Chapter 1810: Did They Think She Was a Weakling? (40)
How did she escape?
Liang Liang was stunned at once, but he suddenly thought of something. His pupils shrank as he looked at Traceless.
Meanwhile, Qiao Yiyi frowned, her expression solemn and sorrowful. She recalled the situation that day.
Before she went to steal, she changed her clothes seriously and thought about her schedule that night.
At the time, her mother had stood behind her and asked, "Are you sure you want to go?"
Traceless nodded.
Her mother continued, "I just feel that it"s not very reliable. Besides, as a family of thieves, can we really clear our names? Yiyi, Mom just wishes for you to be happy. Isn"t our current state quite good?"
At the time, Traceless had been young and full of vigor.
Obviously, she had a lot of skills, but she couldn"t use them.
She wanted to appear in front of everyone openly. She did not want to be the timid and bullied daughter of the Qiao family"s ex-wife.
Hence, when she heard her mother"s words, she turned around excitedly and said, "Mom, I want to clear our names!"
Her mother was stunned. Qiao Yiyi"s face, which was 90% similar to hers, was filled with sorrow and worry. "I"m worried about you…"
"Mom, how would we know if we don"t try?"
Her mother continued asking her, "Why are you so stubborn? Thieves and police officers will not have a good ending!"
Qiao Yiyi did not answer and simply walked out.
Her mother shouted after her, "Yiyi, haven"t I taught you enough? Your father, he… I just don"t want you to get hurt, you—"
Before she could finish, Qiao Yiyi halted and turned around to look at her. "Mom, do you know why I have to go?"
Mom shook her head. "I don"t know."
Qiao Yiyi smiled bitterly and replied, "Because I don"t want my daughter to be a thief too."
Her mother was simply stunned.
She still remembered the hurt on her mother"s face back then.
Traceless.
She sounded unrestrained and cool, but how many people knew that she only wanted to be an ordinary person and lead an ordinary life?!
She knew that these words had hurt her mother.
But these were her heartfelt words.
When her mother had taught her to be a thief, she had already blamed her mother.
However, that was her status. She couldn"t choose her status, and she couldn"t choose her family background.
But now that she had a chance to clear her name, why shouldn"t she work hard?
Hence, she ignored her hurt mother and turned to leave.
She would use her clean slate to show her mother how blissful it was to be an ordinary person.
But she had never thought that the outcome would be like this.
After going through so much, she arrived at the item which had already been stolen and picked up the box. However, when she realized that its weight was off and there was nothing in it, her heart turned cold.
Not only was she unwilling to accept Liang Liang"s deception, she was even more unwilling to accept what she had said to her mother…
Furthermore, when she was pushed away by Liang Liang and was about to fall off the 58th floor of the building, she realized that if she fell, her body would be smashed into pieces!
In her panic, she threw the rope in an attempt to grab something next to her.
However, the floor of the rooftop was smooth and it was impossible to grab onto it.
The other end of the rope slid across the ground and her body slowly descended!
Her mother"s words flashed through her mind.
"A thief and a police officer can never be together."
