"Isn't that the man who got involved with Lin Li?"
A reporter pointed at the large screen and said.
Jiang Shuqin spoke with certainty, "Look, these two men are coming over. Soon, it’ll be Lin Li leading Lin Xuan into the room, and then they’ll follow, knocking Lin Li unconscious."
"Or maybe they’ll knock him out right outside the hotel room before dragging him inside."
The thought of what was about to happen made Jiang Shuqin’s anger rise uncontrollably.
This Lin Xuan! How vile!
To think he’d come up with such a method to deal with Lin Li!
But it didn’t matter—soon, Lin Xuan would pay for what he’d done.
The reporters found Jiang Shuqin’s words quite convincing.
"I really think it might have been Lin Xuan’s plan. Hiring two men would make sense if they were meant to deal with Lin Li, who’s now a eunuch. If Lin Li had hired people to deal with Lin Xuan, he’d have chosen women instead."
The reporters’ eyes gleamed with excitement.
Lin Xuan was the CEO of Tianmu Group, a high-profile figure with the looks of a prince charming in many girls’ eyes.
If this really was Lin Xuan’s scheme against Lin Li, the scandal would reach unprecedented heights.
What a pity for such a business prodigy and computer genius.
They couldn’t help but shake their heads.
In the inpatient ward of Yun City First Central Hospital.
"No, this isn’t right."
Lin Li stared at the live stream and shook his head.
At this point, Older Chen and Second Chen shouldn’t have been here.
They only came after he made that phone call.
What was going on?
Lin Li frowned deeply.
Older Chen and Second Chen walked straight up to Lin Li.
They began talking.
The surveillance camera was too far away to pick up their words clearly.
The reporters looked puzzled.
"What’s happening here? Why does Lin Li seem so familiar with them?"
"Could it be that Lin Li actually wanted these two men to go after Lin Xuan, only to end up being outmaneuvered by him?"
Jiang Shuqin reacted fiercely to their remarks.
"What nonsense are you spouting? My son would never associate with such men! Besides, he’s kind-hearted—he wouldn’t even step on an ant! Even though Lin Xuan has repeatedly targeted him, Lin Li still considers him a brother. How could he resort to such underhanded tactics against Lin Xuan?"
Wouldn’t even step on an ant?
The reporters exchanged strange looks.
Wasn’t that description a bit too saintly and hypocritical?
Ants were everywhere—if someone refused to step on one, they’d never walk anywhere.
"I’m certain those two men approached Lin Li first to lower his guard. Then, they’d knock him out without anyone noticing," Jiang Shuqin declared confidently.
The reporters nodded.
Her explanation made sense.
But the truth would soon become clear as they kept watching.
In the surveillance footage:
Older Chen and Second Chen talked with Lin Li for a while.
Suddenly, they burst into laughter over something.
Older Chen said loudly, "Lin Li, sweetheart, let’s forget about your brother for now. How about we go have some fun?"
His voice carried clearly despite the distance from the camera.
The reporters: !!!
Did they just call Lin Li "sweetheart"?
And Lin Li in the footage showed no resistance at all.
Their expressions turned odd.
Wasn’t Lin Li supposed to be the victim here? From the looks of it, he seemed more than willing.
Jiang Shuqin froze.
"No, no, no!" In the hospital room, Lin Li’s emotions suddenly flared.
"This isn’t how it happened! I never spoke to them face-to-face in the hotel, and they definitely never called me 'sweetheart'!"
What was going on?
He had only contacted them by phone, and then Lin Xuan’s men knocked him out.
When he woke up, Older Chen and Second Chen were kneeling before Lin Xuan, who sat on the sofa like an emperor in control.
This wasn’t what the surveillance showed at all!
Had the footage been tampered with?
But wasn’t it said that current technology couldn’t alter surveillance videos?
Even with his own formidable computer skills, he couldn’t modify surveillance footage—let alone hack into the hotel’s system beforehand.
Then it hit him—Lin Xuan’s unparalleled expertise in computers.
It had to be Lin Xuan. He must have hacked the hotel’s backend and altered the footage.
No wonder Lin Xuan had been so calm, even encouraging Jiang Shuqin to check the surveillance.
He had prepared everything in advance.
Checking the surveillance wasn’t a risk for Lin Xuan—he was waiting for Lin Li to fall right into his trap.
A wave of panic surged through Lin Li.
He sensed things were spiraling out of control.
"This can’t go on." Lin Li shook his head, his face pale.
He had to contact Jiang Shuqin and stop her from letting others see the rest of the video.
Frantically, he dialed her number.
"Lin Li, what’s wrong?" Jiang Shuqin answered immediately.
"Mom, turn off the surveillance! Now!" Lin Li shouted.
"Alright, I’ll shut it off right away." Sensing the urgency, Jiang Shuqin quickly agreed.
After hanging up, she rushed toward the computer.
But a sharp-eyed reporter blocked her path.
"Ms. Jiang, what are you doing?" the reporter asked.
Jiang Shuqin took a deep breath, forcing composure. "On second thought, Lin Xuan is also my son. I believe this matter should be resolved privately. There’s no need for everyone to see the footage—it might harm Lin Xuan’s reputation."
The reporter sneered. "A moment ago, you wanted Lin Xuan to pay. Now you’re suddenly concerned about him? Seems to me you’re trying to protect Lin Li’s reputation, not Lin Xuan’s."
Jiang Shuqin’s expression darkened. "This surveillance involves both Lin Li and Lin Xuan—it’s a family matter. It’s my footage, and I decide who gets to see it. You have no right to interfere."
The reporter smirked. "Jiang Shuqin, just like you told Lin Xuan earlier—if you won’t show us, does that mean you’re hiding something?"
"N-no, I’m not," Jiang Shuqin stammered.
"You just spoke to Lin Li on the phone, didn’t you? He must have told you to turn it off."
This reporter had been standing closest and heard the name "Lin Li."
The moment the call ended, Jiang Shuqin had lunged for the computer—who else could have given the order?
Hearing this, the other reporters began murmuring among themselves.
"Now that he mentions it, this does seem suspicious. Lin Li must be guilty and trying to cover it up."
Their eyes lit up with excitement.
It looked like Lin Xuan was in the clear.
As for Lin Li—whatever came next was bound to be explosive.
