Chapter 53: This Tactic Always Works
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Qu Wan first looked at Ling Yuqing’s body and made sure she was okay. Then, she pointed at Ling Tianya.
“Yaya, I know you have never accepted since I married your dad. You think I stole your mom’s place, and no matter how hard I tried to treat you right, I never won your approval. Back when I was pregnant, you even did that unfathomable thing to !”
That lost child again. Qu Wan knew it was the only sympathy card she had. She had used it ti and ti again, but it always worked.
Sure enough, as soon as Qu Wan said that, Ling Tao’s face darkened even more.
“Yaya, you can hate because I married your dad, but Yuqing was innocent in this whole thing. All she ever wanted was the approval of you, her big sister. You can direct your hatred at ; why are you being so hard on Yuqing?”
Qu Wan’s emotional outcry made so of the policeman who didn’t know the whole story sympathize with her.
It was no secret that being a step-mother was a tough job, an even tougher job if you brought another daughter to the marriage.
Ling Tao stared at Ling Tianya, eyebrows furrowed, “What actually happened between you two sisters? Why are the police here?”
Ling Tianya laughed out loud at Ling Tao’s interrogation-style question. “Qu Wan and Ling Yuqing are in the sa mode, talking and behaving in the exact sa manner. Both playing victims and pretending to be the bullied ones in order to win sympathy. Like mother like daughter!” She thought.
“Ling Tianya!” Ling Tao was visibly angry at Ling Tianya’s laughter.
Her attitude couldn’t be more atrocious. When he first heard that Ling Tianya called the police, Ling Tao was wondering if Ling Yuqing actually did sothing to her.
Then, Qu Wan wined and moaned the whole way there and Ling Tao started to think there might have been so misunderstanding. Ling Yuqing grew up around him and had always been a considerable kid. He didn’t think she could have done sothing too out of line.
When Ling Tao arrived at the police station, he saw Ling Tianya sitting by the door looking at ease. In contrast, Ling Yuqing was sitting inside looking intimidated and wronged. At that mont he started to side with Qu Wan even more.
After Ling Tianya sneered when he asked her what happened, Ling Tao was completely on Team Qu Wan by then. After all, he knew very well what Ling Tianya was like from six years ago.
Ling Tianya took the cell phone out of her purse. It was not her regular phone, but the one she used just to contact her ‘eyes’ on Qu Wan and Ling Yuqing, the phone she stored all the videos on.
She handed the phone to Ling Tao, “There are so videos in this phone if you want to watch them. Ling Yuqing almost pushed off the second-floor patio in the hotel because she was so worried that these videos were going to get out.”
“What did you say?” Astonished, Ling Tao was still trying to wrap his head around the whole thing, “You said Yuqing was pushing you off a patio?”
Judging by the look on his face, Ling Tianya knew Ling Tao had no idea what happened in the hotel.
“That’s right, and I didn’t call the police. It was Ruan Zeyan’s assistant Mr. Du Gang.” Ling Tianya said calmly. She talked to her father in the sa tone she would with anyone else, with a complete lack of emotion.
Ling Tao didn’t expect Ruan Zeyan’s assistant to be involved. He looked at Ling Tianya, and then at Qu Wan and Ling Yuqing, “What are in these videos?”
Unlike Ling Tao, Qu Wan knew the answer. Her face was turning pale seeing the phone in Ling Tao’s hands.
Qu Wan was not sure how much was recorded on the phone, but she knew all the nasty things she and Ling Yuqing said about the Ling Family in the past a few days. Worse yet, there were so real ugly secrets that only the mother and daughter knew ...
