Chapter 486 Confrontation
Su Jiaojiao had just finished class and received a call from Yu Tian. She made tea and waited for her at home, but she didn't expect Qin Xiuming to come.
"We didn't come here together. We met downstairs." Yu Tian didn't expect Qin Xiuming to follow her in so shamelessly. As soon as she entered the room, she explained to Su Jiaojiao, "I have nothing to talk about with this guy."
"Then let's have some tea together!" Su Jiaojiao didn't welcome Qin Xiuming either, but it was not easy to kick him out, so she had to get him a teacup as well. It felt weird facing Qin Xiuming and Yu Tian at the same time.
Qin Xiuming's attitude was okay. He said to Yu Tian seriously, "I know you don't want to see me, but things are not what you think. I feel I need to explain it to you clearly."
"If you hadn't met me today, would you not have to explain?" Yu Tian asked back.
"I called you and you hung up. If I go to your house to explain, are you sure you can let me in?" Qin Xiuming also asked Yu Tian.
"You're still like this, always able to shift the blame onto others." Yu Tian snorted coldly, "Okay, since we have a witness today, then explain to us how we wronged you."
Su Jiaojiao looked at the two of them and turned off the TV directly.
The living room suddenly became quiet.
"My father and Tang Youxin worked together in Guangzhou. You know, they invested in film and television together. Although they lost money, that was an accident, not a problem with their vision. The TV show was finally aired, and we also recovered some of the losses, including your uncle." Qin Xiuming had obviously been thinking about these things, and he pondered, "It was Tang Youxin who found my father and said that he couldn't go back to explain the losses to his wife. He begged my father to help him conceal it, saying that the money he lost was borrowed by my father, and he even made my father write a fake IOU."
"My father had lost money investing in film and television, and we felt a mutual sympathy. To help him, I did as he asked. I wrote him a fake IOU for two million yuan and even guaranteed a loan for him. Tang Youxin used his house in Yangcheng as collateral."
Su Jiaojiao was shocked when she heard this.
Lu Jiaping has traveled a lot, but he can still do such a thing.
Are there fake IOUs?
Can guarantees be provided casually?
"Humph, just make it up!" Yu Tian sneered and turned to glare at Qin Xiuming. "Even if what you said is true, you can cheat my uncle?"
"Don't get excited. Just listen to me." Qin Xiuming glanced at Su Jiaojiao and continued, "Because my dad and Tang Youxin are broke, we wanted to start some brick-and-mortar business. Tang Youxin heard that woodcarvings are very popular overseas, and he happened to have a friend who owned a woodcarving company back home, so he wanted my dad to join him in this business."
"Lu Jingming, I don't believe a single punctuation mark in what you said. Your father and Tang Youxin are doing this business together. I tell you, they are just trying to get something for nothing. They are working together to cheat my uncle out of his money." Yu Tian interrupted him, emotionally speaking, "You don't need to say the rest. What you say will only favor your father. If he is innocent, then there are innocent people everywhere."
"Yu Tian, can you please listen carefully to what I have to say?" Qin Xiuming looked at her incredulously. "I advise you to change your temper and not be so irritable. Being irritable won't solve the problem."
"Then what do you want from me?" Yu Tian was furious. "I should be calm and gentle to you. Do you deserve it?"
"Whether I am worthy or not is another matter, but you must have an attitude to solve the problem!" Qin Xiuming looked at his ex-girlfriend and felt that she was disgusting. Fortunately, he had nothing to do with her. If there was anything, he would not dare to see her.
"What problem can you solve?" Yu Tian said, as if she had just heard a joke. "Your uncle and your eldest brother can't solve a problem, and you dare say you can solve it?"
"Stop arguing and just listen to him finish his words!" Su Jiaojiao's head was buzzing with the quarrel between the two. If she had known earlier, she would have asked Yu Tian out. In comparison, the conflict between her and Marco Bo was nothing.
"I admit, my father just wanted to make some money, but he didn't intend to cheat your uncle out of nothing. They were all deceived by Tang Youxin." Qin Xiuming finally met Yu Tian and had to tell her the story. "Tang Youxin negotiated those handicrafts at a very low price. Because he was short of money, he didn't pay for them. He promised to settle the payment with his friend after the goods were sold."
"Then he started spreading false information, saying that foreign handicrafts had skyrocketed in price. He asked my father to help promote them, promising to give him a 10% commission. My father believed it and contacted your uncle. You know my mother was also involved, and she also lost money."
"Do you dare to say that your father didn't know this was a scam?" Yu Tian didn't believe it at all. "If your father really didn't know, why didn't he sue Tang Youxin? He's clearly guilty."
"He initially thought it was the plummeting prices of handicrafts, and didn't realize it was Tang Youxin's scheme. He only found out after your family reported it to the police and the court investigated and collected evidence."
"If that's the case, why did he run away?" Yu Tian questioned him. "If he was innocent, he could have joined the prosecution or reported Tang Youxin. Why did he run away?"
"He just wants to prove his innocence." Qin Xiuming stood up and walked out. "One day, you will understand."
After Qin Xiuming left, Yu Tian asked Su Jiaojiao, "Do you believe what he said?"
"Half-believing, half-doubting." Su Jiaojiao also understood. "What Qin Xiuming said was told to him by Lu Jiaping, so this is probably what happened. As for what other interests Lu Jiaping and Tang Youxin have in common, only they two know."
There are too many suspicious points in the whole incident.
But she has a lot of things to do and doesn't want to waste time and energy on other people's affairs, which is too brain-intensive.
Besides, Lu Jiaping is Lu Jingyou's second uncle after all, so it is not easy for her to stand on Yu Tian's side. She can only remain neutral.
"Anyway, I don't believe it at all." Yu Tian hated Lu Jiaping and his son with a vengeance. "Their family has always been ruthless and won't cry until they see the coffin. It wasn't until Tang Youxin was arrested and Lu Jiaping inexplicably disappeared that they became anxious. First, Lu Jiahe went to talk to my uncle, and after he was scolded and sent away by my uncle, Lu Jingyou went to talk to my uncle again..."
Hearing Yu Tian mention Lu Jingyou, Su Jiaojiao raised her eyelids: "So, how did Lu Jingyou talk with Uncle Yu?"
After Mr. Lu was discharged from the hospital, Lu Jingyou returned to the suburbs of Beijing.
Although he contacted her every day, she had never heard him mention this matter.
