Chapter 212 This is outrageous!

"Yes, something is indeed wrong, Brother Xi. Do you remember when I encountered human traffickers on the street?"

Gu Jianing didn't want to directly mention Li Shuyao's name.

It wasn't appropriate for him to directly reveal his suspicion that Li Shuyao was an enemy agent.

Therefore, the only way to remind and hint at Sheng Zexi was through other means.

"I remember, of course I remember..."

When that matter was mentioned, Sheng Zexi pursed his lips.

The human trafficker was caught, but there were still other human traffickers involved, though no one knows who they are.

However, he had discussed it with Ningning before, and Ningning suspected it was Li Shuyao.

Gu Jianing: Just remember.

"Do you still remember the wonderful performances by the cultural troupe during the Spring Festival, both the opening and closing acts?" Gu Jianing asked again.

Sheng Zexi: ?

The sudden change of topic startled Sheng Zexi, but he quickly recovered.

The grand finale, followed by a spectacular opening performance?

This is referring to Li Shuyao.

Both of Gu Jianing's sentences were directed at Li Shuyao.

Could it be that Li Shuyao did something to hurt Ningning?
Upon thinking of this, Sheng Zexi's face darkened.

But then came the reminder from Gu Jianing on the other end of the phone.

Sheng Zexi immediately realized what was happening.

He and Ningning had previously discussed at home how to remind each other if there were anything they couldn't say on the phone.

And now, Gu Jianing is reminding him.

Recalling their previous conversations, and now Ningning's reminder, it all comes down to...

Li Shuyao is an enemy agent!

Realizing this, Sheng Zexi immediately became restless.

At the same time, something that had been shrouded in mist in my mind suddenly broke through and became clear.

Yes, it's very likely that Li Shuyao leaked the information about his mission.

Furthermore, it also explains why the person behind the scenes has remained elusive.

Because Li Shuyao is a member of the Li family, this identity provides a natural layer of protection, so no one will doubt her.

But sometimes, the more impossible something seems, the more likely it is to happen.

Sheng Zexi also understood why Ningning hadn't said it directly on the phone, but had instead hinted at it.

This is definitely not something that should be discussed over the phone.

"Brother Xi, what should I do now?"

Sheng Zexi thought for a moment. If he were in Beijing, this matter would be easier to handle.

But he is no longer here.

Moreover, this is something that ordinary people cannot solve.

To be honest, Sheng Zexi didn't doubt what Gu Jianing said.

Perhaps it was Gu Jianing's mysterious methods that made Sheng Zexi believe in Gu Jianing's judgment.

Since she said that Li Shuyao was an enemy agent, then she must have sufficient evidence.

After thinking for a moment, Sheng Zexi said, "Ningning, you wait at home. I'll call Zhenrong first and ask him to come find you right away."

"Tell him what happened, and he'll know what to do."

Tomorrow, Ningning will be taking the train back to the Northwest Military Region, so time is a bit tight.

Sheng Zexi is not currently in Beijing. In Beijing, the only person he can trust and who can take on this responsibility is Hua Zhenrong.

"okay, I get it."

So, after hanging up the phone with Gu Jianing, Sheng Zexi immediately called the Hua family to find Hua Zhenrong.

"Why are you calling me now? Is it because of Li Tingxuan, which we talked about last time?" Hua Zhenrong asked jokingly when he received the call.

“No, Zhenrong, do you have time now? Why don’t you go to the Sang family? Ningning has something very important to tell you.”

Hua Zhenrong sensed the seriousness in Sheng Zexi's tone and immediately dropped his teasing attitude. He asked, "Is it urgent? Is it very serious?"

"Correct."

"Okay, I'll drive there right now."

Trusting Sheng Zexi, Hua Zhenrong didn't ask any further questions and immediately agreed.

Hua Zhenrong didn't ask what it was about.

You'll know when you meet Gu Jianing.

So, after hanging up the phone, Hua Zhenrong immediately drove out of the compound.

"Hey, Zhenrong, it's almost dinner time, where are you going?" Madam Hua asked when she saw him.

"Mom, you guys eat first. I have something very important to do and I have to go to the Sang family right now."

"Can't we eat first before going?"

"Mom, it's okay, I'm not very hungry. Could you get me a steamed bun?"

"Row."

So, Hua Zhenrong ate a steamed bun with one hand and drove towards the Sang family with the other.

Ten minutes after Gu Jianing hung up the phone with Sheng Zexi, Hua Zhenrong arrived at the Sang family home.

Grandpa and Grandma Sang were somewhat surprised to see Hua Zhenrong arrive.

When she heard that Hua Zhenrong had come to see Gu Jianing about something very important, she didn't immediately make room for the two of them.

“Sister-in-law, Zexi just told me to come over quickly, saying it was something very important, but he didn’t say what it was.”

"Now, can you tell me about it?"

"Ah."

Gu Jianing immediately made no attempt to conceal her suspicions and told them that she suspected Li Shuyao was an enemy agent.

"Impossible! How could Li Shuyao be an enemy agent!" This was Hua Zhenrong's first reaction.

“Sister-in-law, Li Shuyao is a member of the Li family, and she is Old Master Li’s granddaughter. How could this be?”

If Li Shuyao really were an enemy spy, she would still be lurking right under the noses of both Grandpa Li and Li Tingxuan.

The two of them remained unaware.

That would be utterly absurd.

The key is……

Why!

Why did Li Shuyao become an enemy agent?
She's a member of the Li family, this shouldn't be happening.

“Sister-in-law, it’s not that I don’t believe you, but this matter is somewhat unbelievable. Can you tell me where you came to this conclusion?” Hua Zhenrong looked intently at Gu Jianing.

Gu Jianing also knew that if she said this rashly, perhaps no one except Sheng Zexi would believe her.

However, the fact remains that Li Shuyao is an enemy agent.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Jianing said, "Li Shuyao has a cat."

"I have a basic understanding of interpreting animal body language."

"It was that cat that told me Li Shuyao was an enemy agent!"

Hua Zhenrong was shocked!

My sister-in-law actually determined Li Shuyao was a spy from a cat?!
To be honest, if these words hadn't come from Gu Jianing's mouth, he would have gotten to know Gu Jianing's character quite well over the past month.

He almost felt that Gu Jianing was playing a trick on him.

Moreover, does the ability to interpret animal body language really exist?
Can enemy agents be identified from a cat's body language?

This is even more baffling.

After a moment of shock, Hua Zhenrong pondered for a while and then made a decision. "Here's what we'll do, sister-in-law. I'll tell my dad about this and have him secretly send someone to investigate and monitor Li Shuyao."

"Okay, I'll trouble you then."

Gu Jianing didn't know if Hua Zhenrong could find out who Li Shuyao was, but if Li Shuyao really was an enemy agent, she would definitely leave some clues.

"Okay, that's settled then. I'll go back and discuss it with my dad right away."

Hua Zhenrong did not linger and soon left the Sang family.

On the way, he muttered to himself, if Li Shuyao wasn't an enemy agent, that would be fine, but if she really was, then the Li family and Old Master Li were probably in for a good show.
