Chapter 209 will be known to everyone.
As Zhuang Qingxiang ran to the main gate, she stopped abruptly and looked at Huang Cuilan, who was squatting at the entrance of the security office.
Her face was ashen, and she was trembling. A security guard was standing next to her.
"Big sister!" Huang Cuilan cried out as if she had seen a relative when she saw Zhuang Qingxiang.
Zhuang Qingxiang, forcing her weak legs, walked up to her and smiled at the security guard: "Comrade, what happened to my sister?"
"What happened? She almost killed Village Chief Qian. Section Chief Niu told me to detain her and interrogate her slowly. If Village Chief Qian is alright, that's fine. But if something happens to Village Chief Qian, she can expect to be killed by the people of Dongya Village."
"How could that be? My sister is an honest person, she would never harm anyone." Zhuang Qingxiang chuckled dryly.
"An honest man? I saw it clearly when I went there; she pointed at the old village chief and called him an old beast."
Zhuang Qingxiang's vision went black, her face filled with disbelief.
Huang Cuilan was terrified and burst into tears, crying uncontrollably: "I... I was just saying it casually..."
"You...you're just being ridiculous!" Zhuang Qingxiang frowned, then smiled apologetically at the man. "Um...comrade, my sister comes from the mountains and doesn't know the rules. She definitely didn't do it on purpose; there must be a reason. Could you please not make her squat here and let her go inside to wait?"
The other party disagreed. In his view, Huang Cuilan was a criminal, and such a person only deserved to squat.
Just then, the factory's only jeep sped out of the gate.
Then Niu Jianzhong came running over, panting. Seeing Zhuang Qingxiang there, he asked in confusion, "You two know each other?"
"Hmm, she is..."
"I'm a distant relative of hers," Huang Cuilan said hurriedly.
Niu Jianzhong frowned. Director Lu and he had investigated Zhuang Qingxiang before, and she didn't have any distant relatives.
However, Niu Jianzhong didn't ask any more questions. When he saw that Zhuang Qingxiang wanted to plead for her, he directly refused and then had Huang Cuilan locked up first, waiting for news from the hospital.
Huang Cuilan was terrified and kept shouting for help to Zhuang Qingxiang.
Niu Jianzhong ignored them and only after taking the person away did he say to Zhuang Qingxiang, "I need to go to Dongya Village to inform Village Chief Qian's family. Do you want to come along?"
"No, I'll go to the county hospital too," Zhuang Qingxiang said impatiently.
Niu Jianzhong: "You should have said so earlier, I could have shouted and sent a car to take you there."
"I can go by myself." Zhuang Qingxiang said, and then walked away.
Niu Jianzhong shook his head and rushed towards Dongya Village.
Zhuang Qingxiang was lucky; she encountered a tractor on the way to the county town and quickly arrived at the county hospital.
When Lu Congyue and Shi Peiran were found, they were waiting outside the emergency room.
"How is Village Chief Qian?" Zhuang Qingxiang rushed over and asked anxiously.
Lu Congyue asked in surprise, "Why did you come here?"
"I'm worried. How is the village chief?"
"We don't know yet." Lu Congyue raised his chin. "They're inside trying to save him."
"Dr. Shi, what do you think?" Zhuang Qingxiang asked Shi Peiran.
He's a doctor, so he should be able to roughly know about Village Chief Qian's condition.
Shi Peiran asked, puzzled, "Village Chief Qian's situation... it's hard to say. Sister Zhuang, why are you so nervous?"
Unable to explain, Zhuang Qingxiang pulled Lu Congyue aside and whispered what had happened.
Lu Congyue then realized that the woman who had angered Village Chief Qian to the point of fainting was Xiao Qianyue's biological mother.
"Is she crazy? Why would she do such a thing?" Lu Congyue said angrily with a stern face. "I think we don't need to take Yueyue to her house, and we can't give Yueyue to her either. What kind of person is she?"
Zhuang Qingxiang could tell that Lu Congyue was completely on Village Chief Qian's side.
She thought somewhat discouragedly, "This is probably Huang Cuilan's fate. If something really happens to Village Chief Qian, the people of Dongya Village will immediately recognize Huang Cuilan as Qian Quan's ex-wife. Huang Cuilan will either be beaten to death on the spot or thrown into jail..."
More importantly, Huang Cuilan's escape will be exposed, and she might even reveal all the grievances she suffered.
At that time, everyone will know about my affairs.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Qingxiang's face turned pale, and she swayed.
Lu Congyue quickly supported her: "Why are you so scared? This has nothing to do with you. Just keep it from Yueyue. It's Huang Cuilan's own fault for bringing this upon herself."
Zhuang Qingxiang steadied herself by holding onto the wall, her heart pounding wildly.
At that moment, she suddenly didn't care about the old village chief and Huang Cuilan's life or death. She wanted to go home, take Yueyue and Chenglin, and run away to a faraway place where no one knew them.
"Sister Zhuang, you look terrible. Are you feeling unwell?" Shi Peiran wanted to step forward and check on Zhuang Qingxiang.
Zhuang Qingxiang quickly shook her head: "I'm fine, I'm just a little worried... Don't worry about me, just wait for news."
She sat down on a lounge chair, staring anxiously at the emergency room door.
When Village Chief Qian's three sons arrived, accompanied by Niu Jianzhong, the doctor and nurses were just as they were wheeling Village Chief Qian into the ward.
"How is my dad?"
"It's alright, the treatment was timely. Let the elderly person rest well," the doctor replied.
Everyone was relieved to hear this. Qian Village Chief's three sons, who had been so frightened that their legs went weak, perked up as soon as they knew their father was alright, and started clamoring to find someone to settle scores with.
"Hand over that person. I want to see what kind of person could make my father so angry."
"My father is already sixty years old, how dare she be so infuriating? I think this is intentional homicide."
"Is it a woman? Who is she? Where is she?"
The three men took turns asking Niu Jianzhong for the man, and Niu Jianzhong could only appease them for the time being.
The noise in the hallway was so loud that it attracted the nurses, who then got angry and made them quiet down.
Lu Congyue ignored them and asked Zhuang Qingxiang, "There's no use you being here. Let Shi Peiran take you home. Niu Jianzhong and I will stay here and keep watch."
Zhuang Qingxiang nervously buttoned up her clothes and shook her head: "The old village chief has been very kind to me, I want to stay here for a while."
At that moment, Village Chief Qian's youngest son saw Zhuang Qingxiang and rushed over, asking, "Is that you? Did you make my father like this?"
On their way here, they heard a lot of nonsense from Niu Jianzhong, and all they knew was that it was a woman. There was only one woman here, Zhuang Qingxiang, so who else could it be but her?
The other two also rushed over, looking like they wanted to confront Zhuang Qingxiang.
Lu Congyue stood before Zhuang Qingxiang with a grim face, his sharp gaze sweeping over the three people in front of him: "She has nothing to do with this!"
"You think it's unrelated just because you say so? Everyone knows you two have an affair, of course you're taking her side."
"Exactly! You're the factory manager, we wouldn't dare offend you, but we can't let my father off the hook! Since she's here, it must be related to her!"
Seeing that an argument was brewing, Niu Jianzhong hurriedly came over to explain: "This really has nothing to do with Comrade Zhuang Qingxiang. She doesn't even know what happened. She wasn't there when the old village chief collapsed. Would I lie to you about that? You can ask at the factory later."
