Shocking! My Rugged Husband is the Hidden Tycoon in the 70s Novel-Chapter 134: Cleared of Wrongdoing

Li Ninghua was held by two strong men on either side, trying to send him to the police station. He struggled and said, "Shut up! Don’t listen to her nonsense. It’s that man who hit me. Do you know who he is? He’s Jiang Xingye, the small-time criminal from seven years ago!"

Everyone looked at Jiang Xingye. The case from seven years ago caused a sensation and is still often mentioned by parents educating their children, "Do you want to become a petty criminal like Jiang Xingye?"

Jiang Xingye stood calmly, expressionless, as if he was not the one being accused and criticized.

Only he knew that at this moment, he truly felt a world-shattering resentment in his heart.

If it were just him, it wouldn’t matter, but he didn’t want Xu Qinghuan to be implicated, scorned like him.

He was about to step aside to shield Xu Qinghuan, but she had already stepped forward, standing in front of Jiang Xingye. Under everyone’s watchful eyes, she grabbed his sleeve tightly and faced the crowd calmly.

Xu Qinghuan pointed her finger at Li Ninghua, "You are the son of Li Zhiguo, the petty criminal who bullied the young. I am the partner of Jiang Xingye. You slander my partner, I will sue you for defamation. Who said my partner is a petty criminal, the court, the police station, or your self-righteousness?"

"You’re talking nonsense, my father is not a petty criminal!" Li Ninghua said angrily.

Xu Qinghuan said, "Regarding the case from back then, the police station has a record. The truth is clearly written in the files. Your stepmother is my partner’s biological mother. She eventually admitted:

My partner only went to your house after hearing her complaints about your father constantly beating her, and happened to catch your father committing violence again. My partner, sympathetic to his birth mother, couldn’t help but retaliate against your father."

Xu Qinghuan looked around at everyone, "The police station investigated this matter very thoroughly at the time. The police station is just a few steps away, we can go over now to clarify who truly wielded a knife back then;

That knife belonged to the Li Family, it wasn’t something my partner brought. The first person who wanted to commit an act of violence with a knife was your father, not my partner."

She spoke heavily, "Since everyone remembers that incident from back then, you should also remember that my partner was only twelve years old then;

His grandfather was a retired soldier who earned honors in battle, and his father was a hero who sacrificed himself to protect the people’s property and lives. He was just a child who cherished his mother and wanted to protect her.

Half of the women in the world will become mothers. May I ask, even if your own child is truly an unredeemable criminal, would you go around publicizing their crimes?"

Almost everyone, men and women alike, shook their heads.

It’s too late to cover up, thinking about it this way, it truly is quite odd!

Xu Qinghuan continued, "If he were truly a heinous villain, and his mother went around publicizing his misdeeds, would the people’s law enforcement agencies really remain indifferent?"

Once again, everyone shook their heads. At this moment, the looks directed at Jiang Xingye were no longer filled with disgust and scorn, but with confusion.

Xu Qinghuan said, "I admit, ninety percent of parents in this world are competent, loving their children more than their own lives, but one must also admit that there are selfish and heartless mothers, such people are unfit to be mothers!"

A voice said, "No way, Ma Zilan treats her stepson very well, taking care of him meticulously, so why is she like this with her own son?"

"Ha! Back then, she went around saying how worthless her own son was. I couldn’t stand to listen. Even if the kid isn’t great, he’s only twelve, surely he could be taught well, what’s the need to criticize him everywhere?"

"Her husband had only been gone a few days before she walked away. I thought she didn’t have a son at all. Turns out she does, and she still remarried! Just watch, she’ll surely face consequences in the future!"

Jiang Xingye looked at the person shielding him. His heart was overwhelmed with a sourness, having endured so much unwarranted criticism and accusation. If it meant winning her support at this moment, he felt it was worth it!

"Don’t listen to her nonsense, she’s Jiang Xingye’s partner, of course she speaks in his favor. Jiang Xingye is just a bum, he was the one who just tried to hit me!"

Li Ninghua struggled, showing everyone his swollen face.

Seeing the five thick finger marks on his swollen face, some bystanders who were initially on Jiang Xingye’s side hesitated.

Xu Qinghuan sneered, "Why did he hit you? Why didn’t he hit someone else? Because you tried to harass me. You think I’m pretty and said I’m not good enough for my partner;

Also saying your stepmother would have my partner give me to you, that my partner couldn’t compete with you. You dared to touch me right in front of my partner, if he didn’t hit you, should he hit me instead?"

Li Ninghua was stunned. He suspected he and Xu Qinghuan were not in the same reality. Why did he not know about the things he supposedly did and said?

Before he knew it, Xu Qinghuan was already in tears, turning to hold Jiang Xingye’s arm, "Boo hoo boo hoo, it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have let my dad make me so pretty, causing trouble for you. Anye, you won’t blame me, right?"

Jiang Xingye was also a bit confused. Who could tell him how he was supposed to act in such a situation?

But seeing Li Ninghua being falsely accused, unable to defend himself, a warm current flowed through his heart.

His partner was avenging him!

In front of everyone, he didn’t dare to do anything too intimate with Xu Qinghuan, just gently touched her shoulder, "It’s not your fault. He’s a scoundrel, trying to pounce on any woman in sight. It’s not about whether you’re pretty or not."

Xu Qinghuan laughed secretly, nodded obediently, "Uh-huh, I got it, I shouldn’t be a woman."

Jiang Xingye pressed his lips, unsure how to respond, so he simply remained silent.

A passerby said, "Such a person should be sent to the police station."

"Yeah, send him to the police station. Daring to harass a girl in front of her partner, should we keep such a person around to trouble other women in the future?"

Li Ninghua suddenly panicked, "Nonsense, I didn’t, I never did that, she’s just spewing nonsense!"

"Which of my words is nonsense? Is it nonsense that I am pretty, or nonsense that you harassed me?" Xu Qinghuan’s eyes were red, tears hung on her cheeks, her red lips pouting stubbornly, making anyone who saw her feel moved.

Even though Jiang Xingye knew she was acting, he still felt distressed at this moment, his anger burning, "You only dared to have such vile thoughts because Ma Zilan sided with you.

I’ll say it again, seven years ago, Ma Zilan lied to the police, accusing me of theft at the Li Family. I will never recognize her as my mother. She’s not my mother, I only have a father, no mother!"

After all these years, he rarely brought up the past, but since Huanhuan disliked it, he would try to clear his name as much as possible.

This also made him realize that from now on, he wasn’t alone. He had someone beside him, and if his reputation suffered, she would be affected too.
