Chapter 14:  Turning the Tables

She saw that Xia Keqing was dressed fashionably and beautifully, and she was holding several bags in her hand, which meant she had bought a lot of things in the market.

She didn’t look poor at all, she could afford to eat.

Wasn’t this a lie?

She didn’t even consider the possibility that her brother might be lying to her.

She just felt that her brother had been tricked by this woman, Xia Keqing.

Over a hundred yuan! She must tear this woman apart!

“Aren’t you from the countryside? Your parents don’t care about you at all, how can you afford to buy so many things?”

“Give them to me!”

She reached out to grab the things from Xia Keqing’s hand.

How could Xia Keqing let her grab her things?

Where would she put her face?

She just dodged slightly, and Chen Lili almost fell to the ground.

“Xia Keqing, you bitch! My brother is kind, he lent you so much money, you’re buying so many things with the money others lent you, did your conscience get eaten by a dog?”

“Give me the money back!”

Xia Keqing frowned, realizing that there must be some misunderstanding.

He Xiaolan had already spoken first.

“What borrowed money? Who is your brother?”

“Your brother wouldn’t be Chen Zhou, would he?”

“Hey, I’m telling you, are you mistaken?”

Chen Lili’s best friend was indignant, “Absolutely not. Brother Chen borrowed money from Lili, I was there listening.”

Xia Keqing suddenly laughed.

She knew Chen Zhou was shameless, but she didn’t expect him to be so shameless.

To get money, he even lied to his own sister.

But scumbags have no bottom line.

Thinking about it that way, it made sense.

“Chen Zhou said I borrowed money from him?”

Chen Lili’s face was black, “Isn’t it?”

Xia Keqing was really curious, how shameless could a person be?

So she asked expressionlessly, “I want to know, what did he say about me?”

Chen Lili’s friend looked at her with disdain, “How else would he say it?”

“You did such a shameless thing, you don’t want others to talk about it? You’re still a college student? You’re really embarrassing college students!”

He Xiaolan immediately protected Xia Keqing, “How dare you talk like that? What’s wrong with our Keqing? What did she do?”

“Our Keqing is upright and honest, how could she embarrass college students?”

“I’m telling you, you can’t leave until you clarify things!”

It’s human nature to watch the show.

The onlookers quickly surrounded the four of them, pointing at Xia Keqing.

“I can’t believe it, she’s still a college student, she’s actually this kind of person.”

“Borrowing money from others to buy so many things, if her parents knew, wouldn’t they break her legs?”

“She doesn’t look like this kind of person!”

“Who knows, you can’t judge a book by its cover!”

Xia Keqing could keep her cool, but He Xiaolan couldn’t take this humiliation.

She said angrily, “Wrong, wrong, you’re all wrong.”

“Our Keqing has never borrowed money from Chen Zhou, on the contrary, Chen Zhou owes Keqing money! Why are you turning the tables?”

He Xiaolan said with an unbelievable expression, “You wouldn’t think that our Keqing bought these things with money borrowed from Chen Zhou, would you?”

“Ugh! Our Keqing has never borrowed money from Chen Zhou!”

Chen Lili’s eyes widened, “You’re lying!”

Xia Keqing sighed, she hadn’t done anything bad, she wasn’t nervous at all, but she couldn’t ignore He Xiaolan’s protection of her.

She took the opportunity to say, “My roommate isn’t lying.”

“I don’t owe Chen Zhou any money, on the contrary, he owes me over a hundred yuan, I even have an IOU here.”

But the IOU wasn’t on her, she said to Chen Lili, “The IOU isn’t on me, it’s in the dorm, if you don’t believe me, come back to the dorm with me later, I’ll show it to you.”

Chen Lili saw that she wasn’t nervous at all, and she spoke reasonably, her heart wavered a little.

Could it be that her brother really lied to her?

But why would her brother lie to her?

If her brother really lied to her, wouldn’t she be embarrassed? Chen Lili was a little at a loss.

Chen Lili’s friend immediately jumped out, “Lili, don’t believe her!”

“Brother Chen is a college student, haven’t you always said he’s your idol? How could he lie to you? Don’t doubt your own family just because an outsider said a few words.”

Chen Lili was still hesitant, but after listening to her friend’s words, she immediately became firm again.

“Xiaoyu, you’re right, I shouldn’t believe outsiders and doubt my brother.”

Xia Keqing then turned her attention to this girl.

Xiaoyu?

Feng Xiaoyu?

Chen Zhou’s dog?

She knew the general plot after transmigrating, so she knew this Feng Xiaoyu.

Feng Xiaoyu was Chen Zhou’s younger sister, Chen Lili’s high school classmate.

After failing the college entrance exam, she went to work in a factory with Chen Lili, and they had been good friends ever since.

After the original owner got pregnant, she often went to Chen’s house with Chen Lili, flirting with Chen Zhou.

Later, the original owner almost had a miscarriage because Feng Xiaoyu was flirting with Chen Zhou, and they almost couldn’t hold back and did something inappropriate in the utility room.

After being caught by the original owner, she turned the tables, saying that the original owner’s belly was too big, she had hallucinations, she was imagining things, and she was slandering others.

In this era, a woman’s chastity was indeed very important.

What’s more, the original owner had no status in Chen’s house, and Chen Zhou favored Feng Xiaoyu, so no one took the original owner seriously.

Xia Keqing felt a surge of anger.

This was the original owner’s emotion.

Don’t worry, I’ll definitely get revenge for you.

Xia Keqing said firmly in her heart.

The original owner’s emotions slowly dissipated.

Xia Keqing stared at Feng Xiaoyu, making her a little nervous.

Some people are more likely to bluff when they are more nervous, and they also speak louder.

Feng Xiaoyu was this kind of person, so she was only nervous for a moment under Xia Keqing’s sharp gaze, and immediately raised her voice, “Why are you staring at me?”

“I’m not lying?”

“Brother Chen is a college student, how could he lie? You say you have an IOU, but you can’t show it, who knows if you’re telling the truth or not.”

Xia Keqing was amused by her robber logic.

“Chen Zhou is a college student, so am I, what? Is he the only college student in the world?”

He Xiaolan immediately chimed in, “Yeah, you’re too arbitrary.”

Xia Keqing glanced at Chen Lili and Feng Xiaoyu, “It’s simple to figure this out, come back to school with me now, I’ll show you the IOU.”

Chen Lili and Feng Xiaoyu looked at each other.

In the end, Chen Lili backed down, “Why don’t we go?”

Feng Xiaoyu pretended to be calm, “Anyway, I don’t believe Brother Chen is that kind of person.”

Chen Lili’s voice was a little weak, “I, I don’t believe it either.”

Chen Zhou’s parents favored sons over daughters, his two younger sisters didn’t have a high status at home either, Chen Lili’s personality was particularly soft.

Of course, none of them in this family were good people.

In the previous life, after the original owner moved into Chen’s house, Chen Lili and her younger sister, Chen Zhenzhen, bullied her a lot.

There are people like this, if they get rained on, they want to tear everyone else’s umbrellas.

That’s what Chen Lili and Chen Zhenzhen were like.

Don’t look at her current soft and indecisive appearance.

She was just afraid that the truth was what Xia Keqing said, then what about the money she had lent?
