It has nothing to do with me
Si Lianye remained calm and said to his mother: "I have something to say to you."
Originally, he had planned to wait until the banquet was over before he could talk to her. But now, it seemed that he should just forget about it.
Imperial Mother's Mother Area froze on his face, frowning slightly: What do you want to tell me?
Si Lianye curled her lips: "Believe me, you won't want others to hear about this."
Imperial Mother looked at him fixedly again: "Alright, come with me."
She made many guesses in an instant, but as soon as her son opened his mouth, she knew that none of them were true.
She looked at him with an ashen face. "Where did you hear this from?"
"Don't worry about where I heard it from, just tell me, is what I'm saying really related to you?" he asked.
Imperial Mother looked at his son in anger: "Do you really think I am such an unbearable person? I've never interfered with what happened that year, and now you're actually asking me such a question? Am I still your mother? "
"You mean, this really has nothing to do with you?" "No," he said.
"Of course not, I think you're crazy for this period of time? Hm? Was it instigated by that woman? She can't stand me, can she? I knew she hated me the last time. What do you keep a woman like that for? "Huh?" She shouted angrily, looking as if she really wanted to do it.
Si Lianye looked at her deeply: "This matter has nothing to do with her, it was Si Haiyan who told me this, you don't have to be so nervous, he casually said it, there's no evidence, so I'm asking you this, why are you angry?"
Imperial Mother laughed coldly, "Even though the child disappeared without a trace when the accident happened, how old was he then? Even if a person didn't die, he might not even be able to remember what happened. At this time, someone suddenly appeared and said that it was Si Haiyan, don't you think it's strange that not only did you not investigate him, but instead listened to his words and interrogated me? "
Si Lianye's face darkened, "Of course I've already investigated him. He is indeed a member of our Si Family."
"That doesn't mean anything." She raised her voice and said, "So how did he spend all these years? Why did I come back at this time to tell you all this? There must be a conspiracy behind this! "
"Is that so? I'll go through all this slowly. " He slowly said, "I was just curious so I asked you, but looking at your energetic look, I was relieved. It's not that you are the best, otherwise I really wouldn't want to make a move."
"Hmph, even if he's serious, it seems that you value him more than me. Hmph, those are people like you who only know how to talk inside and out."
Si Lianye's expression darkened, "I just want to know what happened back then and I want to seek justice for him. After all, they were two lives back then and they were even my uncle and aunt, my father's relatives."
Imperial Mother's lips carried a mocking expression: "I didn't know that my son actually had such a sense of justice. It's such a pity that I didn't send you to become a public servant back then."
The cold ridicule caused his expression to change, "I hope it's the same as you said, otherwise …"
"Or what? Will you take me to the police station? " she asked, staring at him coldly.
He pursed his lips, not saying a word. After a while, he said, "I'm leaving."
With that, he turned around and left.
Imperial Mother stared fixedly at his back, the expression in her eyes complex beyond words.
After Si Lianye left, she no longer had the mood to socialize with others. She walked out with large strides, casually dealt with the crowd, and then started to search for traces of Shen Xiran.
She said before that she wanted to go out and get some fresh air …
His eyes narrowed as he strode out.
The garden was not that big. Even though there were a lot of plants growing in the middle and flowers blooming, one could still see everything clearly.
However, after sweeping a glance, he didn't see her. He couldn't help but be startled and his face immediately darkened.
He had previously said that he would protect her well, so he didn't even bring Zhuo Ya along.
His heart skipped a beat as he looked around.
Finally, he saw a small group of people in an inconspicuous corner.
Before he even got close, the sounds of arguing could be heard.
"You said that you were the one who did it? The person I clearly saw was you, and you still dare to argue with me! " The voice came from a familiar, domineering woman.
He frowned as he looked over, and realized that there were about five or six people surrounding Shen Xiran. None of their expressions were very friendly, at least they had a look of schadenfreude.
Shen Xiran, on the other hand, was not afraid. He looked at them calmly: "If I said there's no one left, then there's no point in slandering me."
"Slander, who do you think you are? Why should I slander you? Who do you think you are? This is really funny, let me tell you, when Wen Qi comes out later, you better apologize obediently, otherwise don't blame me for being rude. "
"I will definitely apologize if I did it. I don't need you to tell me, but I didn't do it. So, if you want me to apologize, don't even think about it!"
Shen Xiran looked up with a resolute face.
At this time, Si Lianye also realised that the one who spoke was Lu Lejia.
She's back?
He frowned, and raised his head to look at Shen Xiran.
Lu Lejia continued to speak in an overbearing tone: "You still won't admit it even now, we have all seen it, you are truly shameless, Eldest Brother Si has really taken a fancy to you to the point of being blind, you vicious, shameless woman!"
She pointed at Shen Xiran and cursed.
Si Lianye's face sank as he walked over, and under everyone's shocked gaze, he carried Shen Xiran in his arms. "What are you saying? "Tell me about it?"
His lips curled up slightly, making him seem completely harmless, yet it made people's hearts tremble upon seeing him.
"You're out?" Shen Xiran raised his eyebrows, and looked at him with an unfriendly gaze.
Si Lianye's attention was actually focused on the Lu Lejia in front of him. "I remember that you're no longer in the country, why are you back?"
That voice was filled with disdain, it was even worse than a scolding in front of everyone, Lu Lejia's face started to heat up.
"I... "I just came back …" Seeing Si Lianye's calm expression, she thought that she was just casually chatting with her, but the moment she opened her mouth, she discovered that his eyes were filled with coldness.
Her heart turned cold.
"Is that so? Looks like your information is quite well-informed. " He glanced at the woman in his arms and said with a fake smile, "I just feel like you don't have the right to judge me, do you?"
She was trembling. "Actually, I didn't mean it that way. She … she just did something terrible. That's why I said that about her. Really."
As he spoke, he secretly winked at the people around him.
Everyone else could only agree: "Yes, yes, she actually secretly cut open Fang Wenqi's skirt just now, causing her to cry on the spot …"
"Yeah, yeah …" Otherwise, we wouldn't treat the Miss Shen like this … "
Lu Lejia heaved a sigh of relief and said to Si Lianye: "Did you hear that? She had just secretly ripped Wen Qin's skirt, which nearly caused everyone to leave. That's why I'm so angry with her for saying that. "
He looked at Shen Xiran with an inquiring gaze, and she looked at him with his clear eyes: "I didn't, I didn't do that, I only lightly touched her, my hand didn't touch her clothes at all."
She felt very unlucky tonight.
Originally, when they came out, they had wanted to relax and didn't want to see the harsh look on the Imperial Mother's face. In the end, they found out that they were familiar with each other, Fang Wenqi and Lu Lejia.
Furthermore, she saw them, but since they didn't see her, she was prepared to dodge. However, she didn't expect the two of them to be walking as they talked, so she didn't notice that there was another person in front of her.
She didn't have a good impression of either of them. One of them was mindless, while the other one was crying because she didn't know how to use her brain. She was the only one who could cry because everyone was a bad person and she was the only one who was pitifully bullied.
Therefore, she wanted to avoid him the moment she saw him, but there was no way to avoid him.
He could only nod at them with a frown, then walk away.
Although Lu Lejia and Fang Wenqi looked at her with weird expressions, they did not say anything. After all, her big backer was right there, so anyone who wanted to cause trouble for her would have to think about it carefully.
However, not long after she left, she suddenly heard noises coming from somewhere. When she turned around to look, she realized that Lu Lejia was hugging Fang Wenqi with all her might while Fang Wenqi was leaning on her shoulder, convulsing as if she was crying.
What happened?
The doubt in her heart had not yet receded when she realized that Lu Lejia had brought Fang Wenqi to the neighboring room. After a while, a person came out.
As soon as she came out, she looked around, as if looking for someone.
She could only blame herself for being too conspicuous in her current position. Lu Lejia had already noticed her at first glance, and in a moment of shock, she walked over with a face full of anger.
Before she could ask what had happened, she saw her raise her hand in preparation to slap him.
Her hands moved quickly and blocked the attack. She could not help but feel anger burning in her heart: "Lu Lejia, are you crazy?"
Lu Lejia laughed coldly: "Since you've walked out of such a filthy place, you should be aware of the fact that you're being taught a lesson. Release me!"
Shen Xiran looked at her coldly: "I didn't do anything, how dare you make a move against me?"
Lu Lejia was so angry that her face flushed: "You didn't do anything? You despicable, shameless woman! "
Even though she said that, after Shen Xiran put her arm down, she still didn't dare to hit him anymore.
Shen Xiran felt very innocent: "I told you before, I didn't do anything to her.
"You're still trying to quibble? The only person who managed to come into contact with her was you, and it can't be that I cut her skirt, right? Could it be herself? " Lu Lejia sneered again and again: "Let me tell you, Shen Xiran, don't think that you can fool us just because you have good martial arts. You can't leave without giving us an explanation today!"
When Shen Xiran heard it, what did he do to his skirt?
She was naturally trying to defend herself. However, the other party did not believe her at all. Furthermore, more and more people started to criticize her. It was as if they had all seen what had happened.
She felt that since she had not done anything, she would definitely not apologize. Furthermore, Lu Lejia knew that it was an extremely shameless action for her not to apologize when she did something wrong.
Following that, Si Lianye came over.
After Si Lianye heard her words, she patted her shoulder and said, "Leave her to me."
She smiled gently at him. His eyes were filled with dependence.
This scene made Fang Wenqi and Lu Lejia, who had just finished arranging their skirts, feel flames in their eyes.
