“What is it? Where are you? What’s happened?” Chen MO’s voice instantly became tense.
Xia Wan and Chen Shan also turned their attention to Chen MO, their eyes fixed on his face.
“Okay! Wait for me, I’ll be right there!” Chen MO said before hanging up.
“What’s wrong with Shuishui?” Chen Shan immediately inquired.
Chen MO stood up, preparing to leave. “Shuishui said she’s at the door. She seems to be tangled up with some troublesome people!” “I’ll go check it out. I’ll be back soon!”
Chen Shan nodded. ‘Go ahead! Don’t let Shuishui be troubled!”
“Dad, don’t worry! No one can bully my sister!” After speaking, Chen MO pushed open the door of the private room and hurried out.
Xia Wan respectfully said to Chen Shan, “Uncle Chen, I’ll go and take a look too.”
Chen Shan gestured with his hand. “Go ahead.”
Xia Wan exited the private room and heard the sound of people arguing. The noise was somewhat distant, likely due to the cross-courtyard layout of the venue.
Following the direction of the voices, Xia Wan pa.s.sed through two doors and saw a crowd gathered.
Chen MO reached the scene before her and saw Chen Shui in a dispute with a woman.
“Where did you come from, you uneducated woman!” a high-pitched voice rang out.
“As expected, poor villages produce bad people!”
“Today is really unlucky! How did I end up encountering such a disorderly person!”
Chen Shui glared angrily at the speaker. “Who are you calling rude and ill-mannered?!”
“You were the ones who b.u.mped into someone. Why aren’t you apologizing? Why are you acting so arrogantly?
“You expect others to apologize first? Dream on!”
When Chen MO heard this, he immediately pushed through the crowd to reach Chen Shui’s side. “Are you hurt?”
Even though Chen Shui had recovered under Xia Wan’s care, Chen MO couldn’t hide his concern.
After all, given Chen Shui’s past health struggles, her well-being was always a priority.
Seeing Chen MO arrive, Chen Shui gained more confidence.
She first addressed Chen Mo’s worry. “Brother, don’t worry. I’m fine! I wasn’t the one who got hit!”
Then, she recounted the incident to Chen Mo. “When I came in just now, I saw this woman b.u.mp into a waiter. She complained about him and demanded an apology and compensation for a change of clothes!”
“I couldn’t stand it, so…”
After listening to Chen Shui and confirming she was unharmed, Chen MO turned to confront the belligerent woman.
Since it was his sister standing up for justice, he was ready to back her up.
“Don’t think I’m afraid of you just because you’ve found a man to support you!” The woman sneered upon seeing Chen Mo.
“Let me tell you, in this small county, no one dares to cross me!” The woman spoke with arrogance, her expression smug.
“You’re quite audacious! Let’s see what you’re capable of!” Chen MO had no intention of showing mercy to such a condescending woman.
“What’s the matter? You dare to touch me?” The woman scoffed. “It seems this really is an uncivilized place. Such barbaric behavior!”
“Let me tell you, my brother is with the military command center! If you provoke me, I’ll have all of you arrested!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Shui laughed. “Who was it that said she wouldn’t seek a man’s help? What now? Isn’t your brother a man?”
‘You!” The woman was momentarily speechless. Her gaze then fell on her companion approaching from a distance.
“Tongtong, hurry over here! They’re bullying me!”
Jiang Tong had been waiting for Xu Jia in the private room. Seeing that Xu Jia hadn’t returned, she went out to look for her. She hadn’t expected to find a commotion outside.
Originally intending to avoid any conflict, Jiang Tong was surprised to find Xu Jia at the center of the quarrel.
“What happened?” Jiang Tong approached Xu Jia and a.s.sessed Chen MO and Chen Shui before asking.
“This woman insulted me first! Then she even called her brother over to intimidate me!” Xu Jia played the victim first.
Chen Shui wasn’t about to be falsely accused. “If you hadn’t b.u.mped into someone and refused to apologize, I wouldn’t have been involved with you for so long!”
“Who are you calling a shrew!” Xu Jia, perhaps emboldened by her companion’s presence or provoked by the term “shrew,” shifted from verbal to physical aggression.
Xu Jia, who had been merely talking, raised her hand as if to strike Chen Shui’s
