Yu Gangan looked at the men in confusion. She didn’t quite understand what they were saying. She glanced at Lu Xuechen, then looked at Fang Zhihan, “What are you guys talking about? What do you mean by, ‘as long as it’s of use’?”
On the side, Fang Zhihan’s gaze was dull as he gently opened his mouth, “Mr. Lu is well connected. He saw your video and has decided to help you resolve this matter.”
Yu Gangan was both surprised and pleased as she turned to Lu Xuechen gratefully, “Really? Then I’ll have to thank you for helping me expose this video.”
Lu Xuechen opened his mouth. His face, that was more enchanting than a woman’s, did not look pleased as he said coldly, “Simply exposing this video won’t do anything.”
“Aren’t we currently in the internet age? This video should be able to prove my innocence.”
“But, the internet age allows people to control public opinion.”
That was true. There were plenty of fake commenters online these days. Qiao Pan’er would never sit around doing nothing. Yu Gangan furrowed her brows as she asked herself, “What can we do, then?”
Fang Zhihan looked at the woman with his dark eyes and flicked her on the forehead, “Since Mr. Lu agreed to help you, he will definitely handle it well.”
[Haha~ Mind games...] Lu Xuechen looked at Fang Zhihan with a cold gaze.
If he and Fang Zhihan weren’t sitting in the car together, if they didn’t notice that Yu Gangan was gone for a while and if Fang Zhihan didn’t go to look for her, he would have honestly thought that Fang Zhihan planned everything beforehand.
[Gangan is certainly lucky.]
[But, meeting Fang Zhihan is the biggest misfortune of her life.]
[This man is sinister, inside and out. Gangan’s just an ingredient in his hands; like a slow-boiling frog 1 . By the time she realizes she can’t escape from his grasp, she would have already been cooked alive by the heat of his palms.]
[He’s just waiting patiently for his meal.]
Yu Gangan watched as Lu Xuechen frowned and thought he didn’t want to help, so she smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Lu is a busy person, I think it’s best if I handle it myself.”
In reality, Lu Xuechen was actually willing to help Yu Gangan; he was simply unhappy that he had lost to Fang Zhihan.
So, when he saw Yu Gangan acting distant, he immediately said, “I’m not busy. This is just a small matter.”
“It’s OK, it’s too bothersome for you,” Yu Gangan said, assuming that the man was just being polite.
“No...”
An amused smile appeared on Fang Zhihan’s face. Just as Lu Xuechen was about to respond, he noticed this smile and suddenly shut up.
Something wasn’t right.
Why did it feel like these two were working together to trap him?
At that time, Fang Zhihan said to Yu Gangan, “He’s too afraid to accept this responsibility because he’s afraid that he won’t be able to handle it well and would be too ashamed to show his face around you again.”
Lu Xuechen was furious.
He let out two loud laughs and said, “Who am I? I am Lu Xuechen. Gangan, you can leave this small matter in my hands.”
But, as soon as he finished talking, he felt the urge to slap himself dead.
He knew that these two were using reverse psychology, yet he fell for their trick anyway.
They were a poisonous couple...
...
After Yu Gangan returned to her clinic, she sat down on the sofa and used her phone to go online.
The comments online were still sympathizing with Zhu Si and his family. They were also calling Yu Gangan inhumane, immoral and a murderer who deserved to go to the depths of hell.
When she saw the nasty attacks, Yu Gangan couldn’t help but feel a little upset by it.
How could a person not feel upset after seeing such insulting words?
At that moment, she was reminded of a film that she watched a long time ago: in the film, the female lead simply didn’t offer her seat to an old person on the public bus and ended up being beaten up and somehow framed as a mistress. The internet started scolding her, and to fuel the public’s anger, a television reporter held onto her apology video and decided not to broadcast it. In the end, the female lead was forced to death.
