Chapter 120: Is Xiao Qi Playing the Thief Cries "Stop Thief"?

On that day, the original owner still relentlessly pursued Helian Duo but was framed by Xiao Qi. First, she drank the tea mixed with a paralyzing powder. Then, in the scramble for Helian Duo's autograph, she got involved in a fight. Amid the chaos of the crowd, it was Xiao Qi who took the opportunity to kick her into the lake.

Memories suddenly flooded into her mind without giving Cheng Xiran any time to digest them. It was Xiao Qi! It was actually Xiao Qi! She clearly remembered that she had never offended her. Why was Xiao Qi so cruel and determined to kill her?

Absorbed in the grief of the accidentally retrieved lost memories, Cheng Xiran momentarily forgot that she was still in the lake. Soon, she felt short of breath. When she opened her eyes, she was startled and tried to swim out. Just as she was about to calm herself down, she saw a figure approaching her.

She even forgot to struggle and just stared blankly at that ray of light for a long time.

Helian Duo only saved Cheng Xiran. Xiao Qi swam to the boat out of fear and was pulled up by Xue Lianyu.

"Tell me! Did you, this vicious woman, push my sister into the water!" Before Xiao Qi could react, Chu Liyin stepped forward, pointing at her sternly and shouting.

"You should ask your dear sister that. It was clearly she who pulled me into the water!"

While responding, Xiao Qi was looking for Helian Duo's figure. When she finally found him, she realized that his eyes were only on Cheng Xiran. He held that woman in his arms, rested his chin on her forehead, and seemed to be whispering something. But at this moment, she couldn't hear anything because she didn't allow herself to. She was afraid that she would be heart - broken if she did.

"Cheng Xiran, wake up!"

Helian Duo's whispering turned into a loud shout.

Seeing this, Xue Lianyu wanted to step forward to check if Cheng Xiran had stopped breathing, for Helian Duo looked so heart - broken as if Cheng Xiran had already passed away.

But as soon as he got close to Cheng Xiran, a sudden glance from Helian Duo scared him so much that he didn't dare to move any further.

So he could only stand a few meters away and patiently instruct: "Xiran should have just swallowed some lake water. You need to lay her flat and then drain the water from her chest. Then she'll be fine."

Before Helian Duo could act, Cheng Xiran suddenly woke up on her own. She spat out several mouthfuls of water and coughed a few times. Then she felt much more comfortable, and there was no more feeling of water in her head.

Seeing that she was lying in Helian Duo's arms, she was about to break free, but Helian Duo tightened his hand on her shoulder.

She simply gave in and then self - deprecatingly smiled: "I should really thank Miss Xiao today. If it weren't for Miss Xiao, I wouldn't have recalled those unbearable old memories."

Xiao Qi was immediately stunned. Then she pretended to be calm and turned the tables, saying, "Cheng Xiran, I don't understand what you're talking about. It was clearly you who made me fall into the water, but now you're slandering me. What's your motive?"

"Playing the thief cries 'Stop Thief'."

Cheng Xiran reached out to wipe the water off her face. Then she looked up at Helian Duo and gave him a charming smile: "Let me go. I still have some scores to settle with Xiao Qi."

Everyone present could hear the charm in her tone.

Xue Lianyu was completely confused. He didn't quite understand what had happened between the two women, but he felt that it must be something significant.

He and Chu Liyin could only stand aside and silently watch the development of the situation, looking forward to a reversal in the story.
