Chapter 250
Yu Hanjiang decided to expand the scope of the search and compiled the information on Lin Yiyan’s cla.s.smates in high school and university .
She had decided to go to the movie academy in her second year of high school . According to her parents, she rarely saw her high school cla.s.smates after being admitted to the movie academy . She still had contact with her good friends but these two people currently weren’t in Binzhou City . They only met with Lin Yiyan during the Spring Festival every year .
The two high school cla.s.smates didn’t have any motive for killing and they weren’t in Binzhou, so they obviously weren’t related to this case .
The university students were more complex .
Lin Yiyan was a student of the acting department of the Movie Academy . Several of her cla.s.smates had become famous in the entertainment industry and became popular traffic stars . Everyone was in a group to maintain warmth . At least on the surface, the relations.h.i.+p between cla.s.smates was very harmonious and they often organized gatherings .
These popular students all publicly wished Lin Yiyan a happy birthday on Weibo on October 29th . The names of these people were recorded in Yu Hanjiang’s book, including Qiao Xuening .
Unlike Lin Yiyan, who went smoothly all the way since her debut, Qiao Xuening’s past few years in the entertainment industry were full of ups and downs . She had been through thorns and bloodshed to reach her stable position today .
At the beginning, she acted in various supporting roles in online dramas such as the maidservant, dancer, villain… She acted as these supporting roles for three years . No one knew the name ‘Qiao Xuening’ and the bitterness could be imagined .
Her career could turn around thanks to Lin Yiyan .
This was eight years ago . At the time, Lin Yiyan was already well-known . She relied on the help of her agent Qi Ming to act in four different types of TV series in succession . The ratings and reviews were good and she had more than one million Weibo fans .
Starlight Entertainment invested in a large-scale production of an ancient costume palace fighting drama . Lin Yiyan took the role of the heroine and auditions for the other concubines were needed . She introduced this resource to her university cla.s.smate Qiao Xuening and asked Qiao Xuening to play the fourth female lead in the drama .
The fourth female lead didn’t have many scenes and the ending was quite sad . Fortunately, the character was distinctive . In addition, Qiao Xuening had played supporting roles for several years and her acting skills had improved . She interpreted this tragic character in a magical way, especially the scene where she committed suicide at the end . This caused many audience members to cry and created several hot searches .
It was precisely due to this drama that Qiao Xuening became known to the audience and directors in the circle . The directors discovered that this young girl actually had good acting skills?
As a result, Qiao Xuening went from being an invisible actor that no one knew about to being a representative of the ‘new generation of acting school’ in the eyes of the directors . There were naturally more appointments and the good scripts continued to arrive . Directors selected her to play the heroine and her popularity rose steadily .
Unfortunately, her luck was really bad .
Two years pa.s.sed when a scandal about her suddenly broke out on the Internet . Qiao Xuening once had a relations.h.i.+p after graduating from high school . Her partner was a cool-looking Internet cafe boy and she chased this boy . They played games in the Internet cafe all night and took many intimate photos and videos, including many indecent photos of Qiao Xuening without clothes .
It was her boyfriend who released the videos and photos . It was said that Qiao Xuening dumped him less than a year after going to university . Her ex-boyfriend released these things after Qiao Xuening got popular for revenge .
Seeing her naked photos circulating everywhere on the Internet, Qiao Xuening’s emotions collapsed . At the press conference, she said she was young and met someone unsavory . She liked a sc.u.mbag and took many indecent photos with the sc.u.mbag . This was the thing she regretted most in her life . She not only publicly condemned the sc.u.mbag for exposing private photos and videos but she took the sc.u.mbag to court and publicly apologized to her fans .
The indecent photos that circulated everywhere on the Internet had a great influence on Qiao Xuening’s reputation . However, her handling of the crisis was good and the fans were sympathetic to her plight…
After a full two years of silence, Qiao Xuening regained the courage to return .
She filmed several TV series and her acting got better and better . In particular, her crying scenes almost became the benchmark of the entertainment circle . She could easily drive the emotions of the audience . After winning several awards, Qiao Xuening was gradually whitewashed .
In fact, the incident back then couldn’t be called her fault . It was everyone’s freedom to shoot intimate videos in private . The man who exposed the videos was the culprit . After she was whitewashed, she became more low-key and treated the staff and others around her very politely . She was notoriously dedicated when filming . It was said that she would repeatedly memorize the script before filming and she rarely forgot her lines .

Xiao Lou had compiled the information on Starlight Entertainment’s celebrities and also compiled Qiao Xuening’s information . It was because he knew that Qiao Xuening was the heroine of Twin Flowers and the information might be useful .
Xiao Lou had the foresight to organize the information so Yu Hanjiang’s knowledge of Qiao Xuening was very clear . Yu Hanjiang heard Cheng Yu mention Qiao Xuening and quickly recalled these materials . He and Xiao Lou exchanged looks and decided to question Qiao Xuening in person .
It was 8 o’clock in the evening . Twin Flowers might be a dog-blood idol drama but it had two popular stars, Qiao Xuening and Cheng Yu . The investors gave a lot of money and the director was also generous . The entire floor of the five-star hotel was directly booked and several famous actors lived there during filming .
Qiao Xuening’s room was 7311 . Yu Hanjiang took Xiao Lou and knocked on Qiao Xuening’s door . A young girl opened the door . She should be an a.s.sistant . She was surprised when she saw the two people and wondered, “Did you knock on the wrong door?”
Yu Hanjiang showed his police officer’s card . “Police . ”
The a.s.sistant immediately turned back to the room to find the agent . Qiao Xuening’s agent was a middle-aged woman who was around 40 years old . She looked mature and stable at first glance . She politely nodded to Yu Hanjiang and said, “h.e.l.lo, officer . I don’t know what case you are investigating but are you sure you don’t have the wrong person?”
Yu Hanjiang asked, “Is Miss Qiao Xuening in the room?”
The agent was stunned . “This…”
“We came to her to investigate some things . I hope she can cooperate . ”
The agent was forced to invite the two people inside . It would be big trouble if she hindered the police from investigating a case .
The two of them entered the room and happened to see Qiao Xuening barefoot and in loose clothing, making the horse posture on the carpet . Qu Wanyue was actually there as well . After seeing Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou, Qu Wanyue pretended not to know them . She took up, walked to the agent’s side and asked, “Sister Xu, what’s going on?”
Sister Xu frowned . “Teacher Qu, I have to trouble you today to go back first . There are some things to deal with . I will find you tomorrow . ”
Qu Wanyue took a look at Xiao Lou, nodded and left .
The agent also sent the a.s.sistant away and only four people were left in the room . Qiao Xuening stood up in a questioning manner, put on more clothes and slippers and came to Yu Hanjiang . She asked politely, “These two are?”
Yu Hanjiang took out his police officer ID . “h.e.l.lo Miss Qiao . I am Yu Hanjiang, the captain of the Binzhou Criminal Police team . I am here to investigate a criminal case . Do you know Lin Yiyan? How is your relations.h.i.+p with her?”
Qiao Xuening was slightly startled . “Xiao Yan? Of course I know her . We were cla.s.smates and shared a dormitory for four years in university . We have a good relations.h.i.+p . The entertainment industry is complicated and it is much easier when there are a few cla.s.smates who can look after each other . ”
She looked at the agent . “Sister Xu, pour the two police officers a gla.s.s of water . ”
Sister Xu politely poured three gla.s.ses of water and handed them to Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou . Yu Hanjiang put the cla.s.s on the table without intending to drink . Qiao Xuening took a few sips . It was obvious that she was sweaty and thirsty from dancing .
Qiao Xuening stretched out a hand to the balcony and said, “We can sit down and talk here . ”
