Xu Yanqing turned on mute and turned off the lights in the room.
The light from the mobile phone made her face glow white.
The picture was very shaky, and it must have been taken with a mobile phone. Xu Yanqing stood up and took out the headphones from the drawer. As soon as she plugged them in, all kinds of unbearable sounds filled the air.
"Come on, blow one for us."
Xu An was standing in a room without any clothes, surrounded by several men, and someone handed her a flute.
She didn't know how to do it. She had never been in contact with it. She was afraid and wanted to hide from the camera, but she couldn't.
"Ha ha--"
"How old are you? Are you underdeveloped?"
"You're as thin as ribs, hurry up!"
Xu An picked up the flute and blew it hard. The hoarse sound, accompanied by the laughter of the group, reached Xu Yanqing's ears.
Another line of text soon appeared on the phone's dialog box. "Please enjoy it for yourself, isn't it pretty good?"
Xu Yanqing's teeth were almost broken. She stared at the screen tightly, even her lips were pale.
She glanced at Xu An, who was sleeping next to her. Her body was always moving around, and she didn't seem to be sleeping peacefully.
Xu Yanqing took a deep breath, trembled her fingers, and turned back.
"Who asked you to do this?"
"Don't worry, I just save it on my phone and enjoy it myself. Just don't cut off contact with me."
Xu Yanqing pursed her thin lips into a tight line, "I can buy it back with money. Can you give me a price?"
"I'm not short of that money."
When Xu Yanqing went back, the other party had no response.
She was afraid of alerting others, so she didn't ask any more questions.
In the middle of the night, Xu An was awakened by a nightmare. Her whole body jumped and she was hugged tightly by an arm. "An'an, don't be afraid."
Xu An kept crawling into Xu Yanqing's arms, the bedside lamp was turned on, and Xu An's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
"Sister, aren't you asleep yet?"
"Well, I can't sleep."
Xu Yanqing pulled the pillow next to her and sat up. She hugged Xu An tightly, "Don't be afraid, it's just a nightmare. You'll be fine when you wake up."
Xu An said nothing and closed his eyes tightly.
Xu Yanqing put his hand on her head, "An'an, I know you admitted to stealing because you were coerced. I also know you can only do this."
Xu An suddenly wanted to raise his head, but Xu Yanqing hugged his shoulders, "You can't hide anything from me in the future..."
"Sister, I..." Xu An stared at the distance, "What do you know?"
"I saw that video."
Xu An struggled, as if she wanted to hide under the quilt, but Xu Yanqing held her down firmly, "An'an, don't be afraid, just listen to me, I can handle this matter. You have to believe me!"
"But you're not Superman."
"I am," Xu Yanqing couldn't help but tears rolled down and fell on Xu An's face, "For An An, I can be."
Xu Yanqing finally comforted her and then asked for some important information.
"Where is the place in the video? Can you see the faces of those people clearly?"
Xu An also worked very hard. Although he wanted to escape, he still recalled it in his mind.
"Right near our house, those people were wearing masks, the kind of plastic masks we used to see when we were kids."
As soon as Xu An closed his eyes, he could think of those ferocious faces.
"They also said they couldn't take any serious action against me because they knew I had a heart disease and were afraid of killing someone."
This incident must have been premeditated. Why should a seriously ill person be targeted?
In the final analysis, Xu Yanqing is still the original sin.
"An'an, what about the last time we were in the cinema? You didn't take any secret photos, but you admitted it. Was it Zhao Sinan who threatened you?"
"I don't know, I just received a message saying that if I don't recognize it, he will send the video and send it to your mobile phone."
Xu Yanqing no longer needs to doubt others. This matter has nothing to do with Zhao Sinan.
She knew it, but she had no evidence.
Xu Yanqing stood up and got up from the bed, "An'an, you can sleep for a while, I'll be in the room."
This will be very clear in her mind and not confusing at all.
Xu Yanqing made a list of things to do tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
In winter, the sun rarely comes out in the early morning in Nanhuai City.
Xu Yanqing looked at Xu An who had just fallen asleep. She took out her down jacket and put it on.
After she arrived at Lanshan Garden, she called Yu Zhi.
Xu Yanqing thought he was still asleep, but unexpectedly he quickly answered her call.
"Hello."
"Master, I want to see you."
Yu Zhi had just finished running, and his face was still dripping with sweat. "Isn't your sister's matter settled?"
"No, it's not over yet."
Xu Yanqing was stopped at the door, looking eagerly at this luxurious mansion, "I want to talk to you in person."
Yu Zhi walked out of the gym and went downstairs, "Where are you?"
"At your doorstep."
The man paused lightly, "What, do you want to come in?"
"It's okay for me to come out."
Yu Zhi came downstairs. He had just sweated, so he just put on a coat and went out.
The bodyguard led Xu Yanqing inside. It was very foggy today. As she walked through the leafy courtyard, her legs became wet without realizing it.
Xu Yanqing walked into a small room, where Yu Zhi was waiting for her.
The room was very warm, and the fire was burning brightly in the fireplace.
Xu Yanqing took off her shoes at the door and went in. Yu Zhi saw her and waved.
In the morning, this man had just exercised, his hair was half wet, and his eyes had a split and ambiguous look.
Xu Yanqing walked up to him and touched her face.
"What did you do last night? Didn't you sleep?"
"Well, I did stay up all night."
Yu Zhi looked at the dark blue under her eyes and asked, "How did you find yourself here?"
"Master, what I say next may offend you, but I beg you to let me finish."
Yu Zhi's face became a little serious.
"Want to explain to me your sister's motive for stealing, or do you want to say that she was wrongfully accused? No need." Yu Zhi didn't want to hear it. Whether Xu An stole or was innocent didn't have much to do with him.
"Then if I said that Zhao Sinan had someone arrest my sister, would you believe it?"
Yu Zhi saw Xu Yanqing take out a stack of papers from her bag, all of which she had printed out.
She typed out every scene in the video, only adding a thick mosaic to Xu An.
Also, she also typed out the screenshot of the WeChat conversation last night.
"It's so blurry, what can you tell?"
"Master, as you said, I can ask you for help if I need anything."
Xu Yanqing could find out these people sooner or later by herself, but she was afraid that things would change, and she was even more afraid that Xu An wouldn't be able to bear the pain of waiting.
"Why did you say that Sinan had someone do it?"
"Just because of what happened in the cinema that day, if Zhao Sinan was not with that gang, how could my sister receive threatening text messages at that exact time? The other party said that if she did not admit to secretly filming, she would release the video
exposure."
Yu Zhi flipped through the information in his hand page by page.
"Where's that text message?"
Xu Yanqing's voice weakened a bit, "She was afraid that I would find out, so she deleted it."
