Her sharp stiletto shoes hit against the floor as she stepped out of the elevator.

She had gone to Song Yu’s office, but she was told that Song Yu was not back from lunch yet. She wanted to come downstairs to stop her, and by chance, she had succeeded.

Song Yu looked away and walked ahead without moving her gaze. She walked past Mu Sisi as she did not plan to greet her at all.

Mu Sisi grabbed Song Yu by her arm and said, “You didn’t even greet me, do you not have any manners?”

Song Yu glanced at the hand that grabbed her arm and looked up in annoyance before she said, “I will greet my friends or people with manners. You are not my friend, nor do you have any manners. I don’t even want to be associated with you. Why should I greet you?”

Mu Sisi laughed as she let go of Song Yu’s arm. “That’s true. I also wished that you didn’t exist. But I’m here to see you, so let’s talk.”

Song Yu realized that Mu Sisi’s eyes were red like she had been crying.

“I have nothing to say to you,” Song Yu said coldly as she walked toward the lift.

“What if I told you that I know the real reason your family went bankrupt?” Mu Sisi said quickly behind her back.

Song Yu stopped and turned around slowly. She saw Mu Sisi’s arrogant face.

Song Yu scoffed coldly and walked toward her. Even though she wore flats due to her pregnancy, she was still on eye-level with the heels-clad Mu Sisi.

“What if I told you that I know it too?” Song Yu mocked her softly.

Mu Sisi clearly misunderstood the situation. She thought that she knew all about the situation and laughed as she said, “I know you thought that the Song family went bankrupt after they were acquired, but the truth is more complicated than that. It’s not what you think it is.”

“What do you think I know?” Song Yu laughed. Mu Sisi’s arrogance was hilarious.

She whipped out her phone and looked at the time as she said, “Since you wanted to talk, let’s talk.”

She walked ahead after she finished her sentence.

Mu Sisi smirked. She could not wait to see Song Yu’s defeated face.

Song Yu did not walk far. She walked straight to the café in the building and sat down in a corner.

Mu Sisi followed her and sat down as well. The waiter came over, and Mu Sisi ordered a cup of caramel macchiato, but Song Yu did not order anything.

“You don’t have to pretend to be polite with me. If you feel uneasy about ordering a drink, you can pay for it yourself,” Mu Sisi thought Song Yu did not want to have a drink with her and wanted to appear generous about it.

“I don’t have to do that because what I have to say is very simple. I won’t be here long, I’ll be gone before they serve the drinks,” Song Yu said coldly and went silent as she saw the waiter walked over with two glasses of lemon-infused water.

After the waiter left, Song Yu saw Mu Sisi’s smirk. It was as if she was laughing at her for knowing nothing; as if she was a fool.

“I’m afraid that you won’t have the strength to stand up in a while, let alone to leave,” Mu Sisi said sarcastically as she looked at Song Yu arrogantly. She looked down to pull a file out of her bag and said, “Since you’re this confident, I’ll just have to wait and see.”

Song Yu smiled briefly and stayed silent.

Based on what Mu Sisi had said, it was as if she knew the Song family went bankrupt because of Qi Chengzhi. However, she would not admit it if Mu Sisi did not say anything about that. If she admitted to the truth while Mu Sisi lied about the so-called truth, that would mean that she voluntarily told Mu Sisi the truth.

“Look at this,” Mu Sisi tossed the file onto the table.

Song Yu picked it up casually and pulled at the documents inside. She already knew who gave it to her after one glance.

It was the same one Jian Yi gave her.

“Jian Yi gave this to you?” Song Yu put the documents back in the file and tossed it back onto the table.

Mu Sisi did not expect Song Yu to be that calm. It was as if it was a small matter.

Apart from that, how did she know it was from Jian Yi?

Mu Sisi pretended to be calm and said, “You don’t need to know who it came from, as it’s real anyway.”

Song Yu pursed her lips and said, “You came all the way here to tell me about this?”

Mu Sisi could not hold it in anymore. She widened her eyes and said, “Song Yu, look closer at the papers. Did this shocking news make you dumber? Brother Chengzhi planned the bankruptcy of your family; he’s supposed to be your enemy.”

“I know. I knew it from the start. I knew about this before I married him, someone had already told me about this,” Song Yu said with a relaxed tone.

Mu Sisi could not believe it. She stared at Song Yu before she asked, “What kind of response is this?”

“Do you still not get it? I’m telling you that I already knew that my family went bankrupt because of Chengzhi. However, I don’t care, and I don’t hate him. I was not even angry at him. Even after I found out about this, I still decided to get a marriage certificate with him. I’m the one who suggested the certificate. Do you think I feel defeated when I’ve made such decisions?”

“You…” Mu Sisi could not believe it. It was impossible for Song Yu not to hate Qi Chengzhi unless she had mental issues. If an ordinary person went through such things, they would have so much hate in them.

“It’s impossible. Stop pretending, Song Yu. I will admit that you have a high level of tolerance, and you look calm. I can’t beat you on that. However, do you think that you can lie to me about this? If you already knew about this, why did Brother Chengzhi give such a huge reaction?” Mu Sisi thought it was still a possibility after she gave it some more thoughts.

Song Yu’s expression darkened. She stared at Mu Sisi angrily and asked, “You went to see Chengzhi again?”

“Yes, I told him that I knew everything. I told him that I’m going to tell you about this too, and he started to get nervous. I’ve never seen him this nervous, not even when he was at his worst and could not find any business for the new company in the States. He never acted this way. He was scared that you would find out, but if you already knew about it, how could he be that nervous?” Mu Sisi laughed. “Song Yu, stop pretending, your face changed. Do you think you can still lie to me?”
