Mrs. Chen's voice was sharp. "That's nonsense! My sister isn't on Xingguang Island; she's in M Country. How could it be her?"
Si Mingjing had been waiting for those very words! With strategic command, her voice sharp with resolve, she said, "Mrs. Chen, are you sure your sister isn't on Xingguang Island? I advise you to think carefully before you speak!"
"Of... of course she's not!"
After Mrs. Chen spoke, her heart skipped a beat. She felt that events had long since spiraled beyond her imagination, but she could never admit it.
"Say it again!" Si Mingjing demanded.
For Mrs. Chen, such repetition was absolute psychological torture. Her mind buzzed, her thoughts in complete disarray. She hastily said, "I won't pursue it any further! I won't pursue it any further! Just consider me unlucky today!"
She bid a panicked farewell and fled. Si Mingjing sneered. It wouldn't be that easy.
