of the Royal Family's important personnel.

A minor examination every day, a major check-up every three days.

The body is the capital for battle, and it cannot be treated carelessly.

Though the sparrow is small, it has all its vital organs.

No matter how poor, the King must not suffer; no matter how bitter, the Royal Family must not endure.

Therefore, Phoenix Hospital is equipped with the most advanced medical instruments and the most skilled doctors.

Doctors who can enter the palace to treat the Emperor, Princess, or royal family—how bad can they possibly be?

So, when it was discovered that Dongguo Chenxi still had a heartbeat, she was immediately sent here for emergency rescue.

At the door of the ward, Zhong Tianque, Su Zhenlie, Sheng Jing, and others rushed over immediately.

Upon receiving the news, Shen Wuxiang also brought Shen Cong and his wife, Bai Suzhi, to the ward's entrance.

Shen Leyou's tragic death involves Dongguo Chenxi as one of the key figures; once she wakes up, the truth will finally be revealed.

Meanwhile, Zhong Tianque specially invited Dongguo Chenxi's parents, uncles, Dongguo Siqi, Dongguo Sixian, Zhao Yuzhu, and others.

This clearly aimed to disgrace Dongguo Chenxi, making her unable to raise her head within the family...

Sheng Jing surveyed the people around him, each harboring their own motives, and thought to himself that if Dongguo Chenxi is smart, it's best for her to continue playing dead and not wake up now.

Social death...might be even less bearable than actual death.

Clang!

The surgery chamber opened, and the attending physician, Dr. Wang, walked out, looked at Zhong Tianque at the front of the crowd, and said, "Your Highness, fortunately, Miss Dongguo has been saved."

"Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Wang." Zhong Tianque stepped forward, shook Dr. Wang's large hand, and 'gratefully' asked, "How is she now? Is she awake? Can she speak?"

Dr. Wang shook his head and said, "Miss Dongguo is seriously injured, and her body is extremely weak right now. It's best not to disturb her for a while; let her rest properly."

Zhong Tianque tightened his grip on Dr. Wang's hand slightly, 'concernedly' saying, "I'll just go in to take a look... just a look and then come out. That shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Dr. Wang felt the pressure on the back of his hand and dared not oppose the Prince's intentions, so he changed his response, saying, "No problem. However, it's best not to have too many people entering at once; the patient needs a quiet space."

"I understand." Zhong Tianque released Dr. Wang's hand and took the lead into the ward.

Others paid no heed to Dr. Wang's warning and all swarmed in like a hive.

Dongguo Chenxi lay on the hospital bed with several tubes, some thick and some thin, inserted into her body. Her forehead and face had been neat and bandaged, exposing only her facial features.

Upon hearing the commotion outside, she strained to open her eyes and saw countless people standing before her.

All were people she didn't want to see.

Dongguo Siqi and Zhao Yuzhu, filled with a mix of anger and pity upon seeing their daughter in such a state, were unsure how to speak when Bai Suzhi rushed up first.

She ran forward, grasped Dongguo Chenxi's hand tightly, and asked urgently, "Chenxi, tell me, who killed Leyou? Who killed my Leyou?"

The tragic death of her son left her in unbearable pain, yearning to find the killer and cut them into pieces immediately.

Dongguo Chenxi looked at Bai Suzhi with a face full of fear; she wanted to open her mouth to speak, but discovered her throat felt blocked by something.

No sound could come out, but tears flowed freely.

"Bai Suzhi, what are you doing?" Zhao Yuzhu, no longer caring about being angry with her daughter, rushed forward to pry Bai Suzhi's hand away, angrily reprimanding, "Didn't you hear what the doctor said? My daughter needs peace right now... don't scare her."

"I know, I know..." Bai Suzhi nodded repeatedly, tears streaming down her face, "I just want to ask... who killed Leyou."

"Chenxi, just tell me... say a name... I'm begging you..."

"Suzhi..."

Shen Cong saw his wife losing control and stepped forward to pull her away, saying, "Don't be agitated. Speak slowly."

He wanted to know the truth of the matter but was worried that his wife's attitude would agitate Dongguo Chenxi, and if anything happened, there would be a dead feud with the Dongguo Family.

Although the situation is not much better now...

Zhong Tianque merely stood aside coldly, without any intent to speak.

Shen Wuxiang, feeling helpless, stepped forward to take charge and asked aloud, "Miss Chenxi, I am Shen Wuxiang... Can you hear what I'm saying?"

"I can." Dongguo Chenxi's voice was dry and hoarse, like cracked earth.

"Don't be anxious... speak slowly." Shen Wuxiang patiently comforted her, "Can you tell me what exactly happened?"

"..."

Dongguo Chenxi painfully closed her eyes.

This question was challenging to answer.

What could she say?

What's there to say?

Shen Wuxiang knew what Dongguo Chenxi was concerned about, so he patiently persuaded her, "Shen Leyou is dead... did you know?"

"I didn't know." Dongguo Chenxi opened her eyes again and said, "Suddenly, an assassin burst into the room, trying to kill us..."

As if suddenly recalling something, Dongguo Chenxi's expression became fierce and twisted; she shouted hysterically, "No, the assassin wanted to kill Shen Leyou, but he wanted to kill me... Shen Leyou wanted to kill me."

"What?"

Upon hearing Dongguo Chenxi's narration, everyone was shocked.

The assassin intended to kill Shen Leyou, but Shen Leyou wanted to kill Dongguo Chenxi.

Why?

Soon, those smart enough understood what it was all about.

"Impossible." Bai Suzhi's mind was in chaos; her sanity was already disturbed by her son's death, and now hearing Dongguo Chenxi say that Shen Leyou wanted to kill her, she was naturally furious and cursed, "How could my son possibly want to kill you? You vile woman, seducing my son and now slandering him..."

"Bai Suzhi, you dare to curse my daughter; I'll fight you." Zhao Yuzhu also disregarded propriety, rushing forward to tear into Bai Suzhi.

"Wh*re, she is just a wh*re... If she hadn't taken the initiative to seduce my son, how would such a situation occur?"

"I might as well say your son attempted rape; my well-mannered daughter was harmed by your son... He even wanted to kill to silence; truly deserved death..."

"Zhao Yuzhu, I won't rest until I die with you..."

"Come on, who's afraid of whom... I'll give my life to get justice for my daughter."

------

Zhong Tianque watched the scene with a blank expression, but inside he was overjoyed.

Fight.

Fight hard.

Pull her hair, gouge her eyes...

Ah, that scratching face action is beautiful.

"Enough!"

Shen Wuxiang shouted angrily.

His voice, mixed with the thick Yin Yang Qi, instantly made everyone in the room dizzy and about to fall.

Even the two women who were clawing and hitting each other paused and were quickly pulled apart by their respective husbands.

Once the room quieted down, Shen Wuxiang fiercely stared at Dongguo Chenxi and asked, "You said Shen Leyou wanted to kill you?"
