Her originally rosy lips gradually turned bluish, and the color drained from her face.
When she fell to the ground, Wei Wei deliberately found a perfect spot to brace her ribs with her elbow. When she landed, she injured her arm, and Jiang Changhe's ribs were broken.
However, because it happened so fast, I was temporarily numb. When I recovered, I realized how much it hurt!
On the contrary, the small injury on her hand was only scary to look at.
If Jiang Changhe doesn't want to leave, fine, then let's all just endure it a little longer and see who can outlast whom.
Wei Wei, with her eyes closed, didn't say a word, while Xiao Yue'er and the other girl who had been stopped were already crying anxiously.
"Help! Help! The young mistress is injured!"
Their voices finally alerted the Meng family servants scattered around, who rushed over, only to be stopped at the door by those who had arrived first.
Still dressed in his official uniform, "Third Brother" strode in. When he saw Jiang Changhe, who was acting like a shrew, his forehead veins bulged with anger.
"Chang He! What are you doing!" A chilling question startled Jiang Chang He, making his eyelashes tremble.
She looked in a panic toward the source of the sound, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes.
Taking advantage of this moment, Aunt Nie immediately pulled her up from the ground, and the servants who had been blocking Xiaoyue'er and Xiaoqiao'er also obediently stopped.
After being helped up, Wei Wei gasped for breath and said in a hoarse voice, "If you go crazy in my Meng family's mourning hall, be careful the dead come back to life and come after you in the middle of the night!"
Her appearance was extremely disheveled, and with the blood flowing down her clothes, it was beyond description.
Upon seeing the officials, those who had been standing nearby couldn't help but exchange glances, their eyes filled with sympathy.
No wonder Miss Jiang is so arrogant; it turns out her family has connections in government, and they seem to be high-ranking officials.
"How pitiful."
Someone whispered.
Third Brother's gaze was like a knife, cutting into Jiang Changhe's flesh, making her feel increasingly uneasy.
He didn't say anything more, but gave Jiang Changhe a warning look before turning to Wei Wei.
"My little sister is used to being willful. I hope that Mrs. Meng will be magnanimous and forgive her this time."
Third Brother's attitude was quite good, but Wei Wei still laughed sarcastically: "She tried to kill me in my house, and now you, her noble official brother, are helping her. You openly swagger into other people's homes and expect them to forgive you?"
With red eyes, she looked at the onlookers around her: "Gentlemen and ladies who have come to offer their condolences, if you encountered such a thing, would you still dare to live peacefully in Loucheng?"
"Aren't you afraid of losing your life someday?"
The crowd's eyes flickered; although no one spoke, they seemed to agree with her.
Anyone would be terrified to have a grudge against someone in the officialdom.
We're all businessmen. Although we can usually get to know these constables after handing over our money, if we really offend someone we shouldn't, we won't even know how we died.
Everyone's thoughts were on their faces, and Third Brother's eyes grew increasingly gloomy.
I've reminded this troublemaker time and time again to keep a low profile and operate in the shadows, but now she's acting like she's afraid people won't recognize her!
If those people in the capital find out his whereabouts, how can he carry out his plans?
Thinking of this, his tone turned icy: "Apologize!"
Jiang Changhe was furious. Although her third brother was always very strict, he always protected her. Now he wanted her to apologize!
Her lips twitched, but when she saw Wei Wei's ambiguous smile, her anger flared up again, and her voice became irritable: "Why should I apologize? I won't apologize!"
Third Brother's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he had completely lost patience.
He just stared at Jiang Changhe like that, making the person's legs tremble.
Jiang Changhe knew how cold-blooded his third brother could be when he became ruthless.
She was a little scared and finally dared not say anything more.
However, when he turned to look at Wei Wei, the killing intent in his eyes almost solidified into a tangible form.
No need to apologize.
Wei Wei spoke decisively, tears welling in her eyes as she looked at the other officials blocking the servants' path outside the house: "My life is unfortunate, I cannot afford an apology from you noble people."
"There's no need to pretend here anymore. Let's just kill us."
"That way, I won't have to live in fear and sleepless nights in the future."
The whispers around them grew louder.
Although no one has stood out, it seems like everyone has.
They exclaimed, "How could there be such a family?"
"To treat someone like this, is it just a simple, half-hearted apology?"
Only a fool would accept that!
The other person immediately pointed a finger: "Shh, keep your voice down, do you want to get into trouble too?"
These people's voices pierced Jiang Changhe's chest like needles.
Normally, she would have had these people arrested and killed, but the situation was different now, and she could no longer make that decision.
Anger surged wildly within her, and the apology felt like tearing away the last veil of modesty, making it impossible for her to utter.
Seeing that she was still biting her lip and refusing to speak, the third brother's face finally darkened completely.
He stepped forward and cupped his hands towards Wei Wei, saying, "Young Madam Meng, please calm down. I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!"
Having said that, he no longer held back, stepped forward and slapped Jiang Changhe across the face, scolding, "You've forgotten all the manners and upbringing you've had over the years!"
Jiang Changhe touched his aching face, staring intently at the person in front of him, his voice filled with disbelief: "You hit me, you hit me for this bitch?"
"She doesn't deserve my apology at all!"
Third Brother took a deep breath, the last trace of gentleness in his eyes completely gone: "You have really disappointed me."
"It's not suitable for me to stay here any longer."
He said expressionlessly to the servants around him, "Take her back to the Jiang residence to pack her belongings, then put her in a carriage and send her back to the capital!"
Jiang Changhe was unwilling.
Having enjoyed wealth and honor for over a decade, and been arrogant and conceited for just as long, she was now humiliated standing before these lowly people. Enraged, she pushed aside the servants who came forward and ran towards the main gate.
"I'm not going back, I'm staying here!" she cried out.
Before he could finish speaking, he had just stepped across the threshold when he suddenly stumbled and fell to the ground.
She screamed "Ah!" and fell heavily to the ground, unresponsive!
He fainted on the spot.
