164: An Oscar-worthy performance, a perfect deception
Bai Yuyan wanted to see the photo.
This immediately drew the attention of everyone present.
This was...
...the most crucial piece of evidence!
Unexpectedly,
the anticipated photo did not appear.
Instead, what appeared was a half-naked photo of a muscular man!
What the heck... isn't this too shocking?
In broad daylight,
to make a beautiful woman look at this kind of photo.
Especially since,
this muscular man was the person she liked.
That strength, those lines, that intense male hormone!
It made her pulse race and her heart flutter!
She almost lost her composure!
At this very moment,
under the gaze of everyone present,
if Bai Yuyan showed
even the slightest flaw, people would notice the anomaly.
Chen Yang's plan would instantly fall apart.
In this critical moment,
Chen Yang made his move!
"You'd better stay calm and not say anything!"
"Pretend that what you saw was the photo you wanted to see."
Chen Yang's lips didn't move.
Yet, the sound magically entered Bai Yuyan's ear.
Only she could hear it.
Secret Sound Transmission.
This was Chen Yang's divine secret technique.
As expected of a surgical expert and Associate Chief Physician.
Bai Yuyan's psychological fortitude was indeed impressive!
She adjusted her emotions in one second.
She pretended to have seen the correct photo.
She suddenly turned around,
and glared fiercely at Bai Yuzhu.
"How could you... be so vicious?"
"That is... your... own brother!"
Her voice was choked and hoarse!
Filled with anger, doubt, and resentment!
At this moment,
Bai Yuyan's acting skills were fully deployed.
Even Chen Yang couldn't help but want to applaud and cheer.
She was even more talented than Best Actress Su Youlan.
It would truly be a pity if she didn't pursue acting!
In reality,
Bai Yuyan was utterly panicked inside!
Not because she was afraid of ruining the performance,
but because she genuinely felt uncertain.
Chen Yang truly did not have that crucial photo in his possession.
If they were exposed,
wouldn't it all turn into a farce?
Fortunately,
Bai Yuyan and Chen Yang cooperated flawlessly.
Bai Yuzhu, who had been very confident,
suddenly started to panic!
Could it be... that Sister Liu really took a picture?
And left the photo behind?
Bai Yuzhu, of course, knew her elder sister very well.
In that moment just now,
Bai Yuyan's
shock upon seeing the photo could definitely not have been faked!
But,
how could Bai Yuzhu admit defeat just like that?
Without seeing the photo, could she accept the blame?
Absolutely not!
"You're talking nonsense!"
"There can't be any photo!"
"Do you dare show me the photo?"
Bai Yuzhu insisted on her demand, holding firm.
She wouldn't give up until the very last moment.
Swoosh!
A greater challenge arrived.
Chen Yang hadn't spoken yet,
but Bai Yuyan nervously clenched her fists.
She stared intently at Chen Yang.
She wanted him to refuse, but didn't know how to speak up.
No one was clearer than her
about what was on Chen Yang's phone.
That thing...
Could Bai Yuzhu be allowed to see it?
Chen Yang, however, was completely unconcerned.
He still looked full of confidence, calm and composed.
He directly handed the phone over.
"Fine, I'll let you see it!"
"Hearing is believing, but seeing is knowing."
"In the face of the facts, how will you deny it?"
In an instant,
Bai Yuyan's heart nearly leaped out of her throat.
It was pounding wildly!
Her palms were sweating profusely from nervousness!
She really wanted to snatch the phone back immediately and prevent Bai Yuzhu from seeing it.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd,
she didn't dare act rashly.
If she truly snatched it away, the situation would become suspicious.
It would be tantamount to
proclaiming one's guilt!
Chen Yang's lie would instantly collapse.
On the other side,
as the person involved,
Bai Yuzhu was even more nervous and panicked!
Chen Yang was being so generous and open.
What did that mean?
It meant he was completely confident, and the evidence was ironclad!
It was over!
Bai Yuzhu's hands began to tremble.
Her movements became clumsy.
Of course,
even if she were more agile, it would be useless.
What kind of skills did Chen Yang possess?
Everything was under his control.
Without his permission,
Bai Yuzhu could never get hold of the phone.
Sure enough,
just as Bai Yuzhu was about to touch the phone,
he pulled it back.
Bai Yuzhu was furious!
She felt a deep sense of loss and being played!
"What do you mean?"
"You promised to let me see it, why did you take it back?"
"Are you guilty, afraid that I'll expose your lie?"
It must be said,
the little girl's guess was spot on.
Her tongue was also quite sharp.
Unfortunately,
Chen Yang was certainly no pushover.
Or rather,
this was the tactic he had planned all along.
Since he didn't have the photo,
how could he possibly let her genuinely look at it?
"I changed my mind, so what?"
"How can I be assured handing such crucial physical evidence over to you, a suspect?"
"What if you delete it or smash the phone?"
"Where would I go to seek justice?"
"Do you dare say that, in that moment just now, you didn't have that exact intention?"
Chen Yang's deduction was logical and reasonable.
It made everyone realize the truth!
Indeed.
This photo really couldn't be shown to Bai Yuzhu!
Bai Yuzhu was dying of frustration.
Damn it!
How did he know my plan?
What a pity!
It was almost within her grasp.
If she had just pretended to accidentally smash the phone,
all those lousy photos would be destroyed without a trace.
That would be the end of it!
Just then,
Li Yao had a flash of inspiration and stepped forward.
"Since Sister Yuzhu can't look, why don't you let me take a glance?"
"Someone needs to prove that this photo actually exists."
"It can't just be whatever the two of you claim, right?"
He walked up to Chen Yang and extended his right hand.
Directly demanding it.
But he had already made up his mind.
As soon as the phone was in his hand,
with his skill, just a slight exertion of force
could easily shatter the circuit board and electronic components inside.
At that point,
what photo could be seen on a broken phone?
Sister Yuzhu, regardless of whether she harmed anyone or not,
would be innocent!
Unfortunately,
how could Chen Yang not see through Li Yao's little scheme?
To put it bluntly,
the moment he stuck out his butt, Chen Yang knew he wasn't planning anything good!
Chen Yang sneered.
He immediately withdrew the phone.
"You won't do!"
"You and Bai Yuzhu are cut from the same cloth!"
"You are capable of doing everything she can do, and perhaps even more contemptible things!"
"I cannot let you see it!"
Li Yao was so angry he almost spat blood.
He wanted to curse him out, but the setting seemed inappropriate.
He had no choice but to suppress his fury.
He glared fiercely at Chen Yang and returned to his seat.
He sighed internally.
Sister Yuzhu, this is all your brother can do for you.
At this moment,
Bai Yuntian finally couldn't sit still any longer.
He couldn't help but speak:
"Chen Yang, can you show the photo to me?"
Chen Yang was stunned for a moment.
Then he smiled brightly, like a blooming flower.
"Of course, you are no problem."
"You are Bai Yuzhu's father, and Yulong's father."
"I believe you will certainly be able to judge fairly."
"Isn't that right?"
Bai Yuntian nodded heavily.
"Of course!"
"As a father, I don't want Yulong to be secretly harmed, nor do I want Bai Yuzhu to be wrongly accused."
"If I look at the evidence, none of you will have any objections, right?"
His gaze swept across the face of every person present.
Not a single person at the scene voiced an objection.
Only Bai Yuyan grew even more nervous.
When Bai Yuzhu wanted to see it earlier, Chen Yang managed to fool her.
Now that her father wanted to see it,
there was no way to fool him!
Once her father saw the truth, what would he think?
Bai Yuntian nodded in satisfaction.
He looked towards Chen Yang.
"Now, show the photo to me!"
