Chapter 523: Face Really Hurts

Then, Li Zhuojia suddenly said: “Well, the cameras over there are placed by the company. We merely borrowed their premise to conduct the recruitment. And thus, to better record the performance of each job applicant, we’ve also installed several hidden cameras throughout the venue. This is not even known to the staff.”

Upon hearing this, a chill went through Mo Shiyun’s entire body.

Then, Li Zhuojia pointed to his surroundings again: “Do you see that lamp? And the socket over there? And the furnishings? They all have hidden cameras installed on them. They’ve recorded everything. And thus, if we check the surveillance footage, we will know what happened here.”

Then, Li Zhuojia turned around to speak to his assistant: “Go to my office and bring my laptop back. I can view the surveillance footage from the cloud.”

Upon hearing this, Mo Shiyun was in a complete panic.

“Don’t report this to the police!” Mo Shiyun cried out, “Just consider this as a gift to her! Just please don’t report this to the police!”

If this matter was reported to the police, her career would be utterly over.

And thus, the police must not be called.

The crowd was incredibly confused when they heard this.

What was this woman saying?

What did she mean by that? Did she just admit to framing the other girl?

Qin Chuan turned around and looked at Mo Shiyun incredulously.

His favorable impression of her turned into ashes in an instant.

Initially, when he chose to believe in Jian Yiling, he hadn’t suspected Mo Shiyun at all.

He assumed that everything was merely a misunderstanding.

He assumed that Mo Shiyun was an optimistic and hardworking woman. It was the type of person that he appreciated.

“Why did you do this?” Qin Chuan asked with a perplexed expression on his face. “Do you know Jian Yiling?”

Qin Chuan didn’t even know that there was a relationship between Mo Shiyun and Jian Yiling.

As things had already reached this point, Mo Shiyun couldn’t hide anything anymore. Even if she didn’t say anything, Jian Yiling would tell him about it.

“Well, remember when I told you my mother and I were framed? After we were framed, we got kicked out of where we were living. Well, that was the Jian family.”

“You...” Qin Chuan started. He did not expect Jian Yiling and Mo Shiyun to be connected in such a way.

Qin Chuan had heard about this from Mo Shiyun.

However, he did not believe that the Jian family would do such a thing.

And thus, Qin Chuan began to doubt Mo Shiyun’s words.

Based on what he had seen with his own eyes, he couldn’t help but doubt her words.

“Well, take a step back and look at the situation. Even if their family wronged you in the first place, you still shouldn’t have done such a thing today.”

“I know that I did the wrong thing,” Mo Shiyun admitted. She knew that she had to admit her mistake right now. Then, she had to say that she wanted to give the card to Jian Yiling as a surprise gift.

As Mo Shiyun admitted her mistake, she basically slapped herself in the face. In fact, in a sense, she also slapped the people who stood up for her in the crowd.

The few people who had just spoken out against Jian Yiling felt that their cheeks were burning hot. It felt as though they had just been slapped a dozen times.

Then, Li Zhuojia asked Mo Shiyun: “Do you admit your mistake then? Do you admit that you put the card into Jian Yiling’s bag?”

“Yes, I admit to those things. I know I did the wrong thing. Please don’t report this matter to the police,” Mo Shiyun begged. She was afraid that Li Zhuojia would make a big deal out of this matter.

Her popularity had just come back. If negative news appeared at this moment, all her efforts would go down the drain.

She and her mother had worked so hard for this. She didn’t want that hope to be extinguished again.

At this moment, Mo Shiyun regretted her impulsive behavior.

She shouldn’t have done such an irrational thing because of her momentary anger.
