“Someone, help!” Wu Mei couldn’t be bothered to argue with Qin Miaomiao and quickly shouted for help.

Lu Shiyan was the first to appear and he frowned when he saw a few people jumping into the water before he even got close. Soon, Madam Lu and Mr. Lu rushed over after hearing the commotion. They stood by the shore and watched as Qin Youyou was rescued.

“Youyou, how are you?” Qin Hai leaned over with concern and helped Qin Youyou up.

When Qin Miaomiao saw this scene, she felt that it was ironic.

“Ahem.” Qin Youyou spat out a few mouthfuls of water and slowly woke up, but her face was still pale. After all, it was cold water. Although she had discussed with Qin Hai in advance that someone would come out to save her the moment she fell, she still choked on a few mouthfuls of water.

“Shiyan… Shiyan, I’m so scared. Why did my sister harm me…” Qin Youyou’s eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Lu Shiyan aggrievedly. She had the urge to throw herself into Lu Shiyan’s arms and cry.

Unfortunately, Qin Youyou’s fragile appearance didn’t arouse Lu Shiyan’s protectiveness. Lu Shiyan didn’t say anything and only frowned as he glanced at Qin Miaomiao. Although they had not interacted for long, he could tell that Qin Miaomiao was someone who disdained doing such things.

“Don’t be afraid, Youyou. I will definitely stand up for you!” Seeing that Lu Shiyan wasn’t taking the bait, Qin Hai started to get anxious. He turned around and glared at Qin Miaomiao. “Qin Miaomiao, are you so intolerant of your sister? If I hadn’t come over when I heard the sound, your sister would have… How could our family have a daughter like you?!”

“President Qin, you’re wrong. I already severed our father-daughter relationship, so you’re not my father,” Qin Miaomiao said. Her words angered Qin Hai so much that he almost had a heart attack.

Seeing that Qin Hai was at a disadvantage, Qin Youyou quickly said, “Shiyan, don’t blame my sister too much. She definitely didn’t do it on purpose…” As she spoke, she pretended to lose her balance and was about to fall into Lu Shiyan’s arms, but Madam Lu quickly held her. “Qin Youyou, you said that Miaomiao pushed you, but do you have evidence? Or is this just your side of the story?”

“Madam Lu, you’re wrong. At that time, only Youyou and Qin Miaomiao were here. If Qin Miaomiao didn’t push her, did Youyou fall down herself?” Qin Hai helped Qin Youyou out.

At this moment, Qin Miaomiao, who had been watching, suddenly sneered. Everyone looked at her. Qin Hai and Qin Youyou were stunned.

“Qin Xiaoshu, come out,” Qin Miaomiao said indifferently as she turned to look at the locust tree. The trunk of the locust tree was very thick, and a small head poked out from behind it. Qin Xiaoshu secretly glanced at his mommy before jumping out. “Mommy!” He hugged the tablet as he ran to Qin Miaomiao’s side.

“Did you record what happened just now?” Qin Miaomiao rubbed Qin Xiaoshu’s head. The reason she was standing under the locust tree just now was to block Qin Xiaoshu and prevent him from being seen by Qin Youyou.

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaoshu immediately tapped on the tablet and quickly found a video. After he clicked on the video, the scene of Qin Miaomiao and Qin Youyou standing by the river appeared in front of everyone. As the wind by the river was strong, it couldn’t record the voices clearly. However, they could see that Qin Youyou suddenly reached out to grab Qin Miaomiao and fell into the water.

When they saw this video, Qin Youyou and Qin Hai’s expressions changed drastically.

“Shiyan, I was too afraid and mistakenly thought that Qin Miaomiao was the one who pushed me. I grabbed her because I slipped and thought that Qin Miaomiao could hold me back. Shiyan, you have to believe me…” Qin Youyou was so anxious that she forgot to pretend to be weak. Damn it, she actually didn’t notice that little bastard hiding there!

“This… So I’ve misunderstood. However, Qin Miaomiao, you could have dragged Youyou back. Why didn’t you help and even pushed her in instead?” Qin Hai smiled awkwardly and even found an excuse to blame Qin Miaomiao.

“Why didn’t I save Qin Youyou? Ask your good daughter. Ask her why I would want to save her.” Qin Miaomiao sneered as her gaze landed on Qin Youyou’s face. Upon being stared at by Qin Miaomiao like this, Qin Youyou lowered her head. She felt that Qin Miaomiao’s gaze was so sharp that it was as if she could burn a hole in her face.

“Shiyan, I accidentally fell into the river. It has nothing to do with my sister.” Qin Youyou had no choice but to explain to Lu Shiyan. However, Lu Shiyan’s expression remained dark.
