Chapter 277 Too Reserved
Dai Hongying is bursting with a sense of justice and will not let any bad guy get away with it. Even if Lu Guoqiang has a powerful background, she is not afraid. Zhuang Qingxiang will naturally not hold her back.
Lu Guoqiang touched her inappropriately and attempted to sexually assault her. She is the victim, and she will definitely identify him!
Dai Hongying shoved Lu Guoqiang away with a triumphant air.
Zhuang Qingxiang thought to herself, if Guan Jing knew that her precious son had been taken away like this, she wondered if she would be furious.
Zhuang Qingxiang originally thought that Guan Jing would come to settle accounts with her that day for her precious son, but she didn't see her for a whole day and night.
Moreover, Dai Hongying said that no one went to rescue Lu Guoqiang.
It's so weird.
Zhuang Qingxiang didn't dwell on it too much; as long as Lu Guoqiang was imprisoned, she was safe.
In addition, Dai Hongying, out of concern, told her family that she would come and stay with her for two days, which made her even happier.
With Dai Hongying around, Zhuang Qingxiang could go out for a stroll by herself.
She didn't dare to ask about the location of the black market, so she just explored on her own and actually found it.
Zhuang Qingxiang bought two pairs of pillowcases and a few handkerchiefs on the black market and happily went home.
I returned home happily, only to hear some bad news.
Guan Jing is causing a scene at the police station, demanding that Lu Guoqiang be taken out.
Dai Hongying curled her lip in disdain: "I've seen what it means to use power to oppress others. She's putting on such an air of an official's wife. Isn't she afraid of implicating her family? Sister Zhuang, you'd better be careful. She'll definitely come looking for you."
Zhuang Qingxiang's heart immediately jumped into her throat.
She didn't want to face Guan Jing alone; going around in circles was incredibly boring.
She hoped that Lu Congyue would return from his business trip and stop the people.
Dai Hongying then brought up Lu Congyue: "Sister Zhuang, there are only two days left until New Year's Eve. When will Director Lu be back from his business trip?"
"I don't know either." Zhuang Qingxiang shook her head. "Business is important. I'll come back as soon as I'm done."
"Hurry back. I think that official's wife named Guan Jing is not easy to deal with. Isn't she Director Lu's stepmother? We need to let him deal with her," Dai Hongying said worriedly.
She can't stay here forever; the Lunar New Year is coming soon, and she definitely has to go home for it.
"Sister Zhuang, why don't you bring the children to my house for the New Year?" she suggested.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Lu Congyue returned, looking travel-worn.
"Why would my wife and kids go to your house for the New Year?" he said with a smile.
Zhuang Qingxiang's hand trembled, and she almost pricked her finger with the needle. She suddenly looked up at the man at the door.
Lu Congyue smiled at her: "Wife, I'm back."
Zhuang Qingxiang stood up and nodded: "Mm."
"..." Dai Hongying was speechless. "No, Sister Zhuang, is your reaction really that calm?"
Zhuang Qingxiang looked at her, puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Dai Hongying said, "Although I've never been married, I've seen how other couples get along. When they reunite after a short separation, wives rush to their husbands. The more outgoing ones hug them, while the more reserved ones hold hands. How could you just 'hmm' like that?"
Lu Congyue smiled again and nodded slightly: "Comrade Dai Hongying, you can come and visit your Sister Zhuang whenever you have time, and teach her more."
"Alright!" Dai Hongying replied crisply.
Zhuang Qingxiang blushed and glared at Lu Congyue, scolding him for following Dai Hongying's nonsense.
Lu Congyue smiled without saying a word.
"Alright, alright, now that Director Lu is back, I can go home with peace of mind. Sister Zhuang, I'm off now, I'll come back to wish you a Happy New Year later," Dai Hongying said with a smile.
She could tell that this middle-aged couple, who were newlyweds, were too reserved, and she didn't want to stay and get in their way.
"I'll take you," Zhuang Qingxiang said softly.
As they reached the main gate, Dai Hongying stopped her and whispered, "Sister Zhuang, I won't mention Lu Guoqiang's matter to Director Lu. You can tell him yourself, so I don't say anything wrong and cause him to misunderstand. Also, you need to make sure Lu Guoqiang's mother's matter is dealt with quickly, otherwise the impact will be too bad."
Their bureau chief is no pushover. No matter how much that official's wife caused trouble, the bureau chief didn't give her any face. But now everyone knows they are Director Lu's family, and everyone is talking about them behind their backs.
After explaining the situation, Dai Hongying took her leave.
Zhuang Qingxiang closed the door and turned back, thinking about how to tell Lu Congyue about this.
He just got back from a business trip. He was exhausted after a few days away, and then he heard about this terrible thing. He must be feeling very tired.
Moreover, he dislikes Lu Guoqiang and Guan Jing so much that if he finds out, he might rush to confront Lu Guoqiang.
Given Guan Jing's temper, if she hurts Lu Guoqiang, she definitely won't let Lu Congyue off the hook.
In that case, we probably won't be able to have a proper New Year celebration.
Ugh……
Zhuang Qingxiang was troubled, but when she entered the house, she saw that Xiao Luyue was clinging to Lu Congyue, and the two ignorant little ones were laughing and babbling. She felt less troubled.
What's there to worry about when the family is together? We'll just deal with whatever comes our way.
"What's wrong?" Lu Congyue noticed she seemed preoccupied and asked, "Did something happen while I was away?"
Although she doesn't talk much normally, when she looks at him and the children quietly like this, it means she's preoccupied.
Lu Congyue frowned slightly as he thought of Lu Guoqiang: "While I was away for the past two days, that bastard came by?"
Zhuang Qingxiang was slightly taken aback: "You knew?"
After he finished speaking, he realized he had misspoke; his question had been a question, and her counter-question had become the answer.
Lu Congyue immediately gestured for Xiao Luyue to play with her younger brothers, and then took Zhuang Qingxiang to the west room.
"What exactly happened?" he asked.
"It's nothing serious..."
Now that things had come to this, Zhuang Qingxiang stopped hiding it and recounted what had happened.
Lu Congyue sneered after hearing this: "He's really insane! A madman like him should be sent to a mental hospital. What kind of person is he, harming women outside..."
Before he could finish speaking, the courtyard gate was suddenly pounded on, accompanied by shouts.
"Don't worry about it, I'll go check on them." Lu Congyue stopped Zhuang Qingxiang and let her go inside to keep the child company.
Zhuang Qingxiang didn't argue with him. He was back, and no matter who was outside, it was his responsibility to handle the situation.
Lu Congyue strode to the courtyard gate, opened it, and saw Guan Jing's ferocious face.
"Lu Congyue, bring that bitch out here!"
Guan Jing was annoyed whenever she saw him, but now was not the time to settle scores. She needed to save her son and return to the capital for the New Year, which required Zhuang Qingxiang to issue a letter of forgiveness.
Lu Congyue's face was icy: "Comrade Guan, watch your manners! Shouting and using foul language at my doorstep, I can have you thrown out immediately!"
"Lu Congyue, you should be mindful of your status! I'm your mother, after all! I came to your house, and you blocked the door from letting me in? Do your colleagues know how you treat your mother?" Guan Jing said angrily. "And Guoqiang, he's your brother! You just watched that widow slander your brother, causing him to be arrested and imprisoned?!"
