Chapter 184: Chapter 184: Do We Deserve to Be Inferior?
Twenty minutes later, Ding Lijuan and Han Bowwen were taken directly to the police station.
Surrounded by the austere interrogation rooms, the two were completely panicked.
"Officer, we were just fooling around just now..." Ding Lijuan said with an awkward smile.
"Fooling around? Let me tell you, your previous actions have already violated the law, and you’ve caused significant economic loss to the concerned party! Not only do you have to compensate, but you also face the threat of imprisonment! Do you really think you can get away with just saying you were fooling around?"
"Compensate? Go to jail?" Ding Lijuan was completely dumbfounded.
"I don’t want to go to jail, and I don’t have any money!" Ding Lijuan began to cry out of desperation.
Han Bowwen also had a face stricken with sorrow, as if mourning the dead.
If he had known this would be the outcome, he should have stopped Ding Lijuan in the first place.
Now look at the situation, they hadn’t got the money back, and they faced the prospect of imprisonment. Day after day, why did they always make deals that lost money!
Han Bowwen was fuming with anger, "Chen Xuan, as a junior, you actually want to send your elders to prison, it’s simply unforgivable! Jingting must have been blind to marry someone like you who doesn’t recognize his own family!"
Ding Lijuan was also furious, "Chen Xuan, I am your mother-in-law no matter what, and you actually want to send me to prison, you really have a cruel heart!"
Chen Xuan snorted coldly, "Am I cruel? When you made my mother so angry that she was hospitalized, did you ever think about how cruel you were?"
"When you pushed my mother and she almost bled, did you ever think about how cruel you were?"
Ding Lijuan’s face was defiant, "So what if I angered her, so what if I pushed her, don’t forget, it was the Han Family who paid for your mother’s surgery in the first place! Your mother’s life was saved by us, so what if I scolded her or pushed her a little!"
"And you, ever since you married into our family, everything you ate, wore, and used was paid for with our family’s money! You eat our food, drink our drinks, and now you even want to send us to prison, you’re just an ungrateful dog!"
"Your mother too! You and your mother are both ungrateful dogs! Dogs!"
"Shut your mouth!" Chen Xuan could no longer tolerate it and his hand swung toward Ding Lijuan’s face.
This scene was just witnessed by Han Jingting, who had just arrived, and her complexion immediately turned ashen.
"Chen Xuan, what are you doing!"
Chen Xuan stopped, in truth, he hadn’t really intended to follow through with the slap.
"Mom, are you alright?"
Han Jingting hurriedly rushed to Ding Lijuan’s side, and Ding Lijuan began to sob uncontrollably.
"Jingting, you saw it all, didn’t you? This is the good man you found. He dares to hit even your own mother, what else is he capable of doing!"
"Divorce him now! Wuu wuu wuu..."
Han Jingting looked at Chen Xuan with a cold expression, "Chen Xuan, apologize to my mom right away!"
Chen Xuan laughed bitterly in anger, "Do you even know what your parents did, yet you want me to apologize to them?"
Han Jingting’s face was stubborn, "No matter what they did wrong, wanting to hit someone is not right!"
Chen Xuan gave a rueful smile, "So, I’m wrong to hit them, but it’s right for them to hit my mom?"
Chen Xuan had had enough of Han Jingting’s arrogant nature!
"They hit your mother?" Han Jingting was stunned.
At that moment, a staff member handed over a tablet, "Miss, you better watch what your parents did before jumping to conclusions."
The tablet displayed surveillance footage from inside the noodles shop beneath the bridge.
When Han Jingting saw her parents making a scene, spreading rumors, and scattering paper money in the noodle shop, her eyebrows couldn’t help but furrow.
And when it came to the scene where Xuu Suzhen was pushed aside by her own mother, almost suffering a bloody injury, Han Jingting felt another wave of anxiety.
She finally understood why Chen Xuan was so furious.
"I’m sorry, I... I didn’t know..." Han Jingting felt somewhat guilty.
Chen Xuan’s face remained cold, "Forget it, in your eyes, we are always the ones who should endure mistreatment, aren’t we?"
Han Jingting suddenly became displeased, "Chen Xuan, what do you mean by that?"
Chen Xuan helplessly shook his head.
At the end of the day, Han Jingting, like Ding Lijuan, had her own sense of superiority.
In their view, their act of apologizing was already a great favor unto themselves. If you dared say anything else, it was a sort of offense to them!
Could it be that because we come from humble origins, we should always be beneath you Han Family folks?
Chen Xuan couldn’t be bothered to explain any further and said to Ding Lijuan and Han Bowwen, "For Jingting’s sake, I can refund the money to you and not pursue your responsibility. However, starting from tomorrow, you need to publicly apologize in front of the noodle shop for three consecutive days to compensate for the shop’s losses!"
"And also, don’t ever come to cause trouble at my shop again, otherwise, I will not be polite with you anymore!"
Having said that, Chen Xuan left directly.
When Han Jingting, with Ding Lijuan and the others, walked out of the police station, they happened to see Chen Xuan and a woman boarding a car together; it was Zheng Qingxue.
Han Jingting’s heart turned icy cold in an instant.
The moment something went wrong in Chen Xuan’s family, this Zheng Qingxue had rushed over. The relationship between these two was indeed very close!
The keen-eyed Ding Lijuan also caught this scene and immediately started exclaiming loudly.
"Is that Chen Xuan? Who is that woman with him, why are they so close!"
"Jingting, look quickly, does Chen Xuan have someone else on the side!"
"What does it matter to me whether he’s with someone else!"
Han Jingting boarded the car expressionlessly.
Ding Lijuan and Han Bowwen looked at each other, bewildered. What exactly was going on between their daughter and that good-for-nothing?
In the following three days, Ding Lijuan and Han Bowwen did indeed apologize at the entrance of the noodle shop as Chen Xuan had demanded, totally obedient.
Having no other choice, since refusing to apologize would result in prison and not getting the money, they didn’t dare to defy.
With Ding Lijuan and Han Bowwen’s apologies and clarifications, the noodle shop’s business finally began to pick up again, and even showed signs of becoming better and better.
Seeing the shop bustling again and his mother becoming cheerful, Chen Xuan was finally relieved.
That night, as Chen Xuan was getting ready to rest, he suddenly received a call from Zhao Luna.
"Hello, what’s up?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to ask when exactly Uncle is going to cheat, so I can be considered," Zhao Luna teased deliberately.
Chen Xuan was speechless. This girl always joked with him like this.
"If you don’t have anything serious to talk about, I’m hanging up," he said.
Chen Xuan pretended he was about to hang up the call.
Zhao Luna quickly interjected, "Wait, don’t hang up, I do have something serious!"
"Speak."
On the other end of the phone, Zhao Luna pouted, her young and beautiful face filled with displeasure.
"So, there’s going to be an antique appraisal contest in Qiantang tomorrow, and I was wondering if you could come with me?"
"An antique appraisal contest?" Chen Xuan hadn’t expected such a competition to exist.
