Chapter 414: Chapter 414 You’re an Idiot_1
Ye Lu hurriedly brought him to Shang Jingchen’s house.
However, Shang Jingchen’s face was gloomy. He told Ye Lu that the surveillance room in the Shang Family’s house had been destroyed by a fire a few days ago.
Ye Lu’s face changed instantly, "A fire? What a coincidence! I’d heard they were planning to bring in an expert to analyze the surveillance footages, but the surveillance room caught fire. Shang Jingchen, isn’t this quite suspicious? Did someone set fire deliberately, scared of getting caught or to destroy any evidence?"
"What are you implying, are you framing me?" Yuan Jiayin retorted immediately.
"The one who set the fire must have a guilty conscience, and must also be staying here, having the best opportunity to set the plan in motion." Ye Lu coldly looked at Shang Jingchen, "Who else could it be if not her?"
Shang Jingchen raised his head and roared, "Enough! Stop framing her."
"What did you say? Have you lost your mind? Who else would set fire if not to avoid truth being unearthed," Ye Lu thought he should seriously consider this.
"The fire was caused by me, not her. I forgot to extinguish my cigarette and left it in the surveillance room, causing the fire."
Ye Lu was speechless. A surveillance room was burned down by a single cigarette butt?
Such incidents have been reported in the news frequently, but realistically, the probability of such an occurrence is quite low, especially under such sensitive circumstances. She absolutely didn’t believe this was an accident.
Yuan Jiayin secretly sneered. She had already bribed a police officer to reveal information to her. From him, she learned that Ye Lu was planning to bring in experts to examine the surveillance.
She would definitely not allow this to happen. So, she created an "accident" when Shang Jingchen entered the surveillance room.
Now, even the surveillance was burnt to ashes. Let’s see what she can find...
"Shang Jingchen, you fool, do you really believe in such coincidences? Think about it, how exactly did you manage to set a surveillance room on fire with a cigarette butt? Was it really an ’accident,’ or did someone make you ’accidentally’ do it?." Ye Lu was infuriated. This Yuan Jiayin was so cunning, yet Shang Jingchen did not suspect her at all.
She was not at the Shang’s house and couldn’t stop anything from happening.
"Ye Lu, stop trying to sow discord. You are playing the thief crying ’stop thief!’ aren’t you? You put on an innocent face as if you want to investigate, but perhaps you want to manipulate someone to do your bidding. Now that the surveillance room is burnt, it may not be a bad thing. At least you cannot tamper with it anymore."
Ye Lu sneered, "I’ll throw your ’thief crying stop thief’ back at you. As the saying goes, ’Heaven’s net is meshed but not even.’ You committed murder, can you wash off the blood on your hands? There’s still a stench of blood. Be careful, Old Sir Shang might come to take his revenge in the dead of night. Also, do you think all evidence has been destroyed with the burning of the surveillance room? Just wait, the experts from the major crime team are not mere investigators that you can bribe."
Ye Lu coldly left with her people.
Yuan Jiayin’s body stiffened.
"What’s wrong with you?" Shang Jingchen turned to look at her, reaching out to hold her hand, only to find it icy cold.
"Ah..." Yuan Jiayin shrieked, instinctively pushing his hand away, but quickly realizing her overreaction, she hastily said, "I have a headache today, and I’m infuriated by that woman’s shamelessness."
A flicker of doubt crossed Shang Jingchen’s eyes.
"Jingchen, let’s go and live at our villa on the outskirts. You stay here every day looking at grandfather’s belongings, it must be heartbreaking. I hope that you can quickly move on from this ordeal. The current situation in the Shang Family is also not good. As the president, you cannot ignore the family business. Grandfather would surely hope for you to recover quickly."
Hearing her caring words, Shang Jingchen fell into deep thought before saying...
