Ye Linchen, on the other hand, was squeezed to the other side of the crowd, standing alone.
Gu Jingran walked through the crowd to Ye Linchen's side and asked her in a low voice, "What happened?"
Ye Linchen remained calm and showed no sign of panic.
She gestured with her chin toward Meng Zihan.
She said that Gu Yifei had sexually assaulted her and that she wanted everyone to help her get justice.
"Indecent assault against her?"
Gu Jingran raised an eyebrow, but before he could say anything, Meng Zihan, who was being comforted by others, saw him.
As if she had found a new target, she stopped crying, suddenly raised her hand, and pointed directly at Gu Jingran.
She raised her voice and screamed, "It was him! He's the one who dragged away the man who assaulted me! They're brothers!"
Fearing others wouldn't believe her, she added, "He must have come to meet my cousin; they're in cahoots, trying to escape!"
Upon hearing this, the onlookers turned around and looked at Gu Jingran with suspicion.
The encirclement shifted instantly, trapping Gu Jingran and Ye Linchen firmly in the center.

After saying that, he took out his phone from his pocket and, under everyone's gaze, dialed his lawyer's number.

After getting out of the car and understanding the general situation, the two police officers were about to take Meng Zihan, Ye Linchen, and other relevant personnel back to the station.
After listening to Meng Zihan's embellished and tearful account, one of the police officers said to his colleague, "It seems we need to send more people to arrest that person involved named Gu Yifei."
Gu Jingran stepped forward and said, "Officer, no need."
He pointed to the parking lot ahead and said, "My younger brother, Gu Yifei, is in the car. He's drunk. We've never done anything like this, and we don't plan to run away."
"We will cooperate fully with the police investigation. We only hope that the police will be fair and just and clear our names."
