Free Web NovelChapter 448: Chapter 444: Makes Sense
After retorting at Sun Yecheng, Chen JianShe turned to Gu Jiaojiao with an apologetic look. "Sister-in-law, this is all my fault. We were making too much noise breaking the ice and didn’t notice what was happening over here."
Chen Jie walked over from behind. Hearing what Chen JianShe said, he also chimed in, "Sister-in-law, it’s my fault. Brother Leng and JianShe were just helping me break the ice."
Chen Jie had arrived late, and by the time he got there, all the good spots had been taken. He had no choice but to go a bit farther away, which was why he hadn’t noticed what was going on.
When Chen JianShe saw Chen Jie crowding closer again, he shot him a glare.
’And it *is* your fault.’
When Sun Yeshu had gone to talk to Gu Jiaojiao, Chen Jie had run over with his bucket, shamelessly pestering them to let him fish with them.
Naturally, Chen JianShe couldn’t agree to that.
Lu Yuanbin was already annoying enough. If Chen Jie joined them now, wouldn’t his life be caught between a rock and a hard place?
’That would never do.’
So, Chen JianShe refused, using the excuse that it would be too crowded. But Chen Jie didn’t give up and insisted that Leng Yuan help him pick a fishing spot.
To get rid of the guy, Chen JianShe deliberately chose a fishing spot far away for him.
Because of the terrain over there, the ice was thicker, and Chen Jie shamelessly asked for their help again.
So Chen JianShe and Leng Yuan went over to help. Who would have thought that in the short time their backs were turned, Sun Yecheng would dare to bully his sister-in-law? The man was practically asking for a death wish.
His Brother Leng doted fiercely on his wife. The ice was so slippery, yet Brother Leng crossed it in just a few steps.
He followed behind, trying to speed up too, but the ice was incredibly slick, making it impossible to walk fast.
The situation made him so frantic that he actually worked up a sweat just from walking in the dead of winter.
Still, even though he couldn’t compare to his own Brother Leng, he was much faster than Chen Jie. Chen Jie was even slower than him and was the last one to arrive.
Three men now stood by Gu Jiaojiao’s side. Leaving aside whether Leng Yuan could fight or not, it was at least three against one. Even if they were just average guys, Sun Yecheng stood no chance.
"Sun Yecheng, if you’re a man, then fight my Brother Leng! Otherwise, you’re just a man with no guts!" frёewebηovel.cѳm
Sun Yecheng’s face darkened at the words. He was in an impossible position. Leng Yuan was strong and a good fighter; he was no match for him. Accepting the challenge would be humiliating.
But not fighting meant he was a man with no guts. It was a classic lose-lose situation.
Either way, he’d lose face. It was just a matter of which was more humiliating.
After agonizing over it for a moment, Sun Yecheng tried to reason with them.
"This was your fault in the first place. She’s the one who told my little sister to get lost. I was just trying to get her to apologize to my sister; I never actually intended to get physical."
Upon hearing this, Chen JianShe laughed. "Let me tell you, Sun Yecheng, my sister-in-law was just sitting here and didn’t move an inch. Your little sister came over looking for trouble herself. My sister-in-law told her to get lost, so you should be asking your sister what she did to piss my sister-in-law off."
"After all, there are so many people here. How come my sister-in-law didn’t tell anyone else to get lost? She only told your little sister. You didn’t even bother to find out what happened before coming here to cause trouble for my sister-in-law. You’re clearly bullying her."
The onlookers nodded in agreement when they heard this.
That was right!
They had all just seen it happen: Gu Jiaojiao had been sitting there the whole time without moving. It was Sun Yeshu who had actively gone over to start something.
Sun Yeshu, who had been looking aggrieved, felt her eyes turn red the moment she heard what Chen JianShe said.
"Chen JianShe, I know you’re good friends with Leng Yuan, so of course you’d side with Gu Jiaojiao. But how could you say something like that?"
"All I did was come over to say hello, and she told me to get lost! And now you’re all ganging up on us because there are more of you. You’re such bullies!"
