Chapter 669 - Lie Detector Tes
Jiang Ying Yue thought that the news story would end after reporting Lin Yehan's defamation lawsuit against Long Hui and the others, but she was mistaken. The news also covered Lin Yehan's own evidence that he gathered to prove that he didn't have an immoral affair with Jiang Ying Yue while she was still engaged with Long Hui.
He was able to obtain several surveillance videos on the same day the pictures and videos used in the cheating allegations were taken. The first clips showed that he indeed met Jiang Ying Yue and Little Jun by coincidence at the hospital when she brought her son for a pediatrician appointment. The surprise at meeting each other was clear as day on their faces. Also, Lin Yehan wasn't alone at that time. He was with Wang Yingjie who the news anchor introduced as one of the youngest yet already successful and accomplished surgeons in the country.
What the news anchor didn't mention was that Wang Yingjie was also a scion of a powerful family with deep roots in the country, similar to Feng Wan's background. (Feng Wan was the leader of the posh ladies who were Iris' fans and also PR officers of the Black Stars.) These families preferred to lie low to the point that not many were aware of how powerful and influential they really were. Even though Wang Yingjie wasn't the heir but only a son of a branch family, his current promising career as a successful surgeon had gained him enough respect from his entire clan, allowing at least some level of influence in his own right.
After the clips from the hospital, another set of short surveillance videos were shown. This time, the place was at the mall. In contrast to the suggestive photos and video which had already long spread like wildfire since Long Hui revealed them in court, the real surveillance video clips showed that both Lin Yehan and Jiang Ying Yue maintained appropriate distance from each other and polite behaviour for the entire time that they were together. It was also obvious that Jiang Ying Yue's main focus was her son. This only meant that the photos and video used in the cheating allegations were carefully chosen with malicious intentions.
In addition to the surveillance videos, Lin Yehan also provided the results of a lie detector test he took on his own volition.
"Mr. Lin Yehan was asked by the examiner several questions including the most important which is if he had an affair, both past and present, with Miss Jiang Ying Yue. He denied it and the polygraph test indicated that he was telling the truth. Meaning, that he really didn't have an affair with Miss Jiang," the news anchor reported.
Although lie detector tests weren't 100% accurate, Lin Yehan's test result was treated with more reliability because he was able to invite the Chief of Police himself to personally supervise the polygraph test procedure.
Iris raised an eyebrow upon seeing the Chief of Police, remembering that the man was the husband of Madam Si Xinyue, one of the Black Stars' posh ladies with Feng Wan.
"I told you that Eldest Brother doesn't need our help. He has his own power and it's nothing to scoff at," Jin Liwei said after noticing her reaction.
Iris nodded, feeling relieved that Lin Yehan finally took action to combat the cheating allegations between him and Jiang Ying Yue. She would've chosen the faster, more thorough, more ruthless, and not so legal method of hacking if it was her, but she was nonetheless quite impressed by the method he chose which was a more "proper" and legal way than her idea."Hmm…" She tapped her fingers on Jin Liwei's thigh. "This is good but not enough. Eldest Brother needs to show more."
"En. But I trust in him. I'm sure that he still has more up his sleeves."
Indeed, Lin Yehan had more.
Right after a personal statement by the Chief of Police giving his official seal of authenticity to Lin Yehan's polygraph test results was shown, the news story continued. This time, the focus shifted to Long Hui.
"Long Industries' Deputy CFO Long Hui, eldest brother of multi-award-winning musician Iris Long with the same father but different mothers, had accused his former fiancée and the mother of his son, Miss Jiang Ying Yue. The formerly engaged couple fought in a heated custody battle which garnered wide media coverage because of the cheating allegations between Miss Jiang and agricultural tycoon, Mr. Lin Yehan, and also because of Miss Jiang's impressive legal team which includes His Excellency Deng Gui, former head jurist in the international court of justice, and also Atty. Kang Huizhong, the official corporate lawyer of Jin Corporation.
"Yesterday, the custody battle for Mr. Long and Miss Jiang's son finally concluded with the judge deciding to give full custody of the child to the mother, Miss Jiang, and only limited visitation rights to Mr. Long.
"But before that final verdict yesterday, Mr. Long had accused Miss Jiang of cheating on him with Mr. Lin while she was still engaged with him, citing that it was the main reason why they fought and separated, eventually forcing him to file an official custody request for their son. However, new evidence imply otherwise."
Jiang Ying Yue's full attention was on the TV. Her body was actually leaning forward as if doing so would allow her to listen more clearly to the news. She was also curious like the others about this new evidence the news anchor was reporting on.
"New evidence has come to light indicating that Mr. Long and his new fiancée, Miss Mao Qiuyue from the Mao family, owners of Mao Textiles, are actually the ones who cheated first while Mr. Long was still engaged with Miss Jiang. The evidence alleges that Mr. Long's maternal family, the Zhengs, and the Maos have been in close contact with each other with the intention of matching Mr. Long and Miss Mao in marriage even though Mr. Long was in a relationship with Miss Jiang."
