Chapter 898 - 898: Use Your Brain When You Do Things

Xiao Feng's eyes flashed with a hint of treachery, though he concealed it well.

He put on a "forced smile" expression, hesitating, and said: "It's nothing, just that Zhao Ce tried to do something improper to you, but the kids in the yard discovered it in time.

Then the aunt cooking in the cafeteria called the police promptly to save you.

Zhao Ce didn't succeed, really didn't succeed!"

Upon hearing this, Nie Longjiao's beautiful face turned pale.

She had thought Xiao Feng would deliberately make things sound bad, taking the opportunity to see her humiliated, and had mentally prepared for it.

But she never expected to receive such an answer.

The expression on the other party's face and the repeated emphasis on "didn't succeed" made her think deeply about whether she really...

Her delicate body trembled twice, forcing herself to calm down and think, then she abruptly raised her head and asked: "How did you get here?"

"Your dad called and said you might be in some situation here, so he asked me to come over." Xiao Feng answered truthfully.

"And when you got here, the police were already gone?"

"More or less, when I came in, a policewoman was just helping you with your clothes... uh, helping you lift your clothes to measure blood pressure and temperature and such."

Just hearing this made Nie Longjiao uneasy, but she maintained composure and said: "Just tell me the truth, whatever it is, I can accept it."

Xiao Feng was silent for a moment, as if wavering: "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure!" Nie Longjiao nodded firmly.

In fact, she listened to Xiao Feng's next words with a skeptical attitude.

After hearing him out, she would ask Aunt Qiao.

But what if Aunt Qiao is conspiring with Xiao Feng... Forget it, let's hear what this guy has to say first.

Just then, Xiao Feng sighed and said: "Honestly, when I arrived, the police were helping you get dressed.

You might think I'm making up a story to deceive you, but I assure you, every word I told you is true.

If you don't believe it... you have a small black mole near your spine on your waist, you can check if I'm wrong."

Nie Longjiao was stunned by these words, making up a story couldn't include such details, but who even notices if there's a mole on their waist!

"Go on." Nie Longjiao said calmly.

Xiao Feng nodded and said: "Then Zhao Ce, who was handcuffed by the police, kept shouting at me, saying I arrived late and that his life was worth it.

After that, I gave you two Antitoxic Pills you saw last time, and after you woke up, I notified the ambulance to leave.

Is there anything else you want to know?"

Nie Longjiao shook her head: "No, I'll check myself."

After speaking, she pointed towards the top of the doorway.

Xiao Feng turned his head to see a wide-angle camera stuck to the ceiling in the corner.

This discovery made him look at Nie Longjiao with eyes as if she were a pervert: "You installed it?"

"Of course not, it should be installed by Zhao Ce himself." Nie Longjiao replied, though inside she wasn't sure whether to be grateful or resentful.

Grateful for that it could let her know what happened during the time she fainted.

Resentful because the footage might be unbearable to watch...

While thinking, Xiao Feng advised: "Better not watch it, just pretend like nothing happened, it's all good."

"I don't believe what you said just now."

"But what if what I said is the actual truth?"

Nie Longjiao was silent for a long time before replying: "I won't give up on myself. Even if I die, I'll do it after avenging myself."

After speaking, she took a deep breath and countered: "If Zhao Ce really did something to me, what... would you do?"

"It is what it is." Xiao Feng shrugged: "Although it was related to your carelessness, this matter is not your fault, I definitely won't judge you because of it.

By the way, how are you feeling now?"

"It's nothing, just a bit dizzy." Nie Longjiao furrowed her brow, feeling inexplicably annoyed inside.

Xiao Feng pondered: "It's better to go to the hospital for a full body check-up. You're awake now, but I don't know what drug Zhao Ce gave you, or its side effects.

Better check early to avoid some chronic condition without knowing."

"Can you stop scaring me?" Nie Longjiao said irritably.

Xiao Feng looked puzzled: "How can you call this scaring? Even medicine has its toxicity, have you seen anyone taking medicine for no reason?"

"Even if I go to the hospital, I need to know what happened during the time I fainted." Nie Longjiao said assertively.

After calming her parents over the phone, she resisted the dizziness and got out of bed, pulled a chair to the corner, stood on it, and used her phone's light to see clearly the camera brand.

Nowadays, smart cameras can be connected via phone, and with specialized software, you can check recorded footage.

Of course, checking surveillance records requires a password, and for this, you need a professional to handle it.

Nie Longjiao stood on tiptoe, trying hard to remember the English letters on the camera, but just as she memorized the last letter, her foot slipped, stepping on the edge of the stool and falling backward.

"Ah!"

The scream in her ear made Xiao Feng speechless, this girl wasn't very bright and also clumsy.

But despite his complaints, Xiao Feng took a step forward to catch the falling Nie Longjiao.

One hand wrapped around her slender waist, while the other hand ended up on... a certain unspeakable prominent part.

Heavenly conscience, this was definitely not intentional!

Yet regardless of intent, the atmosphere turned awkward.

Once Nie Longjiao realized, she hurriedly broke free, her beautiful face as red as a ripe apple.

That wasn't the worst part, the key was after that moment, she found the letters she remembered all jumbled up, only recalling which ones were there but forgetting their order.

Usually, this brand only requires remembering the first few letters, then typing them into a phone browser, and automatically, the desired brand appears.

However, Nie Longjiao thought hard but still couldn't recall the first few letters.

"I'll go up again to check." Nie Longjiao said.

"Forget it." Xiao Feng, looking helpless: "Going up again and you'll fall again, I don't want to catch you another time."

Nie Longjiao couldn't hold back her anger: "You make it sound like I want to be caught by you!"

Xiao Feng then took out his phone, opened the camera, and zoomed in, making the letters on the camera clear as day.

"Is this even possible?" Nie Longjiao was dumbfounded.

Xiao Feng smirked: "You need to use your brain when doing things, someone as dim as you is really rare."

"I... I just don't have a phone as good as yours." Nie Longjiao retorted stubbornly, unwilling to admit she hadn't thought of this method.

But her rebuttal felt weak even to herself, lacking any convincing strength.
