Chapter 1436: Refusing to be Balanced (11)
Tang Shichu finally persuaded Li Manyan to return to the company, and asked her to be patient and not really resign. She should stick to it for Lan Jigao...
Just like the original owner's life, Li Manyan watched her struggling in the quagmire of marriage, and finally mustered up the courage to divorce, but was dissuaded by her eloquent persuasion.
Tang Shichu and Zhou Zhan had an appointment to go to the library. When they went to the bottom of his dormitory, they saw a group of people gathered together, making a lot of noise.
Very lively.
When she got closer, she saw that the people in the center of the crowd were Zhou Zhan and a middle-aged woman dressed in rich clothes.
"You're fine! Why don't you forgive my son? It won't take you much time to write a letter of apology, why don't you agree?" The middle-aged woman grabbed Zhou Zhan's arm tightly and questioned aggressively.
"Let me go!" Zhou Zhan tried hard to shake off the woman's hand, but his sprained foot had not healed yet and he was half disabled. The woman was very strong and unreasonable, so he was so angry that his face turned red, but he couldn't break free.
"I won't let you go unless you agree to my request!" the middle-aged woman shouted confidently, "How much money do you want in order to write a letter of apology? How about 100,000? 200,000! 200,000 and still not willing? I advise you not to be too greedy..."
"No matter how much money you offer me, I will never forgive your son." Zhou Zhan gritted his teeth, not prepared to compromise at all.
"Auntie, this is too much. Chen Yong almost hit Zhou Zhan to death, and you still ask him to forgive your son? This is too much!" A classmate who was watching couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up for Zhou Zhan.
"He wasn't killed, was he? He just sprained his limbs. Why are you so squeamish? Zhou Zhan, as a grown man, can't you be a little more tolerant? My son was just impulsive and too angry to hit you. Besides, if you hadn't hooked up with his girlfriend, would he have been so reckless?" Chen Yong's mother started to blame Zhou Zhan, "In the end, it's your fault for not being disciplined! How could my son not be angry if you cheated on him? If you still have a conscience, you must forgive Chen Yong!"
Zhou Zhan pursed his thin lips tightly, anger rising on his handsome face. He closed his eyes and was about to speak when suddenly a hand grabbed his other arm. A huge force came, and he turned around along with the force and successfully broke free from Chen Yong's mother's hand.
"Tang Shichu!" As soon as Zhou Zhan stood firm, he saw that it was Tang Shichu who helped him again. In order to help him stand firm, Tang Shichu put his other hand on his thin waist.
"Quite strong..." Tang Shichu muttered, and his hand couldn't help but pinch Zhou Zhan's waist. Zhou Zhan suddenly jumped up, and his handsome face turned red like a ripe apple.
"What are you doing?" Seeing that the "hostage" in her hands had been rescued, Chen Yong's mother wanted to pounce on Zhou Zhan again, but how could Tang Shichu give her this opportunity?
She withdrew her hand from Zhou Zhan's waist and quickly pressed it on Chen Yong's mother's shoulder. So no matter how she struggled, she could no longer take a step towards Zhou Zhan.
"Little girl, I advise you to stop meddling in other people's business and let me go!" Chen Yong's mother said angrily, glaring at Tang Shichu.
"I'll take care of this, Auntie. If I hadn't acted quickly to save Zhou Zhan that day, he would have really died under the wheels of your son's car. Your son would now be a murderer instead of an attempted murderer." Tang Shichu said to her lightly, "Also, don't even think about getting Zhou Zhan's letter of forgiveness. If he doesn't ask the judge to punish your son more severely, you should be happy. After all, your son is a scumbag, but Zhou Zhan is a rising star who can influence the future of the country."
"Who can help me call the security guard and take this lady away?" Tang Shichu asked the crowd.
"Someone has already gone to shout." someone answered.
"Thank you then." Tang Shichu smiled at the person who answered.
Naturally, Chen Yong's mother could not be easily persuaded by Tang Shichu. After hearing what Tang Shichu said, she became even angrier. After all, how could she be a good person if she could raise a son like Chen Yong who would kill someone he disliked?
However, no matter whether she was throwing a tantrum or cursing or crying and begging, Tang Shichu and Zhou Zhan remained indifferent. When the security guards arrived, they let them handle the matter.
Tang Shichu dragged Zhou Zhan along the school road, sighed and said, "I've saved you twice, why are you so unlucky? Next time if Chen Yong's mother comes again, just ask someone to find the security guard, don't argue with her."
"I know." Zhou Zhan replied in a low voice, "I didn't mean to argue with her this time, she was the one who wouldn't let me go."
"Oh yeah, I forgot you're still lame." Tang Shichu couldn't help laughing and asked him, "Next time you go out, do you want me to pick you up downstairs?"
Zhou Zhan's face darkened and he quickly refused: "No need."
"Hey, isn't that Zhou Zhan in front?" Suddenly a whisper came from behind. A male classmate looked at the voices of Zhou Zhan and Tang Shichu, snickered and said, "Zhou Zhan was just like a little wife, hiding behind that girl and obediently letting others stand up for him..."
"Hehe...that girl was the one who saved his life from Chen Yong's car...she should be rewarded with her life...haha..." another male classmate also echoed.
The two men were not too far away from Zhou Zhan and Tang Shichu, and they spoke quite quietly, so Zhou Zhan and Tang Shichu both heard it. Tang Shichu could not help but burst out laughing, while Zhou Zhan's face turned red again, and the veins on the back of his hand holding the crutch were bulging. He turned his head and glared fiercely at the two male classmates behind him.
Unexpectedly, the two male classmates not only did not panic when the person who was talking behind their backs discovered them, but they ran away with a smile, waved to Zhou Zhan and said, "Come on, Zhou Zhan! We support you in repaying your lifesaver with your own body!"
"Haha..." This time Tang Shichu really couldn't help himself and burst into laughter at the amusing laughter of these two funny classmates.
"What are you laughing at? Do you really want me to be devoted to you?" Although Zhou Zhan tried to remain calm on the surface, he still asked Tang Shichu angrily.
Tang Shichu quickly stopped smiling and shook his head: "No, no! How dare I defile Brother Zhou's pure body and mind..."
Zhou Zhan's face turned red again when he was choked by her words, making his originally tense handsome face less majestic.
Zhou Zhan moved the crutch in his hand and glared at her threateningly. Tang Shichu quickly put his hand to his mouth and made a zipper motion to indicate that he would not speak anymore.
The peace between the two was restored, but Zhou Zhan felt uneasy inside. Thinking back to when Tang Shichu stood up for him and confronted Chen Yong's mother, he strangely felt at ease and moved. But he was obviously the older one, so could it be that he was also affected by the suspension bridge effect?
