Chapter 55 There are still things I don't understand.
Han Xi took on this case in order to better investigate the matter concerning Gu Hanxi.
Her kidnapping was clearly a setup to frame her, but there was something Han Xi couldn't understand.
If all of this was indeed a deliberate setup by Gu Hanxi, then why would she have a miscarriage? That doesn't make sense.
She consulted Qin Chuan about many things this week and learned that Shen Jiheng had given Gu Hanxi many benefits in order to get her to agree to have the child.
If that's the case, then she should have given birth to the child, especially since there's another child waiting for medical treatment. These are the reasons why she should have done everything in her power to protect the child.
However, the child was still lost, leading Han Xi to suspect that there were other secrets involved.
After all, she had discovered that Gu Hanxi had a man outside, and that she was keeping it a secret from Shen Jiheng.
That evening, Shen Jiheng, who hadn't stepped into his home for several days, finally returned.
These days he has been investigating the kidnapping of Gu Hanxi. Although the investigation points to Han Xi, there is no concrete evidence, which makes him restless and uneasy.
With no suitable bone marrow available, Shen Tongtong's condition is very dangerous.
When he got home and didn't see Han Xi, he realized that they hadn't been in contact for days.
Shen Jiheng sat slumped on the sofa, asking indifferently, "Has Madam not returned yet?"
Aunt Wang looked surprised and whispered, "Sir, don't you know?"
Shen Jiheng rubbed his forehead; recent events had been giving him a real headache.
"What do you know!"
He really doesn't want to think about anything else right now.
Seeing his impatient look, Aunt Wang replied softly.
"Sir, your wife moved out a week ago. I thought you knew..."
Shen Jiheng released her hand and looked at her incredulously, as if Aunt Wang was the one who had made a mistake. She smiled awkwardly.
Shen Jiheng jumped up and quickly went upstairs. Sure enough, he saw that everything on the dressing table had been moved away. He opened the wardrobe and saw that even her clothes were gone.
His gaze fell on the corner of the wardrobe, and he realized that she had never even hit any of the gifts he had bought for her over the years. Did this woman not love him at all?
Now that their agreement is broken and they know they can't get a smooth divorce, they've decided to move out.
Shen Jiheng clenched his fists; how could he let Han Xi go free?
Shen Jiheng took out his phone to dial the number, only to find that he had been blocked.
It's ridiculous that Han Xi dared to block his number. Who gave her the guts?
Outraged, Shen Jiheng immediately asked Aunt Wang to call the number, and the call finally went through.
"Hello, Aunt Wang, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Han Xi, it's me." He quickly added, "Don't hang up."
Han Xi put the phone back to his ear; how could he know that he had just been about to hang up?
"What are you doing?"
Shen Jiheng took a deep breath to calm himself down.
"Why didn't you tell me you were moving out?"
"That's strange. You never consult me about anything. Do I need your permission to move out if I don't want to live at home?"
One sentence stuck in his throat, and every word made sense.
Shen Jiheng ordered, "I don't want to argue with you. Move it back right now."
Han Xi laughed and said, "Why do you think I'll still listen to your arrangements now? If it's still because of Gu Hanxi's kidnapping, you should go to the police station."
Shen Jiheng knew it wasn't her, but the issues involved hadn't been sorted out yet.
“You are my wife, Shen Jiheng. What kind of behavior is it to live outside?”
"So you might as well just divorce me. That way, whatever I do won't concern you. Why go through all this trouble?"
"Han Xi, don't force me. If you don't come back, I'll give all the remaining shares to your father."
He hasn't changed at all; he thinks he can scare her with those kinds of words.
If he really wanted to say a few more words of comfort, that would have been nice, but unfortunately he didn't.
Shen Jiheng had no other choice. Although he knew it was wrong, he wanted to get the person back first.
After a few seconds of silence, Han Xi calmly replied, "Whatever. I won't answer any calls from the Shen family in the future, so don't waste your energy."
Han Xi hung up the phone immediately after speaking, which infuriated Shen Jiheng so much that he threw his phone out the window.
My phone...
Aunt Wang silently reached out her hand, her eyes crinkling into a frown. This was her phone! Her husband's temper was too volatile; no wonder he drove his wife away.
After regaining his composure, Shen Jiheng coughed lightly and said, "I'll have Assistant Qin send you a new one tomorrow."
Aunt Wang finally smiled broadly.
"Thank you, sir. But if you want to coax your wife back, you should watch your tone. The way you spoke just now sounded like you were interrogating her."
That's just how Shen Jiheng is. He came back to find her had left without permission, how could he not be angry!
Aunt Wang added, "Couples make up before they fall asleep, but the husband still needs to put in more effort. I'm going to get back to work now."
Shen Jiheng's mood plummeted to its lowest point. Now, Han Xi was no longer as easily appeased as she used to be.
He intended to scare her with the issue of shares, but it backfired and made Han Xi even angrier.
It seems we'll have to use other methods.
The next day, Han Xi changed into a smart suit and tied her hair in a high ponytail, looking dashing and heroic.
She walked into the law firm, and Zhuo Qingqian gave her a big hug.
"Welcome back, Attorney Han. Our client, Liang Dong, is already waiting in the office. He wants to close this case as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, leave it to me, no problem."
It was because of Shen Jiheng, and the Gu family used various means to obstruct it, that it was delayed for so long.
Han Xi walked into the office and saw that Liang Dong's hand was still in a cast. She couldn't help but sigh at how ruthless those people were back then; they practically beat him to death.
"Mr. Liang, I'm sorry that your case has been delayed for various reasons, and I haven't had time to chat with you. I've asked you to come here today because there are some details we need to discuss."
Liang Dong laughed heartily, "With you in charge, I'm confident that the wicked will receive the punishment they deserve."
Han Xi nodded: "I will do my best and not let you down. Let's get down to business now."
Han Xi took out paper and pen to write down the important points.
Liang Dong cooperated, saying, "Attorney Han, please ask any questions you may have."
"You only mistook Gu Hanxi for someone else that day. Did you do anything else to offend her?"
After Han Xi finished speaking, Liang Dong's expression turned very unpleasant. She added, "Mr. Liang, please don't misunderstand. I didn't mean to offend you. I just find it strange that if it were just a case of mistaken identity, the other party wouldn't have reacted so strongly."
Han Xi analyzed that if it was just a case of mistaken identity, and the other party got angry, they would at most curse a few times, but even if they attacked, they shouldn't beat the other party to death like this.
But Liang Dong stayed in the hospital for a week; it wasn't a minor injury, which is why the matter escalated so much.
After listening, Liang Dong sighed and nodded, saying, "Something did happen. I mistook her for my girlfriend and rushed up to hug her. I was so excited that I almost kissed her."
"Did she ask someone to hit you, or did the bodyguard take the initiative?"
Han Xi mainly thought that at that time, Shen Jiheng only cared about the child in her belly. The two had no private relationship, so he wouldn't be so angry about Liang Dong holding her.
