The development of the incident was just as Chu Yifeng predicted. After Yu Hongming found out that his son was indeed the cause of this trouble, he immediately began networking in order to help excuse Yu Hongzhi.
However, according to surveillance that was imported to the police station from various perspectives, it could be judged that Yu Hongzhi had driven on that street that night. After identifying their car, they found that its bumper was a little dented with blood splatters on it. With DNA testing, it was determined to be the blood of the victim.
Yu Hongzhi had never expected for there to be a witness that night. Fortunately, the witness only said that he saw the car that hit the victim, not that he saw the perpetrator who hit the victim. Yu Hongming took advantage of this and decided to find someone to help be the scapegoat for Yu Hongzhi.
The people who were with Yu Hongzhi that night were all rich and wealthy second generations, so it was impossible for them to take the blame. Yu Hongming approached his personal driver and promised to give him one million as long as he went to jail instead of Yu Hongzhi. This way, the driver’s son could go abroad to further his studies, and his wife and parents could also live a good life.
The driver agreed, so for one million yuan, he went forward to admit that he had driven the car that night.
However, many people didn’t believe them, not only because this was an excuse commonly used by the rich, but also because the owner of the car was Yu Hongzhi. Yu Hongzhi always drove his car himself and had never once used a driver. Now that everyone was agreeing on this new course of events, though, they found they had no evidence to prove that Yu Hongzhi had driven his own car that night. So, the police had no choice but to release Yu Hongzhi.
Since the driver’s family was not rich and couldn’t come up with the compensation money [T/N: for the victim’s hospital fees and such], Yu Hongming stood up in front of the media and insincerely stated that since the incident was caused by his son’s behavior, he was willing to help the driver pay the bills. It was originally a good idea, as he wanted to take this opportunity to form a good public image. However, Wang Cheng and Chu Yifeng would not let them achieve what they wanted to.
Just when everyone thought this whole thing would come to an end, a group of pictures was released on the Internet. The content of the pictures alone could knock Yu Hongzhi down forever.
The first five pictures were Yu Hongzhi and his companions in the private room with the chaotic drugs and sex. Except for Yu Hongzhi, everyone else’s faces were censored. Continuing from the sixth picture, they left the bar together, and the three people drunkenly got into Yu Hongzhi's car. Next, there was a clear picture of Yu Hongzhi sitting in the driver's seat. His steps seemed unsteady, his face was flushed, and his expression was a little confused; one could see that he was drunk.
After that was the scene of the car accident.
