Chapter 1550 No Chance To Regret If You Take The Wrong Step

Kang Qingzhi bit her lip tightly, the hatred in her heart about to overflow.

Qiao Xi was a calamity. The moment she appeared, she caused chaos in the Kang family. Because of her, the Situ and Xia families in the capital were also in trouble.

Among those wealthy families, the Kang family was nothing. There would be many more wealthy families and nobles who would be affected because of her. Since Xia Yunqiu had disappeared from everyone's sight with her back then, why did she still appear? It did not matter if she got mixed up with other families, but why did she have to appear in front of the Kang family?

Because of Qiao Xi, the secret from many years ago was about to be revealed. At that time, not only would the Kang family be affected, but many families would also be affected!

Qiao Xi deserved to die! If she died, there wouldn't be so much trouble!

Kang Qingzhi held the cell phone tightly and said firmly, "Mrs. Gu, no matter what you say today, I have to call the police. It's not only for my own sake but also for everyone's safety. I'm the one who suffered today, but it might be someone else tomorrow. If you don't get punished, you definitely won't stop!"

The matter involved everyone. Everyone supported Kang Qingzhi in calling the police, but they did not rashly say anything.

After a few seconds of silence, Qiao Xi waved her hand helplessly. "Since you're so insistent, then call the police."

Her tone was so calm, making everyone puzzled. Was Mrs. Gu so sure that even if the police came, they would not be able to do anything to her? Not only was Kang Qingzhi Old Madam Gu's savior, but she was also the daughter of the Kang family. Mrs. Gu attempted to murder Miss Kang at the banquet. Why was she so confident that she could escape unscathed?

Kang Qingzhi stared fixedly at Qiao Xi. She really did not understand why Qiao Xi could still be so calm at this time. Without the Gu family's help, how could she escape punishment? Gu Zheng had not spoken up for her until now. Moreover, Old Madam Gu had only said a few words before she stopped talking. Why was Qiao Xi still supporting her in calling the police? Could it be that she was not afraid?

Kang Qingzhi did not think too much about it and had already pressed the number. Qiao Xi, who was at the side, suddenly smiled playfully. "Miss Kang, actually, I'm very supportive of you calling the police, but I still want to remind you that there's a camera in the backyard that's facing where you were standing. Although it can't record the sound, the image is very clear. It's actually not difficult to know what you said. We just have to find a lip-reading expert to transcribe it.

"If you really call the police, guess who the police will arrest in the end?"

Kang Qingzhi's mind exploded!

Qiao Xi's tone was filled with ridicule. "Miss Kang, I asked you to consider it carefully before calling the police for your own good. After all, you won't have a chance to regret it if you take the wrong step!"

"You're doing this for my own good?" Kang Qingzhi sneered, her expression filled with viciousness. "You're clearly stalling for time and don't want me to call the police. You're just guilty—"

"Miss Kang, that fish pond is less than a meter deep. With your height, you can quickly stabilize yourself even if you fall. It's unlikely that you'll drown unless you want to die."

Qiao Xi said casually, but these words smashed heavily into Kang Qingzhi's heart.

The fish pond… was less than a meter deep?

Kang Qingzhi's face instantly turned pale. She did not have time to think and roared, "Nonsense! How can that fish pond be so shallow?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yao ran in with a laptop and shouted, "Qiao Xi, I've gotten the surveillance footage, but there's no sound. We can only take a look first. We'll know the contents of the conversation when the police arrive."

As he spoke, Gu Yao clicked on the video in public. Although they could not hear anything, everyone could tell something from Kang Qingzhi's expression.

Kang Qingzhi's face was filled with smugness and viciousness. It was completely different from her usual gentle and weak appearance. She seemed to have changed into a different person.

Everyone's expressions changed instantly. Kang Qingzhi hurriedly explained, "I… I was just chatting with Mrs. Gu. I don't know why my expression is like this."

"I learned how to lip-read. Let me try." At this moment, a voice came from the crowd. A socialite slowly walked over. She stared at the video for a while and frowned. "Miss Kang is standing sideways. From this angle, I can't be sure what she said."

As soon as she finished speaking, Kang Qingzhi, who was in the surveillance footage, suddenly changed direction. The socialite stared at the screen and slowly said, "I can see it clearly now. Miss Kang said, 'Even if I fall into the fish pond now, everyone will think that you pushed me!' I think my interpretation should be right. If you don't believe me, we can get the police's lip-reading experts to transcribe it…"
