Space And Rebirth 104 - Lies

As expected, when Su Chu finished her little outburst, it was as if lightning had stuck Qiao Hongye.

"You… You've already called the police?" Qiao Hongye muttered. In a flash, tears began to well up in her eyes. She did not know what to do, and all she could do was to grab tightly to Su Chu's arm. Her mind was in complete disarray.

Called the cops? That's why Su Chu and the rest came over to look for her? Were they afraid that she would escape, or that she would inform Cao Xing?!

But how did they find out…

Qiao Hongye's mind kept replaying everything that happened today. When her mind's image focused on Jing Yunzhao's departure this morning, her face turned pale. Could it be that Jing Yunzhao had seen her? Was that the reason she left the apartment with the rest? It was just to bait us out?

Thinking up to this point, Qiao Hongye rejected the notion immediately in her heart. 'No no, it can't be. If it was really like that, then aren't I acting like an idiot and getting led on by Jing Yunzhao?!'

Seeing Qiao Hongye absolutely terrified, in her heart, she felt like she had done a good deed, "You must be scared now? Qiao Hongye, how can you be so evil? Actually daring to steal my Biao-jie's things, even accusing my Biao-jie to be pregnant!"

Using something like pregnancy to spread rumors, how malicious!

Qiao Hongye bit her lip. Instantly, tears began to fall, "I didn't, I really came to visit Elder Sister. Whatever robber or whatnot that you mentioned, I don't know anything about it…"

"Oh, right … Is the one you're talking about Cao Xing? I just saw him enter the apartment complex. I've heard my friend mention it before that Cao Xing was a hooligan that didn't know his limits. When he entered, he even threatened me to feign ignorance. I still felt a little confused by it just now…" Qiao Hongye's brain started working again and quickly found herself another excuse.

If Cao Xing was caught, chances were that he would testify against her.

But she needed to leave herself an escape route. Therefore no matter what, she had to grit her teeth and bear with lying.

Qiao Hongye kept on repeating her bluff in her head a few times, numbing herself. Fortunately for Qiao Hongye, she was still terrified from her latest encounter with Cao Xing, and her frightened expression was still etched on her face, helping her build her lie to seem more authentic.

Facing Qiao Hongye's theatrics, Su Chu was stupefied.

She had never seen a woman with such thick skin like hers; it was so thick that the world's thickest wall did not give justice to how thick her skin was. Selfish with no regard for others, and her expressions changed faster than flipping the pages of a book.

Gan Jinchen too could only concede defeat and subconsciously pulled his Biao-mei behind him. It would be better to stay further away from this type of girl, what if her 'selfish disease' was contagious?

But wasn't the situation quite bad with the way things were? It's not like Qiao Hongye personally went up to steal. Having found these kinds of excuses for herself right now, later on, wouldn't the police not treat her as an accomplice? At this rate, wouldn't she be able to get off scot-free? Too cunning!

Not long after, they saw Jing Yunzhao heading towards them with someone from the Property Management, and the police followed behind them.

Only when he saw them did Gan Jinchen relax. He dragged Qiao Hongye over.

The moment Cao Xing saw Qiao Hongye standing together with the rest of them, he started to go berserk, "You s.l.u.t! Were you the one who sold me out?!"

Qiao Hongye, this cheap s.l.u.t! She must have planned everything that just happened with the purpose to lure him out and throw him in prison!

Qiao Hongye's head shrunk back. Even if she didn't do it, right now she could only improvise with the situation, "Mr. Police Officer, I know him. He's the hooligan that often loiters in front of our school entrance. He saw me just as he was going in and even said that if I reported him to the police, he would kill me. I was scared, so I didn't dare to look for the police, but I was still worried that he would do something bad, so I hid and secretly watched from afar…"
