Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 1098: Chapter 1110: Not Worthy

Thinking of that kind-hearted woman, Jia Chenggang could only feel the injustice of the world.

”Since that’s the case, let me ask you, on the day of the performance, what did Wang Xia do to you? Even if what she did was a bit excessive, she didn’t harm you, did she? Why are you being so unforgiving and ruthless, driving her into a corner? Wang Xia has no support, no job, her and Rong’s life depends on those subsidies. Isn’t it a bit too much to make a fuss and get her subsidies taken away?”

”Ha,” An Ran couldn’t help but scoff, so that’s the root of it.

That day seeing Wang Xia, she already found it strange. Haigang has been gone for so many years; even if there are family activities, it shouldn’t be her turn. It was even more unlikely for Hairong to come over here to study.

Leaving behind the educational conditions of the Imperial City to study in a small city like Nan’an?

Wang Xia’s excuses weren’t even worth listening to.

Later seeing how Jia Chenggang took good care of that mother and son, knowing Hairong got into the elementary school here through Jia Chenggang’s helping hand, it’s clear Jia Chenggang harbors feelings for Wang Xia.

But Wang Xia didn’t cherish Jia Chenggang, her mind was solely on Mu Xingfeng, a married man, scheming to trap Captain Li. She brought her own ruin when the plot was exposed. Who’s to blame for that? Blame her, An Ran?

If it weren’t for her vigilance back then, people’s gossip wouldn’t just involve her and Liu Hu’s fabricated rumors now.

She truly couldn’t understand where Jia Chenggang’s logic was coming from.

Without waiting for An Ran to respond, Jia Chenggang continued, ”Even if Wang Xia was wrong, as a family member, shouldn’t you forgive her for Haigang’s sake? Aren’t you afraid you’ll end up in a situation like Wang Xia one day?”

”Pa—”

Before Jia Chenggang could finish speaking, An Ran slapped him hard on the face.

This slap was too sudden; the delicate girl who appeared calm earlier now exuded a chilling aura, so much so that he, a professional team member, didn’t even have a chance to dodge.

Neither Mu Xingfeng nor Liu Hu expected An Ran to react like this, though they had wanted to do the same to Jia Chenggang for a long time.

”Captain Jia, I’d like to remind you that Wang Xia is an adult too. Adults must be responsible for their actions. She tried to use Captain Li to achieve her unspeakable goals, and regardless of the outcome, her actions not only breached moral Bottom Line but also violated the law. The team has already shown leniency because of her identity, so does she expect others to pay for her mistakes? Moreover, just for what you said last, you don’t deserve to be a qualified team member.”

Saying she’d end up like Wang Xia, wasn’t that cursing Mu Xingfeng?

An Ran could endure the slanderous rumors against her, but such remarks were intolerable.

After being punched by Liu Hu and Mu Xingfeng, now being slapped by a girl who knows nothing, even though the onlookers had dispersed by this point, Jia Chenggang’s face still burned with anger. What’s even more infuriating was this woman claiming he didn’t deserve to be a team member.

For seven years, Jia Chenggang had been diligent and dutiful, successfully completing countless tasks big and small, yet the person across from him said he didn’t deserve to be a team member.

If it weren’t for considering Mu Xingfeng and Liu Hu, he really wanted to teach this insolent girl a lesson.
