Chapter 553 - 553 Confession
553 Confession
It was the easiest to catch someone by surprise when one was caught off guard. They caught Lin Xi like this.
Lin Xi’s mouth was sealed with tape, and her eyes were covered with black cloth. Her hands were tied behind her back, and she was pushed forward by two bodyguards.
Her heart was filled with fear. The only person she could remember offending was Su Wan.
The moment Jiang Xin saw Lin Xi, her eyes widened, filled with disbelief.
It was only when she was brought in front of Su Wan and the others that Zhao Lin got someone to untie the black cloth and tear open the tape on Lin Xi’s mouth. The intense tearing sensation made her skin hurt. Lin Xi frowned and slowly opened her eyes. She saw Su Wan, Jing Chen, and the others standing in front of her. Beside her was Jiang Xin, who was tied to a chair.
“Miss…”
Lin Xi’s face was bitter. She opened her mouth, not knowing how to explain this to Jiang Xin.
“Didn’t I tell you to guard the company? Why were you caught?” Jiang Xin growled, filled with anger.
Lin Xi hesitated, feeling that it was a little embarrassing to say this. After all, she was the one who was stupid and fell for Zhao Lin’s trap. “Someone pretended to be you and asked me to immediately go to the first floor of the company building. Then, my vision darkened and I was brought here with something over my head…”
She didn’t dare to look at Jiang Xin’s expression and lowered her head. She knew that Jiang Xin had reminded her repeatedly not to leave the company before she left in the morning, but these people used Jiang Xin’s name and said it was urgent, so she believed them. She thought that she would be fine below the company building, but she didn’t expect to be tricked to go to a remote place.
“What a useless thing!” Jiang Xin couldn’t help but curse.
“Alright, if you two want to catch up, wait for us to settle our scores before continuing. I don’t have time to tell you nonsense now.” Su Wan frowned and interrupted their conversation.
As she spoke, Su Wan didn’t give Lin Xi a chance to think and continued, “Lin Xi, I remember that after Hao Hao was kidnapped, you’ve been guarding him, right?”
Lin Xi was frightened by this sudden question. She felt even more guilty and was even starting to be afraid. Su Wan’s question meant that Su Wan was going to start settling scores with her. “No, it’s not me…”
Lin Xi closed her eyes tightly. At the last moment, she recalled that Jiang Xin had always denied those things. As Jiang Xin’s assistant, it was even more impossible for her to admit it.
“Liar!” Su Wan shouted coldly. “Why? Do you want everyone to know what happened in Jiang Xin’s private villa that night?”
Jiang Xin was stubborn and wouldn’t open her mouth, but that didn’t mean that Lin Xi was also a stubborn person.
Su Jing had previously told her a bit about what happened that night. Li Hui also said that when she saw Lin Xi the next day, Lin Xi was completely wrapped up, probably because she didn’t want to reveal anything.
It would be a pity not to get a hold of this.
Lin Xi looked up in shock, as if she didn’t expect Su Wan to know about that night. Jing Hao had clearly escaped at that time!
“Lin Xi, I advise you to tell the truth.” Su Wan narrowed her eyes and threatened Lin Xi. After a pause, she added, “Otherwise, I’ll immediately get all the major platforms to repost your deeds that night.”
If this matter of her being r*ped by a bodyguard were to spread, Lin Xi would no longer have any face to speak of.
Lin Xi was afraid. When a person was in danger, it was the best time to see how loyal they were. She glanced at Jiang Xin. Jiang Xin clearly didn’t know what had happened, but she still shook her head at her, threatening her with a warning gaze that it was best if she didn’t admit to kidnapping Jing Hao.
However, Lin Xi already had the intention to leave the Jiang Corporation. Now that she saw that Jiang Xin actually disregarded her reputation, her heart turned cold. She closed her eyes and when she opened them again, a trace of determination flashed across her eyes. “President Su, we kidnapped your son, but I was just going to watch over him to prevent him from escaping. I didn’t do anything to him.”
With that explanation, she just hoped that Su Wan would show her mercy.
Jiang Xin stared at Lin Xi in disbelief. She couldn’t believe that Lin Xi would betray her with just a few words!
When she went out, she would definitely fire Lin Xi!
Lin Xi was looking forward to Su Wan’s reaction, but Su Wan shook her head and looked very disappointed. “That’s not the answer I want.”
