Chapter 212 You can admit it now.
Yunzhi looked at Yu Baisu with a cold glint in her eyes.
If things had really gone according to their script, Bai Weiwei's ending today would have been her own. It's just a pity that something went wrong, causing them to suffer the consequences.
I don't know if this was Bai Weiwei's or Yu Baisu's idea.
Whoever came up with the idea was extremely malicious. To strip and expose herself in such a setting would not only be a devastating blow to her own reputation, but also to the Yun Group and her parents.
A hint of guilt flashed in Yu Baisu's eyes, but she quickly adjusted her mindset, lowered her head, sobbed, and wiped away her tears. Since things had already come to this, she had to cling to Yunzhi, shift all the blame onto her, and then portray herself as a victim so that her days ahead wouldn't be too difficult.
Although she lost face today, people won't focus on the victim. The real target of the boycott will be the culprit who caused all this. In this situation, ruining someone else's banquet for such an absurd reason will probably make everyone afraid to invite Yunzhi again.
Thinking of this, Yu Baisu felt a surge of joy; this was a stroke of good luck amidst today's misfortune.
“Miss Yun, I know I spoke impulsively, but I rarely offend people. The only person I can think of is you. If I have wronged you, I am willing to apologize to you. I hope you can prove that you did not do it.” Yu Baisu looked up at Yun Zhi with teary eyes.
"Whoever makes the accusation must provide the evidence. Since Miss Yu claims it was me, then produce the proof." Yun Zhi sneered, crossed her arms, and glanced around at the crowd of onlookers. "If everyone were like you in the future, accusing someone without any evidence when something happens, wouldn't that create chaos?"
Those who initially felt some sympathy for Yu Baisu realized, "That makes sense."
The crowd quickly withdrew their sympathetic gazes, and some even egged them on, saying, "Yeah, you say it's Miss Yun, then produce some evidence, whether it's an audio recording or a video recording, anything that can prove it's Miss Yun will do. You can't just say you have a feeling; a feeling can't be used as evidence."
"That's right. Moreover, Yu Baisu suspects Miss Yun and actually demands that Miss Yun provide evidence to prove that she did not drug her. How can Miss Yun prove that she did not drug her? She did not drug her, so she did not drug her. Does she expect time to be reversed?"
Hearing everyone around her talking about Yunzhi, Yu Baisu's face turned pale. She bit her lower lip hard, leaving a pink mark. She looked at Ye Chengyan for help, hoping he would speak up for her.
To her surprise, when she looked up, she saw Ye Chengyan staring straight at Yunzhi.
Yu Baisu was so jealous she was about to go crazy. She sat up slightly and gripped the blanket tightly with both hands.
Seeing that the scene was getting more and more chaotic, Yunzhi did not want to cause trouble for the Ji family, so she took the initiative to back down. "Miss Ji, the Ji family should have surveillance cameras. Please check the surveillance footage to find out who is lying between Miss Yu and me."
"I've already sent someone to investigate, everyone please calm down." Ji Ziyang looked gratefully in Yunzhi's direction and said loudly to the crowd who were still whispering around her, "I'm sorry that today's events have made you all laugh. I hope you won't spread what happened today."
The people who came were all intelligent, and none of them would offend the Ji family for the sake of momentary pleasure. They all agreed one after another, and it was uncertain whether word would spread.
Anyway, Bai Weiwei's affair couldn't be kept secret any longer; when Bai Weiwei went crazy, some people had already shared this gossip with their friends.
Not to mention that Ji Lao's 80th birthday banquet was quite large, with all the prominent figures in the circle attending, which means that 80% of the entire circle knew about it.
Ji Ziyang's expression softened somewhat.
She glanced at the disheveled Yu Baisu and Ye Chengyan, and pinched her brow in exasperation. What a mess this was! Luckily, Grandpa was old and went to bed early, otherwise he would have fainted from anger. Grandpa had been concerned about his reputation his whole life, and today's incident involving Bai Weiwei and Yu Baisu felt like a slap in the face to the old man.
"Everyone, let's wait in the lobby and let Miss Yu and Mr. Ye get dressed," Ji Ziyang said to the crowd. It was impossible to keep Yu Baisu in the public eye with her wrapped in a blanket.
People are just here to watch the show, not to make enemies.
Moreover, the Ye Group has had a good development prospect in recent years, and they would not want to cause trouble at this time. They all agreed one after another and walked downstairs without Ji Ziyang urging them. Soon, most of the dense crowd gathered at the door had dispersed, leaving only a few scattered people.
Yunzhi yawned and turned to leave.
Just then, Yu Baisu suddenly called out to her.
Yunzhi turned around and looked at Yu Baisu's pale face. She clicked her tongue in her heart. If this were Ye Chengyan in the previous life, he would have been heartbroken. It's a pity. She wondered if it was because there was no stepping stone like her to interfere and stimulate their relationship in this life that Ye Chengyan's feelings for Yu Baisu in this life were far less intense than in the previous life.
"Miss Yu, you wouldn't want me to help you get dressed, would you?" Yunzhi tilted her head slightly, looking at Yu Baisu with a half-smile.
Yu Baisu's face was filled with humiliation. She glanced at Ye Chengyan's indifferent expression out of the corner of her eye, took a deep breath, and said, "Miss Yun, is it really not you? Now that everyone has left, if it is you, I can let you off the hook if you admit it now. Otherwise, if Miss Ji really finds out something later, it won't be easy for Miss Yun to get away with it."
Yunzhi narrowed her eyes. Was Yu Baisu threatening her?
Yunzhi's mind raced. Her first thought was, "Is this a honey trap? Does Yu Baisu have a backup plan? Could she have bribed the person who drugged her to frame me?"
She thought about it and then realized it was unlikely; Yu Baisu didn't have that kind of brain.
When everyone saw Yunzhi fall silent, their hearts jumped into their throats. Ji Ziyang, in particular, frowned deeply, looking at Yunzhi with suspicion. Could it be that she had misjudged her and that Yunzhi really did this?
Ye Chengyan also looked at Yunzhi.
The thought that Yunzhi might have done this made Ye Chengyan furious, but what he thought about most was how to help Yunzhi get away with it.
“Miss Yu, it really wasn’t me. You think too highly of me. I just returned to the country, where would I get such powerful stuff?” Yun Zhi shrugged, then looked at Ji Ziyang. “Miss Ji, once you find the person, will you confirm that the mastermind he mentioned is indeed the mastermind?”
Ji Ziyang instantly understood what Yunzhi was worried about.
No wonder Yunzhi had thought about it for so long. She breathed a sigh of relief. "Of course, we would never wrong an innocent person. Please rest assured, Miss Yun."
"I believe you, Miss Ji."
