Chapter 358 Walking into a Trap
Bo Siye had finally managed to change Han Xi's attitude somewhat and even wanted to take the opportunity to develop their relationship, but then a freak appeared out of nowhere and ruined his plans.
Shen Jiheng had been standing at the door for a while, and seeing Han Xi being tricked step by step, he couldn't stand it anymore.
Bo Siye forced a calm smile and said, "You flatter me. When it comes to acting, no one is as good as you. Your unpredictable behavior these past few days has been unbelievable."
Shen Jiheng walked in and gave Han Xi an unpleasant look.
Where did her intelligence go? She was fooled by this kind of person.
Han Xi met his gaze without flinching and said directly, "Now there are witnesses who can prove that Director Chu was taken away by you. Hand him over."
Shen Jiheng laughed, truly defeated by her; it turned out she too would resort to desperate measures when in dire need.
"What a coincidence, I also came to find you after finding out about Chu Yuntian."
Han Xi frowned in confusion: "Didn't you take him away?"
Shen Jiheng pointed at Bo Siye behind her and said firmly, "Unfortunately, this matter has nothing to do with me, but was taken away by the person in front of you who claimed he could help you."
Bo Siye immediately retorted: "You're deliberately slandering me to prevent me from getting close to Han Xi. It's clear that you sent her abroad to cover up the truth."
Shen Jiheng couldn't help but cast an admiring glance at him. Even at a time like this, he could still lie without batting an eye; such a skill was not something an ordinary person possessed.
Shen Jiheng ignored him and looked at Han Xi, "Then you can decide for yourself whose words to believe now."
How could Han Xi possibly judge that Bo Siye was once the person she trusted most, yet she never expected that he had been deceiving her from beginning to end, causing her such a terrible fate?
Shen Jiheng is the person she loves, but now he is deliberately doing things to disgust her in order to force her to leave.
It's hard to say whether this isn't a ploy to prevent her from finding out the truth.
They broke the trust, making Han Xi feel uncertain.
Bo Siye stepped forward and said, "You say I took the person away, what evidence do you have?"
Shen Jiheng sneered: "You really won't shed a tear until you see the coffin. I have to admit that a thief like you can go to such lengths."
As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and Yang Quan walked in from outside, handing Han Xi several photos.
These photos were taken from surveillance video, and they show the date and time, which is exactly when Chu Yuntian contacted her.
The photo shows that Bo Siyue was standing two meters behind him when the person disappeared at the next intersection. If this wasn't his doing, then who was?
Shen Jiheng looked at Bo Siye with curiosity, wanting to see how he would explain.
Han Xi handed over the photo and asked angrily, "Tell me what happened? You were behind him at the time, it was you who took him away."
Bo Siye calmly said, "This is outside the hospital. I already told Han Xi that I went for a follow-up check-up. I was thinking about something at the time and didn't see him at all."
Shen Jiheng revealed a satisfied smile, saying that this person had taken shamelessness to the extreme.
"Your answer is perfect."
“I’m telling the truth. I didn’t notice him at the time. Han Xi, you have to believe me.”
Han Xi examined the photo in her hand carefully and said with certainty, "You're lying. Your eyes are on him, and in this photo you're making a hand gesture. You're the one who took him away."
Shen Jiheng breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, she wasn't foolish enough to completely believe this person's words.
Bo Siye explained, "These are all things that Shen Jiheng deliberately created to confuse the public. I have no reason to arrest him. The only person who should be worried about him being around you is Shen Jiheng."
"What you say makes a lot of sense, but I believe Ji Heng wouldn't lie to me. The person is definitely in your hands. If you don't hand him over, don't blame me for being impolite."
Although she was unsure of herself, Han Xi still chose to stand by Shen Jiheng's side.
She just couldn't understand why Bo Siyue took her away. Was it to cover up some fact?
Bo Siye sighed and waved his hand: "It seems there's no need for us to talk any further. I will find a way to prove my innocence."
After he finished speaking, he tried to leave, but Shen Jiheng stopped him.
Bo Siye muttered under his breath, "Do you really want Chu Yuntian to come back and tell Han Xi about your injuries? I'm doing this to help you, why don't you appreciate it?"
Shen Jiheng's brow twitched, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
Judging from his tone, does he know the extent of his injuries?
This was a secret between him and the dean; how could he possibly know?
Seeing his puzzled look, Bo Siye said, "Don't be so surprised, I have informants at the hospital."
Shen Jiheng grabbed his collar and said sternly, "Stop talking nonsense and hand over the person!"
If it weren't for his confident demeanor, Shen Jiheng wouldn't have thought too much about it yet; he would now be starting to suspect something was amiss.
Although Han Xi didn't hear their conversation clearly, she was certain something was going on.
She stepped forward and said, "If he doesn't hand over Director Chu today, he's not leaving here."
Bo Siye miscalculated. His original intention was to bring the two of them closer, but he didn't expect Shen Jiheng to appear out of nowhere.
"Han Xi, I can help you find him and let him prove the truth."
"Don't lie to me, the person is definitely in your hands."
Unfortunately, what he says now has no credibility with Han Xi.
Bo Siye frowned; he had walked right into a trap.
Shen Jiheng released his grip and said, "Are you going to hand over the person obediently, or do you want to try my methods?"
Shen Jiheng beckoned with his finger, and two bodyguards immediately stepped forward.
Han Xi suggested, "The rooftop is spacious; you can take him up there to resolve this."
Bo Siye's face was extremely ugly. In the past, Han Xi would definitely have helped him out of the predicament, but now, instead of thinking of him, she was kicking him when he was down.
The way she hated him showed that she didn't care whether he lived or died.
Some are happy while others are sad. Shen Jiheng found these words quite agreeable, but he was afraid that Han Xi would still protect him at a time like this.
“Since someone has spoken, Assistant Yang, drag him to the rooftop and beat him until he reveals his whereabouts.”
Yang Quan nodded and reached out to grab Bo Siye, but unexpectedly, Bo Siye suddenly retaliated, punching Yang Quan and forcefully pushing him over to block Shen Jiheng before quickly running away.
His unusual reaction further demonstrates his guilty conscience.
Han Xi waved to Leng Yu, who nodded confidently and followed after her.
Bo Siye doesn't even know whose territory he's on.
"Go after them!"
Shen Jiheng instructed Yang Quan not to let him escape.
Only the two of them remained in the office. Han Xi sighed and said, "Even now, you're still not going to tell me the truth? I already know about your meeting with Attorney Ye to make a will."
Shen Jiheng's pupils flickered slightly. He had underestimated Han Xi. He thought that what he had done would keep her away completely, but he did not expect that she was still investigating him in secret.
Han Xi stepped forward and took his hand: "Ji Heng, I don't believe you would change your mind, otherwise you wouldn't have left everything to us. I know something must have happened to you. Tell me, and we'll face it together."
The truth was right before his eyes, and Han Xi hoped he could tell her himself.
Shen Jiheng felt the warmth of her hand, and he longed to be with her forever.
