Chapter 1053: You also think it’s me
"Hanhan..."
For a moment, Mrs. Xie didn't know what to say.
"Godmother, I still call you godmother because I still have feelings for you after all this time."
"But... Are you really unaware of Xie Nancheng's behavior towards me?"
"Hanhan, it can't be Nancheng, believe me."
Mrs. Xie was still anxious to defend herself.
"Godmother, I wouldn't say this if I didn't have substantial evidence. My brother warned me a long time ago about Xie Nancheng investigating me and my mother. At that time, I just thought that maybe Xie Nancheng just wanted to get to the truth."
"I didn't expect him to retaliate against me."
"When I was kidnapped, I was really scared to death."
"I begged desperately, but those people wanted to kill me."
"If my brother hadn't been prepared and sent people to secretly protect me, he would have tracked me down."
"I'm afraid...it's already cold."
"I've heard before that Xie Nancheng is cruel and ruthless, but I never believed it because I have a filter for him. You know, I have always liked him and even wanted to develop a romantic relationship with him."
"But I didn't expect him to disregard any feelings and be so cruel to me."
"Hanhan, I don't know..." Mrs. Xie was a little flustered.
"It doesn't matter whether you know it or not. What matters is that I almost died..."
"Also, my mother was right about one thing."
"It was obviously your idea to give the drug."
"My mother and I are just following your instructions."
"But why are we the ones who are retaliated in the end?"
"And what do we get?"
"Hanhan...listen to your godmother."
Zhou Han replied with red eyes, "No need. There's no point in saying anything now. I just hate myself for being blind. I hate myself for being such a sycophant. When Mrs. Xie passed away, your own husband and son both hid away. Such a big villa, it's like a haunted house. I was the only one who foolishly agreed to stay with you, serving you at your beck and call, asking about your well-being. But what did I get in return?"
"I was nearly killed."
"Hanhan, if it was really Xie Nancheng who did it, I will ask him to give you an explanation."
"Haha, what explanation? Can you let him marry me to make amends? Or let him hurt himself to apologize?" Zhou Han asked sarcastically.
Mrs. Xie was suddenly speechless!
"You can't do anything."
"You just keep painting rosy pictures for me."
"Use my feelings for Xie Nancheng to do a lot of things for you."
"In the end, he was almost killed."
"Your Xie family is beyond my reach."
"Hanhan, Lin Chen is definitely not a good man..." Mrs. Xie hesitated to speak.
Thinking of her goddaughter's impulsive desire to have a quick marriage with Lin Chen, she decided to try to persuade her.
"Who is the good man then?"
"Your son?"
Mrs. Xie was speechless...
"Please go back. For the past year, just treat me, Zhou Han, as blind. Your Xie family is a wealthy family, and my Zhou family can't afford to marry into your family."
After saying that, Zhou Han turned and left.
Mrs. Xie didn't have the energy to continue explaining.
The Zhou family was able to do all this, it was definitely not groundless talk.
Mrs. Xie decided to go find her son and ask him in person.
To be fair, Mrs. Xie still likes Zhou Han very much.
Zhou Han is better as a daughter-in-law than someone I don’t know well.
Now that the Zhou family has announced that they will form an alliance with the Lin family, once Zhou Han and Lin Chen get married, there will naturally be no possibility for them to be with Xie Nancheng.
When Mrs. Xie arrived at Shengshi Group, only Xu Xin was there.
"lady."
"Why are you here?"
"What about Nancheng?" Mrs. Xie said with a gloomy face.
"Mr. Xie and Mr. Lu are in a meeting."
"Is he working so hard right after he got out of the hospital?"
"Well, Mr. Xie has always had a heavy workload." Xu Xin replied cautiously.
"Why isn't that woman here?"
This question confused Xu Xin, and it took him several seconds to realize that the person being asked was Han Chuxi.
"Ah, Assistant Han is taking a break."
"The kidnapping case has had some impact on Assistant Han. She was extremely frightened, so President Xie has asked her to take a long vacation."
"Haha, you're only thinking about climbing up the social ladder. Haven't you ever thought about the risks? If you want to be a woman in South City, you have to take on these responsibilities. If you're so timid, you'd better get out of here as soon as possible."
Mrs. Xie dislikes Han Chuxi a thousand times, even more than she dislikes Tu Ran.
Xu Xin didn't dare to respond.
"You haven't contacted the woman named Tu recently, right?" Mrs. Xie probed.
"This... Madam, I'm not very clear about it. After all, this is Mr. Xie's private matter." Xu Xin lowered his head.
"You're the assistant, keep a close eye on it."
"Nancheng is still young and his career is his priority."
"Stop associating with those questionable women."
Xu Xin didn't say anything either. He knew that his wife didn't like the young lady, so he didn't dare to mention it.
"I'll go in and wait."
Mrs. Xie then entered the office.
After the meeting, Xie Nancheng and Lu Zhiang had a simple meal and went to the office.
"If Tu Ran hadn't refused last night."
"Will you still refuse?" Lu Zhiang asked curiously.
Xie Nancheng said nothing.
Well, that’s the guy’s temper. If he doesn’t say anything, it means he doesn’t want to answer.
If you don't want to answer, there must be something fishy going on.
In the end, it's self-esteem that's at work.
Tu Ran said he couldn't come, so he didn't come.
If Tu Ran is willing to come, would he really be so cruel as not to come?
"What's going on with that female host?" Lu Zhiang suddenly asked.
"What hostess?"
"The one about the financial report in Beijing."
"Her? Nothing, why are you suddenly asking about him?" Xie Nancheng looked at Lu Zhiang puzzledly.
"I always feel that she treats you..."
"Well, how should I put it, it's a little complicated."
"I hope I'm overthinking it."
"But when you have time, you can ask someone in Beijing to check on her." Lu Zhiang was also relatively cautious.
"I checked."
"There's really nothing unusual."
"Then I'll go back to my place first. Call me if you have anything." Lu Zhiang parted ways with him in the elevator near the president's office.
As soon as Xie Nancheng reached the door, Xu Xin came running over.
"Mr. Xie, the lady is here."
"Okay, I understand."
Xie Nancheng pushed the door open and walked in.
"Nancheng, I want to ask you."
"Did you really hire someone to kidnap Hanhan?" Mrs. Xie couldn't wait.
In fact, she was full of suspicions all the way.
On the one hand, I feel that Nancheng will not do that.
On the one hand, I think it is possible that I couldn't get angry with her, so I took it out on Zhou Han.
So Mrs. Xie couldn't be sure.
Xie Nancheng didn't look surprised.
Sitting on the sofa, "Did she tell you?"
"Is it or isn't it?"
"Have you really asked someone to investigate her and Mrs. Zhou? About the source of the medicine?" Mrs. Xie leaned closer to her son.
"Yes, I did investigate."
Mrs. Xie's heart skipped a beat when she heard this!
"The mother and daughter of the Zhou family interfere too much. They deserve to die." Xie Nancheng cursed.
Mrs. Xie was even more panicked. "Nancheng, this... was my idea. It was Mom's fault. I really can't blame them. Mrs. Zhou also got the medicine at my instruction. If you're angry, come at me, don't go after them."
"So, you also believe that I kidnapped Zhou Han, right?" Xie Nancheng smiled indifferently.
Mrs. Xie was suddenly confused.
"Isn't it?" Mrs. Xie believed that her son's words and hints just now meant admission.
