Chapter 117: If You Don’t Like It, Just Do It!
Being summoned to this presidential suite once more, Xia Yinian’s heart was resistant.Having witnessed his authority on the deck just now, she didn’t want to see him at all.
Although he intended to stand up for her, a man’s way of doing things is so direct, never bothering with the details.
All he knew was to use his power to suppress, and even if everyone hated her, they wouldn’t dare to do anything excessive.
But what he didn’t know was that because of his power, she had now become the thorn in everyone’s side.
When she was no longer "favored", there would certainly be countless hidden enemies, all kinds of devils and demons coming together to harm her.
Surviving in this kind of grand mansion was really difficult, sigh...
"What kind of look is that towards me?" Gu Beicheng narrowed his eyes, staring at her small face that dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, "Still angry?"
"How dare I?" Xia Yinian pouted her lips, knowing she couldn’t possibly convince this man.
In his dictionary of life, principles were always clear and straightforward - if you don’t like it, just do it!
But she did not think so.
"You think you can appease others and they will be grateful to you later, even start to like you?" Gu Beicheng did not think so.
Xia Yinian had nothing to say, even if she did not seek revenge, those who truly wanted to deal with her would not let go.
So, if she could make a statement, why not?
Is that what he meant?
"Why don’t you just find the person who pushed me off the cliff directly?" She turned her face away, feeling a bit stifled in her chest today.
"There aren’t many surveillance cameras on the roundabout, and almost none on the beach. At the time of your incident, except for the people on the cruise ship and those within the surveillance range, dozens of others cannot be completely ruled out."
"There are forty-six people who were not within the surveillance range, more than ten people have alibis, and there are over thirty people left without alibis."
Gu Beicheng crossed his legs, looking at her: "If you want to bring these thirty-plus people out for interrogation one by one, I can have them come over right now."
The more Xia Yinian listened, the more she couldn’t believe her own eyes.
It was just a short half-day, and he had already found out so much?
He had actually gone through all the surveillance footage.
Too bad there’s no surveillance on the beach, making it quite difficult to investigate thoroughly.
"Tell me what you heard and saw back then, I will keep having people investigate this matter," Gu Beicheng said, seriously.
Is he really going to continue the investigation?
Xia Yinian bit her lip: "At that time, I saw someone dragging Taotao into the woods... but that person was not Taotao."
Either she saw wrongly due to blurred vision, or it was arranged by someone familiar with her.
Even if she didn’t say it, Gu Beicheng should know.
She said, "After chasing in, I got lost in the woods, until nightfall, I heard a man and a woman talking, as if they were plotting against someone."
"I didn’t hear clearly who they were plotting against; it might have been a coincidence, or it might have been me, but then I was discovered."
"My heart panicked, and I ran away, not knowing I would run up to the cliff, and then, I... was pushed down."
She felt it very clearly, she was truly pushed down, not just a misstep.
Murder! Who would dare to do such a severe act, what kind of deep hatred could it be?
"I’m not acquainted with those girls, including He Yanyan today, but looking at He Yanyan, she doesn’t seem like the type who would have the courage to do such a thing."
"You clearly knew, but if I didn’t stop you, were you really going to throw her into the sea?"
