Jiang Mian had no idea what happened at the police station; Meng Jing told him about it after he returned.

As she spoke, she imitated the way the police scolded the parents, making Jiang Mian's mouth stretch almost to her ears with laughter.

After this incident, three of the bullies who had mistreated Jiang Mian transferred to another school.

They had no choice but to leave, and not only did they cause a scene at the police station, but they were also reprimanded by the police.

In addition, Jiang's mother was so angry that she went to the school a few days later and made a scene, scolding the inactive homeroom teachers and school leaders.

They initially thought Jiang's mother was making a mountain out of a molehill, believing it was just children playing around.

But when they saw Jiang Mian's injuries and the hospital's examination report, they immediately shut their mouths.

In the end, the three families felt ashamed in the town and soon moved away in disgrace.

As for the remaining two, since they had lived in the small town for generations, they had no choice but to grit their teeth and stay, even if they were discriminated against to death.

The school later spoke with Jiang's mother, believing that such bullying had caused psychological harm to the child, and advised her to consider transferring Jiang Mian to another school.

Jiang Mian really didn't know about this, because his homeroom teacher hadn't spoken to him about it. He only found out about it later from his father.

His mother immediately rejected the suggestion: "Why should my child transfer schools?! The one who committed the crime is someone else, why should he bear the consequences?!"

Jiang's mother's tone was firm. Since her child hadn't done anything wrong, why should he choose to run away? If he runs away now, he'll run away countless times on his path to adulthood. What's the difference between that and a weak coward?

Finally, he criticized the school's behavior, saying that attempting to quell the farce in this way was a disgrace to a place of education!

In short, the person responsible for making the suggestion was later scolded and sent away by Jiang's mother.

When Jiang Mian heard this, he was genuinely puzzled: Did his mother really not have much education?

How could someone possibly utter such a resounding statement?!

As it turned out, Jiang's mother's approach was indeed correct.

She helped Jiang Mian grow stronger, rather than choosing to weakly run away.

Later, it was somewhat by accident, but after the story spread, the students no longer dared to bully Jiang Mian.

Because he not only has a fierce mother, but also a bullying older brother.

During this time, many funny incidents occurred. The boys who wanted to curry favor with Meng Jing and become his underlings went out of their way to buy him a lot of snacks and even lent him their beloved game consoles, all in the hope that Jiang Mian could put in a good word for them with Meng Jing.

What are you grinning about?

Jiang Mian was happily reminiscing about the past when Meng Jing pinched his face, raised his eyebrows, and asked him a question.

When she came to her senses, Jiang Mian still smiled: "It reminds me of when I was bullied when I was a child. Brother Meng Jing, please help me get justice."

Those were all distant memories. After his reminder, Meng Jing remembered them too, and smiled as she ruffled his hair: "I was quite naughty back then, and I got a lot of beatings from your auntie."

"Oh!" Jiang Mian laughed and dodged the other person's hand. "I'm already so big, Brother Meng Jing, please stop touching my head."

"Oh ho, you're looking down on me now, huh?"

Meng Jing snorted, "I wonder who it was when we were little that followed me around like a little tail, no matter where I went, and even knew to call me 'Brother Meng Jing' in a sweet voice~".

Jiang Mian ignored her: "That definitely wasn't me!"

"Still pretending, huh?"

Meng Jing wanted to rub his head again.

But seeing He Yubai standing to the side, she put aside her desire to joke with Jiang Mian and asked, "And who is this?"

“This is my classmate He Yubai,” Jiang Mian hurriedly introduced. “He just arrived in town yesterday; he’s here for tourism.”

Then he introduced Meng Jing to He Yubai: "This is my great-uncle's son, and also my older brother who I played with since childhood."

"Hello."

"Nice to meet you."

The two shook hands, but couldn't help but scrutinize each other with their eyes.

Meng Jing is a very outgoing person who likes to say things out loud. After letting go of He Yubai's hand, he asked Jiang Mian with a smile, "Mianmian, tell your brother, is this really just your classmate?"

"To be precise, he should be a classmate and roommate."

Jiang Mian didn't beat around the bush as much as the other party, and responded directly.

"Your classmate and roommate even came all the way here for a trip?"

"Uh-huh!"

After pretending to ponder for a moment while stroking his chin, Meng Jing asked He Yubai, "He Yubai, are you Mianmian's boyfriend?"

"puff!"

Fearing the smell of safflower oil would make her nauseous on the way, Jiang Mian simply grabbed a bottle of mineral water from the hotel. At this moment, the wind died down, and the smell of safflower oil started to waft up again.

He unscrewed the bottle cap, and after taking just one sip, he spat it out immediately upon hearing this, and couldn't help but cough.

He Yubai was also stunned by the question. Seeing Jiang Mian coughing and choking, he didn't know whether to help Jiang Mian catch her breath or answer the question first.

"I...this..."

"Don't worry, I'm very tight-lipped, I definitely won't tell anyone."

As Meng Jing spoke, he made a zipping motion with his mouth.

He smiled with narrowed eyes: "This student He has a good eye; he actually took a liking to our Mianmian."

Jiang Mian, having finally finished coughing, stepped forward and pushed away Meng Jing's slightly lewd face: "Brother Meng Jing, stop talking nonsense, my classmate is straight!"
