Although many people had guessed that the person who had attacked Pan Jiajia that day was Yu Cheng, there had never been any solid evidence.
If Yu Cheng refused to admit it, there would be nothing that anyone would be able to do to him.
But now, this apology statement was equivalent to admitting to everyone that the person was Yu Cheng!
From now on, any mention of this young master from the Yu family would inevitably bring up this piece of exciting history.
The members of the Yu family understood this, but they had still done it anyway.
This was because they had turned Yu Cheng into Pan Jiajia’s boyfriend.
The unspoken rules of sexual violence against another and the conflict between a couple who were boyfriend and girlfriend were two completely different concepts.
The characterization of the matter was considered differently due to the difference in their relationship.
The latter sounded much better than the previous one.
In other words, it would be easier to appease the public’s anger in this way.
[ So, this matter is between lovers? It’s just a lover’s quarrel then. Just forget it. ]
[ Where is there a couple that does not fight? ]
[ He was probably just behaving impulsively and didn’t mean it. Why was it necessary to call the police? Was there really a need for that?
The Yu family had clearly taken this into account before issuing such a statement.
Yu Cheng’s name had indeed been tainted, but it did not seem to be that serious.
This statement was obviously more beneficial to him and the entire Yu family, especially in the social environment of the country.
However, Yu Yu had lost the company, YU, that she had created just because of Yu Cheng. How could she not hold a grudge against him?
Yet, in the end, she had simply sacrificed YU completely just to confirm that Yu Cheng had been the one who had attacked Pan Jiajia.
In this way, this problem might be able to be solved for Yu Cheng more smoothly, although his reputation would still be tarnished.
Anyone who talked about him would no longer be able to avoid this part.
No matter how much affection Grandfather Yu had for him, he still had to maintain his reputation.
From this perspective, Yu Yu was not at a disadvantage.
Shen Li put away her phone and the corners of her lips curled up.
In the eyes of most people, Yu Yu was doing this just to cover for Yu Cheng by sacrificing all her hard work with nothing to gain.
This pair of Yu siblings seemed to love each other so much. How could anyone not feel moved by that?
…
After the apology was announced, the situation gradually changed.
Yu Cheng finally flew out of Bai City the next day and returned to Haicheng to receive related investigations.
As for Yu Yu, she continued to stay behind. Of course, this had nothing to do with the Bai City Fashion Week. She still had to take care of Pan Jiajia.
In the eyes of everyone, this matter was considered to have gradually returned to normal.
The next step would be to wait for the police investigation report and the matter to be dealt with normally.
At this point, the furor had finally subsided.
…
It was the eighth day of the Bai City Fashion Week.
G&S’s men’s fashion show was held at 10 am that day.
By 9 am, Shen Li had dressed in a white shirt, black jeans, and a black bag which made her look taller and even more beautiful.
Shen Zhijin was waiting in the living room to send her to the show.
“Dad, I’m ready. Shall we go?”
Shen Zhijin took the car keys and was about to walk out when he heard the doorbell ring.
Who would come here so early…?
While Shen Li was pondering this, Shen Zhijin had already opened the door.
An elegant figure was standing outside the door.
Sure enough, it was indeed Lu Huaiyu.
Coincidentally, he was also wearing a white shirt today with a black suit jacket slung over his arm, making him look even more aloof and noble.
“Teacher Shen.”
Lu Huaiyu greeted Shen Zhijin first, before looking at Shen Li, who was behind him.
“Ah Li.”
Shen Li walked forward and asked curiously, “Second Brother, why are you here?”
Had they not agreed that they would meet directly at the show venue?
Lu Huaiyu smiled and said, “I thought that Teacher Shen would be there today, so I specially came over.”
Shen Li blinked.
“Oh? My dad isn’t going. He has other work arrangements today.”
She had mentioned the show to Shen Zhijin before, but since it was not her show, he was not interested in going.
Lu Huaiyu seemed a little surprised.
“Oh? Teacher Shen, you’re not going?”
Shen Zhijin nodded lightly.
Just then, another person walked over.
“Brother-in-law, are you really not going?”
It was Gu Tinglan. He was here too?
Shen Li’s gaze swept over the two of them.
“Little Uncle.. did you both come together?”
Gu Tinglan’s smile was gentle.
“Yes. Since I’m going to the show today too, I happened to be going the same way as Lu Er.”
Shen Li was even more surprised:
“Little Uncle is going too?”
Gu Tinglan did not seem to be the type to be very enthusiastic about these things, did he?
“Yes, I happened to have some free time today.”
As Gu Tinglan spoke, he smiled at Shen Zhijin.
“Brother-in-law, I heard that the designs for the menswear series in today’s show are quite avant-garde and have a unique style. It should be quite interesting. Are you really not going?”
Shen Li’s eyebrows suddenly jumped.
Why did these words… sound so wrong?
Shen Zhijin very clearly noticed something as well and did not reply for a moment.
Gu Tinglan added gently, “The main designer for this show is Edmund. However, it seems that George consulted Ah Li for her opinion before, so to a certain extent, this show and Ah Li should also be considered–”
Shen Li immediately said, “No!”
Probably because this shout was too sudden, Shen Zhijin looked at her.
Shen Li said indignantly, “I have nothing to do with this show! I’m only going over today out of respect to G&S! I don’t even know what their theme is!”
Lu Huaiyu smiled gently.
“It’s okay. We’ll know everything when we get to the show.”
Shen Li was stunned into silence.
After a while, Shen Zhijin said, “I’ll go with you.”
Shen Li was dumbfounded.
Only then did she realize what was going on. She struggled to say, “Dad, but the location of the show has already been arranged. Besides, don’t you still have work to do…”
Gu Tinglan quickly interjected.
“Don’t worry about this, Ah Li. Sister-in-law has specifically talked to them. We can go there directly.”
Shen Zhijin took out his phone.
“I’ll inform the people at work that I won’t be going this morning.”
Shen Li clutched her small bag tightly.
Lu Huaiyu looked at his watch.
“Then, Teacher Shen, Ah Li, shall we… go?”
..
This showcase was also being held at the Sigri Museum.
Shen Li arrived with the others, and smoothly entered the venue before sitting down.
Lin Fengmian had already arrived.
When he saw the small group who was accompanying Shen Li, he was stunned at first. However, he then seemed to be quite happy as he greeted each of them.
It was then that Shen Li found that Lu Huaiyu was on her left, while Lin Fengmian was on her right.
Gu Tinglan was behind her on her left, and Shen Zhijin was behind her on her right.
Shen Li obediently sat in her seat, but for some reason, she was finding it a little hard to breathe.
It was as if she was feeling an invisible pressure coming at her from all directions.
The pressure reached its peak the moment the opening model appeared.
The tall and perfect male model walked along the runway with a cold and aloof face.
As he approached, the beautiful lines of the sides and V-cut of his abdominal muscles that were hidden under the hard fabric were also faintly discernible.
After only taking a glance, Shen Li’s eyelids twitched slightly.
Very good.
It seemed that she would be finished today.
