Chapter 199: Shifting the blame
Qi Liancheng didn't care. After all, he would never touch his sister's things.
However, Lin Ge's thoughts started to stir: Master's work? Wouldn't that mean he would win an award later? If the master could add his name to his acceptance speech then...
After all, I have served as a soldier under the master for so long, I can't just end up with nothing, right?
Lin Ge's mind moved, and then he pinched his throat and said in a pretentious manner: "Liancheng, Nana said this is her master's work. I also worked in the textile factory for a few days before, and I also want to appreciate the master's work."
"Don't worry, I won't mess around. It's just that the master is half my master. This work must have my hand in it. I want to appreciate my efforts."
Qi Liancheng was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Lin Ge had only worked there for a few days, but he could be appreciated by the master. He began to look at Lin Ge with a new respect.
However, he seemed to have forgotten that this job was stolen by Lin Ge from Li Luo, and he had never heard Qi Nana talk about Lin Ge's previous shameful deeds.
However, it was too difficult for him to interfere in his sister's affairs.
"This is not good. After all, it's Nana's thing. If we break it, I'm afraid we won't be able to take responsibility."
"Brother Liancheng, believe me, if there is anything that is not well embroidered, I can add some details to it. When the master's work wins an award, I can also mention our Nana."
Lin Ge's words really moved Qi Liancheng. After all, being the master's apprentice was just an empty title. But if his sister's name was included in the entry, it would be such an honor for the family!
Thinking of this, Qi Liancheng's heart became active. It would not lose anything if he just took a look around, so he agreed to Lin Ge's request.
When Lin Ge unfolded the embroidery, Qi Liancheng couldn't take his eyes off it. It looked like a work that could surpass all other embroidery works of the same period.
"Could it be possible that it can be submitted already? I see all the details have been taken care of. Could it be that Nana is going to submit the work now?" Lin Ge guessed.
"You see, this idea was proposed by me, and this thread was prepared by me for my master..." When Lin Ge talked about his own contribution, he almost took all the credit for the entire work.
When Qi Nana came out, Lin Ge was still commenting on the entire work.
"Who told you to touch my things? Didn't I tell you? Brother, you just promised me solemnly that you would not touch my things!" When Qi Nana saw the embroidery being opened, her blood pressure suddenly rose.
"We just took a look and didn't do anything to the embroidery. Why are you so fierce?" Qi Liancheng was a little depressed after being scolded by Qi Nana. Then he felt wronged and defended himself forcefully.
"Just 'took a look' and 'didn't do anything to the embroidery'? Brother, don't you think that your words are contradictory?" Qi Nana sneered.
"Nana, don't blame your brother. This is all my fault. I was the one who insisted on asking Brother Liancheng to see the master's work. If you are angry and want to hit me or scold me, I will accept it."
Lin Ge took the opportunity to speak in a wronged tone, taking all the blame on himself.
"Of course it's your fault, you bitch, don't you understand what I'm saying? If there's even the slightest flaw in this embroidery, the master will definitely hold you responsible!"
Qi Nana didn't give Lin Ge any face at all and directly exposed Lin Ge's hypocritical face.
Lin Ge withdrew her hand reluctantly, and the embroidery in her hand fell to the ground.
Even though Qi Nana was quick-eyed and quick-handed, she was still unable to save the embroidery.
There are patterns on the embroidery. If it is stained with dust and washed, the patterns will disappear. At that time, even a master will not be able to find the original stitches. "Lin Ge, did you do this on purpose? Don't you want me and Master to have a good life?" Qi Nana's eyes were red, and she grabbed Lin Ge's collar and questioned.
"I...I really didn't mean it. Believe me, Brother Liancheng. I, I was just scared by Nana. You know that, right?"
Faced with the angry Qi Nana, Qi Liancheng just wanted to escape from the scene of the outbreak as soon as possible, but Lin Ge was ungrateful and insisted on dragging him into the battlefield.
"I didn't see anything, Lin Ge. This is all your fault. I told you at the beginning that this embroidery belongs to my sister and I didn't allow you to touch it. But you didn't listen. Now that you have caused trouble, you should take responsibility!"
Qi Liancheng took the opportunity to completely shirk his responsibility.
Lin Ge was completely dumbfounded. How come in the end, all the faults fell on him?
"Nana, you, me, it's all my fault. You can ask me to do anything you want..." Lin Ge bit his lips, tears welled up in his eyes, and anyone who saw it would be moved.
"Then you should restore this embroidery to its original state. It's dirty now, and you can't wash it with water!" Qi Nana suppressed the anger in her heart and let Lin Ge find a solution.
Lin Ge never could have imagined that he was just pretending to be pitiful in order to win Qi Liancheng's sympathy.
Sure enough, seeing Qi Nana start to become aggressive, Qi Liancheng was unwilling to do so: "Isn't it just a drop on the ground? Is it necessary to mobilize so many troops?"
"Since you are the master's apprentice, wouldn't it be fine if you explain it to the master? At worst, our Qi family can buy the work no matter how much it costs." Qi Liancheng said impatiently.
"Buy it? Okay, my master's work is priceless. If you want to buy it, then you can buy it at the previous auction price of 200,000."
"Two hundred thousand, why don't you go rob the money?" Lin Ge was stunned.
Even if she were sold, the two hundred thousand would not be worth this price. Perhaps even among the rich people she knew, only Ling Zhuoqun could afford this money, and the prerequisite was that he had to pay for the Ling family's wall.
"What? Brother, are you still going to risk your life for your beloved?" A sneer appeared on Qi Nana's lips.
Lin Ge was simply unable to accomplish anything and was more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything. Could such an impetuous girl really get into college? Qi Nana was deeply skeptical about Lin Ge's future.
Qi Liancheng: “…”
He didn't know either, but if he wanted to buy this thing, he would have to empty his family's savings. He had some money, but he was not a fool. He would not pay for other people's mistakes.
"This embroidery was dropped by Lin Ge, so naturally Lin Ge has to pay for it." Qi Liancheng quickly put the blame that he had taken on himself onto Lin Ge.
Lin Ge looked at Qi Liancheng in disbelief. This was the man who had just vowed to support him? Why did he become a coward when it came to paying money?
When it comes to protecting women, Qi Liancheng really isn't as good as Ling Zhuoqun.
