1433 Vanity

Qiao Xi replied with a smile, “I don’t live in Mingzhu District. I just rent a house there to store my belongings. When the cultural relics restoration department asked me if I wanted to partic.i.p.ate in this event, that was the address I gave them. If you don’t believe me, you can investigate my information.

“Since you called me, it means that you know that the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor is still alive! Then why did you take my invitation and attend the event in my name? This was your first mistake.”

Qiao Xi’s voice was very light, but every word she said was clear. The gazes everyone shot at the He family were gradually filled with doubt.

Miss He calling Qiao Xi meant that she knew that the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor was still alive, but she still wanted to impersonate her. She was clearly doing it on purpose!

From the looks of it, the rumored He family was not as kind-hearted as they thought. Possessing someone else’s ident.i.ty was not something that kind people could do.

“Miss Qiao, you said that this was Miss He’s first mistake. What else did she do wrong?”

When she heard someone ask this, Qiao Xi revealed a meaningful smile. She looked at He Wenxian and asked with a faint smile, “Miss He, you should know better than me, right? Why don’t you tell me?”

He Wenxian met Qiao Xi’s gaze, and her heart could not help but tremble. A bad feeling surged out of her heart. She forced herself to calm down, and her voice trembled slightly. “Xi Xi, I don’t understand what you mean. A few days after I received the invitation, there was no news of the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor. Moreover, I didn’t know that you were the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor. I admit that I was greedy, so I pretended to be the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor, but I… I thought that the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor was no longer alive. Unexpectedly…”

As she spoke, He Wenxian suddenly choked and looked at Qiao Xi with guilt in her eyes. Tears fell like rain. “Xi Xi, I’m sorry. I apologize to you. I really didn’t mean to make things difficult for you.”

Qiao Xi sneered in her heart.

Not on purpose?

He Wenxian was quite smart. At this point, she could only admit that she had pretended to be the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor. It was much better than being found out.

If she admitted it now, she would only be condemned morally and wouldn’t be pursued legally. However, if the truth was exposed, she would go to jail!

Qiao Xi pretended to be surprised. “Miss He, you didn’t know? On the night you made your call, a few a.s.sa.s.sins came to my house in Mingzhu District and charged in. It’s just that they didn’t notice me but alarmed my neighbors and slashed someone. They’ve been arrested by the police and are still being tried at the police station!”

He Wenxian lowered her head, cold sweat dripping down her forehead. Her heart was beating violently as if it would jump out the next second.

He Weinian spoke first, “Miss Qiao, what does this have to do with Wenxian? Wenxian was muddle-headed and occupied your ident.i.ty, but she’s only in her 20s. It’s understandable that she couldn’t control herself in the face of such temptation, but she definitely wouldn’t have sent people to kill you!”

He Weinian frowned and said self-righteously, “Wenxian did something wrong and has already apologized to you. You can say that Wenxian is vain, but you can’t pin such a big crime on Wenxian. You should think about who you’ve offended!

“If you still suspect Wenxian, I can help you investigate this matter and find the mastermind. It can be considered as clearing Wenxian’s name!”

He Weinian’s words were righteous and dispelled some of the doubts in everyone’s hearts. After all, the He family was known for being philanthropists who had been doing charity for many years. Why would Miss He hire someone to kill someone?

Moreover, Chairman He was not afraid of the investigation, which meant that he was sure that this matter had nothing to do with Miss He. It was possible that it was really as Chairman He had said. Miss Qiao had offended someone, and they made a move on her.

“Miss Qiao, before we investigate the matter clearly, it’s better not to jump to conclusions!”

“That’s right! Miss He is gentle. How could she have hired a.s.sa.s.sins to kill someone?”

Qiao Xi was not surprised that there were people defending them. After all, the He family’s kind image had been deeply rooted in everyone’s hearts all these years. No one would easily believe that the He family was so vicious.

He Weinian was not afraid of an investigation because he had long been prepared. The a.s.sa.s.sins who escaped had already been dealt with. As for the people who were arrested by the police, He Weinian would threaten and bribe them to keep this secret. Even if the police suspected He Wenxian, they did not have any evidence.

“Since Chairman He said so, I must have misunderstood Miss He. I won’t investigate the matter of the a.s.sa.s.sins anymore. I’ll just pretend that Miss He was muddle-headed when she decided to impersonate me.”

He Wenxian’s expression softened a little, but the next second, she suddenly stiffened.

“But…” Qiao Xi spoke once more, and her eyes carried a wisp of ridicule.
