Chapter 1355 - Racked Her Brains? 5
When he saw that Xi Xiaye had carried Mu Xiaocheng out of the door, Mu Yuchen calmly said to Li Si, as he sat down on the sofa, “Have a seat.”
“Alright, Master!” Li Si sat down respectfully.
“Master, Gu Qiwu was taken to the police station this morning. His assistant, Ah Yong, came looking for me and said…”
At this, Mu Yuchen could roughly guess the situation. He took his teacup up calmly and had a sip. “Doris moves quite fast.” You could not hear the tone in his lowered voice while his dark eyes were filled with a calm light.
Li Si paused and lowered his voice to say, “Yes, Doris has always been like this. She can truly set her mind to be heartless, but Gu Qiwu was quite merciless too. With a woman like Doris, the more Gu Qiwu doesn’t go along with her, it will be easy for her to just go the extreme end, such as the incident with Ah Mo this time around.”
“However, she didn’t expect Gu Qiwu to not take her bait. Ah Mo and Qi Lei have escaped themselves! Right now, Doris’s people are scouring all over to look for traces of Ah Mo and the rest, so it looks like she might have lost all momentum,” Li Si verbalized his thoughts.
Mu Yuchen did not answer. He just lowered his gaze and silently drank his Chinese tea while Li Si continued, “Master, do we want to go see Gu Qiwu? Previously, he said that you must…”
However, he did not continue because he noticed that his Master’s expression had changed. He thought about it and decided to keep quiet.
“Have things been handled on the media’s end?” Mu Yuchen held a hand to his forehead and calmly asked.
“Don’t worry, Master, it’s been settled. It was a quiet arrest as the situation hasn’t been clarified. They wouldn’t dare do things recklessly. Miss Lingshi still doesn’t know about it yet, but Chief Mu and Chief Zhuang…we might not be able to hide it from them.”
“There’s no need to keep it a secret from them. I just didn’t want to cause any unnecessary problems. Get ready. We’ll go to the police station to understand the situation. Bring a lawyer along. We’ll do our best so that Gu Qiwu won’t be made a scapegoat,” Mu Yuchen ordered.
Upon hearing that, Li Si was stunned. He looked at Mu Yuchen in surprise. “Master, how do you know that Gu Qiwu’s just a scapegoat? We haven’t been able to find any evidence about Wang Qin’s incident. Actually, I personally think it was Gu Qiwu.”
“Usually, people who do these things have a goal. If it was him, what do you think Gu Qiwu’s motive was? I don’t believe in guesses, only evidence. Remember, we’ll have to be on guard about this, especially on Qi Lei’s end. Ah Bao has been following the police and investigating all the way. They found traces of them staying over in an empty courtyard, thus we can make a guess that Ah Mo and the rest probably stayed there,” Mu Yuchen’s expression was calm as he said.
Li Si then nodded and responded, “Yes, Master! I understand! I’ll be careful, and I’ll order them to bring him over to you as soon as they find Master Qi.”
“Mmm, also, at this point, Doris won’t be able to stay calm. Inform Su Chen right away. Tell them to keep their eyes open wide. We can’t let Doris leave City Z. I need her to pay the price for all that she’s done.”
Mu Yuchen’s voice was so cold that even Li Si felt a shiver in his heart. He thought about it, then quickly nodded. “Yes, Master! Right, Master, Master Mo has sent some documents over. It’s all evidence from New York about Alex engaging them in business for some unique things, and the incident this time…It’s all here! Master Mo said that if you think it’s fine, give him a call. He’ll have to take revenge for himself!” Li Si said as he handed the folder over.
Frowning, Mu Yuchen quickly took it and opened it to slide out a document.
He looked through it in detail, and his indifferently handsome face eased slightly. Towards the end, he put the document back into the folder too, then he said with a lowered voice, “Mmm, got it. You tell him that however he wants to do it is up to him, but this time, we must make sure that they won’t be able to get back up again. I’d like to see what Doris is going to find without this hidden trump card,” Mu Yuchen said with a hint of a sneer.
Li Si was slightly stunned to see that.
Indeed, with someone like Doris, only by doing so would she truly feel despair and suffering! For someone who held her power in such esteem, losing all of these would make her truly feel pain. Besides that, she should receive the due punishment accordingly for all of the things she had done!
“Master, don’t worry. Master Mo will do it well. I’ve also delegated more people to Doris. This time, she won’t be able to fly even if she had wings!”
Mu Yuchen lowered his head, took a calm sip of tea, and waved a hand. Li Si then knowingly retreated.
The study room fell silent immediately as Mu Yuchen leaned back against the sofa, h. His dark eyes flickered, but he did not reveal any emotions. However, he seemed dazed and did not even realize when Xi Xiaye ended up at his side.
Only when a fair, slender hand reached over to take the folder in his hand did he snap out of his thoughts.
“What are you thinking about? I’ve been standing here for a while now, but you didn’t even notice.”
Her soothing voice came through, containing a hint of worry. Then, she put the folder in her hand down and took the empty teacup. Glancing down, she then looked up at him before calmly asking, “Want more?”
Mu Yuchen inhaled, took the cup, and put it onto the table. He held her slightly cold hand, and Xi Xiaye went along to sit down close to him.
“Where’s our son?” he asked.
“Aunt Fang has carried him to sleep. Why? You don’t look like you’re in a good mood.” Xi Xiaye looked at him worriedly.
He breathed in leisurely, and answered calmly, “I’m fine. Gu Qiwu’s been detained.”
Gu Qiwu?
Xi Xiaye quickly understood what he meant, so she frowned. “Is that Doris’s doing?”
“Who else?”
“As for Wang Qin’s thing, I don’t think it’s Gu Qiwu either. Otherwise, even if this storm passes, what can Qi Lei do? What should we do about Ah Shi and Ah Mo?”
“I didn’t expect Doris to use this incident too.”
“Gu Qiwu should know about this incident even better than we do. I don’t think it’s him. You can try to find out more about it from him.”
