Chapter 398: Chapter 398: The Alluring Aura_1
"We’re aware of that, but according to surveillance, you re-entered the Shang household again."
Ye Lu was dumbfounded, "The surveillance recorded me entering the Shang household during that time?"
"Yes."
"Impossible. After I visited the old man, I left and never returned to the Shang house. There must be something wrong with this video. How could it be at that time?"
Ye Lu was extremely anxious and suddenly slammed the table.
"I get it now, the surveillance footage has been tampered with. The time has been changed."
Yes, it must have been Yuan Jiayin, that damned woman, who secretly altered it. She’s the only one capable enough to tamper with things in the Shang house.
"But we’ve inspected the surveillance and found no issues. There are also no traces of Yuan Jiayin entering or exiting the Shang house on that day."
Ye Lu gritted her teeth. It must be because your technology is inferior, or the person who Yuan Jiayin hired is too skilled.
"Miss Ye, do you have an alibi?"
Ye Lu thought for a moment. After she left that time, she went to Third Young Master Jun’s villa. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. Yes, Feiyu could testify.
But soon, she deflated again.
Shoot, Feiyu can’t possibly testify for her right now. After what she did to Third Young Master Jun, he probably wanted to kill her.
"Regardless, there must be something wrong with this video. I will find the best computer technician to inspect the Shang house. As long as it’s determined that the video has been tampered with, my suspicion will automatically dissolve."
...
Ye Lu became Gu Yan’s fiancée, so she had no choice but to accompany him to various business banquets.
She really didn’t want to go. Lately, she had become too notorious among the upper class, whether it was her relationship with Shang Jingchen, her entanglement with Third Young Master Jun, or Gu Yan’s forced marriage proposal.
In any case, she had become completely infamous, and not in a good way.
She had already prepared herself emotionally for all the criticism that would come her way for being with Gu Yan.
But when they made their appearance at the banquet, she felt like a needle in a haystack under the scrutiny of all those strange eyes and hushed laughter. She felt extremely uncomfortable, as if she had been shot full of holes by their gaze.
"I’m going to the washroom." She rolled her eyes, not wanting to continue being the center of attention for everyone to gawk at like a monkey.
"Go ahead! Once you feel like leaving, I’ll come find you. I’ll try to wrap this up as quickly as possible." Gu Yan understood her feelings and spoke sympathetically.
Ye Lu quickly left, but she couldn’t stay in the washroom forever.
After coming out, she found an inconspicuous corner to hide in, idly playing with her phone out of boredom.
Suddenly, she heard a commotion at the entrance of the banquet hall. She looked up curiously and instantly froze, her previous sense of relief gone.
Because, Third Young Master Jun had appeared at the banquet.
In a pure black suit, from head to toe, he emanated a highly demonic aura.
His handsome face, brimming with masculinity and an air of laziness, gave off a dangerously enchanting gleam. His nonchalant dark, bewitching eyes were filled with arrogance, wickedness, and indifference.
Just like the first night she met him, he was so cynical, so heartless!
A man with such a strong aura could not be ignored when he made an entrance.
Seeing the unrestrained smile on his face, Ye Lu sneered in her heart. That girl claimed he was heartbroken. Heartbroken my foot, she couldn’t see it at all.
A man as cold-hearted as him would live recklessly at all times, without worrying about anyone or anything.
Clearly, his presence changed the atmosphere of the event.
Such a dangerously captivating man always attracted women’s attention, making their hearts race and faces redden. But the icy aura surrounding him kept the girls from getting too close.
