Chapter 58 Exposing Them
"Our company is choosing this piece of land to build a resort villa. We will also be able to welcome foreign tourists and pave a way for the integration of domestic and foreign cultures..."
After listening to it, Mr. Xi thought it was pretty good and nodded secretly in his heart.
When it was Li Beiting's turn, he gave Jiang Yao a look.
Jiang Yao raised his eyebrows in surprise. He didn't expect that he trusted him so much.
Since that’s the case, Jiang Yao is not nervous.
"We plan to develop this land for aviation research and contribute to my country's aerospace industry..."
President Xi listened silently to her clear plan and explanation, and became more and more shocked.
Such a girl has such ambitious goals.
At this moment, Jiang Yao looked like he was shining.
After listening to the explanations of both sides, President Xi finally made a decision. Returning to the venue, he picked up the microphone and announced.
"I will sell the land development rights to Mr. Li Beiting and Ms. Jiang Yao."
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience burst into thunderous applause.
Only Lu Xuan felt extremely complicated.
It's even a little unbelievable, how is this possible!
If Jiang Yao still stayed by his side, this project would undoubtedly be won by Lu's.
But now, she seemed to no longer belong to him.
"Congratulations, Mr. Li, and Miss Jiang is also impressive."
Many people at the scene congratulated Li Beiting and his friends.
Jiang Yao has always been used to socializing, and he is still used to it now.
At this time, another reporter came over, holding a camera and pointing the microphone at Jiang Yao, "Ms. Jiang, what is the secret to your acquisition of this piece of land?"
"Miss Jiang, what is your relationship with Mr. Li?"
Jiang Yao responded according to social etiquette, with a smile on his face, without any panic, and his expression remained calm and composed.
Until one of the reporters suddenly raised the microphone and spoke loudly -
"Ms. Jiang, you are a completely different person now. It's truly enviable that you've achieved such great things. But regarding the time when you were abducted by human traffickers for several days and raped by countless people, do you have anything to explain to the public?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene was quiet for a few seconds, and then a loud noise broke out!
"What do you mean by kidnapping or rape? Oh my god, there are actually such things."
“There are still many people…”
Gradually, I heard more and more discussions, all of which were full of malice.
Of course, Xu Yueyao’s instigation was indispensable in this.
She looked at Jiang Yao's gradually pale face with a smug look on her face, waiting for her to dodge and escape in a panic like she did in the past, and become the object of everyone's ridicule and mockery.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xuan's face had become extremely gloomy and ugly.
This has been a thorn in his heart over the years.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to be nice to Jiang Yao, but no man should be able to accept this, right?
It's like finding a fly in a delicious dish.
It's like a lump in the throat, hard to swallow.
Even though Jiang Yao explained it, he never believed it.
Every time he thought about it, he felt a little disgusted, so he subconsciously rejected Jiang Yao...
But now, this news has been exposed?
Wouldn’t that mean everyone knows that they’ve been cuckolded?
His face turned pale and he wanted to turn around and leave.
The next second, Jiang Yao's clear voice sounded, enunciating each word.
"I admit that I was captured that year, but I wasn't raped. Instead, I went through countless hardships and dangers and successfully escaped!"
Xu Yueyao was stunned. She didn't expect that she actually admitted it. She quickly winked at the other reporter who was bribed.
The reporter immediately understood and moved the microphone forward a little.
"Then Miss Jiang, can I understand that the incident has already happened, and in order to protect your reputation, of course you will say that she was not raped. In fact, she has already been raped, and you are afraid that you will not be able to get married, so you deliberately say this!"
Jiang Yao could naturally hear the malice in these words, and she took a deep breath.
In fact, this matter was not a secret back then, but after so many years, someone suddenly brought it up again, and it was obvious that they were well prepared. She knew that the matter was definitely not simple.
However, it seems that the people behind her have forgotten that she is no longer the Jiang Yao of the past!
Her psychologist told her that simply escaping is not a solution, and only by facing the problem can it be solved.
Jiang Yao's face turned pale as he suppressed the physical nausea he felt whenever he thought about it.
She has clearly started a new life now, so she will definitely not be defeated by such things.
And it’s over, it’s all over…
But the eyes around her fell on her one after another, reminding her of the nightmare from that year...
She looked at the reporter who asked the question and wanted to speak.
But no sound came out.
At this time, a figure was faster and came directly to her side, speaking in a low voice.
"Jiang Yao, listen to me, it's okay."
The warmth spread along his hand to his heart little by little, and Jiang Yao's eyes, which had been somewhat out of focus, gradually warmed up.
"Senior, I..."
A hint of heartache flashed in Li Beiting's eyes. Looking at her trying hard to hold on, he shook his head at her.
"I'll take care of it."
Then a pair of eyes stared closely at the reporter who had just asked the question.
"Which media outlet are you from? Asking this kind of question, is this your professionalism?"
"What?"
The reporter who asked the question was frightened by the man's cold eyes and took a step back, then spoke in a somewhat timid tone.
"I...I'm just telling the truth, Mr. Li, are you threatening me?"
"When did the victim become the guilty party? Is reputation more important than life? She was able to escape from the devil's den on her own, which is such a remarkable feat. What qualifications do you have to question her innocence?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene became much quieter, and the reporter's eyes became evasive, unable to utter a word.
This is the truth, but...
Jiang Yao looked at the man in front of him, listening to every word he spoke to defend her.
A warm feeling surged in my heart.
Now, it’s different from back then…
Now someone is standing firmly by her side, helping her and protecting her!
Suddenly, Jiang Yao felt a surge of courage in his heart, and finally stood up.
Although the sound was not very loud, it was loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly.
"I wasn't the one who did something wrong, it was the traffickers. I have nothing to hide.
On the contrary, those who link a woman's innocence with marriage are truly ignorant and shallow. In the eyes of such people, women are not people, but objects and tools! Do we deserve to be stabbed in the back if we lose our innocence?
"The three thousand Mauser rifles in your hands should be aimed at the traffickers, not the victims!!"
The warmth in Jiang Yao's body gradually returned, and she turned to look at Xu Yueyao in the crowd.
"And I know that my capture by human traffickers wasn't an accident. Someone deliberately harmed me. I will find the murderer behind this and make her pay a heavy price!"
Xu Yueyao suddenly felt guilty when she was looked at like that, and took two steps back in fear.
She felt as if something was spiraling out of control.
After Jiang Yao finished speaking, he turned around and left with his back straight.
The scene suddenly became extremely quiet.
Then someone spoke up.
“Yes, the ones who should be blamed for this are the human traffickers.”
"Who of you just said something so unpleasant? As journalists, you have no manners at all. Reporting this incident recklessly won't do any good at all."
"Yes, which media outlet is this from? Expose them!!"
