Chapter 365 - Accusing Her of Murder (1/2)
When he heard Tengtang Xi’s words, Tengtang Li’s face turned sour. He suddenly thought of the engagement that was called off earlier this morning and knew that it must have something to do with that illegitimate child, Zuo Weiyi. How could the granddaughter of the Minister of Defense actually lose to a lowly illegitimate child who had no status at all? Wasn’t this simply a joke to the public?
As he thought about this, Tengtang Li looked at his beloved granddaughter before he said, “Don’t worry, I will send someone over to arrest Zuo Weiyi in a short while! I will press charges against her for manslaughter!”
“But s.h.i.+ Yuting will definitely protect her. Do you have a way to arrest her, Grandpa?” Tengtang Xi knew very well that s.h.i.+ Yuting would definitely have the capability to do so if he really wanted to protect his own woman!
“Don’t worry. As long as she has really hurt you, then Grandpa will definitely fight for justice for you even if I have to exhaust all of my power and connections! Although the s.h.i.+ family is very powerful, they also have a reputation and image to maintain. In the face of the evidence placed before them, they cannot simply protect and defend that woman even if they wanted to. Furthermore, they would also have to think about what the people in this country would think of them!”
As soon as she heard her grandfather’s answer, Tengtang Xi could not help but smile smugly. She could not wait for Zuo Weiyi to be locked up in the prison!

Later at noon, Shen Lanzhi brought some nouris.h.i.+ng stewed supplements with her as she came to the hospital with s.h.i.+ Nuannuan. As soon as they walked into the ward, they immediately realized that something was wrong with Zuo Weiyi today.
After resting and recuperating for more than a week, her complexion and health had clearly recovered a lot. However, she was lying in bed again today. What was the matter?
s.h.i.+ Nuannuan walked toward the bed and instantly saw the clear fingerprint marks on Zuo Weiyi’s neck. She frowned in surprise as she asked, “Weiyi, what happened to your neck?
That was obviously the mark of someone strangling her! Did something happen today?
As soon as she heard her daughter’s words, Shen Lanzhi put down the thermal flask in her hand before she turned around to look at Zuo Weiyi. She too saw the visible fingerprints on Zuo Weiyi’s neck.
Zuo Weiyi simply smiled at the mother and daughter paid before she said, “I am fine. I was just caught by a mad dog just now.”
Mad dog?
