Chapter 89 Undercurrent

Qi Chunhui stole money?

Yun Qiao was quite surprised to hear such words.

After all, she had been warned by the company the last time she committed a crime. If she dared to cause trouble again, the company would not let her off lightly. She would be kicked out of the company or sent to a labor camp. There would be no leniency.

It's only been a short time, how dare she do that!

Even if a normal person pretends to be honest, it would take him a year or two.

Yun Qiao felt a little strange and asked, "Is the evidence conclusive?"

Zheng Wenjing shook her head: "There's no evidence at all. It's just like when Qi Chunhui slandered you last time. It's all based on 'self-perception'."

"Did she steal it?"

"Who knows?" Zheng Wenjing said, "She herself said she didn't steal, but no one else believed her."

"The main reason is that Qi Chunhui has a history of offending, and Chen Cuizhi happened to be alone in the dormitory when she lost the money. Who else could she suspect?" Zheng Wenjing sighed and said, "But I think it's unlikely that Qi Chunhui was the one who stole the money. Chen Cuizhi is probably suspecting the wrong person."

Yun Qiao: "Why do you say that?"

"You're not familiar with Qi Chunhui, so you don't know her personality. But I grew up with her, so I do know her."

Zheng Wenjing said: "My cousin is not a good person. She bullied me when I was little, and when she grew up, she became a popular young star, fighting this and that and even smashing other people's houses. She is so proud in her heart. Even in this new society, she still thinks she is a relative of the emperor and a noble princess.

She even looked down on workers, thinking they were inferior people who resorted to brute force. She also looked down on hooligans who idled around and stole things, thinking they were all low-class people. Someone like her would never steal money.

Yun Qiao understood. "She's self-righteous, thinking she's superior, and that no one else can compare to her. As a superior person, she can't possibly lower her head and steal from the lower class, right?"

Zheng Wenjing uttered an "uh" and hesitated, "I guess so. She's a rather twisted person anyway."

"She deserves it," Yun Qiao said. "If she hadn't slandered me last time, Chen Cuizhi would have suspected her when she lost the money."

"That's true." Zheng Wenjing still felt a little sorry for her cousin.

Even though they had been quarreling for more than ten years, they had grown up together after all. If she was proven guilty of stealing money this time, she would definitely be kicked out of the Fifth Company and sent to labor reform, and her future would be ruined.

Zheng Wenjing told Yun Qiao her thoughts in frustration.

Yun Qiao was silent for a moment before saying, "This can only mean that evil deeds will bring evil consequences. She probably never imagined that the boomerang she threw out would circle outside and eventually pierce herself."

"Why."

Zheng Wenjing sighed heavily. "It seems that one should not have bad intentions! If one has a bad intention, it might lead to a series of bad things in the future."

Yun Qiao said, "So, it still goes like this: if you behave properly, you won't be afraid even if bad things come knocking on your door."

Be open and honest and have no regrets.

Do things conscientiously and do not let others down.

These two short sentences are the principles of life that Yun Qiao has been exposed to since he was a child in the Ye family.

Her elders set the example, and she followed suit for two lifetimes.

The money-stealing farce next door lasted until midnight.

Qi Chunhui was indeed innocent and wrongly accused this time. She did not steal any money, so she dared to take the initiative to turn out all her personal belongings and accept everyone's inspection.

In the end, he truly proved himself innocent.

Apart from the salary she received some time ago and the dozen or so yuan she brought from home, she did not have any money of unknown origin.

Her suspicion was cleared, but Chen Cuizhi could not accept it because she had indeed lost the money.

Her family was poor, and she came to Beidahuang for the thirty-something yuan a month. Her family had already agreed that she had to send half of her monthly salary back home to support her younger siblings.

So Chen Cuizhi sent most of her 41 yuan salary back to her hometown the next day after she received it, leaving only 16 yuan for herself to eat.

But this damn thief stole all the sixteen dollars and left her with no chance of survival.

Chen Cuizhi was almost going crazy.

"If it wasn't Qi Chunhui, then who stole my money?"

"My money was wrapped in my little dress and hidden away at the bottom of my suitcase. If it weren't for someone living in the same house, who would have known I hid the money in my clothes? She must have come straight for my money. My suitcase is still in good shape, only the money is gone."

"Director Jiang, you have no idea how hard my life was! I was so poor I couldn't even afford to buy a lock! People were asking Comrade Ye to buy frostbite cream, but I couldn't bear to buy it even though my hands were nearly frozen. All I could do every day was grab a handful of snow and rub it on my fingers."

"That damn thief had to steal from anyone else but my food money!!"

"You damned thief, you never do good things, why don't you die!"

She pestered Director Jiang Ling and cried and made a fuss, crying so hard that she couldn't even stand steadily.

Jiang Ling couldn't bear to see this, so she took out one dollar from her own pocket and gave it to her as her food money for the next two days. She helped her up and advised her to think positively. After all, the money was lost and crying would not bring it back.

How could Chen Cuizhi let it go?

That’s sixteen dollars! ! Her entire month’s worth of food! !

So after searching Qi Chunhui, she begged Jiang Ling to search everyone's belongings in the room where she lived. She felt that the thief must be in their own room.

Since it wasn't in her room, it was impossible to know where she kept the money.
