Chapter 64: A Scum’s Double Standards, Qiao An’s Punishment
“Why are you here?” Qiao An asked curiously.
Li Xiaoran nodded behind her. Qiao An turned around and realized that Third Madam was walking over with a group of people.
Third Madam walked up to Qiao An with a fierce expression and growled, “Follow me in.”
Her attitude was incomparably arrogant.
Qiao An said lazily, “I’m sorry, I’m not free.”
Third Madam glared at her. “Qiao An, if anything happens to Ze’en, do you think I’ll let you off?”
Qiao An laughed speechlessly. “Every injustice has its perpetrator. Who was the one who defiled Li Ze’en? Go find him. Why are you looking for me?”
When Third Madam heard the word “defiled”, she immediately felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
“Don’t curse my daughter…” She was furious. However, in the next second, Li Zecheng walked out with the disheveled Li Ze’en.
Third Madam was instantly petrified.
“Ze’en…” She could not believe that her precious daughter would encounter such a calamity.
Third Madam’s eyes rolled back and she fainted.
She had fallen towards Qiao An. If Qiao An had supported her, she wouldn’t have fallen to the ground.
However, Qiao An was fast and agile. Third Madam fell to the ground.
Her head hit the ground, and she fainted.
Li Zecheng glared at Qiao An and condemned her with a fierce gaze for not taking good care of his mother.
Qiao An ignored his condemnation and even said, “Why are you looking at me? I’m afraid you’ll scam me.”
Li Zecheng was trembling with anger. “Qiao An, I will definitely settle this score with you.” With that, Li Zecheng instructed the bodyguard, “Take her away.”
The bodyguard stepped forward and was about to grab hold of Qiao An when Li Xiaoran pulled Qiao An behind him. Then, he smiled casually and said, “Nephew, you don’t care if your mother fainted. Qiao An has good hands and feet. She can walk on her own.”
Li Zecheng glared at Li Xiaoran. “Uncle, don’t forget your identity. You came here to save people. My mother fainted. Aren’t you going to take a look at her?”
Li Xiaoran frowned. Li Zecheng’s arrogance made him very unhappy.
“Li Zecheng, if you want me to save someone, humble yourself.” Li Xiaoran looked at Li Zecheng. For some reason, his foxy eyes that were half-smile looked especially terrifying at this moment.
“I’m sorry,” Li Zecheng said angrily.
Only then did Li Xiaoran squat down and perform emergency treatment on the Third Madam. She quickly recovered.
The group returned to the Li family villa and Qiao An was forced home by Li Zecheng.
Third Madam complained angrily to Old Master, “Dad, it was Qiao An. Qiao An didn’t save Ze’en when she saw that she was in trouble.That’s why Ze’en was violated. She was clearly at the scene when it happened, but she was too heartless and didn’t save my Ze’en.
The old man had always doted on Ze’en. When he saw Ze’en curled up at the side in a daze, he was filled with sorrow.
He looked at Qiao An and said in a low and cold voice, “Qiao An, she’s your sister-in-law. How can you leave her in the lurch?”
Under the old man’s reprimand, the other uncles and aunties also began to attack.
“That’s right. How ruthless must he be to do such a thing?”
“No matter what, she’s still your sister-in-law. Isn’t it too mean to be so heartless to her?”
Qiao An stood quietly at the side and watched them perform in a sanctimonious manner. It was a pity that this family didn’t become actors.
Seeing that there was someone helping, Li Zecheng abandoned Qiao An even more.
“Qiao An, you apologize to Ze’en,” he snarled.
Qiao An said, “Why should I apologize? I didn’t do anything wrong.”
Li Zecheng said, “Didn’t you hear what Uncle and Aunt said about you? As Ze’en’s sister-in-law, you watched coldly as she was taken away. You still say that you didn’t do anything wrong?” Li Zecheng said indignantly.
Qiao An looked at Li Zecheng and questioned angrily, “Compared to that day when you threw me to the kidnappers and turned a deaf ear to my pleas for help… Compared to your heartlessness, I’m simply too benevolent to Li Ze’en.”
Li Zecheng did not expect her to bring up the past. He straightened his neck and roared, “That matter is in the past.”
Qiao An roared, “With you, it’s in the past. With me, it’s never over.”
Li Zecheng said, “I’m sorry. I’m sorry. What else do you want?”
Jo Ann snickered. “Sorry. I apologized to Ze’en, too.”
Li Zecheng was speechless.
Qiao An raised her head proudly and scanned the crowd with a sharp gaze. Then, she asked, “Uncles, do you also think that your nephew is more heartless and vicious than me?”
Everyone was rendered speechless by Qiao An.
Li Zecheng was so ashamed that he could not raise his head.
However, the unreasonable Third Madam was a weirdo who regarded propriety and integrity as nothing. She pointed at Qiao An’s nose and scolded, “Qiao An, my Zecheng is simply unlucky to have married a jinx like you.”
Qiao An replied, “It takes one to know one.”
Third Madam was furious.
Then, she took out her specialty and sat on the ground to cry.
“Heavens, why is my life so terrible?”
“He married a wife and worshiped her like an ancestor every day, but she only wants my son’s money and my daughter’s life. Dad, we can’t afford such a wife!”
… .
The old man fell into deep thought.
It was obvious that Third Madam’s words had worked. When Third Madam met Qiao An’s gaze, Qiao An could sense the smugness in her eyes.
Qiao An smiled disdainfully and decided to start on the path of making them eat their words.
She walked up to the old man and started to clear her name. “Grandpa, I didn’t want to say this at first, but since my husband and mother-in-law are unrepentant and even maliciously slander me, I have to prove my innocence.”
She pointed at Li Zecheng and said, “Actually, I’m not the one who didn’t help. It was him.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room revealed shocked and disbelief.
In the corner, Li Ze’en looked at her brother in a daze.
Li Zecheng saw that the situation was bad and flew into a rage out of humiliation. “Shut up, you’re talking nonsense.”
Qiao An said coldly, “I clearly asked you for help last night. I asked you to rush to the Blazing Sun Bar. You were the one who delayed the rescue. What right do you have to blame it on me?”
The old man could tell that something was wrong. He glared at Li Zecheng. “Zecheng, what exactly is going on?”
Li Zecheng lowered his head in frustration. “Grandpa, I didn’t see the message.” It was obvious that he lacked confidence.
