Chapter 69 From now on, we are no longer sisters
It was a can of milk powder that rolled to Xie Jiaojiao's feet.
Xie Jiaojiao bent down to pick up the milk powder can, her fingertips trembling slightly.
She had suspected it just now, but she didn't expose her cousin. In the end, she still had a glimmer of hope in her heart, and she didn't want to believe that everything her cousin who had protected and loved her since she was a child was fake.
The smell of milk powder is wrong.
The white milk stains on the mouth could also be something else.
But the evidence is here, there's nothing to argue with.
Her cousin was lying to her, she had been lying to her all along!
At this moment, Jiang Xiu's words in the dream echoed in my ears.
All the things she chased after to please Su Yu ended up in her cousin's hands.
Xie Jiaojiao covered her aching heart, her clear and bright eyes were tinged with anger, and she asked in a cold voice.
"Cousin, isn't this the milk powder I gave to Su Zhiqing? Why is it here with you?"
"You've been lying to me all along, haven't you? You've been secretly dating Su Zhiqing for a long time."
Liu Niannian, who was holding her ankle and gritting her teeth in pain, immediately became clear-headed when she heard Xie Jiaojiao's words and turned her head to look over.
When she saw the can of milk powder in Xie Jiaojiao's hand, a trace of panic appeared visibly on her innocent little white flower face.
"Jiaojiao, listen to my explanation. Things are not what you think."
"Cousin definitely didn't lie to you. Su Zhiqing and I are not in a relationship." Liu Niannian patted her chest and guaranteed.
"What does that look like?" Xie Jiaojiao was full of disbelief. "Why did the milk powder I gave to Su Zhiqing end up here with you?"
"If you weren't a couple, why would Su Zhiqing give you something as rare as milk powder?"
"Don't tell me you bought this with your own money. You don't even have a foreign exchange receipt. And don't tell me another educated youth gave it to you. I'm the only one in the educated youth camp who has milk powder."
The sudden change and Xie Jiaojiao's sharp questions caught Liu Niannian off guard.
Cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and her mind was working at full speed to think of a way to deal with the situation.
Soon, she had an idea.
"Jiaojiao, didn't you ask Su Zhiqing for the debt this morning? Su Zhiqing said he would return it to you."
"Cousin, do you take me for a fool?"
"Jiaojiao, how can you say that to your cousin? You know how your cousin has treated you since you were little, don't you?"
Liu Niannian pouted, feeling very aggrieved.
"At noon, my cousin stopped you because she wanted to tell you this, but you said you were busy and ignored her."
Xie Jiaojiao is a person who trusts someone 100%. But at the same time, once you betray her trust or deceive her once, she will overturn all trust. She is like Sherlock Holmes, with a terrifying rationality.
"Cousin, didn't you just cut ties with Su Zhiqing this morning? Su Zhiqing is so concerned about his reputation, why would he ask you for help?"
This was the first time Liu Niannian had seen Xie Jiaojiao so aggressive.
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she still stubbornly denied it.
"Jiaojiao, cousin doesn't know why Su Zhiqing gave me the things. Maybe it was just a coincidence."
"But, cousin, I will never date Su Zhiqing knowing that you like him."
Liu Niannian covered her chest and spoke with tears in her eyes, her face full of sadness and despair of being questioned.
But even so, she still couldn't bear to blame Xie Jiaojiao for being ignorant. She looked at Xie Jiaojiao with a pair of tolerant eyes and affection.
"Jiaojiao, we've been sisters for so many years, don't you still trust your cousin?"
Xie Jiaojiao felt extremely disappointed when she saw Liu Niannian, who still refused to admit it.
She sneered, "I didn't know that when Su Zhiqing returned my things, my cousin acted like a master and drank with gusto."
Liu Niannian paused in her crying action, covering her face.
What's the meaning?
How did Xie Jiaojiao know that she drank milk powder?
"Cousin, wipe your mouth clean next time."
Liu Niannian subconsciously touched her mouth, and when she felt the wetness, she secretly said that something was wrong.
"Jiaojiao, I just told you that I'm not feeling well, and you didn't let me drink milk powder. I had no choice but to open the milk powder can and make a cup of milk powder."
"But my cousin assures me that this is really the milk powder that Su Zhiqing paid off his debt. If you don't believe me, we can go and confront Su Zhiqing."
"You lied to me?" Xie Jiaojiao became even more angry.
"You two are already secretly dating, and you're still confronting each other? I can't let you two talk nonsense."
“Jiaojiao…”
"Shut up!"
As soon as Liu Niannian opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Xie Jiaojiao in a harsh voice.
"Cousin, if you like Su Zhiqing and want to date him, please tell me. Although I'm sad, I won't continue to pester you.
"But you just didn't tell me. You looked at me like a fool, chasing after Su Zhiqing, giving him lots of things, and you watched me make a fool of myself behind my back, then turned around and pocketed the things."
Xie Jiaojiao felt aggrieved, with mist in her eyes.
"Cousin, you are in our Xie family. How have I ever wronged you? Why are you fooling me like this?"
I'm sorry for everything!
If my aunt hadn't snatched the marriage that originally belonged to my mother, why would she be suffering down there?
She should have been the most beloved girl of the three generations of the Xie family!
Xie Jiaojiao took away everything from her!
The deeper the hatred in Liu Niannian's heart, the harder she cried.
"Jiaojiao, in your eyes, is my cousin so unbearable?"
Even though she was questioning him, Liu Niannian still couldn't bear to yell at Xie Jiaojiao, as her thin body was trembling violently.
If there were an outsider here, he would probably feel distressed for Liu Niannian, who was suspected and questioned by her sister but still chose to tolerate her.
Unfortunately, there are only Liu Niannian and Xie Jiaojiao here, and Xie Jiaojiao is a person with a strong sense of perception, so she cannot understand the deep meaning of Liu Niannian's sad drama.
"It's not that my eyes are unbearable, but what you did makes it impossible for me to believe that you are the cousin who has always been gentle and caring for me."
Xie Jiaojiao held back the tears in her eyes and hardened her heart: "From now on, we are no longer sisters."
"Jiaojiao."
Liu Niannian was shocked. She didn't expect that Xie Jiaojiao would be so cruel just for drinking a cup of milk powder.
Xie Jiaojiao is not cruel. She has always been clear about right and wrong and will not tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes.
"Jiaojiao, you forgot, when you were a child..."
Liu Niannian tried to bring up the good times of her childhood to dissuade Xie Jiaojiao from her thoughts, but was interrupted by her forcefully.
"Okay, no need to say more."
"Liu Zhiqing, please move the things away quickly. I'm tired and need to rest."
Looking at Xie Jiaojiao lying on the bed with her back to her, Liu Niannian bit her rosy lips until they turned white.
She didn't understand how things suddenly turned out like this, but she knew that the current situation was not in her favor, and Xie Jiaojiao was obviously angry and refused to communicate.
After thinking it over, Liu Niannian took a deep breath and said, "Jiaojiao, you misunderstood. Things are really not what you imagined. You are angry now. I will explain it to you later."
Xie Jiaojiao said solemnly, word by word: "No need to explain, you are no longer my cousin, please call me Xie Zhiqing."
Liu Niannian suddenly laughed.
