At this time, Zheng Ying delivered the final blow.
"You don't have to admit it, but you have to think this through. There are still many of us alive who know what happened back then."
As she said this, Zheng Ying's sharp gaze landed on Xu Rongda.
Xu Rongda had never seen the gentle and delicate Zheng Ying look at him like this. For a moment, he panicked.
"What, what do you mean?"
Zheng Ying sneered and said to Liu Zhihui.
"You can go and ask around. Ask our former colleagues and our superiors."
There is no such thing as a wall that is completely airtight.
Once you tear a hole in a thing, there is no turning back.
She did not believe that Liu Zhihui would be able to resist the urge to ask around.
With that, Liu Zhihui glared hatefully at Xu Rongda.
"I will give you one last chance. Have you or haven't you? Don't force me to not give you any face."
Xu Rongda did not dare to answer. He was afraid that he would lose his comfortable life.
However, things were no longer as simple as just remaining silent.
Damn it, when did Zheng Ying become so ruthless!
Helplessly, Xu Rongda walked towards Liu Zhihui. He bowed and scraped, almost kneeling in front of her to plead.
"Wife, you must believe me. This woman is no good. When she was young, she would go around seducing men. Even now, after getting married, she is still not satisfied. She must have tried to seduce me but failed and now she is trying to frame me!"
"You are so shameless." Zheng Ying said in disgust.
She stared at Liu Zhihui. "I have said all that I need to say. Director Liu is so smart. Naturally, you can think of why he suddenly came to my door and why he got beaten up. If Director Liu wants to find out the truth, then go and ask people."
"Wife, we have been together for so many years. Don't you trust me?"
Xu Rongda was still shamelessly defending himself. He was even trying to morally coerce her.
However, Liu Zhihui had lived for so many years. How could she be so easily deceived by Xu Rongda's words?
Even if Liu Zhihui was still hesitating, the person beside her was not so quiet.
"Yo, Director Xu is trying to play the emotional card."
The man who had been silent beside Liu Zhihui suddenly spoke.
"I thought that Director Xu did not need to go to so much trouble to stop her. The reason why you are so angry is because you feel that you have been wronged. However, Director Liu is also trying to clear your name. You should just let Director Liu check. When the time comes, the truth will be revealed. Director Liu will also be able to clear your name."
Although these words were all spoken in Xu Rongda's interest, in fact, it was as though he was pushing Xu Rongda onto a fire stage.
He could not go up, nor could he go down.
Skylark listened at the door and almost burst out laughing.
It was so "tea-like".
If it was a woman, how many straight men would be infatuated with her?
Xu Rongda's face was red with anger. It was only after a long while that he said.
"What does it matter to you? You are just someone who works under my wife. You dare to interfere in our family matters."
The man smiled and did not say anything. However, he took a step closer to Liu Zhihui.
Xu Rongda stared with wide eyes. The look in his eyes when he looked at Liu Zhihui and the man was filled with confusion and a strong sense of inquiry.
Here it comes!
Skylark was extremely excited. She was just thinking of how to get Xu Rongda to know about this matter, but this man had sent himself to her on a silver platter.
However, this fire was not hot enough. It needed to be stoked.
Skylark took a step into the room.
"Why is Uncle Xu so angry? Actually, I think that this big brother is right. Furthermore, since he is someone close to Director Liu, there is nothing wrong with asking about such a matter."
Skylark's words seemed to have said everything, but also seemed to have said nothing.
However, as the person involved, they all knew what was going on.
Liu Zhihui was also a little surprised for a moment. After all, it was not something that could be brought to light. It was truly embarrassing to be exposed like this.
She turned her head to look at Skylark. There was some hatred in her eyes, as though she was blaming Skylark for talking too much.
Skylark tilted her head and smiled innocently at Liu Zhihui.
Did she say something wrong?
It seemed to be a little inappropriate.
However, she was just a child. How could a child have any bad intentions?
Liu Zhihui stared at Skylark for a long time. In the end, she did not say anything.
On the other hand, Xu Rongda's expression was already extremely wonderful.
If he had only suspected before, then Skylark's words had practically confirmed this matter.
Xu Rongda's face turned green, like a juicy spinach.
However, he did not dare to say anything. This was because he truly did not have any status at home.
Furthermore, his matter was only separated by a layer of window paper. However, there was no "definitive evidence" for Liu Zhihui's matter.
Therefore, Xu Rongda's best option now was to say nothing.
Ji Chengxuan had already quietly blocked Skylark behind him, preventing Liu Zhihui from seeing her.
Secretly, Ji Chengxuan whispered a thank you to Skylark.
"What are you thanking me for?" Skylark smiled at Ji Chengxuan.
"If you are really thanking me, then give us an extra ten percent profit when we do business together in the future. I am not doing all of this out of kindness to save everyone."
Ji Chengxuan: ...
He knew that Skylark had truly wanted to help him, which was why she had risked being hated to say these things.
However, why was this child so unromantic?
He was so touched that he wanted to cry, but Skylark...
Forget it, he should not have had such high hopes.
Here, Xu Rongda had already been entangled with Liu Zhihui for a while.
Neither of them said anything. They both had their own hidden agendas.
The secretary coughed lightly and spoke.
"Director Liu, how do you think we should resolve this matter?"
"What else is there to resolve?"
Liu Zhihui said almost with gritted teeth.
She glared hatefully at Xu Rongda. "Why aren't you leaving? Aren't you ashamed?"
Things had developed to this point. The root of the problem had already shifted from the Ji family to their own family. It was impossible for them to cause trouble for Old Doctor Ji.
Xu Rongda helplessly lowered his head and followed behind Liu Zhihui.
As he passed by Zheng Ying, Xu Rongda glared hatefully at her.
He was of course unwilling, but at this moment, he was already in a difficult situation. He probably would not come looking for trouble for their family in the future.
"Thank goodness. It is finally over." The secretary heaved a sigh of relief. "That's good. This matter has been resolved perfectly. Don't think about it anymore. Old Ji, you are usually so calm. Why did you... sigh. Next time when something like this happens, remember to call me. No matter what, the village will stand up for you."
Old Doctor Ji also heaved a long sigh of relief. He smiled and offered the secretary a cigarette.
"Thank you. We disturbed your rest in the middle of the night."
"Hey, what are you saying."
Zheng Ying walked towards Skylark and slowly touched her head.
"Girl, thank you."
