Chapter 3: I'll Go to H City Tomorrow
Editor: Atlas Studios
The next morning, around 7:00 am, someone knocked anxiously on the door of the courtyard.
Qiao Feng came out of the toilet and rushed to open the door. The moment he opened it, the person outside pushed him and he almost fell.
"Hey, what's going on? It's so early in the morning."
The boorish man did not explain but opened the door. A person entered. He was bald, had a gold chain, and was less than 1.7 meters tall.
He took off his sunglasses and glanced disdainfully around the courtyard. "Qiao Feng, where's your daughter?"
When Qiao Feng saw that it was Fatty Jiang, his anger was instantly quelled as he fawned, "Yo, son-in-law, you're here so early. Isn't it 9 o'clock for picking up the bride? Sisi is still sleeping in her room and hasn't woken up!"
"Hasn't woken up?" Fatty Jiang had a look of disdain. "I think she has run away! Go look for her!"
"Hey, what are you doing!" Liu Yun came out after putting on her clothes. When she saw this scene, she immediately said anxiously, "Boss Jiang, what do you mean?"
Fatty Jiang ignored Liu Yun and walked into the house. When he stopped at Qiao Sisi's room, the door was locked.
"Break it!" Fatty Jiang had no patience at all. As soon as he finished speaking, the burly man behind him kicked hard, and the flimsy door instantly cracked.
They rushed into the room and saw someone lying under the blanket.
Fatty Jiang lifted the blanket and saw the tied-up woman.
"What's going on?"
Liu Yun saw the woman's back and immediately went forward to explain, "Aiyo, Boss Jiang, as you know, Sisi is a little shy. We were afraid that we would ruin your marriage, so we tied her up to avoid any hiccups."
Fatty Jiang was not a fool. When he was young, he had been involved in all sorts of things. He knew that this lady was unwilling to marry him and that was why her family tied her up.
Originally, Fatty Jiang did not care about such things. After all, he had given the money, so she would have to marry him.
However, he received a call in the morning informing him the Qiao family was planning to take his money and run away. They did not intend to marry their daughter to him.
As such, he had rushed over early in the morning to stop them!
He was surprised that she was still around.
Just as he was feeling puzzled, a siren sounded outside. Then a few police officers entered the house.
Qiao Feng panicked. "What's going on?"
"Someone called the police to report that you guys have abducted a woman. We've come to investigate." The policeman saw that there were many people in the house and instinctively walked in.
Liu Yun was caught off guard and could not prevent the policemen from seeing the unconscious woman tied to the bed, as well as the suspect, Fatty Jiang.
"Outrageous! you're really audacious to be engaged in trafficking of women. Since you're caught red-handed, come with me to the police station." And the policeman took out his handcuffs to arrest him.
No matter how overbearing Fatty Jiang was, he did not dare to be unreasonable in front of the police. He said hastily, "It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. I'm engaged to their daughter. I'm here to receive the bride today, not to abduct a woman."
The policeman did not believe him. "Would anyone tie a bride up for marriage? What medicine did you drug the woman with? She's still unconscious…"
Just then, Zhao Hai'er woke up. She turned around and realized that she could not move, so she hurriedly called out for her mom.
When Liu Yun saw her face, she was stunned. "Damn girl, it's you. Where's Qiao Sisi?"
Fatty Jiang was stunned. Of course he knew Zhao Hai'er. She was not the person he wanted to marry.
Everyone in town knew that this girl was lazy.
"Qiao Feng, what's going on? You accepted my betrothal gift. Where is she?"
Qiao Feng was also dumbfounded. Last night, it was clearly Qiao Sisi who was at home! He looked at Zhao Hai'er. "Where is she?"
"How… How would I know!" Zhao Hai'er felt wronged. Yesterday, she had been waiting excitedly to see Qiao Sisi suffer. Now that she was gone, wouldn't her dowry be gone too?
When the policeman heard this, he sneered. "Looks like you guys have quite a lot of explaining to do. In that case, come with me."
With that, he rounded up the group of people and brought them into the police car.
After the onlookers had dispersed, Qiao Sisi entered the house. She found her luggage and identity card and left without hesitation.
After she escaped the night before, the more Qiao Sisi thought about it, the angrier she got. Coupled with the fact that her identity card was still in the house, she was unwilling to leave just like that.
After spending the night at an internet cafe in town, Qiao Sisi made two calls at dawn.
One call was made to Fatty Jiang to inform him that the Qiao family was planning to cheat him of his money and make an escape.
Another call was made to the police to report Fatty Jiang and Qiao Feng's family for engaging in abducting women. The transaction would be carried out today.
After a round of reports, the police indeed arrested them.
As for what would happen to them, Qiao Sisi did not care.
She got into the high-speed rail car and decided to cut ties with Qiao Feng from now on.
Her mother was right to insist on a divorce back then and move out of the household register.
After riding on the train for four to five hours, Qiao Sisi finally returned to A City. She hurriedly went to buy a new phone and fixed her phone card, and noticed she had a series of missed calls.
The calls were from her colleague, Miaomiao.
Puzzled, Qiao Sisi made a call. Before she could speak, Miaomiao warned her, "Sister, why did you only answer your phone now? Something serious has happened."
Qiao Sisi said weakly, "What happened? I'm on leave!"
"You're still in the mood to take a break? Hurry up and check the company's official website. It's all about you. Did you offend someone?" Miaomiao whispered and quickly hung up.
Feeling uneasy, she turned on her computer and logged into the company's forum. She was dumbfounded.
"Tearing down a white-collar woman you don't know about. Instead of being a decent person, she chose to be a mistress."
Qiao Sisi's hands trembled as she read on. The content said that the original poster had a best friend who was engaged to be married to her boyfriend. In the end, she found out that her boyfriend was actually hooking up with a white-collar woman.
This person was none other than Qiao Sisi.
The 'mistress' in the thread was substituted with QSS, but information about the mistress' Weibo, her workplace, and her company all pointed to Qiao Sisi.
What was more infuriating was that the boyfriend mentioned was Zeng Qing.
Zeng Qing was an innocent man who had been seduced. She had become a third party who was hated by everyone.
Then who is the first wife? she wondered.
Just then, the phone rang. It was Chen Anna.
"Sisi, something serious has happened. You would never have thought that the b*tch who hooked up with Zeng Qing was actually Yang Yueyue's best friend, Zhang Li."
Qiao Sisi felt like she was about to have a nervous breakdown. What the f*ck is going on! she thought.
As the victim herself, she had yet to defend herself. Instead, the perpetrator had maligned her.
To make the matter worse, she soon received a notification from the company that it intended to fire her, given the negative impact she had caused.
After working for five years, the company had always emphasized that it treated its employees like a family, and had shown all kinds of considerations when the staff worked overtime. But it changed its attitude immediately when something bad happened. That was really too much!
"Sisi, say something. Don't be like this. I'm scared." Chen Anna's worried voice came from the other end of the phone.
Qiao Sisi took a deep breath and said, "Nana, I'll go to H City tomorrow."
