âYes. I have proof. I had a check-up in another hospital, which was recorded. It proves that I am telling the truth.â
Li Rongrong said something after that, but Su Qingsang was not very interested anymore.
She turned off the video and swiped up from the bottom. The tone of the comments on the Internet had changed again.
Those who had condemned her the most yesterday were silent, while those who hadnât believed Li Rongrong were being vocal.The most popular topic was that Su Qingsang had been lied about, and no one condemned her now. Occasionally one or two trolls came out to question the authenticity of Rongrongâs statement but they were slapped in the face. After all, Li Rongrong herself had admitted it. There was nothing to doubt.
A crisis that had almost affected Su Qingsangâs entire career had been resolved dramatically.
Su Qingsang had a strange feeling, like she was playing house.
âIs that all?â
âWhat else would there be?â
Huo Jinyaoâs voice responded and Su Qingsang looked up at him.
Yesterday, he had told her not to worry. He had been correct.
Huo Jinyao, he must have already known what was going to happen, she thought.
âDid you do it?â
âWhat?â
âDid you make her admit it?â
Huo Jinyao smiled brightly and said, âWhy? Arenât you happy?â
It was not a matter of being happy or not. This was too weird. âShe did it because you made her? Is it that simple?â
âIt is that simple. Anything else?â
âNo. I mean...how did you do it?â
âDidnât you hear her?â
âWhat?â
âShe said the hospital she went to had her medical record.â
âShe was telling the truth?â Su Qingsang was confounded for a moment. She thought Li Rongrong had just said it casually.
âYeah.â Huo Jinyao nodded and took Su Qingsangâs hand. âIn my opinion, even a vicious tiger will not eat its own cubs. A woman, especially a mother, however ruthless, will not lose her child that easily.â
Li Rongrongâs child had been more than four months old. Since she had wanted to marry Wei Lenan, she could have gotten more benefits if she had given birth to the baby.
It was stupid to use a child as a tool to frame Su Qingsang. That made him think that Li Rongrong had not wanted to use the child in the first place.
Then, he sent someone to check it out, which made it much easier. They found out which hospital had Li Rongrongâs record, and then tried to get it. Of course, they needed some connections. Lee Junsheng was the new mayor of Lin City. He had helped them get the records easily.
After getting the records, which was the first step, Yang Wenchang, along with a colleague of the technical group, had been busy for most of the day . He had been checking her records and hacking into her computer, which wasnât too difficult for them. Then, things became much simpler. She must have hidden some unpresentable secrets in her computer, being the scheming woman that she was.
They took these to her and named their conditions. The rest was easy.
Li Rongrong could refuse but, if she did, Huo Jinyao had asked someone to expose what he had found. That would have been completely different.
She was not a fool and it was very clear that she had lost control of the situation. Her reputation would be ruined if they gave what they had found to the press. To minimize the impact, she would rather admit her mistake first than let them destroy her.
Li Rongrong was malicious, but she was also self-aware. It was this that Huo Jinyao used to make her come forward and admit her lie.
âHow did you know?â
Su Qingsang looked at him suspiciously. How could this man know everything?
