Xia Ming was too small, so Xia Chuyi didn’t let her come along and had to pick up Uncle Quan himself, patting him and saying, "Xiao Kong, good job, I’ll definitely give you an extra meal when we get back."
Before Xia Chuyi could move, Jiang Shuqin had already stepped forward and directly opened the purse, revealing "two banknotes, one Mawu, one ten, and one tractor" inside, along with the remaining tractor in the wallet, making up the exact thirty yuan.
"Chi Yue, what do you have to say?" Jiang Shuqin threw the purse on Chi Yue as she confronted her.
Chi Yue’s tightly clenched fists trembled slightly, but she insisted, "This is pocket money I had saved separately, not the money that was lost at all!"
A complete case of a dead duck’s stubbornness.
Xia Chuyi suddenly let out a light chuckle and said, "So, are you suggesting that Xiao Kong and I conspired to find your pocket money and slander you?"
"You!" Chi Yue was asked into an utter embarrassment.
To have trained the dog so painstakingly, just to slander someone... Only an unbelievably foolish person would believe that.
Chi Yue still refused to admit defeat and said, "In any case, if I say it’s not it, then it’s not. Xia Chuyi, are your baseless claims alone supposed to convince everyone?"
Xia Chuyi laughed and said, "Well said, baseless claims—weren’t your accusations that I ’took’ your money just as baseless?"
Chi Yue was at a loss for words.
Everyone present was silent.
The situation had become crystal clear... Chi Yue had falsely accused Xia Chuyi before.
Well, everyone had already had a feeling about it but didn’t feel it was their place to say; now, the truth was blatantly laid before their eyes.
Chi Yue bit her lip desperately, "Anyhow, this isn’t the money from before."
Even now, she was stubborn.
Xia Chuyi didn’t want to entangle with her anymore and simply said, "Shuqin, let’s report this to the police."
Hearing this, Chi Yue’s expression dramatically changed, "Wait a moment!"
Xia Chuyi looked at her.
Chi Yue clenched her fists and said, "Maybe... I remembered it wrong."
Finally, the truth was out.
The friends from Room 201 breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though they might not have believed Chi Yue’s words, with her temper, she would have made sure the story spread everywhere, framing Xia Chuyi.
Because, clearly, everything Chi Yue had done had one purpose—to completely ruin Xia Chuyi and disqualify her from being with Ou Cong.
The friends from Room 201 glared at Chi Yue with eyes full of anger.
Chi Yue couldn’t bear being looked at like that, and said defensively, "So I remembered the money wrong, is that not allowed?"
"The money has been found, I’ll just give you my meal money to settle this!"
With one sentence, she attempted to gloss over everything that had happened.
The people from Room 201 couldn’t stand it anymore and said, "Chi Yue, don’t you think you should apologize?"
Chi Yue said, "Apologize for what? My carved box was bitten by her damn dog..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Uncle Quan "flew" out of Xia Chuyi’s arms—yes, Uncle Quan’s movement out of Xia Chuyi’s arms looked just like flying.
Uncle Quan "flew" onto Chi Yue, bared his sharp fangs, and started biting her arm chaotically.
"Ah ah ah..." Chi Yue screamed in fright, crying with tears and snot dripping together.
"Xiao Kong!" Xia Chuyi was also startled and quickly called Xiao Kong back.
Would Uncle Quan be causing them a fatality, by any chance?
On the other hand, as soon as Xiao Kong moved away, Chi Yue collapsed softly onto the ground.
