<h4>Chapter 103 – Deceitful Rtives (贼亲戚) [1]</h4>


    Jing Yunzhao carried a guilty apologetic expression. Gan Jinchen opened his mouth but nothing came out. No wonder he felt so uneasy at dinner today. Jing Yunzhao was just so indifferent at dinner tonight, so she was actually hiding the situation from them within her heart.


    He wasn’t so petty that he would be angry at Jing Yunzhao over such a small matter, he just felt that her guts were a little toorge.


    Although setting a trap made the situation easier, the other party was the boss of a group of hooligans. He was definitely not someone he would want to mess with.


    The only boon was that her idea was not bad. By involving the authorities, it would ensure their safety. That way, they can ensure their future safety and can avoid being wary all the time about the hooligans infiltrating their home and robbing them.


    Both Gan Jinchen and Su Chu could only follow Jing Yunzhao’s n to leave the apartmentplex, walking around theplex and through the alley and they arrived behind Qiao Hongye.


    Seeing Qiao Hongye’s anxious behaviour to her surroundings only made Su Chu and Gan Jinchen believe Jing Yunzhao’s words even more. Their hearts turn cold as their rage grew immensely. The world that they interacted with was purer. They had never seen someone who was filled with such malevolence, to gang up with a hooligan to steal other people’s things!


    Even if Qiao Hongye disliked Jing Yunzhao, they were still family who had shared a roof for over ten years of their lives!


    “You are Qiao Hongye! This is such a coincidence! What are you doing here?” Su Chu restrained the mes of rage within her heart, squeezing out a smile and tugged on Qiao Hongye’s arm as she asked.


    “Ah!” Qiao Hongye did not think that anyone would sneak up on her and was momentarily frightened.


    She turned her head around and was stunned. Why was Su Chu and Gan Jinchen here!?


    Qiao Hongye was admittedly not familiar with the area, thus how would she know that that the alleys were linked via seven turns and eighteen twists? [2]


    “Yo-You guys... Why are you here?” She obviously saw them with Jing Yunzhao, and the three of them had left the apartmentplex together to have dinner at the food stall. Even if they just left the food stall, why didn’t they enter the neighbourhood through the main gate but from another direction!?


    Hatred and disdain shed through Su Chu’s eyes for a moment, as she was almost unable to keep up her smiling facade. She curled her lips, “We stay in this neighbourhood, passing by this alley is extremelymon. As for you... Looking around over here thiste is a little strange though!”


    “I ... I heard that Jing Yunzhao was living with you guys ... I was worried about her so I came to take a look ...” Qiao Hongye hurriedly spat out a lie in her flustered state.


    Gan Jinchen’s frustration towards Qiao Hongye deepened.


    Coming over to take a look? Noting in the day buting at night? Not entering the apartmentplex but rather staying in this dark corner?


    “Since it’s like this thene upstairs with us, Jing Yunzhao is there.” Gan Jinchen told her on purpose.


    Qiao Hongye instantly felt that there was a buzzing noise in her mind. “Jing Yunzhao is at home!?”


    “That’s right. She’s usually very obedient and doesn’t like to stay out around thiste,” said Su Chu as she pouted her lips, feeling both angry and excited at the same time. In her heart, she muttered, ‘Let’s see what other rubbish excuses you can spout!’


    The only thought that was in Qiao Hongye was that they were screwed, Cao Xing would definitely be discovered!


    But she thought about it again. If Jing Yunzhao was the only one at home right now, Cao Xing should still be able to take care of her right?


    What she had to do right now was to dy these two people and not let them go upstairs. Otherwise, if there were more people, Cao Xing would definitely be caught.


    Thinking about it like that, Qiao Hongye suddenly pulled back Su Chu’s hand, “Su Chu, you must not tell my Elder Sister that I came. She really doesn’t like me. If she found out that I came to see her secretly, she would hit me the moment she turned around and saw me...”


    “What nonsense are you saying! My Biao-jie would not harm anyone! From the looks of it, you must be feeling insecure! Why are you always ruining Biao-jie’s reputation!? Oh yeah, our house looks like it has attracted a robber. Your sneaky behaviour must mean that you are affiliated with this robber! But even if you are, it doesn’t matter because my Biao-jie already called the cops. He definitely will not be able to escape!” The moment Su Chu hear Qiao Hongye’s words, she immediately could not bear it anymore


    The situation has already reached its conclusion anyway. With the two of them watching, if Qiao Hongye dares to make the call, she (SC) would pounce on her (QHY) and scratch her to death! Heng!
