Chapter 17: 017 Evidence, Slap in the Face Chapter 17: 017 Evidence, Slap in the Face Qin Xian was notoriously overbearing, known within Jiang Circle alongside Xu Lu of the Xu Family as two madn you wouldn’t want to provoke.
His actions were, without exaggeration, a walking embodint of half the Code of Laws.
Yet Qin Xian was not afraid because no one could afford to provoke the Qin Family, and all evidence would be thoroughly eradicated by them.
If that didn’t work, they could simply use money to get rid of the problem.
If they really encountered a thorn in their side, then that person would simply have to disappear.
“Ye Wanlan, if you have evidence, go ahead and call the police to arrest ,” Qin Xian laughed, “I’ll just sit here and wait for you, so why don’t you do it?”
Sheng Yunyi panicked, “Ah Xian!”
Madam Qin watched with a cold eye, making no comnt.
Ye Wanlan nodded slowly, “As you wish.”
“What do you an? I don’t have ti to play with you here,” Qin Xian’s eyes were cold and fierce.
At this mont, he only wanted Ye Wanlan to kneel and beg for rcy, to cry bitterly, so she would know that the cost of offending him and the Qin Family was unbearable.
“What I an is,” Ye Wanlan said with a faint smile, “I have the evidence, and yes, I’ve called the police.”
“Trying to bluff!” snapped Madam Qin in irritation, “Take her away!”
Khor Peiqing grabbed Ye Wanlan’s hand, trembling, “We—”
Having lived in Jiangcheng for over a decade, she had never dealt with the powerful families of Jiang Circle and never anticipated that the Qin Family would be so brutish and cold in their thods.
Ye Wanlan clasped her hand in return, standing resolute and unmoving.
“Sister Lan, here I co!”
A crisp voice broke the tense atmosphere.
Before everyone’s eyes, Cheng Qingli handed over a tablet, “I’ve adjusted the clarity and processed the noise.”
“Thank you,” Ye Wanlan received it and looked towards Madam Qin, “I see you’re not wearing glasses, your vision must be good, you should be able to see this from here.”
Madam Qin’s brows twisted, feeling heavily insulted.
Unable to bear it anymore and not wanting to give Ye Wanlan any more ti, Madam Qin was about to speak again when a video started playing for all to see.
In the video, two won held Ye Wanlan down, forcing her to kneel on the ground.
Qin Xian then lifted two buckets of water and poured them over her head, the sound of her bones dislocating was clearly audible.
They threw her into an artificial lake next, laughing as she struggled in the water.
“Look, she’s like a dog…”
“What’s the rush? She won’t die from this, just a lesson to learn.”
Only after the girl had completely passed out did Qin Xian allow people to pull her out of the water.
This video lasted less than a minute, but it clearly recorded the actions of Qin Xian and his accomplices.
In a deadly silence, Qin Xian’s face changed dramatically, nearly jumping out of his wheelchair, achieving a dical miracle.
True, he had a penchant for recording videos, occasionally taking them out to enjoy.
But the videos should have been safely stored in his cara and computer—how did they end up in Ye Wanlan’s hands?
Who leaked them?!
Qin Xian’s mind raced to recall who had been with him on the day they took revenge on Ye Wanlan, all notable sons and daughters of Jiang Circle’s elite.
The more he rembered, the paler his face beca, sweating profusely.
Madam Qin’s expression remained unchanged, but her heart was in turmoil.
This Ye Wanlan was definitely not the foolish stand-in that the rumors claid!
“You think you are the only one with evidence?” Qin Xian struggled to calm himself, his voice becoming stern yet inwardly fearful, “I have a witness here who saw with his own eyes what you did to , Secretary Li!”
Unafraid, Ye Wanlan responded indifferently, “Then, we’ll both call the police.”
Qin Xian laughed out of extre anger, “Fine, let’s go to the police, let’s see who—”
“Enough!” Madam Qin finally interjected, “It’s just child’s play. We’ll make peace, no need to call the police.”
“Mother!” Qin Xian roared.
“Shut up, take your young master away!” Madam Qin barked, then turned back to Ye Wanlan, saying coldly, “You are very clever.”
If it ca to a trial, the evidence in Ye Wanlan’s hands would be enough to send Qin Xian, the mastermind, to prison.
Of course, Ye Wanlan would receive the sa punishnt.
The outco would be a lose-lose situation.
But even a hundred Ye Wanlans couldn’t compare to a single hair on her son’s head.
She wouldn’t trade Qin Xian for Ye Wanlan—it simply wasn’t worth it.
Madam Qin, with a look of disgust, pulled out a bank card: “Five hundred thousand, don’t let see you again.”
“Not enough,” Ye Wanlan didn’t even look at it.
Her expression was calm as if nothing could shake her in the slightest.
Madam Qin was obviously furious, “Do you know when to stop when you’re ahead?”
Several tall and burly bodyguards stepped forward.
“The mont you think about laying a hand on , this video in my hand will be posted on all major social platforms imdiately,” Ye Wanlan’s gaze swept over them, “You might as well try and see whether your Qin Family can delete it faster or I can send Qin Xian away faster. I dare to bet on everything, including my life, whereas you—”
She let out a light laugh: “Don’t dare, won’t, and certainly don’t have the qualifications to gamble with .”
“…”
A mont of silence ensued.
Cheng Qingli’s spine was already drenched in cold sweat, feeling like she was on the edge of a knife.
All of her thoughts were laid bare, and Madam Qin’s pupils shrunk dramatically.
A few seconds later, she gritted her teeth, “Fifty million, and we’ll call this matter settled.”
Finally, Ye Wanlan smiled, “Madam Qin, you are sensible, and I appreciate that.”
At that ti, it was the Transcendent Woman who was being tornted by Qin Xian, and she hadn’t suffered any pain.
But, after all, it was her body; whoever touched it would have to pay the price.
It was never her goal to send Qin Xian away to be protected.
She wanted to play with him slowly.
In all her lives, no one had ever been able to negotiate terms with her.
What she said was the law.
Madam Qin’s face turned green.
She was fifty-two this year, being called sensible by an eighteen-year-old girl?
No, she had been tricked!
Madam Qin seed to realize sothing, suddenly looking up, “You did it on purpose!”
Deliberately angering them, waiting for them, and trading the video for the Qin Family’s money!
Ye Wanlan smiled faintly, “Yes, I did it on purpose.”
Madam Qin took in a deep breath, her hands trembling with overwhelming anger.
In the end, she was completely defeated, while the other party retreated in total victory.
Seeing Madam Qin co out, Qin Xian disbelievingly said, “Mom! Are we just going to leave like this? The doctor said my injuries need at least two months to heal!”
Madam Qin coldly replied, “She ca prepared. Do you have any better ideas? To send the both of you away?”
She wouldn’t lower herself to learn about the mistress Zhou Hechen kept; she’d only heard rumors occasionally that Sheng Yunyi’s stand-in was just a pretty face.
But today’s confrontation with Ye Wanlan made her realize that the rumors were completely wrong!
Sothing had been overlooked…
It was lethal!
“Hello, it’s .” Madam Qin dialed a phone number, “I need you to investigate soone for . Yes, Ye Wanlan. I need her entire background, especially any key turning points, and her social circle.”
She didn’t believe that soone like her would willingly be a stand-in.
Sheng Yunyi was also on the phone.
“Hechen, Miss Ye was really too impulsive today,” she sighed, “I couldn’t stop her, nor could I persuade Ah Xian; the situation is getting worse.”
Zhou Hechen had been busy. Upon hearing this, his expression changed, “What happened?”
Sheng Yunyi hesitated and then said, “She extorted fifty million from the Qin Family.”
