After rebirth, my new love and I made it real

After Xu Lan left, Xia Shu stood there in a daze, looking in the direction she left, her chest heaving, as if she had not yet recovered from what had just happened.

"Shushu..." Gu Yichen looked at her with eyes full of pity.

"Ah Chen, I just..." Xia Shu looked at Gu Yichen with tears in her eyes, "Was it too much?"

"I clearly told her not to tell anyone."

Gu Yichen didn't say anything. He took out a handkerchief from his shirt pocket and gently wiped the tears from her face.

"It's okay. It's not your fault."

After all, he didn't expect that Xu Lan, who had always been with Xia Shu, would be so ignorant.

"Achen, do you believe me? I really don't know anything about this."

She cried till she was in tears.

Gu Yichen immediately felt a little guilty.

It was he who blamed her as soon as he entered the room without any explanation. It was he who was careless.

"I've seen the truth." He held her in his arms and soothed her gently, "No matter what happens in the future, I won't blame you right away. I will definitely ask you about it."

Xia Shu would never lie to him. No matter what happened, she would always consider things from other people's perspectives.

Even if Lin Qingran hired someone to hurt her, she still cared about Lin Qingran's reputation and would rather suffer herself than hurt others.

This is the girl he loves.

Kind and innocent.

It is worth it for Gu Yichen to protect her for his entire life.

Suddenly, the cell phone rang.

"I'll take a call."

Gu Yichen walked onto the balcony with his cell phone in hand.

It's the assistant calling.

He thought it was a work call and asked calmly, "What's the matter?"

"Mr. Gu, please take a look at the Internet. Someone has exposed a video that is related to Miss Xia."

"Record?" Gu Yichen frowned.

"It was a video of the night Ms. Xia was stabbed. It was leaked from a paparazzi."

As a well-known popular actress, Xia Shu has never lacked paparazzi following her.

During the time period on the night she was stabbed, the neighborhood’s surveillance camera happened to be out of order.

Therefore, the police did not see Xia Shu being stabbed, but the wound on her hand was real, and she said she saw the faces of the two men.

Later, the police drew a portrait of the murderer based on Xia Shu's description of his appearance, and gradually investigated and finally identified the two suspects and convicted them.

However, during the interrogation, the two murderers refused to admit that they had hurt Xia Shu, and said that they just wanted to snatch the bag from her hand and ran away after getting the bag.

But there were their fingerprints on the knife that stabbed Xia Shu, and this evidence alone was enough to convict them.

Later, when Gu Yichen strongly requested the police to interrogate whether there was a mastermind behind the scenes, the two men insisted that they had the evil intention of robbing money. They also said that it was a random crime. They just saw that Xia Shu was wearing a mask and carrying a branded bag, and they thought she was not an ordinary person, so they took action.

But such a confession could not convince Gu Yichen at all, and he thought of Lin Qingran first.

Only that unscrupulous woman would go so far as to hurt Xia Shu in order to fight for him!

Now tell him that someone accidentally took a picture of that scene, although it was a little late, he still doesn't mind taking a look.

"Boss Gu, now that this video has been exposed, it will be difficult for Miss Xia to clear her name. How should we do public relations next?"

"Whitewash?" Gu Yichen frowned, "Why does Shushu want to whitewash..."

As he said this, his fingertips just happened to click on the video sent by his assistant.

The incident happened at night and the video was shot from a long distance, so it looks a bit blurry.

But Xia Shu's figure is still recognizable in the video.

When the video started, Xia Shu had already started fighting with the two gangsters.

The two men were pulling the bag in her hands, and Xia Shu was struggling desperately.

During the struggle, one of the gangsters suddenly took out a knife.

Seeing this, Xia Shu immediately stopped resisting.

Seeing this, the two men snatched the bag from her hand and ran away.

The knife fell to the ground.

Xia Shu stood there, looking at where the two men left. After a few seconds, she bent down and picked up the knife on the ground.

Then, he lightly cut his arm.

This video, which is less than a minute long, begins with the gangster snatching the bag and completely reconstructs the course of events.

Gu Yichen's eyes changed from confusion to seriousness and then to disbelief as he stared at the video.

Suddenly, he turned his head and stared at Xia Shu, his voice terribly gloomy, "Did you cut the wound on your hand yourself?"

Xia Shu shuddered all over.

The mobile phone in my hand also fell to the ground.

Apparently she also saw the trending searches on Weibo.

As soon as this video was released, in just a few minutes, the entry related to Xia Shu became the number one hot search.

Xia Shu, self-directed and self-acted

Xia Shu looked at Gu Yichen's sinister and terrifying eyes and panicked, "Achen, I..."

Gu Yichen interrupted her coldly, "Don't tell me this video is fake?"

Xia Shu's face was pale. She moved her lips and said with difficulty: "I'm sorry, Achen, I...this video..."

At this point, all explanations are in vain.

Her lips trembled, and she had no way to argue.

Gu Yichen's heart sank to the bottom in an instant.

The video is real, but it is fake that Lin Qingran hired someone to harm Xia Shu.

He didn't expect things to turn out like this.

"Why?" Gu Yichen looked at her with desperate and complicated eyes, and asked angrily, "Why did you do this?"

Xia Shu was frightened by him and trembled all over. She looked at Gu Yichen helplessly, tears streaming down her face. "Ah Chen... I have no choice. Lin Qingran has many people around her. She is not like me because I only have you. I need you more than she does. I just want... I want you to accompany me."

Gu Yichen frowned slightly.

The events of that day came to mind.

That day was Lin Qingran's birthday. The Lin family had never been stingy in celebrating her birthday. The banquet hall was chosen to be the best and most expensive hotel in Beijing. The scene was very grand, and he was also one of the invited guests.

Of course, out of courtesy, he also brought a gift to Lin Qingran.

As soon as he arrived at the banquet hall, he suddenly received a call from Xia Shu, saying that she had been stabbed.

So he left in a hurry without even having time to hand the gift to Lin Qingran.
