Chapter 218: Evidence
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Such an innocent and pure lady deserved a better partner to lean on. As for him, he could do without women, and a wife was nothing but a title to him.
Women were all the same. He reminded himself not to know true love again.
Triggering his emotions would only add to his weakness, and that could really be fatal.
The dangerous world of the rich was not suitable for a woman as pure as white paper like her.
Only, now, he learned that he still had a son, and under this foolish woman’s meticulous care, the young boy had actually turned into someone outstanding.
He had to rack his brains because of this.
Sitting on the bed’s edge, he looked at Yun Shishi’s soothing side profile and delved into deep thought.
…
It was late into the night, yet sleep continued to elude Yun Tianyou.
Tossing and turning in bed as he thought of Yun Shishi, he eventually climbed out of it in his pajamas and went to his study desk to furiously complete an entire book of high school math questions.
He powered on his laptop, and a beep notified him of a new email in his inbox. He clicked on it; the email contained information he had ordered Li Hanlin to check into earlier.
Lu Jingtian. She had a nice-sounding name that belied her wickedness.
Youyou read the email in silence, his fair fingers rhythmically drumming on the table. He looked as if he was focused on planning out something.
His earlier conversation with Mu Yazhe had given him a stomach full of indignation. With no news from his mother, he was absolutely feeling frustrated.
He was not in the mood to bother about this woman.
He was about to log out of his email account when Li Hanlin sent him another batch of messages. They contained recordings the latter had copied from the hotel.
For a place like a hotel, security camera recordings were securely stored. If there were no police officers at the scene, normal citizens could not get their hands on them at all.
He did not know how Li Hanlin had managed to get these in his hands.
He opened the first recording. It showed Lu Jingtian bashing a woman in one of the hotel’s corridors.
He was able to identify her with a look, as he had taken note of what she was wearing in the gala. Her gown was noticeably unique, so she was easily identified in it.
Security cameras within Hotel Imperial were well-hidden, and the extent of capture was adjusted to the widest. The cameras from the recordings were positioned to capture the stairwell and the elevator doors.
Those familiar with the hotel’s layout were aware that these two areas were focal capture points of security cameras, thus recordings were shot from two different angles.
Unfortunately, Lu Jingtian was considered to be ‘committing a crime under supervision’– in the heat of the moment, she forgot to find a more secluded area and directed her fists and kicks at Yun Na straight away. With the backing of her powerful father, she needed not hesitate.
The first recording was hazy. From this angle, one could only identify Lu Jingtian’s silhouette.
As for the person she was beating up, her facial features were blurred out and he could not recognize her at all.
When he opened the second recording, it showed the two from the front. It was positioned at a precise angle and the facial features could clearly be seen. He identified Lu Jingtian at once, and the appearance of the woman she was hitting gradually became clearer.
… Yun Na?
He furrowed his brows.
She attended the gala tonight as well? Why did he not see her?
Was it because he arrived there too late?
Five minutes into the recording, Lu Jingtian dragged Yun Na into the stairwell. Ten minutes later, she exited the stairwell with a flustered look.
