Transmigrated into a Parvenu’s Ex-wife in the ‘90s-Chapter 12: Physical Evidence (1)
Chapter 12 - Physical Evidence (1)
“Before we talk, should you get our clothes back first?” Ye Zhiqiang squatted in the corner while covering up his unmentionable.
“Oh? You still know what shame is? Then why did you do this in the first place? If this happened ten years ago, you would have been executed for this.” Shu Jianyang scanned over them before turning to the man with the camera, “How do they look?”
“So amazing. One roll of film wasn’t even enough,” said the man excitedly.
Having heard that, the hearts of Ye Zhiqiang and Li Jiaojiao dropped. Exactly like Shu Jianyang had said, if these pictures were leaked, they would have been dragged through the streets with signs on them ten years ago. If it was during the crack down period, they very well might be executed immediately. Even though the political environment was a little laxer now, it was still very conservative overall. No matter what, they couldn’t let these pictures see the light of day.
Li Jiaojiao was even more scared than Ye Zhiqiang. She may not have attended a great college, but she was still a college graduate after all. As she wasn’t from a prominent family, she was assigned to a not-so-good factory. Many of her colleagues wanted to be transfer to a better unit. She didn’t want to spend her entire life in a factory that may or may not even be able to pay her salary, which was another reason why she was with Ye Zhiqiang.
If word got out about their affair, especially if these pictures were leaked, she would be fired from the factory, her school would delist her, and her life would be over.
The more she thought about it, the more scared she was. Li Jiaojiao wrapped her arms around herself and shivered. She looked nothing like the previous proud woman that had once stood in front of the original owner.
They didn’t give them their clothes back, but one of Shu Jianyang’s men grabbed two towels from the bathroom and threw them onto them, so they could cover up some. Mostly, these men didn’t want to hurt their eyes looking at them.
“This is our family matters after all, Third Brother. Do you think I can talk to Shu Yan alone?” Ye Zhiqiang asked Shu Jianyang very nicely now that he has evidence against him.
Shu Jianyang didn’t say anything ,but turned and looked at Shu Yan. He was just here for her; this was her decision.
Shu Yan nodded, “The wench will leave as well.”
Before Li Jiaojiao walked out, she poked Ye Zhiqiang with her finger and pleadingly looked at him.
“Don’t worry. You go wait for me outside.” Ye Zhiqiang pulled out a few hundred dollars for the wallet that he was somehow able to keep and told her, “Go look for a server and get us some clothes.”
Shu Jianyang didn’t interfere with that but turned and said to Shu Yan, “I will be right outside. Holler if you need me.” He glanced over at Ye Zhiqiang as he spoke, obviously he was partly talking to him as well.
With nobody else left in the room, the atmosphere became suffocating all of a sudden. Shu Yan dragged over a chair and sat down. She leaned against the chair and said, “You want to have a seat?”
Ye Zhiqiang took a deep breath, now that he no longer had the upper hand, he didn’t dare to speak from a higher position. He forced a smile and said, “Shu Yan, did Third Brother force you into this? Is he thinking that he will somehow be able to gain something from our divorce?”
Even now Ye Zhiqiang couldn’t believe that Shu Yan would be here to catch him red-handed or that she has what it takes to do that.
“No, this wasn’t Third Brother’s idea. I reached out to him for help,” said Shu Yan with a smile that wasn’t a smile. “Ye Zhiqiang, you sure you want a divorce, right?”
If it wasn’t that she still looked the same as she did before, even Ye Zhiqiang would think it was someone else sitting in front of him.
