CHAPTER 176: CHAPTER 176: TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE (7)

"No one but you would want me to lose!"

Qiao Mo remained composed, speaking calmly, "I understand you’re upset about your design being ruined, but please don’t make baseless accusations. If it were really me, I wouldn’t strike in the first round, I’d wait until the final round."

Shen Tingting was momentarily stunned, seemingly grasping Qiao Mo’s implication...

Indeed, with Qiao Mo’s capabilities, there was no need for her to employ such tactics.

But she only hesitated for a moment before coming back to her senses!

Her clothes were destroyed, so why should Qiao Mo still be able to continue the competition!

"It must be because you’re resentful that my father didn’t help the Qiao family before, that’s why you’re deliberately opposing me, ruining my design. We’ve been like sisters, I never thought you’d hate me this much!" Shen Tingting’s eyes brimmed with tears, her previous rage disappearing in an instant, turning into a pitiable sight.

A trace of mockery flickered in Qiao Mo’s eyes, instantly seeing through Shen Tingting’s intentions.

So, was she trying to drag her down just because her clothes were ruined?

Ha, that really was in line with her usual style!

"Qiao Mo, you say it’s not you, but you were the only one in the classroom before we came in. Tingting’s clothes were fine when she left yesterday, how do you explain that!" Yu Xiaoqin stood out again, still with an air of arrogance.

Qiao Mo’s gaze fell on her, her thin lips curving into a slight smile.

If she remembered correctly, last time Shen Tingting gave Yu Xiaoqin three days, and though it had already been a week, she was still at the school.

But there was no rush, it was time for her to pack up and leave today!

Seeing Qiao Mo remain silent, Yu Xiaoqin promptly stood up and spoke again, "What? Got nothing to say? You were the only one here before we came in! Who else could it be but you!"

As soon as she finished, a few friends of Shen Tingting’s began to echo, "I never thought Qiao Mo would be like this, doing anything to win!"

"Exactly, I didn’t expect she’d stoop to such base actions, yet Professor Han still thinks so highly of her!"

"Maybe it’s because the Qiao family has declined, after all, they aren’t doing well now. If she can’t secure the championship, there’s no chance for her to turn things around!"

...

Voices of agreement arose, yet many remained silent, seemingly waiting for Qiao Mo to defend herself.

"Yes, I was indeed the first to arrive at the classroom, but the door was open before I got there. When I came in, Shen Tingting’s wardrobe was already like this. Even though I was the only one, it doesn’t prove I ruined her clothes." Qiao Mo spoke unhurriedly.

As soon as she finished, Professor Han and two other professors seem to have heard the news, rushing in, immediately noticing the clothes thrown on the table.

As soon as Professor Han appeared, Yu Xiaoqin immediately spoke up, "Professor, Qiao Mo cut up Tingting’s riding clothes!"

Professor Han furrowed his brow, stepping forward to examine the damaged black riding outfit and white shirt, glancing at Qiao Mo, then at Shen Tingting who was sipping quietly, without saying a word.

"Go check the entryway surveillance first." Professor Han didn’t immediately question.

In a short while, a student spoke up, "Professor, the surveillance footage is here. After the door was locked yesterday, only Qiao Mo came this morning."

Professor Han furrowed his brow, looking silently at Shen Tingting’s vandalized riding outfit, seemingly deep in thought.
