Chapter 26: Well, snakes don’t necessarily lie, but people do.

Wu Jie's voice choked with emotion as she picked up her phone. "I can take everyone to question them, but no matter what the outcome, I hope you won't pursue it any further."

Netizens cheered.

Bai Shao frowned.

She has been tasting tea for many years, and the tea aroma from the person in front of her is almost overflowing the screen.

I hope she is not overthinking it. Even if she is unaware of the situation, she is unwilling to help the evil.

Wu Jie dialed Hao Hong's number, and soon, Hao Hong knocked on the office door.

After walking in.

Across the walnut desk.

Hao Hong sat down with her legs crossed, holding a lady's cigarette between her slender fingers. Her tone was not friendly: "It's working hours now, why are you looking for me? I thought there was nothing more to talk about between us."

Wu Jie put on her glasses again.

There was no reply. The whole room seemed to be frozen, and the silence made people's backs chill.

Bai Shao couldn't see Hao Hong's face, but from her tone she could tell that he was a straightforward person.

Wu Jie deliberately acted very sad in front of the camera: "Do you still remember the day you and your son had a car accident? I was the one who took you to the hospital."

Hao Hong felt as if her soft spot had been pinched, and her breathing became rapid. She lit a cigarette, using the nicotine to numb herself. "You're truly worthy of being someone who climbed up from the countryside. You do a little good and you want to ask for something in return. Tell me, what do you want me to do this time?"

Wu Jie glanced at the computer.

The viewers in the live broadcast room were outraged.

[With my hot temper, she probably doesn't realize her scheme has been exposed.]

[Identification completed, the person who came is not a good person.]

[In my opinion, she's just jealous of Sister Wu's wealth, yet she still looks down on rural people.]

【Did the rural people offend you? 】

Wu Jie looked innocent: "Why do you think of me like this? I didn't mean that. I just wanted to ask why our relationship suddenly became like this..."

Hao Hong slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, flicked the cigarette butt, and interrupted with a sneer: "It's okay for you to pretend to be pretentious with outsiders, but there's really no need to do that with me."

Wu Jie stopped performing and slowly stood up, her hands resting on the table. Out of the camera's sight, her cold gaze fell on Hao Hong's face, her tone meaningful: "Then do you admit that you used the venomous snake to harm me?"

Hao Hong's body trembled, and the cigarette ash fell off. She stared for a long time without saying a word.

Wu Jie turned the computer screen and pointed the camera at Hao Hong: "Are you speechless? You have a harmonious family and a successful career. Why are you jealous of me? Why are you plotting to harm me? I trust you so much and consider you a good friend!"

In an instant.

Hao Hong's pupils trembled as she appeared within the sight of the viewers in the live broadcast room.

[She felt guilty! She had nothing to say!]

[She looks so pretty, but her heart is so dirty.]

[She dyed her hair red and smoked. It's obvious that she doesn't belong to a respectable family.]

What are you waiting for if you don't call the police?

Hao Hong closed her eyes, then opened them again, with a struggle in her eyes. She put out her cigarette, as if she had made some decision, and was about to nod and admit her crime in public.

Bai Shao looked at the man with a deep gaze and said, "If it wasn't you, there's no need to admit it."

The sudden sound disrupted my composure.

Wu Jie wanted to reach through the screen with her hands and strangle Bai Shao's neck to make her shut up.

Hao Hong raised her eyes and found that under the layers of barrage, there was a beautiful girl sitting. Her black jade eyes were as deep as an ancient well, like a magic mirror in the hands of a god, seemingly able to see through all illusions.

Wu Jie tried hard to control her expression, her tone lengthening, "What are you talking about, host? Didn't you say she trained Viper and deliberately misled me, asking me to bring Viper back?"

Bai Shao's tone was calm, and no emotion could be heard: "I'm just translating what the venomous snake said."

Wu Jie laughed: "So you mean snakes can lie?"

Bai Shao took a sip of black tea and said meaningfully, "Well, snakes don't necessarily lie, but humans definitely do."

Wu Jie's smile froze on her face.

The viewers in the live broadcast room were stunned.

【Shenmagui Development...】

【Is there a reversal here?】

Wait, who's lying?

[No, my head hurts. I need to grow some brains.]

Bai Shao ignored Wu Jie and looked at Hao Hong's shocked face. "She was the one who asked you to find a pet snake for her. She was also the one who asked you to deliberately say those words in front of the venomous snake, just to ruin your reputation. Don't be surprised. It was the micron chameleon above your head that told me."

Hao Hong looked up subconsciously.

The chameleon, which is only 2.6 cm long, arched its body to reveal its round head.

Two black eyeballs turned around, crawled out from Hao Hong's red hair, and crawled all the way to Hao Hong's palm.

Chameleons have short, stocky tails and their eyes move independently like towers, which is very adorable.

[Good man, you are really amazing. You persuaded the master to stop being stupid in no time.]

"You're amazing too. Without you, I wouldn't know." Bai Shao smiled at Chameleon and then turned to Hao Hong and said, "Why did you cooperate with her? Do you know that once you admit it, you'll be fed by the government?"

[The master knows, but she has a handle in the hands of the bad guys, and the bad guys are holding it...]

"Don't say it, please don't say it, it was me who did it, it was all me who did it!"

Hao Hong covered the chameleon.

It was all because she was too distracted when feeding the chameleon just now and didn't notice that the chameleon had climbed onto her.

She couldn't let Bai Shao tell the secret, and couldn't let more people know her secret.

Bai Shao heard Chameleon's unfinished words and said with a complicated expression: "Do you think this is good for him?"

Hao Hong shook her head wildly. She nervously tried to light a cigarette, but she was trembling and couldn't get it lit.

The smile on Wu Jie's face melted away like ice and snow. She stood up and said, "She admitted it all..."

Bai Shao's eyes held a hint of unquestionableness: "Shut up."

Compared with simple-minded animals, humans are too complicated. If she wasn't a chameleon, she might have become Wu Jie's accomplice and hurt the innocent Hao Hong.

Just thinking about this possibility.

Bai Shao looked even uglier.

Wu Jie clenched her fists, her nails pressing so hard that a row of crescent-shaped marks were left on the palms of her hands.

Wu Jie's eyes flashed with resentment.

Ever since she saw Bai Shao’s live broadcast room on Douyin, she started planning this.

Can’t Bai Shao understand animal language?

She directed and acted in this drama herself. It was easy for her to get rid of her business rival through the mouth of her pet snake and the hands of Bai Shao. And she was clean from beginning to end.

Now, it's all ruined!

Bai Shao looked at the white strands in Hao Hong's red hair and agreed with Chameleon: "You probably don't want your son to have a mother who has been in prison."

Hao Hong is still struggling with whether to reveal the secret she has hidden for five years: "But I can't lose my son."

Bai Shao understood Hao Hong's fear, but couldn't help but ask, "How do you know he won't choose you?"

Hao Hong opened his mouth.

The chameleon crawled out from between the fingers.

Bai Shao continued to translate Chameleon's inner thoughts: "Chameleon said that you gave up marrying your boyfriend of many years in order to take care of Zhuangzhuang. You love your children very much, and your children love you too. These words are not empty talk, they were all said to Chameleon by Zhuangzhuang himself after he memorized the events."

Chameleon nodded heavily: [That's right, Zhuangzhuang is not subtle about this. He always says he loves you.]

Hao Hong burst into tears. She was unable to bear children. When she found the child in the trash can in the hospital toilet, she regarded the baby as a gift from God and adopted the baby in the name of her parents.

In order to prevent her child from being looked down upon by her boyfriend's family, she did not agree to marry her boyfriend and lived with her child and Chameleon for five years.

The misfortune began with a car accident at the beginning of the year.
