Chapter 10
After returning to the hotel, I curled up in the corner of my room, trembling uncontrollably.
The call from Shen Hao felt like a sharp knife, piercing deep into my heart.
Photos, videos...
The flood of insults overwhelmed me, trapping me in a nightmare from which I could not escape, struggling to breathe.
I tried hard to recall every detail of that night, but I couldn't remember who that man was.
My thoughts were a tangled mess, with no clear direction.
I hadn’t done anything wrong; why was I being slandered like this?
Was I really going to be destroyed by Shen Hao?
I asked myself repeatedly but found no answers.
Fear and despair surged over me like a tidal wave, almost swallowing me whole.
No, I wouldn’t give in!
I couldn’t just give up like this!
I still have dreams, and I still have a future!
I took a deep breath, trying hard to calm myself down.
I cannot let my emotions control me; I need to find a way to solve the problem.
I began to recall every word, every glance, and every action that Shen Hao had ever shown me.
He must have left some clues; I just hadn't discovered them yet.
I picked up my phone and repeatedly scrolled through the photos and videos.
My gaze lingered on each frame, trying to find a hint of something amiss.
Suddenly, I noticed a detail.
The man in the photo was wearing a watch that looked very familiar.
I felt like I had seen it somewhere before, but I just couldn't remember where.
My heart started to race as a sense of foreboding washed over me.
I searched my memory desperately, my mind racing to connect that watch with someone I knew.
Finally, it came back to me.
That watch is often worn by Su Man's assistant!
Could it be...
Could it be that Su Man and Shen Hao have teamed up to frame me?
This thought sent a chill down my spine, as if I were trapped in an ice cellar.
If that were the case, what could their purpose be?
I was baffled; their actions made no sense to me at all.
A wave of dizziness washed over me, and my body felt as if it had lost all strength.
Just then, my phone rang.
The jarring ringtone shattered the silence of the room and pulled me back from my chaotic thoughts.
It was Gu Yan.
"Qin Wan, are you okay?" His voice was filled with concern, like a warm current that instantly melted the frost in my heart.
Hearing his voice, I could no longer hold back my tears.
Injustice, fear, helplessness...
All my emotions turned into tears, pouring out uncontrollably.
"Gu Yan, I... I’ve been framed..." I choked out, barely able to control my voice.
"I know," he said firmly, "I believe you."
His words were like a powerful force, supporting my trembling body.
In this dark moment, his trust shone like a beacon, illuminating the path ahead of me.
"I will uncover the truth," he declared, his voice filled with strength, giving me boundless hope.
I clutched my phone tightly, a flicker of hope igniting within me.
Gu Yan, thank you.
I knew I was not fighting this battle alone; there was someone willing to believe in me and help me.
In the following days, Gu Yan tirelessly assisted me in investigating the matter.
He utilized all his connections and resources, leaving no stone unturned.
I understood that he had sacrificed a lot for me.
Meanwhile, I was also actively searching for evidence that could work in my favor.
I couldn't place all my hopes on Gu Yan; I had to do everything I could to fight for a glimmer of hope for myself.
I contacted the hotel staff from that night, asking if they had seen the man.
I described his features over and over again, hoping to find some clues from their memories.
I also reached out to my friends and colleagues, hoping they could provide testimony.
I knew this could be a long and arduous process, but I refused to give up.
Even though it was challenging, I persevered.
Whenever I felt exhausted and desperate, I would think of Gu Yan's trust in me, my dreams, and my future.
I understood that as long as I kept going, I would surely uncover the truth.
I repeatedly reminded myself that I couldn't give up; I had to persist.
Finally, Gu Yan found a crucial breakthrough.
