Chapter 662: You Know the Consequences of Lying
In the end, Jiang Xiaoya had no choice but to admit that she had originally planned to push the matter onto Qi Shufang, but when she thought of the Qi family's background, she ultimately didn't dare to do so.
The main reason was that she still wanted Qi Shufang to save her, so before being confined, she made one request — to make a phone call.
After all, they had worked together for many years, so the company commander of the communications company had someone watch her the entire time.
After the call went through, the other end said: "Hello, may I ask who you're looking for?"
"I'm looking for Qi Shufang. Tell her Jiang Xiaoya is looking for her."
She had wanted to say it was urgent, but after a glance at the person watching her, she ultimately didn't dare say it.
Qi Shufang was just about to head out. Hearing that Jiang Xiaoya was looking for her, she assumed there was news: "Jiang Xiaoya, is there news?"
Jiang Xiaoya didn't reply, but said: "Shufang, something happened to me, there might be some trouble. Help me pass a word to my family."
Qi Shufang, hearing this: "What's wrong with you?"
Jiang Xiaoya lowered her voice: "It's not convenient to talk now."
After saying that, she hung up. The message had been sent out, that was enough, but she couldn't let Qi Shufang say any more.
She just wanted to tell Qi Shufang that they were grasshoppers on the same rope.
She didn't want anyone to know what she had done, so she had to find a way to save her.
Qi Shufang wasn't stupid either. She figured it out quickly — it seemed Jiang Xiaoya had run into trouble, and it was related to her.
She hurriedly called her cousin Qi Xiuyan: "Cousin, help me look into what happened to Jiang Xiaoya from the communications company."
Qi Xiuyan was busy as hell right now, with no time to waste on her: "What are you trying to do now? I really don't have time to play with you."
Qi Shufang, afraid he'd hang up, quickly spoke up: "It concerns the family's reputation. Handle it however you see fit."
After saying that, she copied what she'd just learned from Jiang Xiaoya and hung up directly.
Qi Xiuyan was so angry he slapped the table with his palm: "I really owe you one."
But thinking of his cousin's last words, he had no choice but to send someone to inquire.
After hearing the news his subordinate had gathered, his expression grew grave as he guessed: Could it be that his cousin had told Jiang Xiaoya to do this?
Only then would Qi Shufang be in such a rush.
Qi Xiuyan was nearly driven to death by his cousin's anger: What utter nonsense.
Who was Fu Yan Cheng? That man was fiercely protective of his own. If she dared to bully his fiancée, would that man let her off?
What an idiot.
With no choice, he had to call Xiao Xiao Laoyezi Qi, recount the whole story from beginning to end, and then share his guess: "Grandfather, we can't keep indulging her like this. A few more times like this, and the future I've traded my life for will probably be ruined by her."
Xiao Xiao Laoyezi Qi hadn't expected his little granddaughter to be so troublesome.
Seeing his eldest daughter-in-law coming down from upstairs: "Where is Shufang? Tell her to come to my study, I have something for her."
Qi Mother Wang Qiyue looked troubled: "Before you got back, she already went out."
Xiao Xiao Laoyezi Qi frowned: "Where did she go so late?"
Qi Mother, seeing the old man was unhappy: "Dad, what do you need her for? If it's urgent, I'll go out and bring her back right now."
Xiao Xiao Laoyezi Qi thought of what his grandson had said: "Go out and look for her. Tell her to come back right away."
Qi Mother couldn't help worrying inside — had her daughter gotten into trouble again? But she didn't dare ask more, and could only reply "I'll go right now" before hurrying out the door.
Meanwhile, Qi Shufang was holding a pair of jade bracelets she'd pilfered from her mother's dowry: "Brother Yao, this is my sincerity. That girl will take the earliest bus back to the city tomorrow morning."
Yao Qidong took the jade bracelet, examined it carefully for a while, then said unhurriedly: "The item's not bad, but is your information reliable? Are you sure, as you say, she's pretty enough to present? You know the consequences of lying."
