Chapter 463: Shooting Yourself in the Foot
Xu Xiangsi made an appointment to meet Yalan, at the cafΓ© on East Street.
Half an hour later.
In an elegant and quiet position by the window, Xu Xiangsi supported his cheek with one hand, pinched the spoon and gently stirred the coffee in the cup, waiting quietly in the afternoon sun.
After a short time, Arlan arrived as promised.
Trendy sunglasses cover half of the face, revealing bright red lips and delicate chin, luxurious fur coats look full of temperament, and red high heels make a crisp sound.
Xu Xiangsi raised her eyes to look at Yalan, who was taking a seat on the sofa on the other side of the table.
"I thought you wouldn't come." Xu Xiangsi said.
The glamorous woman with outstanding temperament slowly took off her sunglasses, her eyes were full of ridicule, and the corners of her lips outlined arrogance.
"Heh, I know what you're looking for me to do, so I'm here."
"You know"
"Of course."
"Then tell me, what I asked you to do out," Xu Xiangsi asked.
Arlan shrugged slightly, "That's not easy. I've already filed charges against you, and your charges have been basically confirmed, and you don't want to go to jail, so you want to beg me to let you go. β
Xu Xiangsi pretended to be surprised, "Yalan, you are really smart." However, the word "ask" is not appropriate. β
"Well, you're not going to beg me," Arlan raised an eyebrow.
Xu Xiangsi didn't say anything more, silently took out something from his bag, and pushed it in front of Yalan against the table.
It's a black card.
"There are 50 million in this, as long as you can drop the charges against me, I will compensate you for this, and I can also apologize to you."
Hearing this, Arlan sneered.
Xu Xiangsi asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"I laugh, naturally, because you're ridiculous."
Yalan pretended to gesture, and his fingertips touched his earlobe, "Do you know how much my diamond earrings cost My watch, my necklace, and my clothes, and even perfume Xu Acacia, do you think I'm short of money?"
Xu Xiangsi's momentum weakened a little, "I didn't mean that, I know you are not short of money, but I can only use this method to dissipate your anger." β
"No, there's no need. Do you know, Xu Xiangsi, I'm already dead now, you have to go to prison after giving birth, and I have nothing left, Leng Mo also hates me, what's the use of asking for these external objects?"
Xu Xiangsi was silent.
Arran continued, "We have been fighting for so long, but we have finally fallen to the point where we are now losing both sides, you say, who is to blame?"
"Blame me." Xu Xiangsi lowered his head and whispered.
"You also know" Yalan laughed angrily, "If you are willing to let go and leave Leng Mo obediently, how can things be like this"
"Now, it's useless to talk about it. Since you refuse to drop the charges against me, well, I will have to go to jail obediently. β
Xu Xiangsi silently took back the card, and his tone could not hide his disappointment.
Aran looked at her pale face, and felt a little happy inexplicably.
She changed her words, "Xu Xiangsi, in fact, I'm not as bad as you think." You don't want to go to jail, now give you a chance. β
"What" Xu Xiangsi suddenly raised his eyes.
Yalan wrapped her hands around her chest, her two slender jade legs overlapping in a proud arc, and she lifted her chin slightly.
"Please."
"What"
"As long as you plead with me now in good faith, and may I be pleased, I will drop the charges against you."
"You're a little too much, Yalan," Xu Xiangsi frowned.
"Okay, since you don't have any sincerity at all, then I don't think we need to talk about it."
With that, Arlan stood up.
"Don't" Xu Xiangsi hurriedly called her, "Don't go." β
Arlan sat back slowly, the corners of her lips raised haughtily, "Please, you have to make me happy." β
Xu Xiangsi bit her lip unwillingly, and the humiliation not only spread on her pale face, but also occupied her heart, and her hands hidden in her sleeves pinched and pinched.
"I beg you, please drop the charges against me, I don't want to go to jail, I can't go to jail, please."
She endured the humiliation and said.
Yalan smiled even more, "Look at the way you look now, you are embarrassed, where is the arrogance on weekdays?"
"Now, it's time for you to drop the charges against me."
Arlan shook his head, "That's not going to work. β
"Why" Xu Xiangsi was slightly emotional, "You asked me to beg you, and I begged too, do you want to speak without counting?"
"I told you you had to make me happier, and as a result, I'm still not happy." Arlan smiled gloomily.
"You"
Xu Xiangsi's little face immediately turned cold, "Yalan, you deliberately play with me"
"Yes, I'm just playing with you. I tell you, I, I hate you to the bone, and you think that if you ask me, you will appease my hatred for you."
Xu Xiangsi was stunned for a few seconds and laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Hate me to the bone, it seems that you really hate me, and it makes you very happy to frame me like this."
"Yes, I just want to frame you and let you go to prison on trumped-up charges, I like to see your desperate appearance at a loss, because it is really relieved."
Xu Xiangsi gritted his silver teeth and said angrily, "Even if you frame me, it won't change the fact that you committed suicide." The verdict has not yet been pronounced, the police will definitely find out the truth and give me justice, Yalan, don't be too happy. β
"There is no truth. With no hotel surveillance, no one can tell when you came in and out, and there are still your fingerprints on the knife, so now I say that you are a murderer, then you are a murderer. β
Hearing this, Xu Xiangsi just smiled.
"Awesome, Arran. But you forgot what I just said, don't rejoice too soon. β
Arran frowned, "What"
"Look, what is this"
Xu Xiangsi took out a voice recorder from his pocket and said with a smile, "I'm really sorry, what you said just now is all in it." β
Yalan was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed suddenly.
"Xu Xiangsi, you calculate me"
"You calculate me, why can't I calculate you now, you can't frame me."
Arran looked at the recorder in her hand and sneered.
"Your ideas are as naΓ―ve as ever. What can a mere recording illustrateDon't forget, if the recording material wants to be evidence, it must ensure that the source is legitimate. β
Xu Xiangsi said, "This is what you said personally, and it is very legal." β
Arran scoffed, "I didn't say it voluntarily, I was under your threat. As long as I say so, whether it is legal or not is debatable, let alone evidence. β
Xu Xiangsi put away the recorder and sighed softly.
"I knew you would say that. But Arlan, I really didn't threaten you. β
As soon as the words fell, I saw her slowly walking towards the adjacent table not far away.
A man in a white suit has his back to this side, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, just a back, exuding a gentle and elegant temperament.
Xu Xiangsi asked with a smile, "Are you right, witness?"
Yalan narrowed her eyes and looked over, frowning suspiciously, "Witness"
The man slowly lowered his glass, leaned over, raised his hand to dust the folds on his suit, turned around and smiled elegantly.
"I am her witness, and I can attest that you have not been threatened in any way."
"You're not," Arran was stunned.
This man turned out to be the mayor of this coastal city, Ji Weiyang
Now, Yalan understands everything.
Xu Xiangsi asked her out today, where is to beg her to give up the accusation, this is a bureau, a trap, and a trap
"Xu Xiangsi, you are waiting for me here" Yalan's face turned blue.
"Not bad, how is it, isn't it a surprise" Xu Xiangsi smiled evilly.
"You're well prepared"
"Thanks for the compliment. Plus, I have good news for you. Xu Xiangsi continued, "Leng Mo has found other evidence, evidence that I am not the murderer. β
"You lied to people, how could you possibly find evidence," Yalan looked incredulous.
"You underestimate Leng Mo's ability too much. But at the end of the day, I have to thank you for being a die-hard fan. β
"Fans"
"yes. Across the street from the hotel you're renting, there's always been a loyal fan secretly filming you, and his footage proves my innocence. β
Yalan's expression changed and changed, and he asked in a cold voice, "Since you have found evidence, why bother asking me to come out and set up such a bureau?"
"I was said to be naΓ―ve just now, why did you ask such a childish thing?"
"You"
Xu Xiangsi smiled and said, "Just with that video, I can clear my suspicion, but I can't bring you down." So, I'm going to have to ask you to tell me the truth about the false accusation against me, and since you've officially charged me, I can countersue you for false accusation."
Seeing that Yalan's face was becoming more and more ugly, Ji Weiyang spoke out in a timely manner.
"According to the law, fabricating facts to falsely accuse and frame others, with the intention of causing others to be criminally prosecuted, shall be sentenced to up to three years in prison."
Seeing Yalan's increasingly pale face, Xu Xiangsi sneered.
"Yalan, I didn't expect you to put me in prison, but now I can't escape prison. Your accusations against me have become a weapon for me to counter your false accusations, which is called lifting a stone and shooting myself in the foot."
As soon as he spoke, Yalan's face was as white as paper.
It was as if the strength in her body had been drained in an instant, and she stumbled back a few steps, almost falling.
Her red lips trembled, and her face was like a layer of ash, "Xu Xiangsi, there is really you." β
Xu Xiangsi smiled, "A woman like you, with a good skin and a mind full of insidious and despicable bad ideas, will eventually eat the bitter fruit." β
"Huh." Arlan smiled bitterly, "Okay, you won." β
"It's good to know." Xu Xiangsi said proudly, "Now, if you don't want to go to prison, just kneel down and beg me, if you don't get in, I will consider sparing you." β
"Don't be delusional." Yalan smiled self-deprecatingly, "I'm not even afraid of death, I'm afraid of going to jail"
"Yes, you don't seem to be afraid, then I'll give you a suggestion."
Xu Xiangsi slowly walked to the muddy woman, patted her shoulder with her little hand, and whispered in Yalan's ear with her red lips.
"Since you're so backbone, you might as well cut your wrist again. However, this time it's better to find a secluded place, and push a little harder, so that you don't let people save you again. β
After speaking, Xu Xiangsi picked up his bag and left briskly.
As soon as she was gone, Arran sat down with a pale face, as if her soul had been drained.
