Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Staring at Xi Qianqian, Luo Zheng laughed derisively like she was looking at an idiot.
Xi Qianqian was momentarily speechless, for she did not expect her plan to harm Luo Zheng to backfire. She could not help but look at Mrs. Xi anxiously.
Mrs. Xi was so infuriated that her heart pounded rapidly. However, she still forced herself to put on a smile. “Luo Zheng, the Xi Family and Luo Family are on good terms with each other, why bother straining the relationship over something trivial? You and Qianqian are just like kids arguing with each other. There’s no need to get the police involved at all! What happened just now was my fault. I’ll make it up to you, so don’t take it to heart.”
Oh wow!
I’m very certain who Xi Qianqian took after. Should I praise Mrs. Xi for being able to stand and stoop at will?
She folded her arms and pretended to be enlightened. “So you and Grandpa are on good terms?”
Noticing that Mrs. Xi was nodding frantically, she added, “In that case, I will not call the police for now! But like you said, this involves someone’s life and can’t be resolved easily! Why don’t I tell Grandpa and get him to make a fair judgment?… ”
Luo Zheng replied in the same way that Mrs. Xi replied to her in the beginning.
Mrs. Xi’s smile stiffened.
The Gu, Luo, Chu and Xi Families were the four richest ones of Beijing.
The four families were related and had been maintaining a peaceful relationship on the surface while sticking to their own interests.
It was true that the Xi Family and Luo Family were on good terms. However, she didn’t care about her family at all and wanted to call the police… If the Luo Family were to find out, the Xi Family would definitely be in trouble because they were wrong!
Earlier, she thought that Luo Zheng was going to kill her daughter and hence was very confident… She could not help but look at her daughter with tears and resentment in her eyes.
Xi Qianqian did not expect to shoot herself in the foot.
Nor did she expect Luo Zheng to harp on it and put her mother in a difficult position… she glanced at Xi Mubai
Her brother’s behavior today made her absolutely disappointed and anger was all pent up within her.
Xi Mubai had always doted on Xi Qianqian but he was just distracted by the dream that he had.
At this moment, he slowly recovered from the shock. Still concerned about his sister, he asked softly, “Qianqian, was it you who pushed Luo Zheng and not the other way around?”
Xi Qianqian choked as she grimaced because of the pain in her leg. “Yes, I was the one who pushed her, but so what!?! She was the one who caused my leg to get shot and become crippled. I can’t dance anymore… ”
“Stop, stop! Xi Qianqian, you really are great at conjuring rumors. You know very well yourself how your leg got ruined. Stop trying to frame me! If you have what it takes, show me the evidence. Otherwise… I’ll sue you for attempted murder and defamation!”
Luo Zheng did not want to bother about her at first but she could not help but feel infuriated about Xi Qianqian constantly making an issue about it.
In this world, all it takes for a rumor to begin, is just some nonsense. If she did not clarify things, Xi Qianqian might just take the chance to distort the facts.
Xi Qianqian was clearly bringing it upon herself. Yet, she still put the blame on Luo Zheng and victimized herself just because she got shot in the leg.
What a scam. People tend to sympathize with the weak and neglect the truth!
Under such circ.u.mstances, one definitely could not keep quiet like a coward… Otherwise, others might just take your silence for admittance and suck you dry!
Xi Qianqian was speechless and she glared at Luo Zheng. All of a sudden, something flashed in her mind and it was as if she had thought about something.
At the next moment, her tone became excited. Pointing at Luo Zheng, she said, “Mother, Brother, she and those drug traffickers are in cahoots with each other! She knows the kingpin of the drug ring. Let’s report her to the police immediately… ”
Reminded of Luo Zheng’s conversation with Scarface, Xi Qianqian could not help but feel proud for getting hold of evidence against Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng was certain that Xi Qianqian was really stupid. She rolled her eyes and taunted, “Sure, go ahead, hurry and make a report! Otherwise, let’s report together. Do you think we’ll go to jail together?”
Xi Qianqian’s excitement died down after hearing Luo Zheng’s words!
Seeing this, Xi Mubai stepped forward and said to Luo Zheng, “Luo Zheng, my sister is young and insensible. She’s just been kidnapped so her emotions are unstable, thus causing her to act irrationally! WIll you please forgive her on my account… ”
