Chapter 168: Chapter 167 Denial
Song Qiuqiu knew this was the deepest wound in Qi Yue’s heart, even though she never spoke of it, she had never forgotten.
But she was really too angry! She couldn’t hold back!
“I’m sorry, Yue Bao… I didn’t want to say so much! But they were too infuriating!”
Qi Yue grabbed the emotionally explosive Song Qiuqiu, pinched her hand, and soothed her emotions.
Although she had long stopped wanting to bring up the past, how could she blame Qiuqiu when every word and sentence she uttered was to defend her?
Having heard this, Qi Zhen, who had remained composed until now, suddenly changed her expression, as if stepping on her sore spot, she looked at Song Qiuqiu with a pale face and said coldly, “Song Qiuqiu! Have you got it all wrong? I won fair and square in that competition. What do you mean by Qi Yue letting me win? Didn’t Qi Yue tell you? It was I who bet with Qi Yue, whoever lost that match would never do shooting again. Qi Yue left the National Team because she lost to me! That has nothing to do with me!”
...
Song Qiuqiu’s face was full of disbelief as she let out a cold laugh, “Qi Zhen, how can you have the nerve to say that! Didn’t you know how much Qi Yue was better than you at the time? Wasn’t it just because you were always crying to your parents about the pressure and depression, even threatening suicide, and you forced Qi Yue to make the bet. Qi Yue, out of fear you might do something rash if you lost, had no choice but to let you win!”
Qi Zhen’s face turned grim: “For me? It was clearly Qi Yue’s own lack of mental strength, her abnormal performance, and her withdrawal from the competition midway. Everyone saw it, everyone can testify.
Besides, that bet was just a rash remark I made when I was young. I said afterwards that I didn’t mean to force her to stop shooting. If she wanted to come back to shooting, she could have done so. Is it my fault she didn’t dare to compete again, and now she’s pushing the blame onto me?”
Qi Zhen looked at Qi Yue with scorn.
Song Qiuqiu was utterly shocked by Qi Zhen’s words, “Damn it! Who’s the one with the psychological issues? You make it sound so nice, continue shooting? What if you start crying and threatening suicide again? Would Qi Yue have to give up once more?
Every time something happens to you, whenever you have psychological issues, should Yue Bao always carry the blame, should she be persuaded and blamed by your biased parents for a lifetime? No matter how nicely you put it, how is this different from forcing her to give up…”

Qi Wanli and Yu Shuhua never expected Song Qiuqiu and Qi Yue’s relationship to be so good, to know so much, and to bring up the issue directly in front of President Chen and his family, making their faces extremely ugly.
Qi Zhen looked towards her parents, her eyes reddening as she spoke, “Dad, Mom, I really never meant to force Qi Yue out of shooting… I was just young and foolish back then, upset that after she came back, she took away your care and attention! My mental strength isn’t that bad, not so bad that I can’t compete with her on the same field!”
Yu Shuhua lovingly touched her daughter’s head, “Mom and Dad understand, Yueyue also misunderstood…”
President Chen and Lady Chen also joined in the consolation, “Yeah, it’s all a misunderstanding, you shouldn’t be too sad. Looking at Zhenzhen’s performance today, she’s really amazing. I believe she’s not that kind of person. It’s just a little girl wanting her parents’ attention. It was all hers before, and suddenly there’s a sister sharing the attention, it’s inevitable to feel uncomfortable…”
