Chapter 82 of the book: The arrogant actress dreams of peach blossoms every night

Thinking of this, Chen Xuemei's expression grew serious. "You said this was a conflict between children, but after the police investigation, how could they determine it was intentional injury? If you truly feel wronged, you can report it to your superiors!"

Sun Haiyan's expression turned grim. Before Chen Xuemei could finish her words, she retorted, "But Xiao Yang's injuries aren't serious. He just needs to rest well. But Sun Zhen will have to spend 10 years in prison. 10 years! He'll be 40 when he gets out. Most of his life will be ruined!"

Chen Xuemei laughed instead of getting angry. "You're a lucky educated person. A murderer who doesn't kill someone isn't innocent; that's called attempted murder. Yangyang wasn't seriously injured because he was prepared. After all, there were three people beating him up. If there had been even the slightest mistake, he wouldn't just have lost a hand, he might even have been in jeopardy! Have you ever thought about what would happen to his life then?"

Sun Haiyan's face turned pale and she stammered, "How...is this possible? Sun Zhen was just trying to scare him, he wasn't really going to do anything to him!"

Chen Xuemei's expression turned extremely grim. She said coldly, "Then you should find out who the two people who weren't arrested were. What were their original plans? We didn't pursue this matter further because we didn't want to escalate the conflict. I can't believe you're still insisting on it. Have you ever considered that if the other two people who assaulted him were related to your eldest brother, would he still be able to hold on to his position as deputy director of the East City Branch?"

Although Chen Xuemei's voice was quiet, it resonated like thunder in Sun Haiyan's ears. Her face turned pale and purple, clearly realizing the horror of the situation.

You know, his eldest brother is already the top of the pyramid of their Sun family. If this case really affects his future, then the entire Sun family will be finished.

After all, which family that could survive in the capital had not offended others? Once they declined, how could their enemies miss the opportunity to strike down the fallen?

At this moment, Sun Haiyan was really scared.

However, she did not blame her son or nephew for this incident. Instead, she felt that Chen Xuemei was really unkind - I am already so miserable, why don't you give me a hand?

His eyes became increasingly angry. "Xiaomei, just to vent your anger on a country bumpkin, have you even disregarded our decades-long friendship?"

Chen Xuemei's attitude remained firm: "If you still cared about this, you wouldn't have come here today, let alone made such an embarrassing request!"

Sun Haiyan sneered and said, "If something happened to your nephew or your daughter, would you sit back and do nothing?"

"First, I'm confident my daughter would never do such a thing. Second, if they did, I wouldn't need anyone else to take them to the police station and sentence them accordingly. I wouldn't even have the nerve to go to the victim's family and ask them to drop the case."

It must be said that Chen Xuemei's words were indeed quite hurtful. But Sun Haiyan had no way to refute them. After all, her two daughters were so well-behaved. However, what really made him difficult to understand was that Chen Xuemei actually didn't give Xiao Yang, an outsider, any face at all in order to protect her!

With a cold snort, she said sarcastically, "Okay, then you can continue to defend him. Haven't you noticed that he's been very close to Caiyu while asking Caiwei to stand up for him? No matter who he hooks up with, he can legitimately become your son-in-law. If he climbs up the social ladder in your family, then you can expect unrest in your home."

"If your two daughters fall in love with the same man, how will you show off then? It's possible that even the future of your family's Lao Lin will be affected. And... this is just the beginning. Once you become a real family, you can expect to be sucked dry by Xiao Yang's poor relatives!"

If Sun Haiyan had said this before, Chen Xuemei might have really taken it to heart.

But he already knew today that Caiwei didn't seem to have any special feelings for Xiao Yang, so he didn't take Sun Haiyan's words to heart: "Don't worry about these, you should take care of Wang Hao first. This time, Sun Zhen took the blame for him, but next time, it may not be the same!"

Sun Haiyan's voice suddenly stopped, and her face turned extremely ugly. She stood up angrily, picked up the gift, and walked out angrily.

It was not until the door was slammed shut as if to stop the anger that Chen Xuemei sighed slowly, her heart filled with disappointment.

Watching this scene from the second-floor staircase, Ye Tian couldn't help but sigh softly. Turning back to his room, he recounted the entire incident: "Aunt Chen must be very sad. She and Aunt Sun were best friends, but they fell out because of this incident..."

Xiao Yang glanced at Ye Tian calmly: "Brother Tian, ​​what do you think I should do?"

After a moment of hesitation, Ye Tian said solemnly, "I think it's best for you to take the initiative to go to the police station to withdraw the case. Aunt Chen defended you because she was taking your feelings into consideration. She was worried that agreeing to Aunt Sun's request would hurt your feelings. But I think people should be considerate of each other. Since you haven't suffered any serious injuries, why not give Sun Zhen another chance? This way, Aunt Chen will feel better too."

After saying that, he stared at Xiao Yang intently, wanting to see his reaction.

Xiao Yang had basically confirmed his previous guess at this point. However, he didn't give a precise answer, but only nodded slightly.

Ye Tian was about to say something when he heard Xiao Yang shout loudly: "Aunt Chen, I'm awake now. Please come up and help me change the medicine!"

Ye Tian felt embarrassed and laughed dryly twice, then immediately went downstairs to call Chen Xuemei.

Soon, Chen Xuemei sat down next to Xiao Yang: "How is your recovery going? Does your leg still hurt?"

"much better."

Chen Xuemei smiled and nodded. As she applied the medicine to Xiao Yang, she gently massaged him to help his body absorb it. She was worried that Xiao Yang wouldn't be able to handle it himself, so he had been helping her apply the medicine all this time.

Looking at Chen Xuemei's obviously haggard face, Xiao Yang sighed softly.

In fact, he had considered letting Sun Zhen go. Firstly, he was afraid of the Wang and Lin families becoming enemies; secondly, he was worried that Chen Xuemei would be caught between him and Sun Haiyan.

In fact, he had woken up a long time ago. Even if Ye Tian hadn't conveyed the news to him, he had heard most of the conversation between Chen Xuemei and Sun Haiyan.

He saw clearly that Chen Xuemei's rejection of Sun Haiyan was not just to protect herself, but was driven by her sense of justice. Even if she wasn't the real victim, she wouldn't compromise.
