Chapter 74
As soon as Xiao Ziyuan left the office building, he saw Chen Mubai leaning against the car and smoking, and the cigarette butts at his feet were piled up into a hill. It seemed that he had been waiting for a long time.
He knew that Chen Mubai was used to being generous and rarely drove by himself, but he did not see the driver at this moment.
Chen Mubai looked up and saw Xiao Ziyuan, and smiled reluctantly, "Since the old man had something wrong, I have to avoid the relationship in my hands, and I have to think about it. This time... I'm afraid I really have to ask you to help me."
Xiao Ziyuan is the most stable and sensible in their generation. How many people say he is a natural politician, with a dark and low-key character, wise and calm character, family background, background, education, and qualifications, everything he deserves, not only but also the most outstanding one, even his happy family is envious.
Chen Mubai and Xiao Ziyuan have a tacit understanding of brothers. They don’t have much contact on weekdays. Even if they meet at dinner, they won’t say a word. However, when they need help, they don’t even need to greet them. They will definitely do their best to help.
To be honest, Xiao Ziyuan was shocked when he saw Chen Mubai. Chen Mubai was always glamorous. When did he be so embarrassed? "You won't wait here when you call me, right?"
Chen Mubai couldn't even laugh when he was joking, "I can only wait for Mr. Xiao to be plagued by business affairs."
Xiao Ziyuan was dissatisfied and took a few quick steps to get on the bus. "I really can't get away today. Let's go, I've gotten in touch with you."
When Chen Mubai and Xiao Ziyuan arrived, they heard that Du Zhong was taking someone inside to interrogate, so they waited outside.
Xiao Ziyuan saw that Chen Mubai was in a state of ease and comforted him, "Don't worry, Du Zhong is pretty good, he won't use those messy methods."
Chen Mubai nodded, feeling even more uncomfortable.
This was his second time here, it was gloomy and cold, and he didn't know if she would be afraid.
Du Zhong looked at the woman opposite the table, and she sat there and said expressionlessly. The logic was clear and there was no loophole, and it seemed to be...fake.
Everything she said was to prove that Chen Mingmo was innocent and that she did everything.
He looked at the middle-aged man in uniform next to him and asked the first question, "What about your motivation?"
Gu Jiusi lowered his eyes and curled his lips and smiled, "You don't need motivation, don't you? The longer this matter is, the more difficult it is. Chen Mingmo does not plead guilty, and you dare not interrogate him deeply. Now there is someone who comes to the fore. Isn't this the best result?"
Du Zhong also smiled, "Ms. Gu, even if I want to close the case again, I still have to have what I have written."
Gu Jiusi thought for a few seconds and replied, "I have been in the Chen family for so many years. What do you think is for? Chen Mingmo's body can't last long. Chen Muyun is a fool. He can kill himself without me taking action. Chen Mubai probably thought I really like him. He agreed to whatever I said. As long as Chen Muzhao is apart from Chen Muzhao, the Chen family can change their surname. Chen Muzhao's body is like that. I mixed poison into his medicine, and he couldn't notice anything."
Du Zhong really couldn't tell that this indifferent woman had such ambition, and she was a little confused, "So, are you the position of the Chen family?"
Gu Jiusi nodded and admitted, "Is there any problem? Rights and * are things that everyone yearns for, and I am no exception."
Du Zhong was silent. When he met Chen Mubai, Chen Mubai said that he would find the most suitable person to resolve the situation. He was curious about who this person was. It was not until after seeing Gu Jiusi that he felt that Chen Mubai was really cruel and vicious enough, so he actually pushed her out to take the blame.
He lowered his head and read Gu Jiusi's information again.
She has been in the Chen family for many years, helped Chen Mingmo and Chen Mubai do things, and was scheming and strategy. Many people fell into her hands. She also has a certain influence in the Chen family and can easily find the time and motivation for the crime. She is indeed the most suitable candidate.
But he also knew that Gu Jiusi and Chen Mubai were in a lover relationship. Was she voluntarily or forced today?
The middle-aged man next to Du Zhong suddenly asked, "Where is Chen Muyun's mother? Why do you want to harm her?"
Gu Jiusi didn't blink, "A husband brought a young girl into the door. As a wife, can she tolerate it? She couldn't bear it, but she couldn't argue with her husband. She could only make things difficult for the little girl. The little girl was forced to do anything."
After hearing this, the middle-aged man looked at Du Zhong for a few seconds, raised his eyebrows, as if he was hinting at something.
In fact, whether Chen Muyun's mother died prematurely due to poisoning, they have not yet investigated, but no matter what they asked, she recognized her well and her motive for the crime made sense. She looked very calm on the surface, but she seemed to be in a hurry to confess her guilt.
Du Zhong asked the last question, "Since that's the case, why are you from the head? Your plan is about to succeed, why have you given up?"
Gu Jiusi was also prepared for this question, and gave the answer with a blank expression, "I have found my conscience."
When Du Zhong and his group came out, they met Chen Mubai and Xiao Ziyuan.
Chen Mubai recognized the middle-aged man behind Du Zhong, but he was wearing a uniform and was full of righteousness, and he did not see the leisure that day.
Du Zhong was not surprised to see Chen Mubai, and raised the folder in his hand, smiling and praising, "Mu Wu's answer sheet is beautiful, I think Ling Zun can go home soon."
Chen Mubai probably guessed what Gu Jiusi said, "What she said is fake! It wasn't her doing!"
Du Zhong suddenly looked serious, "I advise Mr. Mu not to be confused. A woman knows the principle of calming things down. Mr. Mu will not understand. Don't say something random!"
Chen Mubai wanted to say something that was stopped by Xiao Ziyuan. Xiao Ziyuan knew Du Zhong's style of conduct. Chen Mubai was worried and chaotic, so he argued with him in public, so he smiled and smoothed out.
Du Zhong and Xiao Ziyuan had a few dealings, and were happy to give him this face. He smiled and left quickly.
After Du Zhong left, Xiao Ziyuan urged, "Go in quickly, I'll wait for you outside."
Chen Mubai looked at the woman opposite with a cold face. She was still wearing the clothes she had left in the morning, but she was a little messy. She looked calm and even had a very faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and she was as quiet as she had seen her for the first time.
Chen Mubai's long silence made Gu Jiusi more and more uneasy. She knew that he would be angry. She thought she would scold her in anger, but since he came in, he just looked at her coldly and didn't speak, which made her heart colder and colder.
Gu Jiusi sorted out the broken hair on his forehead a little crampedly, but a hint of hostility flashed in Chen Mubai's eyes.
He moved his fingers and finally sat there, just asking, "Who did you hit?"
Only then did Gu Jiusi realize that he quickly put the broken hair back to his previous position and said lightly, "No one beat me, I fell myself."
Chen Mubai's face suddenly turned blue, the lines of his jaw were stiff and sharp, and the long-depressed emotions finally broke out. He gritted his teeth and suppressed his thoughts of rushing over, "You are a woman, why do I want you to be so loyal!"
Under his turbulent anger, Gu Jiusi was very calm, "Chen Mubai, not loyal."
Every time she called his name with her first name, Chen Mubai would tremble, "What did you say?"
Gu Jiusi looked at his eyes and explained seriously, "Chen Mubai, I said I am not loyal to you. If I am loyal, my loyal object should be your father, not you."
Chen Mubai lowered his eyes. If he was not loyal, then what was it?
The two of them were tacit, but Gu Jiusi knew that he would never have the chance to say that word again.
Chen Mubai's face became more and more angular, and he frowned and asked her, "Do you know what it means to do this today? Killing someone to pay for his life. Du Zhong's action is very fast. Do you just want to die so much!"
Gu Jiusi couldn't laugh anymore, and stared at him with wide eyes, as if he was angry, "What about you? You sent me away just to take the blame, won't you die?"
Chen Mubai frowned even deeper, "I am different from you. They will worry about my identity and will leave me a life."
Gu Jiusi stopped seeing him, "It is because we are different that this matter is much simpler. They have no need to worry about it. This is a simple intentional homicide case, and everyone is satisfied."
There was a table between them, and Chen Mubai stood there on the table with his hands and looked at her and sneered, "Ha, everyone?! Who is in this so-called 'everyone'? Are you there? Are you there?!"
Gu Jiusi's ears were so painful that he yelled. She rubbed her ears before slowly speaking, "Don't worry, I won't die for the time being."
"Why?"
"Because I'm pregnant with your child, they have to wait for me to give birth to the child."
"Gu Jiusi!" Chen Mubai calmed down his lips, his face became more and more depressed. The anger in his eyes could not be suppressed this time, but his tone was extremely calm, and he spit out a few words word by word, "I wish I could strangle you to death now!"
Gu Jiusi could feel him trembling with anger through a table. She could understand that if she had been replaced, she would have been angry.
Chen Mubai suddenly stood up and turned around and left. After walking a few steps, he stopped and said something to her back, his tone was cold and lonely, which made Gu Jiusi suddenly shed tears.
"Gu Jiusi, have you ever thought of me when you did all this? Even if it was a slightest bit? You have finally learned to be cruel, but all your cruelty is used on me."
He no longer saw the anger he had just now, but the calmness after the storm was so terrible, so terrible that it made her tremble.
Gu Jiusi quickly raised his hand to wipe away the tears from his face, with a tremor that was not easy to detect in his voice, as if he was afraid that he would never see him again, "Chen Mubai, that same heart knot, I was taken away when I came in, remember to go back. I don't believe you don't understand what a married couple is. At that time, you said that I would save it for you, and now you can go back. A married couple, and you will be in love. You should come back to your life and die as long as you miss it."
Chen Mubai did not answer, and after a while he turned around and yelled at her with red eyes, "Of course I will come back! What a lovesickness! You are not worthy! Gu Jiusi, you are not worthy of me, Chen Mubai, treat you like this!"
He said it too hard, and the tears she had been holding back fell down again. She also felt wronged and hatred. All the grievances and hatred turned into a few words and shouted at him, "What about you? When you asked me to leave, you didn't even think about going to pick me up! You liar!"
Chen Mubai suddenly laughed, and there was no sign of any unhappiness except for the redness of his eyes. "Yes, I am a liar. Gu Jiusi, I have never liked you before, I just played with you. What you saw before, I did all fake, I deliberately made you think I would come to take the blame. Who is Chen Mubai? Do you still don't understand, how could I take the blame by myself? Look, have you been fooled? Why do you still trust others so easily after staying in the Chen family for so long?"
The tears on Gu Jiusi's face gradually dried up, and he watched him stop talking.
When Chen Mubai spoke again, his tone became more and more frivolous, "Why, are you angry? You made me so many words before, but I just collected interest. Don't you remember the fact that you and Chen Mingmo joined forces to make me lose that position in the south? That position is so important, I have always remembered it."
Gu Jiusi calmed down too. The more he wanted to make her angry, the more calm she became. She lowered her head and stared at her right hand, murmured softly, "Even if it's fake, I will admit it."
The smile on Chen Mubai's face became stiff and then gradually disappeared. He glared at Gu Jiusi hatefully for a while and left without looking back.
The door was thrown to the sky. Gu Jiusi knew that he had left, but she still lowered her eyes and continued to whisper, "But I know... that's not fake..."
A tear fell on her hands and burned on her heart.
