Chapter 1745 - 1745 Couldn’t Be Bullied
Seeing that Lin Xiruo was sick, this group of people had caused a lot of trouble.
Bai Ling stood here flirtatiously tonight and looked at He Jiang affectionately. Did she really think that Lin Xiruo could not tell?
“Since it’s related to Xiao Xiaobai, Xiao Bai, come over and tell me about it.” Lin Xiruo’s aura was very strong. Her current appearance made many people a little afraid.
If it weren’t for this, no one would have known that she had recovered so well!
Xiao Xiaobai walked over and said softly, “Aunt, Davis wanted to get to know Zhiqin just now. I knew that Zhiqin didn’t know English, and Davis didn’t know S Country’s language, so I facilitated their conversation. I didn’t say anything else.”
“You didn’t say anything else?” Lin Xiruo asked seriously.
“I really didn’t say anything. Zhiqin is the host, and Davis is a guest. If the host doesn’t respond at all, it’ll be the He family’s loss of face, so I helped introduce them to each other. I really didn’t say anything else,” Xiao Xiaobai said pitifully.
When the others heard this, they understood. It turned out that Xu Zhiqin did not even know English!
He Consortium was rooted in the United States. Most of their businesses required them to converse in foreign languages. How could Xu Zhiqin dream of marrying He Xuyan if she didn’t even know English?
Xiao Xiaobai continued, “I don’t know why they did all this.”
The more Xiao Xiaobai said that she didn’t know, the more everyone let their imaginations run wild. Xu Zhiqin didn’t know English, and Davis didn’t know the language of S Country, but Xu Zhiqin still accepted Davis’ money. It could be seen that Xu Zhiqin had done this a lot.
It was even possible that Xu Zhiqin and Davis were flirting with each other.
Sometimes, the things between men and women did not need to be communicated through words.
Body language alone was enough to make some deals.
Xu Zhiqin’s face flushed red. “Miss Xiao, how can you say that? Didn’t you say just now that Davis wanted to drink with me? I thought it was because he wanted to talk to me about work, so I asked him to meet me during the day in the future.
“After that, you said that he wanted to have my contact details, so I gave him my number. When I received the money later, I firmly refused. But you were the one who said that this was standard etiquette. I was worried that I would be rude to a guest of the He family, so I accepted the money.
“Why are you saying that you don’t know anything now?”
There were no surveillance cameras here, let alone voice recorders.
Therefore, Xiao Xiaobai was fearless. “Zhiqin, how can you say that? I really don’t know about this.
“I’m also very surprised to hear that the etiquette when meeting people is to receive such a big sum of money.
“I only introduced you to each other and casually said a few words. You can’t blame me for this!”
Although Bai Jinhua was afraid of Lin Xiruo and did not want to offend He Xuyan, this matter concerned her daughter’s innocence. She could not ignore it. She stood up and said, “Miss Xu, our Xiaobai has no grudge against you. How can you slander her like this? Bear the responsibility for what you did. Don’t blame everything on Xiaobai after the matter is exposed! Our Xiaobai can’t afford to bear so much negative stigma!”
Xiao Xiaobai also looked distressed as if she had suffered a huge injustice. She wrinkled her nose aggrievedly.
Bai Ling comforted her niece and said to Lin Xiruo, “Madam He, no matter what, Miss Xu is the one who gave her number to Davis, and she’s also the one who received the money. This is evidence. If our Xiaobai did something, you have to bring out the evidence for that too, right?”
Everyone felt that what Bai Jinhua and Bai Ling said made sense.
Xu Zhiqin was the one who did all those things. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be accused.
Moreover, her phone was also in her hand. It was impossible for someone to deliberately use her phone to contact Davis, right?
Xu Zhiqin must have deliberately seduced Davis, but because of the language barrier, there was a conflict and everyone knew about it. That was why she pushed the blame on Xiao Xiaobai and tried to wash her hands clean of it.
Bai Jinhua said indignantly, “Although our Bai and Xiao families aren’t rich, it’s impossible for our daughters to be bullied. If you can produce evidence, then show it! But if you can’t, then even if we’re facing He Consortium, we can only use an egg to crack this stone!”
He Jiang had walked to Lin Xiruo’s side at some point. Bai Ling’s eyes could not help but be attracted to him.
Back then, when Lin Xiruo was sick, Bai Ling had really embarrassed herself in front of He Jiang. Even though she had the support of the Bai, Xiao, and Wei families, she did not manage to attract his attention at all.
She was only in her early 40s now and was younger than Lin Xiruo. She still had such delusions in her heart and was unwilling to live a mediocre life. She had gotten married twice and divorced twice. Her heart was still with He Jiang.
She stared intently at He Jiang and said, “Mr. He, you’re the head of He Consortium. I’m sure you’ll give us a reasonable explanation!”
He Jiang did not look at her but said to Lin Xiruo, “Xiruo, what do you plan to do?”
From the looks of it, no matter how Lin Xiruo dealt with it, he was on her side.
On the other hand, Lin Xiruo was obviously biased toward Xu Zhiqin. Everyone could not help but feel that it was unfair.
However, He Consortium was a big company, so what if it was unfair?
Lin Xiruo looked at Xu Zhiqin calmly and asked, “Zhiqin, do you have any evidence of what Xiao Xiaobai did and said just now?”
They couldn’t get an answer from Davis. He was just obsessed with Xu Zhiqin, but he wasn’t involved in the matter at all.
Xu Zhiqin seemed to be deep in thought.
Bai Ling couldn’t help but say, “Of course, the dignified He family can do whatever they want in this matter. No matter what the outcome is, we can only accept it. But I believe that justice is in the hearts of people. We have nothing to fear!”
Xu Zhiqin smiled coldly. No wonder the Bai family was so shameless. Back then, they even dared to seduce He Jiang in front of Lin Xiruo!
Xu Zhiqin said, “What if it’s really proven that Xiao Xiaobai deliberately misled Davis and me?”
aBai Ling said, “It’s become obvious that some people really don’t like us sisters. They don’t even like our children, so they’re deliberately treating us like this. Well, we have nothing to say!”
