Shi Nuan was on the phone with Ji Xia, and downstairs, Song Yansheng also went to the yard to make a call to Chi Rui.
The calmer the surface of the lake, the more noticeable the ripples. Shi Nuan’s attempt to expose Li Guirong and Shi Jiaojiao’s scheme against her was indeed a smart move.
In the eyes of outsiders, Shi Nuan’s identity is the heiress of the Shi Family and the fiancée of Song Yichuan, the only son of Song Family’s current president, Song Zhongming.
It has been less than a month since Song Yichuan passed away, and the funeral was held very grandly, especially with TK’s president Song Yansheng personally overseeing it, which shows the impact clearly.
Shi Nuan’s original plan was to use her special status, have Ji Xia fan the flames a bit, and thus cause a huge uprising outside, an obvious outcome.
Shi Nuan knew she had used Song Yichuan, but she was truly unwilling.
Shi Nuan had to admit that agreeing with her father to spare Li Guirong and her daughter was not completely out of regard for her father’s dignity and kinship.
But she felt that simply letting Li Guirong and her daughter go to prison was too lenient!
Besides, she knew that if Li Guirong and her daughter fell into hardship, her father would definitely work with Yu Dou to find ways to get them out...
Even if convicted, the sentence would not be severe...
Rather than that, it’s better to sell a favor to her father...
No matter how much she despises the Shi Family and doesn’t want to return, she cannot completely sever ties with that family for now!
There are still many things she wants to do, she can’t let everything be ruined by a moment of impulse!
Father is willing to give her ten percent of the Shi Family shares, indeed with Song Yansheng’s assistance, but even without him, she would have asked her father for it...
And a father who feels guilty towards her might not refuse...
Shi Nuan never thought of herself as particularly kind. Her mother was kind, and what was the result?
She hopes she can be ruthless, especially towards those who have hurt her loved ones, who have hurt her... be ruthless!
But who would have thought the end result would be , quite laughable, isn’t it?
And who exactly is helping Li Guirong and her daughter behind the scenes?
Or who, quietly, is opposing her?
She couldn’t guess, there were no clues.
Shi Nuan couldn’t guess, and even when Song Yansheng had Chi Rui investigate, it turned up nothing.
Hearing Chi Rui’s report, a shadow of gloom passed over the man’s handsome face. If even he couldn’t uncover it, how deeply hidden could this person be...
Chi Rui said, "Mr. Song, I’ve tried my best to investigate, but indeed there are no clues, not a single one..."
Song Yansheng didn’t believe it. If someone did it, there must be clues left behind, and as long as there are clues, they shouldn’t come up empty-handed!
If it’s not found, it’s Chi Rui’s incompetence!
Chi Rui pursed his lips and said helplessly, "I’ll have people... investigate thoroughly once more!"
"Call me as soon as you find anything..."
He paused, then added, "Don’t overlook any detail!"
Chi Rui responded, trembling as he hung up the phone, feeling a terrible headache!
Why did so many troublesome tasks fall to him, are assistants to other presidents ?
Can he apply for resignation?
When Shi Nuan came downstairs, Song Yansheng just finished the call and entered. Seeing Shi Nuan coming down the stairs, the man’s originally sharp eyes instantly softened.
He smiled at her and said, "There’s still some time before dinner, shall we take a walk in the yard?"
