Chapter 230 Sticking to One's Own Viewpoint
Han Xi could not understand how furious Shen Jiheng was after learning this news, wishing he could fly to Bo Siye's side immediately and confront him face to face.
However, Han Xi's words put him in a dilemma. No matter how big this matter became, the Shen family was indeed the instigator, and he could not deny that.
But as things have turned out this way, what he feels is that Han Xi is protecting Bo Siye at every turn.
"What you said is all true, but that doesn't mean he can hurt other members of the Shen family."
“I understand how you feel. I also have many questions. Please let me talk to him.”
Shen Jiheng frowned, puzzled, and said, "Han Xi, you also have the identity of a lawyer. You should know that you should call the police immediately after discovering the murderer. Obviously, you did not intend to do so. Rather than letting you investigate, it would be clearer to let the police investigate."
Sensing the anger in Shen Jiheng's words, he must have felt that Shen Jiheng was favoring Bo Siye.
Han Xi said meaningfully, "The police also value evidence, but some evidence cannot be found and needs to be presented by someone."
"You still want to talk to him?"
At this moment, their thoughts were not aligned.
Han Xi nodded, sticking to her point of view. She believed in Bo Siye's character and wanted to hear the truth from him.
Shen Jiheng nodded: "You know I will respect your decision. Since this is what you want, I'll give you half a day to find out what you call the truth."
Shen Jiheng gave her half a day; after that, she shouldn't blame him for doing things his own way.
Han Xi was already very grateful for his concession. After all, four years ago, Shen Jiheng would never have given in, let alone cared about her thoughts.
The current Shen Jiheng is truly different.
No matter how much resentment he harbored, and how much he didn't want Han Xi to meet that person, he still respected her decision and gave her time to sort out her own affairs.
"Okay, now you just need to go back to the company and wait for my message. I will give you a satisfactory answer."
Han Xi first needs to resolve his own doubts before he can deal with other issues.
Shen Jiheng left very dissatisfied, as if the feelings between the two that had been painstakingly restored had been blown away by a strong wind.
Han Xi took a deep breath and called Bo Siye. Upon learning that he was supervising the construction site, she immediately drove over.
Bo Siye wanted to build an educational institution in Chongqing. Last time, he went to great lengths to acquire the land but encountered a minor accident. After dealing with it, he immediately started construction.
Han Xi didn't know why he was in such a hurry. Now that she thought about it, it seemed that Bo Siye's life had never stopped; he was always moving forward.
When Han Xi arrived at the construction site, she saw Bo Siye negotiating with the construction workers. He was a serious person who did everything himself and had been very successful in education abroad.
Looking back now, why did he suddenly decide to return to China to develop his perfectly good career?
Noticing the gaze, Bo Siye turned his head, waved to Han Xi, and walked over.
"I'm sorry to have asked you to come all this way, but there are still some problems here, and I really can't leave."
Wearing a helmet and work clothes, with some dust on his face, he looked less energetic than usual and more approachable.
Han Xi took out a wet wipe from her bag and handed it to him, smiling slightly, "I know you're busy. I wouldn't have come to see you unless it was something very important."
Bo Siye took the hand with a smile, wiping his face as he asked with a smile, "What could be making you so anxious? There's a rest room up ahead, I'll take you there to sit for a while."
Han Xi nodded, following behind him with mixed feelings. She really didn't want Bo Siye to do anything bad and ruin everything he had built up.
Upon arriving at the simple rest room, Bo Siye quickly wiped the dust off the stool, took out two bottles of water from the box, and thoughtfully opened them, handing them to her.
"I'm sorry, the conditions here are a bit poor as we're just starting out. It will definitely be different next time you come."
Han Xi shook his head and said, "There probably won't be a next time."
Bo Siye laughed awkwardly, "That's true, this kind of place is smoky and noisy, not suitable for you girls."
Han Xi looked at him intently, and that look made Bo Siye realize that something was going on.
"What's wrong? It sounds like you have something to say."
Han Xi didn't want to beat around the bush and said directly, "I already know about your grudge with the Shen family. Uncle Shen told me what happened between you."
Bo Siye's hand holding the water glass trembled, his face full of shock.
He never expected Shen Qingzhou to be so shameless, actually having the nerve to reveal all the bad things he had done.
He quickly regained his composure, took a sip of water, and gave a helpless smile.
I originally wanted to maintain a good image in your heart, but it seems that's not going to work now.
I thought he would explain, but he just admitted it directly.
"So all of these things are true? You ruined his overseas businesses, and you bought poison for Ding Shan so she could take revenge on the Shen family."
Han Xi's tone was somewhat excited, but Bo Siye responded calmly.
"It's true that she ruined his career and was secretly targeting him, and it's also true that she bought poison for Aunt Ding from abroad. However, I did not ask her to poison anyone in the Shen family."
Bo Siye spoke with righteous indignation, not at all like someone lying, which made Han Xi wonder if she was overthinking things and that this matter had nothing to do with him.
"But when you gave her these things, didn't you know she was going to use them against the Shen family? And Uncle said that you were the one who ordered all of this."
“That cunning Shen Qingzhou would say that to deceive you, so that he can convince you to help him steal the USB drive and clear his name.”
"So you really do have a USB drive."
At this moment, Han Xi suddenly realized that she seemed to have never really understood Bo Siye; what she had seen was only the one side of him that she had presented.
Bo Siye laughed and said, "Of course I wouldn't keep something that could endanger me. I just deliberately spread the word so that he would go to great lengths to get it."
Han Xi asked him again to confirm: "Those poisons, were they really not returned to the Shen family at your behest?"
Bo Siye replied earnestly, "I swear to God, if I instigated this, may I die a horrible death."
Han Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Only in this way would Shen Jiheng not target him.
As for his personal grudges with Shen Qingzhou, the Shen family will not interfere.
Han Xi calmed down; it was time to know the truth about some things.
"Let's put that aside for now. I have something else I'd like to ask you."
Bo Siye seemed to understand her question and nodded gently.
"Back in school, you always helped me find out Shen Jiheng's preferences and helped me pursue him, but I always failed. Were you behind all of this?"
It is said that it is easy for a woman to pursue a man, but Han Xi pursued Shen Jiheng for four years, trying every means to get close to him and gain his attention, but she failed every time.
At that time, Bo Siye suggested testing Shen Jiheng's feelings for her in another way: by pairing up with Bo Siye to arouse Shen Jiheng's possessiveness.
As a result, news of their official pairing spread everywhere, while Shen Jiheng remained completely silent.
