Chapter 578: Since When Have I Asked for Shares? (7)

As soon as those words escaped her mouth, everyone was thoroughly surprised. They had initially thought that Li Yufeng would push all the blame to Zhuang Nainai and accuse Zhuang Nainai of instructing her to do so!

However, Zhuang Nainai soon understood what she was planning.

Li Yufeng looked up and fixed her gaze on Ding Mengya. “Madam Ding, I did ask you for shares. But when did you hear me say that Qingyan asked me to do so?”

Ding Mengya was taken aback.

Li Yufeng then looked at Si Zhengting. “Mr. Si, my Qingyan really likes you wholeheartedly. She agreed to marry you only because she likes you so much. So, why would she even ask shares from you? As her mother, I always want the best for her. After my Qingyan married you, she has suffered a lot. She is even pregnant now and lacks a sense of security, so I made such a suggestion.”

“This is definitely not Qingyan’s idea, so please don’t misunderstand her.”

Li Yufeng insisted that this was not Zhuang Nainai’s idea. However, her anxious and protective behavior could easily lead one to get the wrong idea and believe that she was acting like this to defend her own daughter.

Zhuang Nainai glanced at Si Zhengting, only to see his aloof expression. It seemed like he was buying Li Yufeng’s instigation.

Subconsciously, she heaved a sigh of relief. She suddenly felt that she and Si Zhengting were really becoming more harmonious and trusting toward each other more after going through so much.

Then, Zhuang Nainai looked at Ding Mengya, only to see her frowning as she sized her and Li Yufeng up with a skeptical gaze. It was obvious that she did not trust Li Yufeng and her.

Zhuang Nainai frowned. If this was the case, this matter would become more complicated.

The crucial thing was that Gu Xingshan was the only other person present when the three of them were talking. But would Gu Xingshan help to vindicate her?

While she was contemplating this, Li Yufeng stood up and bowed to Ding Mengya. “I’m sorry for causing so much trouble. Since all of you seem unwilling, it’s my fault for being a busybody. But let’s set some things straight while everyone’s present. Madam Ding, you are also a woman, so you would naturally understand the lack of security Qingyan feels deep down. That’s why I suggested giving her a portion of the shares because that’s the only factor that can make her feel secure.”

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Nainai shot a stern gaze. She first took all the blame, but now she was saying that Zhuang Nainai lacked security.

How would Li Yufeng know that she felt insecure?

Those who don’t know would assume that she told Li Yufeng that!

This Li Yufeng’s instigation was really subtle!

Zhuang Nainai took a deep breath. “I’m sorry, but I feel very secure.”

She stood up and proclaimed her stand, “I have said this before. Firstly, I trust Si Zhengting. Secondly, even if he really does something wrong to me in the future, I don’t want a single cent from the Si family. My limbs are all intact, I can support myself.”

As soon as she said this, Li Yufeng looked at her. She had wanted to say something but remained silent. Moments later, she looked at Si Zhengting. “Right, right. Qingyan, you did mention this to me.”

However, she clearly looked like she was saying that just for show to go along with her words.

The more she behaved like this, the more Ding Mengya, who initially did not really suspect Zhuang Nainai, suspected her.

Just when Zhuang Nainai was about to continue speaking, a voice could be heard from the door. “Mother, didn’t you come here just this afternoon? Sister has already said that she doesn’t want the shares. Why are you still meddling with another family’s matter?!”

Gu Xinghao had walked in after parking the car. Upon hearing the conversation, he’d frowned and spoken that without a care in the world. His straightforward words immediately exposed Li Yufeng!

Li Yufeng: “...!!”
