When Dongfang Xi woke up, she realized that she was already at home. She looked at the old man sitting on the sofa and cried aggrievedly. “Grandpa, Grandpa, you have to seek justice for me!”
Dongfang Ke’s face was ashen as he threw the photo at her face. He was so angry that his voice was trembling. “Look at yourself. Is that you up there?”
Even if Shui Shui had left the Dongfang Family, she was still the only bloodline of his old friend. No matter where she was, he would not ignore her!
The older a person was, the more afraid they were of death. He was afraid that Shui Shui would bring bad luck to their Dongfang Family, so he tacitly agreed to let the eldest son’s family cause trouble and let her leave the Dongfang Family on her own accord.
However, this did not mean that he did not care about her. If he really did not care about her, how would he explain it to his old friend in the future?
“Grandpa, I don’t know. I really don’t know. They wronged me.” All Dongfang Xi could do now was deny it.
The photo was of her coming out of the washroom, but this did not mean anything, nor could it prove that she had done it. They could not do anything to her.
“You still don’t want to admit it? Do you want me to take out the family law?” Dongfang Ke’s face was ashen. He picked up a stack of documents and a few photos on the table and threw them at her face. “You don’t know this person either, right?”
Dongfang Xi took a look. It was the person she had found to spread Wen Ruoshui’s rumors at the hospital. When she had given him money, they had been photographed. Her expression changed slightly, and she continued to lie stubbornly, trying to bluff her way out. “Grandpa, how did you get this? Did they spout nonsense to you? This person is just a medicine seller. I bought some medicine from him.”
The photo was of her meeting the middle-aged cleaner at the bar. However, in order to prevent future trouble, she had already gotten someone to deal with this middle-aged man.
It was definitely impossible for them to find this person, nor could they find any clues to the rumors she had spread. She was not stupid enough to leave behind a disaster.
Had Dongfang Chu or Wen Ruoshui done it? Had she actually sensed it long ago and sent someone to follow her?
“Sell medicine? What medicine?” Dongfang Ke’s face darkened. He had lived for so long. If he could not tell that she was lying, he would have lived in vain.
“What kind of medicine can there be in a bar?” Dongfang Xi shrugged indifferently. “Of course, it’s that kind of medicine. It can make people happy and relax.”
When Dongfang Ke heard this, she frowned and pointed at her angrily. “You unfilial daughter. How dare you take that kind of medicine in a bar? Are you trying to anger me to death?”
“Then, Grandpa, you forced me to break up with him. Have you thought about my feelings?” Dongfang Xi had already gotten a new boyfriend. She no longer had any feelings for her ex-boyfriend. However, she still had to use this incident to gain his trust and sympathy.
“Dongfang Xi, I think you won’t shed tears until you see the coffin. Are you sure you want to be stubborn to the end?” Nangong Lengyu stood up and looked down at her coldly.
“Why should I admit it? Who do you think you are? How dare you shout in front of my grandpa?” Dongfang Xi confirmed that she was not a descendant of a wealthy family in the capital. She had never seen her before. She looked at Dongfang Ji and complained, “Grandpa, it’s her. She’s Wen Ruoshui’s boyfriend.”
Humph!
Grandpa cared the most about the children’s marriage. Even if Wen Ruoshui was chased away, Grandpa would not let her find a random boyfriend.
She was about to be finished with this pretty boy in front of her. It was definitely impossible for them to be together.
“Shut up!” Dongfang Ke glared at her fiercely. At this point, she still dared to spout nonsense. Wasn’t she embarrassed?
What pretty boy? Don’t speak if you don’t know anything!
After being scolded by the Old Master, Dongfang Xi held her breath in her chest. She bit her lips with an unconvinced expression, but she did not dare to speak anymore.
What had the pretty boy said to Grandpa? Why did she feel like Grandpa was on his side? Shouldn’t Grandpa have chased him away?
In the past, Dongfang Ke would often go overseas to see Dongfang Chu and Wen Ruoshui. After some time, he naturally knew Nangong Lengyu. In addition, before the Nangong Family moved overseas, they were also a big family in China and were familiar with each other!
Yu’er was a girl. What boyfriend? It turned out that Xixi had said that she had a boyfriend. She was talking about Yu’er. However, no matter who she was talking about, she had already left. If he was unwilling to let her come back, she would definitely not agree either.
“Grandpa.” Nangong Lengyu looked at Dongfang Xi and said very politely, “You saw it, right? It’s not that I don’t want to give you face, but she has no intention of repentance.”
Logically speaking, the Dongfang Family had a strict upbringing. She had thought that the daughters of the Dongfang Family were as gentle, kind, and sensible as Chu Chu. She had not expected there to be such a disgusting thing like Dongfang Xi.
Dongfang Ke was also extremely disappointed. He looked at her and said, “What other evidence do you have? Take them out now. If you really prove that she did it, I definitely won’t side with her.”
How could the daughter of the Dongfang family do such an embarrassing thing? It was fine if she did it, but she was even caught red-handed. Even he was implicated.
Nangong Lengyu ordered the bodyguard beside her softly. Soon, the bodyguard bribed and brought the cleaner who had spread the rumors about Wen Ruoshui.
Dongfang Chu had gotten someone to follow and take the cleaner’s photo, but she had not been able to find him. Yan Yuanfei had helped her find him.
Therefore, if there was anything she could not solve, she would still have to look for him. Dongfang Chu had searched for a long time but had not found any clues. He used an hour to find the person.
When the middle-aged cleaner saw Dongfang Xi, his face turned pale and his body trembled. His legs went limp. It was her. It was this woman. After giving him the money, she was afraid that he would leak the secret and hire someone to kill him!
“Is she the one who asked you to spread Doctor Wen’s rumors?” Nangong Lengyu pointed at Dongfang Xi. “Look carefully. Tell the truth. The people here will seek justice for you.”
The cleaner nodded and looked at her in fear. “It’s her. She was the one who found someone to kill me.”
This uncle was a gambler. He could not earn much as a cleaner at the hospital and owed a lot of money to loan sharks. He did not have any morals when it came to gambling. As long as he was paid enough, he would do whatever he was told to do.
Dongfang Xi had given him 50,000 yuan to defame Wen Ruoshui. It was very simple for him. However, this person was greedy. Later, he had threatened Dongfang Xi to ask her for money. Otherwise, he would have told Wen Ruoshui about their deal.
Dongfang Xi had not expected to find trouble for herself. She had been threatened twice by him asking her for money. She was not someone to be trifled with. After being forced into a corner, she had decided to hire someone to kill him to prevent any future trouble.
