Chapter 754: Chapter 754: Your Picture is in the Newspaper Chapter 754: Chapter 754: Your Picture is in the Newspaper After hanging up the phone, Qin Youxuan immediately stormed out of her bedroom, swiftly opening the door and demanding, “Bring me today’s newspaper!”
The bodyguard standing guard at the door was taken aback. They exchanged glances before one of them swiftly turned and went to fetch the newspaper.
Qin Youxuan retreated back into the living room, picked up the remote control, and turned on the television.
She flipped through several channels, but couldn’t find the news she wanted to see.
A sense of calm gradually returned to her heart.
The bodyguard came back quickly. It took less than a minute for him to return with the papers that had just been published that morning.
Qin Youxuan spread the newspapers out on the table. After flipping through several pages, she came across the headline. Her body stiffened, and she collapsed onto the ground all of a sudden.
“Young Mistress, are you alright?”
The bodyguard asked with worry in his voice. Following Qin Youxuan’s gaze, he took a look at the headline and was struck dumb as well.
In the midst of Qin Youxuan’s stunned silence, her phone rang again.
Only after a long pause did Qin Youxuan reach out to touch her phone, but the call had already ended.
Not even three seconds had passed when the bodyguard’s phone rang next to her.
“Young Mistress, it’s a call from Mr. Jie,” the bodyguard looked at the caller ID on his phone and respectfully reminded her,
and handed over his phone to Qin Youxuan.
“Dan Hanjie, have you seen today’s newspaper?” Her voice wavered slightly.
Her hand holding the newspaper was shaking.
“Hmmm, I’ll handle it. Just stay at the hotel and wait for me. I’ll be back soon. Don’t pay attention to a single word from those reports,” the calm voice of Dan Hanjie came through her phone and her heart settled slightly.
“Your photo is in it,” Qin Youxuan mumbled.
She looked at the newspaper in her hand. Even from his silhouette, she could recognize him—that was Dan Hanjie.
The news of him assaulting Chiyo Ito had been exposed.
There were even a series of photos, though none of them were taken from the front.
However, the report clearly implied him with every word and sentence.
Dan Rong only had two sons, Dan Hanjie and Dan Hanxi. No one knew that Dam Hanxi was in Japan.
However, it was common knowledge that Dan Hanjie had been in Japan inspecting potential partnerships for the Dan Group.
Considering the photos in the paper, almost everyone would associate Dan Hanjie with the incident.
Qin Youxuan looked at the newspaper in her hands.
Chiyo Ito was pinned against a wall by a dozen people, while Dan Hanjie was standing less than two meters away from her.
Even though his back was turned to the camera, the lighting was dim and the photo was blurry. Nobody could confirm if it was truly Dan Hanjie.
But Qin Youxuan knew, it was him.
“I’ll handle it,” was the only thing Dan Hanjie emphasized before hanging up the phone.
“Find out which newspaper first reported the news, and their relationship with the Ito family,” Qin Youxuan pressed her lips together, stood up from the floor, and ordered.
Once the bodyguard left, she picked up her phone and called Ning Yanan.
Her Japanese was not very good, but she could understand spoken Japanese and only some simple written material.
To ascertain the truth, she could only ask Ning Yanan.
Ning Yanan arrived quickly after receiving the call.
Neither of them spoke upon meeting, instead both sat down across a coffee table from each other in silence for a while before Ning Yanan finally asked, “The Ito family confirmed it’s true—Chiyo Ito was indeed… assaulted. What’s really going on? Did Mr. Jie really do it?”
“It’s not him, Chiyo Ito is lying!” Qin Youxuan vehemently lifted her head, instinctively denying it.
