Instead of stating his thoughts directly, Shang Yan said, "I don't know either. Do you remember the video I showed you earlier? I made some changes and asked Sister Hong to send it to Gu Jin, and then arranged to meet her here."
"What changes?"
Shang Yan played the video for Yu Sheng.
After watching the video, Yu Sheng noticed that Shang Yan had changed the original video's portrayal of a wealthy young man who hit someone and ran away to a wealthy young lady, and Old Zhang's last line, "This can't be said, you're paid to do the dirty work," to "Miss Gu Jin of the Gu family!"
Shang Yan changed it like this, clearly to set a trap for Gu Jin.
In other words—
If Gu Jin was the one who caused the accident and fled the scene, she would definitely come to see Sister Hong!
Is it her?
Was it Xiao Cheng who hit her and caused her to become a vegetable?
As Yu Sheng was thinking this, the door to the next room was pushed open, and Gu Jin walked in with a gloomy face, looking at Sister Hong and asking, "Where did you get that video?"
Sister Hong laughed and said, "Of course I took the picture."
Gu Jin raised an eyebrow: "Since you took these photos, why didn't you contact me ten years ago, but are you contacting me now?"
Hongjie calmly followed the lines Shang Yan had given her, saying, "Because I only recently discovered this video myself."
Gu Jin scoffed: "You think I believe that?"
Sister Hong, fiddling with her nails, said sheepishly, "Whether you believe it or not is your business. The reason I invited you here is to tell you that I want 1 billion yuan. Either send me the money, or I'll release this video."
Gu Jin said indifferently, "What good will it do if you make it public? The statute of limitations has long expired."
"The statute of limitations has expired, but if everyone finds out that Miss Gu committed a hit-and-run ten years ago, what kind of impact do you think it would have on your family?"
Sister Hong's words, which were so cryptic, infuriated Gu Jin, who raised her hand to slap her. But Sister Hong grabbed her wrist, saying, "If I don't collect 1 billion within three days, you can expect the video to be exposed!"
Sister Hong left after saying those words.
In Yu Sheng's opinion, the conversation between Sister Hong and Gu Jin just now has proven that Gu Jin is the one who caused the accident and fled the scene ten years ago!
How could she remain calm when the murderer was right in front of her?
When Yu Sheng tried to rush out to find Gu Jin, Shang Yan stopped her.
With red eyes, Yu Sheng said, "What are you doing? Let me go."
"Calm down first."
"Calm down? The executioner who killed Xiao Cheng is right next door, how can you expect me to calm down?" Overwhelmed with emotion and anger, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
After hesitating for a moment, Shang Yan said, "She might... not be the real murderer."
Yu Sheng was stunned. "What do you mean?"
Shang Yan didn't speak, but looked at Gu Jin.
Yu Sheng also looked over.
Seeing her furiously dial Gu Ye's number: "Come to my house, now, immediately!!"
After Gu Jin finished speaking, she hung up the phone and left the private room.
As Shang Yan drove Yu Sheng behind Gu Jin, Yu Sheng asked, "Brother, what did you mean when you said Gu Jin wasn't the real murderer?"
Shang Yan glanced at Yu Sheng, whose face was deathly pale and whose eyelids were drooping, and said, "You should have guessed what I mean."
Yu Sheng's pupils contracted sharply, the fear threatening to engulf her completely. She said, "No, it can't be... it can't be him..."
How could Shang Yan not understand Yu Sheng's fear?
For her, Gu was a ray of light that once shone into her dark world, her salvation!
so--
Even though he betrayed her emotionally, she was still grateful for his companionship during her most helpless and painful period.
Now you tell her that all the pain she's suffered was caused by the person she's most grateful to. How can she accept that?
This is no longer just pain, but a complete upheaval of perception!
How can she trust others in the future? Trust the world? Trust herself?
Shang Yan gripped the steering wheel tightly, veins bulging, and he had an urge to kill Gu Ye!
Based on the evidence he had, it was almost certain that Gu was the hit-and-run driver, but he still hoped it wasn't him. He didn't want Yu Sheng to live the rest of her life in distrust of the world.
Shang Yan gripped Yu Sheng's cold, trembling hand tightly, and said in a reassuring tone, "I also think... it couldn't be him... Don't overthink it, you'll find out soon..."
Shang Yan followed Gu Jin all the way to her residential area and parked his car in a secluded spot outside her villa.
A short while later, a Porsche stopped outside her villa, and a man got out of the car and strode into the villa.
He is none other than Gu Ye!
As soon as Gu Ye appeared, he attracted all of Yu Sheng's attention.
As she stared intently at him, Shang Yan handed her a Bluetooth earphone.
She looked at Shang Yan in confusion, and Shang Yan said, "I had someone install a listening device on Gu Jin's phone."
Yu Sheng didn't ask any questions, took the earphones and put them on. Gu Ye's voice came through: "Sis, why did you call me here in such a hurry?"
Inside the villa, Gu Jin saw that Gu Ye was as lazy as ever, which made her furious. She grabbed a cushion and threw it at him. Gu Ye dodged it and frowned at Gu Jin: "Why are you taking your anger out on me?"
Gu Jin roared, "My family and I are about to be the target of everyone's anger because of you, and you actually ask me why I'm angry?"
Gu Jin looked puzzled: "What did I do?"
Gu Jin raised her hand and slammed her phone onto the table with a 'thud'. "See for yourself."
Gu walked over and frowned after seeing the video.
Yu Sheng recognized the woman in the video as Sister Hong, and he naturally recognized her as well.
He never expected that Sister Hong was having an affair with Zhang Xiangdong.
However, that's not important.
The important question is—who sent the video to Gu Jin?
