Her son, daughter, and granddaughter were all taken to the police station. Xia's mother and father arrived quickly and saw that the old woman's face was covered in bruises. In such hot weather, she was still wearing a hat.
After the two old men arrived, knowing they were in the wrong, they humbled themselves immensely and began to act as mediators: "Han Meng and Xia Ri are members of your Han family. Mengmeng really did make a foolish mistake today. We will definitely give them a serious talking-to when we get back."
"Could you please not investigate this further, considering we're all family?"
Xia's father: "You've already hit her, you've already scolded her, and Xiaoxiao is perfectly fine. Can't you just let it go like this?"
"This is the last time. If they dare to do it again, I will deal with them myself. You won't need to lift a finger."
Han Qiu listened from the side, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked. If these two old geezers weren't so tough that they couldn't withstand a single punch from him, he would have sent them flying.
Seeing the two old geezers shamelessly approaching, Han Qiulin raised his hand and slapped the old woman's hat off.
The next second, the entire room erupted in laughter.
The old woman's head was sparsely covered with hair, resembling that of an old turtledove, and her face was covered in injuries, making her look incredibly comical and ridiculous.
The old woman, seeing everyone laughing at her, was so angry she could barely speak: "You...you all..."
Before Xia's father could say anything, Old Master Han's hawk-like eyes shot towards Han Chengjun: "Where did your manly spirit go?"
Upon hearing this, Han Chengjun glanced at Xia Ji's parents with disgust and said in a voice devoid of warmth, "If you have evidence, stay. If you're here to act as mediators, get out of here."
“Han Chengjun, these are your wife and daughter. Lin Xiaoxiao is perfectly fine now. What you’re doing will ruin their lives,” Xia’s father advised from the side.
"Ruined their lives? Did I send them to harm others? Didn't they bring all of this upon themselves?"
"Get out of here right now. A crime is a crime. Those who deserve to go to jail should go to jail, and those who deserve to be shot should be shot."
"No matter how much you talk, it won't make a difference."
They've been given so many chances, but they've only changed superficially. After a while, they revert to their old ways. What's the point of saving such people?
He used to bully others and act arrogantly outside, but after such a short time, he actually harbored malicious intentions towards his own family. The fact that the two of them ended up like this is definitely related to him, but the Xia family's education played the biggest role here.
Having just finished tidying up her summer clothes, she came over here pleadingly, "Chengjun, it won't happen again, I promise. If they don't like us, I'll rent a place near the school and stay with Mengmeng so she can focus on her studies. If she continues to cause trouble, I'll be the first to stop her."
"You've all vented your anger today, and Mengmeng will definitely remember today's lesson. Please don't pursue this any further, okay?"
"And... my brother too, he was confused for a moment. Can we give him a chance too? We can compensate Xiaoxiao for her medical expenses and all kinds of losses. Whether it's kneeling or corporal punishment, we will not say a word."
Xia Ri pleaded desperately, saying that she could rely on her own daughter. She knew that Han Chengjun had always held a grudge against her, and that he had done many things for the sake of the child. Now that Han Meng had encountered such a thing.
Han Chengjun was not only disappointed in Han Meng, but also brought out his resentment towards himself.
No, if Han Chengjun is completely disappointed in me, and my brother on my mother's side also gets into trouble, I definitely won't be able to enjoy the treatment and leisurely life I used to have.
The same goes for Han Meng. If she's sent to jail, even if she's beautiful, it won't matter. What good son would marry a woman like that? In the end, Han Meng will only be able to marry down again and again, and she'll be completely kicked out of this circle.
Now, all we can do is beg Han Chengjun.
Han Chengjun is the easiest person to talk to in the Han family. He has a strong moral compass, is kind and upright, unlike the other members of the Han family. They look kind, but when it comes to trouble, they are all ruthless. It is no use asking them for help.
"With Han Meng's arrogant personality, sending her to school during the summer is just asking for other students to be bullied by her. Malicious people will never realize their mistakes."
"Only when one is truly threatened will one feel afraid and compromise."
Xia Ri shook her head: "No, no, Han Meng is really not bad. Have you forgotten her when she was little? Han Meng was well-behaved and cute when she was little, which means she is not bad at heart. I will definitely make her return to the way she was when she was little."
She now truly regrets letting Han Meng maintain contact with her maternal family. Before, when Han Meng lived with the Han family, even the old man liked her very much. How could things have turned out like this...?
"Not inherently bad? What a fine way to say she's not inherently bad. She was born bad. What did you think you were when you were young? You only got into the Han family by scheming. Han Meng has such a wicked side, all thanks to you."
"Someone like you shouldn't be talking about education. How can you educate Han Meng to seduce and scheme against others, putting on airs?" Han Qiulin had been holding these words in for a long time, and today he finally had the chance to say them.
Han Qiushi added insult to injury: "With a mother like you, no matter how much you educate her, she will still be bad at heart."
"It's incredibly unlucky to have someone like you in our family."
The old man stared at the two awful mother and daughter with a sullen face. He blamed himself for being too protective of his youngest son and not having the heart to be ruthless. He should have taken action back then and driven the entire Xia family out of the capital, so that Han Meng wouldn't have been led astray.
He looked at his youngest son and said sternly, "Divorce!"
Xia Ri looked at the old man in disbelief upon hearing this, and then immediately looked at Han Chengjun.
"No, no, we're both getting on in years, we can't get a divorce." Xia Ri walked to Han Chengjun's side, wanting to talk to him properly, "I really love you, whether in the past or now, you will always be the most important person to me. Without me, who will take care of you in the future?"
"I made a mistake, I'll change. From now on at home, I'll do whatever you say, even if it's east. Have you forgotten? I've always put you first in everything at home. We can't get a divorce!!"
Summer fell two lines of tears, trying to soften Han Chengjun's heart by adopting her most pitiful posture.
However, she didn't consider that she no longer looked as well-maintained as before. With such a pig-like face, she looked quite an eyesore when she went out.
