Chapter 297: Never Let Chen Yuqi Turn Over Again

By the third day, the situation had escalated beyond repair.

Even many of the people Chen Yuqi implicated had reached the stage of being filed for investigation.

That morning, Chen Yuqi was finally invited by the police for tea.

At the police station, Chen Yuqi openly admitted to his economic crimes and the charge of inducing forced relations, even speaking eloquently in the interrogation room.

Police comrade, I sincerely repent and reform; please treat me leniently—I truly know I was wrong.

The police were also at a loss; with these two charges, leniency is hard to come by.

Considering your voluntary surrender, we will take it into consideration; now please provide your criminal evidence—voluntary submission can count as your surrender. If we discover any illegal acts beyond your confession, don't blame us for the law being merciless.

Chen Yuqi immediately expressed full cooperation and promptly handed over the materials he had prepared, with both hands.

Those documents listed all his criminal facts and evidence.

Yet the female celebrities and models he had lured and forced into relations, he kept his master's instructions in mind and completely concealed their information.

After reading them, the police couldn't help but ask curiously.

Do you not even know the specific identities of the girls you've harmed?

Chen Yuqi said with a righteous face: 'They are all innocent girls I harmed; of course I must protect their privacy.'

The police were stunned, feeling at once that this person was utterly contradictory—having done all the evil, yet here acting hypocritically.

Could it be that all of this is just his act?

No wonder he's the Movie Emperor—his acting is too superb, portraying the character's contradictory, split feeling without a trace.

The news that Chen Yuqi was taken away by the police for investigation quickly exploded online.

Lin Lin Mengye also silently followed the matter.

But soon, Lin Lin Mengye felt that her control over Chen Yuqi had finally vanished, the Soul-binding Bell had failed, and Chen Yuqi should wake up.

At the same time, in the police station, Chen Yuqi suddenly shuddered, then lifted his head dazedly as if just waking up.

Where is this?

He shook his head, his memory still stuck at the time he got drunk that night.

After leaving the club, he went home—how could he end up here?

Chen Yuqi quickly sensed something was off, fearing he had been brought to the police station for causing a drunken disturbance, and hurriedly spoke.

Police comrade, could you let me go first? I'm a public figure—this would have a huge impact on me.

Chen Yuqi spoke while rummaging through his pockets, hoping to call his driver to pick him up quickly, only to find them empty.

At that moment, the police officer also heard Chen Yuqi's words, as if hearing a joke.

What's this performance? You just finished surrendering, confessed to all your crimes, and now you say this—do you really think our police station is so casual?

Mr. Chen Yuqi, I am now formally arresting you. If you have any objections, you may consult a lawyer at any time—but don't think you can keep changing your story; in the face of evidence, you cannot arbitrarily recant and quibble.

……

Upon learning that Chen Yuqi had been taken away by the police, Lin Lin Mengye couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.

The Soul-binding Bell is very effective against ordinary people, and leaves no trace afterward.

After Chen Yuqi regains consciousness and learns of his bizarre actions, he will likely collapse outright.

In response, Lin Lin Mengye only wanted to give him three words: 'You had it coming~'

After a while, Song Zhi came to visit again.

Lin Lin Mengye knew her intention, but since Chen Yuqi's deeds were such, she naturally couldn't tell Song Zhi the truth, so she had the maiden aunt send her away.

Maiden aunt, just tell her I'm not home. If she still wants to ask when I'll be back, please give her this message: say that person brought it upon himself, evil meets evil retribution—let her stop worrying about this matter and focus on her own career.

Although Lin Cuihua only half understood, she still followed Lin Lin Mengye's words and turned away Song Zhi.

Upon hearing Lin Lin Mengye's reply, Song Zhi couldn't help but feel shocked.

She always felt that Chen Yuqi's series of bewildering self-destructive actions must be related to Lin Lin Mengye.

But she wasn't stupid; Lin Lin Mengye's saying that meant she didn't want to bring it up again.

Then Chen Yuqi deserved it—his punishment was fitting, and seeing his downfall was gratifying; she wished for nothing more.

So Song Zhi wisely chose to heed Lin Lin Mengye's words and no longer paid attention to or concerned herself with Chen Yuqi's affairs.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the earth, Ye Chenjing, after taking the Aperture-Clearing Pill, saw his work efficiency soar day by day; his energy was so good that after finishing the group's business each day, he still had the stamina to return to the hotel to lift weights and box.

His high-energy state left Sun Yao astonished.

Sun Yao wondered whether General Manager Ye had received some stimulus.

The news of Chen Yuqi spread across the internet, sparking heated discussion—naturally Ye Chenjing could not escape it either.

Upon learning of the sordid things Chen Yuqi had done, he couldn't help but feel a wave of dread.

Fortunately Lin Lin Mengye is formidable; otherwise, he might also have been poisoned by such a beast.

Sun Yao likewise felt righteous indignation, and couldn't help but recall that dating show.

That beast surely had designs on Miss Lin during the dating show; fortunately Miss Lin is formidable, otherwise the consequences would be unthinkable.

But retribution came swiftly too—who would have thought this beast would fall so quickly? Truly, evil meets its due reward!

However, his livestream looks truly odd—someone as arrogant and conceited as him would actually volunteer to confess everything.

Sun Yao watched the livestream clips online and always felt something was off.

Today Chen Yuqi's tone shifted abruptly; he began to outright deny his livestream remarks, claiming he had been set up and never said those words.

But he is now detained, and all the evidence shows his crimes are numerous.

Moreover, the livestream footage from that time underwent professional technical appraisal, and the analysis concluded that Chen Yuqi was clearly broadcasting while sober that night, with no possibility of later fabrication.

All his words and actions were performed by himself in a normal state.

Yet now he repeatedly insists he could not have said those things, voluntarily providing evidence to the police, even suspecting he had been poisoned with gu and sorcery, and demanding a shaman be summoned on the spot.

This behavior naturally drew ridicule from the entire internet.

But upon careful thought, Chen Yuqi's extreme contradiction before and after is indeed bizarre; even if it were a split personality, it wouldn't be this much, let alone that Chen Yuqi has no mental illness.

Sun Yao muttered, but Ye Chenjing interrupted him.

"Never mind what's going on with him; in short, justice must be served. Keep a close eye on this matter lately, and don't give him any chance to turn things around."

Sun Yao understood at once: General Manager intends to press Chen Yuqi down into the filthy ditch forever, never letting him rise again, you know.

Anyone who intends to harm Miss Lin will certainly not be let off by General Manager.

As for Ye Chenjing, although he doesn't say it out loud, he clearly knows in his heart that Chen Yuqi's such abnormal behavior might be Lin Lin Mengye's masterpiece.

She has such means; he finds it not at all strange.

Especially after taking the Opening Aperture Pill, Ye Chenjing increasingly feels that Lin Lin Mengye is capable of anything.

Precisely for this reason, he now feels extremely conflicted, worrying about himself.

Lin Lin Mengye is so capable; wouldn't she think he's too weak and always just see him as a little brother?
