Chapter 24 Three Men Make a Tiger



With witnesses present, Cao Fengjiao indeed failed to find Qin Bai's food, which made her face turn very pale.

She didn't want to distribute food to Qin Bai, after all, she and Qin Bai had a grudge against each other.

“Committee Member Cao, I have a few packs of spoiled compressed biscuits at home. They were left over a long time ago. Anyway, I didn’t tell him anything better, so I’ll use those instead. What do you think?”

"There are so many people here. He doesn't know anyone in the neighborhood, so no one will speak up for him."

The words of one of her lackeys made Cao Fengjiao's eyes light up.

Yes, I gave you compressed biscuits. Whether those biscuits are good or bad is none of my business.

So she secretly sent her henchman to get some spoiled compressed biscuits, while she stalled for time.

After he brought the compressed biscuits back, Cao Fengjiao secretly took them and then handed them to Qin Bai with an impatient expression.

"Take it, take it."

Qin Bai sensed something was wrong as soon as he got his hands on it.

The compressed biscuits were vacuum-packed, but the package he received was already bulging.

Upon closer inspection, he realized the production date was incorrect; it was several years ago!

It's obvious that these aren't the compressed biscuits from the box.

He had just noticed something strange; Cao Fengjiao was talking to someone, and it turned out she was secretly handing her compressed biscuits.

bump!

Qin Bai threw the compressed biscuits on the ground, his face cold: "Cao Fengjiao, how could you do something like this? Giving me expired and spoiled compressed biscuits, are you trying to murder me?!"

Qin Bai's words surprised everyone around him. Some people came closer to take a closer look and indeed found something amiss.

Just as this man was about to speak, someone next to him tugged at him and whispered, "That man is Qin Bai."

"Who is Qin Bai? Oh, I remember now, isn't he the guy who used a crossbow to injure people?"

After everyone realized that Cao Fengjiao was deliberately targeting Qin Bai, no one else spoke up.

Thanks to Cao Fengjiao's deliberate manipulation, Qin Bai's reputation in the neighborhood has been completely ruined.

She made no mention of what she and the others had done, placing all the blame on Qin Bai. In her words, Qin Bai was the one who took the initiative, and they were merely the victims.

Three men can make a tiger; many voices can melt metal.

The power of public opinion can sometimes influence many people.

Qin Bai didn't care at all and stood there calmly.

He wasn't planning on coming to collect food, as he had more than he could eat.

But if he hadn't gotten involved in this matter, how could he have exposed Cao Fengjiao's embezzlement later on?

Besides, he also wanted to see what other tricks Cao Fengjiao had up her sleeve.

By the way, in yesterday's argument in the group chat, the woman ultimately won.

Therefore, women receive half again as much food as men!

This left many men feeling somewhat resentful when they received their food.

Qin Bai, who witnessed this scene, couldn't hide the smile on his face.

This incident was just a trigger; future corruption cases would completely shatter the fragile stability the community was maintaining.

Since then, everyone in the neighborhood has been on edge, no one dares to trust anyone easily, and no one dares to leave their home easily.

It was precisely because of the chaotic situation that the first person in the community died!

"What murder? What nonsense are you spouting? I clearly gave you food, and you're saying I'm wrong? Is there anyone like you?"

Cao Fengjiao looked aggrieved, but given her appearance, this only made her look ugly.

Fortunately, she was wearing a thick mask, otherwise Qin Bai felt he would have thrown up.

"Qin Bai, don't go too far. These compressed biscuits were issued by the government. You say there's something wrong with the biscuits? Do you think the government would harm you?"

A middle-aged man with an upright appearance stepped forward and spoke to Qin Bai.

"You can check the date and packaging yourself."

Qin Bai kicked the compressed biscuits on the ground. The other person picked them up and immediately realized that they were completely different from the food they had been given.

The middle-aged man wasn't stupid; he immediately realized that Cao Fengjiao was deliberately messing with Qin Bai. It was really troublesome that he had gotten involved in this matter.

But he has already stepped forward, and now he can only make one choice: to stand with Cao Fengjiao or with Qin Bai.

After a mere second of thought, he made a choice.

"I checked carefully, the date is fine, and the packaging is normal."

The middle-aged man is lying through his teeth.

Qin Bai could tell that this person had chosen to side with Cao Fengjiao, and he wasn't surprised at all.

These days, everyone seeks advantage and avoids harm, especially since the social system hasn't collapsed yet; they have to do so.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that the country's collapse was not far off.

The real low temperatures are yet to come!

"Oh!"

Qin Bai chuckled but didn't say anything.

But the middle-aged man felt that his face was already red, only it was hidden by the mask.

"Is there anyone else who wants to verify this?"

Qin Bai looked around, but no one spoke up. They could all see that Cao Fengjiao was deliberately messing with Qin Bai.

Cao Fengjiao was secretly pleased. Just as her subordinates had said, even if someone saw through it, no one would side with Qin Bai.

Because Qin Bai's reputation in the neighborhood had long been completely ruined.

But she's a big shot in the neighborhood, a member of the homeowners' committee!

A simple comparison will tell you who you should help.

Just then, a figure stepped forward.

"I can guarantee that what Qin Bai said is true; these compressed biscuits are completely spoiled!"

The person speaking was Lin Qin.

Qiao Lianyi took the food back, but Lin Qin came down alone.

She saw Qin Bai's isolated and helpless state, and instead of feeling pity, she thought of something.

If she were to stand up for Qin Bai at this moment, Qin Bai would definitely be very grateful to her. As long as she put in a little more effort, winning over Qin Bai would be no problem at all!

Even at this point, Lin Qin did not forget the five million that Qin Bai had!

In the eyes of most people, this disaster is only temporary, and they are waiting for it to pass so they can go back to their old lives.

But only Qin Bai knew that this disaster was not going to end.

Cao Fengjiao looked at Lin Qin with a cold gaze. This brat actually dared to cause trouble. She's asking for death!

Lin Qin was startled by Cao Fengjiao's gaze, but still said, "Sister Cao must have taken the wrong biscuit. Everyone makes mistakes, it's normal, isn't it?"

Lin Qin's words gave Cao Fengjiao a way out.

Cao Fengjiao could only pinch her nose, get Qin Bai a new pack of compressed biscuits, and then she didn't want to see him again.
