Chapter 259 His Journey to Chasing His Wife Won’t Be Any Easier
Kong Jiaxiang was not too surprised to hear Mr. Chu say this, because he had always protected Chu Yunting in this way before.
But things are different now. In just a few years, the world has changed dramatically. The world today is not as effective as the old man said.
Kong Jiaxiang stopped Mr. Chu again.
"Grandpa Chu, this is all a misunderstanding. Even if Zhu Chang's words were inappropriate, it was this woman who claimed to be your granddaughter who started it first.
Look, both sides are at fault, wouldn't it be better if both sides took a step back and everything was fine?"
Chu Xin sneered, looked at him calmly, and said in a cold and indifferent voice,
"Isn't this normal? He got beaten because he was mean-spirited. Didn't he suffer the consequences?
Besides, he should be thankful that I didn't actually hit him."
Otherwise, someone like Zhu Chang wouldn't be glaring at her here.
Kong Jiaxiang was very angry at the Chu family's behavior of not buying face. He wanted to say something else but was interrupted by Zhou Yichen.
"This is someone else's family matter. Which neighborhood department does Comrade Kong work for? Why is he so keen on mediation?"
"Exactly! What's your business?"
Now, Mr. Chu no longer disliked Zhou Yichen.
Kong Jiaxiang was so angry at Zhou Yichen's secret bullying that he could no longer maintain a friendly expression on his face, and his image was in danger of collapsing.
He secretly complained that Zhou Yichen was going too far. In the past, the Kong family was not as good as the Zhou family, so he could tolerate it, but he would not do that now.
"Zhou Yichen, we're all acquaintances. We'll meet each other sooner or later. You're deliberately trying to incite disunity among us!"
Chu Xin couldn't bear to see people playing tricks on her.
"Alright, you don't have the final say on whether the group is united or not. Besides, who's right and who's wrong? We have to ask the police to judge. What are you all saying here? Or do you want the Public Security Bureau chief to do it for you?"
Kong Jiaxiang...
This woman has a very poisonous mouth.
Mr. Zhou's guard had already discussed the situation with the police officer in charge of the case, and now he said:
"I've already checked with the police. It was Comrade Zhu who verbally insulted the heroes of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, which is why he was punished by Comrade Chu. The diners at the state-owned restaurant today can all testify to this."
"Destroying unity and slandering heroes is a serious crime. Whether you go to jail or get demoted depends on what the Chu family says."
Zhu Chang was the first to object, "How can he be called a hero of the War of Resistance? He clearly died... like that!"
Chu Yunting was furious that his father's death was being spread around by these people without any respect.
"Oh, you idiots who are still living on your family's support, who were sent abroad to gild their reputations, and who only know how to eat, drink and have fun when you return home, how could you possibly know that my father had already cleared his name!
He was framed, you have no right to judge his right or wrong!"
"Rectify the name, what name?"
Zhu Chang was confused, and Kong Jiaxiang was not much better, but he had brains and it was not appropriate for him to say anything more.
He had heard from his father that Mr. Chu had been demoted, but he didn't know what exactly happened.
Now it seems that it is about Chu Yunting's father? Then why was he demoted?
Zhou Yichen glanced at the people whose expressions changed, and said in a solemn and serious tone,
"After investigation, it was confirmed by higher authorities that Chu Yunting's father was indeed murdered intentionally by the enemy. Moreover, he was not the only victim back then. I hope you all have some common sense and don't fabricate rumors to harm others.
Otherwise, who knows who will be reported and demoted. Do you think it will be Comrade Kong?
After all, your family is an authority in this area."
Kong Jiaxiang was silent for a moment, then quickly adjusted his attitude.
"Zhu Chang was indeed wrong in what happened today. Chu Yunting had his reasons for beating him. We just returned home and don't know about these things yet. If there is any offense, please forgive him, Grandpa Chu."
Zhu Chang panicked, "Brother Kong, you can't just ignore me, I'm..."
"It's you who said things you shouldn't have said. How I save you and how this matter is resolved still depends on the attitude of the Chu family. It's useless for you to beg me!"
Kong Jiaxiang looked indifferent and coldly at Zhu Chang, telling him to clear his mind and stop talking nonsense.
"Wait for your family to come and ask them to plead for mercy. As long as the Chu family promises not to pursue the matter, nothing will happen to you."
Kong Jiaxiang coaxed Zhu Chang to shut up. He would have to go to the countryside sooner or later anyway. Whether he was demoted or sent to the countryside, he would have to suffer and do farm work in the countryside. There was not much difference.
Chu Xin...
How arrogant! They are blatantly trying to shut people up while they are still here.
"I think he's not the only one who needs to learn a lesson. Some people shouldn't think they can rest easy just because they don't have anything to worry about.
I'm different from Chu Yunting. If you bother me, I'll destroy you all!"
He spoke lightly, not taking the family background that Kong Jiaxiang relied on into consideration at all.
What a person! He has persecuted so many people against his conscience. No matter how high an official he is, he is not a good person. If he is forced into a corner, he will be killed quietly!
other people……
Isn’t this granddaughter of the Chu family who was adopted halfway too arrogant? Even Old Master Chu wouldn’t dare to speak so arrogantly, right?
Chu Yunting and Zhou Yichen both knew her temper. Even for her sake, they had to remind these annoying people in front of them.
"Remember, don't mess with her!"
Zhou Yichen looked at Kong Jiaxiang and advised him seriously,
"You'd better remember what she said."
Kong Jiaxiang snorted coldly, not taking Zhou Yichen's words to heart.
"I always know how to do things. I don't need you to teach me."
Zhou Yichen didn't comment. Anyway, he had reminded Kong Jiaxiang of one of the few kindnesses he had shown him. If he really fell into Chu Xin's hands one day, he hoped that Kong Jiaxiang would not regret it.
Seeing that everyone had agreed, the guard went out and called in the police officer in charge of the case.
Old Master Chu spoke righteously and said that the case could be handled according to the law, and the Public Security Bureau would decide the sentence, whether it was to be demoted or imprisoned.
As for Zhu Chang's parents, they didn't come at first, and it's useless for them to come now. So what if they are from the Revolutionary Committee? They will act according to the law in the Public Security Bureau, and no amount of conspiracies and tricks will be of any use.
Zhu Chang was left alone crying at the Public Security Bureau, while the others who were fine left on their own accord.
Wei Hongying realized that she had nothing to do and her mind became active again. Seeing that Mr. Chu and his men were about to get in the car and leave, she took a few quick steps and called out to them to stop.
"Chu, Grandpa Chu!"
Old Master Chu turned around, somewhat puzzled. Although he was old, he was not stupid. This girl said that she was friends with Chu Shadan, but in fact, she looked down on him at all and even despised him.
"Is something wrong?"
Wei Hongying took a few deep breaths, trying not to look at Zhou Yichen's gloomy face, and asked in a trembling voice:
"I, I want to know, is the Chu family planning to marry into the Zhou family?"
"What?"
The expression on Mr. Chu's face suddenly turned ugly. He pounded the ground with his cane several times, and he wanted to slap his thigh and curse.
"What are you talking about, I..."
"What's it to you? Who are you to ask about someone else's private affairs?"
Chu Xin stepped sideways and stood in front of Old Man Chu, interrupting him. With an indifferent look and a calm voice, he looked at Wei Hongying with a half-smile and asked questions.
For some reason, Wei Hongying felt that Chu Xin was superior to her and looked at her with disdain.
She took a step back in shock. Chu Xin continued to approach her with his arms folded, lowering his voice so that only the two of them could hear it.
"I really don't bother to compete with men! If you can win Zhou Yichen's heart, that's your ability. I will never interfere.
But if you dare to talk nonsense in front of my family and stir up trouble, you will lose both my life and my man!"
Wei Hongying was frightened and kept stepping back. She was supported by Zhang Ying and Liao Hong, who asked her worriedly if she was okay.
Wei Hongying shook her head and looked at Chu Xin with red eyes, her face pale and ugly. Why was this woman named Chu Xin so fearless? Was it because Zhou Yichen favored her?
Chu was too lazy to watch her Lin Daiyu-like performance and rolled his eyes at Zhou Yichen.
"Sort out your affairs before coming to me. This is the first and last time!"
After saying this, without even looking at Zhou Yichen's expression, he pushed the stunned Mr. Chu into the car, got in, and asked the driver to drive away.
Chu Yunting was dumbfounded, waving and shouting,
"Hey, Xiao Chu, what about me? I haven't gotten on the bus yet!"
Jia Zhenyan held him back and said, "Don't we still have Zhou Yichen? Let him take us back."
Zhou Yichen, who was already irritated by Chu Xin...
Looking at the two friends surrounding him with their big eyes flashing and crying to go home, his eyebrows ached.
He had a hunch that even if Chu Xin agreed, his pursuit of his wife would not be easy.
