Chapter 179: Be a troublemaker who is not defined by others
"Jiang Tunan? You're not dead?"
Leng Qingyan noticed Jiang Tunan first. She had heard that Jiang Tunan seemed to be buried in the cave of the Great Yin people. Many people had searched for her body for several days but could not find it. Leng Qingyan was happy for several days because of this.
“This guy really can’t talk.”
Xiao Mingxu felt uncomfortable when he heard Leng Qingyan's tone, as if Jiang Tunan should not come back.
"Miss Leng doesn't want me to come back?"
"No, I just sigh that Miss Jiang is so lucky and has a good life."
Meng Yao was too lazy to listen to the two people's polite words and went straight forward to ask,
"Leng Qingyan, did you push someone?"
Leng Qingyan had an expression of surprise on her face, as if she found it very unbelievable.
"I pushed people? I was just having dinner with Sister Ruxuan in the room upstairs. How could I have the time to come out and push people? Don't you think so, Sister Ruxuan?"
Leng Qingyan put on a perfect smile and slowly turned her head to look at Ye Ruxuan. At this moment, Ye Ruzhen was also staring at Ye Ruxuan.
"I...I don't know."
When Ye Ruxuan saw that Ye Ruzhen and Su Lanlan were both injured, and Meng Yao looked like he was going to blame her, she was already frightened out of her wits.
"You don't know? You can't even answer the question of whether you were in the room with Leng Qingyan just now?"
Su Lanlan stepped forward and asked sternly. At this moment, she gradually reacted. It seemed that there was indeed a hidden story behind Ye Ruzhen falling down the stairs, and she was just carried away by her emotions.
"What are you doing? Sister Ruxuan is timid to begin with. If you scare her like this, she won't be able to answer any questions you ask her."
Leng Qingyan stood in front of Ye Ruxuan, looking very anxious, as if she was really worried about Ye Ruxuan.
"Ms. Jiang, why do you want to slander me for no reason?"
Jiang Tunan:?
Why did it involve me again?
Seeing that Jiang Tunan didn't say anything, Su Xiaoxiao also started to criticize him.
"Ms. Jiang, I know you are eager to protect your friend, but you can't slander Miss Leng just because of this."
Su Lanlan remained silent. She felt that Jiang Tunan might not be lying, as she thought his sister was used to saying nice things.
"Jiang Tunan, what's wrong with you?"
Meng Yao also looked at Jiang Tunan suspiciously. Although she didn't care about the truth of the matter at all, she also didn't like someone playing tricks in front of her.
"No, Leng Qingyan, you don't think that in such a big restaurant, no one saw you pushing someone, right?"
There are quite a few waiters in Yuzhulou. According to what Ye Ruzhen said, they had just had an argument at the stairs, so it is impossible that no one saw it.
"That's right. We can find out whether Miss Leng is lying by calling the waiter in this restaurant and asking him."
Xiao Mingxu stood behind Jiang Tunan with his hands on his hips, determined to support her.
Leng Qingyan was flustered for a moment, then calmed down and said,
"If you want to accuse someone of something, you can always find a pretext. Miss Jiang has the support of the young masters of the Xiao family. I have no way of defending myself."
When Su Xiaoxiao heard this, she felt that Jiang Tunan was bullying others by taking advantage of his power.
"Miss Jiang, don't go too far. If you call all the staff in the building to question them, this matter will definitely become a hot topic. Do you know that gossip can melt gold? Even if Miss Leng is innocent, her reputation will be ruined after this incident!"
"You said Leng Qingyan's reputation was important, so when you accused me just now without any evidence, why didn't you say that you were destroying my reputation for no reason? Besides, what I said was the truth."
It was as if Su Xiaoxiao was deliberately looking for trouble, and her words were incoherent.
"Ms. Jiang, I don't know why you misunderstood me, but I really just think that you are making things difficult for Miss Leng. Besides, Master Leng is Miss Leng's grandfather. We all know what kind of person Master Leng is, so Miss Leng would never do such a thing."
Jiang Tunan looked distracted, made a heart shape with one hand and said,
"Ah, yes, yes, whatever you say is right, and whatever I do is wrong. I think the adults in the Dali Temple can all find better jobs. There's no need to investigate and solve cases in the future. Just sit there and criticize whoever you dislike."
"I don't.."
"You want to say you don't have it again? You were the one who just said I was slandering people with empty words, and now I'm looking for evidence to say that you are also the one who destroyed other people's reputations. I say, big (angry voice) sister, do you want to see what you are talking about? To be honest, your little thoughts are all written on your face, don't pretend with me.
Su Xiaoxiao, can you please be quiet for a while? I beg you to stop emitting your useless halo. If you really have nothing to do, just go get a broom and sweep the floor. At least people will praise you for being hardworking and capable.
Su Lanlan used her sleeves to cover her hands which were trembling slightly due to excitement. Over the years, few people had directly scolded Su Xiaoxiao in front of her. Jiang Tunan really enjoyed scolding her!
Su Xiaoxiao felt wronged instantly, a few tears fell from her eyes, and she looked at Baili Hong pitifully.
"Cousin, I'm not..."
Baili Hong became furious when he saw his beloved little cousin crying so sadly.
"Miss Jiang is really good at talking. I'm afraid you can even turn black into white."
"you..."
Jiang Tunan opened his mouth but immediately stopped himself. No, no, this is a prince, you can't scold him. If you scold him, you will lose your head.
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness~"
Jiang Tunan spoke in a hoarse voice at first, then bowed artificially, adhering to the principle of making Baili Hong disgusted even if he couldn't kill him.
"I didn't praise you, Miss Jiang, don't be so self-indulgent!"
Then what are you talking about!
Jiang Tunan rolled his eyes in a corner where Baili Hong couldn't see him, but heard Baili Hong say,
"Okay, I understand what happened today. Miss Meng and Miss Jiang apologize to Xiao Xiao, and let's forget about it."
Su Lanlan:?
Ye Ruzhen:?
Leng Qingyan: Yo~
Meng Yao & Jiang Tunan: What a big word.
"No, cousin, I'm fine. Miss Jiang should apologize to Miss Leng."
After hearing what Su Xiaoxiao said, Leng Qingyan could hardly suppress the smile on her face, with a hint of pride in her eyes and eyebrows.
"Actually, Miss Jiang, you don't have to force it."
"I have never heard of someone trying to stop a fight apologizing to the onlookers."
Xiao Mingrui walked out of the crowd and protected Jiang Tunan behind him.
"Everything my cousin said made sense, why should she apologize?"
"That's it."
Xiao Mingxu and Xiao Mingrui stood side by side in front of Jiang Tunan.
"The ladies present here are either formal students of the girls' school or are preparing to enroll. I remember His Majesty once said that all students registered in the girls' school enjoy special protection rights. This is a personal rule of His Majesty, and no one can violate it."
Xiao Mingrui glanced at Xiao Mingxu with appreciation. He didn't expect that Xiao Mingxu would react so quickly at this time. So he continued with what Xiao Mingxu said.
"That is to say, Your Highness the First Prince cannot casually pin the blame on my cousin today. If you want to convict her, you must produce sufficient evidence. Otherwise, you will be disobeying the Emperor's order."
"I am the prince!"
Baili Hong was a little annoyed. Did these people want him to lose face in front of his little cousin?
"Then I wonder if I, as a prince, can persuade His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to stay?"
Qi Guanming walked to the center with steady steps and without haste.
Qi Guanming: The protagonist always appears last!
"My mother founded the Women's School. I know better than anyone how much effort she put into it. So today I will defend the respect that every student of the Women's School deserves."
While Xiao Mingrui and the others were talking to the eldest prince, Jiang Tunan leisurely moved to the side of Meng Yao and said to the air beside him,
"Alas, this Second Miss Su, I heard before that she sent a lot of gifts to Cousin Mingli, but I didn't expect that she would come to Yuzhu Tower today. It's a pity that Cousin Mingli is not here today, so she took out her anger on me."
Meng Yao immediately grasped the key point of Jiang Tunan's words.
"You said Su Xiaoxiao sent something to Mr. Xiao Er?"
Jiang Tunan covered his mouth in panic, as if he didn't notice Meng Yao was right next to him.
"That's what you said!"
Jiang Tunan hesitated, as if trying to recall.
"I heard from the servants in the mansion that one day, Cousin Mingli caught a fresh fish, which was given to him by Miss Su II... and Cousin Mingli seemed to be enjoying the meal very much... But I just heard it, after all, I am not familiar with Cousin Mingli... Miss Meng, don't think too much..."
Jiang Tunan: As expected, none of the gossip I hear is in vain!
She felt speechless at the time. What girl would give a live fish as a gift? Su Xiaoxiao probably wanted Xiao Mingli to take good care of him, but she didn't expect that the housekeeper Uncle Zhao would stew him directly. If Su Xiaoxiao knew about this, she would be so angry that she would die.
Meng Yao stepped forward aggressively, pointing ahead and shouting,
"Su Xiaoxiao!"
Jiang Tunan stepped down quietly. A famous person once said that if your opponent does not listen to reason and does not follow the rules, then be an undefined troublemaker and make life difficult for everyone.
