The little girl's mother was so frightened by Mo Tingchuan's imposing aura that she took a step back.
She mumbled something under her breath, it was hard to hear, but she didn't dare to say it out loud.
Mo Tingchuan grabbed Mingdai's wrist. "Let's go."
Mingdai was pulled forward by him, staggering.
She didn't want to leave.
If she leaves now, she'll have to take the blame whether she wants to or not.
"The matter isn't resolved yet, where are you going!"
Mingdai struggled, her words sharp and incisive.
Do you think I would flee to avoid punishment?
The words "fleeing from justice" seemed to take root in Mo Tingchuan's feet. The moment he stopped, Mingdai struggled to break free.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Mingdai firmly shook her head.
"I will not run away."
"You didn't do it, so why did you run away?"
Sister Le came over with a loud voice.
Mingdai felt a tightness in her chest and looked at Sister Le with surprise.
Sister Le walked briskly into the crowd.
"Ladies and gentlemen, in order to prevent well-meaning people from suffering unjust accusations, I have just reviewed all the videos from today's meeting."
Le Jie projected the message directly onto the screen inside the venue.
The three women were confused, but their expressions were already very tense.
Mo Tingchuan frowned and remained silent, his gaze fixed on the projected screen.
Everyone is hoping for a new twist.
Sister Le reached out and grasped Mingdai's cold little hand, so tightly that Mingdai's hand hurt a little, and Mingdai suddenly wanted to cry.
Although she had misjudged Mo Tingchuan, her friend Sister Le always stood by her side.
The video feed is much clearer than the previous one.
The angle is taken from the section at the main entrance.
When Qin Weiwei personally handed the chocolate to the little girl's mother, Mingdai was speechless.
She racked her brains and actually forgot about this person's existence.
Since Mo Tingchuan and she broke off relations, Qin Weiwei had been quiet all along. Unexpectedly, this sudden move was aimed at ruining her reputation.
"who is she?"
Those who saw the screen being projected raised questions.
"Does Sister Le know this person?"
Qin Weiwei rarely makes public appearances, and Mo Tingchuan doesn't dare to openly bring her out to meet people, so there are really not many people in the circle who know Qin Weiwei.
Why would she harm Sister Le's child?
"No, this is clearly a frame-up!"
"Yes! This woman is trying to frame Mingdai."
Everyone looked at Mingdai, their expressions incredibly complex.
Sister Le didn't recognize Qin Weiwei, so she could only ask Mingdai, "Who is she?"
Mingdai didn't speak, but stared straight at Mo Tingchuan.
Mo Tingchuan had initially thought it was his mother and sister, but why was it Qin Weiwei?
No!
Qin Weiwei didn't have that kind of courage.
She has always been unassuming and well-behaved; she has no such scheming mind.
"Does Mr. Mo know this woman?"
Le Jie sensed something was wrong from Mo Tingchuan's expression and Ming Dai's silence.
Mo Tingchuan couldn't decide whether to shake his head or admit it.
"Sister Le".
Mingdai pointed to the three women who were already trying to escape.
"They should know best."
"Is this an attempt to escape?"
The crowd automatically blocked the three women who had already chosen a direction and were about to run away.
Seeing that she couldn't escape, the little girl's mother could only turn around and frantically try to explain herself.
"Sister Le, I don't know what happened. I... I... Yes, that's right. My friend gave me the chocolate, but I don't know why it ended up in Mingdai's bag. I didn't give the chocolate to Xiangxiang either. I really don't know why this happened."
“Even if I have chocolate, that doesn’t prove that I gave it to Xiangxiang.”
"You're still trying to deny it when things come to a head!"
Sister Le was furious.
"Identical chocolates, would you believe it's a coincidence?"
"But I really didn't..."
"Auntie, you're lying."
A little boy came running up from the end of the corridor, panting. He looked like he had just woken up; his hair was messy, and his big eyes were dark and innocent.
He ran up to Sister Le and hugged her leg tightly.
“Auntie, I put the chocolate in that auntie’s bag, but it wasn’t my idea to put it there. She made me put it there.”
The little girl's mother shot herself in the foot.
She had her daughter identify Mingdai, and now someone else is identifying her in the same way.
The little boy had a valid reason.
"This auntie gave me some candy and asked me to secretly put chocolate in that auntie's bag. She said that the auntie had low blood sugar and needed to replenish her energy when she got tired from playing soccer. I had seen that auntie looking unwell before, and I wanted to make her feel better."
The little boy started crying loudly, feeling wronged.
Sister Le hugged the little boy and then played another surveillance video.
The venue was bustling with people, but in an inconspicuous corner, the surveillance camera still captured the little girl's mother stuffing chocolate into the piece of cake that Xiangxiang had taken from Mingdai.
It seemed that Xiangxiang wanted to find a companion to eat with, which is why he put the cake on the small table, giving the little girl's mother an opportunity.
The truth has come to light.
Everyone was quite shocked.
They all gasped and stared wide-eyed.
Mingdai and Sister Le exchanged glances.
Sister Le felt both distressed and angry.
Mingdai shook her head with red eyes; only she knew the depth of her heartache.
Everyone present felt sorry for Mingdai and vowed to severely punish the three women who spread rumors, caused accidents, and intentionally harmed children.
"Call the police! This is outrageous! It's utterly lawless in broad daylight!"
"They're worse than pigs and dogs to risk a child's life to frame Mingdai."
