Chapter 127 Did you go to the bathroom and have a buffet before leaving?
The police arrived shortly after, and after checking the merchant’s surveillance footage, they determined what happened.
"Fight each other!?"
Li Ping yelled in agitation, pointing at Meng Zhiyi and continued to curse: "What are you doing? It was obviously her who did it!"
Meng Zhiyi curled her lips, looked at Li Ping with narrow eyes, and said nothing.
"Do you want to settle this matter privately or what?" The policeman ignored Li Ping and turned to look at Meng Zhiyi and asked.
In fact, to put it bluntly, the matter is not serious, and there is no problem for both parties to settle privately at this level.
But Meng Zhiyi's goal was not to solve the problem, but to make it bigger.
"It can't be settled privately. The compensation for the clothes they knocked over is very high. I'm still a student, how can I afford that much money?" She looked innocent and acted as if she wanted the parents to handle it.
"Then come back with us to the police station and let your family handle it." After the police said this, no matter how unwilling Li Ping was, she was taken away by the police.
In the police car, Meng Zhiyi hummed a little tune.
Li Ping glared at Meng Zhiyi angrily through the policeman in the middle, feeling anxious and angry.
Not long after, the Yuan and Meng families received a notice asking them to go to the police station to resolve the dispute.
Yuan Bolin was currently accompanying the elder to try to please him.
He is a college teacher and is planning to get a job assessment soon, so he wants the elder to give him a green channel.
When Yuan Bolin received the call, he was next to the old man.
Hearing that the call was from the police station, Yuan Bolin's face suddenly froze. He quickly glanced at the old man who was looking at him at the moment, and his heart was lifted.
"Okay, I'll come over and take care of it."
Although Yuan Bailin tried his best to cover his phone, the old man still heard some of his words because he was close to him.
"Why did the police call you?" The elder asked as soon as the call was hung up.
Yuan Bolin froze for a moment, then quickly adjusted his expression and said with a smile, "It was a student who got in trouble. Let me go over and deal with it."
The elder's eyes, which were filled with sorrow, were now sharp: "Is it the student or your wife?"
Yuan Bolin's expression changed slightly, his eyes flickered and he didn't dare to look directly into the old man's eyes.
"You have never told a lie since you were a child, and you still want to deceive me, an old man?" The elder snorted coldly and slapped his hand on the table.
Yuan Bolin trembled with fear, then immediately stood up from his chair, came to his knees in front of the old man.
This smooth movement, like flowing water, seemed to have been engraved into his bones.
The old man Yuan looked at his grandson kneeling in front of him with dignity without getting angry. Among the Yuan family's side branches, he was his favorite one.
But he made the most disgusting mistake!
So over the years, the elder master no longer cared about him, but let him fend for himself.
Fortunately, Yuan Bolin is also very capable. He is the only one in the declining Yuan family who inherited the ambition of the Yuan elder and became a college teacher.
The elder brother is a scholar. Although he did not achieve much in his time, the idea of "only education can bring success" is deeply engraved in his bones, so much so that he still looks down on those businessmen who are full of money.
This naturally includes Yuan Huiying who married into the Meng family.
"Tell me, what's going on?" The elder's voice was deep and contained a hint of an attitude that one should not be disobeyed.
Yuan Bolin bit his lip, closed his eyes, and said helplessly: "Li Ping and Xiao Xiao had a conflict with someone in the mall."
"How shameless!" The elder Yuan scolded angrily, "You can't even control your family now, right? She shamelessly did such a thing back then, and now she still doesn't know how to restrain herself outside. Do you want to bring disgrace to the Yuan family?"
Yuan Bolin lowered his head and listened quietly to the scolding from the elder.
After he had vented his anger, he finally spoke: "Don't worry, Grandpa, I will take care of it."
"If you don't handle it well, don't even think about the job assessment. I can't afford to lose face!" The elder said unhappily, then stood up and left, leaning on his crutches.
After he left, Yuan Bolin got up from the ground, bent down and brushed off the dust on his knees.
He stood there, eyes downcast, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, he turned and walked out.
Not long after, Yuan Bolin drove to the police station and ran into Meng Zhizhou and Meng Tinglan who happened to be there.
The two families never interacted with each other, and it could even be said that they were incompatible.
Yuan Bolin ignored him and walked straight towards the police station as if he didn't see him.
Meng Tinglan followed behind Meng Zhizhou and said with a curled lip, "The Yuan family is just self-righteous. They really think they are very noble. They look down on others."
Meng Zhizhou had a blank expression on his face. Thinking of their great-grandmother who looked down on businessmen, he was speechless.
They have not been accepted by the relatives of the Yuan family since they were young, even though the gifts that the Meng family sends to the Yuan family every year are the best.
These people ate the high-end gifts they sent, while looking down on the Meng family for being a merchant family.
This behavior made the Meng family very unhappy.
But because of Meng Mu's relationship, they couldn't just cut off contact, so they reduced their contacts with the Yuan family and only sent gifts during festivals.
After complaining a few words, the two brothers forgot about Yuan Berlin.
"What trouble has my little sister gotten into this time that has necessitated calling in the parents?" Meng Tinglan said with one hand hanging down, looking worried.
"Let's meet her first before asking." Meng Zhizhou walked in front. His well-tailored suit made him look elegant and he walked with style.
Soon, the two came to a mediation room.
When Meng Zhizhou opened the door, he saw Meng Zhi sitting there leisurely with his legs crossed and his arms folded across his chest.
Opposite her, Li Ping and Yuan Xiaoxiao were crying and complaining to Yuan Bolin.
Meng Zhizhou and Meng Tinglan were both slightly stunned; they really didn't expect this to be the case.
As the two of them walked in, Li Ping became even more excited.
"Is this how you, the Meng family, educate your children? What kind of things have you taught them? Don't you understand respecting the elderly and loving the young?"
Meng Zhiyi smiled deeply at his two brothers and said, "Respecting the old and loving the young is also for people. Some people take advantage of their age to bully the old and take advantage of their youth to bully the young. They are not worthy of these four words."
"Listen to what you are saying." Li Ping pointed at Meng Zhiyi, her face full of grievance: "Uneducated is uneducated."
Meng Zhiyi grinned, "You are well-mannered. You are so well-mannered that you climbed into the bed of your best friend's fiancé and even forced her to marry you. That's great."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room changed their expressions.
The police officers in charge of mediation had expressions as if they had heard something shocking. Meng Tinglan and Meng Zhizhou looked at Meng Zhiyi as if he were a warrior, while Yuan Bolin and Li Ping had gloomy faces.
"You little bastard, keep talking nonsense!" Li Ping cursed without thinking.
Meng Zhiyi clapped his hands: "Hey, hey, hey, why don't you show your manners now? You keep calling me a scumbag. You have a foul mouth. Did you go to the restroom and have a buffet before you left?"
Li Ping didn't know how to refute Meng Zhiyi, while Meng Zhizhou and Meng Tinglan held back their laughter and had no intention of stopping her.
Yuan Bolin had never been so humiliated since he was born, except for the time when Li Ping plotted against him.
With a sullen face, he pulled Li Ping back and scolded her: "Shut up and say less!"
Li Ping bit her lip and looked at him with tears in her eyes, looking extremely aggrieved.
Yuan Bolin ignored him and turned to look at Meng Zhizhou, asking coldly, "This is someone from your Meng family, how do you deal with him?"
