Hello, Heir Chapter 315 - Please Believe Me (13)

His affection for her had morphed into excessive anger in those moments, and his anger had overtaken his senses.

He had chased Gu Xingshan away for Zhuang Nainai. However, he could not help but feel conflicted and sad for her at this moment.

To her, Mother Zhuang would always come first.

But if one day, someone kidnapped him, would she sacrifice Mother Zhuang’s interests in exchange for saving him?

Once he asked himself the question, it was as though they had taken root in his head — they entwined themselves around his heart and he couldn’t shake them off.

Si Zhengting stood up abruptly. Since it had come to this point, he should go and ask her about it.

Perhaps… the answer wasn’t as terrible as he thought it would be?

Just as he stood up, however, he suddenly recalled that she had sent him a “goodnight” text message. This meant that she was sleeping already, right?

Si Zhengting slowly sat down again behind his office desk, his fingers unconsciously placed on top of his mouse. He randomly clicked on something and a black window popped up on his display.

Si Zhengting happened to raise his head, and he suddenly burst out laughing when he saw what was on the screen.

This was the surveillance software that he had installed back when he had been keeping tabs on her text message conversations with Su Jinhui. He had forgotten to turn it off, and it had unexpectedly continued to function all this time.

His mood changed for the better. He decided to open the software and check what it had recorded.

As it was a surveillance software installed on the cell phone, the software would record and display all text conversations, including the QQ conversations between Zhuang Nainai and Lin Xi’er.

The most recent message displayed was the “goodnight” message that Zhuang Nainai had sent Si Zhengting.

The next most recent message was her text conversation with Lin Xi’er over QQ just a day ago!

As Si Zhengting browsed through the conversation, his face grew hot, and he couldn’t help but rub at his forehead. Why did Zhuang Nainai tell Lin Xi’er everything?

But seeing how she was so anxious about her married life with Si Zhengting, it was obvious that she cared for him.

His depressed and gloomy mood lifted suddenly.

The corners of his lips also quirked upward slightly.

He suddenly remembered how she had taken the lead in seducing him in his car yesterday after she got off work. Was this what Lin Xi’er meant by “love, excitement”? If that was the case, it wasn’t a bad idea.

He continued browsing the chat conversations recorded on the software. Zhuang Nainai didn’t have many friends, so she didn’t have that many text conversations on her phone as well.

In the office, she had exchanged some texts with Su Mei on QQ. The next message that appeared chronologically was her goodnight message to him.

So… when he came across a message sent to Gu Deshou, it was especially striking.

He swiped upward on the display, and that message appeared before his eyes!

It was the day when Zhuang Nainai had gone on a stroll in the garden for some exercise. The contents of the message were: “The Imperial Group’s design drafts aren’t ready yet, wait for me for a couple of days longer.”

Si Zhengting’s lips were still upturned in a small smile — it didn’t have the time to disappear before he suddenly froze!

He stared at the text message in an attempt to ensure that he had not been mistaken about it. He wanted to confirm if someone had sent the message to malign her.

But it wasn’t the case.

Just before that message was sent, Gu Deshou had called her a number of times.

She had not picked up his calls. After he had stopped calling her, she had sent him this message in reply.

Si Zhengting suddenly clenched his fists. His instinctual reaction was still “perhaps she had her own reasons for not disclosing this matter?”

He was in a daze when the monitor suddenly lit up again.

Zhuang Nainai had an incoming call. He checked the ident.i.ty of the caller and found that it was… Gu Deshou.

Si Zhengting’s eyes were lowered, and he stared at the display for a while. Finally, he picked up his headphones and placed them on his ears. He heard the call being picked up through the headphones.

Zhuang Nainai had thought that she wouldn’t be able to sleep. She hadn’t expected to fall asleep once she had lain down on the bed.
