Chapter 305 A Storyteller
"Mutually." Jian Qingyi curled her lips slightly.
There are too many smart people and not enough fools.
"Everything I said is true." Liu Meili looked confident.
Afraid that Jian Qingyi wouldn't believe her, she added, "If I tell a lie, I'll be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."
"Why didn't you say it before?" Jian Qingyi's eyes were sharp.
It’s been so long since Ming Haiping’s incident, and now you’re bringing it up again, what were you doing before?
"I only found out about the child when I went back to visit my relatives this time." Liu Meili's eyes were red again.
"Ming Haiping is a really good person. I don't want him to be sucked dry by others after he dies."
This time she went back to visit her relatives just to find the answer.
"Ming Haiping and I have known each other since we were little. We went to the fields together to pick grass for pigs, went up the mountain to collect firewood, and went to the river to wash clothes together. One time, my clothes were accidentally washed away by the river. I was worried about getting beaten when I got home, so I jumped into the water without a care in the world. But when I got in, I realized that the stream, which looked shallow, was deep enough to cover my head..."
"If it weren't for Ming Haiping, I might have gone to see the King of Hell long ago."
"Since you were childhood sweethearts, why didn't you get together in the first place?" Jian Qingyi was quite curious about this.
"Do you think we don't want to?" Liu Meili smiled bitterly.
"His stepmother was afraid that he would find a wife outside and become unruly, so she stopped giving them their allowance. So she secretly found a marriage for him. By the time he got the news and rushed back to stop it, the woman had already entered the house."
"He originally wanted to give them some money and send them back. His stepmother agreed on the surface, but she secretly put drugs in their bowls of noodles and forced them to do something."
A bitter smile appeared on Liu Meili's lips.
"Ming Haiping's stepmother is so hateful..." Jian Liqiu slammed the table in anger.
She deserves to die for breaking up a pair of lovers for her own selfish reasons.
"Yi Yi, help her." Jian Liqiu turned her head and grabbed Jian Qingyi's arm.
Not only did Ming Haihui's mother break up the lovers, she also killed Ming Haiping's only child left in this world.
Now……
Ming Haihui is still sucking Ming Haiping's blood.
Just thinking about it made Jian Liqiu feel angry.
"Why don't you go and report it yourself?" Jian Qingyi patted Jian Liqiu's hand soothingly and looked up at Liu Meili.
"I have no evidence and no witnesses." Liu Meili picked at her fingers in frustration.
Ming Haiping is gone.
Ming Haihui's mother passed away some time ago.
The parties involved are no longer around.
Even if Ming Haihui's mother were still alive, she would never admit the bad things she had done.
"You have neither evidence nor witnesses. Why do you think I will believe your empty words?" Jian Qingyi asked.
There was a long silence.
Liu Meili looked up at Jian Qingyi and said, "I think you will help us."
"Do I look idle?" The expression on Jian Qingyi's face remained unchanged.
"Yi Yi..." Jian Liqiu pushed Jian Qingyi's arm.
Jian Qingyi sighed.
"Second sister, please stop pushing me. If you push me again, I'm going to fall apart."
"I..."
Jian Qingyi glanced over.
Jian Liqiu didn't dare to say a word.
"Do you dare to confront me face to face?" Jian Qingyi looked at Liu Meili.
Liu Meili nodded.
"Let's go!" Jian Qingyi stood up and walked out.
Liu Meili followed without any hesitation.
Jian Liqiu frowned and watched the two of them walk away.
The art troupe is a certain distance away from the office building. It is training time now. Along the way, you can see people training everywhere.
In the military district, Jian Qingyi's face is her pass.
When the two of them arrived at the small conference room on the first floor, the argument inside had already reached a fever pitch.
Ming Haihui's sobbing voice could be heard from eight feet away.
Liu Meili looked gloomy and wanted to knock on the door.
It was obvious that he didn't want to endure it for even a minute.
Jian Qingyi grabbed her raised hand.
"Wait a moment." Afraid that the people inside might hear, Jian Qingyi just opened her mouth but didn't make any sound, showing Liu Meili her lip movements.
"Listen first." Then she pointed to the door of the conference room.
I don’t know what the situation is inside. If I go in rashly, I won’t know where to start.
Jian Qingyi pulled Liu Meili and prepared to listen at the door for a while.
Liu Meili waved her hands quickly.
Obviously, he doesn't approve of eavesdropping.
Jian Qingyi ignored her.
She doesn't listen, she listens.
Who knew she would just put her ear closer.
The door was suddenly opened from the inside.
Jian Qingyi's action of half-turning her body to eavesdrop was exposed in front of everyone.
Also exposed was of course Liu Meili, who tried to stop Jian Qingyi from eavesdropping.
The originally tense atmosphere was instantly dissipated by her doing this.
Jian Qingyi smiled, retracted her ears that had stuck out, and stood up slightly straighter.
Liu Meili, feeling shy and embarrassed, only then remembered to salute the people in the room.
"Sister-in-law, what are you going to do?" Zhou Chenfeng asked sarcastically.
"Hasn't I shown it clearly enough?" Jian Qingyi smiled with her eyes curved.
There was no embarrassment of being caught at all.
Lu Yujing and Qin Mengjie, who were sitting in the innermost seat, stood up and walked over.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Because there were outsiders present, Lu Yujing didn't reach out to hold his young wife's hand, but only asked Meng Xiaoyang to pour a glass of water.
"I can't sleep." Jian Qingyi smiled at the man, turned her head and put her arm around Qin Mengjie's arm.
"Mom, I just went to the art troupe to look for you. They said you were here. Haven't you finished your work yet?"
"We have to wait a while." Qin Mengjie glanced at the people sitting by the window and motioned Jian Qingyi to go in and sit for a while.
Liu Meili stood outside the door and didn't dare to go in.
Although she looked so heroic and confident just now, she immediately became timid when she met Lu Yujing's cold eyes.
Jian Qingyi waved at her.
Only then did she follow Jian Qingyi in with her brows lowered.
"Sister-in-law, who is she?" Zhou Chenfeng asked in a low voice.
"A person who loves to tell stories." Jian Qingyi gave him a look and let him slowly experience it.
Zhou Chenfeng smiled.
Love storytellers...
After this interruption, no one knew how to pick up the previous topic.
For a moment, the atmosphere was silent.
After a while.
The young man sitting by the window spoke up, "It was Uncle Ming and Aunt Ming who first proposed the marriage. Although we don't have a formal marriage certificate, who in the village doesn't know that you and I are engaged?"
"I really don't know. My parents and brother never told me." Ming Haihui wiped her tears pitifully.
"Hui girl, you said you didn't know about the engagement, but you must know that my son brought good wine and food to your house, right?" The middle-aged woman sitting next to the young man angrily tucked her scattered hair behind her ears.
She was not like this when she was eating his meat and drinking his wine.
"Aunt, my parents and brother really never told me about this." Ming Haihui insisted that she didn't know.
The negotiations reached a deadlock again.
