Shi Xiaobao frowned, then reached out and pressed the record button for Fang Tongtong, feeling that He Xiaohong's voice on the phone sounded a bit off.
Fang Tongtong didn't care about his little tricks at all, and said happily, "I have good news for you. Aren't you worried about your father's medical expenses? I found a charity for you. They are willing to sponsor all of your father's medical expenses."
"Really? Thank you, Sister Tongtong!" He Xiaohong was overjoyed.
"Of course it's true, but the charity needs to go through procedures and needs some materials, mainly your father's medical records from the hospital. Then the organization will contact you to find out more about the situation. You can send the materials over first."
There was a few seconds of silence on the phone, then the noise grew louder, and a few car horns could be faintly heard. Shi Xiaobao's eyes turned cold, and he found a place to stop, focusing on listening to Fang Tongtong's phone call.
"Sister Tongtong, my dad's documents are all back in our hometown, and it might be too late. Why don't we give this opportunity to someone else? I've found a part-time job, and the school has also given me a poverty subsidy, so we should be able to get by."
He Xiaohong stammered as she spoke, then suddenly changed her tone. Shi Xiaobao sneered silently; it would be strange if this girl wasn't up to something.
“It’s okay, just have your family send it over. Charities don’t have time limits. You’ve been worried about Dad’s health, haven’t you? Now that he can be completely cured, you can focus on your studies. I’ll come to see you at school in a while. Hangzhou isn’t far from here.”
Fang Tongtong didn't suspect anything and even tried to persuade He Xiaohong gently, worried that her part-time job would affect her studies.
In the end, He Xiaohong reluctantly accepted the funding and agreed to contact her family so that her parents could send over the necessary documents.
"Tongtong, call me before you come, and I'll pick you up," He Xiaohong instructed.
"Well, we'll talk about it later. I'm not sure when I'll be free. Let's just say you send the materials to me first, and I'll submit them for you."
"Okay, thank you, Sister Tongtong."
"Why are you being so polite with me? Go back to your studies."
Fang Tongtong hung up the phone and happily said to Shi Xiaobao, "The materials will be ready in a while. I knew Xiaohong wasn't that kind of person."
"The materials haven't arrived yet, so let's not make any definitive statements, but at least for now, this girl is lying."
Shi Xiaobao took Fang Tongtong's phone, played the recording of the call, listened to it again, and then asked, "Did you notice anything wrong?"
Fang Tongtong wasn't actually stupid, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to get into the police university. She was just too naive, having never experienced the wickedness of human nature since childhood. Now, after Shi Xiaobao specifically reminded her, she listened to the recording again carefully and indeed noticed something was wrong.
Why are there loudspeaker sounds coming from the school?
It was clearly on the street; He Xiaohong was lying.
Fang Tongtong frowned, feeling a tightness in her chest and a bit angry. She hated lying the most, especially lies from relatives and friends, which would break her heart.
He Xiaohong was a friend she had invested her emotions in, so she naturally couldn't accept He Xiaohong's lies.
Annoyed, Fang Tongtong wanted to call and ask for clarification, but Shi Xiaobao stopped her, saying, "No rush, let's wait for the materials to arrive."
Fang Tongtong, increasingly annoyed, said angrily, "When I have some free time, I'm going to Hangzhou Normal University to ask them face to face why they lied."
"Lies are naturally used to cover up things you don't want you to know, or to cover up lies you told before. One lie requires ten or even a hundred lies to cover it up, which is why lying becomes a habit," Shi Xiaobao said calmly.
