Xia Yangyang’s voice was also very calm.
It even carried a strange sincerity.
“Shen Shichuan, it’s just the two of us here, and I know that the moment you came in, all the cameras here ceased to work. At this point, there’s absolutely no need for you to deny this.”
Shen Shichuan was silent for a while.
Then, with a hint of amusement, he said, “So, you suspect that I was the one who exposed that video today, causing your reputation to be destroyed?”
“This is not a suspicion, but a fact.”
“I want to hear your thoughts. I have always treated you well, why would you think so?” Shen Shichuan’s voice was still gentle and calm.
There was no trace of heated emotion in their conversation.
It was just like ordinary chatting.
Xia Yangyang said, “Because there was an issue with the circuit on the 16th floor, guests were already banned from entering. No one would go to the 16th floor to find anyone, unless they knew we were there.”
“Oh? You mean that I knew you were on the 16th floor and deliberately filmed that video?”
“The rest area where we were located is very concealed, in the middle of the floor. It was precisely the time of the film and television festival, no one would come out, unless someone purposely came to find us. With hundreds of floors and countless rooms and rest areas in this building, it wouldn’t have been easy to find out where we were, unless someone knew and came purposefully.” “So why do you suspect me?”
“Because the only person who knew my whereabouts was Chen Yu, and I deliberately let Chen Yu reveal this information to you.”
Shen Shichuan’s eyebrows furrowed, “You said you did it on purpose, so does that mean you knew from the beginning that I would come?”
“Yes, I knew you would come. I intentionally said those words to Shen Manbing. Moreover, I knew that you would definitely record it and later use it to make a fuss.”
There was a look of puzzlement on Shen Shichuan’s face, but what was even more evident was the look of amusement.
He said with a laugh, “In that case, I don’t understand. If you have long suspected me, why did you purposely say those words to mislead the public? The fan’s incident has nothing to do with you. Why would you shoulder a charge of intentional homicide?”
Looking at Xia Yangyang, Shen Shichuan seemed to appreciate her in a strange way, “Xia Yangyang, can you tell me, what on earth are you doing?”
Xia Yangyang also laughed, “I’m just setting a trap for you.”
“Setting a trap?” Shen Shichuan’s mouth curved into a smile, “So, you want me to fall into your trap.”
Xia Yangyang also laughed, “The feeling’s mutual.”
“Then why would you do this? How can you be sure that I would definitely release this video at the film and television festival?”
“Because that would be the best time to ruin me. Being the center of attention, just after winning the Best Actress award and reaching the peak, releasing that video at that time would immediately send me to hell.”
“I have no reason to do that.”
“You do, you’re doing it for Shen Manbing.”
The air seemed to freeze for a moment.
Xia Yangyang continued, “The ‘Kingdom’s Heart’ was placed in my bag by your arrangement to set me up, right? Your aim was to destroy my reputation. As for the crazed fan incident, I don’t think you would have planned it. However, after it happened, you manipulated the public opinion, made a fuss about it, and labelled me as a homewrecker. Same goes for the advertisement incident, you deliberately gave me the endorsement that Shen Manbing was supposed to do. You just wanted to intensify the conflict between us. As for today, if I hadn’t won Best Actress, I guess you wouldn’t have been in a hurry. However, my threatening Shen Manbing, forcing her to retire from the entertainment circle, prompted you to expose the video, resulting in my demise.”
