Chapter 96: Why Not?

Cheng Li comforted herself, then looked at Jiang Xue and said, "Little Xue, I don’t know why you want to do this to me, but I can tell you that I really didn’t take your letter."
"Since you really didn’t take it, then make a vow as I just said. If you swear, I’ll naturally believe you. If you don’t dare, then it means you took the letter. If that’s the case, I’ll have to invite the village chief to come over."
Jiang Xue was certain the letter was in Cheng Li’s hands, and she was sure Cheng Li still kept it. Although she didn’t know why Cheng Li took her letter, it didn’t mean she didn’t understand Cheng Li.
Listening to Jiang Xue’s threatening words, Cheng Li’s face became increasingly unsightly. If the village chief learned about this, would she still have a good life in the village?
Currently, her and her mother’s decent life in the village solely relied on the village chief’s son liking her. The village chief also treated her and her mother well because of his son’s affection for her.
"Cheng Li, we don’t have much time, so you’d better quickly decide whether to swear or bring out the letter."
Cheng Li thought about it and finally decided to make the vow.
