Chapter 195 - 195: Petty and Vengeful
Shen Wan, while dragging Lushen away, didn’t forget to grab the leftover white spray paint in the corner.
She hauled him to the parking lot and unceremoniously dumped him onto the car hood.
“Ouch—” Lushen winced, his furrowed brows betraying a hint of suppressed pain.
That was no gentle drop.
Shen Wan, seeing his reaction, thought to herself that her recent training had paid off. She had grown stronger, and with a bit of skill, taking down Lushen was no problem.
“How does it feel, Seventh Lord? Remember this?” Shen Wan patted the car hood, producing several loud clangs, her smile unwavering, “This is your handiwork. Fun, isn’t it?”
Lushen glanced at the Maserati’s hood, smeared with red and white paint in stark contrast, but stubbornly denied any involvement. “You, woman, trying to pin this on me with just a few words? Who can prove it? Go check the surveillance if you’re so sure.”
“How can 1 check the footage when it was already deleted? Maybe the Seventh Lord can enlighten me?”
He lifted his eyelids, giving her a strange look.
Shen Wan continued, “1 bet you’re wondering how 1 knew, right?”
Lushen remained silent. Was this woman’s intuition really so sharp?
“It’s simple. Recently, other than the Seventh Lord, I’ve had no other enemies.”
“But how did you know I was in the surveillance room?” Normally, wouldn’t people ask security to check the footage first, find the culprit, and then call the police?
But this woman, without a word, charged in and caught him, as if she knew he would be hiding there. Lushen wondered how he could have been so careful yet still left no trace…
“So, is the Seventh Lord admitting it?”
Lushen’s expression darkened. “I did not!”
“You’re not admitting, but you definitely did it—is that what you mean?”
“Damn it!” Lushen thought, this cunning woman was clearly setting a trap, whether he admitted it or not, she had a response ready.
Shen Wan gave him a knowing and mocking glance as if to say, “1 knew you were a big liar with no integrity”—
“I don’t mind letting you know. Given the Seventh Lord’s petty and vengeful nature, what could be more satisfying than seeing me embarrassed and enraged? For that, you would definitely stay, hoping to witness me in a fit of fury.”
Bingo!
But… petty and vengeful, really?
His gaze turned mournful as if he had been deeply insulted. “You’re actually cursing me?!”
“Why not? Who do you think you are?”
“On what grounds? You think you’re someone special?”
“Because I own this car. And don’t you have a clue what you did to my car?” Shen Wan kept slapping the hood as if it were Lushen’s face.
Lushen’s temple twitched, and he turned his head away. “Say whatever you want, it wasn’t me.”
“Are you sure?”
“Ha—Absolutely sure, definitely, and positively!” With all the surveillance footage deleted, he didn’t believe Shen Wan could find any evidence to prove it was him.
“Such a pity…” the woman sighed languidly.
Lushen’s eyes flickered. “What do you mean?”
“Seventh Lord, have you ever heard the old saying, ‘Smart for a lifetime, foolish for a moment’?”
The man remained silent, well aware that the more he said, the more mistakes he could make. Silence is golden, after all.
It seemed even the foolish son of a wealthy family wasn’t beyond redemption.
Shen Wan’s smile grew. “Indeed, you deleted the garage surveillance footage, and 1 can’t recover it. But did you know there are cameras inside the security department’s surveillance room? Weren’t you aware of that?”
Lushen’s expression changed drastically.
Damn it! How could he have forgotten that?
The smile on the woman’s lips widened.. “Judging by your reaction, you really didn’t delete those, did you?”
