Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2536: Chapter 2472: To Provoke Them

Chiang Xiao and Meng Xinian exchanged a glance.

Is she half-mad, half-awake?

Or does she only remember what she wants to remember?

”Brother Xinian, according to what she says, Nian Che is very skilled in martial arts? But why didn’t he fight back at all when I took action that day?”

Moreover, she even said that there are many people who are good at fighting and listen to him.

In this case, their assumption was indeed correct.

”He was acting, so that day he was just trying to provoke us, it seems. In this light, he might really be colluding with Hu Xiangyong.”

Over the years outside, whatever people Nian Che met, or whatever things he did, they had no idea.

That he met and colluded with Hu Xiangyong seemed quite normal.

Moreover, Hu Xiangyong also knows Meng Xinian.

They tried several times and found out that Chen Zhu indeed seemed somewhat mentally unstable.

What she remembers is Nian Che, always remembering that she is Nian Che’s fiancée, remembers her own name is Chen Zhu, remembers Nian Che promised to take her to treat her face, and also to marry her.

But she remembers nothing else.

She doesn’t remember Chiang Xiao, doesn’t remember Kuang Kanzhi, doesn’t remember Ah Liu, nor does she remember what humiliations she suffered back then.

Chiang Xiao wanted to ask her what happened back then, but she was incoherent.

She kept saying that her daughter was dead, that she died a long time ago, and that she buried her with her own hands, saying she buried her on Bai Gu Mountain, and since no one dared to go up there, no one would find out.

”What about me, who am I? Where did you pick up a child from!”

Chiang Xiao was so furious she wanted to kick her.

Chen Zhu looked at her, somewhat confused.

”Even you don’t know who you are? Why ask me?”

”Chen Zhu!” Chiang Xiao clenched her fists, ”Did you steal someone else’s child back then?”

If she didn’t steal someone else’s child, why would she have ended up with Chen Zhu?

But then, how did that woman relate to Ah Liu?

Upon hearing these words, Chen Zhu couldn’t help but shrink back a bit.

Seeing this reaction, Meng Xinian knew that she still remembered this matter.

”The child’s mother is coming to look for you now.” He added coldly.

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhu immediately started shouting.

”Don’t come looking for me! At that time, she herself was about to die, and the child was crying from hunger. If I hadn’t brought the child home, she would have starved to death following her! I was helping her; I saved that child! Why come looking for me?”

While shouting, she crawled under the table, curling up completely beneath it.

Perhaps because she knew herself she had gone too far with this incident back then, it had always been lurking in her heart, so even now, although somewhat deranged, she still couldn’t shake off the feeling of guilt.

She was truly afraid that woman would come looking for her.

”If you explain what happened clearly, I’ll help you drive that woman away, how about that?” Meng Xinian said in a deep voice.

At the same time, he held Chiang Xiao tightly.

Chiang Xiao almost couldn’t hold back from wanting to drag her out and give her a good beating.

What nonsense is she spouting?

Taking someone else’s child, and then claiming to have saved her?

Under Meng Xinian’s skillful interrogation, although Chen Zhu spoke in bits and pieces, and sometimes incoherently, she eventually clarified what happened back then.

She did indeed have a daughter, and that child might have taken after her, looking as delicate as a jade sculpture when she was just born, but Chen Zhu had seen the face of the vagrant who violated her. His terrifying appearance haunted her dreams every night.

She was terribly afraid and worried that the child would grow up to be like that man, so in such a mental state, Chen Zhu even had several impulses to strangle the child to death.
