Chapter 220 - The Real Drama (3)

Ruomei and Wen Yaoting froze.

"I mean doesn\'t it sound as too much of a coincidence that a goon came here instead of Wen Yaoting? Jiang Ruiling never meant that her dignity would be compromised, yet a man really tried to harm her. Most important of all, Shen Yang was locked up in the meter room which was by no way an accident. It was on purpose so that he couldn\'t reach her on time…"

Her words managed to instill suspicion in everyone. Suddenly, they cast a doubtful stare at Wen Yaoting who would obviously be the prime suspect of this.

"You! Isn\'t it enough that Jiang Ruiling tried to frame that you are joining in the group too!? This is preposterous!"

Wen Qiang quickly came forward. "Mrs. Jiang. I understand that he is at fault for getting intimate with the waitress and not treating Jiang Ruiling respectfully. But you are going too far. My son would never force a woman."

Lihua said, "Mr. Wen. I also understand that Jiang Ruiling shouldn\'t have taken this step in framing him and as a family member, I do oppose her approach. But will she think of doing this if she didn\'t have the confidence that Wen Yaoting could actually force himself on her? If he could forcibly try to touch her on their date, then why not tonight?"

Wen Yaoting burst in anger. "Jiang Lixue! Don\'t smear my name! I admit I may be a womanizer, but I will never force myself on a woman!"

"He is lying!"

Everybody turned to see a woman with tears in her eyes. Her chest breathlessly heaved up and down.

Wen Yaoting looked at her, stunned. All the color drained away from his face.

The woman came storming in and slapped hard on his cheek. "You have the nerve to lie, you bastard!? Don\'t you have any conscience?"

"Y-you…"

The Old Madam narrowed her eyes. "Who are you?"

"Me? I am an unfortunate woman who has suffered at the hands of this disgusting man!" She trembled as tears streamed down her cheeks.

"I am Mu Qing. I used to work in a cafe and it was my worst luck that this man visited one day. He flirted with me, but I rejected his advances because I already had a boyfriend. But he kept pestering me. He couldn\'t bear it and dragged me into the washroom to kiss me. But I somehow managed to escape…" she gasped, "It was so traumatizing for me. He got furious that I hit him, and he ordered the owner to fire me. I lost my job and then my boyfriend left me too! This bastard filled his ears against me that I seduced him and then tried to play hard to get."

Mu Qing cried her heart out as she retold her agonizing experience.

"He snatched away my job and instigated my boyfriend to leave me. When I lodged a police complaint about his harassment, they refused to take my case! Instead, they offered me compensation to drop it and not offend Wen Yaoting! When I refused, he even threw me out of my rented apartment by bribing the landlady and threatened me that if I remain stubborn, then he will not back out from troubling my Mom and Dad too…"

Wen Yaoting broke out into a cold sweat.

"This man has brought nothing but misery upon me! He will go to any lengths to bed a woman to satisfy his disgusting needs! And if she tried to resist him, he would destroy her life as he did with me!"

"T-this is all lies! Tell me, did Jiang Ruiling bribe you to spread such lies about me?"

Mu Qing looked at him in disbelief. She slapped him on his cheek again, turning it red with her fingerprints. "You fucking bastard! You reduced me to practically live on the streets. I have been suffering ever since you stepped into my life and you say that somebody bribed me? Have you lost your freaking mind!? Nobody has to bribe me! If I could, then I would take a mike and announce it to the whole world just what kind of a filthy man you are!"

At that moment, Jiang Li\'s assistant stepped in. He cleared his throat and brought his attention to the tab he was holding. "Sir," he glanced at Jiang Li, "Mr. Wen Yaoting tried his best to erase the cafe\'s security footage, but I got my hands on it. I think everyone should see the truth for themselves."

He played the video. The timestamp showed seven months back. He fast-forwarded it to the time when Wen Yaoting approached Mu Qing.

Wen Qiang was shocked to see his son arguing with her and then dragging her into the men\'s washroom when there was nobody around them. A few minutes later, a crying Mu Qing came rushing out of the washroom followed by Wen Yaoting who was limping on his foot. It proved Mu Qing\'s claim that she attacked him in self-defense.

The assistant paused it and then showed other evidence of Wen Yaoting bribing the cafe owner and the landlady to make Mu Qing\'s life difficult. There was also a recording of him talking to a police officer to press the case against him.

"The officer recorded this conversation for his safety in case he got implicated in the matter. The officer burned the complaint report on Mr. Wen\'s order."

After so many proofs thrown at his face, Wen Yaoting had nowhere to hide.

Even Lihua couldn\'t believe her luck. She just wanted to prove his involvement in sending the goon to violate Jiang Ruiling. But here his whole shameful history was exposed.

Wow! This is gold!

Jiang Ruiling smiled. "I was right about you. In your drunken state, you would have definitely forced me. If only I could prove it…"

Wen Qiang stepped in front of him and slapped him hard. By that point, his cheek was swollen like hell. "Wen Yaoting! Just what am I hearing!? You dare hide something like this from me!"
