Chapter 60: Accidental Mishap
In the living room, the two women were screaming and cursing like angry tigresses. They grabbed each other's hair, and waved their sharp nails to scratch each other's face and arms, wanting to tear each other into pieces.
Luo Rui didn’t dodge in time, and ended up being scratched by He Ru, leaving a long scratch on her face. Blood trickled down her cheek.
The girl exclaimed, covering her face and taking two steps back.
When Xie Chengzhi saw his girlfriend's wretched appearance, he quickly stepped forward to protect her in his arms. He asked her with concern, "Are you okay?"
Luo Rui nodded to indicate that she was fine. "Chengzhi, pull them apart immediately."
Xie Chengzhi then looked over.
The two girls were locked in a scuffle, clawing at each other, and it was difficult to tell who the winner was. The whole living room echoed with their screams and cries of pain.
It seemed impossible to pull the two apart with bare hands.
Xie Chengzhi only hesitated for a moment, then decisively stamped his foot on the coffee table. The glass tabletop shattered, and glass shards scattered all over the floor.
The loud noise finally brought the two people who had lost their minds back to their senses. As if the pause button was pressed, the two girls stopped and looked at the angry Xie Chengzhi blankly.
Xie Chengzhi looked at the two of them coldly, and asked in a deep voice, "Have you had enough?"
Thinking of her current situation, He Ru clenched her back teeth, and disentangled herself. She covered the wound on her face and stepped aside.
She and Zhou Jian got into a fight, and that woman who seemed to have an unusual status was involved. Luo Rui, who already disliked her, would definitely give her a hard time –– anyway, they had already fallen out, so there was no need to continue to tolerate grievances.
With that realization, the woman’s expression turned cold and she chuckled. "We've had enough –– are you disappointed that you couldn't poison and kill me?"
Luo Rui stepped forward to help Zhou Jian up, and looked at He Ru after hearing her words. Her question was a bit misleading. "You deliberately swapped that glass of water with Sister Youzi’s, right, He Ru?"
"Do you think I’m as evil as you guys?" He Ru wasn’t stupid. Of course she wouldn’t admit that she swapped the glasses. "Zhou Jian was stupid and put the two glasses of water in the wrong place –– the glass of water she gave me was uncontaminated."
In other words, Zhou Jian served the untreated water to Youzi.
"You're talking nonsense!" Youzi was Xue Weixin's precious girlfriend. Whoever harmed her would die. Zhou Jian didn’t dare to bear the blame for poisoning her. "I didn't make a mistake with the glasses of water! You swapped them on purpose!"
"Firstly, there’s no grudge between that woman and me. Why would I harm her?" Compared to Zhou Jian's agitation, He Ru was calm. "Secondly, I didn't know you would poison that glass of water, so there was no need for me to swap them."
The girl defended herself calmly, shirking the responsibility –– it was true that she didn't know Zhou Jian would poison the glass of water. Out of vigilance and vaguely aware of that woman’s unusual status, she swapped their glasses of water while the woman wasn't paying attention.
Now, it could only be said that Zhou Jian shot herself in the foot.
"Qiaoqiao." After hearing enough of the two women's accusations of each other, Xue Weixin stood up with Youzi in his arms. Without looking at the two of them, he ordered in a cold voice, "Lock them both up and wait until I come back to deal with them." After saying that, he stood up and left.
Qiaoqiao didn't ask him where he was going. She responded loudly, "I got it!"
After seeing Xue Weixin out, Qiaoqiao turned back and glared at the two disheveled people.
She raised her hand, and several suspended sharp blades appeared out of thin air in the living room, with their tips pointed at the two of them.
"You two, go into the room over there." Qiaoqiao pointed to a room. "Don't try to run away, or I’ll kill you!"
It was all the fault of these two women. They were despicable and ended up implicating others.
If something happened to Sister Youzi, Captain Xue would probably die with her, and their entire team would be doomed.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Qiaoqiao pulled a long face and kicked He Ru who was close to her. "Get in! Hurry!"
He Ru staggered two steps, snorted, and walked into the designated room first –– the water was poured by Zhou Jian, and Zhou Jian had the intention to harm others first. If she couldn't escape responsibility, Zhou Jian couldn't escape either.
The sharp knife was pressed against her face, and Qiaoqiao, who had always been gentle to others, looked fierce as if she wanted to kill someone. Zhou Jian completely panicked.
She held Luo Rui's hand tightly and said in a voice choked with sobs. "Ruirui, please help me. I didn't mean it. It was He Ru who framed me..."
"Go in! Don't talk to others!" Qiaoqiao shoved Zhou Jian fiercely. The two knives pointed at her edged in closer.
Zhou Jian still held Luo Rui's hand. "Ruirui..."
Luo Rui shook her head gently and comforted her. "Listen to Qiaoqiao. Don't be afraid."
Qiaoqiao was the bodyguard arranged by Xue Weixin for Youzi. She was a superhuman with third-level metal-type abilities, and her combat power was off the charts. In this situation, even if she and Xie Chengzhi teamed up, they might not be Qiaoqiao's match.
Moreover, Qiaoqiao wasn’t the only one who was powerful in Xue Weixin's team. There was no need for her to fall out with Xue Weixin just because of the jealousy between two women.
After Qiaoqiao locked the door, Luo Rui apologized to Qiaoqiao solemnly. "It's my fault. I shouldn't have brought He Ru back and caused Sister Youzi to be harmed..."
"It's not your fault." Qiaoqiao puffed up her cheeks and said angrily, "It's those two women's fault. If Sister Youzi dies, Captain Xue will definitely cut them into pieces! Humph!"
When Luo Rui saw Qiaoqiao's reaction, she knew Qiaoqiao didn't blame her. Luo Rui secretly heaved a sigh of relief and asked, "Qiaoqiao, do you know where Weixin took Sister Youzi to?"
"He must’ve gone to find Si..." Qiaoqiao stopped talking abruptly after she almost said that name.
"Huh? Who did he go to?"
"I'm not sure either." Qiaoqiao said vaguely, "I think he used to be Captain Xue's friend. Sister Youzi's illness was treated by that friend previously."
"Then this time..."
"Captain Xue said that his friend is capable. I hope everything goes well." Qiaoqiao didn't want to talk about this topic anymore. "Now, I can only pray that Sister Youzi is okay. Otherwise..."
Zhou Jian and He Ru would both have to die.
……
The Shen family's party was scheduled for seven o'clock in the evening.
The sky after the heavy snowfall stopped was deep blue, like the finest silk. The full moon was bright and beautiful, blending with the color of snow.
With her petite face huddled in her scarf, Jiang Ran let out a breath of white mist. The winter was really long. She wondered if the weather would get warmer after the heavy snowfall.
She really wanted spring to arrive soon.
The girl retracted her gaze from the sky.
However, "click" and "clack" sounds would be made when stepping on such thick snow. Jiang Ran hopped forward, wishing she could sing a song in the snow.
Si Xu had one hand in his pocket and held the girl's hand with the other to prevent her from accidentally slipping on the ice.
Along the way, they passed by several patrolling teams, attracting their constant glances.
—— Was this the legendary Miss Shen who climbed onto Professor Si's balcony? Professor Si hadn’t been outside for ages, yet she actually managed to take him out for a walk in the snow. How amazing! They were impressed!
