But she did not lose her mind.
Instead, he took a deep breath and said in a solemn tone never before: "Qiao Shan, do you know what the consequences are for maliciously framing and wrongly accusing military personnel?"
Qiao Shan opened his mouth, probably wanting to say that he didn't, but under Qiao Qingqing's stern gaze that made people feel cold, he felt uneasy in his heart - he clearly believed Lily's words so much.
In the end, he could only be stubborn and say, "If that wasn't the case, why did you encourage everyone to isolate He Zhiqing? You relied on your position as the head of the Zhiqing Office to take the lead in targeting He Zhiqing at the Zhiqing meeting, causing He Zhiqing to want to commit suicide."
"Where's the evidence?" Qiao Qingqing narrowed her eyes and took a step closer to Qiao Shanyi. "If you do something, you need evidence. You slander my lover without saying anything, but can you show me any evidence?"
"He Zhiqing is indeed wicked, but she is not just wicked towards my lover. She is the same towards all the male students around her. I can ask the educated youth to point out some male educated youth to testify to this!"
"My wife rebuked He Zhiqing in person, so He Zhiqing has held a grudge against my husband and me ever since. Together with Shi Wang, he slandered me in front of Zhou Hongjun, causing Zhou Hongjun to harbor malicious thoughts towards me. It was also He Zhiqing who secretly revealed my whereabouts to Zhou Hongjun, allowing Zhou Hongjun to stake out my whereabouts. These are not fabricated by me, but the confessions of Zhou Hongjun and others when they were arrested!"
Qiao Qingqing had said it long ago that the smartest lie is a mixture of truth and lies.
Therefore, when she talks about these things together, people tend to only pay attention to the part they know. They will think that they have heard some of the news before and subconsciously believe that all her content is true.
For a time, He Lili's reputation plummeted to the bottom, and at the same time, Lu Heng was also removed from the scandal.
No matter how tough Qiao Shan is, he can deceive others but not himself. It is true that He Lili is in love with Qiao Chuan, and it is also true that she is sleeping with him secretly.
So Qiao Shan inevitably felt more and more guilty.
But he was also thinking about what he had promised He Lili. If he couldn't help He Lili get home leave, how would he face He Lili when he returned home?
Qiao Shan got anxious and stammered, "You, you're talking nonsense! You're jealous of He Zhiqing. You see she's pretty and likable, so you want to discredit her. Qiao Qingqing, we're both women, how can you be so evil? You're happy to ruin He Zhiqing's reputation and make her miserable, aren't you?"
Without waiting for Qiao Qingqing's sharp rebuttal, Qiao Shan stated his purpose in one breath.
"He Zhiqing is really too pitiful! I really can't stand your behavior. You killed a person in vain. Who knows how others will look at our Qiao family in the future. If you are not so vicious, you should let He Zhiqing go back to visit his relatives. Aren't you the head of the Zhiqing Office? If the people above know that you forced a sent-down youth to death, aren't you afraid of being held accountable?"
When Qiao Shan said this in public, Yao Xiaoman even thought he was extremely stupid.
He couldn't help but burst out laughing, his tone full of sarcasm: "Qiao Shan, you are so stupid! You have no relationship with He Lili, but you jumped out to stand up for her. Do you know what your actions mean to us?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the villagers watching began to talk about it.
Someone took over Yao Xiaoman's words: "What else can that mean? It must be that Qiao Shan has taken a fancy to this educated youth He!"
"Then there will be a show to watch... I still remember that there was news that He Zhiqing and Qiao Chuan had done something?"
"It seems that what Yao Zhiqing said was right! These Qiao brothers really do... share a wife!"
