Ah! The Villains I Forced to Turn Evil Can Read My Mind

The venue was deathly silent.

Xia Xuechun's lower lip trembled slightly as she straightened her body, her tone resistant: "I didn't do it on purpose, and it's just a dress, why should I be beaten for it?"

Qiao Chuchu spoke calmly: "Just because she came to a very important gathering for herself, looking glamorous, and you ruined it for her."

Xia Xuechun laughed: "What did I ruin? It's just a dress—"

"This dress costs seven hundred thousand, it's the latest high-end luxury from D's, you can look it up online," Qiao Chuchu interrupted her: "Now, pay up."

Xia Xuechun: "…What?"

Qiao Chuchu helped the woman, who was covered in red wine, to her feet, and took a blanket from a waiter to cover her: "You think you just stained a dress, and she slapped you, hurting your dignity, but have you thought about this guest's dignity?"

Xia Xuechun's face gradually turned pale.

Qiao Chuchu spoke clearly: "Today is Grandpa Zhao's birthday banquet, and this lady came here at the invitation. There are even many people here she knows. In front of so many acquaintances, you splashed her with red wine, ruining her glamorous outfit. Doesn't she feel embarrassed?"

Qiao Chuchu pressed on: "Why should this innocent lady pay for your mistake?"

Xia Xuechun was not convinced: "But she hit me too!"

Qiao Chuchu laughed: "In today's society, a slap is worth at most two or three thousand, even if she compensates you three thousand, you still owe sixty-seven thousand. How do you plan to pay?"

Xia Xuechun was choked, frowning in distress.

Qiao Chuchu was skillful and composed: "Let me guess, your family's bankbook doesn't even add up to sixty-seven thousand, right? So why can you make a mistake and not admit it, and still hold on to her hitting you?"

The scene was filled with scattered laughter: "I thought she was so capable, turns out her parents' assets combined can't even cover this."

"Haha, wouldn't she have to sell her house for a dress?"

"Only loans then."

"Hah, I thought she had a hidden identity, ready to reveal it and slap us in the face, turns out she's just someone who can't afford it, hahaha!"

Xia Xuechun's face turned red enough to bleed, glaring resentfully at Qiao Chuchu without speaking.

Qiao Chuchu looked coldly, suddenly pushed aside: "That's enough!"

A handsome young man, also dressed as a waiter, stepped in front of Xia Xuechun, shouting at Qiao Chuchu: "It's just compensation, I'm willing to pay for her!"

Xia Xuechun was taken aback, surprised looking at the man: "Jiahao Ge?"

Qiao Chuchu raised an eyebrow, noticing the teardrop mole under the man's eye.

【Oh, the big sacrificial male second lead, Li Jiahao, has arrived.】

The Pei family, Lin Qing, and the Lou father and son looked at Li Jiahao.

Li Jiahao first helped Xia Xuechun to her feet, then spoke resolutely: "Xia Xuechun did something wrong, but let's talk about it objectively. It's also because this woman hit Xia Xuechun first that she retaliated. You were wrong first, you can't use your money to bully people!"

Others rolled their eyes dramatically.

Old Master Zhao frowned disapprovingly: "Can these two kids not tell right from wrong?"

Qiao Chuchu raises the corner of her mouth: "Right and wrong are in people's hearts, you said you'd pay, so pay up."

She looked at the woman in red wine: "You were hit three times, and you slapped her once. According to the price of three thousand per slap, seventy thousand plus six thousand, seventy-six thousand, can you accept that?"

The woman in red wine was flattered.

This girl is the eighth daughter of the Qiao family, right?

It's such a blessing that she could help the Qiao family's eighth daughter!

She nodded eagerly: "Yes."

Qiao Chuchu smiled at Li Jiahao: "Seventy-six thousand, pay up."

Li Jiahao was shocked: "Wait, wasn't it sixty-seven thousand just now?"

Qiao Chuchu nodded: "Yes, we calculated it at three thousand per slap. Xia Xuechun hit this lady three times, and the lady hit Xia Xuechun once. The dress is seventy thousand, so seventy-six thousand is correct. If you don't want to calculate it that way, you can also let this lady pay you three thousand, and you pay her seventy-nine thousand, it's the same."

Li Jiahao's mouth twitched, clenching his fists.

Xia Xuechun bit her lower lip, her eyes red, looking like she was about to cry.

Qiao Chuchu smiled faintly: "Unfortunately, there can't be any discounts, after all, Xia Xuechun's favorite dignity definitely doesn't allow for discounts."

The venue burst into laughter again!

Li Jiahao's face turned red, fumbling with his phone: "Give me the account number."

The woman in red wine took out her purse and handed him the card.

Lou Yuejue laughed loudly: "Dad, Qiao Chuchu is quite interesting."

Lou Tingsi nodded with a smile.

Pei Yuan praised: "It seems that after so many years not living with Qiao Chuchu, she's not useless after all."

Pei Youchuan was proud: "Our sister, of course, is like us."

The other brothers couldn't help but agree.

Lin Qing whistled: "Nice one, Chuchu! So cool!"

Applause thundered, even Old Master Zhao was beaming, clapping for Qiao Chuchu.

Finally, amidst the applause and cheers, Li Jiahao transferred all his savings plus all the credit from his loan app, totaling seventy-six thousand, to the woman in red wine.

The woman in red wine smiled: "Very well, I received it."

Li Jiahao's face turned red, glaring resentfully at Qiao Chuchu, dragging Xia Xuechun away.

Xia Xuechun seemed to want to fix her gaze on Qiao Chuchu, reluctantly being dragged away.

The venue instantly erupted in cheers: "OHHHHHH!~"

Lin Qing directly pounced on Qiao Chuchu: "Nice one, Chuchu, I thought you were a little softie, turns out you've got some spirit!~"

Qiao Chuchu was proud: "That's right~"

She had long known that such a plot would happen, and had been imagining in her mind what she would do if she were there.

Because the original ending was that after things escalated, the male lead appeared and shielded Xia Xuechun from this lady.

The lady, having suffered a silent loss, couldn't match the male lead's economic strength, lost the seventy-thousand dress without compensation, and cried in grievance.

Xia Xuechun got the upper hand and acted spoiled, feeling that rich people were all bad, going crazy at the male lead, accusing him and the lady in red wine of not being good people.

Clearly, she was the one at fault, but she could comfortably shift the blame onto others, turning herself into the biggest victim.

The lady in red wine was really a big sacrificial character.

So thinking of this ending, she couldn't help but intervene.

The woman in red wine came to her: "Thank you, Miss Qiao, if you don't mind, can we exchange contact information and have a meal together another day?"

Qiao Chuchu gladly agreed, exchanging contact information.

The woman in red wine's eyes lit up: "Thank you for today's help, I will thank you, I'll go change my clothes first."

Qiao Chuchu smiled and watched her leave, Old Master Zhao following: "It's been a long time since I've seen Chuchu, not only has she grown so graceful, but she's also become much smarter!"

Qiao Chuchu was delighted, hugging Grandpa Zhao: "Grandpa Zhao!~"
