Chapter 417 Sending him to prison

Mu Family Old House

Song Chi and Cheng Shu sat on the sofa, scrolling through related news.

At that moment, Old Master Mu walked over, supported by the housekeeper.

"Granddaughter-in-law, are you awake?"

Cheng Shu and Song Chi went to greet him.

"dad."

"grandfather!"

The two called out one after the other.

Grandpa Mu nodded and said, "Please sit down."

"Granddaughter-in-law, I have many questions about your faking death. Let's talk about it."

"good!"

Song Chi and Cheng Shu exchanged a glance, and then the three of them sat down and began to talk.

Old Master Mu got straight to the point.

"Granddaughter-in-law, why are you pretending to be dead? Why is the media CEO so eager for you to die? Is there some grudge between you two?"

Song Chi explained.

"Grandpa, to be precise, there's no real grudge between Mu Nianbai and me..."

She guessed that the one with the grudge was Mu Zhenxuan!

However, because Cheng Shu was present, she did not voice her suspicions.

"As for why I pretended to be dead, it's like this..."

Song Chi recounted the entire incident.

The gist of it is that she and the uncle suspected that someone was targeting the Mu family again, and through clues, the focus was on Lao Xu and Mu Nianbai.

Lacking evidence, they summoned Li Bowen, a notorious rebellious youth, to go undercover.

Li Bowen discovered important information, but at the same time, his undercover identity was exposed, forcing him to blackmail her into assassinating her.

So they put on this show.

She also recounted the events surrounding her assassination attempt last night.

The process was thrilling.

But she won this war!

It was actually quite fun!

Whenever Song Chi thought about Mu Nianbai being ridiculed by the entire internet, he couldn't help but sneer and feel a little smug.

If her husband comes back and finds out all this, he'll definitely praise her a lot!

She really wanted the uncle to come home quickly so she could tell him the good news!

Grandpa Mu and Cheng Shu were both shocked upon hearing this.

The two murmured in surprise, "Such a thing actually happened..."

"Daughter-in-law, I never expected you to encounter such a dangerous situation. That Mu Nianbai is actually the mastermind behind it all. He not only tried to harm our Mu family multiple times, but he also tried to kill you. He is truly despicable!"

"Daughter-in-law, I'm so sorry. I didn't take good care of you and you were frightened!"

The more Cheng Shu thought about it, the more frightened she became.

The look in her eyes was filled with guilt.

"Mom, don't blame yourself, I'm fine!"

Cheng Shu pulled her into her arms, her voice filled with tenderness and a touch of coquettishness.

"Daughter-in-law, promise me you won't do such risky things again!"

"Mom, I promise you, I will never take risks alone again. But if anything happens to the Mu family, I will absolutely not stand idly by!"

Cheng Shu felt incredibly warm inside upon hearing this.

"Granddaughter-in-law..."

Grandpa Mu patted her on the shoulder, looking at her with admiration.

"I'm sorry you've suffered. Remember, if there's any danger in the future, we'll face it together. Don't shoulder it alone!"

"good!"

The family looked at each other and smiled; the atmosphere was just right.

Old Master Mu opened his mouth, wanting to ask more, "Mu Nianbai has targeted the Mu family multiple times, and even tried to kill Song Chi on several occasions."

There must be a reason for this!

Song Chi said that there was no conflict between them.

Old ginger is spicier.

It was obvious at a glance that she hadn't told the whole truth!

He glanced at Cheng Shu subconsciously.

Perhaps it's related to Cheng Shu, or perhaps it's related to Mu Zhenxuan. He doesn't want to disrupt family harmony, so he doesn't plan to ask about this matter directly, but rather wants to investigate it secretly!

Little did Song Chi know what Old Master Mu was thinking!

She checked the time.

"Mom, I want to go to the hospital."

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"

Cheng Shu looked nervous.

"No, I went to visit my aunt, and then I wanted to contact the police station again to help clear my name and prove that Li Bowen is innocent!"

Song Chi later learned that while she was faking unconsciousness, her aunt was rescued by the police and taken to the hospital.

She was very worried about her.

At the same time, she also wanted to ask her aunt if there was any other strong evidence!

If Mu Nianbai dares to do anything to harm the Mu family again, she will definitely send him to prison herself!

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shu breathed a huge sigh of relief.

"This is easy. I'll talk to A-Zhou and ask him to help clear Li Bowen's name. This time, we were able to find strong evidence, all thanks to him..."

"Thank you, Mom!"

Song Chi was also filled with gratitude towards Li Bowen.

She didn't want him to be insulted anymore!

After exchanging a few words with Old Master Mu, the two got up and left for the hospital.

What Song Chi didn't know was that no sooner had she left than Old Master Mu instructed the housekeeper.

"I need all information about Mu Nianbai. Give it to me as soon as possible!"

"Yes, sir..."

The butler acknowledged and then sent someone to investigate Mu Nianbai!

Hospital

Accompanied by Cheng Shu, Song Chi arrived at Song Yulan's ward. Coincidentally, as soon as they entered, they saw Cheng Zhou standing at the door, looking guilty and wanting to go in but unable to.

"A-Zhou, what are you doing here?"

Cheng Shu looked on with curiosity.

Her voice also reached into the ward.

In the ward, Song Yulan lay on the bed, stunned for a moment.

Cheng Zhou was also taken aback.

"Uh, I'm here to help a colleague investigate a kidnapping case..."

Cheng Shu joked, "Wow, your colleague is quite capable, getting you to come and help out as an official."

She didn't think much of it, but the listener took it to heart.

Cheng Zhou: "..."

His ears turned bright red as the lie seemed to have been exposed.

Song Chi: "..."

She glanced at Cheng Zhou, then at her aunt in the ward. Although the two didn't interact much, she could clearly sense that the atmosphere between them was very stiff!

She could clearly sense that Cheng Zhou's gaze towards his aunt was filled with guilt.

What exactly happened?

Song Chi raised an eyebrow.

"Cousin A-Zhou, let's go in together. I happen to have something to ask you for help with."

"Uh, okay."

The group entered the ward only to find that there were other people in the ward.

This man was the younger brother of the sisters at Song Yulan's housekeeping company. He was entrusted by his sister to deliver food to her.

The man wasn't handsome, but he looked honest and kind. He busied himself helping her sit up and serving her food.

Because of the severity of her injuries, she was unable to move her hands and feet.

The man had no choice but to feed her himself with a spoon.

"Have something to eat..."

Just then, Song Chi and the others walked in.

Everyone was stunned when they saw the man.

The man looked at them, gave them a simple, polite smile.

"Yulan, are these your family members?"

Song Yulan looked at Song Chi and nodded: "Mm."

"Yulan, you two chat, I'll go get you some hot water first."

"Okay, thank you for your help."

"Of course..."

The man said this and then turned and left.

Watching the interaction between the two, Cheng Zhou felt a pang of discomfort, as if he had been pricked by a needle, and a sour feeling, as if he had been soaked in a jar of vinegar.

Ah, the magnolias are calling out, how intimate they are!

He felt a sour taste in his mouth and pursed his lips tightly.

Song Chi glanced at him and found him very strange.

Without thinking too much, she came to Song Yulan's side, her face full of concern.

"Auntie, your injury looks serious. It must hurt a lot..."

She looked distressed.

She felt guilty whenever she thought that these injuries were all caused by her.

"Chichi, don't worry. The doctor said that although my injuries look serious, they are all superficial wounds and will heal in a while..."

She paused here, her face filled with sadness.

"I heard you got hurt too. Was it Bowen? Chichi, how badly are you hurt? Let me see! I'm so sorry, it's all my fault. I failed to discipline him properly, and now he's hurt you again..."

As Song Yulan observed her injuries, she couldn't help but feel guilty.

Song Chi quickly hugged her and comforted her, "Auntie, Li Bowen didn't try to harm me. He even helped me. I believe he has reformed and changed for the better..."

She recounted what had happened.

Upon hearing this, Song Yulan was incredulous, but at the same time, she felt extremely fortunate!

"Chichi, are you telling the truth? Bowen didn't hurt you, you were just putting on an act?"

"Of course, the police will release the information for me later, and all the insults directed at him will stop!"

"Great! That brat Bowen has finally grown up..."

Song Yulan wept with joy.

Song Chi was also very pleased.

Suddenly, she remembered something: "Aunt, there's something I want to ask you. When you were kidnapped that day, did you see clearly what your kidnappers looked like?"

If she could clearly see that it was Mu Nianbai, then she would have evidence to send him to jail!
