"Comrade Factory Director." Zhou Xiang raised his voice and spoke.
"Hello, Miss Zhou! My last name is Xu."
"Director Xu."
"I dare not. Just call me Lao Xu."
"That won't do. A position symbolizes status and respect. Director Xu, here's what happened: your son was making a scene at the bridal chamber, and the bride wasn't paying attention. The flame from her lighter burned his forehead and bangs. He claims he spent 500 yuan on a perm, and it ruined his appearance. He needs 10,000 yuan in compensation. What do you think?"
"Don't pay any attention to him. My son is a show-off. The more you pay attention to him, the more excited he becomes. If the flame from the lighter only caught his bangs, it's probably just a burn on his forehead. It will heal in half a day."
"So, the story about his disfigurement doesn't exist?"
"No, he spent 50 yuan to perm his hair, and I just can't stand it! I have to thank Zhang Ning."
"Are you saying that there is no disfigurement in the young master's case today, and no compensation?"
"Yes, I don't need to see it, I know he is not disfigured, and there is no compensation issue for his hair either."
"Okay! Director Xu, as the head of the factory, must be a man of his word. Besides, the yard was full of people, and everyone heard what you said,
As for his blackmail and molesting of the bride, and even verbally attacking the groom, I forgive him on behalf of the newlyweds. Come on, everyone, speak up so Director Xu can hear how many witnesses there are."
After a while, the yard was already crowded with people. After hearing what Zhou Xiang said, although they didn't understand why Zhou Xiang forgave him so easily, they knew that the law does not punish everyone, so what was the problem with everyone testifying for Zhou Xiang and for the Ji family?
So everyone shouted in unison: Director Xu.
When Director Xu heard so many voices, his heart was pounding. It was obvious that his youngest son was not in the right. Not only did Zhou want to forgive him easily, but he also brought so many people as witnesses. Is this realistic?
After everyone's voices died down, Zhou Xiang spoke again, "You're busy with work and neglected to take care of your children. We all understand. Okay, we won't disturb you from your work anymore. Bye. See you at the banquet later."
"goodbye."
Director Xu replied mechanically, and after hanging up the phone, he felt uneasy. There must be something he had overlooked, but he couldn't remember it.
Xu Fanghui thought that today would not be the day to end peacefully, but he did not expect that Zhou Xiang was also a person who liked to keep things quiet.
院里众人也同样这么认为，以为是周想那爱人看不惯才动手揍人的，主动揍人理亏，周想也就息事宁人算了。
Principal Ji didn't think so. He saw with his own eyes what happened at Zhou Xiang's wedding. Zhou Xiang confronted the Kong family head-on in front of all the leaders in Beijing. How could he possibly let things go peacefully now?
As for what Zhou Xiang was up to, he could roughly guess.
Ji Bin and Zhang Ning felt the same way. Since Zhou Xiang had helped them deal with it, they were unwilling to argue with Xu Fanghui anymore.
Xu Fanghui is a scoundrel. If it were someone else, who knows how he would make such a fuss! However, if it were someone else, they wouldn't stand up for them, and they wouldn't want to provoke Xu Fanghui, this bastard.
Just when everyone thought the song was over and was about to disperse, someone with sharp eyes noticed that Xu Fanghui, who had crawled up from the ground, had a face full of red pockmarks, which looked very scary.
Before anyone could even scream in surprise, they noticed that the red spots began to grow larger and turned into blisters, very similar to chickenpox.
Xu Fanghui himself was unaware of this and was about to leave the Ji family. This frightened everyone in the yard so much that they stepped back and made way for him a few dozen centimeters.
The crowd's retreat and fear made Xu Fanghui smug. Humph! Even Zhou Xiang gave his father face, so it would be strange if these people were disrespectful to him.
After he left, everyone patted their chests, thinking it was too scary. Could it be that smallpox was contagious?
Zhou Xiang said to the terrified crowd, "Don't be afraid or hide. The older child's father has already said he's not disfigured, right?"
Disfigurement? Isn't that the same as disfigurement? No, just now when Zhou wanted to forgive easily, he specifically mentioned disfigurement, and now he mentions disfigurement again. There's a lot going on here!
Those who understood carefully asked, "Miss Zhou, it's not contagious, right?"
Zhou Xiang waved his hand. "Have you ever seen disfigurement be contagious? Don't worry! But you still have to be afraid. Otherwise, how can someone's tail be so proud?"
The courtyard was immediately filled with laughter. Yes! Just now, Xu Fanghui, with his face covered in blisters and his look of being the boss of the world, was really funny.
When Zhang Ning's parents came over and heard that the big-eyed girl was Zhou Xiangshi, they thought that their daughter could finally get a chance to show off.
But when they wanted to negotiate with the factory manager this week, he actually planned to settle the matter peacefully, which made them feel disappointed.
I didn't expect that there would be such a twist of events. That's great. This week I wanted to protect my daughter, but Xu Fanghui said that his daughter had ruined his appearance. Now, after everything has been settled, he is really disfigured. Haha, that feels great.
Zhang's father and mother no longer hesitated to face those customs. They walked up to Zhou Xiang, who was standing with their daughter, and said, "Miss Zhou, thank you for helping Zhang Ning."
Even without Zhang Ning's introduction, Zhou Xiang guessed their identities. "Uncle and aunt, you're welcome. Just call me by my name."
This simple and approachable sentence made Zhang's mother look forward to it. "Zhou Xiang, do you want to come home and have a visit?"
"Do you have any guests at home?"
Zhou Xiang wanted to refuse, but when she thought about how many people were proud to be close to her, and that Zhang's mother's face and eyes were full of pleading and expectation, she changed the subject.
Zhang's mother nodded repeatedly, "Yes! Let's go sit for a while."
She only gave birth to this one daughter, who had a rather bad temper. Today, she had heard a lot of gossip from her in-laws. When they heard that something had happened here, they all looked at her with a sneer.
"Okay! Come sit down for a while. I have to take care of the kids at home this morning. Otherwise, I'd be rushing over to see her off." Zhou Xiang took Zhang's mother's arm and said, "Let's go. While Zhang Ning is not home today, I want to take a look at her boudoir and her upbringing."
Zhang Ning's eyes moistened again. How could she not understand her mother's intentions? She had also been looked down upon by her grandmother and aunt since she was a child. Now, Zhou Xiang was willing to go because he was supporting her and her mother.
Ji Bin held his daughter-in-law's hand to comfort her.
Zhang's mother, who had been suppressed by grievances all her life, burst into tears when she was held in her arms. "Come on, I'll take you to see Zhang Ning's childhood photos."
"mom!"
Zhang Ning refused, and her mother turned around and waved her hand, ignoring her daughter's protest and took Zhou Xiang out of Ji's house.
Ling Ran quickly caught up with his wife.
Everyone in the yard made way for them. Unlike before, this time they did so willingly and happily. Zhou thought that this was really nice, down-to-earth, and caring. They also went to see how stubborn Zhang Ning was as a child.
Before Yu Si had the time to say hello to Zhou Xiang, he was snatched away by his in-laws.
Ji Zhongcheng pulled his lover, "Don't worry, there's still time to talk at the restaurant later."
