"What do you mean by saying that? My son is lying here! You still say such things to this dead man! I...I will fight you!" Mrs. Meng was like a beast out of a cage, roaring and rushing towards Chen Qingxuan. Just as she was about to hit Chen Qingxuan, she was grabbed by a big hand and pressed to the ground with her face against the ground.
Chen Qingxuan looked at Kong Wenmin, who was holding Madam Meng with both hands, in shock. Madam Meng was too sudden just now, and the two were not far away. He really couldn't dodge in time. Who knew that when she was about to hit him, in the blink of an eye, Madam Meng was pressed to the ground by Kong Wenmin. He didn't even see clearly when Kong Wenmin made the move.
"How dare you commit a crime in front of the adults?" Kong Wenmin said coldly. He looked at the yamen runners behind him and ordered, "Go get the handcuffs and shackles and keep an eye on her."
"Yes. I obey your command!" The yamen runner bowed and agreed. Then he trotted out.
"What do you mean? Our son was killed! Is there no place for him to seek justice?!" Meng Yuanwai's eyes were red with anger. He fell to his knees with a plop, pointing at Fang Zuotang with trembling fingers. "Master Fang, no matter what, you need to give us an explanation today. My son's death cannot be in vain! This is the only son I have. He... Although he is naughty and arrogant, he is also a filial son. How can my son deserve to die just because of that girl's words? Master Fang, if you don't give us an explanation today, if you can't bring the murderer to justice, we won't have to live a good life in the future!"
"It's not just Miss Gu's words. I was there at the time," Kong Wenmin said coldly. "When I passed by the dilapidated temple, I heard Miss Gu's crying from afar, and the sound of your son beating and scolding Miss Gu. Listening to the sound of him beating and scolding, he didn't sound like a filial son at all."
"So what? Even if my son scolded her, does that mean he should die?" Mr. Meng's face looked even uglier, his gray and white beard trembling. "Besides, who else but you can prove that my son beat and scolded her? Everyone saw it. My son is dead! The thing stuck in his chest was the silver hairpin on the girl's head!"
"My cousin went to get some wine, why was she taken to the ruined temple by your son? What did your son do to my cousin that a weak woman like my cousin would kill someone just to protect herself?" Chen Qingxuan's chest was heaving violently. He had never been so angry before. He couldn't imagine what kind of inhuman treatment Gu Qingtong had received that made him kill someone to protect himself. Even though Meng Wencai was already dead at this time, he still wanted to chop him twice more. He glared at Mr. Meng and said hysterically, "You keep saying that you want justice for your son, but where is justice for my cousin? Who can make the decision for her?!"
Yes, once this happened, it would not take long for everyone in Ningguta to know about it. No matter what Meng Wencai did to Gu Qingtong, and in what state of collapse and fear did Gu Qingtong pierce the silver hairpin into Meng Wencai's heart, the fact is that it was Gu Qingtong who killed Meng Wencai. Moreover, there is no shortage of people who do good things in this world. I am afraid that there will be countless versions of the story. How will Gu Qingtong get married in the future? Not to mention getting married, I am afraid it will be difficult for her to live. A young girl's family was ruined like this. Besides, the Meng family is also a little powerful in Ningguta. How can they let it go after losing their only son this time? Gu Qingtong and Chen Qingxuan's family will probably have a restless life in the future.
