Free Web NovelChapter 45: Chapter 45: No One Is Allowed in My House
The crowd of onlookers hadn’t expected the situation to escalate to the point of calling the police. They had originally wanted to try and mediate, but with parents from both families present, they figured it wasn’t their place to say anything.
’Forget it, we’ll just watch from the sidelines! Who knows, we might actually get to see some real drama!’
Although Shen Jian Country and Shen Xiangdong were a step behind Miao Cuifen, they also arrived quickly. Seeing that Shen Nian and her mother were both unharmed, the two men breathed a sigh of relief.
As for Qin Xueling and her mother, seeing so many people from the Shen family show up made them start to worry.
"What is the meaning of this, Shen family? Are you all ganging up on us at my home because it’s just me and my daughter?! Everyone, you be the judge! Have you ever seen the Shen Family bully anyone like this?!"
Wang Siying started wailing at Shen Nian and her group again. Her shrewish tantrum was getting to be a bit much for the onlookers.
"Wang Siying, that’s enough of your wailing. A few members of the Shen Family showed up, but they haven’t done a single thing! You, on the other hand, have been shouting about beating her daughter to death several times now!"
Although the people on the sidelines wanted to see a good show, they were still reasonable. Besides, the Shen Family had always been kind to others, and they shouldn’t have to suffer like this just because they were good-natured.
Besides, there was no conclusion to the matter yet, so who knew who was telling the truth and who was lying? Wang Siying’s wailing might have worked once or twice, but after so many times, they had long since grown tired of it.
"If they weren’t bullying us, would I be acting like this?! They’ve got us trapped outside our own home, unable to go back in! Now get lost, all of you! What are you doing crowding around here?!"
"Aunt Wang," Shen Nian said to Wang Siying, "as long as Qin Xueling returns my report card and publicly clarifies the slanderous rumors about me, we will leave immediately, no questions asked."
Although Shen Nian had initiated today’s events, the situation had escalated far beyond her expectations.
However, since things had already come to this, Shen Nian certainly wasn’t going to back down. ’If they want to cause a scene, then let’s give them a big one.’
’Let everyone in Shen Family Village get a good look at Qin Xueling’s true colors!’
"That’s right! Give my sister her report card back and apologize to her!"
"I didn’t take it! I didn’t do it! Why should I apologize?!"
Qin Xueling was now in a state of stubborn denial. With so many people here, she was unwilling—and terrified—to admit the truth.
"Qin Xueling, do you think you can get away with this just by stubbornly denying it? The thing is at your place. We’ll find out if you took it with a simple search of your house!"
"Who dares?! You... none of you are allowed in my house!"
Hearing Shen Nian’s words, Qin Xueling scrambled to block her front door, preventing anyone outside from getting in. It wasn’t just that Shen Nian’s report card was in her house—she suddenly remembered that Yin Yang was still inside! He hadn’t come out yet!
’If I had known this was going to happen, I never would have invited Yin Yang over at a time like this!’
If Qin Xueling hadn’t blocked the door, it might have been fine. But the moment she did, the onlookers all started to think something was fishy.
’If she really didn’t steal their stuff, why would she block the door and not let them in? These days, it’s not like people have anything particularly valuable at home, and certainly nothing that can’t be seen!’
Just as the two sides were locked in a standoff, a voice came from outside the crowd.
"Who called the police?"
Hearing the voice of the person who had arrived, everyone on Shen Nian’s side felt a surge of joy.
’Great, the police are finally here.’
