“Of course I am, but I’m not…” Upon saying this, Mi Nuo immediately shut her mouth. She suddenly realized something.
When Zhuang Nainai pushed Ding Mengya down the stairs, she was still Gu Qingyan, Mrs. Si.
So, was Si Zhengting planning to let her completely replace Zhuang Nainai to become Gu Qingyan?!
But why was he doing this?
Mi Nuo widened her eyes and swallowed. It finally dawned on her. She knew that Zhuang Nainai and Si Zhengting had such a strong relationship. How was it possible that it would be ruined so quickly by her sowing discord?
So, this was how things stood.
He wanted her to go to the police station in Zhuang Nainai’s stead!
Upon thinking about it further, she felt that something was not right!
If he let her become Gu Qingyan only because of this, he could have simply protected Zhuang Nainai by not reporting the incident to the police. So what exactly was he trying to do?
Why exactly was he doing this?!
Moreover, Ding Mengya was fine even though she fell down the stairs. As Mrs. Si, Zhuang Nainai would at most be detained at the police station for a few days before being released. If Si Zhengting bailed her out, she would only have to have a chat at the police station.
So then, why was he doing this?
Reporting the incident to the police would only blow things up. Furthermore, it would only produce loud thunder but small raindrops!
Could it be that he had seen through her and Li Yufeng’s scheme? Was that why he was trying to send her to the police station on purpose?
That didn’t sound right either!
With Mr. Si’s status and means, he could destroy Li Yufeng and her within a snap of a finger, so why was he beating around the bush?! She claimed that she was Gu Qingyan, but Mr. Si surely had a thousand ways to not let her become Gu Qingyan. He could even divorce her straight away.
Why was he choosing the hard way and punishing her like this?
She could not wrap her mind around this. Just as she was in a state of confusion, two police officers grabbed her. She was stunned. “Mr. Si, you are well aware that I didn’t do it. You…”
Without even glancing at her, Si Zhengting stood up. “Since you have arrested her, please leave immediately.”
Yao Teng sensed Si Zhengting’s annoyance. With a wave of his hand, the police officers left the Si residence with Mi Nuo.
Raising her head, Mi Nuo pursed her lips tightly and stared at Si Zhengting. In those moments, she really could not read this man’s mind.
At last, she could only justify his behavior with this theory.
He still couldn’t let go of Zhuang Nainai, but Madam Ding had lost her memory and he wasn’t sure of the truth. Hence, he could not forgive her and he’d allowed Mi Nuo to become Gu Qingyan. However, he did not want to see her, so he planned to let her carry the charges for now?
If so, it’s fine.
Mi Nuo’s gaze was unwavering. She had worked hard for such a long time and she was just one step away from success. She would be released from the police station sooner or later. When that time came, she would still be Gu Qingyan. As long as Mr. Si didn’t mention divorce, she would still be Mrs. Si!
The sound of the sirens became softer.
After the sirens could no longer be heard, Si Zhengting stood up immediately and walked out.
Ji Chen could not help but remind him, “Mr. Si, a few media reporters, whom we have called, are doing a stakeout right outside the villa right now. If you go out right now, wouldn’t you be photographed?”
As soon as Ji Chen said this, Si Zhengting stopped in his tracks. He glanced at his watch again. It was almost 11 am. He probably did not have enough time to shop for groceries and cook a meal for Nainai.
He loosened his tie in frustration and paced back and forth anxiously.
Seeing him like this, Ji Chen’s eyes widened. From the time Mr. Si took over the Imperial Group up to now, when had he ever been this irritable?
