Chapter 521: Exposure of the Truth

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Song Yan was the person who knew the entire truth the best, aside from being the secretary.

His decision to surrender meant that the police already knew all the details.

“Impossible.” However, Shen Yuan still wanted to resist.

She struggled to free her shoulders from the grip of the police on both sides, grabbing Zhou Guo desperately. She hoarsely exclaimed, “Why did Song Yan surrender? Could it be that he did something illegal behind my back?”

After saying this, she shifted her gaze, filled with despair and pleading, to Lu Ting. “Grandpa, believe me, I really don’t know anything. I just took over the Shen Group not long ago, and I truly had no idea about what my father ordered subordinates to do! There must be a misunderstanding!”

In just a few words, she shifted the blame onto Shen Hai.

Lu Ting also calmed down and thoughtfully said, “Zhou Guo, you accused Yuanyuan of intentional injury and harboring a criminal. The evidence is conclusive. I want to ask, whom did she instruct Song Yan to harm and protect? What was her motive, and have you investigated all of this thoroughly? Could it be someone else’s doing, but now the blame is being pushed onto Yuanyuan?”

The old man’s meaning was clear; if Zhou Guo couldn’t tell him the whole truth, he wouldn’t allow anyone to take Shen Yuan away easily.

This not only concerned his own face but also the reputation of the entire Lu family.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Guo nodded in understanding and said, “You are the elder, and it’s only right for you to inquire. I will take this opportunity to explain everything to you.”

He then cleared his throat, glanced around at the VIPs waiting to watch the show, and hesitated, “How about we find a quiet place to talk?”

Lu Ting, of course, wouldn’t refuse this proposal clearly intended for the sake of the Lu family.

“No need.”

At this moment, Lu Si leisurely walked down from the stage, standing directly in front of Zhou Guo, saying, “Captain Zhou, if you have something to say, say it here. If Shen Yuan is really innocent, the engagement ceremony can continue. If she is really involved in some case, our Lu family won’t condone it.”

“All Si!” Lu Ting’s gaze, filled with anger, swept over him. But then he stood with his hands behind his back and nodded, “Let’s talk here.”

Zhou Guo naturally had no objections.

But Shen Yuan seemed to have been stepped on her sore spot. Suddenly raising her voice, she desperately shouted, “Grandpa, don’t believe him. What he said is not true!”

“Yuanyuan, don’t be anxious. If you are wronged, Grandpa will definitely help you.” Lu Ting signaled to the bodyguards nearby with a glance.

The bodyguards immediately understood, escorted Shen Yuan to a chair, and let her rest.

Only then did Lu Ting say, “Zhou Guo, speak.”

Zhou Guo replied, “A few days ago, an extremely heinous rape case occurred at Lincheng No. 1 High School. The victim was a female student from the school.

It is reported that she had a verbal dispute with people online regarding the incident involving Mei Shu and Shen Yuan.”

“The main culprit of this case, Zhao Fu, has already surrendered to the police. According to him, everything he did was instructed by Shen Yuan. Before this, Zhao Fu and a group of local thugs had gathered to besiege another victim, threatening her.”

“After the incident, Shen Yuan even sent her subordinate, Song Yan, to try to get Zhao Fu out of Lincheng. But now, Song Yan has also surrendered.”

“What? Shen Yuan arranged for someone to commit the rape at No. 1 High School? How deep is the hatred for her to lay hands on an underage female student like this?”

Zhou Guo’s words immediately sparked whispers among the onlookers.

Lu Ting glared at Zhou Guo fiercely and said, “Motive. What is her motive for doing this?”

Zhou Guo answered sternly, “Shen Yuan publicly declared at Mei Shu’s coming-of-age ceremony that Mei Shu intervened in the marriage between Lu Si and herself. After that, the incident continued to escalate online, leading to disputes among netizens.”

“Shen Yuan’s public relations team had a dispute with the students of No.i High School online. In order to silence those leading female students, Shen Yuan bribed thugs to threaten them. Unexpectedly, the suspect Zhao Fu violated one of the female students, leading to Shen Yuan’s subsequent order for Song Yan to get Zhao Fu out of Lincheng.”

Lu Ting handed his cane to the attendant nearby and then, with hands behind his back, took slow steps toward Shen Yuan. His deep and cold eyes revealed a dignity that had never been displayed in public since his retirement.

“Grandpa.” Shen Yuan kept shaking her head in front of him, tears streaming down pitifully. “Grandpa, don’t believe him, I really didn’t do it.”

Lu Ting stood in front of her, looking down at her from a commanding position. “Last night, you told me that all of this was Mei Shu’s conspiracy. Now, explain to me, what role did Mei Shu play in all of this, and how did she frame you?”

“She bribed Song Yan!” Shen Yuan reacted quickly, swiftly finding a reason to defend herself. “I just took over the company not long ago, and the employees haven’t had time to organize themselves. So Mei Shu took advantage of the loophole.. She must have done all these things herself and colluded with Song Yan, putting all the blame on me!”
