She, Meng Yingxin, was not a daughter of the Meng family; she was merely a tool for the Meng family to earn dowry money.
"That's not up to you. Are you leaving or not—" Pan Wenfang tried to pull Meng Yingxin away, but Su Yueya blocked her. She couldn't grab her, and it looked like she was about to have another argument with Su Yueya.
“This is a family matter of the Meng family, what does it have to do with you?” Wu Xiulan also shouted, helping her parents-in-law to make their stance clear.
"Girl, listen to me. Your parents have been so worried about you running away from your wedding. How can you be so unfilial? Come back with us right now!" Meng Chengfu also played the good guy.
"Stop fooling around!" Meng Yingxin suddenly shouted.
She felt so tired.
Why, despite her efforts to escape her family, did they still find her, even dragging down the only doctor who was kind to her, Dr. Su, and forcing these female soldiers who laugh at her and speak ill of her every day to watch her make a fool of herself again and again?
Meng Yingxin desperately wanted to ask, what exactly did she do wrong? Why was God treating her like this?
But she didn't know who to ask for an answer.
"Enough!" Meng Yingxin trembled, glancing at Su Yueya one last time. She wanted to smile at her, but she simply couldn't bring herself to do it. "You two go inside first, this is none of your business..."
Meng Yingxin didn't want Su Yueya to get hurt because of her, nor did she want to delay everyone's affairs. After all, they had important matters to attend to when they returned to the army, including the final assessment, which concerned everyone's fate.
And perhaps this is her fate...
"I'll explain it to them," Meng Yingxin said, taking a step towards the Meng family.
It was this step that gave Pan Wenfang the opportunity to win over Meng Yingxin.
"Smack—"
The first thing they do when they catch someone is slap them across the face.
First, Pan Wenfang slapped her, and then Meng Demao followed up with several slaps, displaying a chaotic and slapping style that didn't even give Meng Yingxin a chance to recover.
The crisp sound of the slap shocked everyone.
Su Yueya thought she was seeing things. She knew the Meng family was difficult to deal with, but she never expected them to be this difficult, to the point that they would actually resort to violence, and with both parents doing it.
Even before they had left, with so many people watching right at the entrance of the military base, several slaps landed directly on Meng Yingxin's face.
"What are you doing?!" Su Yueya shouted. "Pull them apart right now! Who gave you permission to beat people up in front of the military base?"
These female soldiers, although they usually gossip behind people's backs, firstly, it's illegal to hit soldiers, and secondly, after that good show just now, most of the smart ones saw through the clues and realized that Meng Yingxin must be having a hard time at home, so they suddenly felt more sympathy for her.
Moreover, they were all reserve female soldiers, and their sense of teamwork was significantly stronger than that of ordinary people.
"What are you doing? Who gave you permission to hit people?"
"You dare to hit female soldiers? That's illegal! How dare you!"
"Let go! Don't hit people!"
Surprisingly, the female soldiers united and helped each other to rescue Meng Yingxin from the jaws of death.
But the people in Meng Yingxin's family are all ignorant of the law; otherwise, they wouldn't have done things like replacing Meng Yingxin's university spot or marrying her off to an old man for a dowry.
And just like that, unsurprisingly, the two sides started tearing each other apart.
"You dare push my mother? Are you crazy?" Meng Chengfu jumped out to protect his mother.
"Let go! Release Meng Yingxin! Who gave you permission to hit her?"
"Can't you talk things out properly? Just because you can hit people doesn't mean you're so great. Do you even know where you are? Do you think you can just run wild like this?"
"None of your business! This is a family matter for the Meng family. Who do you think you are?"
"Let go—"
"I won't let go—"
"Your family is utterly lawless!"
"Mind your own business, get out of here!"
The two sides were locked in a fierce battle. The Meng family members were quite capable fighters, and these female soldiers were no pushovers either. They had been trained for half a year and had the advantage in numbers.
But at the beginning, after Meng Yingxin was slapped, her older brother and sister-in-law grabbed her. The two wanted to get her away as soon as possible. Who knew that the sound of the slap would provoke the group of female soldiers and cause such a commotion. But even in the chaos, the couple did not lose their composure and kept holding Meng Yingxin's hair tightly.
"Meng Yingxin, come back with us right now. Is this going to make a scene?" Meng Chengfu scolded, feeling that it was all Meng Yingxin's fault.
By gripping Meng Yingxin's hair, he was essentially holding her lifeline, forcing her to follow the force that was pulling her.
"Let her go! Let her go!" The female soldiers were determined not to let anyone take Meng Yingxin away.
Amidst the chaotic scuffle, Meng Yingxin was pushed and shoved around, her footing constantly slipping. One moment she would fall on one person, the next she would be pulled away by another.
Finally, she "flew" away.
"ah--"
Meng Yingxin felt as if she had completely lost control of her body. She felt like she was about to fall, struggling desperately but unable to grab onto anything, only being pulled down by gravity.
"Bang--"
She fell to the ground, and unfortunately, her head hit a rock when she landed.
In an instant, Meng Yingxin fainted.
The person being fought over had already fallen unconscious, and the two sides were still locked in a life-or-death struggle. No one noticed that Meng Yingxin had already flown away, except for Su Yueya.
"Meng Yingxin!" Su Yueya rushed over and shouted, "Stop fighting!"
"Stop fighting! Meng Yingxin has fainted!"
The crowd that had been tearing each other apart finally separated.
The people on both sides looked at Meng Yingxin lying on the ground with her eyes closed, and then at Su Yueya who was trying to check her. Their expressions were quite interesting.
"Oh my god, she... she's not dead, is she?"
"Weren't we just helping her? How did she fall and even lose consciousness...?"
"I don't understand either. If she really dies, are we also implicated?"
"We're doomed, is she really dead? Then... then we killed her?"
"How did things escalate to the point where someone's life is involved?"
The female soldiers were all panicked. No one wanted to get involved in a murder case. Although it was not clear who the fatal killer was, everyone was involved, so everyone was an accomplice.
Most importantly, such a vibrant life was just gone like that?
It was a huge shock to everyone, but for the Meng family—
"She's dead?" Wu Xiulan looked incredulous, grabbing her husband's arm and shaking it, repeatedly emphasizing, "Meng Yingxin is just dead like that? Then, what about the bride price..."
"What bad luck! The dowry money that was almost in my hands has also vanished?"
