Chapter 1809: Did They Think She Was a Weakling? (39)
Liang Liang was stunned. "What do you mean?"
"What I mean is…" Qiao Yiyi said word by word, "I"ve never stolen that thing. Whether you believe me or not, it doesn"t matter! I"m a thief. If I steal that thing, I"ll only cause trouble for myself. You should know better than me what I"ve been like in the last half a year!!"
Whether you believe me or not…
As soon as she said this, Liang Liang partly believed her!
He stared at Traceless in disbelief.
He thought of Bai Anan"s confession, the place where the item had been stolen, and the earring she had left behind. He thought of Traceless" cooperation and how she had walked right into the trap.
At the time, he had thought that he was very smart. He had thought that Traceless had stolen the item so that she wouldn"t get herself into trouble and be hunted down. She would make it look like she was cooperating with the police to steal it and then discover that the item was missing. This way, no one would suspect her.
However, it was a pity that Traceless had not expected that he had already seen through her tricks and had thus laid a trap.
Half a year ago, Liang Liang had never thought that he would misunderstand Traceless.
But now, he suddenly realized that he had really misunderstood Traceless!
It was a misunderstanding…
This was all a misunderstanding!
He thought about what Bai Anan had done, and then he thought about Chief Bai"s expression. He suddenly understood something. He felt that he had been used and dragged into a complex scheme.
He stared at Traceless in shock and opened his mouth to speak, but he realized that he couldn"t utter a word.
He gulped as Traceless said expressionlessly, "I"ve never thought that you"d be this stupid… You"re a police officer and you have your coat, but have you ever thought about what sort of person I, Traceless, am? I have my own bottom line!! But perhaps, in your eyes, I"ll always be that unpresentable thief. That"s why you"re guessing my ident.i.ty."
Traceless stared at him and said, "That"s why you set me up!! Liang Liang, let me tell you… I"ve never hated anyone in my life, but now I hate you!"
Liang Liang paused. "Traceless, I—"
"You don"t have to say another word. From now on, we have nothing to do with each other. If you still feel the slightest bit of guilt, then please help me clear my name in the underworld. Don"t make me live a life worse than a street rat!"
Having said this, she turned and walked out.
Halfway through, someone suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Traceless turned her head and saw Liang Liang staring at her. "Traceless, I- I was really wrong. I misunderstood you… Traceless, don"t go. I know I was wrong. Can you give me another chance? Since it was a misunderstanding between us and we still love each other deeply, we can"t be apart… The misunderstanding has been resolved. Isn"t that a happy ending?"
A happy ending?
Qiao Yiyi stared at him and felt the irony.
Putting aside the fact that this misunderstanding had caused her to be in hiding for the past half a year, at the time…
As she thought of that scene, she felt as though her heart had been cut by a knife.
She bit her lip and stared at him, saying, "Do you think we can go back to how we were before? Liang Liang, I really don"t know if I should say that you"re innocent or stupid! Have you forgotten how I escaped that day?!"
