Chapter 107 - If You Pretend Too Much, Your Face Will Produce a Louder Sound When Slapped (1/2)
Feng Xiang saw Su Ji hurry off to conduct the autopsy, and he couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. Doctor Su was definitely on his side. Otherwise, how could he have just ‘happened to pass by’?
The heavens were on his side!
“Sis, I’m really sorry, but Doctor Su is here. So the truth…” Feng Xiupei was no longer worried, but she continued to look at Feng Tianlan with guilty eyes. “No matter what the truth turns out to be, I won’t let you go to jail. I will bear the guilt and make sure you live on without having to worry about anything.”
Seeing Feng Xiupei’s realistic acting, Feng Tianlan smiled and said calmly, “The autopsy results aren’t out yet, so stop pretending like you’re going to take the rap for me and mislead the public into believing that I’m the killer.”
Given the earlier brawl with the old lady, it was obvious that this was all their doing to make sure that Feng Tianlan was found guilty. Given the little time they’d had to plan, this scheme was impressive.
“Sis,” Feng Xiupei cried sorrowfully, “did I do something wrong? You won’t acknowledge me no matter what I do?”
She was sure that Su Ji was on her side, so how would Feng Tianlan defend herself? In the public’s eyes, she was merely quibbling.
“My dear sister, if you pretend too much, your face will produce a louder sound when slapped.” Feng Tianlan smiled mockingly. But she couldn’t understand why Su Ji had glared at her like that earlier since she’d had no prior issues with him.
If he were really here to help Feng Xiupei and the gang, then she might be in some trouble.
Feng Xiupei was extremely cunning, and it was too tiring to talk to her. If she were as dumb as Feng Xiuyu, then the loopholes would have presented themselves way earlier, and she might have been slapped in the face several times by now.
Xu Jiayi saw the exchange from the sidelines then threw a look at the people standing near the door. Immediately, there was an outcry from the people.
“Second Miss is way too kind! For Feng Tianlan’s sake, she’s willing to take the blame and die. Such a beautiful and kind person is like a fairy among us. We can’t let her be a scapegoat like this.”
