Chapter 1014: 720 Alliance leader adds more! Thanks for everyone’s support!_2

"Who says a woman must get married if nobody wants her?"

"Will it really leave a scar?"

Jiang Chen frowned.

Fang Qing gave him a sideways glance, annoyed, but still said, "No."

Jiang Chen’s heart then settled back down.

"Who did it?"

He whispered.

"Just a small matter, why ask so specifically?"

"Can’t I ask about a small matter?"

Jiang Chen was, of course, aware that it definitely wasn’t from something like tripping, "You and Tong Dan can talk about it, but you have to keep it a secret from me? Qing Gege, are we not closer than you and Tong Dan?"

"If you like calling me that, then keep calling me that."

She didn’t know why.

Fu Zili and Tie Jun could address her like that without a problem, but Fang Qing never allowed Jiang Chen to call her that.

If it had been a normal time, Jiang Chen would surely have teased her, but perhaps considering she was now lying on a hospital bed, he finally compromised.

"If you won’t tell me, I’ll have to force it out of Tong Dan."

He pretended to get up.

"Stop right there!"

Fang Qing stopped him.

Jiang Chen turned around, quietly looking at her.

Fang Qing knew that this boy she had grown up with was not usually one to quibble, but once he got serious, he was incredibly stubborn, sometimes more so than her, never giving up until he achieved his goal.

"First off, if you dare laugh at me, I’ll kill you."

Jiang Chen remained unperturbed, "Murder is against the law."

Fang Qing looked at him, silent for a while, as if gathering her words.

"Today, Tong Dan invited me to a friend’s gathering, and Attorney Ding went too. In the end, his wife showed up. She must have misunderstood something about me and Attorney Ding, so she got emotional and pushed me."

Jiang Chen listened quietly and even though Fang Qing tried to downplay it, he could roughly guess what had happened from her brief description.

"The Attorney Ding you mentioned, is he your boss Ding He?"

"Yes."

"He’s married?"

That lawyer, Jiang Chen remembered having met him; he had even personally visited Fang Qing’s home before, and at the time, Jiang had been surprised that a boss would care so much about his subordinate.

"Yes."

"Did you know he was married before?"

"No."

Being a man himself, although he didn’t know the lawyer very well, Jiang Chen could certainly guess some of his motives.

Graceful ladies attract gentlemen.

Undeniably, his childhood friend Qing Mei, to those unfamiliar with her, still possessed a remarkable allure.

"Does it not upset you inside?"

He asked tentatively.

"Upset about what?"

Fang Qing asked without thinking.

"The man is married..."

Jiang Chen hesitated.

Fang Qing clearly understood his implication and immediately reverted to her usual self, rudely saying, "Get lost! There’s nothing between us! I just see him as my boss!"

Jiang Chen quickly corrected himself, wisely shifting the topic, "I didn’t mean that. I was saying, does it not upset you that his wife misunderstood you?"

Her head had even been injured.

Certainly, the conflict that erupted at the time was not as mild as Fang Qing described.

Imagining what a woman catching her husband cheating might say at the scene wasn’t hard.

"Not upsetting, really."

Fang Qing said calmly and openly, "But indeed, it was somewhat embarrassing."

"Was Tong Dan there at the time? With her temperament, did she just watch and not fight back?"

Jiang Chen asked with a smile, "Or is she also the type to bully the weak and fear the strong?"

"We’re not living in the old times anymore, thinking like when we were kids, if someone hit us, we’d have Fu Zili and the others retaliate."

"So what do you plan to do?"

Fang Qing was silent.

"Just going to endure it? And even resigning?"

Jiang Chen said, "You deal with us quite effectively, why are you so weak with outsiders? Bully inside the nest, huh?"

"You don’t need to worry about it."

Perhaps having no rebuttal, Fang Qing turned her head away.

"So it seems you only dare to bully me."

Jiang Chen shook his head and sighed.

"I bully you? Haven’t you bullied me enough times?"

When they were kids, it was indeed always him who had the upper hand, but as they grew up, he didn’t know when their "balance of power" had started to change.

Jiang Chen smiled.

Indeed.

When we were kids, it was one-sided dominance, but later, he and Qing Mei fought back and forth.

"Do you want me to accompany you?"

"No need, Tong Dan is here."

Fang Qing immediately refused.

"Alright, then you rest."

Jiang Chen wasn’t a fussy person, he made sure Fang Qing was alright and then got up to leave.

"You should stay out of this."

Fang Qing called out seriously.

"Don’t get yourself into trouble."

He understood her, and she understood him just the same.

Even her understanding of him surpassed her understanding of herself.

Jiang Chen paused his steps, didn’t turn around or respond, just said, "Rest well."

When he reached the door, he opened it and walked out.

Tong Dan was sitting on a long bench in the corridor.

"You’re going to have a tough night."

"She told you, didn’t she?"

Tong Dan stood up.

Jiang Chen nodded.

"Sorry."

Tong Dan looked ashamed and lowered her head.

"Why apologize to me?"

Jiang Chen smiled, "I think you did your best."

Joking aside, Tong Dan’s character and her relationship with Fang Qing could certainly stand the test.

But Fang Qing was right, times were different now, it wasn’t about seeing a friend get hit and immediately seeking revenge.

"Rest up, I’m going now. Let me know when the results come out tomorrow."

With that, Jiang Chen planned to leave.

Tong Dan reached out and grabbed his arm.

"Jiang Chen, I know you must be very angry, and so am I. At that moment, I wished I could tear that woman to pieces, but Fang Qing is right, we can’t act impulsively, that woman has a significant background."

"A significant background."

Jiang Chen turned around, "How significant?"

Tong Dan hesitated, then answered, "I don’t know. But a friend of mine, who invited me to the party tonight, is very wealthy, yet he wouldn’t dare to provoke that woman. He also warned me it’s best to keep the peace."

Being so brazen, not giving a face to her husband who was a prominent lawyer, causing a scandal in public—such a woman was either brainless or fearless.

Ding He, as a member of the elite class and a renowned top lawyer, would definitely not choose the former.

Behind every successful man stands a formidable woman.

The higher the class, the more true this is.

Just like Shi Zhenhua.

Of course, Jiang Chen anticipated that the woman was no ordinary person.

But so what if she wasn’t?

Hitting someone.

Was illegal.

There’s an old saying that had endured for thousands of years.

When the emperor breaks the law, he faces the same charges as the common man.

"Fang Qing didn’t want to tell you because she was worried you’d act impulsively, even though I always scolded you, I actually know you care about Fang Qing more than anyone else. And she feels the same about you."

Tong Dan held Jiang Chen’s arm tightly, "She doesn’t want to drag you into this."

Jiang Chen listened quietly, then smiled wryly.

"Tong the Beauty, I never realized you were so mature."

"Jiang Chen, I’m not joking with you! We can’t afford to mess with her!"

Jiang Chen could see the indignation and resentment in her eyes.

But after all, people have to grow up.

Growing up means learning to weigh the pros and cons, learning that backing down opens a broader perspective.

"I understand, don’t worry. Do you think I’m foolish? You weren’t wrong in scolding me before, I am indeed very selfish, and I don’t do things that will bring trouble upon myself."

Jiang Chen smiled.

Tong Dan gazed up at him.

"Go inside, it’s probably her first time dealing with this kind of situation; she might seem alright, but you never know how upset she is inside. You’ll have to console her more."

Jiang Chen smiled gently.

Tong Dan let go of his hand, "I’ll notify you after the checkup tomorrow."

Jiang Chen nodded.

"Don’t do anything rash."

Tong Dan cautioned him again.

"Leaving now."

Jiang Chen walked forward, and as they passed each other, his smile gradually faded.

He understood everything.

But he hadn’t bullied this Qing Mei too many times, so how could he allow others to bully her.
