“Sisi, what’s wrong with you? Don’t tell me you’re embarrassed to acknowledge me because you’ve done something wrong to Lili?” Yang Yueyue said gently and considerately, but her words attracted the attention of several elders. They looked at Qiao Sisi and then at Zhang Li.

Zhang Li put on a sad expression, as if she had been wronged and suffering in silence. Instantly, everyone started to speculate.

Qiao Sisi was so angry that she wanted to scratch her face. However, Zhang Zeyi grabbed her hand tightly and said softly, “Calm down, don’t be rash.”

Yes, impulse is a devil.

Qiao Sisi took a deep breath and decided to deal with the situation by staying calm and seeing how the other party would react. “I’m sorry, I really can’t remember who you are and who this person is.”

Yang Yueyue was not anxious at all. “Aren’t you Qiao Sisi? We graduated from the same Jewelry Design program at University Z. I’m Yang Yueyue from Class One and you were from Class Two, remember?”

Qiao Sisi looked enlightened and said quickly, “Oh, I’m sorry. You’re much prettier than before. I really didn’t recognize you.”

Being praised for being pretty in public was naturally a happy thing. However, before she could feel happy, she heard Qiao Sisi say, “Your nose is so high. Did you go to Korea?”

Qiao Sisi was indirectly saying that she had undergone plastic surgery.

Although this was a fact nowadays, even women who had undergone plastic surgery till they became unrecognizable wished that others would say that they were naturally beautiful.

Yang Yueyue was depressed.?Qiao Sisi is as annoying as ever,?she thought.

“Hahaha, Sisi, you’re so funny. Why did you come with my cousin? Where’s your sugar daddy? Why don’t I see him?”

She was implying that Qiao Sisi was a kept woman!

......

Before Qiao Sisi could say anything, she sensed the strange gazes from the people around her. Their discussion was definitely not something pleasant to hear.

Just as she was about to refute, Zhang Zeyi grabbed Qiao Sisi again and held her waist. He smiled lightly and said, “Yueyue, what nonsense are you talking about? This is your future cousin-in-law.”

His words caused an uproar. She was not just a girlfriend. She was her future cousin-in-law. This meant that they were getting married, not just fooling around.

Instantly, everyone became more interested in what was to come.

Yang Yueyue looked as if she had seen a ghost and cried out in surprise, “Cousin, what are you talking about? Although Qiao Sisi is my classmate, I can’t go against my conscience to let you be with such a person. Do you know that she actually seduced Lili’s boyfriend? She is just a mistress.”

Qiao Sisi looked at Zeng Qing, who was walking over, and met his evasive gaze. She sneered and said, “Yang Yueyue, I have not seen you for so many years, and you still haven’t changed your habit of spreading rumors? You said I’m a mistress. Do you have evidence?”

“Lili, tell them!” Yang Yueyue pushed Zhang Li to the front and forced her to explain.

Zhang Li looked at Qiao Sisi and met her parents’ probing eyes. She immediately said, “Ms. Qiao, although you’re Yueyue’s classmate, you really did something inappropriate. Zeng Qing is my boyfriend. Please don’t harass him anymore and don’t destroy our relationship, alright?”

Qiao Sisi sneered and looked at Zeng Qing. “Zeng Qing, what do you have to say?”

Zeng Qing met the gaze of the Zhang parents and Zhang Li’s warning look. He did not hesitate to go forward and hug Zhang Li. He distorted the truth and said, “Qiao Sisi, although we were university classmates, I have always told you over the years that I don’t like you. Now that I have a girlfriend, please don’t pester me anymore, alright? Your actions have already caused me a lot of trouble. If you continue, I can only call the police and use legal means to protect my rights.”

Damn… Damn.?This was the kind of boyfriend she had even though she had supported him financially.

She had worked so hard to help support his PhD education. He had yet to obtain his doctoral degree and he now turned around and abandoned his girlfriend.

Qiao Sisi broke free from Zhang Zeyi’s grip and took a step forward. “Zeng Qing, this being the case, for my reputation’s sake, I will not let you frame me.”

“Everyone, you must be very curious as to whether I’d become his mistress, harassing and seducing him. I can tell you very honestly that I didn’t! As to why Ms. Zhang thinks that I harassed and seduced him, I would like to ask if Ms. Zhang has any evidence to prove that I harassed her boyfriend?”

Zhang Li paused for a moment before saying, “I saw you calling him and sending him some cryptic text messages.”

Qiao Sisi saw the light. She nodded. “What text did you say I sent him? I don’t have any impression of it. But you said that I called him. That’s right. I admit that I called him, but it wasn’t to harass him. It was to ask him to repay his debt.”

“Debt?”

It caused a huge commotion. Everyone was surprised and looked at Zeng Qing. Zeng Qing quickly said, “What nonsense are you talking about? Qiao Sisi, when did I owe you money?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“You don’t owe me money?” Qiao Sisi sneered. “Zeng Qing, a human being must behave with integrity. Don’t be an ugly character. We’ve known each other for five years. In these five years, you’ve borrowed a total of 200 thousand yuan from me. I have a bank record for every transfer of this money. You said that I seduced you as a mistress. Now, let everybody judge between right and wrong. Which mistress in this world would fork out money to support a man? If you say that I spent money to support a toy boy, perhaps it’s easier for people to believe you. Don’t you think so!”

“That’s right. If taking a woman’s money is not borrowing money, then isn’t it equivalent to being a toy boy?”

“Maybe it’s a scam. Didn’t she say that she called him to repay his debts?”

“That’s right. Maybe they’re in a relationship?”

Everyone was talking among themselves. Zeng Qing and Zhang Li’s expressions were ugly to the extreme. Zhang Li said angrily, “Nonsense, Zeng Qing is not such a person. Why would he borrow money from you? His family background is not bad! You’re framing him!”

Qiao Sisi smiled. She picked up her phone and clicked on the bank transfer record. “Everyone, take a good look. This is only one of the transfers. But isn’t the recipient Zeng Qing? If you don’t believe me, we can get the police to investigate and see if the recipient is Zeng Qing himself.”

“Even if it’s Zeng Qing, that doesn’t mean anything. Who knows if you were the one who returned the money to him!” Yang Yueyue immediately retaliated, seeing that everyone was convinced by Qiao Sisi.

“Right, that’s because you returned the money to me!” Zeng Qing quickly added.

“Borrow money?” Before Qiao Sisi could continue, Zheng Zeyi walked over and interrupted them. “How much money does Sisi owe you? Do you have a loan receipt?”

“This… she owes me two hundred thousand dollars, and I didn’t bring the loan receipt with me. I…”

“Alright, Sisi, transfer another 10 thousand yuan to me. I need to go overseas this time, and I don’t have enough money on hand. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have asked you. Do me a favor and I’ll immediately pay you back as soon as I receive my allowance.” Before Zeng Qing could finish speaking, Qiao Sisi had started playing a voice recording. The voice was Zeng Qing’s.
