Chapter 457

457 Wu Ni Was Caught

It was so hard for her to apply for 50 million yuan.

This group of people could easily apply for a project worth hundreds of millions of yuan.

Heh!

Shi Xi bit on a strawberry and was extremely unconvinced.

!!

“In your dreams.” Shi Xu calmly rejected Shi Chen’s proposal.

“According to the procedure, I will put forward a proposal. The Board of Directors will discuss it on Monday to decide whether or not to allocate funds.” Shi Chen smiled confidently.

After that, Father Shi joined the discussion as well. The few men started discussing work matters.

Meanwhile, Shi Xi returned to her room and discussed the latest progress of the team with Han Chuan.

Han Chuan: “There’s bad news.”

Shi Xi asked, “What’s wrong?”

Han Chuan: “Lou Ruicong went skiing and broke his hand.”

Shi Xi: ???

Han chuan said, “The doctor said that the fall this time is quite serious. He can’t move around for three months.”

“In other words, he won’t be able to participate in the movie?” Shi Xi asked.

“If the movie starts shooting in three months, he still has a chance,” Han Chuan said tactfully.

Shi Xi said, “Then let’s look for someone else.”

Three months. Even the daylily had turned cold.

Han Chuan sighed.

What a great opportunity.

Lou Ruicong’s hobby was ruined just like that.

“Actually, I think it’s not bad to start filming in half a year.” Han Chuan changed the topic.

“It was only three months ago, and now it’s six months later?” Shi Xi was surprised.

Han Chuan said, “According to the speed of the company’s funding, it’ll be a blessing if we can start filming in six months.”

Shi Xi said, “I’ve told my brother and they’ll speed up the funding next week.”

“It’d be best if it’s faster.”

..

At the hospital.

Wu Ni sneaked into the hospital, changed into a white coat, put on a mask, and pretended to perform ward rounds.

When he arrived at the vegetative patient’s ward, Wu Ni successfully entered.

Closing the ward door, Wu Ni walked to the front of the bed and took out a syringe.

Just as he was about to succeed, a hand grabbed his wrist and put cold handcuffs on him.

“I’m arresting you on suspicion of murder and aiding and abetting robbery. You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court.”

Wu Ni’s eyes widened. He did not expect someone to stare at him in the ward.

He had clearly checked and there was no one guarding the ward!

“I didn’t do it! I’m innocent!”

However, the police were more willing to believe what they saw.

..

Shi Xi soon heard about Wu Ni’s arrest.

“Strange. He has no grudge against Tao Tao. Why would he hire a murderer to harm Tao Tao?” Shi Xi was puzzled.

“Maybe Xu Ziqing instigated it.” Shi Xu was also very concerned about this matter.

Thinking about how Xu Ziqing was driving Wu Ni’s car, Shi Xi understood and said, “I really want to hear Wu Ni’s confession. He must have confessed about Xu Ziqing, right?”

Shi Xu said, “After Wu Ni went in, he didn’t say anything. He just waited for the lawyer to go and protect him.”

What else could he protect?

“Should I go and watch Xu Ziqing?” Shi Xi analyzed, “If I were Xu Ziqing, the first thing I would do now would be to take the money and run away.”

“…”

Shi Xi was right. Xu Ziqing had indeed taken the money and run away.

And the time that Xu Ziqing ran away was faster than everyone had imagined.

After she instigated Wu Ni to kill, she immediately bought a plane ticket and flew abroad.

Shi Corporation, Monday.

At the board meeting, Shi Xu proposed to optimize the allocation system.

It was still the allocation system, but the project funds would be distributed three times instead of squeezing like toothpaste bit by bit.

All the directors agreed readily.

Only the current Director of Finance looked troubled.

“Is there a problem?” Shi Xu asked.

The Director of Finance said worriedly, “I haven’t been able to contact Deputy Director Xu. I think something might have happened.”
