"Qingzhi denied your evidence because Xu Ling influenced her. She treated you as her biological sister and didn''t want to see you go astray. She wanted you to realize your mistake and change. Now that she knows that she has misunderstood, she mes herself very much. She was even scolded by so many people…"


    Kang Jichuan''s voice carried a hint of pleading. "Qingzhi has already apologized to you in public and paid the price. No matter what, Qingzhi is your younger sister. Don''t announce her name online, alright?"


    He thought for a long time. Qingzhi and Xu Ling''s names could not be posted online. After all, everyone knew that Xu Ling was Qingzhi''s good friend. If Xu Ling was the one who reported it, it was inevitable that theizens would be suspicious. Hence, he wanted to think of a method where they could rify that Xi Xi was wronged but without announcing the names of the people who framed her. This way, it would not affect Qingzhi.


    Qiao Xi could not help but roll her eyes. She sneered. "Young Master Kang, are you saying that although I''ve already proven my innocence, I can''t announce the people who framed and ndered me online? I just need the officials of the International Fragrance Competition to rify things, right?"


    Kang Jichuan nodded, his throat a little dry.


    "Young Master Kang." Qiao Xi''s voice was cold. "Kang Qingzhi and Xu Ling joined forces to frame me, causing everyone to think that I seduced the judges and cheated. If I don''t exin the ins and outs of the matter and rashly release a rification message, what will theizens think of me?


    "They''ll probably think that I seduced another man or used my power to threaten thepetition''s organizers to regain my qualifications to participate in thepetition. I''m a victim to begin with. What''s wrong with me proving my innocence? Why should I suffer to protect the perpetrator?"


    "Xi Xi!" Kang Jichuan''s tone was a little impatient. "Then what do you want? Could it be that you want to destroy Qingzhi?"


    Qiao Xi sneered. "I''ve been scolded by others for so many days. Can''t I rify things? In your eyes, Kang Qingzhi can''t suffer any grievances. Even if she frames someone else, she can''t pay the price she deserves. Meanwhile, I deserve to be wronged? Even if I''ve proven my innocence, I can''t rify things online? Listen to yourself. Don''t you think you''re too biased?"


    Kang Jichuan''s expression changed, and his legs went weak. He could not help but take a few steps back.


    He… He was not being biased. He had no intention of hurting Xi Xi!<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    "Sister Xi Xi, Brother said that for me. If you want to me someone, me me!" There were still tears on Kang Qingzhi''s face as she looked at Qiao Xi with grievance and fear. "Actually, Brother isn''t biased toward me. It''s because of the Kang family''s business. We''ve invested a lot of money in the perfume business. If my image is damaged, our family will lose a lot of money.


    "Sister, I… I beg you. Can you not post your name online? You can punish me however you want…"


    "Will the Kang family lose money if your image is damaged?" Qiao Xi asked, then snorted coldly. "Miss Kang, does the Kang family losing money have anything to do with me? Your Kang family is protecting the perpetrator and forcing me, the victim, topromise. I really can''t agree to this unreasonable request. It''s impossible for anyone with a brain to agree!"


    Kang Ru''s and Kang Jichuan''s eyes were veryplicated.


    Yes! This was indeed difficult for Xi Xi to ept, but…


    Kang Qingzhi was anxious and uneasy. Her voice was filled with pleading. "Sister Xi Xi, you can hate me, but on the ount of Dad and Brother, how can you…"


    "Miss Kang, do I need to remind you that I''ve never eaten a single bite of the Kang family''s food or spent a single cent of their money? I don''t have any feelings for them either. What right do you have to ask me to sacrifice myself for the Kang family? Moreover, what right do you, an adopted daughter who''s upying my identity, have to persuade me?" Qiao Xi''s words hit Kang Qingzhi''s heart hard.


    Kang Qingzhi''s round eyes were filled with sorrow and fear. Tears welled up in her eyes. She took a few steps back in horror like a frightened rabbit and said in a trembling voice, "Sister, I… I beg you…"


    "You b*tch! I''ll tear your mouth off!" Old Madam Kang roared angrily and stood in front of Kang Qingzhi. She red fiercely at Qiao Xi. "You have to agree even if you don''t want to! If you dare to make things difficult for Qingzhi and ruin her reputation, I''ll let you die without aplete corpse!"


    Kang Jichuan remembered that Old Madam Kang had been calling Xi Xi a b*tch today. He was a little dissatisfied and was about to speak up for Xi Xi when he turned around and saw Qingzhi pulling the corner of his shirt aggrievedly.
