Chapter 475 - 409 I Didn’t Do Anything
Qi Yan left as soon as he saw the man nod, without lingering.
He left right away.
Once the two police officers left, Nie Yuexiang expressed her severe dissatisfaction to the man.
She wasn’t afraid of him anymore.
"Why did you have to say that? From what you’re suggesting, not only do they not have to pay us, but are we supposed to pay them instead?"
And they expect an apology?
Just thinking about it caused her intense pain.
"What do you know? If not for your stupidity, it would have been just three kids fighting, why would it escalate to the police station?"
Le Changming felt so frustrated that he thought it was a good thing he didn’t cough up blood.
Wasn’t it just a school fight among three children? It could have been settled easily.
And yet it had ended up at the police station... It was an utter embarrassment.
Nie Yuexiang was criticized and she was also very angry, "It wasn’t us who called the police, why are you scolding me?"
"I don’t want to talk to you right now, but remember this... Shut your mouth. If you dare to spout nonsense again, I will divorce you."
Hearing the word "divorce," Nie Yuexiang’s eyes widened in shock, "You, you’re going to divorce me over this? Could it be that you’ve fallen for that vixen? Otherwise, why would you help her when it was your son who got hurt?"
Nie Yuexiang thought she had guessed the truth. When she remembered that face, despite how much she loathed that woman... she had to admit the woman was attractive.
Le Changming was infuriated by her words; what on earth was she thinking?
At his age, where would he have the energy for such frivolous thoughts?
"You idiot, I haven’t even seen what the parents look like, and here you are spouting nonsense. Do you have any idea who their family is?"
"Which, which family?" No matter how powerful a family, they couldn’t just steal her man!
"That’s the Qin Family, do you understand? The Qin Family whom even Le Jia’s uncle wants to curry favor with. Let me tell you, your son has caused a big problem this time. If they really pursue this, my job is done for."
Le Changming was not only angry at her and their son, but also at his own daughter.
It was only today that he found out his daughter had a feud with the daughter-in-law of the Qin family!
Oh my! Each one of them... He didn’t ask for their help, but they shouldn’t be dragging him down either!
Looking at his wife’s foolish appearance, he had no desire to see her anymore.
"In any case, keep your mouth shut. Do whatever I tell you to do tomorrow, or else, don’t think about staying in the Le Family any longer."
Nie Yuexiang was a bit scared at that moment.
She didn’t understand much, but if it was an issue that could affect her husband’s job, it must be serious.
But... could this be settled?
She had slapped that boy more than a dozen times.
Then she quickly consoled herself, remembering that she had received four slaps from that woman.
That evened things out, right?
...
Rong Yan was somewhat surprised to see Qin Ye return.
"Why did you come back today?"
She wondered if he also knew about Qin Mei and Qin Yu being beaten.
Qin Ye looked at her and noticed that she hadn’t gotten any tanner in the past half-month.
She still looked so beautiful.
"I’ve wrapped things up at school and have a day off. I need to go to the office for a few days tomorrow, so I came home to check on things. Wife, is everything at home alright?"
Rong Yan: ...
How was she supposed to answer? She surely couldn’t say things were bad.
But she wasn’t capable of hiding the truth.
Moreover, he was the elder brother of the two siblings; he had the right to know everything.
So she said, "Meimei and Qin were beaten by someone."
Qin Ye: ...
Rong Yan, regardless of his expression, turned her head and shouted at the two doing their homework, "Qin Yu, Meimei, come out quickly, your big brother is back."
Qin Yu and Qin Mei, hearing that their elder brother was back, were both very happy and ran out.
The siblings both called out to Qin Ye at the same time, "Big Brother!"
Qin Ye’s gaze first landed on his sister’s face, which was bandaged, "Your face..."
Qin Mei, afraid that her brother would worry, hurriedly said, "Big Brother, there’s nothing wrong with me here, sister-in-law said it won’t leave a scar, and it should heal in about half a month, so don’t worry."
Qin Ye’s brow furrowed in one spot, then he turned his head to look at Qin Yu.
Qin Yu’s face, though no longer as red and swollen with palm prints as before, thanks to the ointment sister-in-law had applied, still showed some traces.
Naturally, they could not escape Qin Ye’s eyes.
"What exactly happened? Explain it to me properly."
Qin Yu was somewhat afraid his brother would get angry, and he was also afraid of being blamed for not protecting his sister properly.
So, he instinctively looked towards his sister-in-law.
Rong Yan, having an abundant amount of patience for the siblings today, glared at Qin Ye after receiving Qin Yu’s glance.
"Don’t look at him like that, you’re too fierce, you’re scaring the child."
Qin Yu: ...
Thank you, I wasn’t scared, I just didn’t know how to say it.
Qin Ye: ...
He felt wronged too. Where was he being fierce?
"Alright, sit down, I will explain everything slowly." Rong Yan pointed to the stone stool.
Qin Ye then went over and sat down.
Rong Yan began to recount the events...
As Qin Ye listened, his brows knitted even more tightly.
Qin Yu quietly asked Qin Mei, "Do you think Big Brother is angry with me?"
If I’m going to be beaten, I hope it’s lightly.
"No, Big Brother is always like that," Qin Mei replied, then turned her head, "Second Brother, are you worried Big Brother is going to hit you? Don’t worry, you didn’t do anything wrong, sister-in-law won’t let Big Brother hit you. Plus, I’ll protect you from Big Brother too."
Qin Yu: ...
Qin Ye also overheard his little sister’s muttering... He couldn’t help but introspect a little. Was he really that unreasonable?
Madam Rong was busy in the kitchen, and because she was frying a dish, she didn’t come out immediately.
Only after the dish was ready did she come out.
"Qin is back, don’t be angry, we’ve already reported it to the police and are dealing with it. Also, don’t blame Qin Yu, I think he behaved quite well today."
Qin Ye: ...
He felt a bit helpless inside.
How come everyone seemed to think he was going to hit Qin Yu?
He hadn’t said anything, hadn’t done anything.
"Mom, I’m not angry with Qin Yu..."
An explanation seemed necessary, otherwise the misunderstanding could grow too large.
Madam Rong: "That’s good you’re not angry, go wash your hands! We’ll eat soon, we can discuss everything... after dinner."
At that moment, Rong Wenming returned from outside.
He had been out buying things.
The minute he entered the courtyard and saw his son-in-law had returned, he too was quite happy.
"Qin Ye, you’re back."
Suddenly he remembered something, "Qin Ye, don’t be mad at Yu, he did quite well today, I think he deserves praise."
Qin Ye: ...
This really couldn’t be cleared up.
