CHAPTER 171: CHAPTER 171: TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE (2)

"Xiao Mo, where have you been lately? I heard you got injured at the stables," Yu Qianxun asked softly.

Qiao Mo exhaled lightly, "Yes, I fell off the horse and got a minor injury."

"How is it? Are you okay? I heard a man saved you."

"Yes... that’s true."

Qiao Mo hesitated, not really wanting to bring up Fu Nancheng. Although she had a decent relationship with Qianxun, her relationship with Fu Nancheng was anything but honorable.

Yu Qianxun studied Qiao Mo’s expression and couldn’t help but ask again, "I heard... that person was Fu Nancheng?"

Qiao Mo was slightly taken aback, not expecting Qianxun to know already, so she nodded.

"Will he help save Uncle Qiao?"

Qiao Mo shook her head, "No, I asked him, but he refused to help."

Yu Qianxun seemed like she wanted to ask more, but Qiao Mo interrupted softly, "It’s starting now..."

Upon hearing that, Yu Qianxun had no choice but to stop, and both of them listened attentively to the lecture.

The lecture lasted about two and a half hours, ending quite early.

Qiao Mo hadn’t walked far when she heard a pleading voice in the shade of a grove. It wasn’t loud, but to Qiao Mo, it was very familiar, recognizing Shen Tingting’s voice even from a distance.

"Tingting... don’t drive me away! Please give me another chance! Just one more chance!" Yu Xiaoqin pleaded anxiously, following beside Shen Tingting.

Shen Tingting frowned, looked around, a bit impatient.

"Tingting... we almost succeeded last time, you can’t blame me for messing up!"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Mo was slightly startled and moved a few steps closer.

"I don’t care if you succeeded or not, but I remember saying, in this school, if you’re here, then Qiao Mo isn’t, and if she is, then you aren’t!" Shen Tingting glanced around and spoke in a low voice.

"But if it wasn’t for Fu Nancheng, Qiao Mo would have certainly been seriously injured! I didn’t expect a man to suddenly appear and save her!"

Whenever Fu Nancheng was mentioned, Shen Tingting’s expression turned even sourer.

She didn’t even know how to get in touch with him again!

After returning home, she had asked around, but still hadn’t gotten his number. She really couldn’t figure out how Qiao Mo got to know him!

Thinking of this made Shen Tingting feel a bit annoyed.

She couldn’t tell if Qiao Mo had known him for a long time or if they met later.

But judging by how Fu Nancheng saved her that day, he apparently cared a lot about her.

She regretted tearing things up with Qiao Mo too early; at the very least, she should have known how Qiao Mo got acquainted with Fu Nancheng.

"Tingting, you really can’t blame me this time! If Fu Nancheng hadn’t suddenly appeared..."

"Enough! Shut up! How dare you bring this up again? If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have lost face that day!"

Shen Tingting scolded softly, leaving Qiao Mo somewhat puzzled.

Lost face?

Didn’t she get Fu Nancheng’s number?

But then, Qiao Mo felt somewhat self-mocking; it turned out the incident at the stables was indeed orchestrated by the two of them. She had naively thought that even if they hated her, they wouldn’t resort to something akin to attempted murder!

Just as Yu Xiaoqin was about to defend herself, Shen Tingting warned her again, "Yu Xiaoqin! Stop wasting words with me, I’ve already given you a chance. Now that Qiao Mo is here today, you’d better pack your things and get out!"

"Tingting... Tingting! Give me a few more days, a week! Just a week, please!"
