The truth was, Young Master Leng appeared at one of Li Yuxin’s commercial shootings by chance and she had taken the opportunity to exchange small talk with the former.
She then received a bouquet of flowers after that encounter. Li Yuxin and the rest of the crew naturally thought the bouquet was delivered by Young Master Leng. However, she found out later that someone else had gifted it but she did not explain further upon seeing the others’ admiring glances.
Li Yuxin knew of Young Master Leng’s prestigious status, thus she also hoped to befriend him.
The rumor spread eventually. However, Young Master Leng did not come forward to explain himself, hence she did not either.
It was out of her expectation that Young Master Leng would humiliate her under public scrutiny at a time like this.
“You should know the consequences of stirring up trouble at my event. Now, tell us what’s actually happened?” Young Master Leng threw a casual glance at Chu Wuyou. His favoritism toward Chu Wuyou was evident.
Ye Lanchen’s eyes darkened. Was this man trying to rescue his woman?
“Miss Chu, I didn’t want to offend you. It was Chu Ninger who told me to do so. Chu Ninger said she’ll offer me a modeling role with the Chu family business if I assist her and I was persuaded by the benefits.”
Li Yuxin’s whole body was shaking in fear. She was fully aware of Young Master Leng’s ruthlessness, so she did not take the risk of provoking the latter. She confessed honestly even before Young Master Leng’s voice trailed off.
“Miss Chu, what I said earlier is what really happened. I didn’t know you before and there was no reason for me to set you up. Chu Ninger is really the mastermind behind it. She made me do this,” Li Yuxin explained over and over again for fear that Chu Wuyou would not believe her.
“What nonsense are you talking about? Don’t you come accusing me without proof.” Emotion chased over Chu Ninger’s features in quick succession but she did not admit to the blame.
“I do have proof. I recorded our conversation just in case you don’t honor your promise later.” Even if Li Yuxin was only a newbie model, she had been involved in the entertainment industry for a couple of years. Naturally, she had a few tricks up her sleeve after learning about ugly conducts that often occurred within the field.
Within a matter of seconds, she retrieved her cell phone and played the aforementioned recording.
“Do me a favor and I’ll offer you a modeling role in the Chu family business.” Chu Ninger’s voice blasted through the speaker loud and clear.
“What do you want me to do?”
“Find an opportunity to plant your necklace into her purse then accuse her of stealing it. I’ll let you into the Chu company if you succeed.”
The recording was enough evidence to support Li Yuxin’s claim.
Right at this moment, Chu Ninger appeared deathly pale. She wanted to refute but she stood no chance in front of the concrete proof.
“Oh, it turns out my own sister is the one behind all this. If so…” Brows slightly knitted together, Chu Wuyou turned to Chu Ninger and paused her speech midway for dramatic effect.
Upon hearing her words, the crowd thought that Chu Wuyou would let her sister off the hook even if the latter was the one behind this scheming plot. They were family, after all.
Fifth Young Master Shen’s face darkened. Would this foolish woman let things go at that?
She had been framed by Chu Ninger more than once. Had she forgotten it all?
“Officers, please deal with the matters according to official principles.” Chu Wuyou finally continued her sentence just when the crowd was guessing her next moves.
Fifth Young Master Shen was slightly surprised. F*ck. She really did not need to take such a massive breather in between words.
“Ha, sure.” The young policeman failed to suppress his laughter.
“There’s no need to look through the footage since we’ve already cleared things out. Chief Shen, can I please have that back?” Chu Wuyou landed her gaze on the “miniature camera” positioned in Fifth Young Master Shen’s hand.
