“I’ve heard about it. I’ve also heard that someone proved that I was the one who poisoned her. Is that true?” Leng ruoxue raised her beautiful eyes and said calmly.
“Uh!” Leng ruoxue’s question made Dongfang Yue feel a little awkward, but he still answered honestly,””There is such a thing! But don’t worry, miss Leng, we won’t wrong innocent people. ”
“If that’s the case, then please bring out the witness and let us confront him face to face!” Leng ruoxue said indifferently.
However, when Dongfang Yue heard this, he was a little hesitant and even a little conflicted. Leng ruoxue noticed this and asked in surprise,””What’s wrong? Is it not convenient for the witness to come out? You dare to testify against me, yet you don’t dare to confront me face to face?”
“No!” Dongfang Yue said. He was afraid that the witness would start a fight with Leng ruoxue because of a disagreement. The matter had not been investigated yet, so he really did not want to see such a scene.
“Then let him come out! I’ll see who’s the one who pointed me out. ” Leng ruoxue said directly.
“Alright then!” Dongfang Yue finally nodded. Then, he gave uncle Lian a look. Uncle Lian understood and turned to leave. Not long after, an extremely unwilling woman followed behind him.
That lady was none other than yaoji, who had been on good terms with Leng ruoxue recently. Of course, it was mainly because of her.
When Leng ruoxue saw yaoji, her beautiful eyes narrowed. She thought to herself,”so this woman is the witness.” Instantly, she felt more confident.
After that, Leng ruoxue’s beautiful eyes shifted slightly. She used her peripheral vision to observe the reactions of the people present and noted down their reactions in her heart.
If these people believed yaoji’s words, Leng ruoxue felt that she could leave this place and return to her residence. However, from the looks of the people present, they didn’t fully believe yaoji’s testimony.
The truth was just as Leng ruoxue had expected. Most of them didn’t believe yaoji’s words, but seeing as yaoji made it sound so convincing, they had no choice but to ask Leng ruoxue to come out. In reality, they didn’t intend for the two of them to meet so soon, but Dongfang Yue had agreed for them to confront each other face to face, so they had no choice but to allow this scene to play out ahead of schedule.
However, just like Dongfang Yue, they were afraid that the two women would start fighting because of a disagreement. If that happened, it would be very lively.
For a moment, many people’s eyes widened, and their hearts were filled with fear. They didn’t know how this scene would play out. They were actually looking forward to it!
However, it was a good thing that Leng ruoxue was not aware of their thoughts. Otherwise, she would definitely be so depressed that she would vomit blood!
Shouldn’t a confrontation be a very serious matter? Why did these people want to watch the show instead? How could they let those poisoned people endure this?!
Ever since uncle Lian half-dragged yaoji into the meeting hall, she had been feeling uneasy. However, she kept encouraging herself and telling herself that Leng ruoxue was the one who poisoned her! Leng ruoxue was the one who poisoned him!
When yaoji walked to the center of the meeting hall, Dongfang Yue asked indifferently,””Yaoji, didn’t you say that Leng ruoxue was the one who poisoned you? Now that Leng ruoxue is here, you can confront her face to face!”
Hearing this, yaoji finally dared to look at Leng ruoxue. However, she realized that Leng ruoxue was sitting and there were no empty chairs in the entire Hall. Instantly, she, who had been feeling uneasy, was enraged!
‘Damn it!’ On what basis could Leng ruoxue, the person who had poisoned him, sit down? And she, the witness, had to stand like a criminal and let everyone inspect her?
Such a sharp contrast made yaoji feel extremely unbalanced. Then, she roared in anger,””What right does a sinner like her have to sit here? I should be the one sitting, she should be standing!”
Dongfang Yue was rendered speechless by yaoji’s words. It was only today that he realized how low her IQ was.
Was it important who was sitting?
Wasn’t she supposed to repeat what she had said to them in front of Leng ruoxue so that the two of them could confront each other face to face?
In the end, yaoji began to question who was sitting and who was standing.
More importantly, even though yaoji had pointed out that Leng ruoxue was the one who had poisoned her, they couldn’t just convict her based on her one-sided statement, right? If that was the case, there would be many false charges in this world!
Besides, after a private discussion with the Hierarch, they all felt that Leng ruoxue would never do such a thing. In that case, the only person who could lie was yaoji.
Although yaoji wasn’t in their favor, they really didn’t want to believe that she would do such a thing. After all, they had gone through so many hardships together. But obviously, they were going to be disappointed!
However, they also needed to hear what Leng ruoxue had to say. As for how they would handle this matter, it would also depend on the outcome of the confrontation between the two.
They didn’t want to wrong the innocent, but they also didn’t want to let any bad people off! Especially those who framed others for their own selfish desires!
“Miss yaoji, what right do you have to call me a sinner? What crime have I committed?” Seeing that no one was paying attention to yaoji, Leng ruoxue could only speak kindly to avoid an awkward silence.
“Hmph! You’ve poisoned us and caused all of us to be poisoned. Therefore, you’ve committed the most heinous crime! Unforgivable!” Yaoji roared furiously. At this moment, she had forgotten the uneasiness in her heart and only wanted to seek justice for herself.
“I poisoned you? What evidence do you have to accuse me like this?” Leng ruoxue chuckled as she questioned.
“Of course I have evidence, because I saw it with my own eyes!” Yaoji raised her head and puffed out her chest, speaking in an imposing manner.
“You saw it with your own eyes? Then why didn’t you stop me at that time? Why didn’t you call for help? Now that everyone here has been poisoned, you jump out to testify against me. What are you up to!” Leng ruoxue shook her head as she spoke. She was clearly disappointed in yaoji’s ability to set people up.
Upon hearing Leng ruoxue’s words, the elders and sinecures present looked at yaoji with hostility. Some of the elders even questioned her directly,””Miss Leng is right. Miss yaoji, you have to give us a reasonable explanation. Why didn’t you stop her when you saw her poisoning us?”
Hearing this elder’s words, Leng ruoxue could not help but laugh in her heart. He didn’t expect someone to be so cooperative. Let’s see how yaoji will clear her name now!
“I, I … I didn’t know at that time. I only remembered it when everyone was poisoned! Besides, I’m also poisoned. Do you think I’d joke around with my life?” Yaoji stammered for a long time before she finally said what she wanted to say.
However, the elder obviously didn’t want to let yaoji off just like that. He continued to ask,””You said you don’t know, but do you have any evidence? Besides, we all know that you’re only lightly poisoned. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be standing in front of us alive and kicking!”
