Chapter 70 - Deliberately Push Down The Stairs
Chapter 70: Deliberately Push Down The Stairs
Gu Moling frowned. He did not know that Qiao Xi’s reputation in university was so bad. Since that was the case, he would look for a chance to tell Qiao Xi not to work in this university anymore. After all, the Qiao family did not lack money.
Qiao Rou sighed and said to the student, “No, my sister and I are biological sisters. Of course, I won’t be led astray by her. Speaking of which, I want to look for my sister to talk. After what happened yesterday, I still haven’t apologized to her. So many people were scolding her yesterday. I’m afraid she’ll take it too far… Lili, Brother Ling, can you come with me? I believe that if the few of us go together, we’ll definitely give my sister a lot of encouragement.
“I heard that the Meng family is going to display the high-end evening dress Time Flows that was designed by Gu Shan next week. I want to invite my sister to go over. After all, the dress they’re displaying is one that she designed. I believe she’ll feel a sense of accomplishment.”
Zhao Lili snorted. “Rou Rou, you’re really kind-hearted! Gu Shan… In any case, I absolutely don’t believe that Qiao Xi is Gu Shan. I think Zhou Guanjin and Qiao Xi are quite close. Maybe there’s something going on between them.”
No one had seen Gu Shan before, so they did not know what she looked like. Qiao Xi kept saying that she was Gu Shan. It was laughable that the students in the university really believed her. Of course, they believed that Qiao Xi was Gu Shan mainly because of Zhou Guanjin. After all, Zhou Guanjin’s status in the university was extraordinary.
Gu Moling nodded as well. He agreed with Zhao Lili’s words.
…
When Qiao Xi came out of the teaching building, she happened to see Qiao Rou holding Gu Moling’s hand and walking toward her. Qiao Xi frowned. Why were these two people always approaching her? Was there something wrong with them?
“Sister, there’s been a misunderstanding between us. Can we sit down and talk?”
Qiao Xi paid no attention to her and was just about to leave when her pupils suddenly constricted. The staircase from the third floor leading down to the second floor was filled with junk. At the top of the junk was a fruit knife with a very long blade. It was unknown who was pulling a prank and deliberately placed the blade on it. If someone were to fall down, they would get stabbed by the fruit knife!
How could there be such a safety hazard in the university? If the students were fooling around or accidentally slipped when they were walking after class, someone would die! Qiao Xi was about to get someone to deal with it when Qiao Rou walked over and blocked her way.
“Sister, I just want to say a few words to you. Don’t be so against me, okay? Lili and Brother Ling are waiting behind me. No matter what we say, they won’t hear us. I know you like designing, Sister. The Meng family is going to display Time Flows next week. Sister, you should be familiar with Time Flows, right?”
Qiao Xi’s eyes narrowed lightly. She did not know what Qiao Rou was planning.
Before she could open her mouth to ask, Qiao Rou suddenly slipped and widened her eyes in horror. “Ah! Sister…” Then, she stretched out her hands and pushed Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi smiled. Behind her was the fruit knife. Previously, she suspected that it was a prank pulled by a student, but now it seemed that someone with ulterior motives had placed it there. With a gentle push from Qiao Rou, she would definitely fall onto the fruit knife and get stabbed through the heart.
Qiao Rou seemed to imagine Qiao Xi lying on the floor covered in blood, and the corners of her mouth could not help but reveal a satisfied smile.
She really did not want this b*tch to live in this world anymore. She could not stand it when Qiao Xi stole her spotlight. She, Qiao Rou, was the only one who could shine in this world. She was the only one who could have the position of the Qiao family’s eldest daughter!
Even if she could not kill Qiao Xi by accident today, she had to let her know that going against her would only result in death.
Qiao Xi’s gaze was cold. She did not expect Qiao Rou to be so bold, but the most important thing now was not to get angry with Qiao Rou but to ensure that she survived in one piece. It would be hard for her to regain her balance while falling down the stairs. Even if the fruit knife was not waiting for her below, she reckoned that she would still break her bones from the fall and even have a concussion.
Qiao Rou stared at Qiao Xi with a mad look. She had fallen into a state of hysteria and did not see a thin line shoot out from Qiao Xi’s hand. The thin line seemed to have its own consciousness as it wrapped around the fruit knife below and tilted the tip of the knife slightly, allowing Qiao Xi to avoid the sharp blade without anyone noticing.
From Qiao Rou’s perspective, Qiao Xi had fallen down the stairs and it was not a light fall. However, she did not come into contact wit the fruit knife that was placed there earlier. Qiao Rou secretly gritted her teeth and cursed Qiao Xi for being too lucky, but she still had to continue acting. She sniffled and wiped the nonexistent tears at the corner of her eyes. She said in a panic, “Sister, why were you so careless? Are you okay? Did you hurt yourself from the fall? Don’t be afraid, I’ll come down and help you.”
Qiao Xi raised her head, her gaze icy-cold. She stood up and stretched her body before walking back upstairs.
Seeing her movements, a trace of pity flashed through Qiao Rou’s eyes. She failed to kill this b*tch but she still had to keep a gentle expression on her face. “Sister, I’ll send you to the infirmary.”
