Xu Qingwan's intention was very clear, she almost told Lu Tingyan that it was Ye Bei who pushed her.
Lu Tingyan glanced at her with a cold expression, as if he didn't care at all about what she said.
"Tingyan is here, so this matter..." Father Xu looked at Lu Tingyan, as if since Lu Tingyan is here, it's a good opportunity to talk to him.
Lu Tingyan walked down the stairs step by step, with one hand in his trouser pocket and the other around Ye Bei's waist.
"Aren't you going downstairs to eat? Why are you standing here?" he said nonchalantly.
Ye Bei glanced at him and pursed her lips, "I was thinking, isn't this a problem?"
"Your fault fell on my head. Do you think you should be responsible?" She patted Lu Tingyan's hand on her waist and spoke.
"It's my fault. I apologize to you. I will take care of this matter." Lu Tingyan held his chin and felt a headache. Xu Qingwan was such an annoying woman.
"Brother Tingyan, you...what do you mean? It was obviously Ye Bei who pushed me, so why do you indulge Ye Bei like this?" Xu Qingwan's hands were shaking with anger, and her voice was almost a roar.
She never thought that Lu Tingyan would value Ye Bei so much that he would disregard the relationship between her and the Xu family for Ye Bei.
Father Xu was so angry that he asked, "Yes, Tingyan, are you going to protect Ye Bei like this? She dared to do such a thing to Qingwan so blatantly, so will she dare to do something even more outrageous in front of us in the future? Do you plan to protect her like this forever?"
Lu Tingyan stared at them and said, "Ye Bei would not do such a stupid thing. It's not that I'm defending her, it's that I believe in her."
"Brother Tingyan..." Xu Qingwan's face turned pale, her hands clenched into fists, her whole body numb with jealousy.
She wanted to say something, but before she could open her mouth, she was interrupted by Lu Tingyan.
"You insist that it was her, but you have no evidence. So why not just check the surveillance. I remember there are surveillance cameras installed on the stairs at home. Everything will be clear when you check the surveillance video." Lu Tingyan turned his head to look at the housekeeper standing at the bottom of the stairs.
The butler didn't move, as if waiting for him to speak.
"Okay, since Tingyan said so, let's turn on the surveillance." Father Xu said in a strong voice.
Xu Qingwan, who was held in his arms, looked even worse, and even felt a little guilty.
She grabbed the corner of Xu's father's clothes, gritted her teeth, and her breathing became a little tighter.
He thought that he could take this opportunity to put the blame on Ye Bei, which would not only make Lu Tingyan hate Ye Bei, but also make Lu Tingyan feel pity and guilt for himself.
how do you know...
"Butler, have someone turn on the surveillance." Lu Tingyan swept his deep gaze over Xu Qingwan and glanced at the butler.
The housekeeper nodded, his eyes fell on Xu Qingwan, and he turned to walk out.
Xu Qingwan bit her lip, feeling extremely nervous.
If Lu Tingyan really played the surveillance video, she would be finished. Not only her Xu family would also be disgraced. Not only would she not be able to gain Lu Tingyan's favor, but Lu Tingyan and the entire Lu family would also hate her.
"Don't... Actually, I'm not sure if Ye Bei pushed me. The situation just now was too urgent. It's possible that I misunderstood." Xu Qingwan lowered her head and spoke hesitantly.
Mr. Xu, who had just vowed to seek justice for his daughter, is now confused.
"Qing Wan, didn't you just insist that it was Ye Bei who pushed you? Why are you not sure now?"
Lu Tingyan said in a deep voice: "Let the butler turn on the surveillance video and take a look..."
"I... I don't know. The stairs were too dark. Maybe my legs slipped and I didn't see clearly. I thought it was Ye Bei who pushed me." She spoke vaguely, just wanting to get the matter over with quickly.
"Dad, although I don't know Ye Bei, she said she didn't have it, and even Brother Tingyan and Mingchuan said they didn't have it, so I must have made a mistake."
Father Xu frowned, clearly feeling that Xu Qingwan was deliberately avoiding something.
He stared at Xu Qingwan's hand that was tightly grasping his sleeve, his eyes focused and his face froze instantly.
"Since it's a misunderstanding, you shouldn't have wrongly accused Ye Bei just now. Why don't you apologize to Ye Bei quickly!" Father Xu had been defending his daughter, but now his voice became a little colder when he spoke to Xu Qingwan.
Xu Qingwan trembled her shoulders, raised her eyes to glance at Ye Bei, and saw the woman leaning against the man on the stairs, which was very dazzling.
"Ye Bei, I'm sorry. It's my fault for misunderstanding you." She was helped up by Xu's father and she slightly bent her waist to apologize to Ye Bei.
Her heart was filled with anger. Apologizing to Ye Bei, the woman whom she once despised and looked down upon, was tantamount to trampling on her dignity.
How could someone like Ye Bei deserve her apology!
Xu Qingwan was about to collapse, but there was nothing she could do, she could only bite the bullet and do it.
"Ye Bei, Qingwan is still young and doesn't understand things. Don't bother with her. She doesn't mean to wrongly accuse you." Father Xu's tone became humble.
"Little? I remember Sister Qingwan seemed to be the same age as Ye Bei." Lu Mingchuan beside her asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Father Xu, who was supporting Xu Qingwan, had a face that was almost as black as charcoal.
"Ahem..." The butler on the side coughed lightly, signaling him not to speak.
Lu Mingchuan frowned, and he still hadn't reacted yet, "Am I wrong?"
He has known Xu Qingwan's birthday since he was a child. As for Ye Bei's birthday, it is all available on the Internet. As a fan of Ye Bei, he naturally keeps his idol's birthday in mind.
As soon as he said this, there was silence all around, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was awkward and depressing.
Ye Bei, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke up: "If you can say whatever you want, why do we need justice? I don't think an apology will do anything."
"Miss Xu, if you really know you are wrong, please stay away from me in the future. I hate it most when people plot against me. The next time I see you, it won't be just a misunderstanding."
Everyone knew that if Lu Tingyan hadn't said there was surveillance today, Xu Qingwan would not have admitted so quickly that she had wronged Ye Bei.
Whether Xu Qingwan deliberately fabricated all the false accusations, slandered intentionally or did it unintentionally, she is the party at fault.
Everyone in the Xu family knew they were in the wrong, so they said nothing more. After apologizing to Ye Bei, they took their daughter and left the Lu family.
Lu Tingyan was sitting at the dining table, slowly peeling shrimps for Ye Bei. Ye Bei was sitting next to him, eating seriously.
Lu Mingchuan walked over leisurely, pulled out a chair and sat down, then asked a question that he had been pondering for a long time.
"Brother, when did we install surveillance cameras? Aren't surveillance cameras installed at the door and in the garden?"
"Why did you tell them so much? If there is surveillance, why not just check it directly? It can also quickly clear your sister-in-law's grievances."
This was what puzzled him the most, as his brother was not usually the type to talk a lot.
He always felt that Xu Qingwan was very strange today. No, it should be said that Xu Qingwan became very strange since she returned to China, which made him feel very unfamiliar.
"There is no surveillance." Lu Tingyan pushed the bowl of peeled shrimps in front of Ye Bei.
Lu Mingchuan was stunned for a moment, "No? Then why did you lie..."
As Lu Mingchuan said this, his mind suddenly started and he slammed the table.
"grass!"
"I was saying it. As soon as I mentioned surveillance, Xu Qingwan said she had misunderstood my sister-in-law. It turns out she deliberately wronged my sister-in-law."
Lu Mingchuan thought everything through and glanced at Lu Tingyan, "Brother, I really admire you. You can make Xu Qingwan admit everything with just a trick."
