"I have no reason to falsely accuse Ji Zhinan!" Mu Zeyu shouted. "If you don't believe me, go ask Xia Xia. We saw Ji Zhinan in the fire!"
"This incident has left Xiaxia with a psychological scar, resulting in her poor mental state. She often says inexplicable things. What? Is Young Master Mu having mental problems like my granddaughter?"
"..."
Mu Zeyu felt a sense of powerlessness, like punching cotton.
He still remembers the critical moment when the flames burned him and Ji Zhixia, and the pain he felt was unforgettable.
The abandoned factory was filled with smoke, and the oxygen was dwindling...
People die in fires every year, but very few are actually burned alive; most die from carbon monoxide poisoning.
By some stroke of luck, the fire broke the ropes binding them, and he and Ji Zhixia managed to escape the fire while still maintaining their last bit of consciousness. However, the factory gates were locked.
Luckily, there was a broken high window nearby, from which they jumped out. Because of the height, they immediately lost consciousness.
When I woke up, I was already in the hospital.
Mu Zeyu had fought hard to survive so that he could take revenge on Ji Zhinan, but now he realized that he couldn't do anything to Ji Zhinan at all.
Mr. Ji took out the USB drive he had brought: "This is the Ji family's surveillance footage, which is enough to prove Nan Nan's innocence."
Mu Daxiang's computer was in the ward, so he immediately took the USB drive and plugged it into the computer.
While the surveillance footage was being played, Old Master Ji continued, "The Mu and Ji families have thoroughly investigated all the surveillance footage near where the two children were injured, and found no suspicious persons. My Nan Nan was at home the whole time when the incident occurred and did not run away. This is enough to prove that Nan Nan is innocent."
After such a big incident involving Ji Zhixia and Mu Zeyu, how could the two families let it go so easily? But despite the investigation, they couldn't find anything.
The place where they had the accident was a desolate place, not in the city. It was a dark and desolate place with little surveillance and very few people around.
The next morning, villagers nearby saw smoke in the area and, thinking it was probably a fire, called 119. Firefighters rushed over immediately after receiving the call and found Ji Zhixia and Mu Zeyu barely alive.
Ji Zhinan did everything flawlessly, making it a perfect crime, so naturally he left no evidence.
Mu Daxiang carefully reviewed the surveillance footage but found nothing suspicious.
Ji Zhinan is completely innocent.
"I'm not lying, everything I said is true! Believe me, Xiaxia and I really saw Ji Zhinan!"
When Mu Zeyu saw that no one believed him, he became as anxious as a madman.
"Young Master Mu!" Ji Zhinan called out to him, took a deep breath, and continued, "Young Master Mu said that the person you like is my sister, but can you guarantee that you've never liked me?"
"..."
Mu Zeyu used to rarely pay attention to Ji Zhixia, and always clung to Ji Zhinan. No one would believe that he had never liked Ji Zhinan.
“But I don’t have a good impression of Young Master Mu, so Young Master Mu said he liked my sister Ji Zhixia instead.”
“My sister Ji Zhixia liked you when she was little, but you always lingered around me. I’m sure my sister harbors some resentment towards me. As for Young Master Mu’s unrequited love for me… Young Master Mu’s earlier statement about love turning into hate is probably referring to himself.”
Ji Zhixia harbored resentment towards Ji Zhinan, while Mu Zeyu was annoyed at not being able to get Ji Zhinan's attention. So the two of them conspired to shift the blame onto Ji Zhinan.
