Aunt Wang sneered at this and said, "You two are so affectionate, and my Tian Sheng is still lying in there! What's the point of molestation? My son is a real man, but he still likes a slut like you!"
Jun Haoyue narrowed his eyes dangerously: "Whether it was indecent or not, your son knows it clearly."
Seeing more and more people outside, Aunt Wang shouted even louder, "God damn it Xu Xingchen! I think you're just trying to turn the tables. It's clearly you who seduced my son!"
Seeing that Aunt Wang's curses were getting more and more unpleasant and the discussions of the crowd behind her were getting louder and louder, Aunt Pang couldn't stand it anymore.
"What are you arguing about?! I saw everything. I was working in the fields at the time! It was Tian Sheng from the Wang family who forced Miss Xu under him, and that's when Jun Xiucai came out!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd behind fell silent.
Aunt Wang started to argue again: "Who knows if you're biased towards this little bitch! There's no evidence, anyone would say that!"
Auntie Fat was furious and retorted, "Sister Xu lives in the west of the village, and I live in the east. Even if I want to favor Sister Xu, I have to have a real relationship with her, right?!"
"Do I have to invite my old man?"
When Aunt Wang heard that the village chief was going to be invited, her arrogance diminished a lot.
Xu Xingchen exposed his hands, revealing the dirt and scratches on them, looking very pitiful. Xu Xingchen's skin was already tender, and even a simple rub would leave a red mark. The violent struggle just now had left obvious scratches.
Jun Haoyue rushed forward and anxiously checked Xu Xingchen's hand.
A sharp glare pierced Aunt Wang. Aunt Wang felt a chill on her back and was speechless.
"Let Zhang Tiansheng wake up and we will know everything." A hint of viciousness flashed in Jun Haoyue's eyes.
"That's right!" The fat aunt agreed casually.
Jun Haoyue strode into the room, followed closely by Xu Xingchen. As they entered, they both saw the quilt move unnaturally before returning to its normal state.
Xu Xingchen and Jun Haoyue sneered almost at the same time.
There was a bucket of water in the room. Xu Xingchen easily took the water, washed his hands, picked up the dirty water, and poured it directly on the quilt.
Zhang Tiansheng stood up and cursed, "Xu Xingchen, are you sick?!"
"Go on sleeping. Don't you like sleeping? Go on sleeping."
"Son!" Aunt Wang saw all this and cried out in a terrific voice. Xu Xingchen was almost deafened by the crying and started to pick his ears.
Aunt Wang leaned on Zhang Tiansheng, crying with tears and snot.
"My son! You lost your father when you were little. I raised you with so much hardship, and now you are being bullied by a widow! My son, my poor son!"
Xu Xingchen watched her acting with cold eyes: "Why don't you go out and cry to the village chief? Your son is pretending to be asleep because he doesn't dare to confront us, right?"
"Yes!" Aunt Wang's eyes were red with tears and she glared at him angrily.
"My son is a man of integrity. Why wouldn't he dare to confront you? Son, tell me the truth. I'll support you!"
Zhang Tiansheng felt a little guilty. He had just woken up and didn't know what had just happened.
Xu Xingchen pulled Aunt Fatty in and questioned Zhang Tiansheng, "Tell me yourself, was it you who rushed over first and then my brother hit you, or did my brother hit you for no reason? Aunt Fatty is here and saw everything. Think it over before you speak."
Auntie Pang was the type to greet everyone she met, so when Zhang Tiansheng arrived at the field, she naturally greeted him as well. Zhang Tiansheng felt even more insecure now.
"I...I rushed over first, and then your brother hit me..."
Aunt Wang looked at her son in disbelief. Aunt Fatty seized the opportunity and immediately shouted outside, "It was Zhang Tiansheng who molested the girl first! He admitted it himself!"
Shocking reversal!
The people outside started talking again. Aunt Wang, annoyed, hit her son a few times. "You good-for-nothing! No wonder you're still unmarried after 30! Who wants to live with a loser like you?"
This was the truth. Zhang Tiansheng had the will but not the courage. If Jun Haoyue hadn't looked like a weak scholar, he wouldn't have pounced on him directly.
Auntie Pang felt sorry for Auntie Wang's distraught look and said, "Auntie, why do you always have to pick on this little girl? Even if she offends you often, it's nothing! We've all lived for decades, it's just a matter of a few grains of millet. We can just plant them next year!"
Aunt Pang also thought that it was because Aunt Wang had lost some wheat before that she was targeting Xu Xingchen.
Aunt Wang was still very emotional and said, "Who would want to compete with this bitch! If it weren't for this loser, I..."
Aunt Fat sat down and started chatting with Aunt Wang. Aunt Wang didn't have the energy to pay attention to Xu Xingchen and the others. Xu Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief, quickly pulled Jun Haoyue and sneaked out, closing the door.
Jun Haoyue's face was as black as ink.
Even Xu Xingchen noticed the change this time. Xu Xingchen was a little embarrassed and said, "I...you..."
Jun Haoyue wanted to say something but stopped himself many times, and he was not as soft-hearted as before.
Xu Xingchen held it in for a long time, and finally said, "Let's go home."
Jun Haoyue didn't say much at this time and nodded.
The two returned home in silence.
Xu Xingchen closed the door and said with difficulty, looking very conflicted: "I was wrong. Although I don't know where I was wrong."
Jun Haoyue was facing the light, his shadow falling on Xu Xingchen. His tall body almost surrounded Xu Xingchen, and Xu Xingchen could almost feel the warmth from Jun Haoyue's muscles on his arms.
They were too close, Xu Xingchen thought.
This sentence successfully made Jun Haoyue laugh: "Yes, you are right. Xingchen, I am not angry with you, I am angry with myself for not protecting you in time."
Jun Haoyue's expression returned to its previous gloomy state: "If I were a little faster, that beast wouldn't be able to touch you."
Xu Xingchen looked at Jun Haoyue with some embarrassment. This was the first time Jun Haoyue had cursed, and it was because of this.
Is it because I didn’t protect myself?
Xu Xingchen lowered his head, unable to analyze the meaning of this sentence.
Human emotions are not as clear as statistics. Often, Xu Xingchen, immersed in cold, objective data for so long, has gradually developed a certain insensitivity. It's not blinding, but it's enough to protect himself.
Maybe he's just kind-hearted.
Xu Xingchen comforted herself in this way in her heart, and her mood gradually calmed down. She looked into Jun Haoyue's eyes sincerely and said, "No, I want to thank you for today."
After saying this, Xu Xingchen didn't feel any pressure at all, but rather a sense of relief. Jun Haoyue had just been amused by Xu Xingchen, and the atmosphere had eased a bit. Then, he naturally took Xu Xingchen's hand and placed it on the table.
