Chapter 201 Found
"Hey, do you think your brother really likes Xu Songning that much? What's wrong with Cheng Ou compared to him? I thought there would be a good show tonight." Lin Yao sipped her juice and leaned back leisurely on the sofa.
Cui Yuyue gave her a disdainful look. "My brother and sister-in-law have a great relationship. Stop talking bad about them! Even if hundreds of Cheng Ou came, my sister-in-law would still stand firm!"
"Where can you find someone so resolute? I've seen plenty of people who mess around abroad, even their own sisters' boyfriends. People are capable of anything if they have the will," Lin Yao said quietly.
"Is this the poisoned mindset you've been given?"
A sentence came crashing down on her head, followed by a wet, plastic-sealed package being tossed into Lin Yao's arms.
"Sister-in-law!" Cui Yuyue exclaimed excitedly.
Lin Yao practically screamed as she jumped up. Her dress and hair were soaked with water from the package and smelled terrible.
"what you do?!"
"What do you think?" Xu Songning looked down at her.
When Lin Yao saw what was in the package, a chill ran down her spine. It was the cell phone she had hidden in the toilet tank.
"You actually went to the toilet to look for it?!"
Xu Songning chuckled, "If you dare to put it in the toilet, what wouldn't I dare to take?"
Her hands were still wet, so Zhou Qiao quickly went to get a towel.
Lin Yao looked at the water on her body with disgust, tore off a piece of paper, wiped herself haphazardly a few times, crumpled the paper into a ball, and smelled it; it had an unpleasant odor.
"Xu Songning, are you out of your mind? What does this have to do with me? Why are you throwing this at me?!"
"It's fine if you don't admit it. We have surveillance footage, fingerprints, and eyewitness accounts. Which do you prefer? Or shall we go to the police station and talk about it there?"
Xu Songning stared at her with her beautiful big eyes. When she was angry, her gaze was sharp, making Lin Yao afraid to meet her eyes.
"You..." Lin Yao was speechless.
"Found it?" Gu Xing happened to walk over, his shirt tucked in, with a few streaks of dust on his arm.
Xiang Yun took the towel Zhou Qiao brought and tore off two wet wipes to help Xu Songning dry his hands.
Xu Songning knew he was a germaphobe, so she took a step back and said, "Brother Yun, it's okay, I'll go wash up later, it's dirty."
This step back had a different meaning in Xiang Yun's eyes.
He grabbed Xu Songning's arm, his voice low and menacing, "Don't move!"
Looking at his cold expression, Xu Songning felt that she was doomed, as she seemed to have crossed Xiang Yun's bottom line again.
The wet wipes were used to wipe the skin several times until Xu Songning whispered, "Okay, okay, if you keep wiping, you'll scratch the skin off."
"The other hand."
Xu Songning put his other hand behind his back and said guiltily, "This hand isn't dirty."
Xiang Yun then threw away the wet wipes and examined the plastic-sealed package on the table.
He knew very well what was inside.
"Lin Yao, are you still going to deny it?" Xiang Yun pointed to the evidence.
Lin Yao trembled uncontrollably. She raised her face, tears welling up in her eyes instantly. "Brother Yun, I did this for you! To let you see Xu Songning's true colors."
Xiang Yun was fed up with her sophistry and didn't want to hear such absurd words anymore. She was clearly acting out of self-interest, yet she managed to pin the blame on others.
"I don't want to hear a single word of nonsense. You'd better think carefully before you speak." Xiang Yun's cold tone froze Xu Songning's heart as well.
Ever since Xiang Yun came to the bar to help her out, he hasn't had any direct communication with her. She doesn't even know why Xiang Yun, who should be flying, is in a bar right now.
But now is not a good time to ask these questions, so she can only keep them to herself.
“If you can’t explain yourself, then let’s go. I’ll drive you to the police station. This should be enough to get you detained for five days. No phone, no family, meals of cabbage soup with steamed buns, no personal freedom, and you’ll be watched day and night. Can you handle that?” Xu Songning took out his car keys and waved them in front of her.
"You're threatening me?!" Lin Yao panicked. Having lived abroad for many years, she had little awareness of domestic laws. These past few days, while interning at a law firm, she had heard about various criminal punishments. The mere mention of detention gave her goosebumps.
She grew up in luxury, pampered by her mother, and could never have endured the days Xu Songning described.
"I just... I just secretly filmed it. I didn't distribute it or download it. The videos are all on my phone. Once I delete them, there won't be a second copy. I'm sorry, Sister Xu, please forgive me." Lin Yao gripped her skirt tightly, her fingers trembling slightly.
She didn't know she was wrong; she was facing certain death and had no choice but to submit.
“If we haven’t found it today, it should have spread by tomorrow, right?” Xu Songning asked her.
Lin Yao bit her lip and shook her head, "No, Sister Xu, I just wanted to show Brother Yun this, I will never send it out!"
Upon hearing this, Xiang Yun could no longer contain his anger. He shielded Xu Songning behind him and gestured for Lin Yao to step back.
Lin Yao, like a startled rabbit, took two steps back.
To everyone's surprise, Xiang Yun actually opened the sealed plastic bag and, disregarding whether the water was dirty or not, took out his phone.
In full view of everyone, Xiang Yun picked up his phone and smashed it hard on the ground.
The phone screen shattered instantly, shards of glass flying everywhere!
"Aaaaaah!!"
Lin Yao was startled and leaned against the wall, her fingernails helplessly gripping the surface, unable to look at the furious Xiang Yun.
Xiang Yun picked up the phone, and after confirming that it could no longer be turned on, he threw it into a barrel of wine to soak. Now, even a god couldn't turn it on.
"Damn it! My wine!" Zhou Qiao almost went up and punched someone.
Xu Songning quickly stopped her and whispered, "I'll pay for it, I'll pay for it!"
"You're the one who wants to do bad things, but you always try to shift the blame onto others. I warned you not to talk nonsense," Xiang Yun said, enunciating each word clearly.
The dormant volcano finally erupted, spewing scalding lava from the cracks in the mountain, flowing and scorching everything in its path.
Lin Yao stared at the phone soaking in the liquor, as if it were her own image, being slapped in public and shoved into a barrel of liquor.
Jealousy, anger, fear...
Overwhelmed by all her emotions, she dared not speak to Xiang Yun and Xu Songning with gentle words anymore, because someone might actually lay a hand on her.
"If you dare hit me, I'll report you tomorrow!" Lin Yao shouted hysterically.
One was an Air China captain, and the other was an air traffic controller from the Civil Aviation Administration of China. Lin Yao was certain that "reporting" would solve their problems, so they dared not make any rash moves against him.
"Do you think the company and the Civil Aviation Administration are blind or deaf? Do you only listen to your side of the story? There are surveillance cameras here, and so many witnesses. Do you think your report is any real weight?" Gu Xing said disdainfully.
Xiang Yun's aura was so fierce it was frightening, and even Cui Yuyue didn't dare to say a word. In her experience, this was her brother's emotional outburst, and it would probably be difficult to control the situation from here on out.
