Li Mo was pale, not understanding how things had developed to this point.
She looked around pleadingly, but everyone around her was pointing and whispering.
Li Mo was on the verge of collapse.
Chen Jiayi hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward to stop Du Guizhi.
"Aunt Du, we shouldn't air our dirty laundry in public. Why don't we close the door and deal with this later?"
Chen Jiayi turned around and glanced at Li Mo, who quickly hid under the covers and put on his clothes.
Du Guizhi was so angry that she couldn't listen to anything else.
She shoved Chen Jiayi aside and pointed at Li Mo, cursing him.
"So many people saw it! You've already lost all face! I'll beat you to death today!"
Du Guizhi grabbed whatever was at hand and threw it at Li Mo.
Li Mo remained silent. She stood up and glanced at the man in the same bed.
This man was a rising star in Haicheng. He had a calm expression on his face, as if he didn't care about being seen by so many people.
Li Mo felt a throbbing sensation in his temples.
She took a deep breath. "Call the police!"
Immediately, Li Mo's sharp eyes turned to Lin Yuyao, who was watching the scene unfold.
"Lin Yuyao, I only drank one glass of wine today, and it was given to me by you. After drinking the alcohol you gave me, I lost consciousness, and when I woke up, I was in this room."
Lin Yuyao feigned surprise, "Sister-in-law, you did something to wrong my brother, and now you're framing me?"
Li Mo sneered and took off his coat.
She's wearing a spaghetti strap dress with a short jacket today.
When he took off his coat, everyone could see the scars on Li Mo's hands.
It looked like it had been burned.
Li Mo pointed at the scars, his eyes cold.
"You've pressed these cigarette butts into my hand. You've forgotten that I haven't. I was wondering why you were so kind as to offer me drinks and even tried to make up with me. Turns out it was all to humiliate me."
Although Li Mo tried to face the truth, she was already ruined.
Next, rumors and gossip will ruin her unless she moves to a city where no one knows her.
It's said that marrying into a wealthy family involves swallowing needles.
Li Mo didn't believe it at first, but now she deeply regrets marrying Lin Chen'an.
Li Mo insisted on calling the police. Seeing how determined Li Mo was, everyone couldn't help but think that Li Mo might have been set up.
Chen Jiayi felt that something was wrong.
She looked around and realized that Song Zhiya, who had given her the things, was nowhere to be found.
Chen Jiayi frowned, feeling somewhat uneasy.
The police arrived at the scene quickly.
First they checked which glass of wine Li Mo had drunk from, then they checked the others.
After much trouble, it was discovered that Li Mojiu had been drugged.
It's hard to determine exactly what kind of drug it is, but it seems to be a drug that causes unconsciousness.
After hearing the official assessment, many people believed that Li Mo had been drugged.
But who would drug Li Mo?
This question has been lingering in everyone's mind.
Until a girl casually said something.
"Today I saw Miss Chen hiding something on herself, it looked like powder."
Chen Jiayi suddenly looked up.
She knew something was wrong; she and Li Mo had been set up.
Li Mo's face darkened, and his gaze toward Chen Jiayi became suspicious.
When someone suggested searching Chen Jiayi, Lan Meixuan was the first to stand up and disagree.
"If she demands a body search based on a single sentence, I can simply say I saw her drug Li Mo!"
The police officers exchanged embarrassed glances; many of the people at the scene were wealthy housewives from Haicheng.
In this era, wealthy wives generally come from powerful and influential families.
Who dares to offend them?
Finally, they discussed how the Li and Chen families could try to understand each other.
It's just a body search; nothing else.
Chen Jiayi's heart sank. She realized that whether she searched her or not today, she would be the subject of gossip.
Especially Li Mo.
If you agree to be searched, anything you haven't had time to deal with will be found.
If she were to explain, it would feel like she was trying to cover something up.
However, if they refuse to be searched, they seem to be trying to hide it.
Chen Jiayi glanced at the girl who had just spoken, but the girl lowered her head, not daring to meet Chen Jiayi's gaze.
Chen Jiayi chuckled softly, "I do have something on me."
She took the thing out.
Then, it was handed over several times.
"But this was given to me by Song Zhiya."
Lin Yuyao's face darkened immediately when she saw what Chen Jiayi was holding.
She immediately realized she had been misled.
Chen Jiayi observed the expressions of the people around her and saw the fleeting surprise in Lin Yuyao's eyes, immediately realizing that the item belonged to her.
The police sent the substance to a doctor for identification, and after it was determined to be a drug that could induce unconsciousness, the suspect became Chen Jiayi.
Chen Jiayi now understood why she felt something was off.
She couldn't help but regret why she had accepted something from a stranger.
Why did I do something so stupid?
Seeing Lan Meixuan's worried expression, Chen Jiayi shook her head.
Du Guizhi insisted that Chen Jiayi had deliberately embarrassed Li Mo.
Just when everyone thought Chen Jiayi had done it, Li Mo slowly spoke.
"Wait, when did you see Chen Jiayi hiding something on herself?"
Li Mo questioned the girl who had just reported Chen Jiayi. The girl was stunned for a few seconds, then panicked and made up a time.
"Seven...seven o'clock. Yes, I don't remember exactly. But it should have been around seven o'clock, the banquet had been going on for a while."
"The timing doesn't match up. I drank the beverage Lin Yuyao gave me at 7:30."
