"Zhilan, there’s trouble! Don’t go back to your dorm right now!" Jiang Biyun’s distressed eyebrows were almost knitting together, "Liu Jiang’s mother is at our dorm building hollering at you like a madwoman."
"What’s up?" He Zhilan was taken aback, "Liu Jiang’s mother? I’ve never even met her."
"Apparently, you had someone beat up Liu Jiang, and now he’s lying in the hospital. His mother is furious and wants you to pay. She also cursed you with awful language, saying you’re unsavory and that’s why your husband left you. Something about Liu Jiang not minding your messiness and pursuing you, and you not knowing any better and playing games with Liu Jiang. She also mentioned that the Liu Family had originally wanted to kindly accept you, a woman on her second marriage, as their daughter-in-law, but you were ungrateful; apparently, the Liu Family no longer wants to take in any ’junk’."
Although these things sounded very hurtful and were quite infuriating, without getting clarification, it’s hard for everyone to understand what exactly is going on.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chan gave a yawn in the driver’s seat and touched his nose.
"Zhilan ah, this is my fault! My fault!" Lin Chan lifted his hand up, with a face full of guilt, "I’m the one who had Liu Jiang beaten up!"
"Why? Did he piss you off or something?" He Zhilan wasn’t angry, just puzzled.
"Remember that day I drove you back to school? I warned Liu Jiang to stop pursuing you, but the jerk kept asking around about you. He even happened to run into me, I was pissed off. This toad still wanted to eat swan meat? So Chen Yun and I gathered a few goons and beat him up at a dump on the west side of town!"
Lin Chan originally just wanted to knock some sense into Liu Jiang. He didn’t expect Liu Jiang’s mother to be such an unreasonable and shameless woman.
Thinking about it, Lin Chan felt that he had been careless. If the Liu Family could use a life-saving favor to blackmail the Chen Family into marrying off their daughter, it showed that no one in the Chen Family was decent. He should have been more ruthless in the first place, so ruthless that the Liu Family wouldn’t even have the courage to fight back.
"Little sis, you and your classmate go to the classroom or somewhere else to kill some time. I’ll go handle this shrew! When I step in, I guarantee she won’t dare to make a scene again!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Chan started the car and zoomed off with a press on the accelerator.
"Zhilan, let’s go to the library and stay quiet for a while." Jiang Biyun looked at He Zhilan with concern. Right now, He Zhilan’s life was a series of dramas. People in the school were still gossiping about her divorce, and now this. Anyone in He Zhilan’s shoes would be upset.
"Isn’t Lin Chan being a bit unreliable?" Chen Xiting muttered quietly.
He Zhilan just laughed. It was typical of Lin Chan to act impulsively. Disliking Liu Jiang and hospitalizing him was pretty normal behavior for Lin Chan. He was only kind to her and his buddies, and he lived up to his reputation as a notorious, bad boy from the capital.
"We should sneak over there to check it out, as long as we don’t get caught." He Zhilan shook her head and pointed in the direction Lin Chan had left in. She was worried that Lin Chan’s temper might lead him to beat up Liu Jiang’s mother as well.
He Zhilan and the two others didn’t see how Lin Chan had dealt with Liu Jiang’s mother. By the time they reached the dormitory, they saw a disgruntled woman passing by them. If Jiang Biyun hadn’t mentioned that she was Liu Jiang’s mother, He Zhilan would never have known.
