Chapter 80: I Have a Piece of Evidence Too
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
A huge question mark gradually appeared in the witness’s mind. Then, he turned to look at Sisi mechanically, only to see Sisi’s face full of hatred and resentment.
F*ck, it was over.
The acting was a mess.
The witness was already dumbfounded. He Jing continued to ask, “How much money did I give you? How many votes did I get you to buy from others? Don’t give an overestimation. I’m poor and might not be able to afford it.”
The witness braced himself. “1..1 forgot about these…”
He Jing pretended to be surprised and widened her beautiful eyes. “You’re kidding. You just received the money and you forgot. Your memory is too bad.”
The witness laughed dryly and found an excuse to slip away. “I suddenly remembered that my girlfriend is having an abortion today. I have to accompany her to the hospital, so I’ll leave first…”
He Jing was not unreasonable. She nodded and saw that he was almost running away. Then, she turned to Sisi and said with a smile, “The witness you found seems to have some IQ problems. What should we do? Do you have other witnesses?”
At this point, there was no other way out except to be stubborn. Sisi gritted her teeth and argued, “He clearly told me that before…”
“Oh- I‘ He Jing continued to smile. “Actually, I also have a piece of evidence. If everyone is interested, I can show it to you.” Cheng Yi’s head buzzed and she hastily said, “No!”
She felt guilty.
Although she did not know what evidence He Jing had, it was definitely unfavorable to her. She could not suffer a greater blow.
She didn’t want to drop out of school and disappoint Mr. and Mrs. Cheng.
Cheng Yi quickly walked up to He Jing, her eyes pleading. She said in a low voice, “Give…Give Sisi a chance. She didn’t mean to frame you. Please forgive her this once, okay?”
Then, in a small voice that only the two of them could hear, she said, “He Jing, please forgive me once on account of my brothers. I won’t do it again.”
He Jing quietly looked at her. She couldn’t figure out why this person was so different from the heroine in the original novel. She said calmly, “I’m not a person who can endure grievances. Cheng Yi, this is already the second time.”
She hadn’t settled scores with her for previously making the Cheng family call to scold her.
Cheng Yi blushed and bit her lower lip without saying a word. Then, her fingers curled up into fists as if she had made up her mind. She looked up at everyone and said loudly, “I admit that I was the one who manipulated the votes. I’m very sorry that I made such a decision because of my vanity. I apologize to Xu Bi!”
Sisi and Zhang Man were stunned.
They rushed over and grabbed Cheng Yi’s arm. “Xiao Yi, how can you say that…”
The evidence that He Jing had might not be the evidence that they had manipulated the votes.
Why not just take a gamble?
Cheng Yi brushed their hands away and glared at He Jing venomously. She said self-righteously, “I’m sorry. I lied to you guys and made you suffer for me without knowing the truth. However, since the matter has been exposed, there’s nothing to hide. I don’t want you guys to be hurt because of me.” She couldn’t afford to gamble.
She couldn’t face the disappointment in Mr. and Mrs. Cheng’s eyes. She didn’t want to scram from Yin High School just like that.
That would make her feel inferior to He Jing. This was something she could not accept no matter what.
A real heiress would never lose to a fake one. A fake would always be a fake. She was the real goddess. Even if she occasionally went overboard, she could make amends. She had to surpass He Jing.
Sisi and Zhang Man were touched beyond words. They didn’t expect that Cheng Yi would be willing to bear everything for them.
They did not know it was only that Cheng Yi had been forced into a corner. Self-destruction could actually save some of her image. He Jing suddenly admired her wisdom, courage, and nerve. As expected of the female lead, it was admirable for her to make a bold decision!
However…
He Jing smiled lightly. “Ah, I didn’t expect that Cheng Yi really fixed the votes.
The evidence in my hands actually has nothing to do with the vote-fixing..”
