Chapter 714: Chapter 714 Literal Meaning (2) _1
Soon, an image appeared on the large screen in the middle of the stage.
All those present were media professionals, who could immediately recognize surveillance footage. The date and time were displayed in the upper right corner, with the second hand ticking away.
From the video, the location seemed to be a private casino, with seven or eight people gathered around gambling. Among them was a woman, slightly overweight. Due to the mask she was wearing, her face was obscured, making it impossible to guess her age.
The woman was on a hot streak, winning hand after hand, and becoming increasingly enthusiastic with each victory. She was placing higher and higher bets, and in the tenth round, she went all in.
Unfortunately, this time, the woman lost.
Due to the enormous amount of money she waged, she lost a substantial sum, prompting others to ask her to settle her debts.
The woman protested that she had enough money and encouraged others to continue playing. However, when everyone else declined, she reluctantly began transferring money to the other players via her mobile phone. After settling the payments, some left while others stayed to continue playing.
The woman didn’t leave. The video speed was sped up, showing her gambling until five in the morning. Only when everyone else had left, unable to keep up, she left the private casino with a crestfallen look.
The remaining footage followed the woman as she walked away from the casino. She seemed unaware that she was being filmed and took off her mask a little ways off from the casino, revealing her face clearly on the large screen...
Just then, Xia Wan’an spoke up: "Technicians, please pause the video."
Almost simultaneously, the video was paused.
The woman’s face was frozen on the screen.
Xia Wan’an deliberately paused for half a minute, then leaned slightly toward Qin Shujian’s microphone and addressed the room: "Everyone’s pretty familiar with this face, right? Even if you are, allow me to properly introduce her..."
"This is Ms. Wei Lifen, famously known as Qin Shujian’s birth mother. Did you notice the time during the video? It was last night... Do you recognize the street she walked down? It’s okay if you don’t. It’s Happiness Road, which is lined with surveillance cameras. I’m telling you all this so you can easily check the surveillance cameras to verify the authenticity of this video..."
"Okay, I’ve explained everything I need to. You all just bombarded Miss Qin Shujian with questions, now it’s time to hear some of her questions... Of course, I’ll be the one asking them for her."
As Xia Wan’an was speaking, she raised her hand to gently tap the large screen behind her, "In the video, Ms. Wei Lifen clearly uttered three words that you all must have heard, and if you didn’t, don’t worry, I have added subtitles. ’I’m not short of money’..."
"How does Ms. Wei Lifen, who supposedly doesn’t have money to provide medical aid her son, boldly claim she’s not short of money?"
"Moreover, why did Ms. Wei Lifen, who was at home crying all night, show up at a private casino?"
"And how did Ms. Wei Lifen, who claims to have sold her house to afford her son’s medical expenses and is impoverished, manage to lose 800,000 RMB in one night of gambling?"
