A second chance with my billionaire husband-Chapter 1522 - 293: A Vast World of Black and White

Ji Yunya’s cold voice slowly drifted in the night, clearly reaching every pair of ears.

Tao Yuzhu was left speechless.

Huang Jia hurriedly said, "It’s Yu Shanshan. If it weren’t for her nonsense, how could we have run to the back garden in the cold wind out of concern for Yuzhu? She’s definitely the one behind this, where is Yu Shanshan? Bring her to me." Huang Jia instructed the Butler who had rushed over after hearing the news.

"She’s here." A cold voice suddenly rang out, piercing the heart like an icicle.

Everyone turned their heads to see a tall and slender figure slowly approaching. The man held a rope in his hand, and as he stepped closer, his handsome and cold face was revealed in the lamplight. The dim night added a few degrees of captivating sternness.

On the other end of the rope, a girl’s hands were tied. She stumbled a few steps, her head hanging low, looking extremely disheveled.

"Yu Shanshan, was this your doing? Otherwise, why were you spreading rumors? If you don’t speak up, I’ll take you to the police station." Tao Yukun stepped forward and asked harshly.

Dongfang Yi’s pupils narrowed slightly as she quietly made a phone call, but no one answered after a long time, and her heart gradually sank. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Yan Song sneered, glancing back at Yu Shanshan. Yu Shanshan shivered, her head hung even lower.

"I... I don’t know anything..."

"You burst into the banquet hall spreading nonsense, causing us to come here. Tell us, did you set up Yuzhu?" Tao Yukun questioned harshly.

"Miss Yu, if you tell the truth, we won’t make things difficult for you. But if you persist in obstinance, the Tao Family will absolutely not tolerate a troublemaker." Huang Jia spoke gently yet firmly.

Yu Shanshan just shook her head continually, "I... It was dark, I didn’t see clearly..."

"Butler, call the police. It seems we have to take legal action." Lady Tao said sternly.

Upon hearing that they wanted to call the police, Yu Shanshan panicked immediately and hurriedly looked at Lau Yixuan. Tao Yuzhu thought of what Ji Yunya had said earlier. She harbored suspicions about Yu Shanshan, but she never expected her good friend to betray her. She was more inclined to believe that Ji Yunya, a stranger she had just met, would frame her.

"Yuzhu... Yuzhu, please help me, I really don’t know anything..."

"Let Shanshan go," Tao Yuzhu said, looking at Yan Song.

However, Yan Song didn’t even look at her, and his complete disregard left Tao Yuzhu embarrassed and glaring at him angrily.

"Will you speak on your own, or do I have to force it out of you?" The man’s deep, icy voice resonated slowly. Yu Shanshan’s face was pale, and her body swayed weakly as terrifying memories flooded her mind.

"Master Yan, look how you’ve scared her; her face is completely white." Dongfang Yi laughed, covering her mouth.

Yan Song completely ignored her and took a dagger from his boot, idly playing with it. The sharp blade spun rapidly at his fingertips, mesmerizing all who watched. His sword eyebrows arched, creating a bewitching, fierce outline.

Dongfang Yi’s face turned pale. Why was there no news from Zong Qing? He was supposed to stall Yan Song, but he vanished without a trace. Yet, Yan Song appeared here with the supposedly missing Yu Shanshan. What on earth was happening?

She instinctively felt something was off but quickly calmed down. Even in the worst-case scenario where the plan failed, she wouldn’t lose anything. She could always scheme again next time, although today’s opportunity was a rare one and hard to come by again.

Yu Shanshan’s face turned deathly pale, and suddenly she screamed, "I’ll say it... I’ll say everything. It was Lau Yixuan..." Yu Shanshan abruptly pointed at Lau Yixuan, whose face drastically changed.

"He knows he’s of low status and that the Tao Family wouldn’t accept him, so to climb up, he targeted Yuzhu. He found me and threatened me to help him. Yuzhu is my best friend. How could I harm her? Of course, I refused him, but unexpectedly, that man... he went insane and assaulted me. I couldn’t take it anymore. Yuzhu, I didn’t do it on purpose. I don’t want to die, I’m begging you to forgive me..." Yu Shanshan "thudded" to her knees, crying with a runny nose and tears.

Yu Shanshan gritted her teeth, "I’m sorry, senior... given the circumstances, I have no choice but to pin this on you!"

Lau Yixuan’s face turned ashen suddenly, looking at Yu Shanshan incredulously. Women couldn’t be trusted—changing faces faster than flipping pages.

Tao Yuzhu stepped back repeatedly, looking at Yu Shanshan in disbelief. She never imagined it was truly Yu Shanshan, her most trusted good friend, who was truly behind it all...
