Chapter 1056 I Don’t Believe It

Although the young woman knew it was inappropriate, she couldn't help but roll her eyes at the family.

The victim's parents were also brought back to their senses by the woman's shout. Realizing what she had said, their eyes lit up, and they exclaimed excitedly, "The surveillance footage? What surveillance footage? Can we see it?"

Logically, such crucial evidence related to the case should not be disclosed, but faced with the victim's parents' pleas, the young woman ultimately softened her heart.

After obtaining permission, the video was shown to the group, but they were only allowed to watch it on-site; filming and dissemination were prohibited.

After watching the video, the victim's parents became even more heartbroken and furious. Their eyes were filled with malice as they looked at the woman's family, wishing they could tear them apart alive.

The woman and her family never expected such a turn of events. Their faces turned pale, as if their own skin had been peeled off.

Although the woman's parents were furious that their daughter had done something so shameful and hadn't finished dealing with the situation, the child was still theirs.

Even though it was a disgrace, he couldn't bear to see his daughter ruined like this. He secretly contacted the victim's parents several times, hoping to use money to settle things with them and make them drop the matter.

Unfortunately, if they hadn't been so arrogant at the beginning and had instead played the victim, the other party might have softened their stance a little.

Because of their actions, the victim's family had seen through what kind of people they were, and they refused to budge no matter how high the price offered.

The two had no choice but to run around trying to find someone to rescue their daughter. However, Li Jiaming and others' live streams were still online. It was no exaggeration to say that the woman was now the enemy of the people. Who would dare to take on this hot potato at this time?

Ultimately, the woman not only failed to escape punishment but also had to pay a large sum of money in compensation to the victim's family.

Besides her, Li Jiaming and others also didn't escape punishment. The other two boys were just companions and didn't do anything out of line during the process. They were only punished relatively lightly for disobeying orders and running away.

Although Li Jiaming did not harm anyone, he was the one who led the trip, and since something happened, he was originally responsible for some of the consequences. Therefore, he was sentenced more severely and, like the woman, was required to pay compensation to the deceased's family.

When the verdict was handed down, Li Jiaming wept with remorse, realizing that he had done all this simply to become famous and make money.

In the end, he did become famous, but infamous. He did make money, but he had to give it all away before he could even enjoy it, and he even had to pay out of pocket.

After all that effort, it was all for nothing. I got nothing and even got myself into trouble. I really don't know what I was doing it for.

However, thinking of his unfortunate companion who was killed and the woman who was punished, Li Jiaming felt a little comforted.

At least he's still alive, and at least those who deserve punishment haven't escaped justice.

However, Li Jiaming always felt that the surveillance footage was inextricably linked to the gentleman who had saved them that day.

If that's the case, then although the gentleman seems cold, he's actually a very warm-hearted person.

However, what Li Jiaming didn't know was that Feng Tianyu, whom he perceived as cold on the outside but warm on the inside, was actually facing a huge crisis.

"Junior Sister still refuses to see us?" Qi Yingxuan paced anxiously, his eyes filled with reproach as he looked at the others. "Don't you have any ideas?"

"If there were a solution, would I be here listening to your rambling?"

Xiang Yueqi sighed softly, her face filled with worry: "Ever since we returned from the night of the Ghost Festival, Junior Sister has locked herself in her study, refusing to eat or drink, and refusing to see us. Junior Sister is only a mortal now; how can she endure this without food and water? It's been several days already, if this continues..."

Xiang Yueqi's words were also what the others present were worried about.

Unfortunately, everyone was at a loss at this point. They had known Ye Wanxi for many years and understood her temperament best.

Junior Sister has a good personality and doesn't easily get upset or quarrel with people, but once she gets angry, no one can persuade her otherwise.

Xiang Yueqi sighed inwardly, then finally turned his attention to Feng Tianyu: "What happened that day was indeed a bit strange. Why did Master Wu... Wu Yequan revive as soon as Junior Sister's blood was in? Could it be that Junior Sister's blood has some special effects?"

"How could that be?" Qi Yingxuan retorted as soon as Xiang Yueqi finished speaking, "We've known our junior sister for so many years, if her blood really had any miraculous effects, wouldn't we know?"

"Why is that? Or is it just a coincidence? No matter whose blood was dripped, Wu Yequan would be resurrected?"

Xiang Yueqi frowned, clearly finding this statement hard to accept as well.

Jiang Lin, who had been standing by without participating in the discussion, spoke up at this moment: "Why?"

Jiang Lin asked this question to Feng Tianyu, and Xiang Yueqi and the others also looked at Feng Tianyu upon seeing this.

"Senior Brother, do you... know something?"

"Yeah, boss, if you know anything, tell us right away so we can figure out a way to persuade our junior sister to come out!"

Feng Tianyu met the questioning gazes of the group, but remained silent.

Just as Qi Yingxuan was about to complain impatiently, Feng Tianyu suddenly turned and left.

"Hey, I haven't finished talking yet! Where are you going?"

Seeing this, Xiang Yueqi quickly stopped Qi Yingxuan: "Don't chase after him, he must have gone to find his junior sister."

"Looking for Junior Sister?" Qi Yingxuan frowned deeply. "What's the point of looking for Junior Sister if he doesn't say anything? What if he angers her so much that she locks herself in her room and goes on a hunger strike again?"

Xiang Yueqi sighed: "Otherwise, what can we do? We don't even know what our junior sister is angry about."

Qi Yingxuan choked, increasingly feeling that Feng Tianyu knew something and was hiding it from them, and felt indignant.

Seeing that Feng Tianyu had left, Jiang Lin turned to Jun Wuduan, who was also not saying much, and said, "You speak."

Xiang Yueqi and the other person noticed something was wrong and looked over as well.

Jun Wuduan was slightly taken aback, then smiled faintly and asked, "What did you say?"

Qi Yingxuan squinted and leaned closer to him: "Third brother, you've been unusually quiet these past few days? This is so unlike you."

"I'm just worried about my junior sister's health, that's why I don't want to talk."

"real?"

"real."

Qi Yingxuan looked him up and down, then said, slowly and deliberately, "I don't believe it."

Jun Wuduan: "..." If you don't believe me, that's fine with me.

While Jun Wuduan was being questioned, Feng Tianyu had already reached the door of the study.

He stood at the door for a long time before finally pushing it open and going inside, as if he had made up his mind.

As soon as I entered, I saw Ye Wanxi sitting on the study floor with her back to me.

Bright sunlight streamed through the study window, falling on Ye Wanxi and casting a shadow on the floor. It was so familiar, yet Feng Tianyu, standing at the door, dared not look directly at it.
