Chapter 589: Recording Pen
Hearing this, the kidnapper was instantly a little indignant. He said with an aggrieved expression, “Miss Bai, I admit that it was our fault for kidnapping you that day. I’m already prepared to turn myself in. But don’t malign Mr. Chen like this. I came today to testify for him. He didn’t give me any money… Of course, he did, but it’s definitely not a bribe.”
In the end, Bai Ran only heard the words “he did.” She sneered and said, “Why? You’ve already taken the money, but you still want to prove your innocence?”
When Chen Chen heard this, he could not help but raise his eyebrows. Why was this making things worse?
However, when he saw Bai Ran’s determined behavior, he wanted to explain but felt very helpless.
Old Wu immediately waved his hand and explained, “No, I accepted that lady’s money to kidnap you back then. Also, the lady’s money later was all to treat my child. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have fallen for it. Today, Mr. Chen helped me pay for the treatment. There’s no reason for me not to help him anymore. Besides, this isn’t helping. I’m just telling the basic truth.”
Bai Ran looked at his sincere expression as if it was true. She looked at him suspiciously and did not speak.
When Old Wu saw that Bai Ran was finally willing to listen to him, he no longer denied it blindly. He quickly raised three fingers and said, “Miss Bai, if anything I say today is fake, let me be struck by lightning and die without descendants!”
This was a vicious oath. Bai Ran could not help but be a little moved.
At this moment, Old Wu pushed Chen Chen anxiously and said, “Mr. Chen, take out the recording pen. Won’t everything be resolved if you take it out? Otherwise, no matter how much I say, Miss Bai won’t believe me completely!”
However, Chen Chen looked unwilling. His expression was dark as if he was very disappointed.
Bai Ran looked at Chen Chen suspiciously and said, “What recording?”
Old Wu quickly interrupted and said, “Miss Bai, later on, when that lady looked for us to change her mind, she promised to give us a sum of money. After she proved it to you, she asked us to leave. We were afraid that she would deny it, so we secretly recorded it. I hid the recording pen in the suburbs. Just now, I took it out with Mr. Chen. It’s in his hands now.”
Bai Ran’s mind buzzed. There was actually a recording pen?
......
So there was no escape from this?
She turned to look at Chen Chen and said, “Is, is what he said true? Is it Yu Xuan’s voice?”
Chen Chen looked unhappy and said, “Is there any value in asking this?”
When he said this, Bai Ran suddenly realized that she had gone overboard. If all of this was done by Yu Xuan, her suspicion of Chen Chen earlier might have hurt him.
However, she really could not believe it easily anymore. It was really difficult to accept that Yu Xuan was really plotting against Chen Chen in the dark? She had been lying to her all along?
Bai Ran’s mind was a mess. She thought about it and said, “I’m sorry. I should have believed you. Please forgive me. I was just afraid of being lied to. I really didn’t do it on purpose. If you have evidence, show it!”
Looking at Bai Ran’s dejected expression, Chen Chen’s heart ached a little. His expression softened.
He actually understood Bai Ran very well. Not to mention her, he did not dare to trust others easily now. It was really tiring to differentiate between a truth and a lie.
“Alright, I’ll take it out,” Chen Chen said as he took out a recording pen.
He turned on the recorder. Indeed, Old Wu’s voice appeared.
“Miss, are you sure you’ll give us money after this matter is done?” It seemed like Old Wu was talking in the recording.
“That’s right. As long as the matter is done, someone in the suburbs will prepare money and wait for you. Just go and collect it. However, you have to promise me one thing. Leave this place under the instructions of my people. Furthermore, you can’t appear here for a year. A few hundred thousand yuan per person should be enough for you to live freely for a while, right?” A woman’s voice came from the recording.
Bai Ran’s heart instantly skipped a beat. This voice was too familiar. Who else could it be but Yu Xuan?
Her tone was so cold and confident. It was completely different from when she spoke to her usually.
Bai Ran was in a daze when she heard Old Wu and the others continue, “Of course. Miss, may I ask if there’s anything to pay attention to when we talk later?”
