Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Xu Xiyan kicked Chu Tian, rolling him onto his back. She tore the tape off his mouth and then stepped on his throat with a foot. “Speak! Tell everyone what you know! If you dare to lie to us, I’ll castrate you,” she said sternly.

“I’ll talk! I’ll talk! Please have mercy, madam...”

Chu Tian sweated in fear. Right now in his current situation, he was not far from being castrated if he did not comply with her.

Flustered, he confessed everything he had seen with his own eyes in the past. “It was Xiao Yuxin. She faked her molestation. In order to trick Ma Haodong and lure him over to her, she had deliberately created a misunderstanding between him and Ah Che. Ma Haodong beat up Ah Che because of it. After he left, Xiao Yuxin got someone else to beat Ah Che to death and blamed it on Ma Haodong. I only know this much, only this much...”

The “Xiao Yuxin” Chu Tian mentioned was Xiao Yuqian’s half-sister, who had later changed her name to “Ning Xin” as her stage name.

Because Chu Tian had witnessed the incident himself in the past, he had power over Ning Xin. In these few years, whenever he had no money to spend, he would ask Ning Xin for money.

Not only had he extorted a lot of money from Ning Xin, but he had also engaged and maintained an illicit relationship with Ning Xin. Ning Xin had no choice but to obey him if she wanted him to keep the secret.

The truth of the matter had finally come to light.

That time, Ma Haodong did not know that the man he was beating up was Xiao Yuche, but he did not beat him to death.

This was all Ning Xin’s doing and she had caused Xiao Yuqian to misunderstand him. Xiao Yuqian had always thought that he was the one who had killed Xiao Yuche and thus she hated him. For so many years, she had always been unwilling to forgive him.

It had been really tiring being a scapegoat for someone else.

Ma Haodong turned to look at Xiao Yuqian, a bitter smile on his face. “Qianqian, will you now believe that I’m innocent?”

Xiao Yuqian had been fighting hard to control her emotions, but at this moment, her tears fell like a river bursting out from a dam. She could no longer restrain herself and tears streamed down her face nonstop.

She was distressed and saddened by her brother’s tragic death.

She was angered and disgusted by Ning Xin’s sinful deeds.

She had misunderstood the man who once loved her the most because of a vile person’s conspiracy. She could not describe the pain her heart was feeling now.

Six years. She had hated Ma Haodong for six years. She had spent all that time of her life holding a grudge against him.

Now when she thought about it, she could only sigh in regret. Oh, the time they had missed out was really too much.

After the misunderstanding was clarified, Xu Xiyan took Chu Tian away. She left Ma Haodong and Xiao Yuqian alone to give them time for themselves and let them decide how to resolve the matter between them.

She did not let Chu Tian go but sent him to the police station instead. She reported him for molesting a woman and other crimes like blackmail.

After a thorough investigation, the police followed clues as they appeared in their investigation and found out that Chu Tian was using his identity as a pub singer to swindle women, and at the same time, he had maintained illicit relationships with as many as 17 women.

The A-list actress Ning Xin and several wealthy women with social status were among the women involved. The amount of money defrauded from them had accumulated over 100 million yuan.

Through the media, the police disclosed the criminal behavior of Chu Tian as a reminder to the general public, especially women, that they should be cautious when making friends.

After the matter had concluded, Xu Xiyan went to the hospital to visit Ni Xuelin. Ni Xuelin told her that Xue Yating had employed a maternity matron to take care of her after she was discharged from the hospital, and she shouldn’t worry about her for the time being.

As for Huayin’s A-list actress, Ning Xin: she had completely disappeared from public view. Her days of glory were gone and her situation looked very bleak.

Because Chu Tian’s case had been exposed, the police had marked her as the suspect of the murder six years ago.
