Chapter 54
"The investigation results are out. It was indeed man-made." Xu Xiuhe took Zhengzheng from Shen Yin's arms.
"Let Zhengzheng play in the living room first." Shen Yin walked towards the kitchen. Xu Xiuhe understood that although Zhengzheng was still young, it would be better if he didn't hear about these bad things.
In the open kitchen, Shen Yin poked her head out to look at Zhengzheng in the living room while asking Xu Xiuhe about the investigation results.
"The monitoring last night showed that someone had loosened all the screws fixing the stage. This morning when Shu Yi got on stage, someone hid under the stage, removed some screws, and then crawled out from behind. It looks like the same person. The number and position of screws removed were precalculated, so the stage collapsed towards the middle and the spotlight fell towards the middle."
"So where is this person now?"
"At the police station. He took all the responsibility and said he wanted to destroy something he couldn't obtain."
"This person is a pervert, right?"
"Probably not. Why didn't you let me stop this accident from happening last night?" Xu Xiuhe asked.
"First, I wanted to confirm again whether what I dreamed would really happen. Second, I didn't want to alert the enemy. But now it seems it would have been better to stop it last night. However, if we had stopped it last night, we wouldn't know what would have happened instead." Shen Yin said.
"He's not a pervert. Someone is behind him, he's just acting tough." Xu Xiuhe said.
While Shen Yin was cooking, she kept thinking about the person behind this. Her intuition had always been very accurate. If it was Gu Mengmeng, she felt very sorry for Shu Yi. It was because of her that Shu Yi offended Gu Mengmeng.
What they didn't know was that Chang Zhiyuan had already investigated and found that although there was no evidence, he could still blacklist Gu Mengmeng across the entire Internet over the argument she had with them at the studio.
Xu Xiuhe was washing vegetables at the sink. The sound of running water drowned out the knock at the door. Shen Yin was chopping vegetables and didn't hear it either. Zhengzheng in the living room was the one who heard the knock and got up, toddling towards the door on his little legs.
"Zhengzheng, what are you going to do?" Shen Yin noticed Zhengzheng running to the door and called out to stop him, putting down the knife in her hand.
Xu Xiuhe turned off the faucet. Only then did he hear the knock at the door. He put down the vegetables in his hands and picked up a nearby dry towel to wipe his hands, saying, "Someone's knocking. I'll go open the door."
"Good evening!" Chang Zhiyuan poked his head in.
"Why have you come again?" Xu Xiuhe was already used to Chang Zhiyuan coming over to mooch dinner from time to time.
Chang Zhiyuan gave a mischievous grin. "You go in first."
Xu Xiuhe thought Chang Zhiyuan was talking to him. He reluctantly moved back and said unwillingly, "Just here to mooch food but still so demanding." After speaking, he picked up Zhengzheng and went into the living room.
"I didn't mean you. I was talking to Shu Yi." Chang Zhiyuan turned his head.
Shu Yi was speechless standing outside the door. Chang Zhiyuan wanted to come and mooch dinner and insisted on dragging her along when she didn't want to appear with him at all. But Chang Zhiyuan kept threatening her.
Shu Yi was even more reluctant than Xu Xiuhe. "Move aside."
Chang Zhiyuan's eyes widened in anger. Shu Yi was his boss! How dare she talk to him like that? It was simply outrageous. Chang Zhiyuan was very angry but had nowhere to vent it, making his expression as funny as it was ridiculous. If Xue Jingrui had been there, their WeChat sticker album would have gained another entry.
After Shu Yi entered the room, she headed straight for the kitchen.
"Chang Zhiyuan made you come over?" Shen Yin saw right through it with one line.
"Yin Yin, you're so smart. But I missed you too." Shu Yi said coquettishly.
"You just saw each other half a day ago. Must you be so lovey-dovey? And Shu Yi, look at your attitude towards me. Is this how an employee should behave? Can you not be so two-faced?" Chang Zhiyuan said resentfully.
Shu Yi didn't even want to respond to Chang Zhiyuan. "How can it be the same? Yin Yin has saved me several times."
What she said made it so Xu Xiuhe next to her wanted to cut in but couldn't. His wife was awesome and had a fangirl. What could he do? Maybe he should remind them of his presence.
"Shu Yi, your accident today was man-made."
The atmosphere suddenly became heavy as it concerned Shu Yi's safety. Chang Zhiyuan immediately became serious.
"Let's talk about it after eating." Shen Yin suggested.
During the meal, the topic was brought up again.
"So you mean the suspect has someone behind him giving orders but he refuses to expose them?" Chang Zhiyuan's expression was unusually serious.
Hearing this, Xu Xiuhe said, "Yes, that's what it means. The person behind this was very careful and didn't leave any evidence."
"Shu Yi, take bodyguards with you from now on when you go out. I'll arrange two more for you."
"No need, the two I have are enough."
"Anyway, pay more attention to safety these days." Although Xu Xiuhe was speaking to Chang Zhiyuan and Shu Yi, his eyes were looking at Shen Yin.
Shu Yi noticed this small detail in Xu Xiuhe's gaze and felt she had discovered another cp moment. This kind of implicit stuff was too sweet! She would definitely become a cp fan leader sooner or later. The cp name she secretly gave Xu Xiuhe and Shen Yin with her alt account in the cp fan club was so romantic―Galaxy Couple.
Shen Yin didn't notice Xu Xiuhe looking at her as she was thinking about the Gu Mengmeng matter. After the recollection just now, she was 80% certain this was Gu Mengmeng's doing.
It looked like she would have to take some action herself these days―not only to complete some design drafts for the studio but also to find evidence. Since this all started because of her, she should be the one to resolve it.
Shen Yin couldn't sleep, watching Zhengzheng sleeping soundly. She really envied him. Children had no worries and lived so blissfully and freely.
Shen Yin lay there tossing and turning, still unable to fall asleep. She was worried she would wake Xu Xiuhe and carefully and quietly got out of bed, gently opening the door.
As soon as she took a step out and turned around, she crashed into a wall of flesh.
"Oh my god, that hurts so bad!" Shen Yin covered her forehead with her hand, looking completely wronged.
"Why aren't you sleeping this late into the night?" Shen Yin had bumped into something and her tone was unhappy.
"I went downstairs to drink some water. I just came back up and you crashed into me when I passed by here." Xu Xiuhe explained why he was at Shen Yin's door. Her head had banged right into his chin. Shouldn't he be the one shouting in pain?
But a man, a gentleman, how could he easily shout in pain? Xu Xiuhe pulled Shen Yin over, putting his palm on her forehead, "Let me see if you're badly hurt."
Xu Xiuhe rubbed Shen Yin's forehead with his palm, "Does it still hurt?"
