Su Qiao now works during the day and farms in her space at night.
In addition, the cleansing effect of the stream water improved my physical condition considerably.
There's no way Dong Yiyi could catch up with her.
Su Qiao quickly found the captain's location.
Lu Fugui was sitting under a tree smoking.
Suddenly he heard someone calling his name.
He turned around and saw a girl with her face covered, carrying a full basket of pig feed, walking towards him.
Seeing her hurried manner, he suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Captain, I have some issues to report."
Only when he heard the voice did he realize who was in front of him.
"What's wrong?"
“Dong Zhiqing wanted to harm me; she wanted me to die from an allergic reaction.”
Lu Fugui put down his opium pipe. "Do educated youth these days play such high-stakes games?"
That seemingly weak girl is actually ruthless?
He immediately took it seriously.
If this is true, and someone dies, wouldn't the future advanced brigade be in trouble?
Lu Fugui immediately sat up straight.
"Could it be a misunderstanding?"
“How could that be! Dong Zhiqing has seen me with my rose allergy before. She’s always known about it, and recently she’s been smelling like roses everywhere. A few days ago she insisted on holding my hand, and half my face and arm were covered in red bumps, and they’re still not healed…”
At the same time, they presented the evidence they had.
The marks on my arm are still quite noticeable.
Lu Fugui could see it clearly, of course.
Dong Yiyi finally caught up at this moment.
Lu Xiang and others followed behind him.
Dong Yiyi was unsure how much Su Qiao had actually said.
She was panting heavily. "Qiaoqiao, you... you can talk to me privately if you have something to say. There's no need to bother the captain's rest with such a trivial matter."
As he spoke, he looked at Su Qiao with a reproachful expression.
Su Qiao was so angry she almost laughed when she saw that she was still trying to pin the blame on her.
There were a few people resting next to the tree, looking at Dong Yiyi strangely.
Since they didn't hear the system's announcement, the two knew that Dong Yiyi's provocation had failed.
Su Qiao added elegantly, "Dong Zhiqing, I told you, don't call me Qiaoqiao anymore. From the moment you stole my things, we were no longer friends. Besides, if matters of life and death are trivial, then what are the important matters?"
"I've told you several times that I'm allergic to roses. I feel nauseous just from the smell, let alone touching them. Dong Zhiqing, you insisted on coming closer. Isn't that trying to harm me?"
Lu Fugui nodded, took a puff of his pipe, and said, "What do you have to say, Dong Zhiqing?"
Dong Yiyi knew that Su Qiao was telling the truth, but she only wanted to make her a little weaker; to escalate it to murder was too serious.
Before she could even think of what to say, the little ones had already started shouting.
“We can testify for Sister Su that recently, when she was at work, that educated youth Dong would always come to see her, and she couldn’t avoid him.”
"Yes, she smells nice."
"It must be the scent of roses!"
Lu Fugui was too embarrassed to smell it himself, after hearing all the children say so.
Moreover, his daughter Lu Xiang also nodded in agreement.
She never lies.
This proves that all of this is true.
Fearing that Lu Fugui wouldn't believe him, Zhu Zi, while recounting the scene from earlier, even went so far as to gesticulate wildly as he reenacted the moment when Dong Yiyi lunged at Su Qiao but ended up falling down herself.
Even the facial expressions were imitated perfectly.
The adults around him were amused by him.
Some of them even burst into laughter.
Looking at the two marks on Dong Yiyi's knees, everyone knew that Zhu Zi was not lying.
Su Qiao raised an eyebrow at Dong Yiyi.
After everyone finished laughing, they stared at Dong Yiyi, wanting an explanation.
"Dong Zhiqing, children don't lie. What do you have to say?"
Lu Fugui shook his head; this Dong Zhiqing was too muddle-headed.
Various reasons swirled in Dong Zhiqing's mind.
I couldn't think of an excuse for a moment.
Does that mean she doesn't remember?
Wouldn't that prove that my relationship with Su Qiao isn't that good?
If I admit that I know, wouldn't that be like walking right into the line of fire?
She can't bear the charge of premeditated murder.
Moreover, she has been frequently visiting Su Qiao recently. She wondered why Su Qiao was unwilling to interact with her every time she visited, and why Su Qiao was always accompanied by a group of little kids. It seems that she was already planning something back then.
These children became witnesses, including Lu Xiang, making it impossible for her to say that Su Qiao was lying.
Under the scrutinizing gazes of everyone, she could only choose the one that would cause the least harm.
"I...I just forgot by accident..."
A large crowd gathered, pointing and whispering among themselves.
Su Qiao pretended to be heartbroken.
"So, you never considered me a friend... All these years of friendship, I've just given it all away! From today onwards, we're no longer friends! Don't even think about getting anything from me again!"
"Qiaoqiao..."
Su Qiao glared at her.
Dong Yiyi then changed her tune, "Su Zhiqing, I really don't remember, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to, I apologize to you. Can you forgive me?"
Su Qiao was not about to let things just pass.
He immediately clutched his chest, feigning deep sorrow, and said, "I cannot forgive someone who tried to harm me."
Lu Fugui sensed something was wrong and asked hesitantly, "What does Su Zhiqing want to do?"
Su Qiao took a breath and said, "My request is very simple. I hope everyone here can be a witness. I don't want to hear Dong Zhiqing say anything about us being friends again."
I believe I have never wronged Dong Zhiqing in the past, and I don't understand why you always say strange things and misinterpret my meaning. You've made a lot of enemies for me; I used to think you just wanted me to have only you as a friend.
It doesn't seem so now. You seem to hate me; you wish I were dead.
Today, let's talk face to face and clarify what I've done to wrong you.
You don't need to worry about me, and you don't need to hesitate.
I have a clear conscience and I believe I have never done anything illegal, disorderly, or that disrupts public order.
Why don't you just say it directly and let everyone judge?
A long string of words struck Dong Yiyi's heart directly.
[Warning! Warning! The female supporting character's popularity is rapidly increasing, and her chances of winning her over have decreased by 100.]
Dong Yiyi immediately panicked, but she couldn't find any bad things Su Qiao had done.
She can't very well say that she's the villainous supporting character who will harm her in the future, and that she's just collecting interest in advance.
[Insufficient strategy level; forced elimination procedure to be initiated...]
[System, give me another chance! Can I restart?]
The system seemed to hesitate for a moment before answering.
[Do you want to use 10 years of your lifespan to directly upgrade to Level 2 system and unlock the next stage of the mission?]
Yes, yes, yes!
Dong Yiyi agreed almost immediately.
As long as she's alive, there's still a chance. After all, she's the female lead, so losing 10 years of her lifespan isn't a big deal.
“Su Zhiqing, I don’t know who you believed, but that’s not what I meant. It’s all a misunderstanding.”
