Chapter 59
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Qiuhe, who was standing to the side, changed her expression immediately, like a frightened little rabbit. Her eyes reddened, and tears welled up in her eyes, threatening to fall. She pointed at them and shouted, "Ah? Xu Zizhen, Xi Zining, I never thought you were this kind of people!"
Xu Zizhen wasn't about to tolerate her. "There are many things you can't imagine. We're the victims."
"If you've done something wrong, just admit it openly. Why try to argue?" Bai Qiuhe said indignantly.
"Why should we admit to something we didn't do!" Xi Zining's voice was cold. "Evidence? She has it, and so do we. Our evidence has even been notarized by a lawyer."
[Goodness, you really are something, Xi Zining. But there's solid evidence right here: the IP address that posted the message.] Song Shiwei was excitedly watching the drama unfold.
Xi Zining laughed. She hadn't expected to have such irrefutable evidence. This would surely destroy Bai Qiuhe.
A note from the author:
The company is having an inspection tomorrow, so updates will be late.
Chapter 59
◎What's wrong with spending your whole life in prison? It's practically a guaranteed job.◎
"Impossible!" Bai Qiuhe immediately retorted.
It's been over ten years, how could Xi Zining possibly still have evidence? She's definitely trying to frame herself, and she can't fall for it.
She calmed herself down slightly, then decided to hold back and observe first to see what evidence was available.
The online debate is raging right now, and Xu Zizhen and Xi Zining both have a considerable number of haters.
In addition, there were righteous bystanders who didn't remember to get involved in this kind of thing, so the entire comment section became a mess.
{Can this really be true? This is way too outrageous!}
{More than a decade has passed, and it just so happens that it was discovered at this very moment? I have a feeling this is a conspiracy.}
{I glanced at the IP address posted by the person who posted this, and it's definitely in Qingyuan Town. Didn't the mother in the video say they've always lived in Ancheng and never moved? Because her daughter is buried in Ancheng, she wants to stay Ancheng to protect her daughter.}
{ Ancheng and Qingyuan Town are practically worlds apart, right? Even if this IP address were to migrate, it couldn't possibly be that far. I immediately started to doubt the authenticity of this rumor.}
{Since it's a real-name report, they probably have no other choice. Let's stop focusing on the IP address, okay?}
{What you said upstairs makes some sense, but not entirely. I now seriously doubt that this is true, but the post was likely posted by someone else to ride this wave of attention.}
Netizens, like modern-day Holmes, quickly discovered the issue with the post's IP address. This time, however, they didn't unanimously launch a barrage of insults as they had done before.
This time they've learned their lesson! Last time, they were used as pawns, subjected to unanimous condemnation, and then slapped in the face repeatedly, just like those wicked women in TV dramas.
This time, they absolutely won't be malicious NPCs! They'll be Holmes, helping the victim slap the villains in the face!
Xi Zining sneered, "Why not? I still have screenshots in my cloud drive of our chat history: how I was swayed by a guy online, then dumped, and finally met Xu Zizhen. We were both so excited about confessing our feelings for each other on social media. These are all our beautiful memories, so I kept them."
Bai Qiuhe:???
Are you crazy? Xi Zining still has chat logs from over ten years ago?
Is she really just a hopeless romantic?
"What do you mean by being turned gay? And why are you looking at me like that? I was just a child more than ten years ago. I didn't know you at all. Don't talk nonsense, or I'll sue you." Although Bai Qiuhe was panicking inside, her Yangyang expression turned into anxiety, and her voice trembled slightly.
"I wasn't talking about you. Besides, you said you're twenty and still a child. Is it a family tradition for children not to grow up? You little brat." Xi Zining retorted without any politeness.
Bai Qiuhe was completely powerless to fight back, and could only keep opening her mouth and breathing in the fresh air.
Xi Zining silently fiddled with her phone, glanced at Bai Qiuhe, and then said unhurriedly, "The IP address of today's post is quite interesting. Qingyuan Town is right here, not too far away. Pretty good, don't you think?"
Bai Qiuhe's expression became even more flustered, and she even tried to change the subject, but Xu Zizhen and Xi Zining did not fall for her trick.
"How about we try to pinpoint exactly where this place is? That way we can find the mother and confront her right there, to see how her daughter tricked us so badly back then," Xu Zizhen immediately chimed in, glancing subtly at Bai Qiuhe.
[Wow! These two sisters suddenly became incredibly intelligent, even thinking about evidence. The NPCs in domineering CEO novels have finally developed brains.] Song Shiwei quietly commented to the group of onlookers.
[Unexpectedly, Xi Zining's love-struck behavior could actually save them.]
Xi Zining tugged at the corner of her mouth, "Stop scolding me, stop scolding me, I admit I'm love-struck."
If they hadn't wanted to preserve the beautiful memories they shared with Xu Zizhen, they would truly be unable to defend themselves today.
She genuinely couldn't understand why Xu Zizhen had rejected her, a potential catch, even though she had long harbored deep love for Xu Zizhen.
She saved all of these videos and chat screenshots, even the screenshots of their crazy declarations of love for each other. Now, whenever Xu Zizhen scolds her, she takes them out to relive the moment and tries to convince herself to forgive Xu Zizhen.
Xu Zizhen must have loved her, otherwise what would all their madness mean?!
