Chapter 985: Frame-Up
Gu Jingyang froze in place.
She looked at Zhong Meilan, her eyes were both surprised and terrified, and she stammered, "Mom... Mom, what are you talking about?"
Zhong Meilan looked distressed, "I know you don't like Han Ruoxing. You usually say it in front of me, and I just think you are a child, and you want to talk nonsense. I didn't expect you to do such a thing at Miss Chen's wedding. I really spoiled you. You don't know right from wrong! If nothing happens to her, how will you let the Gu family explain it!"
Gu Jingyang's face was pale. She stared at Zhong Meilan in a daze. That mouth chattered non-stop, and every word she said made her feel like she was falling into an ice cave, and she was chilled to the bone.
Compared to the suspicious or contemptuous eyes of outsiders, it was Zhong Meilan who made Gu Jingyang's back colder.
Clearly, she had just told her that she would no longer target Han Ruoxing, that she couldn't bear to part with her grandson, and that she hoped that the family would be harmonious. But in the blink of an eye, Han Ruoxing fell down, and before the evidence was even presented, she was the first to jump out and point the finger at her.
Her mother had never given up on getting rid of Han Ruoxing's child. She called her here just to frame her for Han Ruoxing's "miscarriage".
But she couldn't figure out why, because she was her mother!
She could get rid of her grandson without blinking an eye, or she could push her out to take the blame without mercy.
"It seems that being locked up before didn't teach her a lesson."
"The eldest lady is used to being arrogant and domineering. She doesn't care about right and wrong. She does things according to her mood. No matter what, doesn't the Gu family have her back?"
"That was in the past. Han Ruoxing was the daughter of the Qiao family. The Qiao family was not well-off. She could bully others by relying on her family's favor. But now she is the daughter of the Song family. She has no relationship with their Gu family. She even lives in the Gu family to help Gu Jingyan recover his memory out of moral obligation. At this time, she attacked Han Ruoxing. Regardless of whether the Song family is willing or not, she did this without any conscience. She was ungrateful and heartless!"
"Didn't she also lock Han Ruoxing in the bathroom at the charity gala before? At that time, she almost killed Song Jiayu. It's hard to change a person's nature."
...
The surroundings were full of discussions, and the words were all about Gu Jingyan's vicious mind and arrogant nature.
Gu Jingyang's shoulders trembled slightly. With red eyes, she shouted at everyone, "I didn't do it!"
The discussion paused for a moment, and soon it started again.
Zhong Meilan said with disappointment, "Jingyang, you have to admit your mistakes. If it weren't for the bottle of tung oil, I wouldn't have thought it was you. You mentioned it on the phone before, and I thought you were just talking, but I didn't expect you to really put it into action... How do you let your brother deal with it in front of your Uncle Song in the future after you do this?"
Tang Xiaoxiao caught the words, "What did she mention on the phone? Did she discuss it with you? Or was all this instigated by you?"
Zhong Meilan ignored her, "Before, I was too indulgent to you, and you became so lawless today, which led to such consequences. I really regret it."
As she said that, she took out her mobile phone and clicked on a recording.
Gu Jingyang's voice soon came from the recording.
"Who does she think she is? Everyone has to pamper her?"
"Yes, Han Ruoxing still thinks my brother is the same as before, wanting to make everything centered on herself. My brother has long forgotten her and gets annoyed when he sees her acting up."
"I'm brushing tung oil on the floor, waiting for her to slide when she comes downstairs later..."
Every word in it is Gu Jingyang's arrogant voice, especially the last sentence mentioning tung oil.
The facts seemed to become clear all of a sudden.
Gu Jingyang doesn't like Han Ruoxing, and can't stand Han Ruoxing in Yuyuan. He has long wanted to teach her a lesson, but I don't know why he didn't succeed in Yuyuan, and instead made trouble at Mrs. Chen's daughter's wedding.
In any case, his heart is vicious!
After listening to this recording, Gu Jingyang's face was almost transparent.
She looked at Zhong Meilan, and her eyes changed from shock at the beginning to no sadness or joy at the end.
Gu Jingyan's face was particularly gloomy. He looked at Gu Jingyang, his fingers curled together, and his eyes were extremely complicated.
Gu Jingyang's heart ached, tears fell, and he said hoarsely, "Brother, don't you believe me either?"
Gu Jingyan turned his eyes away and looked at Mrs. Chen, "Mrs. Chen, why don't you provide complete surveillance? If it was Jingyang who did it, she went upstairs earlier than Han Ruoxing. Han Ruoxing should have found the tung oil on the ground when she went upstairs. She fell when she came back. Did anyone else pass by the stairwell during this period? The surveillance you provided did not show it. There is also surveillance in the stairwell, which is the most intuitive evidence to show who did it."
Zhong Meilan was a little flustered.
Her plan was not meticulous. She originally thought that Han Ruoxing was injured, and Gu Jingyan must have been confused. He had no time to think about it. When he saw the surveillance, he would definitely find Jingyang to settle the score. But she didn't expect that at this point, he could still calmly sort out the loopholes.
Gu Jingyang was also a little surprised. She couldn't believe that her brother would still believe her. She was so stupid that she forgot to cry.
Mrs. Chen said calmly, "The stairwell is being renovated recently, and the surveillance camera is not connected to the power supply, so we can only check the surveillance camera in the corridor. I just picked out the key points for you."
Zhong Meilan just breathed a sigh of relief, but the screen started playing automatically.
The video that was originally cut off has another part after it, which is the video before Han Ruoxing went upstairs.
Han Ruoxing went upstairs to go to the bathroom, because the bathroom on the floor was being cleaned, so he couldn't go.
She asked the waiter to take her upstairs, and soon after she went upstairs, the cleaning sign on the door of the downstairs bathroom was taken away.
The person was wearing a light blue cheongsam, exactly the same as the one Zhong Meilan was wearing at the moment.
After she took the sign, she also went to the stairwell, stayed there for a while, and then came out from upstairs.
Everyone suddenly looked at Zhong Meilan, whose face changed slightly.
Shen Qingchuan curled his lips, "Auntie Zhong, when did you take the job of cleaning the hotel toilets?"
Zhong Meilan's face turned pale, and she said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense here! I was just passing by!"
"You took the cleaning sign while passing by?" Tang Xiaoxiao suddenly realized, "I understand, you smeared the oil, you framed your daughter, right? Damn, I have never seen such an explosion in my life! Gu Jingyang is your daughter, you let her bear such a big pot, the spit is about to drown her, you don't feel sorry at all!"
"It's not me!" Zhong Meilan gritted her teeth and said angrily, "I just happened to pass by, Jingyang said she had something to find me, I went upstairs to find her!"
Shen Qingchuan looked at Zhong Meilan, then at Gu Jingyang, "Gu Jingyang also said that he went upstairs to find you, who is lying between you two?" (End of this chapter)
