Xiong Jing's heart grew colder and colder.
She broke down and screamed, "Let go of me! She fell on her own, it has nothing to do with me!"
Song Jianmin scoffed, "I saw you push her down with my own eyes!"
Xiong Jing hurriedly pleaded, "Song Jianmin, don't you all hate Liu Aimei? Even if she's dead, it has nothing to do with you. You should be happy! Please let me go, I beg you, please let me go..."
Song Jianmin slapped Xiong Jing on the head: "Shut up, you bastard!"
Xiong Jing cried uncontrollably, begging for mercy to no avail, and then began to angrily curse Song Jianmin.
"You're so nosy! Let me go, let me go!!"
Song Jianmin yelled, "Shut up! You're noisier than a duck!"
Song Jianmin did hate Liu Aimei, that's true, but he couldn't bear to watch Liu Aimei get killed.
He couldn't do that even if it were a stranger, a beggar.
Chen Zhou quickly arrived with doctors and nurses, followed by two security guards.
Doctors and nurses carried Liu Aimei on a stretcher.
Song Jianmin grabbed Xiong Jing by the collar, intending to hand him over to the security guards. As for calling the police or whatever, he would leave that to them; Song Jianmin didn't want to get involved too much.
Xiong Jing struggled incessantly, scratching Song Jianmin's face and neck in the process.
"Hey, I'm disfigured!" Song Jianmin hissed. "You guys keep an eye on her."
Chen Zhou frowned. "Song Jianmin, are you alright?"
Song Jianmin forced a smile: "It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."
Their location was behind the hospital, very close to it, and Liu Aimei was taken directly inside for surgery.
Liu Aimei was unconscious. The hospital security guards called the police and sent Xiong Jing to the police station. The police stopped Song Jianmin and his companion who were about to leave the hospital.
"We need you to make a statement so we can understand the situation."
"Do you know the injured person?"
Song Jianmin coughed lightly, "She is Liu Aimei, my former sister-in-law, and has nothing to do with our family anymore."
Why were you at the scene of the incident?
Song Jianmin: "We didn't expect this either. In short, this matter is complicated..."
Police officer: "Then please get to the point. We need to understand the situation."
Chen Zhou glanced at Song Jianmin, "Let me speak."
Chen Zhou: "We came to the hospital with our family and unexpectedly saw Xiong Jing and Liu Aimei here. Liu Aimei is his former sister-in-law and Xiong Jing is Liu Aimei's cousin. When we were about to leave the hospital, we saw the two arguing. We felt something was wrong, so we followed them... and that's when we saw what just happened."
Chen Zhou didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the Chen family and Xiong Jing. She just wanted to stay away from the Chen family. As for other things... the police investigation would definitely find out the relationship between Xiong Jing and her daughter and the Chen family, but that was none of Chen Zhou's business.
Anyway, she and Song Jianmin have done what they needed to do.
Song Jianmin: "Officers, if you have nothing else to do, we'll be leaving now. We have to go to school tomorrow."
"...Are you university students?"
Song Jianmin nodded, "We need to get back to the city in a hurry."
Liu Aimei was hit on the forehead and has already had stitches. Now she's just waiting to wake up. They've also learned about the case pretty well. Song Jianmin and the other man have nothing else to do, so they're preparing to go back to the city.
After all that fuss, it was already past four in the afternoon.
They haven't had lunch yet.
Song Jianmin: "Let's eat something first before we go back."
Chen Zhou responded with an "Mmm".
The two randomly chose a small restaurant. While waiting for their food, they looked at each other and sighed.
I never expected to run into something like this!
The wickedness of the human heart!
Xiong Jing has fallen to this state... No matter who is to blame, she is the one who should be most blamed.
Liu Aimei, her family, or even Xiong's mother all bear responsibility, but the biggest problem lies with Xiong Jing herself.
If she hadn't done those shady things, would she be in this situation now?
Fortunately, my parents separated from my eldest son and his family. If they hadn't separated, they might not have gotten divorced, and Liu Aimei might have made a huge scene.
The Song family would then become a laughing stock in Heping Lane.
Song Jianmin recalled his past misdeeds...
He glanced at Chen Zhou.
Fortunately, Chen Zhou didn't know much about it.
After finishing their meal and filling their stomachs, the two felt better.
Song Jianmin took Chen Zhou's hand and led her to the station.
On the way back, Chen Zhou was drowsy from the bumpy ride, so Song Jianmin pulled him onto his shoulder and he closed his eyes as well.
It was already past six o'clock in the evening when we arrived at Heping Lane.
Chen Zhou shook off Song Jianmin's hand and asked him, "You have to tell Uncle Song and Aunt Xu about this, right?"
Song Jianmin nodded, "We need to let them know."
The two walked slowly. Chen Zhou moved her lips and heard Song Jianmin ask her, "What do you want to say?"
Chen Zhou shook his head. "It's nothing."
When they arrived at their doorstep, Chen Zhou took out his key, opened the door, and went inside.
She stood inside the door and waved to Song Jianmin.
"Go back now."
Song Jianmin: "Let's go out and have fun tomorrow."
"Where to?" Chen Zhou blinked.
"Let's talk outside."
Staying in Heping Lane, where we can't even hold hands, is pointless.
Song Jianmin quickly arrived at the Song family home and knocked on the door.
"Grandpa and Grandma, Mom and Dad, Second Sister-in-law..."
Soon, footsteps came from inside, and Song Yangmin opened the door.
"Second brother, you're back?"
Song Yangmin hummed in response, "What's wrong? Is something the matter?"
Song Jianmin coughed lightly, "There's something I need to take care of. Have Mom and Dad come back yet?"
"at home."
Song Jianmin tentatively stuck one foot into the house, saying, "I have something important to say."
Seeing his reaction, Song Yangmin smiled and said, "Alright, come in and leave after you've finished talking."
