Although Zhang Ming was stunned by what Fu Xiuhan said, he did not lose his mind. He originally thought that it was a small matter of settling accounts with Shi Qian, which would only take a few words, but he did not expect it to become so complicated.
Zhang Ming had considered retaliating in private, but he wasn't satisfied with that. He would definitely retaliate in private, but he wanted to make Shi Qian pay a greater price. He even wanted to expel Shi Qian from school, so that he could serve as a warning to the others, letting those well-behaved students who had been bullied by him know the consequences of reporting to the teachers if they wanted to seek justice but didn't dare to.
That's why he endured so many days without immediately causing trouble for Shi Qian; he was waiting for this opportunity.
He was going to go to Shi Qian's class in a big way, to make sure all the classmates saw it and spread the word about how serious the consequences were for Shi Qian offending him.
I just didn't expect problems to arise halfway through, and even the so-called evidence in my hand became useless. I also didn't expect Fu Xiuhan to suddenly appear out of nowhere.
The more unfavorable the situation, the more Zhang Ming told himself not to panic. Although Fu Xiuhan was terrifying, he was not unreasonable. So far in the interrogation, Fu Xiuhan had not arbitrarily pushed all the responsibility onto him just because he wanted to stand up for Shi Qian.
As long as you have solid evidence, there's still a chance for things to turn around.
Although there are no surveillance cameras in the backyard of the cafeteria, there must be surveillance cameras on the way here. As long as there are cameras that capture Shi Qian appearing near the backyard, then everything I said today will be proven!
That night, it must have been only him and Shi Qian who went to the backyard, otherwise he wouldn't have ended up lying on the ground all night and only being discovered the next morning.
If the surveillance footage captures the two taking the same route around the same time, even if it doesn't show the backyard, it would still prove that Shi Qian was definitely there as well.
There's only one way in and out of the cafeteria's backyard, so it's impossible for Shi Qian not to be photographed; Zhang Ming is very confident about this.
This is his last trump card; once the surveillance footage is checked, everything will be proven!
He didn't lie! He didn't frame Shi Qian! He is a truly innocent victim!
Thinking of this, Zhang Ming instantly felt more confident. He didn't hesitate to aggravate his wounds and stand tall, as if to prove that he had never wronged Shi Qian.
Zhang Ming's request to check the surveillance footage was entirely expected by Shi Qian. He had already made preparations, as his route that night had completely avoided surveillance cameras, making it impossible for him to have been filmed.
Even if Zhang Ming were to investigate, he could only find traces of himself on that day, not any trace of himself, so he wasn't in a hurry at all.
On the contrary, Fu Xiuhan, who was standing to the side, felt that things were not going well, but he did not show his thoughts on his face. At this critical moment, he could not let anyone see that something was wrong, otherwise Shi Qian would have a hard time clearing his name.
If Shi Qian was indeed photographed going to the cafeteria's backyard, then Fu Xiuhan himself must have been photographed as well.
If that's the case, Fu Xiuhan is willing to call it a date between the two of them. After all, their relationship is what it is. They are the pursuer and the pursued. What's wrong with going out for a walk late at night?
Although he and Shi Qian are not yet officially in a relationship, Fu Xiuhan doesn't care about other people's misunderstandings. He can take this opportunity to hint to Shi Qian that his attitude has softened. If Shi Qian confesses to him again, he should accept her.
That way, the two of them can be together openly and honestly, and Shi Qian won't be gossiped about like she was on the forum.
I will definitely take Shi Qian's hand and walk with him in front of the whole school so that everyone can see clearly that Shi Qian is mine and that Shi Qian's previous pursuit was not in vain, but just a necessary waiting time for our love to come to fruition.
After everyone knows about their relationship with Shi Qian, they definitely won't dare to speak recklessly on the forum anymore, saying bad things about Shi Qian, mocking Shi Qian's aesthetics and taste, or humiliating him for being poor, which is not his fault.
Fu Xiuhan didn't care whether Shi Qian had money or not, because Shi Qian was definitely not as rich as him. He had plenty of money! If Shi Qian wanted it, he could take it all!
If he were to date Shi Qian, Shi Qian would be his first love, whom he had protected and upheld the virtues of a man for all these years. He would definitely treat Shi Qian well and would not let anyone look down on her.
However, there is one more thing to be careful about. Although he is showing affection in front of the whole school, this affection must not be spread outside the campus. He must use his power and connections to silence everyone.
It's not appropriate for his family to know about his relationship with Shi Qian yet, as Fu Xiuhan knows they definitely won't approve of it.
But it doesn't matter. They can keep their relationship secret for now. Once he becomes powerful enough that no one will dare to question his decision, he can openly bring Shi Qian back to the Fu family.
It shouldn't be too long. Fu Xiuhan has great confidence in his abilities. He is sure he can take over the family business quickly, just like his older brother, and make the business bigger and stronger.
In a short time, Fu Xiuhan had already considered his and Shi Qian's future. The suggestion to check the surveillance footage, which had just seemed ominous, now suddenly seemed wonderful.
Fu Xiuhan did not raise any objections, nor did he obstruct the process unreasonably. Seeing that no one had any objections, and that the situation had become tense, the homeroom teacher decided to investigate the surveillance footage, since it was a breakthrough point.
Soon, surveillance footage of several routes along the way to the cafeteria's backyard on the night of the incident was sent over.
Zhang Ming felt a glimmer of hope and squeezed in front of the computer. He wanted to see if Shi Qian could still try to argue like this in the face of solid evidence.
The homeroom teacher sped up the video and quickly spotted Zhang Ming in the surveillance camera. Under the dim light, Zhang Ming looked like a giant, moving trash can, pushing forward along every possible path.
Zhang Ming arrived early. Shi Qian had arranged to meet him at 9 o'clock, but Zhang Ming had his own ulterior motives. He arrived early at 8:30 to familiarize himself with the layout of the cafeteria's backyard so that he could satisfy his lust for Shi Qian later.
Twenty minutes later, apart from Zhang Ming, there was still no sign of anyone else.
Just before 9 o'clock, we finally spotted a figure!
As soon as Zhang Ming saw someone, he immediately tapped the floor with his cane. "I knew it! Shi Qian must be here! The evidence is right here!!"
Shi Qian was surprised that someone was actually filmed. It shouldn't be possible. She knew this road very well and had already avoided the places where she was supposed to avoid the surveillance cameras. There was no way she could have been filmed.
Who could it be that was photographed?
Shi Qian was a little confused. He moved forward two steps from the back to see who this person was.
The man in the surveillance footage was tall and somewhat familiar. Although the view was a bit dark, Shi Qian still recognized the clothes on the man's body. Wasn't that what Fu Xiuhan was dressed like that night?
Fu Xiuhan has been following him this early?
