46 Taking Them Down
Zhao Chuchu had a slight smile on her face.
Zhao Baogen’s face, on the other hand, was flushed red.
Even if he refused to write it himself, the other seven or eight people here had all written it, which meant that he wouldn’t be able to get away with it either!
Zhao Chuchu had asked the village chief to draw up a confession in quadruplicate, according to what she said. Besides Zhao Chuchu, the Zhao clan and the village chief, even that man, each had a copy in their possession.
After receiving the confession, Zhao Chuchu blew a little on the fingerprints, which were still not dried completely.
She surveyed everyone from the Zhao clan. “Remember, this is the last chance I will give you. If there is a next time, don’t blame me for being ruthless and send all of you to prison.”
“Of course, if you think you can take away my copy of the confession and everything will be fine, then you are sadly mistaken; unless you really think you have the ability to kill us all. Behave from now on, and you will never have anything to worry about as long as you live. ”
“By the way, I don’t think we’ve met. I don’t know your name,” Zhao Chuchu said as she looked at the man.
Finally, the man thought to himself. Now she had some time to pay attention to him!
“My name is Qiao Heting.”
“Your last name is Qiao. Are you related to Magistrate Qiao?”
“He’s my uncle.”
As soon as he said that, the people from the Zhao clan were scared to death.
“Certainly, you are joking.”
Zhao Chuchu pretended not to believe him, but she thought that this man might not be just a nephew. After all, Magistrate Qiao was not as handsome as the man in front of her.
Indeed, Qiao Heting’s look was quite outstanding. Although he was not as good-looking as Xie Heng, he was definitely a handsome dude as far as most men were concerned.
“If you don’t believe me, just follow me to my uncle’s. You can see for yourself if I’m telling the truth or not.” Qiao Heting said with a smile, and his eyes were full of teasing. “Maybe it’s better just to give these confessions back to them and send them to the county office instead.”
If Zhao Baogen had some hope of getting out of this before, at this moment, his face was as pale as a piece of paper.
It was clear that Qiao Heting was not someone to be trifled with, not to mention he had a copy of the confession in his possession. It was very obvious that he meant to help Zhao Chuchu. If they really get to the county office, there would absolutely be no way that he would ever get out of this mess!
“Zhao Chuchu, I have given you what you asked for. Are you going back on your words?”
“What do you think?”
“You…”
At this moment, as much as Zhao Baogen was pissed off, he dared not say anything.
Qiao Heting put away the confessions and said, “Since the little lady said to let you go, then I will keep these confessions for the time being. If something happens to the little lady, the confessions will make their way to the county office.”
“Sir, we will do what we promised. Please keep the confessions safe.”
“If today’s incident happens again, I swear we will all be struck by lightning.”
“We’ll keep an eye on Zhao Baogen, so that he won’t make any more trouble for Chuchu.”
…
The Zhao clan reassured him quickly, for fear that Qiao Heting would really hand over the confessions.
“I hope you will all remember the promises you made today. Otherwise, these confessions will be your undoing. If you don’t do evil things in front of me, I can overlook everything else you guys are doing!” Zhao Chuchu warned them coldly.
“Definitely, definitely.”
Seeing that the matter was settled, the village chief asked some people to go to Lengshui Village to arrange for their return.
Zhao Chuchu thanked the village chief and began making her way back to the village.
“Mr. Qiao, if you have anything you want to say, just say it. Acting sneaky is not befitting of a gentleman like yourself.” Halfway through her trip back, Zhao Chuchu couldn’t help but stop and turn around.
Qiao Heting quickly showed himself and looked at Zhao Chuchu inquiringly. “I didn’t expect that a little lady like you would be able to take them down like that.”
Zhao Chuchu raised an eyebrow. “I feel like it. Why, is there a problem?”
“Then why were you infected with the plague?”
“It’s not the plague. It’s just me overacting!”
Zhao Chuchu made something up quickly.
Qiao Heting chuckled.”Who did you learn this from?”
Zhao Chuchu looked at him from the corner of her eyes and asked him instead. “Have you ever slept with a woman?”
