Arriving at the hospital, Yang Chen noticed that the security presence had more than doubled since the day before. The Yuan family, concerned that Zhou Guangnian might resort to desperate measures to harm those they cared about, had bolstered their defenses.
However, it seemed unlikely anyone had anticipated Zhou Guangnian's sudden death in his own home. While the culprit remained unknown, Yang Chen surmised it was probably an inside job by someone in Dongxing.
At the entrance to the special care ward, Yang Chen recognized only one of the early visitors: Yuan Ye's mother, Yang Jieyu.
Upon seeing Yang Chen, Yang Jieyu stood up and smiled faintly, "Thank you for coming to see Xiao Ye so early. As a mother, I'm grateful for your concern."
"I don't have many friends, and he's one of them. I should check on him," Yang Chen replied, not in a hurry to enter. The peculiar vibe from Yang Jieyu made him curious to know more about her.
