The Beautiful County Magistrate
Chapter 160: The Truth Revealed!

Chapter 160: Chapter 160: The Truth Revealed!

Everyone’s gaze shifted over, curious to see what video it was.

Soon, it became clear, displaying surveillance footage of a hallway on the screen.

A door in the hallway opened, and two women walked out, chatting as they walked.

"I spit, what is he anyway, just the Government Office Director, acting all high and mighty, looking down on us sisters. We almost stripped naked and threw ourselves at him, but he wasn’t interested, treating us with utter disdain. It infuriated me to death!"

"Exactly, such handsome men are rare. We tried everything we could, and he still ignored us completely. It’s despicable. Ah, if only we could climb up the ranks by associating with him. He’s about to become the new County Magistrate’s secretary; his future is boundless. It would be so much better than sticking with that old fart, Li Zhu."

"Sister, you’re right. Compared to that old fart, Li Zhu, and those disgusting men that Li Zhu used to make us entertain, Xu Qianli is both young and handsome. I really want to sleep with him. If I could be with him just once, I’d consider my life complete, even if it shortened my life by two years. Unfortunately, his standards are too high. I threw myself into his arms, and he still wasn’t moved. It’s infuriating..."

The women’s conversation was exhaustively exposed as every word was broadcasted, causing everyone present to prick up their ears and listen.

They were not just listening but also watching how provocatively dressed the two were, with attire far more revealing than what club hostesses wore, utterly cheap.

And to think who they could be? Upon closer inspection, weren’t those Li Xiuhong and Li Xiuli?

It was a shame, given they had previously vehemently claimed Xu Qianli had harassed them, forcibly stripping them and groping them thoroughly.

It turned out they were the ones throwing themselves at Xu Qianli, who showed no interest in them!

Watching the video, Li Xiuhong and Li Xiuli were absolutely dumbfounded.

Good heavens, their conversation about Xu Qianli as they exited Li Zhu’s office had been recorded and somehow acquired by Xu Qianli, who played it for everyone to see, revealing everything. They had lost all face.

Xu Qianli looked at them with a half-smile, "So, do you have anything else to say?"

Li Xiuhong and Li Xiuli were at a loss for words, heads bowed, wishing they could hide away in a hole.

"You two have nothing to say, right? Good if there’s nothing."

"Kai, play the video again, let everyone know where Disciplinary Committee Secretary Li’s gifts come from."

At Xu Qianli’s command, the video switched to another hallway. Li Zhu, sporting a bulging belly, walked into a room and soon came out with two snake-skin sacks, then headed to his office.

Then, someone opened the room that Li Zhu had entered, filming inside—it was a warehouse filled with various famous liquors and cigars, cash and jewels.

Accompanying the video, Wu Kai made his appearance, directing a squad of criminal police colleagues who busied themselves carrying crates after crates of assets to the conference hall and opened them—all revealing valuables.

Most eye-catching were a pair of mammoth ivory carvings, at least two meters long, indescribably exquisite and obviously very valuable.

Xu Qianli had been taken away by the City Disciplinary Inspection Committee the previous day but had managed to make a call to Wu Kai after getting released, asking him to quietly take his team to the Qingshan Town Government Comprehensive Building to retrieve some items.

The surveillance from the Qingshan Town Government Comprehensive Building and these assets were Wu Kai’s spoils.

Now, revealing the video together with the assets, Li Zhu’s face turned ugly as he broke out in a cold sweat, collapsing into his seat, shaking all over, cursing his fate, thinking he was done for.

Ge Changhong slammed his hand on the table and pointed at Li Zhu, his voice thundering as he denounced him for his illegal and disorderly conduct, for accumulating so much wealth and for framing Xu Qianli. He termed it utterly reprehensible!

Disciplinary Committee Secretary Fan Hua stood up and asked someone to present the property that Xu Qianli had turned in, which Li Zhu had gifted earlier, and informed everyone that Xu Qianli had handed over the property immediately after returning from Qingshan Town that very day, and the Disciplinary Committee had records to prove it.

Suddenly, it dawned on everyone.

It turned out that those who had been crying and accusing Xu Qianli of molestation, Li Xiuhong and Li Xiuli, had falsely accused him, and Li Zhu, who claimed that Xu Qianli had took bribes, was actually the one who had embezzled a large sum of money and then slandered Xu Qianli.

It appeared that everyone had misunderstood Xu Qianli and wrongly blamed him.

As for that woman Li Xiaoju, although Xu Qianli had yet to prove his innocence regarding the accusation of raping her, no one believed her anymore, and everyone was convinced of Xu Qianli’s innocence.

Seeing that the situation completely shifted in favor of Xu Qianli, Zhang Kuisan couldn’t contain his frustration, "Even if Li Zhu embezzled money and Li Xiuhong and Li Xiuli falsely accused, it doesn’t prove that Xu Qianli didn’t rape Li Xiaoju! Xu Qianli, I ask you, can you prove your innocence? If you can’t, this will be a stain on your life forever!"

"Prove my innocence?"

"Who says I can’t prove my innocence?"

Xu Qianli cast his gaze toward Li Xiaoju.

"You said I raped you, described it vividly, even specified the different positions I used, so why don’t you tell us, do I have any unique marks, any moles or birthmarks, do I have abs, or perhaps you could describe some aspects of my size or length."

"You claim I abused you for several hours, surely you must have seen something."

Li Xiaoju was left speechless by the question.

That day, she was pushed by her Uncle Li Zhu to serve Xu Qianli, only to find out that Xu Qianli had no intent of abusing her and even kindly helped her out.

Not to mention doing that act, Xu Qianli didn’t even take off his clothes, how could she possibly know any distinguishing features on Xu Qianli’s body?

Seeing Li Xiaoju remain silent, Zhang Kuisan said, "Perhaps she was too nervous at the time and didn’t see anything!"

"Bullshit!"

With a roar, Xu Qianli tore off his shirt in front of everyone, turned around twice, and loudly exclaimed while pounding his chest,

"I risked my life to save someone a while ago, and have many burns and scalds on my back and arms, such visible scars, how could anyone who saw them forget?"

"Moreover, a woman who claims I stripped her naked and violently abused her for two to three hours?"

"Li Xiaoju, you know how I treated you that day, any other man would have taken advantage of you."

"Not only did I not abuse you, but I also played along to get the situation over with so that you wouldn’t be troubled by Li Zhu. Yet, you falsely accuse me of abusing you, has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"

"Or, do you not have any conscience at all?"

After being bluntly scolded by Xu Qianli, Li Xiaoju burst into tears and suddenly knelt down before him.

"Director Xu, I was wrong, I really was wrong."

"It wasn’t my intention to do so, I was forced, they captured my parents and threatened to kill them unless I agreed to falsely accuse you, that’s why I did it against my conscience."

"I was wrong, I realize my mistake, sob sob sob..."
