Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 3143: Chapter 3079: At Loggerheads

Later, Old Meng also helped her find the neighbors from that day and already spoke with them, asking them to come forward if testimony is needed.

Old Meng has decent connections in the compound, plus Meng Xinian is currently quite influential. If they say something, people are willing to do them this favor.

As for the Gao Family, isn’t that also a matter to see what the truth is about the situation with that woman Nian Mutong?

Gao Ming and his spouse have always been quite arrogant, and it is blatantly obvious they cater only to those in power. Honestly, they are intimidating at ordinary times, but in such situations, they might just add fuel to the fire.

”At that time, I didn’t understand what was going on, what happened, but I don’t want to make more trouble with you. Just tell me how much money you want, I’ll give it to you, and then you shouldn’t make a fuss anymore, okay?”

While Gao Ming was speaking, he took out his wallet.

”How can you talk as if I’m being unreasonable, demanding money from you?” Jiang Xiao pouted and said, ”I’m not lacking money at all, I’m here to get justice for Snow Ball. Alliance Officer Gao paid this money, and I also want Nian Mutong to apologize and repent to our Snow Ball face-to-face.”

So this matter can’t just be brushed away.

Gao Ming took a deep breath.

He knew that nothing good would come from Jiang Xiao’s involvement, and exactly as expected.

If only she could have come just one minute later, even just one minute!

At this moment, Gao Ming regretted not walking faster earlier; even a minute quicker would have been better, or maybe talked faster with Cui Zhenyan.

Anyway, no matter what, it would have been best to vie for that one minute.

But now it’s all come to this, what good will regret do?

Gao Ming simply ignored Jiang Xiao and turned to Cui Zhenyan, saying in a low voice, ”Officer Cui, just sign the application, and I’ll leave then.”

Jiang Xiao looked at Cui Zhenyan, ”Officer Cui, I’d like to apply too. If I don’t meet the requirements, can I ask my aunt to apply on my behalf?”

”Your aunt...”

”That’s Comrade Jiang Yingqiong, Li Hanzhong’s wife.”

Cui Zhenyan rubbed his forehead.

Well, now both parties are genuinely setting up a confrontation, aren’t they?

”Jiang Xiao, are you sure you really want this?” Gao Ming’s face turned pale.

Indeed, if Jiang Xiao gets involved, who knows what will happen? Her involvement shattered the confident victory he was certain of before the application was settled.

If Lu Zhenggang finds out he failed to handle this, who knows how furious he’d be.

He had been so confident in front of Lu Zhenggang.

Luckily, he has a habit of not burning all bridges until the last step, leaving himself a bit of room.

But what can be done now?

”I look forward to holding a wedding at Zhongming Hall,” Jiang Xiao said.

Their gazes collided in the air, Gao Ming’s eyes darkened, while Jiang Xiao’s were bright.

Cui Zhenyan glanced at one, then the other, feeling as if he was watching a drama.

He couldn’t believe Jiang Xiao could indeed oppose Gao Ming like this.

Gao Ming looked again at Cui Zhenyan, ”Officer Cui, what do you say? We agreed earlier, you need to consider carefully.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiao’s gaze deepened.

As she suspected, Gao Ming must have something to threaten Cui Zhenyan with, forcing him to agree to their demands.
