Lisa could not do anything but leave him to do what he was best at; perhaps he would be able to find some detail that they could trace and investigate. Thus, he hung up the phone call for the time being.
As he came out of the study and returned to the living room, he saw that Jennie's expression did not seem right as she looked at him in great shock.
"What's wrong?" Lisa sat down beside her before skillfully picking up a grape from the plate and peeling it for Jennie.
After Jennie got pregnant, her palette had become increasingly tricky, almost to the level of a food critic. If the grape was not peeled, she could even taste the sour and astringent taste of the grape skin. However, this was a problem as the pulp of the grape was normally firm and stuck tightly to the skin.
All this made it very difficult to peel. Whilst attempting to do this, Lisa focused so hard that he nearly became cross-eyed.
Both of his hands and elbows rested on top of his long legs as he continuously peeled away the skin of the grapes for Jennie. At the same time, Jennie had hooked her arm into his.
"I saw some news just now about the police wanting to eliminate pornography and arresting a group of people from a private room in a KTV bar. Zhao Zhide and Zhu Hexuan were inside the private room." Jennie said. She felt that this matter was somewhat related to Lisa.
Lisa did not reply to her. After peeling off the skin, his wet fingers pinched the glossy pulp of the grape and fed it into Jennie's mouth. Then, he spread out his palm in front of her mouth, waiting for her to spit out the seed.
He explained simultaneously, "Although you say that you don't care about her, you kept looking at your phone this week. You even pulled Zhu Hexuan's phone number out of the blacklist. Zhu Hexuan doesn't want to strive hard; she didn't sue Zhao Zhide because she needed to protect her appearance. In that case, I decided to lend her a hand. This incident happened yesterday. I knew Zhao Zhide would be talking business with someone last night and that the appointment was scheduled to be at the KTV bar. Zhao Zhide had never cleanly discussed business, so prostitutes were bound to be present during every meeting. I was uncertain whether he would call Zhu Hexuan this time around, but catching him in the act would be sufficient. Thus, I had someone make an anonymous call to report to the police to get them arrested. However, I didn't expect Zhu Hexuan to genuinely be present. By the time the police catches them, they'll be able to extract the pictures from them, negating the risk of the pictures being leaked. Thus, Zhu Hexuan will be free from their clutches, even if the cost is that the event has to be publicized. After all, it's difficult to avoid this incident making the news."
The faces of Zhu Hexuan, Zhao Zhide, and others were pixelated in the photos on the news. They were not very easy to identify, but nothing it cannot be helped if there were busybodies who insisted on using the human flesh search engine to figure out their identitiesThe several pictures Jennie saw were posted by the official news account in Weibo, and there seemed to be many people who had been arrested. In the dimly lit KTV bar, the women did not appear to wear revealing clothing. The men and women were detained by the police, then lined up and walked out of the bar. They lowered their heads as they exited the building in an attempt to avoid the cameras.
Although the people in the photos tried their best to cover their faces, Jennie could still recognize Zhu Hexuan.
"What will happen to them?" Jennie ate the grape that Lisa had fed her.
"This is conclusive evidence. They are to be locked up for at least half a year according to the county regulations. If Zhu Hexuan has the guts to reveal that Zhao Zhide belongs to a prostitution ring, then he'll serve a heavier sentence. Besides this, it'll also be classified as coerced prostitution since Zhao Zhide had been blackmailing Zhu Hexuan with pictures and videos of her." Lisa narrowed his eyes. "If Zhu Hexuan has a bit of brains and ambition, she'll seize the opportunity to drag Zhao Zhide down. She won't be sentenced for long as I've asked Lawyer Zhou and he said that it should be for half a year. Zhao Zhide's criminal charge, however, is significant. It'll be pointless even if he knows people from all walks of life."
