Chapter Twenty-Five: Overjoyed to Tears
The police arrived quickly and everyone was taken back to the police station except for Chang Yu-sheng, who needed emergency treatment.
Jiang Xu didn't reveal his identity because there was no need to.
He was acting in self-defense, and many people can testify to that. Moreover, the thugs under Guang Ge had hidden knives on them, which were discovered when they arrived at the police station, further proving Jiang Xu's innocence.
So Jiang Xu just made a statement and then left with Zou Rong.
As for Guang Ge and Fang Da Tong, they are probably not going to leave the police station for the rest of their lives. Staying in the police station, their lives have some guarantee, but if they leave, what awaits them will be the ruthless revenge of the Chang family.
In the face of the Chang family's formidable power, Guang Ge and Fang Da Tong were almost indistinguishable from ants, perhaps the day they walked out of the police station was the moment they sank to the bottom of the river.
And this is exactly Jiang Xu's true intention.
Guang Ge is basically done for, and the troubles that have been plaguing the Zou family will naturally be resolved. The Zou Rong family no longer needs to move away from Hu'an City.
After leaving the police station, Jiang Xiu and Zou Rong walked together towards the First Hospital of the city, because Zou Rong's bicycle was still left outside the hospital gate.
"Jiang Xu, will Guang Ge go to jail?" Zou Rong asked Jiang Xu with great anticipation after walking not far away.
At this time, how could Zou Rong not know the purpose of Jiang Xu taking her to the hospital? However, she did not know what the final outcome would be for Guang Ge. If Guang Ge was only detained for a few days and then released, they would still have to move out of Hu'an City.
Jiang Xu smiled and said, "Don't worry, no matter if Guang Ge goes to jail or not, he will never appear in front of you again for the rest of his life."
Jiang Xu's tone was extremely affirmative. If Guang Ge hadn't died at the hands of the Chang family, he would have personally taken action to understand Guang Ge's fate. Jiang Xu absolutely wouldn't allow anyone to threaten the woman he wanted to protect.
For this, Jiang Xu did not hesitate to commit any murder.
"Then can our family not move away?" Zou Rong continued to ask.
"Of course." Jiang Xu nodded lightly.
"Jiang Xu, thank you." Zou Rong said with unparalleled excitement.
The college entrance examination is approaching, and Zou Rong really doesn't want to leave Hu'an City at this time. She wants to get into a good university, find a good future for herself, and repay her father's upbringing in the future.
Jiang Xu certainly didn't need Zou Rong to say thank you, he had already decided to protect Zou Rong and naturally would take on this responsibility.
However, Jiang Xu's body suddenly stopped at this time, his eyes seriously looked at Zou Rong, and suddenly said: "Zou Rong, actually you don't need to say thank you to me, because I don't want you to leave."
"Jiang Xu, I...I don't know what you're talking about."
Zou Rong didn't expect Jiang Xu to confess to her, her small face almost instantly turned red with shyness, and her heart was extremely flustered.
Looking at Zou Rong's shy appearance, Jiang Xu's smile on his face became even thicker.
The last time he confessed to Zou Rong, Zou Rong almost didn't hesitate and directly rejected him. But this time, Zou Rong's reaction was completely different.
Of course, Jiang Xu knew that now was not the time to confess, and the timing wasn't ripe yet. So, at a time when Zou Rong's heart was racing with anxiety, he continued to say: "Zou Rong, if you leave, then there won't be anyone to help me with my homework, and the college entrance exams are only a month away. What if I don't get into a top university?"
"Ah."
Zou Rong was taken aback for a moment, she thought she had misunderstood Jiang Xu's meaning, and became even more flustered, her small face reddening to the point of being completely flushed.
"Zou Rong, why is your face red?" Jiang Xuming asked with a mischievous grin, obviously teasing Zou Rong on purpose.
However, at this moment, Zou Rong's shy appearance was indeed very touching, that white and tender skin with a hint of red, that shy and charming posture, was enough to cause an unparalleled visual impact on any man.
Looking at Jiang Xu's mischievous smile, Zou Rong suddenly realized that Jiang Xu was intentionally teasing her.
"Jiang Xu, you're so bad."
Zou Rong's face turned red with anger and embarrassment, she let out a soft snort, then directly stretched out her small white hand to hit Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu directly smiled and dodged, while Zou Rong was closely pursuing behind.
In the midst of chasing each other, happy and playful laughter echoed from time to time.
▂▂▂▂▂▂
Jiang Xiu rode his bicycle and took Zou Rong back to Huyang High School.
Sitting behind Jiang Xue, Zou Rong naturally grabbed Jiang Xue's clothes, the gentle breeze blowing her skirt, those delicate small feet as white as jade, swaying gently with the clear wind.
Perhaps because the matter of Guang Ge had been resolved, Zou Rong's mood seemed to be exceptionally good. On the way back to school, a touching smile lingered on her small face.
After arriving at school, Zou Rong once again began helping Jiang Xu with his homework.
As their relationship drew closer, the atmosphere between them also became more harmonious, with bursts of laughter erupting from time to time.
It was almost noon when Jiang Xiu and Zou Rong finally finished their supplementary lesson. Zou Rong wanted to go home first and share the good news with her parents.
Jiang Xu simply put all the books into his backpack, but he didn't leave with Zou Rong immediately. Instead, he asked: "Zou Rong, where is Uncle working now?"
Zou Rong didn't know why Jiang Xu asked these questions, but she also didn't plan to hide anything and replied truthfully: "My dad doesn't have a job, usually he just does some odd jobs for others, his left arm was injured and can't exert force anymore."
Jiang Xu didn't know about this and continued to ask: "Zou Rong, how did Uncle's arm get injured?"
"It was crushed by a heavy object, the doctor said it's muscle and nerve damage, can't be cured." Zou Rong replied in a low voice, thinking that her father had become like this, still having to work hard for a living, she felt an unspeakable discomfort in her heart.
Jiang Xu thought for a moment and asked: "Is Uncle at home at this time?"
"It should be, my dad and mom are probably busy with the move now." Zou Rong first responded with a sound, then looked at Jiang Xu with some confusion, clearly not knowing why Jiang Xu asked these questions.
"Then I'll go with you to your home and discuss something with Uncle."
"What's going on?" Zou Rong asked even more puzzled.
"I want to introduce a job to my uncle, it's very easy and simple, and the salary is not low."
Jiang Xu needed to find someone to help him sign the share transfer contract of Jincheng Pharmaceutical, and Zou Dazhu, who was loyal and honest by nature, was undoubtedly one of his most ideal choices. Moreover, he could also help the Zou family through this matter, which would be a win-win situation.
"Jiang Xu, is there really such a good job?" Zou Rong's beautiful eyes lit up, and what she was most worried about now was that her father was too tired and overworked. If there really was a job that was a bit easier, it would be great.
Jiang Xu directly picked up his backpack and said: "I said there is, then there must be, let's go, first to your home and then talk."
"Uh-huh."
Zou Rong nodded and then walked out of the library with Jiang Xu.
▂▂▂▂▂▂
After a day, Jiang Xu came back to this old street again.
Pushing open the door, he walked into the front hall and saw Zou Dazhu and his wife packing their belongings. They were putting clothes and some important things into boxes, and there were already several large trunks in the courtyard.
Su Mei first saw Zou Rong, seeing her daughter return, she asked: "Rong Rong, didn't you say that today you would help Jiang Xu with his homework and wouldn't be back until tonight? Why are you back so early?"
Zou Rong has already given the two thousand yuan to her parents, saying that Jiang Xu lent it to her. She also told her parents that she would do her best to help Jiang Xu with his homework in the next few days. When leaving home in the morning, Zou Rong even brought two pieces of mantou for lunch.
But now that Guang Ge's matter has been resolved, Zou Rong doesn't need to rush to help Jiang Xu with his homework anymore.
Zou Dazhu saw his daughter come back and also put down what he was doing.
However, at this time, Jiang Xu had already appeared in their line of sight.
"Jiang Xu, how did you come?"
Seeing Jiang Xu, the faces of Zou Dazhu and his wife both showed a few points of surprise, they were very grateful to this little boy who had helped them out, and also very welcome.
Jiang Xu's face showed a polite smile, and he said: "Uncle, I came to talk about something with you, but it's not urgent. Let Zou Rong speak first, she has some good news to tell you."
Zou Dazhu's eyes suddenly turned to Zou Rong and curiously asked, "Rongrong, do you have some good news to tell us?"
Zou Rongqiang suppressed his excitement and said, "Dad, we don't have to move anymore. Guang Ge has been caught by the police."
"What?"
Listening to Zou Rong's words, Zou Dazhu and his wife were first stunned, then their faces were filled with extremely excited expressions.
"Rong Rong, are you telling the truth? Was Guang Ge really caught by someone?" Su Mei asked anxiously, her voice trembling with excitement.
"Mom, I saw him being caught with my own eyes. He beat a person of great status into serious injury. This time, he's probably going to be in prison for the rest of his life."
Zou Rong didn't say what Jiang Xu said because it was Jiang Xu's own request, and even this answer was thought up by Jiang Xu to help her.
But just because it wasn't said doesn't mean it didn't happen.
At least Zou Rong knew that she would definitely remember this matter for a lifetime and be grateful for it.
"It's really great, evil has its retribution, this kind of scoundrel should have been locked up long ago."
"Heavens have mercy..."
Su Mei said with tears streaming down her face, and even Zou Dazhu was also overwhelmed with emotion, of course, they were crying tears of joy.
Zou Rong's eyes were also red-rimmed, and her gaze secretly fell on Jiang Xu.
At this moment, she suddenly realized that this boy who had once made her extremely disgusted was gradually changing the fate of their family.
