Chapter 159: 159 Borrowing Your Hand_1
Old Ma felt a pang of guilt and reluctantly nodded.
“I’m sorry, Miss Song, I knew about it in advance, but I couldn’t and didn’t dare to speak up.”
“How dare she? I want to know what Gu Yuanzhou thinks when he finds out.”
“Miss Song, I suggest it’s best not to expose her to President Gu!”
Old Ma persuaded me to stop.
“Are you still defending her? Listen, Gu Yuanzhou is very shrewd. If he finds out that Ye Mengyan drugged him, he will never forgive her.”
Old Ma shook his head.
“You’ll come out worse!”
“Why?”
“Because she used you to administer the drug!”
She used me?”
I was confused initially, not understanding how Ye Mengyan had used me.
It was then that Old Ma explained to me.
“After Miss Song fired Yuan Li, Miss Ye was very unhappy and kept talking about getting Miss Song in trouble. One day she came to me just as Miss Song’s bag was left in the car. She rummaged through it and found the packet of powder… I didn’t know what it was, but she later replaced it with her own medicine.”
When I heard this, a chill ran down my spine.
This woman had been plotting against me all this time, and she knew I also had the intention to poison Gu Yuanzhou?
She set a trap to kill with a borrowed knife.
She plotted meticulously, ruthlessly, and venomously.
Though she had changed the medicine, I had administered it myself.
No wonder on the day of the incident, she called me first to question why I had poisoned Gu Yuanzhou.
Presumably, on that day, she must have recorded the conversation on another phone. If I had admitted it out of guilt when she frightened me, she would have gone to Gu Yuanzhou with the evidence.
Luckily, I was calm at the time, so she didn’t get what she wanted.
“Miss Song, if you expose her to President Gu, she’ll bite back. After all, you administered the drug and you can’t prove that she switched it. More importantly, without any concrete evidence, President Gu will believe her over us based on my word alone.”
Old Ma said with a bitter face.
I had not expected that Old Ma, who had worked for so many years in the company, would have been bought by a youngster like Ye Mengyan.
Reflecting on it now, Ye Mengyan was too cunning.
She managed to put me in a predicament in the blink of an eye. It was now much harder to deal with her than I expected.
“Old Ma, don’t mention this to President Gu for now. I’ll handle it!”
“Alright.”
Old Ma agreed, though without much conviction. Perhaps he had been scared by Ye Mengyan.
After discussing with Old Ma, I began to plan my next move.
I wanted to expose Ye Mengyan’s lies so that she would lose all ground in front of Gu Yuanzhou.
In the evening, I went to see Jiang Jing. Wenya came, and when the three of us met, I shared the information I had learned from Old Ma.
Wenya kept silent for a while after listening.
“This woman is so ruthless, even daring to drug Gu Yuanzhou!”
Jiang Jing pondered for a moment, and said,
“She probably measured the dosage of the drug, making it non-lethal but very dangerous. She planned to frame Ayun!”
Wenya was munching on seeds with a gossiping face.
“I really want to see Gu Yuanzhou’s reaction when he finds out that Ye Mengyan drugged him. How would he feel? He had always treated this woman like a treasure, but she dared to drug him in the end. Is this like digging a hole for yourself? I reckon, Ayun, you shouldn’t expose her either. This woman is so evil, he’ll surely end up dead at her hands eventually.”
I held the milk tea Wenya had bought and remained quiet.
I didn’t care how Gu Yuanzhou would die in the future.
But at least while I’m alive, I want to get justice for myself.
I can’t let Ye Mengyan, who has harmed me, continue to act with impunity.
“Forget it, let’s not talk about this. Jiang Jing, how about you? Did Yu Jiahang come to pick you up?”
Jiang Jing sighed and remained silent.
The one who was most upset was still Wenya.
“She’s been in the hospital for three days, and not a single person from her in-laws’ side has visited. Her mother came to see her yesterday, and when she heard that none of her in-laws had come, she went to the Yu family and had a row with her mother-in-law! This old lady just lay on the couch pretending she was hurt and faking a limp, and she’s still causing a commotion.”
“Er. It seems she’s still waiting for you to compromise, or rather waiting for you to transfer the house under her name. This old lady is really something.”
Wenya spat, and then rolled up her sleeves and said to Jiang Jing,
“Why don’t I beat her up someday, make her truly crippled, and see if she dares to bully anyone again.”
“No, Wenya, don’t be so impulsive! If she wasn’t married, you could do this, but now she just got married and is pregnant, and her relationship with Yu Jiahang hasn’t fallen apart yet. This marriage is still worth working on. How about this, I’ll call Yu Jiahang to come over?”
Jiang Jing is not like me. She has not experienced heartbreaking despair, and she is still full of hope for marriage and love.
Even though she hated her mother-in-law deeply, she probably still hoped for the marriage to continue.
Surely enough, after I spoke, she nodded.
But then, she seemed worried, “If I ask him to come, he doesn’t. Can you make him come?”
“I can!”
“Okay then, I’ll give you his number!”
Jiang Jing gave me the number.
I went to Ding Yinuo’s office to borrow his laptop.
Actually, I don’t know Yu Jiahang well, we’ve only met few times and didn’t talk much.
From Jiang Jing, I learned that Yu Jiahang was a programmer at a big company, responsible for managing the computer network…
“Can I borrow your laptop?”
Ding Yinuo had just finished a surgery.
The office was opened for me, with a bouquet and an exquisite small cake box on the desk.
A cream-filled strawberry cake, it looked good and probably tasted good too.
“Who gave you the cake?”
“Do you want some?”
“It looks pretty good!”
Ding Yinuo opened the box and handed it to me, “If you like it, eat it!”
“Don’t you like cake?”
“I don’t like sweets!”
Since he doesn’t eat it and I was hungry, I helped myself…
He opened the computer for me, “What are you planning to do?”
“I want to teach Jiang Jing’s husband a lesson!”
Ding Yinuo squinted at me,
“Are you sure you can do it? He is computer science graduate, a professional, not a layman. Are you sure?”
