76 1.2.39: Who is She? II

Even though Qiang Luo was shocked, he didn't think illogically and harshly mocked, "Nice try, little girl. Unfortunately, Han Mi doesn't have a granddaughter that I don't know of."

Even though he was mocking her, Xiao Yunhua wasn't flustered in the least bit. She smiled, albeit her eyes weren't smiling at all. She looked at the old man like he was a full, "Hmm... And yet, she was accused of adultery? I think this is an odd situation, don't you?"

Qiang Luo finally blanched. He didn't expect for her to know about that issue many years ago. "You... You shouldn't know about such things. Little girls shouldn't stick their noses in businesses that don't belong to them." The caveat was evident, yet Xiao Yunhua only chuckled bitterly.

"You're right, who would believe me if I were to say Qiang Luo, the loyal butler of the Zhou family and Ling Xiu, the former best friend of Han Mi, plotted to murder her? Honestly, they're so noble that they would never dare to commit such an atrocity." The sarcasm and her taunts didn't escape Qiang Luo's ears and only made him panic more.

This was the darkest secret he carried, only with the current Zhou Eldress, so how did this young woman know? Could she really be the granddaughter of Han Mi? But the accusations against Han Mi were purely created from false evidence and imagination. In fact, when Qiang Luo had found Han Mi alive at the hospital, he was secretly relieved.

At least he didn't commit murder and wouldn't have to live with the guilt. Yet when the Zhou issued an order to prevent any hospital from treating the old woman, he was also relieved because she would die and his crimes would be forgotten.

Yet the day he saw Han Mi, he had also seen a young girl in a school uniform. She didn't look any older than fifteen or sixteen, and he had even informed Zhou Elder about that girl, Han Yunhua, but at that he didn't stop to consider that Han Mi shouldn't have a grandchild!

Yet here she stood!

Qiang Luo didn't have the chance to refute as she continued, "Besides, the bond that Han Mi and I share goes beyond blood. To think someone like you has a son like Qiang Yue, I am truly astonished..." She clenched her hands into fists, "But do not worry! Retribution will come soon, I promise you!"

"Little girl—"

"You may have escaped the clutches of Karma all these years, but I'll deliver it personally!"

A few minutes of silence and Xiao Yunhua was breathing hard. All the anger from watching Han Mi cast out erupted the moment she saw this man pretend to not know anything. She felt disgusted and once again, hated the injustice that Han Mi suffered through.

The quiet Qiang Luo smiled, his wrinkled eyes glinting with ridicule. "Evidence? Little girl, you should know, in the big world, go around accusing people without proof is a taboo. You could get accused of slander."

When she saw that he didn't show any remorse nor confessed, she pursed her lips and grabbed her purse, walking to the door. She didn't want to deal with Qiang Luo any longer because his attitude was truly repulsive.

One really couldn't reason with someone like Qiang Luo, who sold his real master off to die, so that Ling Xiu could be in the place.

As she turned the doorknob, she remembered that the door was still locked. She sighed in frustration, dialing Ling Qiu to open the door.

"Running away because you can't handle the truth?" This time Qiang Luo was continuously mocking her. He didn't know that Xiao Yunhua hadn't bothered with him any longer because she felt like she was dealing with an idiot. To him, he assumed that she was intimidated by his words.

"No, I can't stand being in the same place as a murderer. Also, I'll take your earlier warning into mind." She turned around and shot him a smile, as though she was kind enough to remind him: "But you should remember that I don't speak without no evidence. Also... I'll strike you where it'll hurt the most."

Surprisingly, Ling Qiu had opened the door, which made her suspicious, but she had already used up her mental capacity to deal with Qiang Luo.

She left Qiang Luo to ponder alone because he didn't know that she didn't really have any proof, but Xiao Yunhua was serious. If she couldn't find any evidence, then she didn't care if she had to exhaust all her current points to fabricate evidence to prove Han Mi's innocence.

After all, it was merely giving them a taste of their own medicine...
