Chapter 524 The Truth

“Still trying to deny it, are you? My friend recorded the entire process just now on her phone, and there are so many people watching; they can all testify for me.

Now that we have the culprits red-handed, with witnesses and physical evidence, do you think the police will believe you or me?”

Ye Bufan turned to Ouyang Jing and said, “Call the police and let them handle it.”

“No, please don’t!”

These words completely shattered the two people’s psychological defenses. Ma Caifeng knelt before Ye Bufan, raising her hand to slap herself repeatedly across the face: “I’m a bastard, I’m not human, please, please let us off this time.”

Niu Zhanshan followed suit, also kneeling on the ground and slapping himself, “Young man, we were wrong this time, please give us a chance.”

Facing an unimaginable prison sentence, the two no longer had the courage to resist.

Ye Bufan looked at the two with cold eyes. As the saying goes, pitiable people must have something hateful about them. He had no pity for these two.

However, they were clearly insignificant small fries; the main thing was the black hand behind them.

“Alright then, since that’s the case, I’ll give you another chance,” Ye Bufan said. “What exactly happened with this matter? Why did you come to slander my sister? Tell me clearly who sent you.”

“This…”

Niu Zhanshan and Ma Caifeng were clearly still hesitant.

Ye Bufan said coldly, “This is your last chance, otherwise you can tell it to the police. If the truth comes out then, you’ll have to spend the rest of your lives in prison.”

Niu Zhanshan quickly said, “I’ll tell, I’ll tell, I’ll tell everything. Please, please don’t let me go to jail. I have elderly parents and young children at home…”

Ye Bufan said, “That depends on your attitude. As long as you explain everything clearly, I guarantee I won’t pursue your responsibility.”

“It… it… it was Lu Fangwen who told us to do it.”

Since she had already opened her mouth, Ma Caifeng no longer hesitated and recounted the entire incident.

It turned out they were distant relatives of Lu Fangwen. About a month ago, Lu Fangwen found them and asked them to hire Ouyang Jing as a tutor.

The tutoring fees, which were higher than market price, were all paid by him. His purpose was to get close to Ouyang Jing and find an opportunity to act.

After his plan failed today, Lu Fangwen became enraged, called the two, and told them to come and slander Ouyang Jing, ruin her reputation, and make it impossible for her to stay at Jiangbei University.

After Ma Caifeng finished speaking, Niu Zhanshan followed, “Little brother, I’m really sorry. Lu Fangwen said he would give us 20,000 yuan as compensation after we did this, and we were blinded by greed to do such a wicked thing.

This young lady didn’t steal our diamond necklace, and we don’t have any diamond necklace at home. All those things I said were fabricated nonsense; they didn’t happen at all.

What we said is the truth. Please, please give us a chance.”

“Lu Fangwen, that bastard.”

After hearing the two speak, Ouyang Jing gritted her teeth in hatred, never expecting this sanctimonious guy to be so scheming.

“Lu Fangwen, that bastard. He looks like a decent person, but I never thought he would do something like this…”

“Filthy! It’s truly too filthy! If you want to pursue a girl, do it honorably. How could he come up with such despicable methods…”

“A bastard like him should be arrested and thrown in jail for life. He’s disgraced all of us at Jiangbei University…”

After listening to the two’s narration, the onlookers present were all filled with righteous indignation, cursing Lu Fangwen’s ancestors eighteen generations back.

Facing the condemnation of a thousand people, Ma Caifeng pleaded again, “Little brother, we’ve said everything we needed to say. Please, please let us go.”

After speaking, she slapped herself several more times, one after another: “I promise to be a good person from now on and never dare to do such immoral things again.”

“Alright, you two, get lost.”

As soon as Ye Bufan finished speaking, the two acted as if they had received a great pardon and immediately scrambled out.

They had originally thought tonight would be an easy task, where they could easily get 20,000 yuan, but they ended up humiliated and almost thrown into prison.

After they left, the onlookers, seeing that there was no more excitement, also dispersed.

Ye Bufan and the others entered Ouyang Jing’s dorm room and took out all her personal belongings.

There wasn’t too much, actually. Ouyang Jing was usually frugal, and besides her luggage, she only had a few sets of clothes. The items were easily moved into the newly purchased villa by the few of them.

After returning home, Zhang Qian said indignantly, “Mr. Ye, those two were really too hateful. You shouldn’t have let them go. You should have called the police directly and made them rot in jail.”

Ye Bufan said, “Although those two are hateful, they are just pawns greedy for money. The most hateful one is Lu Fangwen.”

He appeared calm, but in his heart, he had already sentenced this guy to death.

His sister was his inverse scale, and Lu Fangwen had repeatedly made advances on Ouyang Jing. If he hadn’t arrived in time today, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Leaving aside the hotel incident, if Ma Caifeng and Niu Zhanshan had really succeeded in ruining Ouyang Jing’s reputation, with his sister’s stubborn personality, she probably wouldn’t have been able to survive at Jiangbei University.

He knew all too well how much his sister, his mother, and his family had sacrificed over the years for her to get into university.

And all of this was almost ruined by Lu Fangwen’s despicable idea, which he absolutely could not accept.

The most crucial thing was that he had solved the problem today, but what about tomorrow when he wasn’t around? That guy might come up with some other underhanded tricks.

Therefore, the best solution was to nip it in the bud.

Zhao Ying said, “That Lu Fangwen is too hateful. He should also be reported to the police and arrested.”

Ye Bufan said, “That kid is very cunning. He didn’t even come to the scene just now; it was entirely Ma Caifeng and Niu Zhanshan’s word against his.

Even if we called the police for something like this, it would be useless. He could completely deny it, and we don’t have any substantive evidence.”

In his heart, calling the police was far from enough to punish Lu Fangwen; he had to handle it personally.

Zhang Qian said indignantly, “That bastard got off too easy.”

Ye Bufan said, “Don’t worry, evil has its retribution. I will handle this matter.”

Ouyang Jing seemed to realize something and said nervously, “Brother, I didn’t suffer any loss. How about we just let it go? Please don’t do anything foolish.”

“Don’t worry, this is a society governed by law. I won’t act recklessly.”

Ye Bufan comforted Ouyang Jing, then turned to the other two and said, “Thank you for your help tonight.”

Zhang Qian said, “Mr. Ye, you’re too kind. We didn’t do anything, just told the truth.”

Zhao Ying said, “Yes, those two bastards slandered Sister Ouyang. We just spoke the truth.”

Ye Bufan said, “Regardless, you two have been a great help to us siblings.”

After chatting for a while longer, Zhang Qian and Zhao Ying got up to leave. Ye Bufan saw them off to their car and then returned to the villa.

At Jiangbei University, after everyone had dispersed, a little guy followed Ye Bufan and the others from a distance.

He didn’t stop until they entered the villa, then he pulled out his phone from his pocket and dialed a series of numbers.
