Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Clear Explanation_1 Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Clear Explanation_1 Jiang Dechun continued, “Granny Huo didn’t agree with something, and I don’t know how it started, but in the scuffle, someone pushed and caused Granny Huo to fall.”
“Later, you arrived.”
Nan Fei narrowed her eyes dangerously, she had personally witnessed Huo Jinlan attempting to push Granny Huo. So, there wasn’t a need to guess who pushed her, she could already confirm it.
“It must have been Huo Jinlan who did it intentionally.” She gritted her teeth as she said this. The image of Jing Tong she had encountered at the state guesthouse restaurant flashed across her mind. She cursed the mother and daughter pair for their villainy; they were birds of a feather indeed.
“Impossible? How could that be?” Jiang Dechun, a naïve and honest person, could never imagine doing such a thing, let alone believe someone else would.
Therefore, upon hearing Nan Fei’s accusation, he instinctively refuted it.
“Dad, just because you couldn’t do it doesn’t mean others can’t.” Nan Fei’s hands on her knees trembled slightly, out of lingering fear.
She didn’t dare to imagine, if she had not arrived in time today, what could have delayed Granny Huo’s treatment. Or if Granny Huo was further injured in the scuffle, what would have been the consequences.
In her past life, because of her younger brother’s death, her resentment towards Huo Beijiang deepened, resulting in a never-ending cold war.
She had never known happiness.
If, in this life, Granny Huo were to die from such an incident, she dared not imagine the consequences.
“Nan Fei, don’t be afraid.” Zhang Fengmei noticed her daughter’s unease and sat beside her, whispering reassurances, “Your Granny Huo absolutely won’t get hurt, don’t worry.”
“Yes! There won’t be any problems, I know it.” Nan Fei spoke with conviction, not knowing whether she was reassuring others or bolstering herself.
Zhang Fengmei agreed with Nan Fei’s view. Originally, they were simply shopping, but because of Huo Jinlan’s few words, a fight ensued. Even now, recalling it, she was still startled.
The girl had been all smiles, but in the scuffle, Granny Huo fell all of a sudden.
She could affirm that she absolutely did not touch Granny Huo at all, and her husband wouldn’t have either! So, who pushed Granny Huo?
The more Zhang Fengmei thought about it, the more frightened she became, shivering unconsciously.
“How…How could anyone be so wicked?”
“Yes! Some people, to achieve their goals, will stop at nothing, even commit crazy acts.” Nan Fei didn’t mention that Huo Jinlan liked Huo Bei.
Originally, her mom was against her marrying Huo Bei. If she knew that all these issues were caused by Huo Jinlan’s crush on Huo Bei, her opposition would be even stronger.
“Just now at the farmer’s market, you said that Huo Jinlan isn’t Principal Huo’s biological daughter? Is that true?”
“Yes!” Nan Fei nodded, “Huo Jinlan was adopted from Principal Huo’s classmate’s home.”
“Was it because her biological parents passed away, which is why she was adopted?” Zhang Fengmei’s soft heart began to sympathize with Huo Jinlan when she thought about this reason.
Who would willingly give their child to someone else to raise, unless they had become orphans themselves?
No matter how tough or exhausting, they were still one’s own children.
Nan Fei couldn’t help but scoff. She let out a sigh, originally not wanting to expose the dirty secrets to her family. However, her parents were too naïve and easily swayed. If they weren’t aware, they could easily be manipulated.
“Mom, you’re mistaken. Huo Jinlan’s biological parents are alive and well.”
