Meng Chaojun also felt very frustrated and glared fiercely at Meng Xinian.
How many troubles had the kid caused him throughout his life?
Even the unwell Duan Qingqing had to rush over from home to cover for him, and who knew the kid would still completely disregard Duan Qingqing’s feelings, just like he always had!
And this time, who knew how much money Fong Jianye’s hospital stay would cost? Did they think their family was running a gold and silver mine?
A useless guy! Only good at causing trouble for the family!
Father Fong said with a heavy face, "If our Jianye doesn’t wake up, I’ll make sure Meng Xinian joins him in death!"
Upon hearing these words, Gao Wei shuddered with a start and looked up to meet Meng Xinian’s cold and dark eyes. His heart skipped a beat and he quickly shifted his gaze away.
Without showing any emotion, Gao’s Father stepped aside, placing Gao Wei behind himself.
Meng Xinian said coldly, "Make me join him in death? Fong Jianye is not worthy. It was Gao Wei who hit him, not me. I’m only saying this once."
Just as Gao Wei was about to retort, Gao’s Father’s voice already came through, "Buddy Meng, everyone knows exactly what kind of person you are, and similarly, everyone is clear about the relationship between Jianye and our Wei. Do you really think you can shift the blame and anyone would believe you?"
Clearly, the Fong Family didn’t believe it either.
Gao Wei and Fong Jianye had always been close as brothers, but Meng Xinian had been known all over the military compound for picking fights with kids, so who would they believe?
"Gao Wei had nunchucks and tried to ambush me but hit Fong Jianye by mistake. After Fong Jianye fell, Gao Wei ran away. I was the one who brought him to the hospital. If Fong Jianye dies, that’s on Gao Wei. If Fong Jianye survives, you should thank me," Meng Xinian said coldly as he leaned against the wall. "It’s that simple. If you have brains, you can understand this. Of course, if you’re all pig-brained, I can’t help it."
Duan Qingqing quietly tugged at Meng Chaojun’s sleeve and whispered, "Xinian’s words are going to offend both the Fong Family and Gao Family completely. Look at his tone and attitude."
Meng Chaojun was instantly furious and shouted at Meng Xinian, "Shut up! Did they attack you for no reason? Why don’t they trouble others but only you?"
Although Meng Xinian had felt numb from this kind of accusation over the years, he still felt as if ice shards had been stuffed into his heart upon hearing Meng Chaojun’s familiar criticism.
Yeah, why don’t they trouble others? Just him?
Even when he was younger, Gao Wei and Fong Jianye would come up to him with insults they had heard from adults, mocking him about how shortly after his mother died, his father took up with a young girl. They taunted that once the girl became his stepmother and had a younger brother for him, he’d be left a parentless bastard.
How could he not beat them after hearing such words?
Eventually, when people from the Fong Family and Gao Family came knocking, Meng Chaojun chastised him just the same.
Perhaps some did, but they were unwilling to speak up for him. He had long since stopped caring.
Old Meng was furious too, not missing the slight gestures his daughter-in-law made towards his son.
Such things had happened too many times, perhaps too many to count. He wasn’t sure if he had become numb or utterly hopeless. How could he have a son who was so bewitched by women?
He believed Meng Xinian, but with Fong Jianye still unconscious, what could he say? He felt he couldn’t afford to lose face by scolding his son in front of others.
