Hello, Heir Chapter 46 - Mr. Si Is Busy and Can't Take the Call

Zhuang Nainai was not born into a wealthy family and had not mastered the art of observation and hiding her emotions like they had. Her minute changes in expressions were easily caught by Gu Xingshan.

A glint flashed past Gu Xingshan’s eyes as she pa.s.sed her the phone with a smile. “Sister, call him now! Show our brother just how he has wronged you!”

Make the call now?

Zhuang Nainai balled her hand into a fist. “Mr. Si must be busy now, we shouldn’t disturb him.”

Gu Xingshan laughed and retorted, “No one else would dare to disturb him, but you are special!”

Zhuang Nainai caught Gu Deshou’s suspicious look.

Her heart sank.

Gu Xinghao narrowed his eyes and added in a casual yet pressuring tone, “You must be hiding something if you refuse! Are you really the one who released the fake wedding news? If that’s the case, you are putting us in great jeopardy! Mr. Si hates to be used by others.”

Gu Deshou’s expression changed instantly.

He did not want to press the matter immediately after the press release because Zhuang Nainai was a girl and he thought it better for Mr. Si to take the initiative in taking care of the press. But now…

The Imperial Group had not yet made any response to the related news!

He initially a.s.sumed that Mr. Si was in the know and therefore did not deny anything. But now that he mull it over again, how could a scandal be publicized if Mr. Si was really planning on getting married?

The Imperial Group’s representative would definitely have made the announcement first!

Gu Deshou looked to Zhuang Nainai and put on a fake smile. “Qingyan, Mr. Si may be busy, but he must be able to spare some time for his fiancee! Try to make a call.”

His words left her with no choice.

Zhuang Nainai lowered her head and narrowed her eyes.

This family could really play the game!

However, Mother was in their hands, and she did look guilty. The call must be made.

Zhuang Nainai picked up her phone and found Si Zhengting’s number. She hesitated for a second before dialling.

The call was connected quickly. Zhuang Nainai’s heart shuddered as the phone rang and she immediately hung up.

Her fingers were shaking uncontrollably.

She swallowed hard and took a deep breath to calm her nerves. The Gu’s were still looking at her with antic.i.p.ation.

Zhuang Nainai looked towards them calmly and said, “He’s not picking up, he’s probably still in a meeting.”

“I doubt it, Sister. It’s already 7. Even if Mr. Si had to work overtime, the shareholders would not be holding a meeting at his hour. Are you sure that was Mr. Si on the phone just now?” Gu Xinghao accused and s.n.a.t.c.hed the phone from her hands.

What a rascal!

Where were his manners! How could he just s.n.a.t.c.h away her phone like that?

Zhuang Nainai narrowed her eyes.

d.a.m.n it!

Did they really think they could step all over her?

She gave in to Gu Deshou’s demands over Si Zhengting because of her mother. Who was Gu Xinghao to do this to her?

Zhuang Nainai approached him in two big strides and reached for his wrist. She gave a sharp twist and his body jerked from the wrist. The phone landed on Zhuang Nainai’s hands again.

Zhuang Nainai snorted and berated, “Gu Xinghao, is it? I grew up in a poor family, but I learned to respect my elders. You, however, don’t seem to know how to do it even though you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth.”
