After that day, Su Yao's hand was really swollen for several days. Pei Yan didn't come to find her either, and her cooperative relationship with Tang Yao had stabilized.
Su Yao promised Tang Yao to help him solve cases when necessary, but Tang Yao couldn't expose Su Yao. Similarly, Tang Yao could provide Su Yao with the information she needed, but it had to be within an acceptable range.
On this day, Su Yao was curled up in front of the computer, rubbing her hand. Suddenly, an email reminder popped up in the lower right - hand corner. There was no signature and it was from an unfamiliar email address.
After Su Yao processed the file, she opened the email and found that it was just a false alarm. The sender was Tang Yao. There was only one attachment and nothing else.
After opening it, Su Yao found that it was the interrogation video of Chen Sheng.
In the video, Tang Yao was asking Chen Sheng, "Come on, why did you kill Wu Shanshan's assistant? Just because she killed Wu Shanshan?"
As soon as this matter was mentioned, Chen Sheng got excited and started scolding.
"What do you guys know! If it weren't for me, that woman would still be at large, and you guys would still be keeping Su Yao locked up! Why? She harmed two people at once!"
"Sanctioning criminals is the job of the police and the court!"
"Are you guys useful? You've investigated for so long and still haven't found out anything!"
The male policeman beside Tang Yao suddenly slapped the table hard. "Whether we're useful or not is none of your business. I'll say it again. Being honest is good for everyone!"
Maybe this frightened Chen Sheng. A grown man actually burst into tears on the spot. "Is it my fault? Shanshan did have a bad temper, but how much better was that assistant? She helped those men bully Shanshan. I couldn't stand it anymore!"
"So this is your reason for killing someone?" Tang Yao was also angry. "No matter whether we policemen are useful or not, you're the last person who should say such things."
Then came a long - buried past.
Five years ago, Chen Sheng was fired by his company. Without a job, he finally went to work as a driver for Wu Shanshan's talent agency. At that time, he made a small mistake and his superior was going to fire him, but Wu Shanshan stopped it, and he became Wu Shanshan's driver.
From then on, Chen Sheng was very grateful to Wu Shanshan. But as Wu Shanshan grew up, she changed. She was no longer as amiable and well - behaved as before. She wanted to fight for and grab everything.
Later, because of a reality show, he accidentally met Su Yao. At that time, Su Yao had helped Wu Shanshan out of trouble in the show, so Chen Sheng also had a good impression of Su Yao, but not as much as he did of Wu Shanshan.
One day when he went to the parking lot to drive, he happened to see Wu Shanshan's assistant knock Li Yin unconscious and lock her in the car.
Then came the news that Wu Shanshan was rushed to the hospital. Chen Sheng was so panicked on the spot that at first he also thought that it was really Su Yao who had attacked Wu Shanshan, because he had seen with his own eyes that Wu Shanshan had provoked Su Yao.
"Later, I wanted to ask that woman what was going on. She didn't say a word. Later, I followed her and saw her scraping something off the wall. I realized that it wasn't Su Yao who did it. It was all that woman!"
"How did you kill her?"
"With a knife. What else could I do?"
It was a very straightforward answer, without any hesitation. There was only so much to say. It just so happened that it was time to confront me with the situation after your handling.
But the attached strange acupuncture points and the health report later shocked Su Yao greatly. Qingshui Village.
The case in Qingshui Village had shocked the entire police force back then. It also took about half a year, and they finally won.
In the video, Chen Sheng suddenly asked again, "How did you manage to find me?"
"Does this need to be investigated?" Tang Yao smiled. "We have reason to suspect that you've retaliated against Su Yao. Why can't we let Su Yao draw you out?"
Su Yao was greatly surprised. She didn't expect Chen Sheng to ask this question, but she was very satisfied and happy with Tang Yao's answer.
Time passed. The case that had shaken the entire entertainment industry was closed in the most unexpected way. The deceased was killed by her assistant, and the fanatical follower avenged his idol by killing the assistant.
In the end, Su Yao gained a lot of fans in this case. Unconsciously, many passers - by and haters had turned into her fans.
This case was also involved with a drug - trafficking organization. Su Yao handed over the video in her hand to Tang Yao, but the police didn't dare to act rashly. Alarming the enemy would often lead to nothing.
After the undercover police officers went to Yalou, they didn't find anything. Even the cameras were secretly removed.
Su Yao's lawsuit was in full swing. After going to the court several times, it was only then that Su Yao realized how capable Pei Yan was.
Before leaving, Su Yao left a message. "The case has been solved. The murderer is not me. If you guys really need a result, at most I'll pay a part of the money. It's not a big pressure for me, but I don't know what kind of reputation you guys will get."
Life was like this. Su Yao had already understood this truth. She didn't go looking for trouble, but trouble would always find her. There was nothing that couldn't be overcome, and nothing that could be avoided.
When Su Yao came out of the court, there was a group of reporters waiting outside, chattering and asking her a lot of questions. It was rare for Su Yao to be willing to stop and answer these questions. One of the reasons was that she wanted to wait for Pei Yan to finish and come out.
"Miss Su, what's your opinion on being sued?"
Su Yao smiled. "What opinion can I have? I'm used to being free - spirited. If they want to sue, let them. How the court will judge is their business."
"What do you think about the rumor that you've been kept by someone?"
"Hey, that's a good question! Welcome everyone to keep me so that I don't have to work and can just eat, drink and have fun."
But the last question made Su Yao subconsciously frown.
A young reporter asked, "Miss Su, what's your opinion on Wu Shanshan?"
"I think it's better for us to respect the dead. I hope you'll pay attention to such questions in the future. Don't think that just because you're a reporter, you can disrespect anyone and ask any question."
"I..." Before the reporter could say another word, Su Yao had already left.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of a tall and slender figure. Pei Yan came out, so there was no need for her to waste time with these reporters.
This man hadn't come to find her since he was sent back that day. He hadn't even discussed the lawsuit with her. If it weren't for her quick - wittedness, there would probably have been a lot of loopholes in the court today.
Su Yao sat in the passenger seat with all the car windows open. Her car blocked Pei Yan's way.
"Hey, Lawyer Pei, are you interested in giving me a chance to thank you properly?"
For a moment, Su Yao clearly saw a look of awkwardness on Pei Yan's face. His long and narrow phoenix eyes were lowered, not daring to look at Su Yao.
Su Yao didn't care about her pride and continued, "Come on, give me a chance. Don't drink today. I just want to thank you."
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, Pei Yan's expression became even more unpleasant.
Oh no. Su Yao was stunned in the passenger seat. It seemed that she had said something wrong again.
