"Fine, refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit? Alright, we’ll see how you die. My son can present a legitimate hospital certificate, just wait to go to jail."
Liu ngxin was exasperated, not that she couldn’t use so tactics, but there were just too many people to smooth things over with.
The cost was too high.
But her disappointing son had caused such trouble, she couldn’t let it go.
Jiang Lei was indignant, even threatening him.
Damn, I’m not one to be bullied.
If jail ti it is, so be it.
"I don’t believe there’s no justice in this world, and that soone could turn black into white. Go ahead and sue! I absolutely won’t retract my statent. Your son committed highway robbery, I saw it all clearly and heard it all clearly."
This was a firm stand.
"Fine, just you wait, just you wait!"
Liu ngxin almost scratched Jiang Lei’s face in anger.
The man next to her, Li Caiqi, realized this wasn’t a reconciliation; what was this?
Bringing this woman along, he expected as much.
He hurriedly pushed Liu ngxin behind him, "You should speak less, is this any way to talk? Shut up!"
Liu ngxin wanted to say sothing but was stopped by Li Caiqi’s glare.
Her husband always had ideas.
Liu ngxin reluctantly shut her mouth.
Li Caiqi observed that Jiang Honest was evidently an honest man, shielding his son, and compared to Jiang Lei, this middle-aged man seed more amiable.
"I’m sorry! I’m sorry! The child’s mother is just worried sick; our child is still unconscious, and she doesn’t know what to do. We deeply apologize for any offense, truly sorry, so sorry!"
His attitude was surprisingly good, bowing repeatedly to Jiang Lei and Jiang Honest.
Jiang Lei was initially full of anger, but it was finally sowhat appeased.
"At least soone can speak humanely!"
He snorted coldly.
Liu ngxin glared, wanting to say sothing more.
Li Caiqi shot her a sideways glance, and Liu ngxin fell silent sheepishly.
"Child, I really didn’t expect that this child would resort to violence over a quarrel and end up unconscious himself, causing you suffering as well; I’m so sorry. Uncle is here to apologize on behalf of that arrogant brat.
Please be magnanimous and forgive him! He’s still young, and who doesn’t make mistakes in their youth? A mistake that can be corrected is a sign of a good child. Giving him a chance to correct his mistake is good for both of you."
Jiang Lei didn’t catch it, but Jiang Honest understood.
The whole aning was still that their son was not to bla and suggested both parties should take equal responsibility.
"Comrade, let’s leave it to the police to investigate who is right or wrong. My son just had surgery a few days ago and needs to rest well. You should go back."
He made no ntion of reconciliation.
His son was clearly in the right, and if they engaged with them further, even the slightest slip!
They would latch onto any words, turning it into a fight, sothing he couldn’t let his son fall into.
Li Caiqi was surprised to look at Jiang Honest.
Earlier, he thought Jiang Honest was truly honest, but this was not the case now.
ticulous thinking.
"Master Jiang, things have already co this far. Here are so tokens of our appreciation, five thousand yuan. If you think it’s not enough, we can offer a bit more, as long as it’s not unreasonable, we’ll agree. We just want both children to be alright, and as parents, isn’t that all we want?"
Money wasn’t an issue; if the other party was willing to reconcile, the nature of the matter would change.
"Comrade, we truly cannot accept these, you should go back first."
Jiang Honest adamantly refused to accept the items.
Liu ngxin saw this wasn’t going to be settled.
"I told you, people like them aren’t worth negotiating with. What’s there to talk about? Let’s go and see how this little worker dares to go against us — let’s see what he can do; let’s wait and see! I’ll call my dad and make sure he can’t do his job.
I won’t ask anything from him!"
Her brother was superior in the textile factory, a departnt director in the textile ministry; one call could send Jiang Lei back to collective welfare, unable to work, or even get fired.
Jiang Honest and Jiang Lei now realized where their confidence ca from.
Both father and son’s faces showed fear.
If true, Jiang Lei would be jobless.
With just an excuse, it wouldn’t be so easy.
Jiang Lei felt so regret, wondering if he should accept this humiliating outco?
Being bullied, and yet having to conform!
"I’ll give you one more chance: five thousand yuan for reconciliation. How about it? Not highway robbery, but fighting!"
Liu ngxin enunciated clearly.
She never believed Jiang Lei would dare oppose them.
"You lowlife, stubborn as a mule, refusing to yield. Let tell you, my family is full of officials, and my father-in-law is the hospital director here. If I say you’re fine, you’re fine; if I say my son’s unconscious, he’s unconscious. It’s better for you to be sensible."
Arrogance was synonymous with Liu ngxin.
Relying on her father-in-law and her father, she feared no one in her life.
Jiang Lei’s face looked awkward, whether he accepted or not, he might still get fired, and even be falsely accused. If he accepted, he would feel aggrieved.
This mont, Jiang Lei suddenly felt being a re chauffeur was damned suffocating.
Living like this as a man was worse than death.
He gritted his teeth and looked at Jiang Honest; this was a job his father had worked hard for his whole life to give him, and now was he to lose it over his indignance?
He couldn’t face his parents, nor his sister Jiang Xiaoxiao, who went to the countryside for his sake.
He wasn’t just one person; he was part of a family.
If it was stifling, so be it.
Just about to speak.
"It’s the first ti I’ve seen soone so arrogant! Are you saying the Li family can cover the sky with one hand, and no one can control you?"
Wu Fei entered, pulling her aunt Xu ng along.
Wu Pingjing followed behind.
The three of them had been listening outside and clearly heard the blatant bullying.
Liu ngxin’s face changed when she saw these three people she didn’t recognize!
But she rembered that on that night in the ergency, she saw Mr. Feng outside with the heads of surgical and internal dicine, and then this woman ca with a child.
If Mr. Feng gave them special attention, they were certainly people of significance.
"Jiang Lei, are you feeling better? Master Jiang, I am Wu Pingjing, and this is my wife Xu ng. We are here specifically to visit you today."
Wu Pingjing placed the nutritional supplents on the table.
All were the best, unavailable on the market.
Things like sea cucumber bird’s nest, powdered milk, malted milk, along with many fruits and pastries.
Jiang Honest was dumbfounded; they didn’t know these people.
"You all..."
"Uncle, don’t you recognize ? I’m Jiang Xiaoxiao’s friend! My na is Wu Fei. A few days ago, I had dinner at your house; Aunt Fan’s cooking was delicious, though I left in a hurry and didn’t get to et you."
Wu Fei’s words instantly bridged the gap between Jiang Honest and herself.
Jiang Honest imdiately understood. Being Jiang Xiaoxiao’s friend, they must be associated with Song Moting’s side.
By their affluent appearance, they must be connections of the Song family.
This visit was for Jiang Xiaoxiao’s sake.
He quickly welcod them, "Oh dear, it’s you! My wife ntioned you, didn’t expect it was you, please sit, please sit. Sorry for the trouble of coming here, you’re here to see Xiaoxiao, right? Let take you to her!"
They certainly knew Jiang Xiaoxiao was ill and specifically ca to visit their daughter.
Jiang Honest didn’t think they were here for them.
