It was very difficult for Zhang Yandong to communicate with him. Xiang Ciyuan was too impulsive, and when he got impulsive, he wouldn't listen to anyone.
Where is Shen Shixun now?
"Cao Mingyuan, pull over."
"Things aren't as you think!"
Zhang Yandong still felt somewhat guilty. He should have known better than to make fun of Shen Shixun with that young lady, because a few months later someone caught him red-handed.
"Do you remember Chen Moli? She was the one from that time..."
"Don't remember, which bitch?"
“People from Shengting.”
"What terrible taste! Damn it! He found a woman like this to humiliate my sister..."
"Xiang Ciyuan, he was set up!" Zhang Yandong emphasized. "Calm down, can you please listen to me finish what I have to say?!"
Xiang Ciyuan was dizzy and not very patient. He also disliked trouble and hated people who nagged him.
When something happens, he likes to get straight to the point: "Tell me the result."
But he listened to the whole story carefully, and afterwards he felt more alert. "You're saying someone set up this scheme to harm him? I don't understand."
“Many people are eyeing Shen Shixun; he’s too famous in the Xiang family.”
"So, does he have it or not? Can you be clear about that?"
Zhang Yandong's claim that Shen Shixun was framed is just speculation. Who can prove that Shen Shixun was framed?
Shen Shixun's denial alone is not enough!
“I believe him. Sehun is my brother. I absolutely believe him. If he says it’s not true, then it’s not true.”
"What's the use of you believing him?" Everyone knows that Shen Shixun is his savior, so naturally he'll help Shen Shixun.
"I can't interfere with the Xiang family's mines, but you can investigate Ciyuan."
Is it necessary for him to investigate this matter personally?
After hanging up the phone with Ciyuan, he called the mine to find out the details of last night. After finishing the call, he frowned and saw that the car had already arrived outside the project site.
"Cao Mingyuan, turn around and go home."
"Go back where?"
"Go back to the old house."
Chen Moli went to the mine, making such a commotion that everyone there knew about it. So many people could testify that Shen Shixun led Chen Moli into the office. The two spoke before going in and after going in. Since they didn't know each other, why would Shen Shixun lead someone in?
That's weird.
When Xiang Ciyuan's car stopped in front of the Xiang family's house, he ran into Shen Shixun, who happened to be passing by.
The cars were all parked in the parking lot. Shen Shixun got out of the car and had only taken a few steps when Xiang Ciyuan stopped him.
"What happened?"
Having worked together, Xiang Ciyuan was relatively easy to talk to. "Make things clear before you go in."
Would you believe me if I said that?
"It depends."
Xiang Nanzhi was the closest person to him in the Xiang family. If Xiang Nanzhi didn't believe it, how could Xiang Ciyuan believe it? Naturally, family members would help each other.
He turned to go inside, frowning at Ciyuan, "You'd better explain yourself now, or you'll get beaten up if you go in."
The eldest brother feels most sorry for Zhizhi. If he continues with this attitude, he'll only be able to come out lying down if he goes in standing up.
"There's nothing to say."
"Stop right there!" Xiang Ciyuan's tone was already getting impatient. "That Chen Moli, did you sleep with her?"
"No, I didn't do it."
"Why would she come looking for you at the mine if she hadn't done it?"
Shen Shixun looked at him, making Xiang Ciyuan feel uneasy under her gaze. "I'm asking you, why are you looking at me like that?"
She said she came to see you.
He was also afraid that Xiang Ciyuan would cause trouble outside and become known to everyone in the mine. If Xiang Zhengyi were to pursue the matter, Xiang Ciyuan would immediately suffer the consequences. Therefore, he invited Chen Moli in as soon as possible.
Xiang Ciyuan was somewhat dazed. "That bitch dares to say she's looking for me?"
"Yes, that's what she said."
So things became something he couldn't explain. Xiang Ciyuan neither believed nor disbelieved, and asked Cao Mingyuan, "Go and find out where that bitch is now?"
"I left the country last night."
Before Cao Mingyuan could answer, Shen Shixun interrupted him.
"You sent him abroad?"
What do you think?
He only barely learned some of the basic rules of life in the ancient city after arriving at the Xiang family. If he had the ability to send people abroad, he would truly be defying the heavens.
The situation was indeed quite troublesome. Even Xiang Ciyuan didn't know whether he should believe him. If Shen Shixun had orchestrated all of this, then he had done a great job. However, he had done one thing rather stupidly—he should have told Chen Moli to get lost the moment he saw her, instead of inviting her into the house.
If someone deliberately involved him, then they must know too much about the people involved, understand Xiang Nanzhi's sensitivity in this matter, understand Shen Shixun's character, and know his own circle well enough, otherwise they wouldn't have chosen Chen Moli to be the scapegoat.
Looking at Ciyuan with a somewhat surprised expression, Shen Shixun curled the corners of his lips and said, "See, it's pointless for me to say anything."
"Do you have any evidence to prove...?"
"No."
He was completely unprepared, had no evidence whatsoever, and could not prove his and Chen Moli's innocence, much less that he had been framed.
"So what are you going to say when you go in?"
"I've said everything I needed to say."
Shen Shixun took the jade necklace with wolf teeth from his neck, held it in his hand, and turned to walk step by step into the house.
Xiang Nanzhi didn't eat much last night and didn't sleep well. All she could see when she closed her eyes was Shen Shixun pretending to be serious in front of her, but secretly sleeping with other women.
She was angry all night and cried when she woke up in the morning. Xiang Jingyi coaxed her to eat a few bites of rice cake.
Old Ma came in and said, "The son-in-law and the second young master are back."
