Liu Qian's eyes held just the right amount of anger and grievance of being wronged, and tears fell down her cheeks.
She looked at Pei Yan and said, "Xiao Yan has installed a lot of surveillance cameras at home recently? They must have been installed at the swimming pool as well. Let's go see the surveillance cameras. The surveillance cameras can prove my innocence."
When she said these words, Liu Qian's eyes were firm and clear, without any guilt.
This made people who originally didn't believe Liu Qian would do such a thing more certain of their thoughts.
This matter must have nothing to do with Liu Qian.
"Everything depends on evidence. Without evidence, no matter how much you talk, there will be no credibility."
Hearing this, Jiang Heshu raised his eyes and looked over.
The speaker was a woman in her forties. Jiang Heshu remembered her as Pei Yan's cousin, Pei Wanxin.
When she and Pei Yan were not divorced, Pei Wanxin greeted her with a smile and was cordial and enthusiastic. After learning that she and Pei Yan were divorced, Pei Wanxin instantly changed her face and looked at her with cold eyebrows and contempt.
Meeting Jiang Heshu's gaze, Pei Wanxin did not avoid her gaze at all and snorted openly.
She continued: "I heard from my friends that some people from small families are not only uneducated, but they have been telling lies since they were young. As long as there is no conclusive evidence, I will not believe a word of it."
As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Qian's expression changed slightly. Jiang Heshu was not the only one present. She also came from a small family that Pei Wan mentioned in her heart.
She was even more miserable than Jiang Heshu. She was first kept by Pei Luying, and then she came to power as his mistress.
However, in the eyes of Pei Wanxin and others, Jiang Heshu is similar to Liu Qian, because Jiang Heshu's second marriage to Pei Yan was.
Jiang Heshu sneered and said directly: "You just heard, but I have seen with my own eyes that some people who claim to be noble and well-educated are used to looking at others with doggy eyes, following others' influence, undermining others and flattering others. It's really shameless."
Pei Wanxin's expression changed, but before she could speak, Jiang Heshu continued: "No doubt, I'm talking about you, but I'm not just talking about you."
When he said this, Jiang Heshu glanced at the faces of several people. These were the same people who, like Pei Wanxin, used to fawn over her, but now look down on her.
Pei Wanxin was just sarcastic, but Jiang Heshu was rebuffing her directly without any mercy.
The person being looked at by Jiang Heshu felt a little embarrassed and couldn't help but say, "Who are you talking about?"
Jiang Heshu's tone was cold, "Anyone with a normal IQ will know who I'm talking about. You don't know, is it because you have a problem with your IQ?"
He was said to have an IQ problem in public, and his face turned blue and white. From the corner of his eye, he noticed someone laughing next to him, which made him even more angry.
He couldn't help but scolded sternly: "In the past, we only tolerated you for Xiao Yan's sake. Otherwise, an uneducated and unqualified poor guy like you wouldn't have the qualifications to talk to us."
"You don't know what's wrong. You mock and insult us like this. It's really shameless..."
He used harsh words, but before he finished speaking, Jiang Heshu picked up the teacup on the table and threw it at him.
Jiang Heshu showed no mercy to such shameless people looking for trouble.
Besides, Pei Yan had promised her more than once that as long as he was here, she wouldn't have to endure anyone.
If someone commits a crime, teach him a lesson.
Jiang Heshu's sudden move exceeded everyone's expectations, and the teacup hit the man's shoulder accurately.
Although the ceramic water cup is small, it has some weight. If it hits someone's body, it will hurt.
The man was in pain, but more importantly, he was angry. He stood up and walked towards Jiang Heshu, as if he was going to take action.
At this moment, Pei Yan also stood up and looked at the man.
Facing Pei Yan's calm gaze and his protective posture, the man stopped in his tracks and stopped where he was, not daring to make any further moves.
Some people were accustomed to bullying, and dared to quarrel or even attack Jiang Heshu, who was powerless and had lost his identity as Mrs. Pei, but against Pei Yan, he did not dare to move a finger.
For a while, the scene was somewhat stalemate.
At this moment, Grandma Pei spoke.
"What's the fuss about? What's the fuss about?"
"This is all my family's private matter and has nothing to do with you. You all should go back to your rooms and rest."
Some people settled in other places and could not go back on the day they came back for the family dinner, so they would stay overnight. The Pei family would prepare rooms for them every time.
Seeing Grandma Pei chasing people away, Pei Wanxin couldn't help but said: "Private matters are private matters, but before there is evidence, you cannot arbitrarily accuse innocent people."
When talking about 'innocent people', Pei Wanxin looked at Liu Qian specifically, and the meaning was obvious.
Grandma Pei glanced at her coldly, and her voice became a little deeper, "I haven't reached the time when my eyesight is dim and I need you to teach me how to do things."
Pei Wanxin's face stiffened, and her aura instantly weakened, "Aunt Second Hall, that's not what I meant."
Grandma Pei said nonchalantly: "Am I too old and feeble to understand what you mean?"
Some words are getting darker and darker, just like now.
But Pei Wanxin knew that no matter what she said, Grandma Pei would interpret it wrongly.
Because Grandma Pei was venting her anger on Jiang Heshu.
She glanced at Jiang Heshu, who was sitting between Pei Yan and Grandma Pei, and gritted her teeth.
I thought Jiang Heshu and Pei Yan were divorced and without a backer, they could be bullied by them, but who knew...
Pei Wanxin regretted it very much. She should not have interfered without seeing the situation clearly.
Now not only did he not get any benefits, he also offended Grandma Pei and Pei Yan.
Several other people who, like Pei Wanxin, were accustomed to putting others down and flattering others, could not help but feel happy when they saw this. Fortunately, they did not rush to the front like Pei Wanxin.
One of Pei Yan's aunts stood up and said, "Let's go back and rest first, and you should deal with this matter early. He Shu just gave birth and needs to take a good rest."
She started, and as soon as she finished speaking, someone echoed: "Yes! You must take good care of yourself. You and Xiaoyan are still young, and you will have children in the future."
Whether they were sincerely concerned or hypocritical, Jiang Heshu didn't care. She nodded slightly and said nothing.
After all, her current persona is: a mother who has lost her child.
After the family dinner in the past, the only people who stayed at the Pei family were some people who had settled in other places and could not go home that day. Today, these things happened...
Everyone looked at each other, and except for a few who really had something to do and couldn't stay, the rest of them stayed.
They all want to know the outcome of this matter.
After they left, there were only a few of them left in the huge living room, which seemed very empty.
Liu Qian was still crying silently, first of all how much injustice she had endured.
Pei Yan poured a cup of hot water for Jiang Heshu and grandma each, and then said: "The surveillance camera I installed next to the swimming pool was damaged for no reason in the afternoon. Those two surveillance cameras did not capture the scene at that time."
Liu Qian looked stunned, "Why did it suddenly break?"
Her expression was very natural and she looked completely unaware.
Jiang Heshu watched her performance coldly. If she hadn't seen Liu Qian's eyes with her own eyes when she fell into the water, she would have been deceived by Liu Qian's superb acting skills.
Pei Yue said: "How could the surveillance suddenly break down? It must have been deliberately sabotaged."
Now Pei Yue was very suspicious that the people she heard insulting Jiang Heshu were deliberately designed by someone.
The purpose is to make her angry, quarrel or fight with others, and then use this as an inducement to call Jiang Heshu over.
Thinking about it, Pei Yue told her guess, and also said that as soon as Jiang Heshu left the room, a drunk man smashed the room.
Pei Yan had already found out about this matter and caught the drunkard, but Grandma Pei didn't know about it.
When she heard that so many thrilling things had happened tonight, her face turned ugly, and her eyes when she looked at Jiang Heshu were full of regret and heartache.
After hearing this, Liu Qian also showed a surprised expression, "If Pei Yue didn't tell me, I wouldn't have known that this happened. It's such a coincidence."
What a coincidence?
Pei Yan raised his eyes and looked at Liu Qian, "I forgot to mention that two of the surveillance cameras installed next to the swimming pool were broken, but not all of them were broken."
