A Few Hours Ago  (Flashback)

"How daring of her to go to a place like this?"

Shen Zhilan shouted as she threw away the photos in her hands.

The photos were now scattered on the ground. In one of the photos, Shen Youlin could be seen injecting drugs inside her body, or in some other, she could be seen using a straw pipe to snort inside the drugs. 

Shen Zhilan's chest heaved up and down as she breathed heavily. Her whole face was red because of the anger.

"Yiling, call her here right now. I will break her legs today so that she won't be able to go to a place like this again."

"Mom, calm down. It is not good for you to get so much angry."

Shen Yiling patted her mother's back and looked at You Youxin who also stepped forward and said

"Aunt, Sister Yiling is right. You should not lose your calm at such a time."

Shen Zhilan glared at You Youxin fiercely and jerked Shen Yiling hands away from herself in anger.

She paced across the living hall with an anxious face as she said

"You girls can say this because both of you don't know what consequences that girl's actions can have. Our family's reputation will be lost because of her insensible actions. Ha…I think it already has been lost. If someone had already found about it and is sending us photos to blackmail us with their help then …we are in very big trouble."

Shen Zhilan sighed heavily and sat down on the couch as she pressed her temples with her fingers.

"All because of that girl…I don't know what wrong I have done to birth such a troublesome child."

You Youxin smiled bitterly when she heard Shen Zhilan's words. Hatred flashed in her eyes as she looked at Shen Zhilan and remembered how Shen Youlin used to put so much effort to earn just a little time to spend with her mother.

This was the so-called mother Shen Youlin had always tried to get close to.

Just a single piece of evidence against her was enough to make this mother wish to disown her.

She didn't seem to have any problem with her daughter doing drugs but she had a problem with her daughter going to such a place because she is afraid that Shen Youlin would be seen by others.

You Youxin just rolled her eyes and decided to go ahead with her plan.

She picked one of the photos from the ground with knitted brows. In the photo, Shen Youlin's back could be seen as she exited the bar but with someone else help.

"Aunt, I seem to recognize this girl who is helping Youlin out of the bar."   

You Youxin said as she forwarded the photo in her hand in front of Shen Zhilan who also had raised her head with a frown to look at it.

"Who is it?"

Shen Zhilan asked impatiently

"She is the friend Shen Youlin had made just a few months ago. Youlin had invited her to her birthday party also. Remember that girl…who had spilled the glass of wine in her hand in Youlin's birthday party and had collided with Young Master He…she is the same girl."

You Youxin didn't notice because she was very to proceed with her act but as soon as she finished her act, both, Shen Zhilan and Shen Yiling's eyes flickered meaningfully as they looked at each other.

They knew that this was the same girl who He Jian had defended in Song's and Shen's banquet last time.

They looked at You Youxin waiting for her to continue.

When You Youxin remained silent, Shen Yiling eyes flashed with annoyance and she asked her

"What more do you know about her?"

You Youxin moved her eyes away from the photo in her hand and raised her head to look at Shen Yiling.

"She is from some small town and currently she is studying in University C. She is in the same class as Youlin and Youlin ..."

You Youxin stopped amidst her words. Shen Yiling saw her eyes widening suddenly and You Youxin continued

"Aunt, now, I remember Youlin has been spending most of her time with this girl only since the past few months. I suddenly doubt that it is because of her that Youlin has suddenly become like this. Otherwise, Aunt, our Youlin is not such a girl who would indulge herself in such bad habits."

Even Shen Zhilan was now remembering what the butler of the villa where Shen Youlin is living in had told her.

  Shen Youlin had been there only for a very few days for the past few months.

From You Youxin's words, it was evident where she had been this whole time.

On the other hand, Shen Yiling's mind was just going in some other direction at this moment.

She remembered how He Jian had protected that girl in front of everyone in the banquet…how he had left so hurriedly when he had got a call.

'How is she?'

She remembered him asking.

Although she didn't want to accept, she knew somewhere inside her heart that it was someone who had informed him something about that girl. 

He had looked so panicked and concerned at that time…something she had never seen in his eyes.

Shen Yiling's eyes and heart seemed to stung with something every time she thought of all this.

The wheels of her mind turned fast and she looked at her mother suddenly.

"Mother Yiling has a plan…to save Shen family's reputation. We can also save Shen Youlin from getting blamed for anything by going according to this plan."

Shen Zhilan raised her head to look at her most intelligent and sensible daughter. Even at such a moment, she was thinking of saving her insensible and troublesome daughter.

Hearing her words, her heart seemed to calm down suddenly and she asked her daughter gently

"What is Yiling's plan?"

As Shen Yiling told her mother about her plan, You Youxin's eyes seemed to have become the most bright suddenly.

What she had written was just a trailer.

Shen Yiling had written the whole picture for her.

She could not be happier if everything went according to Shen Yiling's plan.
