Meng Wanyue, who was standing aside, felt particularly uncomfortable as she watched everyone surrounding Jiang Xiachu and Lin Qingli in such a happy atmosphere.
Her eyes flickered and she put on a smile. She deliberately walked forward and took Cheng Nianhua's arm, wanting to take her away.
In this way, I can feel more balanced.
"Mom, it's getting late. Since the assessment of the art troupe is over, let's go home together."
"It's a good opportunity for us to stop by the vegetable market and buy some vegetables to take back."
Meng Wanyue deliberately made her tone sound more intimate, secretly reminding Jiang Xiachu.
Only she, Cheng Nianhua and Lu Huaiyan are a real family.
However, Cheng Nianhua didn't want to pay any attention to her at all, and all his attention was still on Jiang Xiachu.
"If you're hungry, go back first. You don't have to cook for me. I'm not sure if I want to go back to eat later."
"Xia Chu just finished the assessment. I have to stay and see if there is anything I can do to help."
After briefly explaining a few things, Cheng Nianhua couldn't wait to return to Jiang Xiachu and asked her about her well-being.
Even if she is my biological daughter, she is no more than this.
A hint of jealousy and unwillingness flashed in Meng Wanyue's eyes, and she almost couldn't control the expression on her face.
Such a scene made Meng Anyao unable to bear it.
She took Xiang Xue's hand with a sullen face, ready to leave first.
"The entrance to the Cultural Palace is so small. I don't know why everyone is crowded here. Aren't they worried about air circulation?"
"Anyway, the list of new members for the art troupe will take another day or two to come out, so let's go back first and not let irrelevant people affect our mood."
Xiang Xue naturally nodded and agreed.
But just when the two of them were about to leave, Jiang Xiachu suddenly turned around and stopped Xiang Xue.
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave? We haven't finished dealing with the affairs of the art troupe yet."
It was still that smiling face, but the coldness in her eyes made her look inexplicably imposing.
Jiang Xiachu today was really unfamiliar to Xiang Xue.
For a moment, she even felt afraid.
This made Xiang Xue's eyes flicker involuntarily, and before she could even open her mouth, her attitude softened a bit.
"I don't understand what you're saying."
"If you need help with the art troupe, then go contact the people in charge. Why are you telling me? It's really incomprehensible."
After saying this in a cowardly manner, Xiang Xue turned around and wanted to leave with Meng Anyao.
Jiang Xiachu, however, had no intention of letting her go. He stopped her again and made everything clear to her.
"Isn't Xiang Xuemin your brother? We haven't investigated the situation over there yet. Are you planning to just abandon him like this?"
"It's useless even if you want to leave. Tampering with the registration list of the art troupe is a serious crime. Since it has something to do with your brother, you will definitely not be able to escape responsibility."
"If you don't plan to stay and tell the truth, be careful that the police will come to your door."
Xiang Xue's face turned pale. If the police really came to her house for questioning, she didn't know what the neighbors would say about her.
She is a young girl who just graduated, why does she care about her reputation?
"You, you have no evidence, why do you say that!"
Xiang Xue tried her best to refute.
But against the backdrop of her panicked eyes, all the words she said seemed particularly weak.
"Xiang Xuemin is indeed my brother, but he is him and I am me. What does what he did have to do with me?"
"Don't think you can scare me by showing off your public security comrades."
Jiang Xiachu looked at her with a half-smile: "If you really think you are innocent, then why do you have to feel so guilty?"
Just one sentence was enough to instantly ruin Xiang Xue's plan.
Jiang Xiachu looked at her on the verge of emotional collapse, but he didn't feel very happy at all.
Although she didn't have much contact with Xiang Xue, she knew her character to some extent.
Xiang Xue alone would never be so courageous as to risk her brother's career to cause trouble.
There must be someone behind this to back her up.
Who else but Meng Anyao could have such a strong background and be so close to Xiang Xue?
It is really hard not to wonder whether what happened today is also related to Meng Anyao.
Jiang Xiachu thought of this and glanced coldly at Meng Anyao.
Before she even opened her mouth to speak, Meng Anyao instantly revealed an unhappy expression.
"If you want to check, go ahead. The problem with your own assessment quota is your own business. It has nothing to do with us. Don't come here and waste our time."
She relies on her parents' status to act arrogantly outside.
Jiang Xiachu didn't buy her trick at all, and responded directly with a firm attitude:
"Anyway, the assessment has already ended. No matter what I do, it won't affect the normal process."
"Someone has tampered with my assessment quota. I will not leave until I have investigated thoroughly today. Xiang Xue is involved and cannot leave either."
"As for other insignificant personnel, please do as you please."
