"Lanxi, you're just too kind. That's why I've been bullied by Jiang Yue all this time. This time, I'm going to get justice for you no matter what."
Pei Hengzhi held Zhao Lanxi's hand with heartache, his anger and guilt almost overwhelming him.
“Lu Jingnian, Jiang Yue made a mistake, and she must come out and apologize to Lanxi.”
Jiang Zheng, who had followed, couldn't help but speak up, "Pei Hengzhi, calm down first. Didn't Jing Nian say that if it really is my sister's fault, we will definitely make her apologize to Zhao Lanxi?"
But the matter hasn't even been clarified yet, and you're already concluding that my sister is wrong? Isn't that a bit too hasty?
"Isn't it obvious now? Jiang Yue hit Lanxi. Look at Lanxi's face, it's still swollen. That can't be wrong, can it?"
Pei Hengzhi's angry voice could be heard throughout the entire building.
“There are many reasons for hitting someone, how can you be so sure that Yueyue was wrong?”
Lu Jingnian's voice came through, cold and unreadable, calm to the point of being frightening.
"Lu Jingnian, are you really that sure Jiang Yue is right?"
Pei Hengzhi sneered, "Before, I didn't want to tell you some things because we were comrades-in-arms, and I was afraid of hurting you. But today I have to tell you that Jiang Yue used to always pester me. She married you just to spite me. You may not know, but the day before your wedding, she came to me and asked me to crash the wedding. Lu Jingnian, do you really believe that a woman like that will live a good life with you?"
No sooner had Pei Hengzhi finished speaking than a figure rushed up from downstairs and slapped him across the face.
Jiang Yue stared intently at Pei Hengzhi, her eyes filled with disgust and contempt. "Pei Hengzhi, you're really disgusting. Do you want to know why I hit Zhao Lanxi today? It's because she had a fit like you this morning and said things she shouldn't have."
After saying that, Jiang Yue quickly walked up to Lu Jingnian, looked into his eyes with a wronged yet sincere expression, and said to him in a very serious tone, "Husband, you know what I was like before. I did do a lot of wrong and absurd things, but I really am changing."
I can't change what's past, if you really mind...
Before Jiang Yue could finish speaking, Lu Jingnian said, "I don't mind or care. Just like you said, when I agreed to marry you, I already knew what you had done in the past. Since I still agreed to marry you even though I knew those things, it means I don't mind those things from the past."
Yueyue, I only care about you now and in the future.
Jiang Zheng, who was standing to the side, laughed when he heard Lu Jingnian's words.
Jiang Yue is his only younger sister. Although Jiang Yue was indeed immature in the past, Jiang Zheng still loves his sister very much and naturally hopes that his sister will live a good life and have someone who truly loves and cherishes her.
Jiang Zheng never thought Pei Hengzhi and Jiang Yue could be together. Even if they were, Pei Hengzhi wasn't the kind of man who would care for someone.
"Yueyue, did you go to town to buy groceries?" Jiang Zheng asked with a smile, glancing at the cloth bag Jiang Yue had brought back.
"yes."
Jiang Yue handed the cloth bag to Lu Jingnian. "Jingnian said last night that he wanted to ask a few comrades to help tidy up the vegetable garden we just allocated. Since we're asking for help, we should treat them to a meal. We don't have much food left at home, so I went to town to buy some."
"Big brother, Jingnian and I will cook you something delicious tonight."
Jiang Zheng smiled and nodded, looking at Pei Hengzhi, "Hengzhi, you said before that my sister was guilty and fled, but now you see, my sister just went to town to buy groceries, so you were wrong about that."
“Yueyue, Hengzhi and the others told Jingnian that you hit Zhao Lanxi and that you bullied her. Tell us what exactly happened.”
Although Jiang Zheng dotes on Jiang Yue, if Jiang Yue is truly in the wrong, he will definitely make her apologize to Zhao Lanxi.
"Okay, then I'll tell you what happened this morning again."
Jiang Yue looked at Zhao Lanxi and quickly recounted in detail how she met Xiao Pang that morning and how she had a conflict with Zhao Lanxi.
After speaking, Jiang Yue looked coldly at Zhao Lanxi and Pei Hengzhi: "This is what happened. Yuanyuan was there at the time. If you don't believe me, you can ask him. I hit Zhao Lanxi because she repeatedly tried to sow discord between me and Lu Jingnian."
You all know I have a bad temper. She tried to ruin my relationship with Lu Jingnian, so slapping her was the least I could do. If it happens again, I'll tear her mouth apart.
"Jiang Yue, you're just making excuses."
Zhao Lanxi denied it, crying aggrievedly, "So what if I said those two sentences? If you and Battalion Commander Lu have a good relationship, would I need to sow discord?"
Besides, did I say something wrong? Didn't you ever like Hengzhi before?
Jiang Yue wasn't afraid of her tears and retorted without hesitation: "You said it yourself, that was in the past. I admit my mistakes from before, so I'm changing now. As the saying goes, a prodigal son who returns is more precious than gold. Now that I've turned back, you keep dwelling on what I did in the past. Is that really necessary?"
She has never lost an argument.
"Zhao Lanxi, are you jealous because you can't stand seeing me doing well? You're just jealous that my husband treats me so well, aren't you?"
That's why they were so malicious, trying to ruin our relationship.
"I don't."
Zhao Lanxi cried and loudly retorted, "Hengzhi, I really didn't."
Although Pei Hengzhi felt sorry for Zhao Lanxi, after hearing Jiang Yue's description of what happened, his expression became somewhat conflicted. It seemed that Lanxi had indeed started this whole thing, just as she had said before.
It was certainly wrong of Jiang Yue to hit her, but Lanxi's words were also problematic.
"Hengzhi, why aren't you saying anything? Don't you believe me?" Zhao Lanxi became anxious when she saw that Pei Heng didn't stand by her side immediately, and she cried even harder.
She was really afraid that Pei Hengzhi would favor Jiang Yue. Before Pei Hengzhi liked her, he treated Jiang Yue the best. She worked hard for a long time to make Pei Hengzhi dislike Jiang Yue and fall in love with her.
"No, Lanxi, don't overthink it, I believe you."
After all, she was his girlfriend, so even if Pei Hengzhi was conflicted, he would protect Zhao Lanxi first.
“Jiang Yue, even if what Lanxi said is wrong, it is still wrong of you to hit her. You must apologize to Lanxi.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Jingnian's face instantly turned cold. Just as he was about to speak, Jiang Yue pulled his hand.
Jiang Yue shook her head at Lu Jingnian, then said to Pei Hengzhi, "Pei Hengzhi, your double standards are truly astonishing and disgusting. You clearly said that what Zhao Lanxi said was wrong, but instead of making her apologize to me, you only made me apologize to her. Why should I?"
