“When did this happen? How come I didn’t know? Who stole it?” Chen Meng’er heard that it was related to her oldest brother. She couldn’t sit still anymore.
“It was done by the Han family. I heard it from my second brother when he came back.”
“The Han family?” Chen Meng’er frowned. She thought in her heart, she didn’t want it to be her aunt’s family. It wasn’t that Chen Meng’er was afraid of her aunt, but if it was possible, Chen Meng’er didn’t really want to shed all pretense of cordiality with her aunt. After all, her uncle treated her very well.
Moreover, Chen Meng’er knew that her brother’s place to study was snatched. If it really was her aunt’s family, then it would definitely be related to the Qu family.
“Yes, it’s the Qu family’s eldest daughter-in-law.” As Xu Lele said this, she suddenly remembered, Chen Meng’er’s relationship with the Qu family. “Ah, how could I forget? Your relationship with the Qu family is…” Xu Lele was worried and confused.
“Lele, thank you for this. I owe you a favor.” Chen Meng’er had always been grateful. This time. If Xu Lele hadn’t called her and told her this news, she wouldn’t have known that her brother, Chen Haoguo, was being bullied at the military academy.
Chen Meng’er knew very well how important this training at the military academy was to her brother’s future development.
And if Xu Lele hadn’t called to tell her, Chen Haoguo, wouldn’t have come to tell her about this matter and wouldn’t have asked her to stand up for him anyway. He would have silently endured this matter.
This wasn’t what Chen Meng’er wanted to see.
“I’m calling you not to ask you to accept my favor. I’m calling you to tell you about this matter because I don’t want your eldest brother, Chen haoguo, to be bullied like this. I don’t have the ability to help your eldest brother, so…” for the first time, Xu Lele felt that her status as the eldest daughter of the Xu family, was useless.
When she heard her second brother talk about this, she was furious. She wanted to run to her grandfather, Elder Xu, and ask him to help. But her second brother suddenly stopped her and told her that, it was useless for her to go to her grandfather for help.
Their grandfather would not help. At that time, Xu Lele naively asked, “Why?” .
Xu Lele could still remember what her second brother said.
“Do you think that grandfather would offend the Han family for the sake of an unrelated outsider? Do you think that he would offend the Han family, which has the Qu family as its backer? It’s not like you don’t know what kind of person grandfather is. Not to mention an unrelated outsider, even today, if any one of us were to become a stumbling block to the Xu family, grandfather would not hesitate to kick them away.”
Xu Lele listened to her brother’s words and was stunned for a long time.
However, it was her second brother’s words that made her wake up from her dream.
“Yes, I know. Lele, I still have to thank you. In the future, no matter what difficulties you encounter, you can come and look for me.” This was her promise to Xu Lele.
Xu Lele was on the other end of the phone. She was silent for a long time before she said to Chen Meng’er, “Then, Meng’er, can you make me stronger? I want to have the ability to protect the people I care about.”
Chen Meng’er did not expect Xu Lele to make such a request to her. However, after thinking for a moment, she knew why Xu Lele was acting so strangely. “Yes, as long as you want, I can help you.”
“Thank you, Meng’er. I’ll look for you later.”
Chen Meng’er hung up on Xu Lele and got someone to look for Su Jin. Originally, Chen Meng’er would look for Zhou Yunjie no matter what happened. However, after she found out about Zhou Yunjie’s intentions toward her, she felt a little embarrassed when she faced Zhou Yunjie.
