Chapter 3167 - 3159: The Final Task
Chapter 3167: Chapter 3159: The Final Task
Evidence?
Hearing Ma Huaiyang’s words, Xu Wen was momentarily stunned.
Although she knew Wang Guodong was having an affair, she had no evidence.
How could he have evidence on hand?
And during this time, this lawyer named Ma Huaiyang hadn’t contacted her—where did he get the evidence?
Across the table, Wang Guodong and Li Changjiang exchanged glances, a smile tugging at their lips.
To them, the evidence mentioned was surely a bluff; it couldn’t possibly harm them.
Unhurriedly, Ma Huaiyang took out his laptop and placed it conspicuously.
"Here’s some information I’ve collected, take a look."
Quickly, Ma Huaiyang displayed several photos showing Wang Guodong with his hand around a woman’s waist, strolling through a mall.
Seeing these photos, both Wang Guodong and Li Changjiang were stunned.
Xu Wen was also taken aback, not having expected Ma Huaiyang to have such evidence.
"Where did you get these photos!" Wang Guodong exclaimed.
"Where they came from isn’t important; what’s important is that the person in them is you," Ma Huaiyang responded.
"And there’s no need to be so worked up; there’s more to come."
Ma Huaiyang operated the laptop and found a video.
The footage showed a window with two people inside, clapping for love in front of the window, playing very provocatively.
Though the image wasn’t very clear, it was distinguishable as Wang Guodong himself.
Seeing the video, Wang Guodong became even more agitated, pounding the table and shouting hysterically:
"The person in the video isn’t me; he’s using fake evidence!"
"Fake evidence?"
Ma Huaiyang smiled, "Since you claim this is fake evidence, let me show you some more."
After speaking, Ma Huaiyang played an audio recording.
"My name is Zhang Xue, and I’m Wang Guodong’s girlfriend. Our relationship has lasted for three years..."
The audio wasn’t long, totaling less than three minutes.
But the content was rich, detailing Wang Guodong’s affairs comprehensively, with no reservations.
Faced with such evidence, Xu Wen was completely dumbfounded.
Without meticulous investigation, it would be impossible to uncover so much evidence.
Could all this have been orchestrated by Lin Yi?!
Thinking it through, Xu Wen confirmed this suspicion.
No wonder he’d always said not to worry, secretly doing so much.
Xu Wen was moved and didn’t know how to repay Lin Yi.
As the audio ended, Ma Huaiyang looked at Wang Guodong.
"Now, do you have anything to say?"
"You must have fabricated it; you’re slandering me!"
"If you believe this is fake evidence, you could call this woman named Zhang Xue to inquire."
"Don’t worry, even if you don’t, I will."
Wang Guodong took out his phone and called Zhang Xue.
But after several attempts, he couldn’t get through.
Then he tried sending her a video, only to find he’d been blocked.
Seeing this, Wang Guodong was utterly dumbfounded, with nothing left to defend himself.
"She might be busy; I can’t reach her, but this evidence is definitely flawed!"
Ma Huaiyang chuckled, "If you’re not involved with this Zhang Xue, why would you have her contact information?"
At these words, Wang Guodong sat in his chair as if struck by lightning, his face pale, sweating profusely, unable to utter a word.
Ma Huaiyang turned to Li Changjiang, adding insult to injury:
"Do you have anything to add?"
Li Changjiang’s expression crumbled, not expecting the trap set here!
Now with the evidence clear, nothing he could say would matter.
"I have nothing to add."
Ding Zhijun looked at Wang Guodong, "The evidence is right in front of you; if you wish to defend yourself, do it now."
Wang Guodong’s eyes were vacant, losing even the last glimmer.
"I admit to the affair."
"Typically, for such actions, you would leave with nothing; but we’re in mediation now, and it’s up to both parties to discuss specifics."
Having said this, Ding Zhijun looked at Xu Wen.
With the developments so far, it was time for her to express her thoughts.
"I don’t need him to leave with nothing, just to draw a clear boundary. What’s mine stays mine; I don’t want anything of his," Xu Wen said.
Ding Zhijun looked at Wang Guodong, "Do you agree?"
"Agree."
Wang Guodong knew this was the best outcome; otherwise, he’d have a problem in the head.
"Since there are no objections from either side, today’s mediation concludes here."
Then, Ding Zhijun produced several documents, and both parties signed their names, marking the end of the off-the-record mediation.
Xu Wen breathed a sigh of relief, finally lifting the weight from her heart.
As they exited the mediation room, Xu Wen bowed repeatedly to Ma Huaiyang.
"Lawyer Ma, thank you so much; without you, this result wouldn’t have been possible."
"No need to thank me; thank Mr. Lin Yi instead. He arranged for all of this."
"I also need to thank you. Let’s exchange numbers and give me a chance to treat you to a meal."
"That’s not necessary; it was my duty."
Ma Huaiyang glanced at his watch, "I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll make a move."
"Alright, go ahead."
After exchanging a few more polite words, Xu Wen watched Ma Huaiyang get into his car, watching him leave.
Returning to her own car, Xu Wen calmed herself for quite a while.
She knew clearly that Lin Yi was behind all this; without him, the house might have been lost.
Taking out her phone, Xu Wen called Lin Yi.
"It’s over. The house is secure."
"I told you not to worry; now you can work peacefully."
"You’re something else, preparing so much without even telling me."
"It’s nothing really, nothing worth mentioning; you don’t need to dwell on it."
"How can I not? You’ve helped me so much; I must at least get a chance to thank you," Xu Wen said:
"Do you have plans tonight? Would you like to come over? I’ll cook for you myself."
"Can’t do these days; I have some personal matters to handle and already arranged for someone to cover my shift."
"What’s the matter? Is there anything I can help with?"
"You truly can’t help with this; let’s talk about it when I get back."
"Alright, take care."
...
Meanwhile, Lin Yi had already arrived at the airport, preparing to head to Djibouti for the final system task of this phase.
