Chapter 174 Gu Xing Takes the Blame
Shen Chaohuai rubbed his fingers together, looking at Zheng Xin with a deep expression: "I recorded what you said, and it is enough as evidence to prove that Gu Xing's crimes were the result of brainwashing."
Zheng Xin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "Please, please save Gu Xing. He is innocent. All those things he did in the past were innocent."
"And all the marketing I did before was just wishful thinking on my part."
“I used the same methods as those rich women who took him in, forcing him to only do marketing with me. It’s all my fault…”
Zheng Ran rubbed his forehead, his face full of disappointment: "Zheng Xin! You've disappointed me so much! How dare you say anything to an outsider like this?!"
"I only wanted to save him. Unlike you, I'm nothing but a hypocrite!"
"you!"
The brother and sister started arguing back and forth.
"These words are enough for me to expose many of the Zheng family's dark secrets," Shen Chaohuai said with a smile.
Zheng Xin and Zheng Ran suddenly stopped, and Zheng Ran instantly calmed down: "Threatening me?"
“Yes,” Shen Chaohuai said bluntly, “I’m threatening you: either turn yourself in or drag Shu Yu down with you.”
When Zheng Xin heard that Shen Chaohuai meant to save Gu Xing, she was quite surprised: "Brother Shen, you...you actually want to save him?"
Zheng Xin was so moved that she couldn't hold back her tears.
“My own brother is not as good at distinguishing right from wrong as an outsider.”
"Gu Xing isn't a bad person, he's just too pitiful..."
"Brother Shen, if you can really save him, I'm willing to give up Gu Xing and let your adopted sister be with him!"
Shen Chaohuai covered his face with his hand: "Hey, hey, let's just forget about it."
She agreed, but Shen Chaohuai did not.
Helping Gu Xing is one thing, but the matter between Su Qi and Gu Xing is another; they cannot be generalized.
As Shen Chaohuai had expected, Zheng Ran retrieved a video clip from the computer, asked Zheng Xin to leave, and projected it onto Shen Chaohuai's screen alone.
The video's timeline points to the night Su Qi's identity was almost exposed, with a woman standing in a corner.
Shen Chaohuai wasn't surprised, after all, Zheng Ran held absolute power in Hong Kong, and no matter what he and Su Qi did, they couldn't escape Zheng Ran's control.
Moreover, this smiling fox in front of me has a connection with that woman.
“I heard from that young lady from the Gu family that neither you nor your adopted sister seem to be the real people,” Zheng Ran said, looking at Shen Chaohuai meaningfully.
Shen Chaohuai paused: "Is the video you're showing me now evidence?"
"Isn't that right? Otherwise, how could a person disappear into thin air, and how could they appear out of thin air at the same point in time?" Zheng Ran's voice became clearer and clearer.
"Releasing this video would be enough to ruin her reputation."
"If you dare to bet, then I dare to issue it."
Shen Chaohuai was indeed a little nervous. He originally wanted to trick Zheng Ran to see if Zheng Ran had guessed Su Qi's identity, but he didn't expect Zheng Ran to have even caught him by the nose.
“Name your terms. Businesses in Hong Kong are known for their integrity, and I trust that Young Master Zheng will not go back on his word.”
"What are the conditions?" Zheng Ran sat down and relaxed, taking a sip of tea.
"Delete the video, and make sure to delete it completely, that's the first point."
"Secondly, it is forbidden to disclose anything about Su Qi's identity in order to avoid creating scandals."
Zheng Ran replied with a smile, then pulled out a pack of cigarettes from the table: "You certainly know how to daydream, but what about me? What's in it for me?"
After speaking, Shen Chaohuai took a USB flash drive out of his purse and handed it to him.
"See for yourself."
"Things related to you."
Zheng Ran's expression changed drastically after reading it: "How did you know I..."
"How did you make your fortune? Your methods are not much different from those of the man surnamed Gu. The only difference is that one was forced, and the other was willing."
"If you disagree, we can all go to jail together for investigation."
"Are you threatening me again?" Zheng Ran glared at him angrily.
"I have many things that can threaten you, but you only have one thing that can threaten me."
It was a danger that Su Qi could have avoided by using his abilities.
"Su Qishi, it was Gu Yan who first told you about it, right?"
"I never expected that you two, who have such a deep-seated hatred for each other, could join forces to suppress Su Qi."
Zheng Ran clenched his fist and took a deep breath: "Now that you've finished threatening me, what's your purpose?"
“If you delete the video, I will no longer expose the behind-the-scenes story of Gu Xing’s fake relationship turning real, and I can naturally ensure your safety.”
Zheng Ran laughed and said, "You mean, let Gu Xing take the blame for this?"
Shen Chaohuai paused for a moment, then said, "Yes."
As Shen Chaohuai left the Zheng family home, he let out a deep sigh.
In the end, there was still no way to save him.
But at least, Shen Chaohuai can protect Su Qi.
The Capital Interrogation Room.
Shu Yu calmly sat down: "Officer, have you finished asking your questions? Can I be cleared of suspicion?"
Su Qi sneered, confidently taking out the video recording saved by the system.
Shu Yu's figure appeared three minutes before the recording of the dating reality show was about to begin.
She stood in front of Gu Xing and said something to him, the content of which was very clear.
Shu Yu looked at her in horror and asked, "How did you get this kind of video?"
Su Qi then produced further evidence: before the recording of the dating reality show, Shu Yu had hired several netizens to cyberbully Gu Xing in the comments section.
The evidence was conclusive, but the next second, a long, lanky figure burst in.
Everything was interrupted, and the officer decided to talk to him first.
"Shen Chaohuai?"
Gu Xing also looked up.
Shu Yu clearly wrote down the whole story of Gu Xing's crime in her notebook, and even clearly wrote down his motive: love turned to hate.
The officer believed him.
No matter how Gu Xing explained, no one at the scene would listen anymore.
Su Qi's original intention was for Gu Xing and Shu Yu to be tried together, but she didn't expect that Gu Xing would end up taking the blame alone.
Shen Chaohuai entered, and Su Qi stepped forward: "You know the truth, don't you? Can you..."
Shen Chaohuai paused, but finally steeled himself and interrupted, "No, Su Qi, this matter must be resolved by one person."
Gu Xing understood what they meant; in other words, he was destined to take the blame.
He looked up at the ceiling in despair: "I did everything the Zheng family told me to do, but in the end, I still ended up as a prisoner."
Shu Yu then opened the door and went out, pretending that none of this had happened.
As soon as the door opened, Zheng Xin pushed Shu Yu aside and rushed in.
It's common knowledge across the internet that Zheng Xin likes Gu Xing.
Of course, Gu Xing himself never pretended to be oblivious to Zheng Xin's unrequited love.
Even though he had said long ago that he didn't mean it that way, he didn't expect that Zheng Xin would actually come to see him.
Gu Xingdao: "You came here to help me clear my name?"
He even fantasized that the last person to appear was his only lifeline.
Zheng Xin seemed to have made up her mind, her expression somewhat fierce: "I'm sorry, I'm here to expose Gu Xing."
Su Qi and Shen Chaohuai were suddenly taken aback.
Shen Chaohuai was very curious. He had just been pleading for Gu Xing at the Zheng family's house, so why had his attitude changed so drastically here?
Gu Xing shook his head in disbelief, then smiled with relief.
"Gu Xing's intentional harm and his turning a fake show into a real one were personal actions, and had nothing to do with Shu Yu and the Shen family."
“It’s nothing!”
