Chapter 32: You Can Commit a Crime Just Because You Have a Big Background

“Sorry, my hand slipped.” However, there was not much expression of regret on her face.

The box was made of paper, so it could float on the water.

Fortunately, it didn’t drift far away and could be fished out.

Wen Yan had just bent down when she caught a glimpse of a hand reaching out from the corner of her eye.

Wen Yan sneered and turned sideways. Xie Zigui’s hand missed and her foot slipped, falling into the pool with a splash.

Wen Yan quickly grabbed her box and took a few steps back.

Xie Zigui splashed the water and shouted, “Help!”

Su Qianqian, who was watching from the side, covered her mouth and hurriedly called out, “Someone, someone pushed Xie Zigui into the water!”

Her voice resounded through the clouds, and everyone in the Xie family could hear it.

Suddenly, a person rushed over and jumped into the pool to save Xie Zigui.

The person was dressed in a white T-shirt. His ear-length hair was dripping with water, and his handsome face was filled with anger.

“Second Brother!” Seeing him, Xie Zigui almost cried out. “This Wen Yan is so vicious. She actually pushed me into the water.”

The servant brought a blanket over and covered her with it.

Xie Yiting, who had just returned from school, didn’t know what was going on. He only saw his sister falling into the water and easily believed her.

Xie Yiting put Xie Zigui down and turned to Wen Yan.

The moment he saw her, Xie Yiting frowned. He felt the person in front of him was familiar, but he couldn’t tell where he had seen her before.

The woman in front of him had a graceful figure. Her hair was casually tied up, revealing her exquisite neck. She was ridiculously beautiful.

“Miss, please come with me to the Public Security Bureau now.”

Looking at Xie Yiting, who was about to send her to prison without any reason, before Wen Yan could say anything, Su Qianqian added fuel to the fire, “Xie Yiting, her background isn’t small.”

“Oh?” Xie Yiting raised his eyebrows, “You can commit crimes just because you have a big background?”

He studied law and was currently studying for his Ph.D. What he hated the most was the background.

Therefore, he had always kept a low profile and focused on his studies. He did not want to get involved in the company’s matters.

Su Qianqian’s words hit the nail on the head.

“I don’t have any background, but Mr. Xie, before you say these words, you can check the surveillance cameras first.” Wen Yan straightened his back and said calmly, “I didn’t push her. She wanted to push me, but I avoided her and she fell in.”

“Are you saying that my sister asked for it?” Xie Yiting’s sharp gaze swept over her.”If you didn’t stand here, would she have fallen into the water?”

Wen Yan was speechless.

Xie Yiting’s affectionate eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of ice.

Wen Yan did not expect some people could twist the truth to such an extent.

She lowered her eyes. There was anger, sadness, and envy in her heart.

If her relatives were still around, they would probably protect her as well.

Unfortunately, she no longer had any relatives. In the future, she could only rely on herself.

“Does Mr. Xie meanyou don’t plan to check the surveillance cameras?” Her expression was calm, and her lips curled into a mocking smile.

Hearing her words, Xie Zigui’s heart jumped to her throat.

If they investigated the surveillance cameras, wouldn’t she be exposed?

“If the police need to, we will provide them. The surveillance cameras here are not something you can see just because you want to.”

Xie Yiting helped her out.

Xie Zigui heaved a sigh of relief.

It was still Second Brother who doted on her. If Eldest Brother was here, he might really check the surveillance cameras before speaking.

Her second brother was good at everything, especially when it came to protecting her sister.

Her second brother had never lost a lawsuit, let alone a small matter like the outcome.

She wanted Wen Yan to be hated by everyone in the Xie family before she entered the Xie family.

This way, even if Wen Yan were recognized one day, he would not be able to take her things away.

“Second Brother, she has a good relationship with Third Brother and is Gu Jinmo’s ex-wife.”

She emphasized the word “ex-wife”.

Xie Yiting didn’t care who she was. He was determined to bring her to the police station.

The commotion here had alerted the others, including Xie Huaiyuan.

Seeing Xie Zigui’s drenched body confronting Wen Yan, Xie Huaiyuan understood everything.

He had just received news that Xie Zigui’s classmate would arrive tonight. According to the results of the investigation, that person was most likely Xianxian.

Unfortunately, Xiao Ye’s admiration for Wen Yan disappointed him. He found Xianxian, not Wen Yan.

Seeing Wen Yan and Xie Zigui confronting each other, he was interested in watching the show. He asked softly, “Didn’t Miss Wen already go back?”

“Who knows? I saw her push Zigui into the water from afar. Zigui only said one thing for me today and she already holds a grudge. She’s so scheming. No wonder Brother Mo divorced her.” Su Qianqian didn’t mind the commotion. When she saw Xie Huaiyuan come out, she immediately added fuel to the fire.

Wen Yan sneered.

All of them really treated her like a pushover.

“President Xie, since you’re here, you should check the surveillance cameras. I also want to know why Miss Xie threw my things into the water and even reached out to push me. Her actions of stealing a chicken and losing rice make me very confused. I don’t know what I’ve done to offend Miss Xie for her to target me like this.”

Wen Yan’s words made Xie Zigui’s face turn ugly.

“I just came back today. This is the first time I’ve seen you. Why should I not target you? Wen Yan, you were the one who pushed me just now.”

Seeing that Xie Zigui wanted to confirm this matter, Wen Yan smiled.

“Miss Xie, what era are we in now? Do you think you can convict me with just the words of you and Su Qianqian?” Wen Yan looked at Xie Yiting and said softly, “I heard that you’re a famous lawyer, and lawyers speak with the law. Do you think you can frame someone just because she’s your sister?”

Her words were full of ideas, and every word was on point.

Xie Yiting’s sunny face darkened.

He had indeed been protective of Xie Zigui just now, but that was because he was certain Xie Zigui would not tell such a lame lie.

However, Wen Yan’s words reminded him he was wrong.

“Since she wants to see the surveillance footage, let her see it.” Xie Huaiyuan said with a meaningful smile.

Xie Zigui didn’t show it on his face, but her heart was already in her throat.

If they checked the surveillance cameras, everything would be over.

She did not expect Wen Yan to be so difficult to deal with.

Qianqian was right. The barefoot was not afraid of those wearing shoes, and a destitute like her was even more terrifying.

Because of her nervousness, cold sweat broke out on her back.

In fact, Xie Huaiyuan’s thinking was very simple. Xie Zigui was usually very kind and obedient. She could not even bear to step on an ant to death. How could she frame a person she had only met once?

The only possibility was that Wen Yan was lying.

However, he also admired Wen Yan’s desire to check the surveillance cameras. She was the first junior who dared to force him to check the surveillance cameras in front of him.

He was willing to give her a chance.

“I don’t believe my daughter would lie to you.”

He stood confidently with his hands behind his back.

Wen Yan wasn’t surprised to see Xie Huaiyuan’s solemn expression.

She knew that people would subconsciously protect their own, especially Xie Huaiyuan.

However, when she heard he was willing to check the surveillance cameras, she was not in a hurry.

“Then I’ll have to trouble you, President Xie. After checking the surveillance cameras, both of us can rest assured.”

She looked at Xie Zigui with interest. As expected, Xie Zigui’s face was terrifyingly pale.
