However, after checking the surveillance, she found that all the cameras were working fine. Only the footage that could have captured her was missing.
Qin Yao asked the employees in the surveillance room: “What happened?”
The young man in the surveillance room hesitated: “Maybe the surveillance system was faulty.”
Unable to control his voice, Ye Xingguang exclaimed, “Are you taking me for a fool? The footage before and after is intact. Only the time when I was present, the footage was disrupted. It’s clear that it was deliberately deleted!”
Ye Tingnan rushed in after hearing what happened, “Take all the employees from the surveillance room now and question them. If no one can provide a reason, everyone will lose their jobs.”
There were more than ten employees in the surveillance room. Their faces changed drastically upon hearing this. One of them voiced their discontent: “Madam the President, it’s not our fault. We know nothing. Why would we be terminated if we can’t provide an explanation?”
Ye Tingnan gave a cold glance at this individual: “If an item thrown from a high floor hits a person, and nobody admits it, everyone in the entire building has to compensate. Some dare to tamper with the Presidential Palace’s surveillance. You are indeed courageous. If you don’t want to be treated unfairly, self-examine and feel free to report anything.”
Looking at Ye Tingnan protecting Ye Xingguang, Qin Yao pondered for a moment and said: “There were always people in the surveillance room within that hour. Think about it, who left the room during that timeframe, who received calls, or made contact with outsiders.”
Everyone looked at each other, murmuring amongst themselves.
“Yuan Bin went to the toilet.”
“Qiao Zhiyong went to the toilet too.”
“Miss Xia came to the surveillance room to find Suda.”
Hearing this, Ye Xingguang felt a throbbing pain in his temples: “Who is Suda?”
Everyone pointed to a slightly plump young man, who adjusted the black-framed glasses on his nose: “It’s not me.”
Ye Xingguang stared at him coldly: “Which Miss Xia sought you, was it Xia Yanyan? What was she looking for?”
Suda replied: “Miss Xia lost her earring and couldn’t find it, so she asked me to help her check the surveillance. That’s all.”
“Really? Just that and nothing else? I know that many men consider Xia Yanyan as their goddess and will unflinchingly go through fire and water for her, it’s not just you. I don’t care how you admire her, but if someone is helping Xia Yanyan to hurt me, remember, I will make sure he suffers a gruesome death!”
After saying this, Ye Xingguang turned to Ye Tingnan and said: “Cousin, I know who it is now.”
Ye Tingnan: “You mean, Xia Yanyan?”
“I’ve had a falling out with Xia Yanyan. Besides her, I can’t think of anyone else who would do this to me. I’m going to confront her about this matter. It would be helpful if you could interrogate this person for me.”
Having said this, Ye Xingguang stormed off. He had to find Xia Yanyan to demand the original footage.
Meanwhile, Ye Junqing called again. Ye Xingguang glanced at the caller ID but didn’t answer.
Until this matter was resolved, she didn’t want to answer any calls from that leech, let alone bear his anger. It was simply too much!
At this moment, Xia Yanyan was already sitting in her homebound luxury car and asked Ye Li: “Have all the photos been sent out?”
“Yes, they have been sent to all major media outlets. You can rest assured, Miss Xia, it’s guaranteed to be the headline tomorrow morning.”
A look of satisfaction crossed Xia Yanyan’s elegant face: “Send a copy to the Civil Affairs Bureau as well.”
As she spoke, Ye Li opened her mobile phone inbox, proceeded straight to the official complaint email of the Civil Affairs Bureau, and sent a report.
