Jing Pengfei’s tone was very sincere as he admitted his fault, a stark contrast to the arrogant speech he had made in the livestream that afternoon.
As soon as he finished speaking, as if fearing that Jiang Ning would disagree, he quickly added, "My comments this afternoon were purely to see if you really had the ability to find me. Actually, I didn’t hire anyone to smear your reputation, nor have I ever done anything to harm you."
Jing Pengfei was almost ready to swear with his hand raised, "I’m telling the truth, I’m not lying to you."
Some of the audience in the livestream started believing him:
[If that’s really the case, then there really is no need to call the police...]
[If he didn’t hire anyone to smear Jiang Ning, then those few comments he made in the livestream were just senseless blabbering, even the police couldn’t do anything about him.]
However, some astute individuals quickly realized:
[Wait a minute, if he didn’t hire anyone to smear Jiang Ning, then how did she know his identity? How did he show up on the criminal list Jiang Ning mentioned?]
"You know very well what you have done," Jiang Ning’s eyes were somewhat icy, "You may not have slandered me, but can you loudly claim you haven’t hired anyone to smear others?"
At this, Jing Pengfei’s expression abruptly changed!
He looked at Jiang Ning in shock and fear...
"I will send your criminal evidence to the Capital City police via email. Whatever you have to say, save it for them," Jiang Ning stated coldly.
After her words fell, the police, having received a call, hurriedly arrived.
It was after their arrival that the System informed Jiang Ning in her mind that the task was complete and rewards were distributed to both Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou.
Hearing the System’s voice, Jiang Ning remained composed, voluntarily reported her name to the police, and briefly recorded her statement.
While she was recording it, Qi Xingzhou, who had been by her side, intentionally moved a few meters away so as not to let the livestream audience hear the conversation between Jiang Ning and the police.
His move made the livestream audience laugh and criticize Qi Xingzhou for doing it on purpose, though they couldn’t do anything about it.
After finishing her statement, Jiang Ning quickly walked over to Qi Xingzhou.
Jiang Ning’s demeanor was relaxed, even slightly impatient, "Let’s go, we can go home now."
Behind them, the police had already handcuffed the pale-faced Jing Pengfei.
Just then, a voice came from above in the hall, announcing that the flight from Capital City to Chou Country was checking in. Jing Pengfei, as if awoken from a dream, screamed in despair and began to struggle wildly, "Let go of me! Let me go! I need to leave the country! Just a little bit more! I was about to leave the country!"
The two officers frowned and restrained him tightly in place.
Jing Pengfei’s struggle was in vain, and he looked at Jiang Ning’s back with a fierce, resentful expression.
He wouldn’t regret his past actions—he only hated that if it weren’t for Jiang Ning, he would have been out of the country by now!
He despised Jiang Ning!
If he ever got the chance, he swore he would never let Jiang Ning go!
Jiang Ning felt the hateful glare behind her, but she didn’t care at all.
She looked at her phone, taking a rare moment to answer questions from the audience in the livestream:
"Why did I come back by plane? Because I drove all afternoon, and driving back again would mean severely fatigued driving. As a good citizen, I cannot break the law."
"What did Jing Pengfei do wrong?" Jiang Ning pondered for two seconds, "Wait for the police announcement."
[It’s too much! Jiang Jiang, you weren’t before!]
[Ah, now they don’t even tell us what the criminal did wrong? Don’t we even have this little right to know?]
[It’s still the inevitable fate of turning from a darling into Mrs. Niu~ I pity myself.]
[Everyone stop being dramatic! Go check the Anyang Police official Weibo! They already made an announcement about this afternoon’s Li Family Village incident!]
[Thank you, class president. I’m going right now!!!!]
Jiang Ning also saw the comment, and as her tasks for the day were completed, she took the opportunity to say goodbye to her online friends, then quickly signed off amidst the audience’s calls for her to stay longer.
Jiang Ning’s car was still being transported back and wouldn’t arrive in Beijing until tomorrow.
The two walked out of the airport hall, ready to take a taxi home, when a low-key black Cayenne slowly stopped in front of them.
The car window rolled down, revealing a distinct handsome face.
Qi Chen looked at them and said, "Get in."
