She Asks for a Divorce Again-Chapter 452: A Grasshopper on a Boat

"No, in my heart, he is much more trustworthy than you, he would never do such a thing." Shen Heyu forcefully pulled his wrist away from Yansi’s grip and then left without looking back.

With a bang, the door was shut mercilessly.

Yansi stood frozen, the temperature in the room seeming to drop below zero. Zhao Jin felt a chill that raised goosebumps all over his body; he carefully held his breath, "President."

He softly called out to Yansi. Yansi’s expression was icy, as if a layer of frost had formed, and his gaze turned sharply back to Zhao Jin, his every word seeming edged with frost.

"Are you sure you’ve thoroughly investigated this matter?" Yansi’s eyes were too cold, the pressure too intense.

Confronted with such a gaze, Zhao Jin almost went weak at the knees and knelt down right there.

Zhao Jin spoke, his voice involuntarily trembling, "President, I’ve confirmed it twice. Based on the clues I have now, it’s very likely that Lu Yi is responsible."

"I don’t want a possibility; I need a definite answer, did Lu Yi do this?" Yansi needed a certain and unequivocal answer because this matter concerned Shen Heyu’s safety.

Actually, based on his understanding of Lu Yi, Yansi believed that at this moment, Lu Yi would not commit such an outrageous act. But it was hard to say whether he might be provoked by others or turn dark after some stimulation.

However, if there was even a one in ten thousand chance that Lu Yi was responsible, Yansi could not let it slide.

As he had always been by Shen Heyu’s side and had gained her trust, if this man was not removed, sooner or later he would endanger her life.

Yansi ordered Zhao Jin to investigate the matter thoroughly, to dig up the earth if necessary, and find solid evidence.

Zhao Jin knew the importance of this matter to Yansi; he dared not take it lightly and hurriedly left the hospital room after receiving his orders.

"Lu Yi."

After Zhao Jin left, Yansi was alone in the hospital room. He looked out the window, his gaze becoming extraordinarily dangerous as he lightly uttered Lu Yi’s name.

Lu Yi paced back and forth in his study, holding his phone. He felt like there was a balloon in his chest, inflating relentlessly and about to burst.

"Chen Wenzhou, are you insane? It was you who asked me to tell Shen Heyu that the previous kidnapping was staged by Yansi. Now you give Zhao Jin some evidence to mislead them into thinking I did it, all to frame Yansi."

"How could I agree to work with a person like you? You’ve practically killed me. If Shen Heyu finds out about this, she’ll hate me to death."

Not long after Shen Heyu left, he had received a call from Chen Wenzhou.

Over the phone, Chen Wenzhou told him that he had provided Zhao Jin with some evidence. Yansi’s side was suspecting Lu Yi.

If Yansi found any slightest trace suggesting that the act could indeed be Lu Yi’s doing, he would undoubtedly tell Shen Heyu.

And if Shen Heyu heard about it, how could Lu Yi face her? Lu Yi was practically killed by Chen Wenzhou. Thinking back, he truly regretted deciding to cooperate with Chen Wenzhou.

However, Lu Yi was becoming so anxious he was nearly losing his temper, while on the other side, Chen Wenzhou seemed to be leisurely enjoying the drama, even managing a light chuckle at such a critical moment.

Hearing him laugh, Lu Yi was so furious he wished he could pull Chen Wenzhou through the phone and beat him up to vent his anger.

"At a time like this, you still find it funny? I’m practically killed by you. I’m not afraid of a god-like opponent, but I dread a pig-like teammate."

Moreover, at this moment, they couldn’t even be considered teammates, at most temporarily aligned, and who knew when they might turn against each other.

After softly chuckling for a bit, Chen Wenzhou finally started to comfort Lu Yi.

"Mr. Lu, don’t panic first, calm down and listen to me."

"How could I not be anxious? You plan a trap to frame Pei Yansi and that’s fine, but why drag me into your scheme? Don’t forget I came to you sincerely seeking cooperation. Is this how you show your sincerity?"

Lu Yi was really about to explode, his grip on the phone tightening uncontrollably, almost crushing it.

"Mr. Lu, listen to me first. Even if Pei Yansi tells Shen Heyu about this, so what? Based on what I know of Shen Heyu, she will absolutely not believe this matter has anything to do with you.

"And this matter wasn’t your doing anyway. True gold isn’t afraid of fire. Even if they dig three feet into the ground, they won’t be able to pin it on you. Once Pei Yansi investigates further and finds it was a false alarm accusing you wrongly, and Shen Heyu hears Pei Yansi overturn his previous statement, what do you think she will think?"

Chen Wenzhou’s words indeed had a cooling effect; Lu Yi, after hearing them, wasn’t as infuriated, his mind slowly regained rationality and calm.

"Are you saying that, once Pei Yansi changes his story, his credibility in Shen Heyu’s eyes will be greatly reduced, and their trust in each other will further collapse?"

Fortunately, Lu Yi wasn’t foolish; he quickly grasped the intention behind Chen Wenzhou’s words, who smiled in relief.

Lu Yi didn’t speak immediately but slowly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing outside and falling into a lengthy silence as his mind swiftly calculated the gains and losses of the situation.

Chen Wenzhou knew what Lu Yi was thinking and continued to seductively assure him, "Mr. Lu, please rest assured. I handle matters flawlessly, with absolutely no mistakes. This issue will definitely not affect Mr. Lu’s relationship with Miss Shen."

"Even if Shen Heyu believes him and becomes suspicious of you, within three days, Pei Yansi will be forced to clear your name. By then, as Shen Heyu and Pei Yansi experience a trust crisis, think about who would benefit the most?" fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm

Hearing his words, Lu Yi chuckled briefly, "That would naturally be most beneficial to the Chen family."

Chen Wenzhou didn’t deny Lu Yi’s words but added with a smile, "It might also benefit you, as we are both now grasshoppers on the same string."

"Are you saying you agree to ally with me?"

"Correct, consider this incident a little gift from me to Mr. Lu upon our first meeting; I hope we have a pleasant collaboration."

Lu Yi took a deep breath and said, "Pleasant collaboration."

As he watched his victorious smile reflected in the glass, he curved the corners of his lips. Suddenly, he noticed an extra shadow behind him.
