âAuntie! We... We actually just came back from the police station...â He Xiyuan explained.
âWhat!? Just came back from the police station? You already reported it in? Why didnât the police arrest this brat? Did he threaten you?â My mom said furiously.
I really am going to faint! Is she still my mom! Is her son so terrible in her mind? Is there still logic in this world!
âMom, listen to me, can you let me finish first!â I interrupted my mom and said.
âFine! Iâll listen to you first, when you finish, let the chick speak! If I see what you say itâs difference, Iâll break your leg today!â My mom said with a deep breath.
âMom! Actually itâs like this...â Thus I told my mom everything about taking Zhao Yanyan and Chen Weier to eat, then meeting He Xiyuan at the door, as well as how I beat the bad guys and finally entered police station.
âSo you didnât bully her?â My mom said with an expression of disbelief.
âAuntie, what Liu-dage said is all true! Not only that, he also acted as a samaritan!â He Xiyuan quickly said
âReally?â Only then did my mom let out a sigh of relief, nodded and asked.
âMom! Am I just a scourge to good girls in your mind?â I said innocently.
My mom didnât reply, she only glared at me. However, that expression clearing meant that âI think you are!â
âYou are actually so good-hearted? And even saved someone?â My dad said.
âDad! What are you saying, this isnât the first or second time Iâve saved someone! Didnât I save Xia Jing last time!â I reminded.
âOh yeah! If you donât say it, I really might have forget, now that you say it, I really regret it! I wonder howâs Xia Jing now, if I know my son is like this, I would never have let Xia Jing slept on the same bed as you!â My mom sighed. âLiu Lei, you didnât do that to Xia Jing right?â
âMom, what are you thinking! Is your son, I, that kind of person! We have a guest here, mom can you save some face for me!â I said embarrassedly. Actually I actually nearly did do that.
âYou also know that you need face! Heh!â My mom said coldly.
I felt quite speechless, and could only change the topic onto He Xiyuan. I told He Xiyuanâs background to my parents, but I left out the part about knowing the police chief, since there are some things that I didnât know how to explain to my family yet.
When I reached the part about the evil Jia Daguo used his identity as the village chiefâs son to tyrannize people, and forcefully occupied He Xiyuanâs familyâs fruit garden, my dad furiously smashed the table, and said angrily, âIs there still law! Xiyuan, uncle will help you out! Uncle will take you to the court to sue them! If it doesnât work, then weâll find the cityâs government or the cityâs municipal committee, if that doesnât work then weâre go into the province!â
âOld Liu! Please! Do you think the provincial party committee and cityâs municipal committee is your home? And you can go when you want? First of all, you have no evidence, second of all, you donât know if that village chief has a backing! If that village chief has some sort of official backing him here, then not only would you fail, youâll also get in a whole lot of trouble!â My mom analyzed logically.
My dad nodded after hearing that, he really was too worked up! Heâs just an engineer in an electronics factory, what right does he have to help people get even!
âUncle, Auntie! Liu-dage already promise to help me find the police...â He Xiyuan had wanted to say âLiu-dage already promised to help me find the police chief for helpâ, but I stopped her with an expression.
âYeah, dad, mom! I already promise to take He Xiyuan to find the police!â I quickly said.
âFind the police? Ai! What use is finding the police for this! The police station here canât do anything about their village chief, whatâs more the village chief is under the county officials, there is no direct relationship with the police!â My dad also regained his composure, and knows that it was very complicated. âOh yeah, which village did you say you were from again?â
âYanhe Village,â He Xiyuan replied.
âYanhe Village? Isnât that the place where I went to work in the countryside! Back then, I had a sworn old bro, he was the village accountant back then, he might be an even more important official right now, he might be able to help you! Oh yeah, heâs called He Dali, have you heard of him?â My dad thought about it and said.
âWhat! You... You know my daddy?!â He Xiyuan immediately said in shock after hearing that.
âWhat! What did you say? He Dali is your dad?!â My dad opened his eyes wide in shock, pointed at He Xiyuan and said in surprise.
My mom and I were also very surprised, and looked at my dad in disbelief. I didnât think that this girl I saved actually have some kind of relationship with my family!
âYeah... My dad is He Dali, Uncle, you know my daddy?â He Xiyuan was so shocked that she coughed, she didnât think that she would be able to meet her fatherâs friend even here.
âYeah! I know him! How could I not!â My dad carefully checked He Xiyuan out, then slowly said. âBack then when I went to the countryside, I lived in He-dage, He Daliâs ââ in other words, your fatherâs home! Ai! Time passed so quickly, back then we were both kids, and were around as old as you and Liu Lei... Twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye!â
âUncle, you are the sworn brother, Liu Renshan-shushu, that daddy always talks about?â He Xiyuan thought about it and said.
âYeah! Your dad still remembers me! ...Ai? No, isnât your dad the village chief? Logically speaking, he should already be an official now, why is he still being bullied?â My dad said weirdly.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMy daddy was the accountant back then? Why donât I know about this! My daddy never said anything about it?â He Xiyuan said weirdly.
âReally? Thatâs strange! This is too strange! However, girl! Since you are He-dageâs daughter, then you are my, old Liuâs, daughter, donât worry! Uncle will take care of the problem for your family! Even if uncle walks still his shoes break, he will help you get justice!â My dad said passionately.
âOld Liu! Stop losing face in front of the kids, seeing you making no room for error in your words, what will you do then!â My mom mocked.
âAbout this...â My dad momentarily blanked, he knows that he acted idiotically again.
âOld Liu, you better talk with your He-dage and discuss it. If it really canât be helped, then leave it, letâs not sue then! Our family canât be said as rich right now, but we can make it through, if it canât be helped then letâs just pay the money for the two children to go to school!â My mom was very generous in certain matters, this made my dad and I admire her a lot. Sheâs not like some women, who always act petty.
âAuntie, how can we accept it!â He Xiyuan shook her head.
