Zhuang Jiayi seemed to be deep in thought; she had never imagined that things could be solved in this way.
"I'd like to ask you a question," Zhuang Jiayi said earnestly.
"you say?"
"If there are two girls, and one falls into the water by accident, but is rescued and then falsely accuses the other of pushing her in, even though that person clearly didn't, how should this situation be resolved?"
“That person didn’t say anything beforehand, and no one expected her to say that. After the incident, her situation was more awkward than that of the girl now.”
"That makes things much easier to solve."
This is even more sophisticated than slapping someone.
"The person who fell into the water must have harbored ill intentions towards the person she wanted to frame before falling in. Any dangerous area, such as a pond, swimming pool, beach, cliff, or deep pit, could become a potential location for a framing."
"If the two wanted to talk, why didn't they go to the pond to enjoy the cold wind? It's obvious they had ill intentions. So we should have been on guard from the beginning."
"If that person falls into the water silently by themselves, don't panic, jump in after them."
"The person who fell into the water was trying to show their vulnerability and helplessness, and might not have been on guard, but the person who jumped in after them was definitely on guard. After jumping in, they grabbed the person's head and pushed it underwater."
“Since she’s going to do something like this, there must be no one around. You can’t really kill her. Let her get some fresh air and call for help. Once someone comes, quickly lie back and move her onto yourself.”
“When a person is dying, they have a survival instinct. When they struggle, they will definitely push you underwater. The person underwater just needs to hold their breath. After they come up, they cough a few times and then make false accusations. Everyone saw what happened. No matter how she explains, it's useless. People just believe what they see.”
Zhuang Jiayi looked at the two who were still arguing, and said thoughtfully, "So what happened before is not important. Since you said it, I will make it a fact."
Zhuang Jiayi suddenly understood, "No wonder Brother Ji Ze likes you."
A person who can say such things is not a good person, but they are definitely not a bad person either.
People sometimes do these things simply to protect themselves.
Lin Wei looked at Zhuang Jiayi and asked with interest, "So, why are you asking me this? Could it be that someone would dare to push you into the pond? That shouldn't be the case."
"Intrigues run deep in wealthy families; anything can happen. Anyway, thank you for your answer."
Lin Wei had no idea that the question she had casually answered out of curiosity was actually put into practice by Zhuang Jiayi that very night.
The incident escalated to a huge extent—
To everyone's surprise.
Of course, that's a story for another time.
-
Lin Wei's dress was beautiful, but it wasn't particularly eye-catching among a group of women.
Compared to Li Xinyuan's dress, it paled in comparison.
Looking at the wedding dress, Lin Wei sincerely praised it, "It's so beautiful."
"If you want to wear a more beautiful wedding dress, Brother Ji Ze won't make you feel wronged."
"I know that, but we haven't graduated yet, so we're still a long way from getting married."
"What's the big deal?" Zhuang Jiayi said casually. "Li Xinyuan is only 18 years old. She didn't even get into university last year. It was only because her father donated a teaching building to the school that she was able to get in."
Lin Wei was shocked.
Sure enough, the novel is based on reality; some people are indeed mocking Lou Dushu.
But she wouldn't praise her, saying, "You're so stupid, you can't even get into a university, what a waste of such good qualities."
The ceremony was simple: after exchanging rings, they sat down for a meal, ate briefly, and then went their separate ways.
Shen Jize hadn't been back to Hong Kong for a long time, and he drank a bit too much at noon. When he got back, he was leaning on her, completely dazed.
Lin Wei wasn't much better off than him. Champagne isn't very strong, but she drank a lot of it.
Both of them were helped upstairs by the driver.
The driver even threw her into Shen Jize's room and left.
Lin Wei was drowsy and didn't want to wake up, so she leaned against Shen Jize and fell asleep.
-
The two were woken up by a series of phone calls.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already dark.
When Shen Jize saw that it was his room and Lin Wei was lying next to him, fully clothed and asleep, he was still a little confused and subconsciously answered the phone.
"Ji Ze, something happened to my sister."
Shen Jize rubbed his temples and quickly asked, "What happened?"
Zhuang Zhihao briefly recounted the cause and effect of the matter.
The incident occurred after dinner, when Zhuang Jiayi got into an argument with her illegitimate younger sister who had been brought home.
The two had never gotten along. Zhuang Jiayi was stubborn and always suffered losses, and she would always be scolded by her father.
But this time, for some reason, perhaps because the argument got too heated, the illegitimate daughter actually pushed her into the water and tried to drown her. Zhuang Jiayi still hasn't woken up.
What's worse, the illegitimate daughter's younger sister still denies it, crying and claiming that she didn't do it.
“The house is a mess, and I’m worried that someone might take advantage of the chaos to hurt Jia Yi… We know Jia Yi’s personality; she wouldn’t do such a thing. It’s that illegitimate daughter who would do it.”
"I'm coming right now," Shen Jize immediately agreed.
The moment the call ended, I saw Lin Wei, who was already awake but whose pupils were dilated.
"What's wrong? Weiwei, did I wake you up? I have to go out for a bit. Are you hungry? I'll have someone take you to eat."
"Wait a minute, don't go yet. What did you just say? Jiayi is in trouble."
The landline was very loud, and Lin Wei had already heard most of it, but she still couldn't quite believe her ears.
"I'll go with you, I'll go with you."
The two quickly changed out of their midday clothes and went straight to the hospital after going downstairs.
At the entrance of the VIP ward, as soon as they arrived, they saw a group of people guarding the door, and a girl crying and complaining about her grievances, but no one listened to her.
When Zhuang Zhihao saw that it was Shen Jize and Lin Wei coming over, he quickly went to greet them.
"What's wrong? Is Jiayi alright?"
Lin Wei was the first to speak.
"Jiayi is still dizzy from choking on water. The doctor took her temperature and she still has a fever. She also vomited twice during the treatment."
"Why are there so many people outside?"
"Let them out, they're crying and making a scene." Zhuang Zhihao glanced at the people outside the door, his eyes filled with impatience.
"Is there anyone still inside? I'd like to go in and see Jiayi, is that alright?"
Trusting Shen Jize, Zhuang Zhihao did not refuse and immediately opened the door to let Lin Wei in.
But after Lin Wei went in, Zhuang's mother objected.
"Zhihao, who is that person? How can you just let someone in? I'm Jiayi's mother, and you won't even let me in."
"Mom, speak properly. The woman who went in is Ji Ze's girlfriend. She's not someone you can insult at will."
Zhuang's mother glanced at Shen Jize beside her, shrank back slightly, and immediately lowered her voice.
“I am Jiayi’s mother. How can you let an outsider in instead of me?”
