Chapter 1099: Grand Wedding! (2)

“Master, are you really going to do that? If…” Li Si seemed hesitant as he asked.

Before he could finish his sentence, Mu Yuchen interrupted him, “There’re no ifs.”

He put the thumb drive onto the table and leaned back against the chair. Then, he turned the chair around and looked out of the window. Moments later, he continued, “Qi Lei called me just now and told me that Qi Feng’s already figured out the relationship between Gu Qiwu and Lingshi. He’s probably plotting some trouble.”

“What? He found out?”

Li Si and Ah Mo traded glances with each other, their expressions hardening.

“It’s slightly later than I expected. I don’t find it surprising. It was going to be exposed sooner or later anyway.” Mu Yuchen did not seem to be shocked.

“What do they want? Bro, should I send people…”

Mu Yuchen raised his hand and stopped Ah Mo. “This might be more suitable for Qi Lei to handle. Your top priority is to protect Lingshi. Doris came back and went to pay her respects to Grandmother on the day she was buried. I met her. She seems much more cunning than ever. I don’t want her to lay her eyes on Lingshi. Do you understand?”

“Do you mean…”

Ah Mo had been working alongside Mu Yuchen for many years, so he could grasp the nuance in Mu Yuchen’s words.

“Doris is an ambitious woman. She’ll never let someone pose a threat to Gu Lingsha and her. I remember that Gu Qiwu told me Doris suspected him before, but he tried to avert her suspicion away from Aunt by encouraging Gu Lingsha to marry me.

“But who could be sure that Doris actually gave up on finding out? She’s a smart woman. There was no way she couldn’t guess what Gu Qiwu was up to, so I want to see Doris’s reaction once we release this. If my guess is correct, we’ll have to reinvestigate Lingtian’s accident six years ago!”

Mu Yuchen’s voice turned sharp towards the end, and Li Si shuddered slightly.

Ah Mo tensed up as he listened to Mu Yuchen. “Bro, you mean that Doris suspected Lingtian and Lingshi six years ago, or even earlier than that, and that’s why she plotted the accident?”

“That…that’s impossible!” Li Si opened his eyes wide.

“Do you remember when I auctioned Lingtian’s pen in City B earlier this year?” Mu Yuchen suddenly turned around and looked into their eyes.

Ah Mo and Li Si were startled for a moment before nodding.

“Of course, that was how you found out about Gu Qiwu. I remember Gu Lingsha got it at a high bid of $8 million. However, that pen seems to have been returned to Ms. Lingsha. I almost forgot about this! I think you mentioned that Doris sent people to chase the people who tried to buy the pen, so she might not actually know about the relationship between Gu Qiwu and Lingshi. Why else would she have done that then?”

“If she didn’t know, why would she have cared about that pen? Was it really because of Gu Lingsha’s friendship with Lingtian? I understand that instead of Gu Lingsha, it was Doris who sent the people to chase after Gu Qiwu.”

“So, are you saying there are only two reasons why she would do so? One is that she was putting on an act, or she just has her suspicions and is still unsure about their relationship. Is she trying to confuse us to cover her tracks?”

“The second one feels closer to the right answer,” Mu Yuchen analyzed.

Ah Mo and Li Si were stunned.

“That’s not very likely, is it? Creating an accident without knowing the truth…that doesn’t seem reasonable,” Ah Mo said.

“That’s right. We’ve also investigated the accident so many times, but the results came out to be an accident every time. There are no leads at all, so I don’t think it’s feasible.” Li Si frowned.

“It does sound ridiculous, but usually the answer beyond our expectations could be the right one. It might be because the previous investigators were incapable, but I want to investigate this case again. Of course, it’s just speculation at this point. There’s nothing really suspicious yet, so we’ll have to wait and see their reactions tomorrow. I’m looking forward to the surprise Qi Feng has prepared for me tomorrow too,” Mu Yuchen said coolly, appearing relaxed.

“Are you heading over personally tomorrow?” Ah Mo sounded anxious as he expressed, “I’m worried that Qi Feng might do something to you. Let me accompany you.”

“Ah Mo, you forgot what I just told you. Your top priority is to protect Lingshi. Li Si will be accompanying me tomorrow, so just do what you should.” Mu Yuchen then got up and handed the thumb drive back to Li Si. “I’ll leave this to you. Don’t let me down.”

“Don’t worry, Master. I’ll get it done!”

“You mentioned that you want to investigate the case again. What’s your plan?” Ah Mo asked.

“Don’t use any of our men to avoid attracting any attention. I’ll ask your sister-in-law’s contact.” He was thinking of Inspector Zhang since he was very pleased with the information he gathered this time.

Doris had ignored Xi Xiaye completely the other day, so she probably did not think of her highly. It might be easier for Xi Xiaye to take action because at least, Doris would not be vigilant of her.

Ah Mo nodded. “Okay, we’ll go with your plan then.”

“You can both go back now. Ah Mo, we won’t be going back to the Mu residence tonight.”

“Yes, Bro!”
