“…There must be a misunderstanding.” Shen Jingyan knew that with Ye Wangchuan’s appearance, he definitely had no chance of winning.
His only chance of winning was dependent on Qiao Nian’s tie with the Qiao family, even though he knew that the familial ties he had high hopes for had been mostly ruined by them.
“Nian Nian, listen to me…”
Compared to Shen Jingyan, Ye Wangchuan was much more calm and composed. He was even looking at him lazily, but it did not affect his noble aura.
What kind of person was Beijing’s Master Wang? He was proficient in all the tricks in the upper circles. When Shen Jingyan raised his eyebrows, Ye Wangchuan knew what he wanted to do next. Not giving a chance, he said casually, “Boss Shen said that this is a misunderstanding. Does this mean that the thread slandering Qiao Nian was not posted by Qiao Chen? Did you do it, then?”
Now that the matter concerned himself, Shen Jingyan’s eyes suddenly darkened. “How could it be me?!”
Ye Wangchuan seemed to have expected this reaction. He raised his eyes, which were extremely dark and bottomless. “There’s only one outcome to today’s matter. The post has been restored and the IP address has been found. It comes from the Shen Residence. If Qiao Chen doesn’t go to jail, only you will be able to replace her.”
He even smiled slightly as he spoke, the arc of his thin lips quite casual.
However, Shen Jingyan was so shocked by his words that the veins on his forehead bulged. Ye Wangchuan was clearly telling him to choose between them. He subconsciously clenched his fists by his sides and turned to Qiao Nian, trying to attack her again. “Nian Nian…”
He had just called her name when the girl raised her exquisite eyebrows, her eyes containing a ferocious beast. Shen Jingyan was shocked when he met her gaze.
“I told you, Qiao Chen has crossed my bottom line. She must go to jail!”
“…” Shen Jingyan’s heart sank.
However, Qiao Nian didn’t look at him nor give him face. She said simply, “I’ll hand this case to the police.”
…
Many people talking about Qiao Nian online.
The trending searches had already been removed.
However, the Internet was a public platform. The trending searches could be removed, but it couldn’t stop the curious discussions of everyone.
“I heard that this year’s college entrance examination top scorer was kidnapped when he was 11 years old. How pitiful!”
“An 11-year-old girl was kidnapped for so long before coming back. I don’t know what she has experienced to be able to score so well in the college entrance examination. If it were me, I would have collapsed long ago.”
Most of the voices on the Internet were ‘sympathetic’, but these seemingly righteous people emphasized the words ‘kidnapped’ in every message they sent.
It was as if they couldn’t show how kind they were if they didn’t emphasize her tragic fate.
…
Rhine Apartment.
Ye Wangchuan’s phone buzzed non-stop.
He still had his phone by his side, but he did not look at it.
Bringing a cup of tea, Gu San saw that he had placed his leg on the coffee table. He was biting a cigarette and had already lit it.
Was he smoking?
Gu San was shocked. He immediately reacted and guessed why Ye Wangchuan was smoking. He bent down and placed the black tea on the table in front of the man. He frowned and looked up at the quiet second floor. Then, he lowered his head and whispered, “Master Wang, you can actually ask Miss Qiao about the kidnapping a few years ago. I don’t think Miss Qiao’s reaction today was conflicted. Miss Qiao might tell you if you ask.”
