Tian Liwei's expression was a little stiff. She forced a smile and explained through gritted teeth.
"I...I just don't want...I don't want Jiaqi to keep making mistakes. As her best friend, if I don't help her, no one else can."
There was a flash of sarcasm in Xunmi's eyes. This was the first time he didn't pretend to be a simple and innocent child.
The ridicule, so clear and obvious that it was almost naked, pierced Tian Liwei's heart.
"Hypocritical woman, if my best friend makes a mistake, I will definitely help her if I can, but I will keep my mouth shut if I can't."
"So many years of friendship, is it not enough to protect someone?"
"What do you mean by 'for her own good'? You sound so righteous. With a childhood friend like you, it's no wonder she did something bad, haha..."
The heroine was not a good person to begin with. Now she is like this, either to get rid of the crime or to get the endorsement of Wiky.
It's funny, does she really look so easy to fool and bully?
Tian Liwei's expression changed again and again, and she cursed the person who was causing trouble for her dozens of times in her heart.
She had clearly planned everything out and could clear herself of suspicion immediately, so she wasn't afraid even if the surveillance video was retrieved.
"Hahaha, you're absolutely right. Although I don't like you, I certainly dislike Tian Liwei, this hypocritical woman, even more."
"Yes, I did change the painting, but if you really wanted to change it back, why would you be so nervous about taking the wrong one? I put it first in the corridor."
"The distance between each one was so large, I was nervous and didn't put it in the right place. I could tell the problem with it just by looking at it."
"Tian Liwei, Tian Liwei, you're always so self-righteous. Unfortunately, someone doesn't buy your tricks this time."
"I guess this is just a plan to set us up to fight each other, so you can finally reap the benefits. Honestly, after all these years, I've realized I've never seen through you."
Xin Jiaqi couldn't help laughing. The shrill voice contained an indescribable sense of despair, joy, and relief.
It was as if she had seen things clearly and had let them go completely. No matter how things got messed up, she didn't care.
"Jiaqi, how can you say that? We grew up together, you..."
Tian Liwei's body was staggering. The sadness and helplessness caused by being accused by her best friend made her feel like she couldn't support herself and might collapse at any time.
His face looked even more painful, but he tried hard not to show it.
I give this performance 101 points, and I'm not afraid of her being proud.
She is worthy of being a movie queen. Her acting skills come to her effortlessly and naturally.
It's a pity that she won't have another chance to act, because... she won't give it to her (*/ω╲*)
Xin Jiaqi snorted coldly and said impatiently, "Tian Liwei, you are disgusting, aren't you? I have already admitted it and we have already broken up. Why are you pretending to be so hypocritical?"
"Even if you don't find it disgusting, I do. Okay?"
Anyway, she knew that what was waiting for her was nothing more than a ban. She became indifferent and thought that it was time for the prosperity of the entertainment industry to end in her life.
Since when did her eyes only show jealousy and her heart is filled with calculations?
She couldn't even remember it, huh...how sad.
"You can do whatever you want with me, just don't endanger my family."
"Mr. Lou, Xunmi, please let Jiaqi go. She just lost her mind for a moment. Since she didn't do anything too bad, please forgive her this time."
Tian Liwei tried hard to keep a straight face, took a step forward, and begged the two people on the sofa with tears in her eyes.
If you don’t know, you would really think that the two of them have a very good relationship.
Even the people who were watching this scene couldn't help but think that what they just saw was an illusion. The other person had already said it so clearly, yet they still had to go closer.
Is this sincere, or... do you have an ulterior motive?
Xin Jiaqi didn't even want to roll her eyes, she thought it was so beautiful. She was so uncooperative in the acting, but she was still so dedicated to her job. She must be sick.
Xunmi and Lou Xiao were also speechless. Compared to Tian Liwei, they were more inclined to Xin Jiaqi.
At least Xin Jiaqi is relatively stupid o(╯□╰)o He is straightforward and doesn't play any tricks on you. He is very frank.
The scene fell into a strange awkwardness again, and even Tian Liwei, who was still trying to clear herself, noticed it.
She bit her lips tightly, her heart churning violently. What went wrong? She had clearly calculated everything.
"Okay, stop acting. Here's the video. You'll know after watching it." Lou Xiao waved his hand to stop Tian Liwei who was about to say something.
His tone was full of disgust, as if he was facing some giant bacteria.
Tian Liwei silently swallowed the words in her mouth and lowered her eyes to hide the resentment in them.
She was not satisfied with how nothing had changed after doing it all over again.
The agent took the thing sent by the technical department and handed it to Lin Zhi. Lin Zhi did not hesitate and directly inserted it into the player, waiting for the video inside to be exported.
"Okay." He turned the screen to face everyone, and a clear picture emerged.
It was exactly as Tian Liwei and Xin Jiaqi's paparazzi had said, at 10:45, Tian Liwei came in.
After going upstairs, the video of this scene became still, and another scene began to move.
There was a neat row of Mona Lisa paintings hanging in the corridor on the second floor. She stood there for a while and then went downstairs.
When passing by the sofa, he pondered for a moment, walked over, turned the painting over and looked at it, then left.
At six minutes past eleven, Xin Jiaqi came in, went upstairs to get a painting, and came down to change it.
The surveillance camera upstairs showed that she was indeed nervous and the painting was placed crookedly, also in the first one.
At 11:20, Tian Liwei appeared again. She frowned when she saw the painting on the sofa, and immediately went upstairs to take a look. Then she took the painting in the second position and straightened the crooked painting in the first position.
He went down and replaced the painting, and carefully carried it back, obviously remembering how the painting was placed.
The scene then remained static, with no one entering until the bonfire ended and they appeared together.
Only here does it become truly clear.
Both of them moved the pictures. Xin Jiaqi did not lie, but Tian Liwei's behavior made people think deeply.
I had clearly seen the painting before, and I looked at it so carefully, so how could I not notice that it was different from the others?
Especially when she first started, why did she go to the second floor specifically to look at those paintings?
When changing the painting, it seemed that he also tidied up the crooked painting. Was this a coincidence or intentional?
"So, what else do you have to explain now?" Xunmi leaned on Lou Xiao's shoulder, narrowed her blue eyes, and spoke with a smile.
Like a cat that just wants to be petted, it slightly shows its little paws because it is not served satisfactorily, but because it is too small, it looks soft and harmless.
"I...I was just curious. I was still in a state of shock and confusion at the time, so I didn't notice the right one."
Tian Liwei pretended to be calm. Anyway, without the footage at the front door, they had no way of knowing whether she had seen Xin Jiaqi change the painting with her own eyes.
