Chapter 2420: Innocence Tainted

“Where’s Qian’e? I bought some clothes and jewelry for her. She’s usually fond of all these things so it’ll probably make her feel better,” Xia He looked at Qiao Mei and whispered.

“She has already gone off to work early in the morning,” Qiao Mei said.

“What? She has gone off to work? I thought she would feel down for a few days. It looks like I’ve underestimated her,” Xia He said happily as she put down the things she brought.

“I think it’s all just a facade. Qian’e will feel down once she has some free time. She just does not want other people to know,” Qiao Mei said.

“So what do we do about this matter? Are we just going to let it go? We’re not going to teach that family a lesson?” Xia He said angrily.

“Of course not, but we still have to wait for a while and see what Qian’e thinks. Otherwise, she might be overwhelmed when the matter blows up,” Qiao Mei said.

Xia He looked at the things on the floor and said, “In that case, accompany me to the factory to visit her. I bought her so many things that she can’t bear to buy for herself. She’ll definitely be happy to see these things.”

Qiao Mei nodded. She also went to her wardrobe to take out a few new dresses. She had originally planned to give these clothes to Qian’e in the future, but they had come in handy now.

The two of them got into the car and soon arrived at the factory entrance. This time round, Qiao Mei had brought her access card. Before she could even take it out though, the security guard immediately said, “Director! You have to go in and take a look now! There’s a fight inside! I couldn’t manage to block out the troublemakers!”

The security guard immediately opened the main gate and Qiao Mei stepped on the accelerator, heading straight to the workshop building. Just as the security guard had said, it was already a huge mess inside.

“Beat them up! Beat them as hard as you can! If they die, it’s on me! None of you will be in trouble!” Qian’e pointed at a group of people in the crowd and shouted hysterically.

This was the first time Qiao Mei and Xia He had seen Qian’e in such a state. Who did she see?

It was a big group of people who were currently getting beaten up. There were both men and women, old and young, probably slightly more than 10 people. Even as they were getting beaten up, someone kept shouting, “You’re really a whore! Everyone, come and take a look! Qian’e is a nasty piece of work! She slept with my son and refuses to admit it! My son is still so young! How can my son face the world in the future!”

Hearing this, Qiao Mei and Xia He knew who these people were. They were Huang Xuan’s family members.

In this era, they had only heard of women asking men to take responsibility after the men took advantage of them. They had never heard of a man asking a woman to take responsibility!

What an odd situation.

“Nonsense! What evidence do you have to prove that I slept with your son! With your son’s looks! Who will hanker for him! You should take a long hard look in the mirror!” Qian’e said agitatedly.

Zhao Zhi immediately took out a bra from her bag, the bright red color immediately drawing everyone’s attention. She held up the bra and shouted, “Look! This belongs to the whore! You left your underwear at my house! Yet you still refuse to admit it!”

Everyone stopped what they were doing and the entire workshop fell silent. No one dared to make a sound.

It was not impossible that Huang Xuan and Qian’e had slept together. After all, everyone had seen how hard Huang Xuan worked to woo Qian’e during the past two months.

However, Huang Xuan was not really a young man anymore. He had been married before and had fathered children. These two people had both been married before, so how did the situation end up like this?

Everyone knew that Huang Xuan eyed Qian’e only for her money. Qian’e was really quite unlucky to have attracted the attention of this man.

“You can’t just simply pull out a random piece of clothing and say that it’s mine. Where’s your proof? If you can’t prove it today, I’ll go to the police station to report you!” Qian’e said.

“It’s true that I can’t prove it, but I can prove that you came into my house with my son that day! I saw you! And I’m not the only one who saw you! All the neighbors saw you!” Zhao Zhi said smugly as she sat on the floor.

Qian’e clenched her fists in anger. Indeed, the Huang family’s neighbors had seen her enter the Huang family’s house and there was no way to refute that fact. By now, Da Zhuang was so angry that he almost went forward to beat Huang Xuan up again.

Zhao Zhi pointed at Da Zhuang and said, “This is the man! This man beat up my son! He disfigured my son! That day, all my neighbors saw it! The third wheel in the relationship even dares to come to our house to cause trouble! My son has such a hard life! Such a hard life!”

Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Qiao Mei immediately pushed her way through the crowd and walked to the centre. “This old lady is really quite unreasonable. Even if you want to get a daughter-in-law, you have to propose marriage in a formal manner. How can you use such despicable methods? Your entire family must be too hard up for money!”

Zhao Zhi had wanted to refute Qiao Mei, but she was stunned when she turned and saw Qiao Mei’s face. Old Madam Qian had emphasized to her again and again that Qiao Mei was a very difficult person to deal with and that if she bumped into Qiao Mei, she must quickly think of a way to leave and not get into an argument with Qiao Mei.
