“Ou Lixue and Luo Anning both knew that Ou Lixue was stating facts when she exposed Luo Xinya. Since she knew that it was the truth, why did she claim that she had framed Luo Xinya? Well, framing and exposing mean completely different things.”
Tang Chao opened his cigarette box and pulled out a cigarette which he then placed in his mouth. “The problem lies with Ou Lixue. Think about it, which woman in the s...o...b..z industry doesn’t have a scheming mind? Not only will she expose Luo Xinya’s secrets, she wouldn’t hesitate to step all over Luo Xinya and climb her way up either. Before Ou Lixue met Luo Anning, she mysteriously disappeared from the film set for a long time. That’s where the problem lies.”
Rong Yan continued for him, “When she disappeared, what did she do and who did she meet? What was the reason for her emotional breakdown? Why did she smear Luo Anning and accuse her of instigating her to frame and harm Luo Xinya…”
“Who’s the one who has a feud with Luo Anning?” Feng Churui asked, voicing everyone’s thoughts.
The three of them immediately looked at each other and chorused in unison, “Luo Xinya!”
As soon as they did, Rong Yan said with disdain, “Luo Xinya? Does she even have what it takes to blow things up to such an extent? Besides, she wouldn’t have known about the First Lady’s whereabouts.”
Seemingly having thought about something, Tang Chao quickly sat up straight and asked, “Is the last name of Luo Xinya’s Mother Li? Her name is Li Yulan, isn’t it?”
Rong Yan kicked him and teased, “Don’t tell me you got bored of those women out there and you’ve decided to have a change of taste? Are you going for exotic women for the sake of the thrill?”
“To h.e.l.l with you! I wouldn’t fall for that old hag even if I’m blind. However, you guys seemed to have forgotten that Li Yulan’s aunt is friends with the First Lady!”
Upon hearing his words, Feng Churui remained silent for a moment while trying to recall all the useful information. “The information states that the First Lady and Li Yulan’s aunt met each other in middle school and they could be considered the best of friends. Later on, they lost contact with each other because the First Lady’s father got promoted and transferred her to another school. Half a year ago, Li Yulan’s aunt was diagnosed with cancer and the two of them reunited because the First Lady really wanted to see her long lost best friend again… ”
The more they a.n.a.lyzed the problem, the more they began to suspect that it was Luo Xinya. If it was not Luo Xinya, then it must be the Luo Family!
The incident took place when the First Lady was present. That was why the case became extremely complicated and tricky even though it could have been dealt with much more simply.
Under the pressure of the First Lady, the mayor of S City would obviously pin Luo Anning as the culprit of murder based on the evidence and eyewitnesses.
In other words, Luo Anning would have been forced to undergo harsh treatment and interrogation, had she been of a humble background.
What society wanted was a conclusion. Based on the evidence and eyewitnesses, they were all feeling outrage over Ou Lixue’s untimely death and were trying to defend her. They wanted Luo Anning to be prosecuted and pay for her crime with her life.
…
In an upscale apartment in London, a handsome and seductive man laid sluggishly on the chaise couch while browsing through the Chinese international news channels using the remote control.
“Young Madam Rong has deliberately murdered C-list movie actress Ou Lixue, who had been pushed off the rooftop of a hospital, resulting in an instant death.”
“Young Madam Rong? Luo Anning?” Kristen muttered and continued with glistened eyes, “Interesting… ”
