Chapter 352

With the help of the bodyguards, Su Ziyue managed to free herself shortly after that. When she went back to her car, she felt frustrated. Gu Hanyan was no longer in Yunzhou City, but she could still bring trouble to her life.

When she drove her car out from the garage, she received an unexpected call. It was a local number, but it looked familiar. Su Ziyue answered the phone. "Hello, may I know who this is?"

"Ziyue, it's me, Uncle Gong. You must be very busy lately. I haven't seen you in a while. Are you free to meet up?" Gong Shuzhe's voice sounded gentle, like how he used to speak to her in the past.

However, after witnessing that he was with Liu Zipei, Su Ziyue had completely lost her pleasant impression of him. She even started to suspect that Gong Shuzhe was involved in the past incident involving Qin Li. Furthermore, she heard Gong Shuzhe and Liu Zipei mentioned Qin Li two years ago.

Qin Muchen had started to investigate Gong Shuzhe. But, since Gong Shuzhe wanted to meet her, she had no reason to decline him. Therefore, she replied with a smile, "Although I'm indeed overloaded with work, I'll still squeeze out some time to meet you if you ask to see me, Uncle Gong."

Su Ziyue and Gong Shuzhe decided to meet at a café nearby. She didn't intend to spend much time with Gong Shuzhe because she still had to go home and prepare meals for Qin Muchen. When Su Ziyue arrived, Gong Shuzhe was already waiting. He wore a suit and his gentle face looked anxious.

Standing at the entrance, Su Ziyue spotted Gong Shuzhe with just a glance. She could even see every detail of his expression. She then strode toward him. "Uncle Gong, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. It took me some time to replace a parking spot outside." While speaking, Su Ziyue sat at his opposite.

The waiter came over to take her order and Su Ziyue replied smilingly, "A cup of Blue Mountain, thank you."

Gong Shuzhe gently looked at Su Ziyue. "It has been a long time since we met. How are you?"

"Not bad. Just keeping busy." Su Ziyue knew that Gong Shuzhe actually had something else to say.

Gong Shuzhe nodded. Then, it seemed like he suddenly thought of something while a curious look appeared on his face. "I heard that you're investigating your father's case."

"Uncle Gong, you're well-informed. However, I'm surprised that you care so much about me. I thought that you only care more about the acquisition of Su Group." Su Ziyue picked up the glass of water in front of her and took a sip while her smile deepened.

As expected, Gong Shuzhe was involved in that incident in the past. If that was the case, what role did he play?

"Feng Group is well-established. I believe that Su Group will have a better development after being acquired. As a businessman, all we ever wanted is for our business to prosper, regardless of whether we manage it ourselves or sell it off," Gong Shuzhe said in an understanding and open-minded way.

Su Ziyue stared at him but couldn't replace any flaws from his expression. However, due to Qin Li's incident, she couldn't trust Gong Shuzhe anymore. In fact, she had to put her guards up against him. “Uncle Gong, you have an impressive mentality. I hope that the other members of the Su Family think the same as you." Su Ziyue picked up the glass of water in front of her and took another sip.

Meanwhile, the emotion in Gong Shuzhe's eyes changed. Noticing that he set his eyes on the glass of water, Su Ziyue suddenly panicked. But it was too late. She felt that her mind was befuddled. Then, she heard Gong Shuzhe ask her from her opposite, "Who do you suspect that killed your father?"

Su Ziyue was feeling out of it and she wasn't aware of what she was saying. However, she subconsciously tried to control it. "The Su Family... and the substitute... My father was innocent..." She saw Gong Shuzhe move his lips. His voice was actually soft but she heard him saying, "Speak clearly..."

"I suspect that it's the Su Family... that..."

"Ziyue! Why are you here?" Right at this moment, a woman's voice interrupted her.

Su Ziyue's befuddled mind cleared up for a second. Turning her head to the side, she saw a girl walking over from the table beside them. After being stunned for a while, she finally came back to her senses and called, "An Xia?"

"Yes, it's me. Why are you here?" An Xia came over. When she noticed Su Ziyue's confused look, she touched her forehead. "Why do you look dazed? What happened?"

"I..." She was talking to Gong Shuzhe just now. Thinking of that, Su Ziyue raised her head to look to her opposite side of the table. However, there was no one sitting there, and Gong Shuzhe was nowhere to be seen.

"Are you okay?" Seeing that Su Ziyue was staring dazedly at the opposite, An Xia couldn't help but ask in perplexity. Besides, Su Ziyue still looked confused now.

"Miss, here's your coffee." Right at this moment, the coffee that Su Ziyue ordered was served.

Su Ziyue rubbed her temple and looked at the waiter while uttering in great difficulty, "Please bring me the bill!"

Noticing that Su Ziyue didn't seem well, An Xia asked her anxiously, "What exactly happened?"

Su Ziyue felt weird too but she couldn't figure out which part did she feel weird. Her mind was still befuddled now. "I was sitting with Uncle Gong here just now..." Su Ziyue muttered to herself. Then, she turned to look at An Xia. "When you came over, did you see anyone sitting at the opposite side of me? He's Gong Shuzhe, Gong Zeyang's father!"

"Huh?"

An Xia looked perplexed. "It wasn't Mr. Qin?" When she walked over here just now, she indeed saw a man sitting at the opposite side of Su Ziyue. She thought that it was Mr. Qin, but it turned out that she was wrong.

Su Ziyue shook her head. She remembered that it was Gong Shuzhe, although now she wasn't so sure about it anymore. Su Ziyue then patted An Xia's shoulder. "It's okay. I need to go. Qin Muchen is waiting for me at home. Let's catch up some other time."

"Huh?"

Before An Xia could say anything else, Su Ziyue had left hurriedly.

Driving home, she was still in a trance. As soon as she parked the car at the villa's entrance, she quickly went in. Lately, Qin Muchen had been staying home. Su Ziyue didn't allow him to go to the company and neither did she allow Nan Chuan to send documents back home. Once she walked in, she heard some noises from the kitchen, so she directly went straight there.

Hearing the footsteps from behind, Qin Muchen knew that Su Ziyue had come home. Therefore, he spoke without looking back, "Give me a few minutes. Food will be ready soon."

Naturally, Su Ziyue was too confused to think about food now. She walked over to Qin Muchen with a stern look. "Qin Muchen, Gong Shuzhe came to meet me just now, so I went to have coffee with him. He asked me some questions, but I neither remember what he asked nor what I said. After that, An Xia suddenly appeared and he was gone!"

Qin Muchen abruptly turned to look at her. "What?"
