Ji Tongtong said that although she didn't see it, having lived with Chu Zheng for so long, she wouldn't feel wrong. It was Chu Zheng.
Chu Zheng, however, denied it with a cold expression on her face.
It's not her.
She hasn't done it.
Evidence is needed.
The absence of evidence is slander.
"Sister, why are you doing me such harm..."
It's not me. Chu Zheng denied it with great confidence.
Ji Tongtong's eyes were red: "It's you..." Dad, it's my elder sister. It was she who harmed me... How will I meet people in the future? Dad, you have to make the decision for me!
Yang Xixi is her friend. They can hold hands, go shopping together and even sleep in the same bed.
But...
Thinking of what had happened before, Ji Tongtong felt a wave of nausea in her heart, cried even harder and lost control of her emotions.
"Old Ji, you must find out this matter thoroughly!" The stepmother held Ji Tongtong in her arms. So many people witnessed this today, including the Meng family... The matter of the marriage alliance was already agreed upon. How could such a thing happen by chance?
Thinking of this, the stepmother felt a pang of resentment in her heart.
If this had been done by Ji Chuzheng, she would never have let her go!
Ji's father: "..."
He glanced at his daughter standing outside the door, who was extremely cold, and didn't know what to say.
Ji's father finally asked his stepmother to take Ji Tongtong back to her room first.
As for Yang Xixi... Yang Xixi originally intended to harm Chu Zheng. The things were prepared by her. She had no idea how Chu Zheng found out.
All she knew was that she had been dragged to this room by Chu Zheng and forced down half a cup of wine.
Of course she couldn't say this. Otherwise, in the end, it would only be her fault for not responding.
Yang Xixi could only grit her teeth and say she didn't know. Ji Fu asked the Yang family to take Yang Xixi back first.
However, with such a thing happening, how could the Yang family just let it go?
When Ji's father sent the Yang family away, he looked at the mess with a headache.
Buzz buzz buzz...
The vibration of the mobile phone is particularly jarring in the empty environment.
"Mr. Ji, we've found out..."
With the voice on the phone, Ji's father's already gloomy expression became even more gloomy at this moment.
-
The stepmother insisted that Ji's father investigate the truth of this matter. Her daughter had suffered such a great injustice. How could she meet people in the circle in the future?
Now the whole circle probably knows that her daughter is a lily and did such things at the birthday party...
The Yang family was also unyielding.
On the contrary, Chu Zheng's unwavering routine of going to and from school was completely unaffected.
The medicine was obtained by Yang Xixi. As a student, even if she was careful in doing things, she would still leave traces.
When Ji's father found out this point, he directly showed the evidence to the Yang family, who were immediately at a loss for words.
As for why Yang Xixi herself was affected, she has to ask herself. The Ji family is not responsible.
"Old Ji, Tongtong has suffered such a great injustice. Don't you care?" Tongtong said... It was Chu Zheng who did it. I know Chu Zheng is your daughter. I have always regarded her as my own daughter all these years and have never treated her unfairly. Why did she hurt me like this, Tong Tong?
Ji Fu was stopped and questioned by his stepmother.
Ji Fu rubbed his eyebrows and said, "You should ask Tongtong about this matter properly. Don't slander Chu Zheng."
What do you mean, Old Ji? Tongtong has been wronged. Why do you still question her now? The stepmother quit.
Ji's father didn't want to suspect Ji Tongtong, but thinking of the incident he had been investigated for before, the result... It's actually related to Ji Tongtong.
Ji Tongtong didn't show up in person, but it was she who went to put the money in person.
Ordinary people can't find it, so can he?
Ji Tongtong sent someone to force a girl to be his daughter. Was this what the Ji Tongtong he remembered could do?
These days, Ji's father has been suppressing his anger, constantly wondering if there might be some misunderstanding.
Have someone check it again.
No matter how many times it is checked, the result is the same.
That matter is closely related to Ji Tongtong.
For the birthday party, the medicine was brought by Yang Xixi. Yang Xixi never used this kind of medicine for herself.
Since it's not for oneself, then for whom is it?
No matter who it is for, Yang Xixi is reaping what she has sown.
As for Ji Tongtong...
"Old Ji, are you speaking?" You must stand up for Tongtong. Otherwise, how will she be able to see people in the future? Do you know what's being said about Tongtong outside now?
"Enough!" Ji Fu scolded.
He wanted to say something, but in the end held back, pushed his stepmother away and left quickly.
"Old Ji!"
"Old Ji, stop!"
What do you mean!
The stepmother shouted from behind.
However, Ji Fu didn't even turn his head and left.
The stepmother was so angry that she gasped for breath. As soon as she turned her head, she met Chu Zheng's cold gaze.
"It's you..." The stepmother pointed at the Chuzheng, and anger welled up in her eyes: "It's you who caused my Tongtong."
Chu Zheng carried her schoolbag downstairs and asked, "Do you have any evidence?"
"Tongtong saw you!" She believed that Tongtong wouldn't talk nonsense. It must have been her who did it.
She also asked Tongtong why it was Tongtong and Yang Xixi who ended up being targeted when Yang Xixi wanted to discipline Chu Zheng.
"Ji Chuzheng, you little bitch! How could you hurt Tongtong like this? I knew you weren't a good person!" The stepmother grew angrier and angrier as she spoke. She rushed forward in a few steps and raised her hand to strike the zither.
Chu Zheng, holding onto the handrail, leaped over and gave his stepmother a push from behind.
The stepmother, who had already exerted force, was pushed by Chu Zheng and threw herself directly onto the steps.
"Ji Chu Zheng!"
You are so noisy. It would be great if it could be done. It would save so much trouble. What a pity!
Chu Zheng left indifferently, carrying her schoolbag.
The stepmother got up, but Chu Zheng was nowhere to be found.
-
It seemed that Ji's father was looking into his stepmother. For several days, there was no sign of her. The stepmother and Ji Tongtong were obviously uneasy, but they couldn't get any news about Ji's father.
Chu Zheng thought her stepmother was quarrelling with Ji Tongtong and didn't come back either.
That day, she needed to get something and took the opportunity to come back from school. She ran into a quarrel between her stepmother and Ji's father. They had no idea what they were arguing about before. When she got back, they happened to be talking about divorce.
The stepmother reacted strongly and firmly refused to divorce.
Ji's father threw a stack of photos over, and his stepmother's expression instantly turned pale.
Chu Zheng ignored them and went straight upstairs.
Half an hour later, Ji's father knocked on her door.
Ji's father looked haggard and his face was full of apology. "Chu Zheng, it was Dad who neglected you before. I thought I'd find someone to take care of you, but I never expected it would make you suffer even more."
It's all because that woman and Ji Tongtong usually behave too well.
Ji Chuzheng is rebellious. At home, they are more like the ones being bullied.
He has never delved deeply into it either; he always looks at the surface.
These days, he has carefully gone through everything that has happened over the years and realized how thoroughly he had been deceived by the surface.
Chu Zheng told him that the mother and daughter were after his family property.
He didn't believe it deep down because she never inquired about the affairs of her own company.
But...
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that this woman had actually done quite a few things in secret.
"Forgive Dad. Dad knows he was wrong. From now on, Dad will surely make it up to you well."
It's all in the past. The zither responded ambiguously.
Ji's father's eyes were a little red: "Dad will handle this matter well. Don't worry."
Chu Zheng nodded.
The words that Ji's father was on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back in circles. Eventually, he sighed and gave her a couple of instructions before leaving the room.
