Chapter 334 - Finding the Shooter (3)

"Yes, Miss Xinying!" The head of the security was stumped by her intelligent answer. He left her to visit the apartments as indicated by Feng Xinying. 

Xie Shengjun arrived a few minutes later. However, he came with the surgeon who had operated upon Xie Yuansheng. Feng Xinying sprang from her bed and went to them. "How is he doctor?" she asked. 

"Well, he is still unconscious… We will watch him for some more time. He should have come back to consciousness by now…" he replied looking dejected.

Feng Xinying's mind became numb. She felt as though she was about to faint. "How long do we wait?" she asked in a very low voice, almost scared of the answer. 

"Another twenty four hours…"

Feng Xinying's skin lined with goose bumps. She bit her lower lip in nervousness and caught the end of her dress. Was she about to enter the nightmare of her life?

Xie Shengjun, on the other felt winded. He held the chair in front of him and sat down. 

"Has his brain swelling reduced?" asked Feng Xinying after a short while. 

"It had reduced a lot, and that is why we are hopeful," he replied. 

"Okay…" she answered feeling positive again. 

The doctor left after telling a little more about the schedule of Xie Yuansheng's treatment. 

Feng Xinying went to fetch water for Xie Shengjun. When he drank it and felt better, Feng Xinying went to sit on the bed and started looking at the papers. She wanted to be occupied by what she had in front because she wanted to keep calm. Xie Shengjun was sitting quietly for sometime in order to collect his thoughts. Once he felt better, he said, "What is the name of the friend that Lim Chuen was talking about?"

"He did not disclose the name," she said. After a pause she said, "I see that Lim Chuen's news is on TV. Is there any reaction from his family?"

Xie Shenjun scoffed, "I didn't expect that the reaction would be so small from the family. I am disgusted in the family as much I am was with Lim Chuen." 

"Hmm… I suspected that much…" she replied. "His wife must have been aware of his multiple women." She paused and then asked, "Xie Shengun, what is the news of the company?" 

"The board of directors are wanting to know when will Xie Yuansheng get well and come back…" he replied with a heavy heart. 

Feng Xinying knew that those were the sharks. Even though they showed solidarity on the outside, inside they were looking for one mistake or one issue to put attack. She didn't say anything as again she started looking at those papers. After a while she asked Xie Shengjun, "Can you tell me who all knew about the meeting in the organization?" 

"Not many Xinying… as a matter of fact we had kept it such a secret that only a handful knew. After Ho Rad was eliminated, we made things even more discreet. It was important to kill Su Lang because we had come to know of his connection with Lim Chuen," answered Xie Shengjun. 

"Wait a second!" said Feng Xinying. "Lim Chuen said that Ho Rad was his man and he also said that it was a close friend who was into all the hostile takeovers and killings. Can you find out about all the close friends of Lim Chuen? I want to know about the close friends of his son and daughter-in-law also. Don't focus on the close friends of his wife. He wouldn't risk going close to them." 

Xie Shengjun tilted his head and said, "Do you think he would go and tell disclose about his partner to the world?"

"No Shengjun, I don't. That is why I am asking you to find out about them, otherwise I would have gone to his social media and found out everything. You have to use all your intelligence to find out about Lim Chuen's close associations from the past twenty years. He said one thing that his close friend's wife used to have sex with him often, so you should look for couples," she instructed. 

Xie Shengjun smiled. "That would narrow down the search. I did not know that Lim Chuen was such a womanizer. Being a prominent industrial he would find women who are of the same mentality and status."

"Why? They can be women of any status Xie Shengjun," said Feng Xinying wondering about the reason of his statement. 

"The news was that he did not let Lim De Zhi marry Chang Ling because of her low status. Do you think he would bed women like that?" asked Xie Shengjun.

"Well, what you say is right but there is a chance," she replied still doubting.

"Nope! There is not an iota of chance. I knew that bastard's nature," replied Xie Shengjun with a glint in his eyes. He got up to leave. 

Just before he closed the door, she said, "Shengjun, please come back along with Kiera if possible. I would love to have some company…"

"Sure Xinying," he said and closed the door behind him. 

Feng Xinying went back to her papers. After a while she felt like taking a walk outside and see Xie Yuansheng. When she reached the post-operative ward, the nurse allowed her to enter. She went and stood next to him and watched his face. "Can I touch him?" she asked the nurse. 

"No, Miss Xinying. His wounds are very severe and he has lost a lot of blood. It is critical that we keep him safe. When he is moved to the VIP room, you can even sleep next to him," the nurse said with a hint of humor. 

Feng Xinying nodded and once again silently talked to him, "Heal fast Shengu…" She left when the visiting time got over. While she was walking back, she got a call from the head of the security. "Young Miss, the shooter was on the fifth floor apartment right above the one that I showed you!"
