Chapter 191 He did it on purpose

Jiang Xia stood up: "I'll go open the door."

When Jiang Xia opened the door, he saw Zhou Chenglei, who looked exhausted.

"Dad, is Mom okay?" As he said that, he saw Jiang Xia's chin turned red.

Jiang Xia's skin is extremely white, so the redness is particularly obvious, as if he had been beaten.

"Come in and talk." Jiang Xia moved aside to let Zhou Chenglei in.

Zhou Chenglei walked into the room and couldn't help but raise his hand to touch her face: "What's wrong with your face? Why is it so red?"

Jiang Xia pulled his hand down: "It's okay. My dad was taken away yesterday afternoon and hasn't come back yet."

Jiang's mother stood up and saw Zhou Chenglei holding Jiang Xia's face with a distressed look on his face. She was a little embarrassed and asked, "Alei is here?"

Zhou Chenglei looked at Jiang's mother's expression. What else did he not understand? He suddenly became angry! No matter what happened, Jiang Xia should not be taken out on her!

Zhou Chenglei looked stern. He glanced at Jiang's mother, then retracted his gaze and held Jiang Xia's face in front of Jiang's mother to study it carefully: "Does it hurt? It's all swollen! How did it happen? I'll give you some medicine!"

Then he asked Jiang's mother, "Mom, do you have any medicine? I'll apply some to Xia Xia. It's quite swollen, did you get hurt? Otherwise, why is it so red? Where did you get hurt so badly? How can you be so careless!"

Zhou Chenglei didn't give Jiang's mother any face at all, pretending to be ignorant and deliberately asking Jiang's mother to embarrass her! Jiang's mother is Jiang Xia's mother. Although he can't do anything, otherwise it would be a great rebellion, but his words made Jiang's mother feel ashamed!

"Yes, I'll get it." Jiang's mother was really ashamed. She felt distressed and regretful. She was a little embarrassed to face her son-in-law, so she quickly ran to find medicine.

She really regretted it. She was too angry just now!

Zhou Chenglei didn't let Jiang's mother go. He continued to "reprimand" Jiang Xia: "You are always distracted when you walk and don't look at the road! How many times have I told you? Every time I can't help but look at you, you either bump into this or that! You are such a grown-up, what if you have a child and you get bumped? Have you bumped anywhere else? Let me see!"

These words made Jiang's mother pause for a moment, and her heart became even more panicked! She regretted it as soon as she beat the child! Now she really wanted to go back to the moment when she opened the door! If Jiang Xia had a child, she would be accidentally injured, and the consequences would be disastrous.

Fortunately, Jiang Xia dodged for a moment.

Zhou Chenglei took Jiang Xia's hand and examined it carefully.

He wasn't just pretending, he was genuinely worried.

I was afraid she might be injured somewhere else.

I feel bad too! How can you hit someone? He was so angry that he had no place to vent! When Jiang's mother went into the room to find the medicine box, Jiang Xia glanced at Zhou Chenglei and said, "Okay, it's okay, only the face."

She knew that he was deliberately embarrassing Jiang's mother to vent her anger.

Zhou Chenglei didn't notice anything, so he took her hand and sat down on the sofa: "Does it hurt?"

Jiang Xia shook his head: "It doesn't hurt, I just dodged it for a while. Do you have any solution for Dad?"

"What's going on?"

Jiang Xia repeated what Zhou's mother had said, and then mentioned that the pearl was auctioned for 100,000 yuan.

After hearing this, Zhou Chenglei tightened her hand and comforted her, "That's okay. I guess he'll just call her over to ask some questions. Dad will come home after the matter is investigated."

One hundred thousand yuan is a lot of money. Someone reported it, and they found out that Jiang Xia's account did have an extra one hundred thousand yuan. It's normal to call him in for questioning. I guess everything will be fine once the auction situation overseas is clarified.

Jiang's mother took out a bottle of safflower oil and sat on the other side of Jiang Xia: "Apply some safflower oil, it can also disperse blood stasis."

She unscrewed the lid and wanted to help Jiang Xia apply medicine.

Zhou Chenglei stretched out his hand: "Let me do it!"

He was afraid that she would accidentally hurt Jiang Xia.

Jiang's mother had no choice but to give the safflower oil to Zhou Chenglei.

Zhou Chenglei pressed the mouth of the safflower oil bottle with his index finger and poured it downwards. A little safflower oil fell onto Zhou Chenglei's index finger, and then he carefully smeared it on Jiang Xia's face, "Don't do it again! You're not a child anymore!"

Mother Jiang: “…”

It felt like he was talking to her! The smell of safflower oil was a bit pungent. Seeing that he wanted to pour more safflower oil and apply more, Jiang Xia quickly held his hand and said, "Okay."

Zhou Chenglei stopped and screwed the cap on the safflower oil. He glanced at his watch. It was a little after nine, almost ten. It was not a good time to call and disturb others. After all, most people would be asleep at this time. But he had a special relationship with that person.

Even if we find out some news, we have to wait until tomorrow.

Zhou Chenglei dialed a number.

The phone beeped for a long time but no one answered, then the line was automatically disconnected.

Zhou Chenglei hung up the call expressionlessly and continued dialing.

This time the phone rang for a long time again. Just before it was automatically disconnected, an impatient voice came from the other end of the phone: "Who is this? You'd better have something very important to tell me! Otherwise, I'll twist your head off and kick it like a ball!"

Zhou Chenglei: "My father-in-law was taken away for questioning."

The other end of the phone was silent for a second, as if wondering who his father-in-law was. "Wait a minute, I'll ask."

After saying that, the phone hung up.

Jiang Xia asked curiously, "Who did you call?"

"Brother, I'll introduce you to him someday." Zhou Chenglei glanced at her chin, but still found it an eyesore.

"You and mom go to bed first. I'll wait for news here."

Jiang's mother said, "No, I'm not sleepy."

Jiang Xia asked Zhou Chenglei: "Have you eaten? I'll go make some noodles."

Zhou Chenglei knew she hadn't eaten yet, so he stood up immediately: "I'll go, you take a rest."

Jiang Xia: "No need, I'll go."

Jiang's mother: "Let me go! You don't understand this."

Jiang Xia stopped arguing about what he thought.

Jiang's mother went to the kitchen to busy herself.

At this moment, the phone and the door knocked at the same time.

Zhou Chenglei answered the phone and Jiang Xia went to open the door.

As soon as Jiang Xia opened the door, he saw Jiang's father looking down at his briefcase for the key. When he didn't find it, he raised his hand and knocked on the door, almost hitting Jiang Xia's forehead.

"Dad!" Jiang Xia shouted.

A voice came from the other end of the phone at this time: "Has our father-in-law not returned home yet? The people from the Discipline Department released him yesterday afternoon."

"Just got back. It's my father-in-law!" Zhou Chenglei hung up the phone directly.

When Jiang's father saw that it was Jiang Xia who opened the door, surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled: "When did Xia Xia come back?"

Jiang Xia took his briefcase and said, "I just came back today. Are you okay?"

"Dad." Zhou Chenglei also came to Jiang Xia and called out.

"Alei is back too." Jiang's father came into the room and said with a smile, "It's okay, what could be wrong?"

Jiang's mother quickly turned off the fire and came out of the kitchen. Seeing Jiang's father, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Are you okay?"

Father Jiang: "Of course it's okay, what could be the problem?"

Jiang's mother: "Didn't I hear that you were reported and taken away by the Discipline Department?!"

Father Jiang sat down on the sofa, a little tired: "It's an exaggeration to say that I was taken away. The Discipline Department just asked me to question them."

His attitude was very good, so how did it get spread that he was taken away? Jiang's mother: "Why did it take so long?"

Seeing that Jiang's father looked tired, Jiang Xia poured him a glass of water. Thinking that he was hungry, he went to the kitchen.

Zhou Chenglei held her back, motioning for her to stay, and he went to the kitchen.

Jiang Xia glanced at his tall and handsome figure and walked towards the kitchen.

She withdrew her gaze and listened to what Jiang's father said.

Father Jiang: "How long? Didn't I tell you the night before yesterday that I was going on a business trip to the neighboring city and would be back tonight?"

Mother Jiang: “…”

I did say, "But who knew you could go on a business trip after being taken away? I thought..."

Father Jiang said with a smile: "What do you think it is? It's just a routine questioning. They asked me to cooperate with the investigation. After a few questions, it's nothing. "

Not only was it nothing, he actually gained a lot!
