In Lin Mengya's eyes, there was only one word to describe Pei Qianji — fake!
Although Pei Qianji looked kind, his eyes were cold, and his attitude towards her was a little strange. He seemed to be vigilant and scrutinizing.
But he had to pretend to be kind to her because he was worried about something.
She was worried about Pei Qianji. Did he put on such a show just for her?
After thinking for a while, she secretly denied this idea in her heart.
It was not likely.
At least Pei Qianji had no reason to be afraid of her or flatter her.
Moreover, Pei Qianji could secretly put her in her place, which was enough to prove this point.
Lin Mengya pretended to glance at all the people present casually.
The two old masters of the Zhao Family could not wait to curry favor with the Pei Family. Apart from herself, there was only Zhao Xiaodie left.
That was even more impossible.
In the end, Lin Mengya could put her heart at ease.
No matter what Pei Qianji's purpose was, she was destined to get involved in this mess today.
Moreover, she had never been qualified to stay out of it.
"You don't have to drink tea. I'm here at the request of Elder Zhao Yixuan's wife to be responsible for Zhao Xiaodie's safety.
Since Master Pei has something to ask, please ask quickly. It's not easy for a weak girl to cooperate with us. Elder Pei, please be merciful and don't frighten her. "
As soon as she spoke, she turned the interrogation into an inquiry.
There was a big difference between the two. She directly turned Zhao Xiaodie from a "suspect" to a "related person".
Pei Qianji was a little unhappy.
Whether in the Pei Family or in other families, he had never seen such an arrogant and bold woman.
And according to a certain news, this woman was likely to marry the head of the Yue Zheng Family and become the hostess of the Yue Zheng Family.
However, with such a domineering temperament, once she became the winner of the harem, not to mention whether she could win a man's heart, even for the sake of her sky-high dowry, the head of the Yue Zheng family would definitely turn a blind eye to her.
But his daughter would have to work for her and even be suppressed by her.
At the thought that his plan was about to be destroyed, Pei Qianji could not help but be cruel to Gong Ya.
He was determined to obtain the Gong Family, but this woman could never surpass his daughter!
"It seems that Master Gong is very close to Zhao Xiaodie?"
Pei Qianji said casually.
But Lin Mengya immediately denied it.
"You can't say that. My relationship with her is just a normal doctor-patient relationship.
But as the saying goes, a doctor has the heart of a parent. Especially for someone like me who is skilled in medicine and responsible, my relationship with the patient must be very harmonious.
But that's all. If I insist on talking about other things, then it'll be meaningless. Don't tell me that I have to take care of her for the rest of my life after treating her for a while? "
Pei Qianji didn't know what to say next because of her retort.
He had deliberately wanted to tie her to Zhao Xiaodie just now.
In this way, as long as Zhao Xiaodie was proven guilty, she could be dragged into this.
However, this woman's mouth was simply too powerful.
If he really did that, it would seem especially far-fetched. At the very least, it wouldn't be so seamless.
He paused for a moment before saying with a smile, "What Patriarch Gong said is correct. But I don't know Zhao Xiaodie. Can I trouble you to introduce her to me? "
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and said, "As a third party, it's difficult for me to say something biased.
After all, I knew Zhao Xiaodie first, so what I said couldn't be considered fair.
How about this, Patriarch Pei, ask Zhao Xiaodie yourself. It's better to invite the victim's family out and let them confront each other face to face. In this way, we can know who is telling the truth and who is lying.
My and Patriarch Pei's time and energy will not be in vain. "
Pei Qianji pretended to think for a moment before nodding.
But in his heart, he was laughing at her for being too young and confident.
He had already asked someone to instruct Xue Lanfang and even used some means to manipulate her, in order to make Zhao Xiaodie unable to get away with the crime.
But he didn't expect that Gong Ya was stupid enough to let the two confront each other.
Oh, he wanted to see what kind of expression Gong Ya would have if Zhao Xiaodie really couldn't explain herself!
After a while, a neatly dressed girl with an evasive look was brought in.
Seeing so many people in the room, she almost turned around and ran away.
Lin Mengya glanced at her.
Her clothes didn't fit her well, probably because the woman was too thin and weak.
And her hair was combed into a messy bun. Most importantly, there was a long scar on the woman's face, running from her forehead to her mouth.
Judging from the condition of the wound, it shouldn't have been long. Although it wasn't very deep, it might leave a shallow scar if it wasn't taken good care of.
She raised her eyebrows slightly.
Before coming here, she had a preliminary understanding of Xue Fangfei through Zhao Xiaodie and the people around her.
In general, she was a rather scheming, lazy, self-righteous, and strong-willed girl.
And she was especially good at pleasing her aunt, who was Zhao Xiaodie's mother-in-law.
Although Zhao Yongcai didn't have any romantic feelings for her, he treated her well and only treated her as his sister.
But Xue Lanfang wasn't satisfied.
At first, she wanted to be her cousin's concubine. Later, when she found that Zhao Xiaodie was too soft, she gradually became ambitious.
It could be said that this girl "contributed greatly" to the difficult days of Zhao Xiaodie and her mother.
Such a person probably wouldn't disfigure herself just to frame Zhao Xiaodie.
Xue Lanfang must have encountered something so bad that she had been manipulated by the Pei family to deal with Zhao Xiaodie.
"This, this little one greets the Pei Clan's Old Master."
Xue Lanfang knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Pei Qianji, trembling.
Pei Qianji still put on a compassionate look and was not stingy with his pity.
"You're not in good health. Get up quickly."
"Yes, thank you, Master."
Lin Mengya sneered in her heart.
This Master Pei was really interesting.
Zhao Xiaodie was so pale that she could be blown down by a gust of wind, but he ignored her.
But in front of Xue Lanfang, he acted like a good person.
How could such a person be fair?
Sure enough, it was just an excuse.
"Now I asked you to come here to find out your grievances. In front of so many of us, you can tell us all your grievances one by one.
Don't be afraid. I'm here to help you. No one will bully you again. "
When Xue Lanfang heard this, she was first afraid, and then she was at a loss.
After hesitating for a while, she squeezed out a few words from her throat.
"I, I was hurt by that bitch, Zhao Xiaodie!"
These words seemed to have opened the floodgates of her emotions.
She suddenly burst into a howl of anguish, and as she wept she told a rather sad story.
The more Lin Mengya listened, the more ridiculous she felt.
It was not Xue Lanfang's experience that was ridiculous, but she was hurting another woman with the injuries caused by a man.
Moreover, the person who caused such injuries was likely to be the one who ordered her to do it.
The more miserable Xue Lanfang's experience was, the more Lin Mengya felt that the person hiding behind the scenes was too dirty and despicable.
Anger ignited a raging flame in his heart.
Xue Lanfang was indeed vicious, but how good could the person who used her be?
"Well, we have a rough idea of what happened. Let me ask you, are you sure that those people who hurt you were ordered by your cousin-in-law, Zhao Xiaodie?"
Lin Mengya interrupted this useless accusation in a deep voice.
But there was a flash of complacency in Pei Qianji's eyes.
He knew that in the face of such strong evidence, neither Gong Ya nor Zhao Xiaodie had a chance to turn things around.
In his eyes, Lin Mengya was just anxious.
It was good that she was anxious. If she was anxious, she would show more flaws.
But Lin Mengya just didn't want to listen to those dirty things anymore.
No one would like to expose their wounds in public. Even Madam Xianglin wouldn't tell others how she was forced to remarry.
She was not interested in being an audience, and she was not interested in being an accomplice to the second injury.
Xue Lanfang hadn't seen her much, so she naturally didn't recognize her.
Hearing this, Xue Lanfang was stunned, and then she began to scream and cry loudly. She was very emotional.
"Of course it's her. No one would hate me like this except her! And no one would want to use this method to destroy me, my innocence, my appearance … "
She held her face and cried even more miserably.
"It's all her. She's jealous that I'm younger and more beautiful than her, stronger and better at bearing children than her!
She's afraid that my cousin will divorce her and marry me. It's all her. It's all her fault! "
Maybe it was because the injury she had suffered was too much of a shock to Xue Lanfang.
Lin Mengya felt that there was something wrong with Pei Qianji's mood.
But she didn't know the cause of this abnormality.
So she didn't dare to rashly say something to provoke Pei Qianji. She could only change her attitude a little.
"I know that you must be feeling bad after experiencing such a thing.
Why don't you tell me some information about the murderer? I can help you find these people.
After all, you don't want to let go of the real murderer who hurt you, right? "
She tried to communicate with Xue Lanfang.
She didn't ask Pei Qianji what had happened, but only asked about the murderer.
Unexpectedly, Xue Lanfang refused to communicate and kept repeating that it was Zhao Xiaodie who did it.
Lin Mengya's doubts deepened.
Xue Lanfang's behavior was not so much because she hated Zhao Xiaodie, but because she thought it was some kind of stress reaction.
At this time, Pei Qianji suddenly said, "This time I called you here to let you confront Zhao Xiaodie on the spot. Xue Lanfang, if you are really wronged, I and everyone present will definitely uphold justice for you."
Xue Lanfang suddenly widened her red eyes.
She suddenly turned around and found Zhao Xiaodie who had been standing in the corner.
Then she suddenly showed a ferocious smile.
"Zhao Xiaodie, go to hell!"
