Mr. Liu nodded and continued to explain, "The video was edited from a surveillance camera. Based on the video, it should be from outside of a building and the time it was taken was when there are not a lot of people outside. And the video should be no more than 20 minutes long. However, only two parts were cut and merged into one video before it became one minute long."
Mr. Liu deduced that the person who cut the parts and merged them together had some intentions behind this. Showing only the part where the other woman in the video was seen speaking and crying and not what happened in the middle of it was evidence enough for his deduction.
But he didn't need to say this out loud.
"What about you, Ms. Li? Can you please tell us what you noticed and analyzed in the video?"
The psychologist and facial expression expert was named and said in a professional tone, "The video is a bit too short and dark which could cloud anyone's view of this video. However, as an expert, this wouldn't be a hindrance to us and with a bit of tuning and zooming the video on pause, I can tell that the tears in that woman's face are real."
The newscaster looked at the director again but still did not receive a signal from him. So he could only continue to ask out of curiosity, "Then... does this mean that we can assume that the actress in the video really did something to the other person?"
Everybody who was watching this news live was tense and sat on the edges of their chairs, wishing they could replace the newscaster and ask a few more questions.
Li Shixian shook her head under everyone's eyes. "That is not something I can determine with this video alone. However, it is true that the tears are real, but there are different kinds of tears brought by several emotions. Sadness, joy, excitement, and intense anger."

"Then, what kind of emotion is behind her tears?"
"Anxiety and panic." Li Shixian revealed what she saw and explained when the newscaster showed a confused expression. "Look, right now, you're showing a confused look because you can't understand why I said those two emotions. The woman in the video was crying, not because she was sad because of unfairness or injustice. It was anxiety and panic for fear of the consequences of her actions. It's the same feeling we all feel when we are guilty of stealing from our mother's wallet."
...
Back inside the hospital, Ran Xueyi pressed the remote control and the screen turned off.
Adelle walked towards her and gave the documents sent to her by Wu Qi. She said, "The company's legal department is already working to take this matter to the next stage. Senior Wu is only waiting for you to say the go signal and the police will arrest Steffanie and Shi Lian for libel, slander, spreading false information, and felony after attempting a physical assault."
"In this case, with all the cases stacked on their heads, they will be given 5 to 7 years for all the first cases. As for felony, the court will base it on the severity of the crime committed. Using an extremely harmful chemical acid in order to disfigure your face, I think they will receive another 5 years of jail time."
Ran Xueyi nodded and looked at the documents in her hand.
With only her hand, she could destroy Steffanie's life forever. A signature from the victim was this powerful if it was used correctly.
"But where did you find those experts in the live news? How much did you pay for them to appear on the news?" Adelle sat down and stared at her phone where the live news was still being broadcasted. "We released that short video after sending another video to the entire filming crew to confuse everybody and make them think that you're the one at fault here. But I never expected that you even hired experts to counter the situation."
"I never hired them." Ran Xueyi's voice sounded indifferent.
"Huh?" Adelle was shocked. "You...you didn't? Are you sure?"

"Yes."
"Then, who did?'
At this time, Song Yu Han stepped inside the room and answered, "It was me."
After saying this, he walked towards Ran Xueyi and sat next to her very naturally.
Guo Yun, who was following Song Yu Han, saw Adelle, who wanted to know more but too afraid to ask the big boss and explained, "Boss saw the video Madam released. So, he thought that many people will question the authenticity of the video and assume many things and tarnish Madam's name and reputation. In order to not let that happen, he spoke to Mr. Liu and Miss Li personally to ask them to appear on the news station and analyze the video in front of everyone in the country."
Ran Xueyi silently stared at the man sitting next to her and sighed. "There's really no need to waste money to hire experts to tell the truth."
"I didn't give them money. I spoke to them and told them to do me a favor. Mr. Liu and Miss Li were very kind to listen to their student's favor and did this for my sake." Song Yu Han filled the glass with water and handed it to her. "Of course, I don't mean to take advantage of their kindness and not give them anything. They will receive something else."
"But still, I had everything under my control." Ran Xueyi really didn't want Song Yu Han to take care of her matters in the entertainment industry. She could handle them herself and if she really couldn't, she would personally ask him to help her. This was their agreement.
Song Yu Han knew what she was thinking and readily replied, "I also don't mean to intervene, but Xiao Zhanzhan was worried and told me to help you or he won't sleep at all. And you know, I can't defeat our son when he decides on something."
Ran Xueyi knew her son's character well the most. If Xiao Zhanzhan said that he won't sleep then he really won't sleep. Even she had a hard time coaxing him to sleep when he decided on something.
But Ran Xueyi thought that, at the very least, Song Yu Han could reign over their son's stubborn character. Sadly, it seems that Ran Xueyi was thinking too much.
Even the Alpha male and tyrant can be defeated by the little king of stubbornness.
