The abandoned daughter of a wealthy family turns out to be a lucky charm, changing the fate of her e

Shen Zhi was awakened by a rustling sound. The little girl hummed a few times, peeked out her two soft, white arms from under the covers, and yawned.

I slept so well~

Shen Zhi opened her eyes and was instantly stunned.

Why are there so many people gathered around the bed?

Her small room is almost too small to fit everyone...

Shen Mobai sat on the edge of the bed, casually taking off his suit jacket and tossing it on a chair not far away. His shirt sleeves were rolled up to his forearms, as if he had rushed over from somewhere.

Shi Yue lay on the edge of the bed with red eyes. Shen Zhi pulled her hand away and realized that her hand had been held by Shi Yue the whole time.

Shi Yue suddenly met Shen Zhi's blinking big eyes, and before she could react, Zhi Zhi pounced on her.

"Mommy... Daddy... Zhizhi misses you so much~"

The little girl called out in an exceptionally sweet voice, as if she had been ill and had become even more clingy than before.

Shen Zhi tilted her head, shifted her small body under the blanket, and buried her head directly into Shen Mobai's chest.

Just like a wronged kitten, it frantically rubbed its furry head against them.

After a few seconds of stunned silence, Shi Yue decisively hugged Shen Zhi back.

"My precious Zhizhi! Mommy's darling!"

She was truly wronged this time, otherwise Zhizhi wouldn't have been so clingy to her.

The moment everyone learned that Shen Zhi had woken up, they swarmed around her, pushing Shen Mobai, who was originally at the front, to the very back.

Shen Linchuan: "Zhizhi, where do you feel unwell? Tell your older brother."

Shen Yunzhou spoke faster than usual: "Little sister, how are you feeling now? Let your second brother take your pulse."

Shen Xingye's voice was muffled, as if he had just been crying: "Little Gardenia—you're finally awake! Third brother was almost scared to death... Waaaaah!"

Shi Qi: "Zhizhi, little uncle wants a hug~"

The sounds hummed and overlapped, making it a bit noisy, but Shen Zhi found it exceptionally pleasant to listen to.

These are the voices of her family who care about her; they are all proof of their love for her.

Shen Zhi leaned softly against Shi Yue's chest, her eyes glistening with tears yet also with a smile.

She's so happy!

She used to be captivated by the flickering, firefly-like light of the Lu family home, mistakenly believing that was all the light an adopted daughter could obtain.

But she never imagined that someone could give her such selfless and passionate love, more intense than the summer sun and warmer than the winter sun.

Old Master Shi was the first to calm down. He gently pressed her pulse with his fingers, his voice steady but carrying a barely perceptible tension:

"Your pulse is steady. Zhizhi, are you still dizzy? Do you still feel nauseous?"

Shen Zhi obediently shook her head: "I'm not dizzy anymore, but I'm hungry."

The little girl's voice was still a little hoarse, soft, like she was holding a marshmallow: "I want to eat Grandma's sweet porridge~"

Grandma Shi smiled through her tears and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, Grandma is making it for you. I'll have Auntie bring it over for you right away."

"Mmm!" Shen Zhi waved her two slender, lotus-root-like arms, making a large circle in the air. "Zhi Zhi wants to drink this big bowl!"

After saying that, she chuckled, her eyes crinkling, and her dimples were faintly visible at the corners of her mouth.

The others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that she had the energy to laugh.

Shi Yue didn't say anything, but silently tucked her hand back into the blanket and tucked the blanket in a little more.

She still can't bear to think back to how scared she was when she first received the call.

Shen Zhi was wrapped up like a little rice dumpling, with only her small face, no bigger than the palm of her hand, showing.

She sensed that Shi Yue was in a low mood, so she rubbed her cheek against Shi Yue's hand and said softly:

"Mommy isn't sad, Zhizhi doesn't hurt anymore."

Shi Yue smiled, her eyes reddening, a deep emotion welling up inside her. She murmured a few times, but ultimately said nothing.

If possible, she hoped that Zhizhi could be a little more mischievous.

Just like today, I'll snuggle up in her arms and act spoiled.

Shen Mobai put his arm around his wife's shoulder and gently rubbed Shen Zhi's cheek with his other hand.

The force was so light, as if afraid of breaking something fragile.

Shen Linchuan placed the little star in his hand next to Shen Zhi's pillow:

"Zhizhi, this is the lucky star you gave to your big brother. Now I'm returning it to you. More than luck, I hope you get well soon."

"Yes! You can have mine too!" Shen Xingye quickly took out the perfectly preserved little star from his pocket.

Shen Yunzhou also placed his star next to his pillow.

The three older brothers huddled together, their heads filled with the same anticipation.

Shen Zhi's eyes darted back and forth between the adults in the room.

She felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange, and everyone's expression was complicated.

It's like... it's like they're going to beat someone up.

Unbeknownst to her, while she was unconscious, Shen Mobai and Shi Yue had already decided to fight the Lu family to the end.

Five hours ago, in the Shi family's living room.

Upon receiving the news, Shen Mobai rushed from Jiangcheng to Suzhou and stayed by Shen Zhi's bedside overnight.

None of them expected that the grudges of the previous generation would involve Shen Zhi.

Madam Lin is Madam Lu's biological mother, and Lin Zhu is Madam Lu's biological younger sister.

First, the Lu family framed the Shen family's medicinal herb field, intending to steal their wealth;

Later, the Shi family plotted to poison the old lady, intending to kill her.

What a deep-seated hatred this must be, to make them hunt down and kill you.

The three of them teamed up to deal with the Shi and Shen families, and they had turned a blind eye to it all these years, but this time they almost killed Zhizhi... Just thinking about it made the fire in Shi Yue's chest burn again.

In the living room, Shi Yue's eyes were as dark as night.

"Mo Bai," Shi Yue said without turning around, her voice unusually calm, "what's the progress of our new drug development?"

Shen Mobai glanced at her and understood what she meant:

"Dr. Jiang has completed the final stability tests, and the efficacy is ten times that of similar products on the market. It was originally scheduled to be launched next month."

"Next month?" Shi Yue turned around, raising an eyebrow slightly. "Too slow."

Shen Mobai remained silent for two seconds.

Shi Qi interjected, shoving his phone into his pocket: "Sis, brother-in-law, I investigated the Lu family today. Their new drug, which they claim has a revolutionary breakthrough, is actually just an old formula with different packaging."

He sneered, "With this much, they still dare to boast that they want to seize 80% of the Jiangcheng market."

Shi Yue didn't speak, she just looked at Shen Mobai.

Shen Mobai pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "This Friday. The new product launch will be on the same day as the Lu family's."

Shi Yue's eyes lit up.

"The same day?" Shi Qi was also surprised. "Brother-in-law, are you going to go head-to-head with us?"

Shen Mobai didn't say anything more, but everyone present knew his decision.

Bullying Shen Mobai's daughter? You're asking for death!

After making a call to the marketing department, Shi Yue dialed Jiang Lian's number:

"Dr. Jiang, I need your help to cultivate some of the previously failed seedlings."

Jiang Lian, on the other end of the phone, only knew that Zhizhi was sick, and that President Shi and President Shen had suddenly rushed to Suzhou.

Hearing about this task suddenly, I was completely baffled.

Shen Mobai understood.

People like the Lu family would definitely steal the new drug at any cost once they know its effects.

They are so eager to learn, how could the Shen Group let them down?
