Ji Chen, who was following behind the two of them, stepped forward and said quickly, “This is Mr. Si from the Imperial Group, and this is Mrs. Si. Mr. Si and the boss of your taxi services are good friends. I believe you have heard of this before.”
The taxi driver’s eyes narrowed. “Are you guys… threatening me right now?”
Ji Chen waved his hands hurriedly. “We aren’t threatening you. How about this? You can let Hu Zi know of our identities. Also, tell him that Mr. Si is willing to settle all his problems for him and offer him a sum of money, as long as he tells us who is the one who instructed him to hit Mrs. Si’s mother with a car back then.”
The taxi driver paused for a moment before raising his head and glancing at these people’s clothes. He knew that he actually had absolutely no choice right now. At last, he nodded. “I will only pass the word on to him. I won’t be involved in the rest of the matter.”
Zhuang Nainai’s eyes lit up instantly. She gave a phone number to the taxi driver straight away. “Please pass this phone number to Hu Zi and let him contact me.”

At the Gu residence.
Detained on the second floor, Li Yufeng could not get a wink of sleep last night.
Yesterday, she was interrogated by the three of them, but she did not speak the truth. She really could not reveal everything at present. She had to wait for a suitable timing.
However, she was extremely anxious right now.
Especially after she heard the car’s engine outside, she panicked immediately. She ran to the window and peered outside, only to see Gu Deshou leaving with Gu Xingshan.
She walked toward the door hurriedly and knocked on it. After a while, Gu Xinghao’s voice could be heard. “Mother, what do you want?”
“Where are your dad and sister going?” Li Yufeng asked anxiously.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xinghao paused for a moment before answering, “Mother, just mind your own business.”
As soon as he said this, Li Yufeng seemed to have realized something. She knocked on the door and said, “Quick, go and stop them! Xinghao, don’t let them meet Mi Nuo! Don’t let your dad fight Mi Nuo!”
After hearing this, Gu Xinghao frowned. “Mother, I know that you are very hurt by the fact that my dad is searching for that woman outside. I can even understand if you keep a gigolo, but you… Sigh. That woman Mi Nuo is so evil and she harmed Sister. Why are you still protecting her? If you really like young girls, I can find you a young and tender small celebrity, okay?”
Li Yufeng: “…!!”
Li Yufeng felt suffocated because she could not explain herself. She knocked on the door. “Open the door and let me go out!”
Gu Xinghao replied, “Even though Dad has done a lot of wrong deeds in the past, we are standing on Dad’s side this time. Mother, I’m going to go play games!”
He left after saying that.
Li Yufeng was really sitting on pins and needles in the room. If she did not explain some of the things clearly to them, they wouldn’t believe her. However! She really could not explain those things to them right now.
After pacing around the room for a while, she picked up the phone and called Mi Nuo. “Nuonuo, Gu Deshou and Xingshan are going to look for you right now. You must keep your cool. Now is not the right time to expose everything. Nuonuo, you must not do anything foolish!”
Mi Nuo was taken aback on the other end. “I know. The situation is bad enough. We can’t lose our final hope to turn the tables around. Don’t worry, I know what to do.”
After hearing her voice, Li Yufeng paused before saying, “Nuonuo, if you have really reached a dead end, then just go and find… them.”
