Chapter 1367: The Greater The Pressure, The Greater The Rebellion

“I hate him, but you’ve also heard of love born from hate. You’ve heard of Stockholm syndrome, right?” Cai Shengnan raised her chin proudly. “Why else would she have asked me to call you to talk about admitting to a misdemeanor? This is an exchange. Everyone wins. If she really hates your fiancé to death, she would already be spreading the word on Weibo.”

Gu Nianzhi’s face darkened.

She didn’t believe a single word about the dress.

No matter who the dirty thing on the dress belonged to, it had nothing to do with Huo Shaoheng. That was how she believed in the man she loved unconditionally.

However, just as Cai Shengnan had said, if they really wanted to pour the dirty water on Weibo, it would not be “a basin”of dirty water, but a basin of dirty water from the Pacific Ocean.

Huo Shaoheng wouldn’t be able to wash it off even if he wanted to.

It was undeniable that Luo Jialan’s rumor had her own unique logic behind it.

According to the information from the court, 75% of the cases where minors were raped were committed by people who knew them. They were all relatives (direct and distant) , friends, and neighbors…

Therefore, many people wouldn’t hesitate to believe what Luo Jialan said, because she really hit a sore spot for many people.

The kind of people who used the sympathy and pain of others to spread rumors was especially hateful.

Because they not only exploited the sympathy of passers-by, but also blocked the way for the real victims to seek justice.

People like her were even more despicable than the child crying wolf.

That was because the child had only harmed himself. However, this kind of rumor hurt not only the innocent, but also the real victims, as well as the people’s confidence in social justice.

However, the current law was far from enough to punish those who created trouble by creating rumors. This led to the endless occurrence of such cases. The cost of creating rumors was extremely low, but the benefits were huge. That was the reality that made people helpless.

Gu Nianzhi took a deep breath and carefully thought about the consequences. She almost shuddered.

She heard herself say slowly, “Let me think about it. I can’t accept this evidence all of a sudden.”

“I understand. When I first heard it, I was also very shocked. But my client said that this was her last resort. If even this doesn’t work, she doesn’t want to live anymore.” Cai Shengnan pretended to be very easy to talk to. She pretended to be lenient and said, “How about this, I’ll give you one night. Make up your mind, and I’ll call you at 8:00 tomorrow morning. I won’t wait until the deadline.”

If Luo Jialan really committed suicide after this, then the hat would be firmly on Huo Shaoheng’s head.

Gu Nianzhi was furious when she heard this. She couldn’t wait to slap her in the face.

It was such a big deal, but she had only been given one night to think about it, and she acted like she was being merciful.

Did she really think she had heaven-defying abilities?!

Wasn’t this an obvious way to make her yield?

But Gu Nianzhi was like a spring. The more you pressured her, the more damage you would suffer from her rebellion.

So even though Cai Shengnan had only given her one night, Gu Nianzhi had no intention of giving up.

She pretended to be flustered and said, “How can one night be enough? You have to give me at least three days!”

“Three days? Haha, I’m sorry, I said one night and that’s final. When you were in a hurry to sue my client for intentional homicide, you didn’t give us any leeway.” Cai Shengnan hung up the phone, then she also blocked Gu Nianzhi for the time being so that she wouldn’t be able to harass her at night.

She would just have to wait until eight o’clock in the morning to release Gu Nianzhi’s number and give her a call anyway.

Luo Jialan smiled at Cai Shengnan and gave her a thumbs up. “Lawyer Cai, you looked so cool just now!”

“You flatter me. I was just doing my job as a lawyer, that’s all.” Cai Shengnan pretended to be modest.

She looked down at the plastic-wrapped dress and asked curiously,”… is this true?”

Luo Jialan giggled. “What do you think?”

“If it’s true, you should have taken it out and given it to Grandfather Huo. You could have just asked Huo to marry you.” Cai Shengnan shook her head. “Even though I’m your lawyer, I have to say that this is too risky. What if the other party is short-sighted and insists on going to court? What would you do?”

Cai Shengnan had long felt that if this was true, no matter who had raped Luo Jialan, she wouldn’t have been able to hold back for 12 years and only take out this dress now.

From Cai Shengnan’s understanding, Luo Jialan wasn’t the type of person who wouldn’t dare fight back after being bullied.

Therefore, she was certain that the thing on this dress had nothing to do with Huo Shaoheng. As for whose it was, it had nothing to do with her. Cai Shengnan didn’t want to ask.

She also didn’t want to embarrass herself by sending something that was obviously fake to the court.

It was fine to scare Gu Nianzhi, but if she really brought the obviously fake thing to court, so what if Weibo’s public opinion won?

Luo Jialan was the one to benefit, but Cai Shengnan didn’t benefit at all. She might even become a laughingstock in the legal world.

Ordinary people didn’t understand this sort of thing, but people in the legal world knew everything.

Luo Jialan supported herself with her hands and said nonchalantly, “There’s nothing I can do. I won’t be at a disadvantage even if I go to court. At most, I’ll die, and they won’t be able to have a good life.”

Even Cai Shengnan felt she paled in comparison to her “fight-to-the-death” stance.

Luo Jialan looked down at the cappuccino in front of her and smiled coldly.

She wanted to take everything away from her and send her to prison for the rest of her life?

Haha, she was overthinking things.

If she ended up being stripped of everything, penniless, and imprisoned for the rest of her life, what was the big deal about smearing Huo Shaoheng’s name?

Huo Shaoheng would only be scolded a few times, but she would have to pay for it for the rest of her life!

What right did Gu Nianzhi have to sit back and enjoy the fruits of her labor?!



After the call ended, Gu Nianzhi called Cai Shengnan a few more times, but couldn’t get through.

In the end, she had no choice but to follow the little app she had put in earlier to find Cai Shengnan’s phone. She found out that she had indeed blocked her number.

She wasn’t giving her a way out. She was certain that she would give in at eight o’clock tomorrow morning…

Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and furrowed her brows. She typed quickly on her laptop.

Her heart was filled with anger.

She wanted to play dirty, didn’t she?

Just because she didn’t play dirty didn’t mean she doesn’t know how to!

The app that had been installed in Cai Shengnan’s phone in advance was actually a Trojan horse app. She had used the app to not only take control of Cai Shengnan’s phone, but had also traced the address book in her phone to find her father, Cai Susumin’s private number.

Gu Nianzhi raised an eyebrow.

Cai Shengnan, it’s time you had a taste of what it feels like to have the person you care about the most threatened…

Gu Nianzhi controlled Cai Shengnan’s phone and sent a text message with a Trojan horse app to her father, Cai Susumin’s private number.

It was about nine o’clock in the morning in America, on the other side of the ocean.

Cai Susumin held a cup of coffee in his hand and entered his office to get ready for the day’s work.

He heard his phone ring and took it out to take a look. It was a text message from his daughter, Cai Shengnan.

There was nothing in the message except that she missed him very much.

Cai Susumin shook his head and laughed. His daughter had always been very independent and rarely acted like a needy child. He swiped open his phone and replied with a text message: Daddy misses you too.

He put away his personal phone and picked up his work phone. He started to read emails, text messages, and private messages.

Cai Susumin swiped open his phone and opened the text message to reply. Gu Nianzhi’s Trojan Horse app entered Cai Susumin’s phone and quickly took control of his phone.

Cai Susumin didn’t look at his personal phone much during the day when he was working, so he gave Gu Nianzhi ample time to operate.

Gu Nianzhi flipped through Cai Susumin’s phone, and her eyes widened.

She had actually found the contact information of the congressman, Mason.

He was the congressman from Maine who had set up a private scholarship at Columbia University in the United States and had only given it to the daughter of the prosecutor from the Procuratorate!

Huo Shaoheng and the others had investigated many things before, but they hadn’t been able to find any personal connection between Cai Susumin and Mason. There had been no trace of any financial transactions.

Gu Nianzhi looked at Cai Susumin’s phone for a while, but was unable to find any connection between him and Mason beyond official business.

Time ticked by, and soon it was eleven o’clock in the evening.

Xiao Ye came out of her room and went to the kitchen to get some water. She was a little surprised to see the light coming out from under Gu Nianzhi’s bedroom door.

She knocked on Gu Nianzhi’s door. “Miss Gu, are you still awake?”

She had been saying that she was sleepy since eight o’clock, but she was still awake at eleven o’clock.

Gu Nianzhi raised her voice in the bedroom. “I have something to do. Xiao Ye, you can go to sleep first.”

Xiao Ye saw that she was fine, so she didn’t ask any more questions and went back to her bedroom to sleep.

Gu Nianzhi wasn’t sleepy at all. Her eyes were bright as she followed Cai Susumin’s phone and hacked into representative Mason’s private phone.

These people had many phones, but their public phone numbers were like public accounts. Many of them weren’t even managed by themselves.

Only their private phone numbers were truly useful numbers.

However, these private phone numbers usually weren’t known by people besides close friends and family.

So while the Special Operations Forces’ field personnel were still trying to find evidence, Gu Nianzhi had already “beat them to it”.

This time, Gu Nianzhi realized that she had seen something incredible!

She saw that there were a few electronic boarding passes in the trash can of Mason’s phone that hadn’t been deleted in time. The names of the planes displayed on them had completely shocked Gu Nianzhi.

Lolita Express! (Lolita Express)

The destination of the flight was the famous Orgy Island in the Caribbean Sea!

Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. What a pleasant surprise.

Gu Nianzhi had an idea. She didn’t waste any more time on Mason and Cai Susumin’s phones. She directly found the special private flight nicknamed Lolita Express and searched for the passenger list in their flight records.

It was indeed easier to search for the passenger list than it was for her to search through Cai Susumin and Mason’s phone records.

Unsurprisingly, she found the names of Mason and Cai Susumin in the passenger list of that private flight.

After confirming that Mason and Cai Susumin had indeed taken the infamous flight to the even more infamous Orgy Island, Gu Nianzhi returned to Mason’s phone.

This time, she had cracked the cloud account and password on Mason’s phone.

After logging into the cloud account, Gu Nianzhi looked at the unsightly photos and small videos, as well as the hard-to-find evidence of financial transactions, and smiled coldly.
