Chapter 73 -73: Evidence in the Mobile Phone_1
Xiaren raised her eyebrows. No wonder Liu Qiang suddenly made that pompous statement. He had timed it to coincide with the arrival of the reporters, intending to frame her in front of the media!
What a venomous scheme! Now, even if she were to jump in the Yellow River, she would not be able to cleanse herself!
At this point, the police had also arrived at the hospital. They pushed their way through a large crowd of frenzied and excited reporters and stood stern-faced in front of Qiao Xiaren.
“Is this Miss Qiao? Someone has filed a report claiming that you deliberately caused harm. Please come with us to the station to investigate the matter.”
The words of the police made the reporters even more excited. The microphones in front of Qiao Xiaren were like a mountain, and all she could hear were the cacophonous voices of the reporters.
“Miss Qiao, is what the policeman and Mr. Liu said, true?”
...
“Miss Qiao, can you tell us why you attacked Miss Zhou Siyu?”
As a model who had just collaborated with the great Chu Yifei, this was certainly explosive news that would attract many viewers!
Looking at Liu Qiang’s hypocritical and sinister face, Qiao Xiaren was not the kind to swallow her anger. She brushed back a few loose strands of hair from her forehead.
“Since everyone wants to understand what happened, I’m happy to satisfy your curiosity. Regarding my involvement with Miss Zhou, I would like to clarify things here, to prevent certain people with ulterior motives from playing the innocent after doing something malicious!”
Qiao Xiaren’s words carried a deeper meaning, directed unmistakably at Zhou Siyu and Liu Qiang!
Liu Qiang was immediately flustered, “Don’t talk nonsense here. It’s crystal clear that you maliciously splashed hot pot soup on Siyu’s face! Such vicious intentions, it’s outrageous!”

“I splashed her?” Qiao Xiaren repeated, seemingly amused, “What about her is worth my bother, is she more beautiful than I am?”
Xiaren looked up and smiled. With her back straight, her eyes, pure and clear like a budding sprout.
Looking at the beautiful goddess in front of them, the reporters instinctively knew the answer: how could she be more beautiful than you?
“She’s not as attractive as me, both Xiaren and Chu Yifei prefer me. So, what is there for me to be jealous of or to destroy her appearance? Usually, only those who feel inferior are jealous of those who are superior to them. Unfortunately, I was born superior.”
Holy crap!
She’s pretty confident! Yet such grace didn’t seem offensive at all. Instead, it seemed perfectly natural.
Seeing how the situation was being turned around by Qiao Xiaren, Liu Qiang accused her angrily, “Stop putting on a show in front of everybody. The police are interested in the truth. How can there be a woman as ruthless as you in this world? If Siyu’s face is truly ruined, I will never let you off!”
“The truth?” Qiao Xiaren looked at Liu Qiang. “I’m sure Mr. Liu is aware that the hot pot restaurant has surveillance equipment, right? If you want the truth, let’s watch the surveillance footage from just now. The truth will be revealed soon.”
“Miss Qiao, we’ve already sent someone to retrieve the surveillance footage. Unfortunately, the restaurant owner said the surveillance equipment was down that day,” the police explained.
It was down? Qiao Xiaren frowned. What a coincidence!
“Miss Qiao, we still need you to come to the station with us,” Liu Qiang said with a cold smile on his face. Lowering his voice so that only Qiao Xiaren could hear, he said, “You can always give me a call when you’re ready.”
He would never leave any incriminating evidence for Qiao Xiaren. He knew Zhou Siyu’s character very well, this was likely a mess she started on her own, but ended up hurting herself instead.
Heh~
Xiaren remained calm, speaking in a measured tone loud enough for everyone to hear, “The restaurant might not have any evidence, but my phone does. Conveniently, I managed to record everything when Miss Zhou entered the hot pot restaurant. So, it would soon be clear who’s right and who’s wrong.”
Qiao Xiaren had never anticipated things would turn out like this. It was just that the lessons of her past life taught her how unpredictable people could be. Even if you don’t harm them, they might still wish to see you dead.
Hence, the moment Zhou Siyu walked in, she discreetly started recording a video on her phone, capturing everything and keeping this card up her sleeve.
Once she finished speaking, Liu Qiang’s complexion drastically changed. He looked as if he had seen a ghost, his eyes fixed on Qiao Xiaren, appearing somewhat skeptical about what kind of footage she could produce on her phone.
Qiao Xiaren took her phone out from her bag and opened the video section. Her steady demeanor drove Liu Qiang to the edge, his face turning ashen and his heart restless.
