These people have been ruled out, so the only one left is Zhao Xihua.
If she guessed correctly, it was Zhao Xihua who told Lin Nuo about this, and Lin Nuo told Zheng Ruyue about this, and then it was brought to the Xiao family.
Presumably, when these things were being told, they were exaggerated, so that when it came to Xiao's father, it became that her second brother had been in jail.
Before Xiao's father could say anything, Zheng Ruyue took over and said, "I said it. This matter can be big or small. You and Yanjun are together. The Xiao family has the right to know."
After saying that, she raised her chin with a very smug expression, obviously provoking Lin Xiaoxiao.
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled faintly, "Brother Xiao knows about this matter."
"Yan Jun knows?"
Zheng Rumeng and Zheng Ruyue were both stunned.
Seeing the expressions of the two, the smile in Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes became even more intense. She thought that Zheng Ruyue was in a hurry to bring the matter to Xiao's father and didn't make things clear at all.
This was going to be a good show to watch. She was waiting to see how the two men would try to do it to her but couldn't.
Zheng Ruyue quickly reacted and said, "Yanjun actually hid this from us with you? Has this kid been blinded by love?"
She seemed to have completely immersed herself in the role of Xiao Yanjun's aunt, pretending to be concerned about the Xiao family's reputation, and continued: "Yanjun is now a big shot. Who doesn't know him in Licheng? And Mr. Xiao, if this matter were to be known by someone with ulterior motives and reported in the newspapers, where would the Xiao family put their reputation?"
"Yanjun is so confused. When looking for a girlfriend, you should at least find one with a clean background, not just one from an equal social status! Ruyue, don't you and your wife agree?"
Zheng Rumeng didn't say anything. She looked at Father Xiao and called out, "Brother Xiao..."
Father Xiao didn't say anything. He looked at Lin Xiaoxiao in silence for a while and said, "Xiaoxiao, what exactly happened? Can you tell me?"
Xiao Yanjun is his son. Although he, as a father, spends too little time with his child, he also knows Xiao Yanjun's character. This matter may not be as simple as it seems.
Lin Xiaoxiao is the girl that Xiao Yanjun likes. Xiao's father knows very well that if he misunderstands Lin Xiaoxiao again because he fails to investigate the matter clearly, it will easily worsen the relationship between him and Xiao Yanjun.
So he was not bewitched by Zheng Ruyue's words. He had his own judgment. Now that Lin Xiaoxiao was here, he wanted to hear it from Lin Xiaoxiao herself.
"Sure." Lin Xiaoxiao nodded, and then told the whole story of Lin Rui being mistakenly arrested. "...That's how it is. My second brother can only be considered a half-witness at best."
Lin Xiaoxiao was not trying to excuse him, it was just that this matter really had little to do with Lin Rui.
"How is that possible?"
After hearing what Lin Xiaoxiao said, Zheng Ruyue lost her composure. She was the one who spread the news. If this was true, didn't she make up rumors without finding out the truth?
She can't bear this responsibility.
Father Xiao and Old Man Xiao didn't like her in the first place. If this happened again, how would she come to the Xiao family in the future?
"Right!" Zheng Rumeng also questioned, "If that's what you said, why did others spread it like that?"
Having finally found such a good opportunity, Zheng Rumeng was unwilling to let Lin Xiaoxiao slip away like this.
But Zheng Rumeng is also very smart. She never speaks in a final way and always likes to leave herself a way out.
