Shuxin forced herself to calm down. She thought of a plan and shouted at the reporters, "I just saw Tong Wenbin's daughter sneak out of the stairwell."
Suddenly, all the reporters rushed to the stairwell like a fierce flood.
Shuxin took advantage of the temporary departure of the crowd and ran over to grab Li Yang's hand. "Let's go. Don't reason with these people. It won't work!"
The two of them ran out of the hospital and got into the car. Shuxin was panting.
Li Yang was still immersed in the emotions just now. Although he saw the comments on the web, it was far less shocking than what he felt at the scene. "How can they distort the truth like this?"
Shuxin patted Li Yang's shoulder and comforted him. "The world is fickle and human nature is fickle. These reporters can't wait to blow up the matter and report it to increase ratings. They don't care what the truth is. Calm down first. I'll call Qiao 'er and ask her about the situation with Auntie Xia. "
Shuxin dialed Tong Qiao's number. As soon as the call went through, Shuxin hurriedly said, "Qiao 'er, stay in the ward and don't come out. The hospital is full of reporters now."
"I know." Tong Qiao's unhappy voice came through. "Honey, do you think … there's no way to turn the situation around for my dad?"
"The army has already agreed to give me three days. Trust me, three days later, I'll definitely clear your dad's name." Shuxin was not comforting her but making a firm promise.
"But …" Tong Qiao paused for a moment. "Honey, thank you for staying by my side at this time. No matter what the result is … I appreciate your kindness."
Shuxin could tell that Tong Qiao still did not believe that she could clear Tong Wenbin's name.
However, she did not blame Tong Qiao. If it were her, she would not believe it either.
She was just a university student with no power or influence. How capable could she be? How could she fight against Du Guohua, who was powerful, well-prepared, and hiding in the dark?
If she didn't have the memories of her previous life and knew that the mastermind was Du Guohua, she wouldn't have been able to salvage the situation.
Shuxin did not say anything more. After comforting Tong Qiao for a while, she hung up the phone and turned to look at Li Yang, who had calmed down. "Let's go. It's almost nine o 'clock. Let's go to the cafe to meet Zhang Wenhai."
"Okay." Li Yang started the car.
Shuxin was afraid that Li Yang would be impulsive again, so she said, "Zhang Wenhai is definitely being watched by the media now. We must calm down later."
Li Yang blushed a little embarrassedly. He was a few years older than Shuxin, but he was not as calm as her. "What happened just now will not happen again."
At about ten past nine, Shuxin and Li Yang arrived at a cafe near the police station.
Shuxin had her reasons for choosing this place. On one hand, it was to prevent Zhang Wenhai from playing dirty tricks. On the other hand, the media would not dare to be too presumptuous.
The police were nearby, so they were more or less afraid.
Surprisingly, there were no media or reporters around the café.
Shuxin and Li Yang went in and scanned the café, but they did not see Zhang Wenhai.
Just as Shuxin was wondering if Zhang Wenhai did not want to come or if he was on the road, a woman with long blonde hair, bright red lips, and ugly makeup walked in front of them. "Follow me."
Shuxin blinked and looked at Li Yang in confusion. "Is this person talking to us?"
Li Yang was also confused. "I don't know. I don't think so. I don't know her."
