592 Maternal Solo
Shi Xi’s eyes were filled with confusion when she heard Ning Yu’s question.
“Ah?” Shi Xi ignored Ning Yu’s meaning.
As she recalled Ning Yu’s words, Shi Xi was even more puzzled.
How did Ning Yu know that she and Xie Yunzhou were at odds?
Shi Xi’s thoughts were practically written all over her face, and Ning Yu could tell with a single glance that the two of them had yet to reconcile.
Ning Yu entered the room and did not ask any further.
Shi Xi was perplexed, but she did not dare to ask Ning Yu.
Xie Yunzhou had suddenly appeared to help her.
But why?
Could Xie Yunzhou appear and disappear as he pleased?
When Shi Xi returned to her room, she lay on her bed and tried to recall what had happened, but she was so angry that she couldn’t fall asleep.
On what basis?
Shi Xi sat up and pounded her pillow to vent her anger.
After a few hits, the pillow was broken, and the feathers inside flew out.
Shi Xi was even angrier.

The next morning, Han Chuan called.
“Huh?” Shi Xi fumbled for her phone.
“Leng Qiankun refused to explain that you’re not the mistress.” Han Chuan went straight to the point.
Shi Xi had originally fallen asleep in anger, but now, her mood was even worse.
“Did he tell you the reason?” Shi Xi asked.
“No, he didn’t. I’m guessing it’s because his future father-in-law is the president of a bank, and he needs money.” The truth was similar to Han Chuan’s guess.
Leng Qiankun’s new project needed financial support, and only Zhou Xiangyuan’s father could lend him such a large sum of money.
With this layer of reason, even if Shi Xi appeared, the result would be the same.
Leng Qiankun did like her.
But he liked money more.
“Go and check on Zhou Xiangyuan’s father,” Shi Xi said after some thought.
“I’m just an agent in the entertainment industry, not a private detective,” Han Chuan said, speechless.
“Then find a private detective!” Shi Xi thought to herself, ‘Do you still need me to teach you this?’
“Do you really want to play this big? He’s the president of a bank,” Han Chuan said calmly. “He might have some ties with the Shi family.”
“Let’s investigate it first,” Shi Xi said.
Anyway, they were paying for a private detective, and they were not the ones squatting down.

On the other hand, the police had investigated the woman who had poured sulfuric acid, Zhao Zhu.
In the end, they found on Zhao Zhu’s phone that she had once searched for news about ‘Shi Xi Third Party’ and had even published malicious rumors about it.
In the comments section, some netizens exposed Shi Xi’s filming location.
The police speculated that Zhao Zhu’s ex-husband had an affair, and when Zhao Zhu saw the content, she was filled with resentment, so she bought sulfuric acid and splashed it on Shi Xi.
They did not find any information regarding the hiring of assassins.
After the investigation, the police also issued a notice to announce the results of the investigation and called for everyone to follow the star rationally.
There were different comments below.
[What a pity. Shi Xi should have been the one to be disfigured. This Sister Zhao is so pitiful.]
[Isn’t Shi Xi going to be arrested by the police? It’s good to have a good background.]
[Shi Xi is the victim, right? Didn’t that guy who failed to splash sulfuric acid and was splashed by it in return deserve it?]
[If Shi Xi wasn’t a mistress, why would she have been splashed with sulfuric acid?]
Shi Xi felt as if she had lost her wits when she saw the heated discussions online.
Forget it, don’t be angry. No one can replace you if you get sick from anger.
Just then, Han Chuan sent a message saying that he had hired a private detective.
[By the way, check on this Zhao Zhu.]
It wasn’t that she didn’t trust the police, but if she paid a private detective to investigate, she might be able to find something unexpected.
The netizens were all looking forward to Shi Xi’s reply. They tagged her one after another, hoping that she would respond to the ‘three wise men should know three’ matter.
[@Shi Xi: Release any evidence you have. I’m not afraid. I’ve been single since being in my mother’s womb, smile.]
