Li Jiawei felt a chill rushing to her heart, and her hands began to tremble uncontrollably. She tried to stay calm, but the panic and fear in her heart surged like a tide. She looked up at Xiao Yi and wanted to say something, but found that her throat seemed to be blocked and she couldn't make any sound. Only the tears in her eyes kept falling like beads that had broken off the string.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi wiped the tears from Li Jiawei's face with his fingertips, hugged her tightly again, and repeated over and over again: "Jiawei, believe me! None of this is true."

Li Jiawei felt the warmth in Xiao Yi's embrace, and the cold despair in her heart gradually warmed up. However, she couldn't help but think of the scene where Zhang Yi and Huang Keren were caught naked in bed by her, and it reappeared like a nightmare, and she felt nauseous. She pushed Xiao Yi away, rushed into the bathroom, squatted in front of the toilet and vomited violently.

Xiao Yi felt distressed and wanted to go forward to comfort her, but was stopped by Li Jiawei's sharp cry: "Don't come over!"

Li Jiawei raised her head, looked at Xiao Yi with tearful eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "When did it happen?"

Xiao Yi's eyes were full of pleading and sincerity. He explained, "It was during the filming in the west, Jiawei, believe me, nothing really happened between us. It was almost the end of the filming that day, and there was a crew party, and I drank a little too much. When we were returning to the hotel, Chunlian forgot his phone in the car, and he went back to get it. Because the room card was with him, I waited for him in the hotel corridor. At this time, Yu Manqi came over and insisted on hugging me, so I pushed her away, and she took the opportunity to pull me to the ground. Nothing really happened between us, and the photo of us lying on the ground 'kissing' was a borrowed effect."

Li Jiawei listened to Xiao Yi's explanation, but her doubts did not dissipate: "How do I know that what you said is true? You are not lying to me? Xiao Yi, I hate betrayal!"

Xiao Yi looked at Li Jiawei crying with heartache and said firmly: "Jiawei, I only love you, and you are the only woman in my life. Believe me!"

Li Jiawei wiped away her tears and said firmly: "I just want evidence!"

Xiao Yi quickly said: "Don't worry, I've asked Xue Tao to contact the hotel to check the surveillance."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yi's phone rang. It was Xue Tao who called. Xue Tao said on the other end of the phone: "Xiao Yi, the hotel's surveillance during that period has been bought by someone else."

Although Xiao Yi had expected this, he still frowned when he heard the news. Since the other party dared to release the photos and videos, they had obviously made thorough preparations. He asked, "Does the hotel have backup?"

Xue Tao replied helplessly: "I asked the hotel manager and they said there was no backup."

Xiao Yi asked again: "Have you contacted the person who first broke the news? Who gave him these things?"

Xue Tao shook his head again: "That person refused to say. Xiao Yi, the other party is obviously well prepared. This matter is a bit tricky." Xue Tao actually wanted to suggest that Xiao Yi issue a single statement, but now he and Li Jiawei have already proposed, and issuing a single statement is undoubtedly deceiving fans. Moreover, he knew that even if he made such a suggestion, Xiao Yi would not agree.

Li Jiawei's emotions gradually stabilized. She stared at Xiao Yi and confirmed again: "Xiao Yi, tell me, you didn't cheat, right?"

Xiao Yi put down his phone, his eyes firm: "I really didn't, Jiawei, you have to believe me."

Li Jiawei stood up from the ground, walked to the sink, held onto it, picked up Xiao Yi's phone, and after thinking for a moment, said to Xue Tao on the other end of the phone: "Mr. Xue, the hotel's surveillance cannot have only one backup. It has been less than a month since that day, and according to the law, the hotel's surveillance must be stored for at least thirty days. Xiao Yi and his friends were staying in a five-star hotel at the time. The hotel management could not have been unaware of this law, nor would they have violated it."

Although Xue Tao understood this rule, when faced with the hotel manager's insistence that there was no surveillance, he said, "Ms. Li, the hotel manager insisted that there was no surveillance during that period, and we can't get the surveillance."

Li Jiawei turned to look at Xiao Yi and asked, "Do you and Yu Manqi live on the same floor?"

Xiao Yi shook his head: "We are not on the same floor. She is on the fourteenth floor and I am on the sixteenth floor."

Upon hearing this, Li Jiawei said to Xue Tao, "Mr. Xue, could you please give me a copy of the surveillance footage from the 14th floor that day?"

Although Xue Tao didn't understand Li Jiawei's intention, she still responded, "Okay, I'll have someone copy it now."

After hanging up the phone, Li Jiawei didn't look at Xiao Yi again, but took out her mobile phone and called her father.

Li Ronghua already knew about the hot searches about Xiao Yi on the Internet. He wanted to call to inquire, but he picked up the phone several times and put it down again. He wanted to know how Li Jiawei would deal with this matter. After all, if Li Jiawei decided to be with Xiao Yi, this would not be the first time, nor the last time. She needed to learn to face and solve it herself.

However, when Li Jiawei called, Li Ronghua still smiled. Not bad, she knew to seek support from her father when she was wronged.

Li Ronghua answered the phone and called gently, "Weiwei."

When Li Jiawei heard her father's voice, the grievance in her heart surged up again, and the tears that had just stopped flowed down again. Xiao Yi wanted to hug her distressedly, but she gently pushed him away.

She choked and cried, "Dad!" Her voice was full of grievance and dependence.

Li Ronghua felt extremely distressed when he heard Li Jiawei's sobbing, and quickly comforted her: "Weiwei, don't cry, Daddy will take care of that brat Xiao Yi for you."

Li Jiawei listened to Li Ronghua's words. Although she still felt wronged, she felt warm. She said firmly: "Dad, I want to find out what happened. If he really betrayed me, I won't miss him. But if he is wronged, he is mine, and I will not allow others to slander him."

When Li Ronghua heard Li Jiawei say this, he knew that she had a knot in her heart because of her ex-husband's infidelity. She was particularly sensitive to the betrayal of her lover. If he didn't find out the truth of the matter, he was worried that Li Jiawei would get stuck in a dead end. So he asked, "Okay, call Dad, what do you want me to do?"

Li Jiawei mentioned the name of the hotel where Xiao Yi was staying, and then said, "Dad, do you know the owner of this hotel? I want to see the surveillance footage on the 16th floor of the hotel that day. The hotel manager said that the surveillance footage was missing that day, but I don't believe they didn't have a backup."

Upon hearing this, Li Ronghua immediately made the decision and said, "Okay, Dad will definitely take care of this for you."

After Li Jiawei finished talking to Li Ronghua, she turned and stared at Xiao Yi: "What are you going to do now?"
