Novel Full Chapter 129 - A Poisonous Woman (1)
Su Xiaofei looked coldly at the young woman who was in tears because of her. No… this wasn't enough. Chen Li hadn't suffered enough despair and humiliation. After all the things Su Xiaofei had gone through because of her, there was no way she would easily let Chen Li off!
Housekeeper Chen arrived at that moment and saw Chen Li in a pitiful state. The old woman rushed to her daughter's side and glared furiously at Su Xiaofei and Yun Qingrong, as if accusing them of bullying Chen Li.
"Madam, how could you treat my daughter this way? Xiao Li has done nothing wrong! It is clear that Su Xiaofei is the one who set up my Xiao Li!" She exclaimed, but the inspector, as well as the police officers accompanying him, scowled at how shameless this old woman was.
"Madam, I'm afraid you've been misinformed. Miss Su is the one being accused by your daughter here. While your daughter was busy skipping her classes, Miss Su was escorted to the station from her school. You might not be aware that Chen Li was using Su Xiaofei's name and identity to gain access to nightclubs and parties."
This immediately darkened Yun Qingrong's face as she trembled next to her daughter.
"Xiao Li! How dare you?!"
The inspector then thought that it made sense for Chen Li to act unruly and disrespectful to her elders, unlike Su Xiaofei who was polite and calm when she was talking to them. The difference between these two women's upbringing was as clear as day and night. This inevitably tilted the scale in Su Xiaofei's favor.
It was understandable that Housekeeper Chen would try to protect her daughter, but why was she insisting that Chen Li was innocent when it was clear that she was the one who sneaked into several clubs last night, drinking and partying as if there was no tomorrow?
In her drunken state, she even offended some party goers and caused a scene. If she hadn't done those things, no one would be able to point out how she was wearing an imitation in a club filled with socialites who had keen eyes on expensive luxury goods.
"Chen Li, so you are the one who's been doing it?! Why?" Su Xiaofei's lips quivered as she held onto her mother's hand. She was creating the impression that she was the one being falsely accused by Chen Li.
Because of her ability to act well, aside from Lu Qingfeng, no one suspected that she was merely acting to gain their sympathy.
"When your father died and your family had nowhere to go, wasn't it my mother who took you in and helped your mother send you and your brother to school with her own money, aside from the monthly salary that your mother received? My Mama and I didn't wrong you over the years you stayed in our household, so why? Why are you doing this?" She questioned Chen Li.
The young woman gasped at her in shock, not expecting that Su Xiaofei would pull something like this in front of everyone. Chen Li wasn't sure why, but there was something different about Su Xiaofei as she looked at her now.
It was like she was looking at a different person who shared the same face as Su Xiaofei. This woman's eyes were frigid cold, as if it could devour her entirety at any time. No, this can't be the same Su Xiaofei she grew up with over the past five years. There was no way in hell that this stupid woman would be able to play her like this.
"Miss Chen, you do realize that aside from being sued by Mr. Si, Miss Su here could also sue you for defamation?" The inspector informed her, delivering another shocking fact, not only to her, but to Housekeeper Chen as well.
"This…" The old woman looked at Su Xiaofei with a conflicted expression on her face.
Su Xiaofei was certain that Housekeeper Chen was hesitating to beg for Chen Li's sake. Alas, that would be impossible, as the enmity between herself and the Chen family could never be dismissed nor forgotten in this life.
Chen Li was the one who created her own storm, so why was it that when the rain came and fell hard on her, she pushed the blame to Su Xiaofei? Wasn't she the one who started stealing things and caused this problem on her own?
As to why Su Xiaofei had set her up, it was precisely because she was aware that Chen Li would give her more trouble in the future. See, even now, Chen Li had started impersonating her.
If she allowed Chen Li to continue with this, her name would be tarnished for good before she knew it.
"Let's just wait and see whether Chen Li really has Feifei's Butterfly Chrysalis dress." Lu Qingfeng suggested, which only added to Chen Li's humiliation. He was looking at her with disgust, as if he couldn't wait for the police to put her behind bars for daring to impersonate Su Xiaofei.
She could only look at Lu Qingfeng with teary eyes as she dug her fingernails painfully into her palm. Who would want to be humiliated in front of a person one liked? Obviously, not Chen Li.
She had been holding deep feelings and admiration towards Lu Qingfeng for some time now, and whenever he came to the Yun Mansion, Chen Li would always make sure she looked presentable in his presence.
It was one of the reasons why she started taking interest in Su Xiaofei's belongings, especially the ones that the latter had been ignoring for some time. However, Chen Li had never thought that a day like this would come, a day when she would be seen by Lu Qingfeng at her worst.
Why? Chen Li thought. It was obvious that Su Xiaofei was not a good person, so why was Lu Qingfeng standing up for her?
