Chapter 355: "Formal" Relationship
Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
However, the speed at which the college students who had previously conspired with Zhong Zhuoying to drug Yan Ai were sentenced was equally astonishing.
After a month of trial, Chen Hao, as Zhong Zhuoying's accomplice, accepted money from Zhong Zhuoying, agreed to Zhong Zhuoying's request, and attempted to rape Yan Ai. He was eventually convicted of attempted rape and sentenced to seven years in prison.
Chen Hao did not appeal, and the case was settled.
As for the other female college students, as accomplices, they were sentenced to 1 to 3 years in prison.
None of them appealed, and the case did not involve more people.
Moreover, there was no discussion about these students in her father's school. They were expelled quietly, as if they had never existed in the school.
Yan Ai knew that it was Feng Jue who was behind the scenes, not only ensuring that these people received the maximum sentence but also suppressing public opinion at school. But she had no gratitude at all.
Everything she and her father were experiencing now was caused by Feng Jue. So, no matter whether Feng Jue's actions were sincere or false, she would not appreciate it.
Besides, who knows if he is cooperating with Jiang Qiuning to help Jiang Qiuning become perfectly invisible?
Indeed, Yan Ai hadn't been idle for the past month. Using her own advanced technology and Chi Rui's covert investigation, she had already discovered the relationship between Jiang Qiuning and Jiang Shuo.
To be precise, Jiang Shuo and Zhong Zhuoying were among the many impoverished students Jiang Qiuning had sponsored. However, the traces of such an upright act of kindness were deliberately erased.
what does that mean?
It means that there is something fishy going on here.
I just don’t know what role Jiang Qiuning played in this and to what extent he was involved.
Yan Ai hadn't yet gathered any further evidence, only finding that they had a previous relationship. However, there were no records of phone calls or money transfers between them in recent years.
What’s even more coincidental is that in recent years, Jiang Qiuning has been developing abroad and rarely returns to China.
Of course, she also secretly investigated the connection between Feng Jue and Jiang Qiuning.
The result was nothing, so clean that it was suspicious.
Needless to say, these traces must have been cleared away by humans.
The information Yan Ai currently possessed was far from enough to bring down the "mastermind behind the scenes." So she told Chi Rui to keep a low profile and continue the investigation in secret.
This weekend, Yan Ai asked Yang Weizhao to meet at her home as usual, and informed Yang Weizhao of the latest situation she had investigated last week.
Yan Ai's home was well-equipped, and Yang Weizhao knew the secret of her rebirth. So after discussing it privately, the two decided to publicly announce that they were dating. This way, Yang Weizhao could visit her home openly every weekend without arousing anyone's suspicion.
That day, they still discussed business in the morning, cooked at home at noon, and went out for a "date" in the afternoon depending on the situation, such as watching a movie.
Apart from the lack of intimate actions such as holding hands and kissing, their interactions seemed to be normal and successfully deceived everyone. Even Yang Weizhao himself was a little "confused".
"Isn't your birthday next Wednesday?"
At lunch time, Yang Weizhao helped pick vegetables in the kitchen, and Yan Ai was responsible for cooking.
He suddenly remembered that Yan Ai's birthday was next Wednesday, but he would not be free until the weekend, which meant he could not celebrate Yan Ai's birthday on the actual day.
So, he wanted to celebrate Yan Ai's birthday a few days in advance, tonight, just the two of them.
Yan Ai was processing the freshly marinated pork belly. Hearing this, she looked up and smiled, "Yeah, I've already turned 24 without realizing it."
In her previous life, she only lived to the age of 27, and Yang Weizhao only lived to the age of 29. In this life, I wonder if the two of them can break the fate of their previous lives.
