Chapter 82: Chapter 82 She’s Not That Stupid
Qin Nianwan looked at Sun Raorao, never anticipating that the words from last night would, in less than 24 hours, be presented to Fu Shinian unchanged. She had indeed said those words, but her sole purpose was to provoke Sun Raorao to cause trouble for Su Mu.
She could tell that someone like Sun Raorao, who had been struggling in the entertainment industry without significant success, had no connections or background. First, she was unwilling to submit to the unspoken rules, and second, she hadn’t met a suitable sponsor. Now that she had finally managed to connect with Wei Shaoqin, she would certainly not let go easily.
If she told Sun Raorao that Wei Shaoqin actually liked Su Mu, then Sun Raorao would definitely be on guard against Su Mu or, rather, target him.
That was her sole purpose in meeting Sun Raorao last night.
And Sun Raorao had played her part well yesterday, that indignant and aggrieved demeanor wasn’t faked at all. But who could have imagined that just one night later, the words Sun Raorao spoke in front of Fu Shinian had changed completely?
Qin Nianwan turned to Fu Shinian and explained almost desperately:
"Shinian, it wasn’t me, I didn’t instruct anyone to harm Su Mu..."
Fu Shinian, who had been silent all along as if watching a drama, showed no intention of interfering. It was only when Qin Nianwan asked the question herself that he slowly stopped playing with the lighter in his hand, then looked up at her. His face showed neither anger nor surprise; it was calm as if nothing had happened. However, the words he spoke pierced through Qin Nianwan’s heart as he said:
"You said you did not do anything to harm Su Mu, so those words, you indeed spoke them?"
Qin Nianwan was speechless; she knew she should deny it, but would Fu Shinian believe her if she did?
When both the sabotage of the car and the desires for Mrs. Fu’s position pointed at her, Qin Nianwan knew she had to take responsibility for something, because there are no such coincidences in the world where all things point to one person at the same time. Even if she denied it, Fu Shinian wouldn’t believe her.
So, she could only choose the lesser of two evils and admit what she had actually done.
Qin Nianwan’s silence was undoubtedly a form of admission, and Fu Shinian seeing this, actually smiled. Qin Nianwan thought he would say something, but he did not. He had no opinion about the whole matter from the start to the end.
Such silence drove Qin Nianwan crazy. She really couldn’t understand what Fu Shinian meant and couldn’t help but defend herself again:
"Shinian, believe me, I really didn’t instruct anyone to cut Wei Shaoqin’s brake line. I don’t even know which car he drove."
Sun Raorao snorted lightly but said nothing, seemingly aware that she was lying, yet too lazy to expose her.
Qin Nianwan had long wanted to shut Sun Raorao up. If she knew she was such an ungrateful snitch, why would she bother doing such a thankless task and unknowingly be manipulated by others.
She looked at Sun Raorao:
"Sun Raorao, I admit I had that conversation with you last night, but I never incited you to cut Wei Shao’s brake line. How does slandering me benefit you?"
"I’m just telling the truth, and whether it was you who cut it, Mr. Fu will find out from the investigation. If you didn’t do it, there’s no need to worry, considering your relationship with Mr. Fu, he will definitely clear your name."
Just as Qin Nianwan was about to speak, someone knocked on the room door, making everyone turn their heads to look. This surprised Song Yi, who had just left Mr. Fu’s side not long ago; how did two more people suddenly appear? And both were women, with a strong undercurrent of tension.
Jealousy?
Song Yi felt it was better not to stay long: "Mr. Fu, since you’re busy, I’ll come back later."
"Which eye of yours sees me being busy?"
Song Yi: "..."
Song Yi walked in and stood aside, saying nothing. Fu Shinian glanced lazily at him: "Have you turned mute?"
"I..." Song Yi was somewhat uncertain, "Should I say it now?"
"Otherwise, you’re planning to tell me after I’m dead through a spirit medium?"
Song Yi: "..."
"Since Miss Su arrived at the movie city yesterday, the only people she met were Wei Shaoqin and Miss Sun. No one else. I also checked the surveillance footage at the parking lot and copied it. I printed out one of the clearer pictures." After finishing his remarks, Song Yi handed a piece of information to Fu Shinian: "Mr. Fu, you should recognize this person."
Fu Shinian gave it a quick glance and then looked away, turning to Sun Raorao:
"Miss Sun, you can go back first."
Sun Raorao couldn’t wait to leave, but she still had something to say:
"Mr. Fu, I must apologize. Despite knowing there might be something wrong with the car, I only made an excuse to pull Wei Shaoqin away and didn’t inform Miss Su. This led her into danger. I indeed had my own selfish motives. I thought, if Qin Nianwan really did it, exposing her later wouldn’t hurt. I also wanted to see what kind of importance Miss Su holds in Wei Shaoqin’s heart, but I hadn’t expected to put you in danger too."
Fu Shinian just looked at her, without saying anything further.
Song Yi watched Sun Raorao’s retreating figure, indicating he too wanted to leave, but he dared not. He was afraid Mr. Fu would kill him and then offer this month’s salary to his spirit.
After Sun Raorao left, Qin Nianwan became even more agitated. She wanted to ask something but didn’t know where to start.
Not until Fu Shinian lit another cigarette and gently pushed a sheet of paper from the file toward Qin Nianwan with the hand holding the cigarette, asking her:
"This person is not unfamiliar to you, right?"
Qin Nianwan, not understanding, bent down to pick up the paper and realized it was a surveillance screenshot from the parking lot. Someone was crawling out from under Wei Shaoqin’s car, and to her disbelief, it was Li Si, her own driver. She stared wide-eyed and pushed the paper far away, as if that could prove she had nothing to do with the incident.
"It wasn’t me, I truly didn’t do it."
Fu Shinian’s gaze slowly fell on the abandoned piece of paper, and he chuckled softly:
"You just claimed that Sun Raorao was framing you. Now the surveillance confirms that it was indeed your man tampering with Wei Shaoqin’s car. So are you now going to tell me that your driver conspired with Sun Raorao to set you up?"
Qin Nianwan attempted to speak, but Fu Shinian, rising from the sofa, stopped her:
"Nianwan, the more you say, the worse it gets. Think carefully about what you should say. Maybe you can tell me Sun Raorao, dissatisfied with being overshadowed by you on set, bribed your driver to retaliate against you. Yet, it was only yesterday she learned from you about any connection between me and Su Mu. Even after knowing, I don’t think she would consider Su Mu important, as everyone knows you are my legitimate partner. So do you think she would harm someone insignificant to me just to create discord between us?"
Fu Shinian stepped closer to her, smiling slightly:
"I don’t think she’s that foolish."
