The Deputy Prefect's wife was furious. "You're shamelessly telling lies, bald-faced lies, lying through your teeth! Well, Miss Qiao!"
Qiao Wei retorted, "Don't you, the Deputy Prefect's wife, excel at distorting the truth, telling shameless lies, lying through your teeth? I wouldn't dare to compare myself with you."
"You!"
"Miss Qiao is absolutely correct!" Qiao Xuan added sarcastically. "In the art of bald-faced lies and lying through one's teeth, no one surpasses the Deputy Prefect's wife!"
The Deputy Prefect's wife was seething with anger, her vision darkening, but she couldn't come up with a retort.
Persistently claiming that Qiao Xuan had been abducted was a prime example of distorting the truth, telling bald-faced lies, and lying through one's teeth.
Apart from swallowing her anger and accepting the situation, what else could she do?
The Deputy Prefect cleared his throat awkwardly, covering his mouth with his fist.
