Chapter 57 Xu Xiucheng was released on bail
"There's more."
Song Shuling continued.
"Their family injured those comrades in our factory. In addition to paying for Zhou Qiang's medical expenses, they also have to pay for Xu Xiucheng's redemption. After paying all this money, they probably can't even afford to support Xu Shaojun's education."
Mr. Zhong, who was eavesdropping in the corner, suddenly sneered.
"These people in their family should be treated like rats crossing the street, and everyone should shout and beat them. Not to mention leaving them with no money at all, it would be best if they could starve to death to prevent them from harming others any more!"
"There's just one thing..."
Song Shuling's tone was ambiguous, and she looked tentatively at Zhong Qiao beside her.
"Xu Xiuben was originally going to jail for intentional wounding, but the Xu family tried to find a solution, but in the end, the police ruled that his act was unintentional and he was drunk, and the Xu family had to pay a lot of money for bail."
When this was mentioned, Song Shuling felt depressed.
At that time, the Xu family was doomed.
Zhou Ping cried and screamed, and as a result, Xu Xiucheng was released on bail with money.
When the injured comrades in their factory heard about this, they were furious and some of them limped to protest on crutches.
The police station refused to listen and took the money anyway. On the grounds that Zhou Qiang had presented a letter of apology, Xu Xiucheng was released after only one month in detention.
Beating Zhou Qiang beyond humaneness, and still issuing a letter of apology? If this is true, Song Shuling's name should be written upside down!
"If I can protect him once, can I protect him a second time, a third time, or even for the rest of his life?"
Mr. Zhong was extremely disdainful.
"I've seen Xu Xiucheng before. His forehead is black. If he does something bad again, even the Golden Immortal can't save him. We don't need to worry about him. He'll die on his own."
Song Shuling covered her mouth and exclaimed: "Uncle, you can also tell fortunes?"
"I just learned it casually from a Taoist priest when I was young." Father Zhong smiled awkwardly and said, "I don't deserve it."
When he was young, his personality was very similar to Xu Xiucheng's, impulsive, reckless and daring, but he was not the kind of hooligan who would beat people up under the influence of alcohol and indulge in drinking, gambling and whoring.
In order to survive, Zhong's father performed on the streets, broke stones on his chest, acted as a Taoist fortune teller, or cried at funerals.
I can do a little bit of everything, but I'm not good at anything.
As for the black spot on his forehead, he just made it up.
"Uncle, then please read my face too." Song Shuling, the silly child, believed it and stretched out her right hand with admiration, "Men on the left and women on the right. That's right, this one."
"Help me calculate what my future husband will be like? Will I be able to get rich?"
Mr. Zhong: ...
Zhong Qiao didn't care about the two people fooling around.
Xu Xiucheng was a man of impatient temper, greedy and lazy. Before he experienced the incident at the steel plant, there were already many debt collectors who wanted to deal with him.
It's true that you're courting death.
But she knew the Xu family and Xu Shaojun too well.
The Xu family is notoriously shameless. After suffering such a huge setback this time and losing everything, they will certainly not reflect on themselves, but will only shift the blame to others.
And this person can only be Zhong Qiao.
As his thoughts surged, Zhong Qiao's eyes flickered slightly, and a flash of inspiration struck him, as he thought of something very important.
She took Song Shuling's hand and said, "Ah Shu, tell me honestly, after this incident, did the Xu family ask the factory for my address?"
Zhong Qiao's expression was too serious, which made Song Shuling, who was very smart, think deeply for a while, and then she reacted immediately.
She pointed at Zhong Qiao, her eyes widening in disbelief: "Sister Zhong Qiao, you mean..."
She didn't say the rest, but all the answers were in the glances between them.
When smart people talk to each other, they don’t say it openly, but it’s that simple. Everything that can be said and cannot be said can be made clear with just one look.
Zhong Qiao looked far away, narrowed his eyes, and cast his gaze towards a certain place in the compound, as if he was trying to see Xu Shaojun's hypocritical face from a distance.
"They must be frantically looking for me now."
Zhong Qiao even gave up one of her children and almost lost a lot of skin to get rid of the Xu family. Song Shuling was naturally very clear about the dangers of being dependent on the Xu family.
"Qiao Qiao, don't worry." Song Shuling pulled Zhong Qiao's hand, but found it was as cold as ice.
She thought Zhong Qiao was afraid of the Xu family's shamelessness, so she quickly patted her chest and made a promise.
"Except for me and Sister Zhou Yan, no one knows your home address. I'll tell them later and ask them to keep your home address confidential."
"If they really dare to provoke you and Wan Wan, Sister Zhou Yan and I will be the first to not let them go! Let them come in vertically and leave horizontally."
Zhong Qiao nodded, frowning.
That's all I can do.
He had clearly cut off all ties with the Xu family, but because he had been living too comfortably these days, like a frog in boiling water, he had no idea that the Xu family might make a comeback.
She can trust Zhou Yan, but what about others?
The mouth is on someone else's body and she can't control it.
Zhong Qiao chose to wait and see.
"It's not that simple, nor that complicated."
After listening to the whole process, Mr. Zhong was not panicked at all. After all, he was a veteran in the business world and could calmly analyze the situation even in such a situation.
"Zhou Ping might be thinking about how to restore her relationship with her family, or how to make money. After all, Xu Shaojun still has to study and has no time to pay attention to us."
Zhong Qiao knew that her father, who was not good at speaking, was worried about her, so she chuckled and nodded.
"This is our territory. If the Xu family really dares to come, let Siqi beat them out with a broom."
From the day she was discharged from the hospital, Zhong Siqi hated the Xu family so much that she was ready to fight them, waiting for them to make a comeback so that she could give them a good beating.
When Zhong Qiao first saw him, she scolded him for being childish. Now she thought that she had thought too simply, and Siqi's words really came true.
"Don't even mention hitting it out."
Mr. Zhong sneered, thinking of the hardships his daughter had suffered in the Xu family in the past. The hatred buried deep in his heart devoured his rationality.
"If I can let the Xu family step into the threshold of my Zhong family, I will be defeated."
Zhong Qiao felt warm in his heart.
Everyone is protecting her, there is no one behind her.
"By the way, Ah Shu."
Zhong Qiao thought something was wrong and turned his head to look.
"Who did the Xu family ask for help this time?"
An indescribable expression appeared on Song Shuling's originally hesitant face, and her fingers were twisted into a ball.
"I also heard it...it's not necessarily true."
"It's okay, tell me about it." Zhong Qiao said.
"Alright." Song Shuling sighed, then said seriously, "I heard that Xu Shaojun asked his classmates for help. This person does have some background, but none of us has seen what he looks like."
Not only is his family an official and he is rich, but it is surprising that such a person knows Xu Shaojun.
Zhong Qiao searched his mind again and again for someone who met these criteria, but he really couldn't think of who else it could be.
Perhaps noticing Zhong Qiao's confusion, Song Shuling looked around, afraid that other gossips in the compound would hear her and whisper in her ear.
"It's probably a boy. As soon as the family incident was resolved, I heard that Zhou Ping asked Xu Lili to quit her job and arranged a marriage for her."
Zhong Qiao was dumbfounded.
As soon as Xu Xiucheng was released, Xu Lili was introduced to a boyfriend by Zhou Ping. She even gave up her job, as if marriage was a foregone conclusion.
There must be something hidden behind this.
"Yeah." Song Shuling slapped her thigh. "Isn't that weird?"
"If Xu Lili had been introduced to a good marriage, she would have been grinning from ear to ear. But I heard that on the day Xu Lili resigned, she refused to obey and Zhou Ping even grabbed her hair and dragged her home from the fifth floor, one flight at a time. It was a big fuss."
Song Shuling clicked her tongue twice, her whole body shuddered, and she suddenly folded her arms, rubbing the goose bumps up and down.
"Zhou Ping was really cruel to my daughter. She dragged her home by her hair, kicking and beating her all the way. Just hearing about it makes my scalp tingle. Xu Lili, a girl, might not even be able to go out in the future."
Zhong Qiao raised his eyelids, and a dim light flickered in his eyes.
Xu Xiucheng got into trouble and was released on bail. Then Xu Lili resigned and was forced to date Zhou Ping.
Everything has a trace.
In order to save Xu Xiucheng, the Xu family is likely to choose to push Xu Lili out.
Sacrificing a daughter in exchange for a son is indeed Zhou Ping's style.
But this is nothing like the situation in my previous life.
In her previous life, Xu Lili had double eyelid surgery and learned how to dress herself, so she could barely be considered a beauty.
When she was 22 years old, she met an educated youth who came to the countryside to sketch. They fell in love and their relationship developed quickly. She got married, moved to Hangzhou, and had two daughters and a son. They lived a happy life.
Xu Lili is now around 20 years old and has been arranged to go on a blind date. The timeline and the ending are wrong.
Zhong Qiao took a breath and suddenly realized something.
Could it be that because she was reborn, the original direction has undergone some changes, so the ending will also change?
Keeping this guess, Zhong Qiao and Song Shuling analyzed a lot. About an hour later, Song Shuling was ready to go home.
Zhong Qiao wanted to invite her to dinner, but was rejected.
Song Shuling said with a sad face: "You know my mother well. I'm risking my life by coming to your house this time. If I don't come home at night, my mother will definitely beat me into a mental retardation."
Zhong Qiao couldn't help but laugh and stopped forcing it.
"Okay, I won't keep you this time. Next time, tell me in advance and I'll save a portion for you. You can take it home and eat it. If your mother asks, just say it was given to you by Sister Zhou Yan.
"Sister Zhong Qiao, if we knew each other in our previous life, you would definitely be my true love."
Song Shuling was in a dramatic mood and stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears.
"It's a pity that I am a girl in this life, so I can't marry you."
"Okay, it's getting late, go home early." Zhong Qiao couldn't stand her sticky tone the most, so he stuffed a handful of White Rabbit candy into her pocket and pushed her gently.
Song Shuling regained her usual smile, waved goodbye to her, then rode away on her bike.
After dinner, Zhong Qiao finally remembered the letter in his arms.
