Chapter 406: 0404 Don’t even think about denying it Chapter 406: 0404 Don’t even think about denying it Fu Qiyuan lifted his gaze to look at her without speaking. Su Ran couldn’t help but give a wry smile, walked up to him, and said softly,

“I have something interesting in my hand, could I borrow Assistant Qin from you for a moment?”

Fu Qiyuan gave her another sidelong glance, his tone somber.

“What else?”

Su Ran arched her eyebrows and smiled, “How about you watch a good show?”

Fu Qiyuan swept her with an indifferent glance, took out his phone, and dialed Qin Feng’s number directly.

–

Half an hour later.

The door to Su Ran’s room was indeed knocked on. Judging by the urgency of the sound, the person seemed to be in quite a hurry.

Moreover, there was a lot of commotion outside the door; from the sound of footsteps alone, there were clearly quite a few people.

“Open up, Su Ran, open this door for me right now.”

Outside was Zhao Yiyi’s anxious and angry voice, “I know you’re in the room, don’t hide and stay silent. Open the door quickly.”

Su Ran remained indifferent upon hearing Zhao Yiyi’s voice, as if she had expected it all along.

She looked up, exchanged a glance with Fu Qiyuan, and offered no response.

That’s when another voice came from outside.

“Yiyi, could it be that Su Ran isn’t inside? Why hasn’t she opened the door after all this time?”

Zhao Yiyi huffed coldly, infuriated,

“Somebody saw her return to the hotel, she must be in the room. She thinks she’s beyond reproach this way? You, go, bust the door open.”

Just as the bodyguard stepped forward and prepared to break the door down, it suddenly opened from the inside.

Su Ran, dressed in casual home wear, walked out of the room.

She saw Zhao Yiyi and the throng of people outside and furrowed her brows slightly.

“What do you want?”

Her eyes coldly fixed on Zhao Yiyi and Gu Heng, her tone was icy; the door was left ajar, and her body just blocked the gap, preventing anyone from seeing clearly inside.

Zhao Yiyi narrowed her eyes slightly, a flash of satisfaction crossing her mind, but upon seeing Su Ran, her emotions suddenly became agitated.

“Su Ran, where have you hidden Xinyan? What have you done to her?”

At these words, Su Ran frowned slightly, a look of disdain on her face.

“Are you sick in the head?”

“You’re the sick one, you malicious woman. No matter what, Xinyan is still your sister. Speak up, where have you hidden her?”

“Where she’s gone is none of my business. Are you suggesting that if she gets lost, it’s my fault?”

As she spoke, her face bore a mocking expression as she glanced at Gu Heng beside her, the sneer on her lips deepening.

Gu Heng’s face stiffened, his eyes complex as he looked at Su Ran.

“Xiao Ran, do you truly not know where Xinyan has gone?”

Gu Heng asked, frowning, his voice filled with skepticism and seriousness.

Su Ran let out a cold laugh, “Must I know where she has gone? I’m not her mother; I have neither the duty nor the obligation to keep an eye on her whereabouts. If you want to find someone, go elsewhere and don’t bother me.”

Gu Heng’s face grew darker, and at this moment, Zhao Yiyi again jumped in.

“You’re spouting nonsense. I clearly heard you conspiring with someone to plot against Xinyan. Don’t think you can deny it, Su Ran.”

Su Ran stood leisurely at the door, her demeanor calm and composed, utterly serene.

“Oh? You heard me plotting against Su Xinyan? When was this?”

Her gaze swept over Zhao Yiyi, dripping with scorn, that contemptuous look in her eyes stoking the flames of anger in Zhao Yiyi’s heart.

“Before dinner, when I was passing by the back garden, I heard it with my own ears.”

Su Ran chuckled lightly, “You heard it before dinner?”

Zhao Yiyi, her eyes deep with menacing intent, confirmed, “Indeed.”

“That’s curious then, because during dinner, I saw you with Su Xinyan. Aren’t you guys the best of friends? Knowing that your best friend was going to be plotted against, didn’t you warn her?”

Zhao Yiyi’s face shifted uncertainly, “Who knew your heart could be so cruel to actually harm your own sister, and besides, it wasn’t just me who heard it, others did too.”

Zhao Yiyi, while speaking, cast a nearly imperceptible glance to the side, prompting a stylishly dressed woman to step forward.

“Indeed, I heard it too, and the person you conspired with was none other than Shen Jun, the gang leader from ten years ago.”
