Chapter 717 - 707: The Plan
Bi Xia has always been decisive in her actions. After she ruined Bi Qingyun, she directly had Qu Zian find someone to sue Bi Qingyun.No, to be precise, Bi Xia didn’t sue Bi Qingyun, but Bi Jian Country, President Bi of the Xu Family Banquet.
Bi Xia sued Bi Jian Country not for bigamy or fraud, but for deliberate assault and rape.
Because he deliberately assaulted her mother, after she discovered it, she argued with Bi Jian Country, but Bi Jian Country showed no remorse, even claiming to be her father, and then deliberately perpetrated violence again.
During the opening of Xia Family Restaurant, his daughter and he himself had disrupted the restaurant multiple times; Bi Jian Country repeatedly claimed to be Bi Qingyun.
The news spread rapidly throughout Qing City.
For three reasons.
First, the defendant is President Bi of the Xu Family Banquet, a long-time monopoly in Qing City’s food industry.
Second, the person Bi Jian Country intended to assault is Xia Shi, the daughter of Xia Jingshen, the founding chef of Xia Family Restaurant.
Third, and most notably, the plaintiff is Bi Xia.
Although Bi Xia believed she hadn’t entered the entertainment industry, Xu Renfei’s remark that sometimes it’s not up to you resonated. Once exposed with a fan base, your life becomes under scrutiny.
Even if you do nothing.
Bi Xia, after becoming famous from "I Am a High Schooler," coupled with her city-wide top score in the high school entrance exam, gained considerable attention from both students and parents. Furthermore, Bi Xia is now the second direct heir to Xia Family Restaurant.
When the lawsuit news broke, everyone was shocked. Some were gloating, claiming Bi Xia would surely be punished—after all, she had ruined Bi Qingyun’s manhood—but more people were confused and sympathetic.
Indeed, when the court and police suggested Bi Jian Country might be Bi Qingyun, more people felt pity and sympathy for Bi Xia.
[I don’t quite understand, why do you have to make such a big deal out of it?] 007 looked at Bi Xia in the space, [Couldn’t you just put Bi Qingyun in jail?]
Bi Xia fiddled with her pendant, "If it were truly like that, everything we’ve done would be in vain."
[Hmm?] 007 was puzzled.
Bi Xia slowly stood up, waved her hand, and a dance training room appeared in front of her. Looking at herself in the mirror, she raised her chin slightly and asked indifferently, "Who did Bi Qingyun run away with?"
[Xu Liren.]
"Then why did Bi Qingyun change his name and undergo plastic surgery?"
[Probably afraid you’d find him.]
"So here’s the question," Bi Xia smiled, "Who could wield so much power to let him change his name, even deleting him from the household registry?"
[...] 007 suddenly understood, [You’re saying the Xu Family!]
"Exactly," Bi Xia nodded, "Do you think after the Xu Family did this, they wouldn’t fear exposure? Moreover, as Xu Liren’s deeds get uncovered bit by bit through Bi Qingyun, everything will become public. When that happens, do you think the Xu Family can still show their face in Qing City?"
"Therefore, they might secretly sneak Bi Qingyun out of jail, or dispose of him, or once again disguise him and throw him somewhere else, but they definitely won’t let him return to Qing City."
"In that case... why did I do so much, endure so much, for what?"
Tapping her finger on her lip, she suddenly snapped her fingers, and intense music started playing. Although Bi Xia had not learned dancing, it didn’t stop her from watching others dance.
She gently nodded in rhythm with the music, her red lips gradually curled into a sinister smile, murmuring softly, "How could I possibly let them... escape so easily..."
