Chapter 36 Who was the woman that night?



"The last person who dared to act so clever in front of me is still lying in the hospital, and the one before that is still living in prison. I advise you to be pragmatic and see things from the sidelines." Sikong Jingyu gave Nie Shirong a warning glance.

When the hard approach didn't work, Nie Shirong had to switch to a softer one: "I know Mr. Sikong is very powerful, and it's just a matter of a word for him to suppress me. But I was just promoted yesterday, and now I'm suddenly going to be dismissed. How am I supposed to survive in the hospital? If it's just a matter of a word from you, then everyone will just laugh at me."

Nie Shirong spoke sincerely, her eyes gradually reddening, as if she had been bullied. In any case, she couldn't have Sikong Jingyu, so at least she had to keep her job!

“I didn’t know I was going to be promoted yesterday. I was promoted out of nowhere. You were the one who called me that night, not me. I never had the initiative in this matter, but now I’m being punished for it. Mr. Sikong, what did I do wrong?”

Nie Shirong shifted all the blame onto Sikong Jingyu, attempting to retain her position by arguing that the victim is always guilty.

Sikong Jingyu's deep, sharp eyes stared at Nie Shirong, making Nie Shirong feel uncomfortable. Her lowered eyelashes trembled slightly.

"To be honest, you're still the head of the emergency department." After a long pause, Sikong Jing's icy voice rang out.

"Really?" A triumphant smile appeared on Nie Shirong's lips, but it quickly disappeared.

Sikong Jingyu glanced indifferently at Nie Shirong and said coldly, "The opportunity has been given to you. It's up to you whether you can seize it."

“I said! I had already arrived at the Sikong residence that night, but when I got there, a woman was already at the door before me. Later, I saw a servant respectfully leading her into the house. I rang the doorbell, but no one opened the door for me. In the end, I had no choice but to go home.”

After Nie Shirong finished speaking, she nervously observed Sikong Jingyu's expression. Sikong Jingyu's expression was very calm, and for a moment, Nie Shirong was unsure whether Sikong Jingyu believed her or not.

After a long silence, Sikong Jingyu finally parted his thin lips slightly, his tone devoid of any warmth, "Who was the woman who went in?"

Did he believe it?

Nie Shirong breathed a sigh of relief and quickly added, "It was dark at the time, and I was quite far away, so I couldn't see her face clearly. I only heard the servants call her 'Young Madam' when the door opened."

Nie Shirong lied.

In fact, Nie Shirong saw the woman's face and even recognized her. That woman was Shi Wan.

Nie Shirong never expected that Shi Wan, who had always been frugal and low-key, was actually the young mistress of the prestigious Sikong family! She was actually Mrs. Sikong, whom so many women envied!

Nie Shirong was unwilling to accept it!

She believed she was no worse than Shi Wan. Why was Shi Wan the young mistress of the Sikong family? Why did Shi Wan live a life of luxury? Why did Shi Wan receive the appreciation of the director and leaders at work? While she had to live like a rat in the gutter, only able to live in the darkness and in Shi Wan's shadow.

Nie Shirong also knew that Sikong Jingyu left the country on the day he and Shi Wan got their marriage certificate. It was rumored that he left the country to avoid Shi Wan. They had no feelings for each other at all, and they might not have even met. Sikong Jingyu was so eager to find the woman from that night that he probably didn't know that Shi Wan was his wife.

That night, when Sikong Jingyu was drugged, the person who called him wasn't Shi Wan, but this complete stranger. This shows that Sikong Jingyu truly loathed Shi Wan. Otherwise, why would he choose to find a complete stranger he'd never even met rather than his own wife for such a thing?

Nie Shirong thought, a wicked glint in her eyes. "If I can't have Shi Wan, then I'll make sure you can't have her either. At least, you can't get her too easily!"

Since Sikong Jingyu dislikes his wife so much, she'll make him dislike Shi Wan even more!

Upon hearing Nie Shirong's words, Sikong Jingyu's face darkened.

Was the woman that night really Shi Wan?

Sikong Jingyu was struck dumb; on the very day of their divorce, he had actually slept with his ex-wife!

Grandma also said that the woman that night was Shi Wan!

Grandma didn't lie to him after all!

He really slept with Shi Wan!

The thought of him sleeping with Shi Wan made Sikong Jingyu feel as if he had swallowed a fly!

A murderous glint flashed in Sikong Jingyu's eyes as he clenched his fists. That night, his grandmother said she had called Shi Wan over. Could it be that his grandmother and Shi Wan had conspired to drug him?

He had initially felt some guilt towards Shi Wan after the divorce, but now, all that guilt has vanished.

Since Shi Wan dared to use such despicable means to scheme against him, then he shouldn't blame him for turning ruthless.

Seeing Sikong Jingyu's expression grow colder and colder, Nie Shirong felt a little scared. She gritted her teeth and said bravely, "I've said everything I know. Mr. Sikong, you'll keep your word, won't you?"

Sikong Jingyu composed himself and glanced indifferently at Nie Shirong: "Who was that person wearing your white coat on house calls that day?"

Nie Shirong paused for a second. The person wearing her white coat on her house call that day was Shi Wan. Therefore, Sikong Jingyu mistakenly thought Shi Wan's name was Nie Shirong. So... the person Sikong Jingyu originally called to the Sikong residence that night was Shi Wan!!!

Even though he didn't know who his wife was, Sikong Jingyu still fell in love with Shi Wan.

Why should I?!

Why does Shi Wan get all the good things by herself?

She absolutely must not let Sikong Jingyu know that the person he is looking for is actually his wife, Shi Wan!

Nie Shirong pretended to recall something, then shook her head: "I lost a white coat a few days ago. The one I'm wearing now is brand new. It turns out someone mistakenly wore it, but I don't know who it was. Why don't you look at the list of photos of our department staff and see who it is?"

Standing in front of the list of photos of emergency room staff, Sikong Jingyu did not see the photo of the person he was looking for.

Nie Shirong's lips curled into a wicked smile. Yesterday, she had personally witnessed Shi Wan take away her photo. There was no way Sikong Jingyu could see it now!

He's so lucky, he had everything from birth, so let him never find the person he wants! Everyone has to suffer a little when they come into this world, she can't be the only one suffering!

He'll never know that the person he's looking for is his wife!

Does the photo wall include photos of all the general practitioners?

Sikong Jingyu's calm voice suddenly rang out, startling Nie Shirong.

What has Sikong Jingyu realized?

Then, Sikong Jingyu's sharp gaze fell on Nie Shirong's face, as if trying to see through her inner thoughts.

Nie Shirong twitched the corner of her mouth, feeling incredibly guilty inside, but still maintained a composed expression: "Mr. Sikong, the photos on this wall are indeed of all our department staff."
