Chapter 155 - Brutal Truth (1/2)

As of now, the video had been paused. Someone had to press the b.u.t.ton for the video to play.

However, the paused footage was an image of Jian Yiling and Jian Yunnao. The two of them appeared to be in the middle of an argument.

This was the missing surveillance video from Heyunshan Resort.

The Jian family couldn’t believe their eyes. The missing footage that they’d been desperately searching for had appeared right in front of them.

The person who was in charge of the resort’s surveillance had also appeared with the missing footage.

The truth was right in front of them. All they needed to do was press the play b.u.t.ton. Then, the truth would be unveiled.

Jian Shuxing’s fingers trembled as he reached out to press the b.u.t.ton.

Wen Nuan and Jian Yuncheng stood behind him. Their eyes were all fixated on the small screen…

Scenes flashed by on the computer screen…

The scenes ranged from the argument to the fall to the girl who cried on the ground out of fear and numbness due to the fact that she had failed to save her brother.

She had been terrified.

She could only look at her brother’s figure that had fallen over a pile of gla.s.s shards. She didn’t know what to do. She was utterly terrified and helpless.

She was at fault. She should have never dragged her brother into an argument in such a dangerous location.

In fact, she probably shouldn’t have had that argument in the first place.

However, she never ever had wanted to push her own brother down the stairs.

Even in the moment of danger, her instinctive reaction was to pull her brother back up. She wanted to protect him.

When Wen Nuan saw the image play out in front of her, she covered her mouth and started crying.

She became unsteady on her feet. Jian Yuncheng had to hold her up.

“Yiling, Yiling… My poor daughter…” Wen Nuan cried out.

Jian Shuxing stood there in a daze. His heart ached. It felt as though it was being tortured.

It was the sort of pain that reached his bones. The kind of pain that made it difficult to breathe.

Their daughter… She hadn’t done anything to hurt her family.

She had been wrongly accused.

Other than her initial attempt to justify herself, she hadn’t said anything.
