Chapter 118: The Truth
Li MO led the car into a narrow road.
When the car drove in, he turned around his car and blocked the car’s path.
They were being followed by a very inconspicuous old black car.
The black car was stuck in the corner and could not move forward or backward. It could only stop.
Li MO and Lin Shanchu got off the car together.
“Get out.” Li MO walked over and knocked on the window.
There was no movement coming from the person in the car.
Li MO was impatient. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to step forward.
At this moment, the car door was opened by someone inside.
A thin man got out of the car.
His hair was a little long, and the ends of his hair almost covered his eyes. The black stubble on his chin made him look a little depressing.
“Who are you? Why are you following us?” Li MO asked loudly.
The man did not answer Li Mo’s question.
Instead, he looked at Lin Shan Chu.
“You’re Qi Cheng.” Lin Shanchu’s clear eyes narrowed.
Li MO sized up Qi Cheng in surprise.
Lin Shanchu had shown him Qi Cheng’s picture before.
He really couldn’t associate this disheveled man in front of him with the high-spirited Qi Cheng in the picture.
Qi Cheng looked at Lin Shanchu’s face in a daze.
After a while, he nodded slowly.
“Since you’re here, let’s find a place to sit down and chat.” Qi Cheng still shook his head.
Seeing this, Li MO frowned and was about to step forward.
People like Qi Cheng who didn’t cooperate even when they came to their doorstep would be obedient after a beating.
Lin Shanchu sensed what Li MO was about to do and reached out to stop him.
She shot him a calm look. “He wants to talk to me in private.”
After saying that, Lin Shanchu got into Qi Cheng’s car.
Li MO was speechless.
Qi Cheng did not say a word the entire time.
How did Ms. Lin know that he wanted to talk to her alone?
Qi Cheng followed Lin Shanchu into the car.
The car door closed and the window was shut tightly.
The people outside could not hear what the people in the car were saying.
Li MO craned his neck and looked through the windshield.
He could only see Lin Shanchu and Qi Cheng sitting side by side. He couldn’t see their expressions clearly, let alone hear their voices.
Meanwhile, inside the compartment.
“Is Jing Ming’s death related to Lu Shiyuan?” Lin Shanchu asked straightforwardly.
“What do you think?” Qi Cheng’s pupils shook a little.
Lin Shanchu’s eyes twitched slightly, and her aura became fierce.
‘Qi Cheng, did you come to look for me just to play mind games with me?”
“You are Lu Shiyuan’s fiancée. I’m not sure if I can trust you.”
Lin Shanchu laughed.
Her smile was as gentle as that of a young lady from a wealthy family.
However, the next second, what she said made Qi Cheng’s expression change drastically.
“Do you think that Jing Ming’s suicide back then had anything to do with your indecisiveness and indifference? ”
Qi Cheng’s face turned pale.
His entire body started to tremble violently as if he was stabbed in the jugular.
His eyes were filled with regret and pain.
Qi Cheng really knew something.
Feeling a little excited, Lin Shanchu reached out to grab Qi Cheng’s arm. “You used to be close to Jing Ming, so you must know the truth! Do you have any evidence that can prove that Lu Shiyuan is related to Jing Ming’s death?”
Qi Cheng’s expression was painful and dull.
Lin Shanchu snapped, “Speak up, Qi Cheng!
“If you didn’t do anything to help Jing Ming out back then, now is your chance to make up for your mistake!
“If you miss this opportunity, you can only watch Lu Shiyuan get away with it once and for all!”
Qi Cheng seemed to have been persuaded by Lin Shanchu.
He struggled to move his lips. “I…”
He only said one word, but he looked like he couldn’t continue speaking anymore. Instead, he took out his phone and handed it to Lin Shanchu.
“There are two videos here. Take a look for yourself.”
The first video was obviously secretly recorded.
The camera shook violently, but the conversation between the man and woman in the video was unusually clear.
“Brother Shiyuan, do I have no hope of getting the female lead of ‘Cold Hut’?” “Don’t worry, I’ll think of a way.”
“I really envy Jing Ming. I heard that the director of ‘Cold Hut’ really likes him..
At this point, the camera swept to the woman’s face.
It was Tang Qidai.
Lin Shanchu had already recognized Tang Qidai’s voice from the start.
The camera only captured Tang Qidai’s face to confirm that the person who spoke was indeed her.
However…
“Is this related to Tang Qidai? ” Lin Shanchu asked Qi Cheng.
Qi Cheng pursed his lips tightly without saying anything. He gestured for her to continue watching.
The video was very short and ended there.
Lin Shanchu continued watching the second video.
The second video was in a private room.
There were leftovers on the table, and the background was noisy.
“Jing Ming is already drunk. We still have work tomorrow, so I’ll take him home first.” The one who spoke was Qi Cheng.
Another drunken male voice said, “How is he already drunk? I think Jing Ming is still very sober. Let’s continue this party in another KTV.”
The camera swept across the man who spoke.
It was a middle-aged man with a big belly.
His hands kept roaming up and down Jing Ming’s body, who was clearly disoriented and in a haze.
Jing Ming was so drunk that he could barely stand. His voice was filled with uneasiness. “Brother Qi…”
“Qi Cheng, go back first.” It was Lu Shiyuan’s voice.
“President Lu…” Qi Cheng sounded a little flustered.
‘l’nen, a bodyguard walked m.
He escorted Qi Cheng out of the room.
When Qi Cheng was escorted to the door, the director’s final sentences came from the room.
“President Lu, don’t worry. The female lead of ‘Cold Hut’…” Bam!
His unfinished words were silenced by the closed door.
The video ended here.
Lin Shanchu clutched the phone.
After a long silence, she turned to look at Qi Cheng.
“Lu Shiyuan sold Jing Ming to the director of ‘Cold Hut’ in exchange for Tang Qidai’s resources, right?” she asked.
Qi Cheng nodded.
Lin Shanchu sneered.
Lu Shiyuan had always been very capable.
She knew that the whole time.
However, she did not expect that after Lu Shiyuan took over the Lu Corporation, he would still do such a disgusting thing.
“When Jing Ming signed the contract with the company, even the social activities he had to attend were included in the contract. Jing Ming has always been very cooperative and worked hard to improve himself…”
Qi Cheng seemed to be unable to continue. His eyes started becoming red.
“Actually, this kind of thing is not uncommon in the entertainment industry. After the incident, Jing Ming was depressed for a period of time. Lu Shiyuan also talked to him privately before he joined the production crew of ‘Cold Hut’.
“Tang Qidai’s acting skills were terrible, so the filming of ‘Cold Hut’ didn’t go well. The company also arranged for me to take care of a newcomer, so I didn’t have much time to care about Jing Ming…”
“It was until one day when Jing Ming left the production crew to look for me. He told me that Lu Shiyuan had used him in exchange for Tang Qidai’s resources. He thought that I didn’t know about it, and even said that he wanted to cancel the contract with the Lu Corporation..
Qi Cheng hugged his head in pain. His voice started choking up, and his voice was so hoarse that he could barely squeeze out a sound.
The outcome was obvious.
“But you didn’t help him.” Lin Shanchu looked at Qi Cheng coldly..
