Chapter 1520 - 1520 Punishment
1520 Punishment
The venue was silent for a moment. Qiao Xi blinked and said slowly, “So the person who reported me is Xu Ling! But just now, both Miss Kang and Miss Xu kept finding excuses to stop me from investigating. I think that Miss Kang is related to this matter!”
Kang Qingzhi’s tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice trembled. “Bright Moon, I’m sorry. I misunderstood you just now.”
Qiao Xi sneered in her heart. Kang Qingzhi apologized first. If she did not apologize for her actions just now, she would be the one who would be insensible.
Seeing that Qiao Xi did not speak for a long time, Kang Qingzhi’s tears surged out as her weak body swayed. “Miss Bright Moon, I admit that I misunderstood you. It’s because Ling Ling is my friend that I believed her words, but I’ve already apologized. I hope you can forgive me.”
Qiao Xi did not answer and looked at her with a playful expression.
Old Madam Kang’s sharp voice came from below the stage. “Qingzhi has already apologized. Aren’t you going to say anything?”
Kang Ru stared fixedly at Qiao Xi, his eyes filled with complicated emotions. Xi Xi was his daughter, so of course, his heart ached. However, this matter had nothing to do with Qingzhi. Qingzhi only misunderstood Xi Xi because she believed her friend’s words. She had already apologized, so why was Xi Xi still unwilling to let the matter go?
Kang Jichuan also said unhappily, “Bright Moon, the people who really wronged you are Du Ming and Xu Ling. What did Qingzhi do wrong? She just believed her friend’s words. This means that she values friendship. Moreover, she has already apologized. You don’t have to hold on to this small mistake. Since you’ve already found the person who reported you, don’t waste everyone’s time. Hurry up and compete!”
Everyone thought that this was the end of the matter, but Bright Moon suddenly looked up with a mocking smile. “Young Master Kang, although we’ve already found the person who reported me, the matter isn’t over yet. If one does something wrong, one will be punished!”
Kang Jichuan’s heart naturally ached for his biological sister, and he agreed with Qiao Xi’s actions. He nodded and said, “You’re right. One of them slandered you for seducing a judge, while the other took a photo to report you. They’re so vicious, so they should indeed be punished.”
Qiao Xi obtained a satisfactory answer and smiled brightly. Kang Jichuan had personally said that the person who framed her was vicious and should be punished.
Old Madam Kang no longer had the patience. She glared at Qiao Xi with resentment. “What nonsense are you spouting?! You slandered Qingzhi, so apologize to her immediately. Otherwise, don’t even think about walking out of this door today!”
Qiao Xi ignored her and looked at Zhao Xiang. Under Qiao Xi’s questioning and suppressive gaze, cold sweat trickled down Zhao Xiang’s forehead.
He looked up guiltily at Bright Moon, then at Twilight. No matter what, he could not offend Twilight. Moreover, Mr. Twilight said that as long as he told the truth, he would protect him. However, if Zhao Xiang did not tell the truth, Mr. Twilight would immediately make him pay the price!
Even if the Kang family really wanted to deal with him, they would not dare to do it brazenly. However, if Mr. Twilight wanted to deal with him, it was just a matter of words.
Zhao Xiang thought about it and cleared his throat. “Everyone, I… I’m not done.”
Everyone was stunned for a moment and did not understand what Zhao Xiang meant. He hurriedly said, “The person who reported Miss Bright Moon is Xu Ling…”
Kang Qingzhi stared fixedly at Zhao Xiang. Suddenly, she realized that something was wrong, and her heart thumped violently.
Under everyone’s puzzled gazes, Zhao Xiang subconsciously glanced at Kang Qingzhi. The next second, he said as if he was facing death, “It’s Xu Ling and Kang Qingzhi!”
Kang Qingzhi?
Everyone gasped and looked at Kang Qingzhi in unison.
At this moment, her face was pale, and her eyes were filled with horror. Her ears were buzzing as if she had instantly fallen to the bottom of the sea. Everything around her became blurry.
With her last bit of rationality, she forced herself to remain calm and stand on the stage.
Zhao Xiang! He actually exposed her!
“Say that again?” Old Madam Kang stood up abruptly, her sharp voice breaking the silence.
At this moment, this noble old madam did not care about her image at all. The muscles on her face were trembling, and her turbid eyes were filled with blood. Her voice was as ear-piercing and hoarse as a crow’s. “You bastard, you’re actually slandering Qingzhi? Do you want to die?! Do you know that Qingzhi is the daughter of the Kang family? If you offend our Kang family, I won’t let you have an easy time! I’ll make sure you can’t survive in the perfume world anymore!”
Old Madam Kang cursed like a shrew. She placed one hand on her waist and pointed at Zhao Xiang with the other. She wished she could rush over and slap him the next second.
