Chapter 45
Lu Jia and the rest of the boys looked at him in disbelief as soon as he said those words.
“None of this would have happened if you hadn’t been so fixed on taking revenge on her!” The boy who threw the stone snarled, glaring at Lu Jia.
Lu Jia felt hurt when she was yelled at, and her eyes watered.
But when she thought about it again, her cousin wasn’t wrong. Her aunt wouldn’t forgive them for getting her son injured, and if her other cousin was going to be blamed for it, she knew that his parents would blame her eventually. Her parents were already quite unhappy with her since the incident at school…
Looks like making Jing Yunzhao take the blame was the only way to save them all; only then would her aunt not blame them for hurting her son, and not blame her for asking her cousins to take revenge on Jing Yunzhao.
It was as if the devil in Lu Jia’s heart was trying to persuade her. She looked at her cousin who was lying in a pool of his own blood and began to feel hatred for Jing Yunzhao who seemed indifferent about the entire situation.
They would all be fine if it weren’t for Jing Yunzhao!
“Call the police now before Jing Yunzhao runs away!” Lu Jia shouted, making her stand clear.
Lu Jia’s other two cousins both panicked and didn’t argue when Lu Jia decided to do as their eldest cousin said. They knew very well that they had played a part in thistoo, and were quite happy to let Jing Yunzhao take the blame.
They were all children from a proper family and it would kill their parents if anything happened to them, but Jing Yunzhao was different!
She was an orphan, wasn’t she? No one would be sad if she was thrown behind the bars.
The boy who threw the rock heaved a sigh of relief and called the police with trembling hands after making sure they were all on the same page.
In the end, their youth showed; they panicked as the accident happened and forgot about the most conclusive evidence – the fingerprints on the rock. Then again, Jing Yunzhao would not have allowed them to wipe out the evidence even if they had remembered to do it.
Both the police and an ambulance quickly arrived at the scene. The police officers were stunned to realize that the perpetrators were just a bunch of teenagers.
Jing Yunzhao never thought of fleeing the scene and entered the police car obediently. As for the injured boy, he was alive despite the excessive bleeding and was quickly carried into the ambulance and rushed to the hospital.
“It was Jing Yunzhao who did it, officers. She threw the rock at my cousin and hurt him!” Lu Jia insisted, trying to calm herself down.
“She is right, it was Jing Yunzhao! Look at these bruises – she hurt us using martial arts!” The boy who threw the rock exclaimed, his eyes red.
The other two boys lowered their heads fearfully and didn’t say a word.
Their parents were all informed about the accident and were on their way to the police station. Since Jing Yunzhao had separated from the Qiao Family, the police informed Gan Songbo as her god-grandfather.
Jing Yunzhao didn’t want to trouble Grandpa Gan with her own affairs, but she was staying at his place so she decided to explain the situation to him to keep him from worrying.
Jing Yunzhao remained silent as she waited for Gan Songbo’s arrival.
She knew that without the presence of an adult, what she said might not be taken seriously.
Lu Jia’s mother and three of her aunts arrived before Gan Songbo did. It seemed like the families had sent the mothers to the police station and the fathers to the hospital, and the mothers of the children looked angry and vicious when they arrived.
