"A Lai’s words suddenly reminded Ye Shu of her marriage certificate with Sheng Shaochen. However, years had passed, and that thing was probably long gone by now. Besides, Old Madam Sheng had forced Sheng Shaochen to be with Du Shiniang, which ant that the marriage she had registered with Shaochen must have been forcibly annulled. Now, if she had to produce it, she truly had no way to do so.
The ambassador asked, "Miss Song, Miss Ye, both of you claim to be relatives of Mr. Sheng Shaochen, what exactly is going on? Miss Song, what evidence do you have that proves you are a mber of the Sheng family?"
"Of course, I have evidence. I am not only Sheng Shaochen’s lover, but I am also his capable assistant in business!" Song Xiaoxin said, gesturing for A Lai to co forward.
A Lai imdiately took out two red marriage certificates from her bag.
Song Xiaoxin presented the items to the ambassador and said, "Ambassador, these are the marriage certificates of and my husband, along with photos of us attending various events together. You can take a good look at them."
Upon glancing at them, Ye Shu was instantly convinced. They were indeed photos of Song Xiaoxin with Sheng Shaochen. Song Xiaoxin’s face could really be thicker than the city wall, carrying around two counterfeit certificates.
Ye Shu didn’t know if Song Xiaoxin wanted to be Mrs. Sheng so badly that she had made fake certificates to carry around and fantasize about all along, or if she had made them just for this rescue operation.
But no matter which possibility it was, both were enough to prove that Song Xiaoxin was indeed a person who would stoop to any low to get what she wanted.
One couldn’t produce any proof, while the other had a marriage certificate and various photos from events they attended together, so naturally, the ambassador was more inclined to believe Song Xiaoxin. He then turned to Ye Shu and said, "Alright, Miss Ye, considering that you wish to go on a rescue mission, we will excuse you from the responsibility of impersonating a relative. Please leave imdiately!"
"Ambassador—" Ye Shu hadn’t finished speaking when the ambassador gestured for her to leave again and gave the order to dismiss her!
Song Xiaoxin coldly watched Ye Shu and said with a sneer, "Make a move, Young Master Ye. This is not a place where you can throw tantrums and act violently."
"Wait for !" As soon as she finished speaking, a woman with her face covered by a scarf walked in holding a heavy suitcase. "Mr. Ambassador, please don’t ask her to leave. She is just like , another wife of Mr. Bai Di."
"Lady Baide? Is this true?" The ambassador obviously recognized Lady Baide. After all, she belonged to the area’s largest private oil trader, and they had t several tis before. "But she just claid to be a mber of the Sheng family."
"Is that so?" Lady Baide turned to look at Ye Shu and asked, "You said you were a mber of the Sheng family?"
Ye Shu shrugged and said, "Who knows? I don’t think I said I was a mber of the Sheng family just now. I rely said that I am the wife of one of the hostages. Actually, what I ant was that I am one of Baide’s wives."
"Hmph, she is lying again. Ask her to show her ID!" A Lai brought up the docunt issue again.
This ti, the ambassador laughed and said, "In the Bai Di family, marriage is as simple as buying and selling livestock; there’s no need for any docunts. So... alright, you all may co in with ."
Song Xiaoxin was furious, stamping her foot in anger. She couldn’t understand why Lady Baide, this little wretch Ye Shu, would tell such a lie to help her sneak through!
Everyone followed the ambassador into the negotiation room. The Joint Ambassador looked at them as they entered and said with a solemn face, "Ladies, we deeply regret the situation of your relatives being held hostage by a terrorist organization in our city. From our communications with the criminals, it seems that we can only temporarily satisfy the criminals’ demands and bring back your relatives through a ransom."
