Chapter 262 - Self-Harm (自残陷害)
Jing Yun Zhao was too lazy to give Qiao Hong Ye a response, and to Qiao Hong Ye, this kind of attitude had become arrogance. This gave her an extremely uncomfortable taste in her heart.
Not long later, news came down from the hospital. The three victims were safe and were no longer in critical condition. Of course, similarly, this presented the fact that they wouldn’t have lived without her urgent critical treatment.
Within the tea house, there were also the victims families who remained and were now surrounding Mother Jiang like a pool of water.
The police had also found the leftover heartbreak grass in the tea house and therefore, the Jiang family couldn’t deny their responsibility in this situation as the main transgressors.
Now, the once quiet and secluded tea house had turned into a circus. Mother Jiang was one who held a lot of importance on her reputation and identity; under these circumstances, how could an upper class lady like her maintain her image? It had completely collapsed in her flurry.
Moreover, Jiang Xia had always been full of himself. Faced with this group of people creating trouble, he became frustrated.
“The tea from your tea house almost killed my husband and our family of five almost lost our breadwinner! You unscrupulous businessmen are shameless! If you don’t give me an explanation or I’ll never let you rest!”
“Still calling yourself the number one tea house! I think all you have are poisonous teas! I shouldn’t have come to such a place! Everyone, smash it up!”
“That’s right! Smash it up…”
……
As the crowd shouted their complaints, they one by one began to take action and any tea cups or pots on the tables instantly landed on the floor, the sound of breaking glass never ending. Jing Yun Zhao stood by the side, far far away from them. What happened now was none of her business and she could have just left, but there were also a few people surrounding her trying to thank her. Moreover, the entrance to the shop was completely blocked by another group of people.
“Little sister1, it’s all thanks to you. The doctor said that if it wasn’t for your timely assistance, all three of them would have lost their lives!”
“Student, you’re practically the benefactor of our family…”
“Which school are you from? I will personally pay a visit to your home and your school later on and let everyone know of your honourable actions…”
Jing Yun Zhao was calm and unaffected, while Qiao Hong Ye was full of jealousy and anger.
Just what did Jing Yun Zhao do for these debt demanding ghosts to be so deeply grateful to her?
We’re trying to negotiate with these people over here, while Jing Yun Zhao is so effortlessly receiving the gratitude of others over there. Since she’s so great, shouldn’t she come over here at this time to tell these people to get lost?2
Right now, people were pointing fingers at Qiao Hong Ye and scolding her, so she felt extremely wronged. She wasn’t part of the Jiang Family…
“Our family is also very surprised that something has happened to them, but it’s also not right for all of you to make trouble here. Moreover, my dad has been operating this tea house for more than a decade and nothing has happened before! You never know, it could be those three people who want to set us up and reap the benefits!” Having been pressured by these people to his breaking point, Jiang Xia spat out.
When she heard, Qiao Hong Ye was so angered her eyes rolled to the back of her head.
Fucking dumbass! 3
Presently, there were a few people who stayed around just to join in the heat, but the numbers weren’t significant. The others were all the family and friends of the three victims, yet Jiang Xia dared to say it was self mutilation and they were trying to make up false charges, wouldn’t they just get angrier?!
As expected, Jiang Xia’s (brainless) words were like a stone creating waves. One of the men from the other side was so angered his face turned red and the veins in his neck bulged as he pointed at Jiang Xia and shouted, “Did you hear what he said? Are those words human?! You’re saying we’re setting you up? Little brother 1, their lives were almost lost just now! Using their lives to frame you? Do you think you’re worth it?! What’s more, the police even came over just now. Were the things they brought out from your back kitchen fakes?!”
Jiang Xia choked and blushed, but seeing how everything in his family’s tea house had become a scattered mess, his heart continued to rage. “Anyway, our tea leaves have never had a problem! On what basis are you to arbitrarily assert that it’s our fault?! Haven’t the things that were carried away not tested yet? They might actually turn out to have no abnormalities!”
