Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 642: Chapter 643: Carrying It for Her

”Comrade, your statement has serious problems!”

”What’s wrong with what I said?” Old Huang challenged.

”You claim Chiang Xiao bit Wu Zhiyuan—did you see it? Have you found any eyewitnesses?”

”It was Wu Zhiyuan himself who reported the incident; he said...”

”Isn’t that ridiculous? What were you raised on? Do you take everything a reporter says as evidence? If that’s the case, what do we need you for? Isn’t an investigation necessary?” Meng Xinian was furious, ”Furthermore, even if Chiang Xiao is a suspect, listen, that’s all she is, a suspect. She hasn’t been convicted, and she didn’t violently resist. Who gave you such authority to be rough with a young girl? I’m telling you, I’m taking her to the hospital for an examination. If there’s even a single bruise on her, even if it’s just a finger mark that’s turned purple or red, I’ll sue you. Since I’m the one reporting, according to your logic, everything I say is evidence too!”

Old Huang was left speechless, his face sour.

He suddenly remembered that when Old Wang had brought her in earlier, he had indeed been rough. The young girl had delicate skin; it was quite possible she might have some red marks on her body.

They were indeed at a disadvantage here.

However, seeing Old Wang’s current condition, he immediately retorted: ”But you hit Old Wang too! Such behavior...”

”My action was to save someone, understand? When I arrived, I saw him laying his hands on Chiang Xiao. I went over just to push him aside. I wanted to avoid more conflict, and I was afraid my own punches were too heavy and might kill him outright, so I kicked him away a bit. What’s wrong with that?”

Meng Xinian said with an expressionless face.

Shameless, utterly shameless.

Listening to his words, Zheng Yucheng was sweating profusely.

What kind of reasoning is that?

Kicking someone for their own good?

Who raised such a shameless man?

Old Huang too was so enraged that he nearly couldn’t catch his breath.

Chiang Xiao, sitting beside him, could feel the cold and fierce aura emanating from this man.

Such a demeanor should have been frightening, but for some reason, she felt incredibly reassured and secure.

She didn’t even need to speak up; he was willing to shoulder everything for her.

Against the likes of Ho Laidi, Zhang Xiaomei, and others who threw tantrums, she could fight without feeling any guilt, but she couldn’t do the same to Old Wang and Old Huang.

Now, with Meng Xinian beside her, she suddenly found his bullishness adorably charming for the first time!

”And her, she caused a riot at the public security station before, and hit someone. The person she hit can’t even stand up straight now!” Old Huang added.

Chiang Xiao raised her eyebrows, about to reply, but Meng Xinian patted her shoulder and asked, ”Besides them, did anyone else bully you?”

Certainly, someone must have bullied her; how else could the cat have lashed out for no good reason?

Although she really did have a bad temper and was quite fierce, she had the merit of not striking first. If she did hit someone, it surely meant she was provoked!

”Yeah, remember the woman who insisted on antagonizing me that day? The second Chun Yu, remember?” Chiang Xiao looked at him, raising her eyebrows.

Meng Xinian: ”...”

He had nothing to say, nor could he say anything out of place.

Uncle Ming coughed and said, ”I did witness that incident personally. That was Zhang Xiaomei.”

The moment Zhang Xiaomei’s name was mentioned, Director Song’s face became rather ugly: ”She’s causing trouble again?”
