“Auntie, tell me, did I do anything wrong?”
“You cooperated with outsiders to engage in acts of violence against your own sister, and your sister was beaten to the point of bleeding. Isn’t that your fault?
“Your mom came to school to look for you in order to understand the situation, but you, a Year 3 Senior student, wasn’t in school. You also didn’t inform your family where you were going, and you couldn’t be contacted by phone. Isn’t that your fault?
“You clearly already have a fiancé, but you wantonly spent a night with a male classmate instead. Zhong Nuannuan, don’t forget that you have a serviceman’s marriage, and that your marriage application was approved by both the Commander-in-Chief and the Director-General. Yet, you’re fooling around like this. Isn’t that your fault?
“Your mom was worried about you, so she came to school early this morning to look for you, but you ended up hurting her like this. Worse still, it’s now uncertain whether or not she’ll even live. Isn’t that your fault?
“Your grandmother wants to teach you a lesson as your elder, but you fought back against this 60-something year old person. So, tell us, isn’t that your fault?”
Xie Congrong had long been angered by Zhong Nuannuan.
If not for Zhong Nuannuan, the daughter of the Lieutenant Governor would still be their future daughter-in-law.
Jiang District had undergone vigorous development in recent years, and within three years, Cloud Group would definitely grow to become a leading enterprise in Jiang District. By then, their family would have an equal social status to the Ou Family.
However, because of this messenger of death, a close relationship between her son and Ou Mingxi could be broken off just like that. How could she not be angry? How could she not end up hating her?
Although such criticisms could not cause any real harm to Zhong Nuannuan, it could make all the onlookers cast her aside.
Moreover, Xie Congrong had good judgment. She knew at a glance that the boy standing next to Zhong Nuannuan exuded an extraordinary temperament. Even though he was from Jia Yong, he was not any ordinary noble student. Coupled with Zhong Qianqian’s weak expression, Xie Congrong guessed that this man was probably Young Master Leng, who was said to come from a second-rate aristocratic family in Emperor District, and might have had an affair with Zhong Nuannuan.
She did not believe that a young master from a second-rate aristocratic family would fancy a torn shoe.
“It seems that your misunderstandings toward are aplenty, auntie. However, now that you’ve brought it up, auntie, let’s talk about them one by one.
“You said that I cooperated with outsiders to engage in acts of violence against my own sister and beat her to the point of unstoppable bleeding, but who told you this? It was my sister right? However, my sister cooperated with her classmates to label me a wretch behind my back. When my classmate heard this and told her to apologize to me, both her accomplices apologized. However, instead of apologizing to me, she started to put up a show and refused to apologize. Thus, she was smacked with a book by my classmate, which resulted in her having a nosebleed. How did this turn into an act of violence that caused unstoppable bleeding?
“Let’s also talk about me not returning home last night. Auntie, you also know that I have a fiancé, and that my fiancé is a military officer at the military base. Therefore, you should be aware that it’s not appropriate for me to disclose many things about my fiancé. This is also the reason why I failed to answer the phone last night. As for whether or not I did anything immoral, the commander-in-chief and the chief of staff of the military base are aware of where I was and of what I was so doing, so I don’t think I need to report them back to you one by one, Auntie.”
Xie Congrong sneered. “Zhong Nuannuan, I know that you can speak eloquently. However, don’t you think that this matter can be brushed aside just by mentioning the military base’s commander-in-chief and the chief of staff. We can’t contact high-level figures like the commander-in-chief and chief of staff anyway, so of course you can say whatever you want!”
