70s: Transmigrated as the Male Lead's Early Deceased Cannon Fodder Stepsister

Ning Xi unexpectedly died and transmigrated into a period novel she had read. She wasn't the female lead, nor a major supporting character; she was merely a minor cannon fodder described in les...

Chapter 80 Eavesdropping

Ning Xi breathed a sigh of relief when she learned that Li Lei had rubbed her with the ugly pepper and pulled up her pants because she thought her menstrual period was dirty.

Menstruation is torturous, but unexpectedly, it saved Zhu Yue at the critical moment.

When Zhu Yue thought of Li Lei's hideous appearance, she also became annoyed with her stomach and raised her hand to slap her stomach hard.

As if this could drive away any baby that might be there.

Ning Xi held her back, "Don't hit yourself. This doesn't count as a real relationship between you two, but we can't just let ourselves be bullied like this."

After giving her some basic physiological knowledge, Ning Xi said:

"Now tell me in detail what happened before this incident."

"That day, Li Lei, Qian Minli, and I were arranged to go to the hospital to visit a retired leader."

Zhu Yue was frightened by Ning Xi's serious expression. She followed her instructions and carefully recalled what happened that day and told her everything.

"And then? Could it be that there's no one in the ward and Qian Minli is missing again?"

Wait, why does Qian Minli's name sound familiar?

"How did you know?!" Zhu Yue's eyes widened. Could it be that Ning Xi could predict the future? No, no, there was no such thing as supernatural powers now.

"After Qian Minli left, I felt it was a bit awkward for the two of us to be in the same room, so I left too. Li Lei locked the door, pushed me onto the bed, and tied me up with the IV tube under the bed..."

Ning Xi pieced the whole thing together and thought it was very likely that Li Lei and Qian Minli were in the same group and had already prepared to attack Zhu Yue.

"Does Qian Minli have a younger sister or older sister at home?"

Zhu Yue didn't know why Ning Xi was suddenly interested in Qian Minli, but she still answered obediently: "She has a younger sister at home, Qian Minfang, who is said to be a nurse in the hospital..."

Nurse?!

Zhu Yue took a deep breath and got goose bumps all over her arms that were exposed in the hottest days of summer.

This outing was arranged by Qian Minli at the request of her superiors, and she was the only one who knew information such as the ward number.

Although Zhu Yue doesn't like her current job, she does her job well and is quite rigorous in her work. When she entered the hospital, she even made sure to confirm the ward number.

"Nurse?" Information came like a tide. At this moment, Ning Xi's mind was unusually clear, and many things buried deep in her memory appeared before her eyes again.

Qian Minfang is the heroine of the original novel.

The heroine is the third child in the family, neither in the middle nor out of the ordinary. She is the one who is ignored by her parents and has to hand over most of her salary every month.

But she never had a share of the delicious food at home, while her elder sister, who never paid her salary, was her parents' favorite.

Later, the heroine's sister planned to make the heroine marry a widower, but the heroine outmaneuvered her and made her sister get together with the widower, and they were even caught in bed together.

Ning Xi remembered that the comment section was full of applause at that time, and she was one of them.

The heroine's methods are not limited to this.

She got evidence that her sister and others had raped a woman, causing the woman to become depressed and eventually hang herself. She reported them, and her sister was eventually executed. She also successfully broke off ties with her family.

Thinking of this, Ning Xi was shocked. Could this woman who hanged herself be Zhu Yue?

Ning Xi: "Are you in competition with Qian Minli in terms of interests or work?"

After spending time together in the hospital, Ning Xi felt that Zhu Yue was, to put it bluntly, an innocent girl who was raised by her family, and most importantly, her personality was okay.

Not arrogant or indulgent, and kind-hearted.

No normal person would frame others for no reason. The motive for a crime is very important. As long as the motive is there and the perpetrator fails, there will be a next time and a next time.

"Hmm?" Zhu Yue thought for a moment. "There's a rumor that they're going to promote one of us to be deputy director. I don't know if it's true, and I haven't paid much attention to it."

She didn't even want to do it now.

Zhu Yue works in the Personnel Department of the district government. Although it is called the Personnel Department, it should actually be called the Comprehensive Coordination Department, as it is responsible for all kinds of miscellaneous matters.

The human interactions and complications involved made her feel suffocated.

Ning Xi was just about to discuss with Zhu Yue how to deal with this scumbag and bitch when the door creaked open. It was not the main door, but the door to the inner room.

Director Zhu walked out with an angry look on his face.

Zhu Yue was horrified and her face turned pale: "Dad?! Why are you home?"

"You are so confused! How could I raise such a stupid daughter like you?"

Zhu Zhiyong's calves were shaking so much that he picked up the cold tea on the table and drank it all to cool down his temper.

A while ago, his daughter suddenly said she wanted to get married, so he first asked someone to find out more about the other party.

Although he didn't like Li Lei's appearance, he acquiesced because he thought his daughter liked him and that his character was decent in the eyes of the neighbors.

The wedding was urgent and I was busy every day. It took a lot of effort to prepare the dowry, and I also had to use my connections to apply for approval to buy wine and candy.

I couldn't bear it anymore today. After working half a day in the morning, Zhu Zhiyong simply took a day off in the afternoon and took a nap.

He woke up as soon as Ning Xi entered the house. He got up and adjusted his clothes to see if there was anything wrong. Just as he was about to go out to say hello, the sound of chatting outside came into his ears.

Zhu Zhiyong simply stuck to the door and eavesdropped.

Although eavesdropping on the conversation between two little girls is a bit shameless, this is a big matter concerning his daughter, so Zhu Zhiyong is willing to be a villain.

Zhu Yue looked terrified. Looking at her father's gloomy face, she didn't dare to say a word. She silently moved a little closer to Ning Xi. She felt sad. Was her father blaming her?
