His Venomous Former Boss Chased Him And Beat Him Fiercely Chapter 15
byOtherwise, no one would know even if he died.
The person who arrived was a villager, broad-faced and dark-skinned, wearing a straw hat and carrying some tools. Kong Xunwen still found him unfamiliar, but Aunt Yu seemed to know him.
When Aunt Yu first saw this man, she seemed to relax slightly, but soon a large group of other people followed behind, and her expression immediately grew more tense, though she tried to hold firm.
Kong Xunwen glanced at her. Since he hadn’t done anything wrong, he naturally felt no guilt.
“What are you doing here?” the approaching man asked in a rough voice, giving Aunt Yu a meaningful look.
Qiu Zhijie, who had been standing quietly to the side with Yezi, silently stepped forward and stood beside Kong Xunwen. Kong Xunwen noticed him out of the corner of his eye, but this was not the time to worry about such things, so he didn’t move.
The villagers behind the man also moved closer. Some who saw their own children grew even more worried.
Did this young Kong family member who returned bully the children? But the children didn’t look like they had been.
Aunt Yu spoke first, seizing the initiative: “You all have to judge this fairly for me! I’ve been helping out here, minding these little ones honestly, but Little Kong came over and said some nasty things, even accusing me of treating the children badly? You all see how I treat them normally. Which time haven’t I taken time out to look after the children?!”
“Alright, alright, don’t get too worked up.” The man put down his tools and stepped forward to support Aunt Yu. He also said to the villagers behind him: “She just feels wronged, after all, she’s always been helping everyone, hasn’t she? This matter…”
“Oh, we definitely trust Aunt Yu,” one person quickly interjected.
Liu Tingfang quietly raised her head and saw that it was indeed her grandparents. Her eyes dimmed, and she lowered her head again.
“We certainly trust her, but we should also hear what the children and Little Kong have to say. Maybe it’s just a misunderstanding?”
Kong Xunwen patted Little Boss’s head. He saw the person who spoke: a neatly dressed elderly woman with bright, clear eyes, who smiled and exchanged a glance with Little Bai beside her.
Little Bai immediately beamed happily when he saw his grandmother arrive. The other children quickly searched for their own parents, but none were found.
Although slightly disappointed, their beloved Grandma He was there.
Aunt Yu and her man’s expressions darkened slightly, but they still smiled and agreed: “Yes, yes, yes.”
Kong Xunwen slowly pulled out his phone: “Actually, it’s very simple. I have a recording here.”
He played the recording, which covered everything from when he approached Aunt Yu until just now. The recording had only just stopped.
Aunt Yu’s voice rang out, and she immediately looked at the man beside her in a panic.
The man moved his lips and raised his voice to talk over the recording: “I don’t think this is a big deal. Let’s just drop it for now. We won’t hold a grudge.”
With that, he grabbed Aunt Yu, intending to leave.
Kong Xunwen raised an eyebrow, stepped forward, and blocked them directly: “Don’t rush off. Actually, besides this, we also have a video.”
He looked at Liu Tingfang’s grandparents and Grandma He, who had just spoken: “I’m sure everyone else feels the same way.”
Only the parents whose children were sent here had spoken. The other villagers were completely watching the excitement. Most of the people remaining in the village now were middle-aged or elderly; young people couldn’t stay, and not many sent their children back.
So, this matter was largely unrelated to them.
However, based on the meaning of that recording… Aunt Yu was actually this kind of person?!
“They say adults shouldn’t fuss over children, but how did you manage to reverse that?”
“Exactly, aren’t you ashamed!”
“If you ask me, we should all take a look and sort this matter out clearly. Aren’t children treasures in any home?”
“And to think she had the nerve to talk about Little Kong earlier!”
“I think Little Kong is an honest person; what he said was spot on!”
Though they said this, ultimately, the matter depended mainly on what the children’s parents said. Someone immediately, not wanting to miss the drama, called the families of the remaining children who weren’t present, asking them to come over.
Seeing this, Aunt Yu panicked even more. In her panic, she couldn’t help but rush forward: “What nonsense are you talking about? How can you believe him? Maybe he faked all this, he must have… he must have set me up!”
Just then, Liu Tingfang’s grandparents and Grandma He had finished watching the video.
Liu Tingfang’s grandfather, who had been silent for a long time, raised the basket in his hand and smashed it directly onto Aunt Yu’s head. He stared at Aunt Yu, his mustache trembling: “How dare you say that!”
Aunt Yu was stunned by the blow and was speechless for a moment, but before she could speak, Liu Tingfang’s grandmother rushed forward.
“You wicked woman! How did we not know you were treating our Fang like this behind our backs? Heartless things like you should be eaten by dogs! How could you lay a hand on a child?! Her arm was like that! And you still lie through your teeth! Ah!”
Aunt Yu was grabbed and scratched. While she was even more bewildered, she couldn’t help but fight back. Her man stepped forward to help shield her but was immediately punched to the ground by Liu Tingfang’s grandfather.
He was furious, his eyes bloodshot: “You knew what she did, didn’t you?!”
The man remained silent, offering no rebuttal.
Liu Tingfang’s grandmother on the side rendered Aunt Yu completely defenseless.
Aunt Yu cried miserably, calling out to heaven and earth, weeping internally—these two old fogeys weren’t usually like this!
Grandma He watched from the side. She didn’t join in the physical fight, but her gaze toward Aunt Yu and her man was filled with fury.
As for the actions of Liu Tingfang’s grandparents, she was somewhat surprised, yet it also felt somewhat expected. The elderly couple were usually honest people, even honest to the point of being a little weak.
She remembered how Aunt Yu, relying on the fact that she helped look after the children, had previously caused trouble at various homes, trying to gain more advantage even after being paid some money. But she had only succeeded at Liu Tingfang’s grandparents’ house.
This time, they were simply too enraged. Although Grandma He was also angry, the other children in the video were protected in the back, but little Tingfang was pinched that badly in the video, and Aunt Yu had said those things.
How could they not be angry?
Liu Tingfang stared blankly at her grandparents.
She looked dazed and unresponsive, completely lacking her usual cleverness.
Kong Xunwen wasn’t so surprised, as he didn’t know the couple’s usual temperament, but he did notice Little Boss’s distress and couldn’t help but stroke the child’s head again.
Qiu Zhijie also walked over. His assigned task from Kong Xunwen earlier was to film the video from a distance. He had just gone over to show the video to everyone.
The children all stayed by Kong Xunwen’s side.
Seeing Kong Xunwen stroke the child’s head again, Qiu Zhijie slightly raised one eyebrow, then reached out and took the young man’s other, idle hand.
Kong Xunwen turned his head to look, momentarily failing to recognize who it was, and met the man’s innocent eyes.
He pulled his hand away easily.
Qiu Zhijie’s hand was empty, but he didn’t mind. Since his attention had been drawn over, he leaned down close to the young man’s ear and whispered, “Can I stay for lunch too?”
A reward? But he didn’t phrase it that way.
Kong Xunwen was still very direct: “Go eat in the county.” That would be better for him.
Qiu Zhijie’s plan failed, but he didn’t dwell on it and nodded.
Chasing someone required this kind of persistence.
On the other side, Liu Tingfang’s grandparents’ emotions had not yet calmed down, and the remaining parents who had been called rushed over.
They arrived to face this scene.
Pangpang’s grandparents were also plump. Ni’er’s maternal grandparents looked very amiable, both with round faces. Yezi’s grandfather was tall and thin, and his grandmother was shorter.
All six had rushed over after receiving the call, fearing something had happened to their grandchildren. Now, facing the chaotic situation, they were utterly bewildered.
They looked at each other, then walked together toward the crowd, finding the villager who called them to ask what exactly had happened.
After understanding the situation and watching the video and listening to the recording, they became filled with anger, just like Grandma He and the other two. Aunt Yu and her man were already a mess under the suddenly increased combat power of Liu Tingfang’s grandparents.
At this point, watching was simply satisfying.
After Liu Tingfang’s grandparents ran out of energy and stopped, everyone gathered together. Some unrelated villagers had already left, while others stayed to see the outcome.
Kong Xunwen remained with the children. Seeing a group of elderly people, several generations older than him, walking toward them, his feet involuntarily shifted.
He really hated scenes like this!
Qiu Zhijie glanced over. A few seconds later, he stepped forward to take over the expressions of gratitude and other emotions Kong Xunwen was about to face.
The children also rushed to their respective parents. Liu Tingfang shuffled small steps to her grandparents’ side.
They hurriedly checked the injury on her arm, and after seeing it, they cursed Aunt Yu a few more times.
The other children were also thoroughly checked.
Kong Xunwen didn’t stay long to wait for the final outcome of Aunt Yu’s situation. After seeing the Village Committee members arrive, he sent the video and recording to Grandma He and then left with Qiu Zhijie.
The two walked back together.
Qiu Zhijie didn’t speak, only looking at Kong Xunwen from time to time.
Kong Xunwen looked down at the path ahead and suddenly spoke again: “When are you leaving?”
“…I don’t have anything planned for today,” Qiu Zhijie said.
“If you have nothing to do, you can go play somewhere else. There’s nothing fun here.” Kong Xunwen paused for a few seconds, then added: “Thank you for today’s matter.”
Whether it was for helping film the video or for blocking those people just now.
“You’re welcome.” He said after a few seconds of silence.
The two walked all the way to the gate of Kong Xunwen’s house. Qiu Zhijie’s flashy car was still parked outside.
Kong Xunwen stopped at the door.
Qiu Zhijie looked at him with some confusion.
“Go on, I’ll see you off.”
How could that mouth and that face utter such heartless words with a straight face?
Qiu Zhijie didn’t want to leave. He really wanted to cast aside his pride and stay, but…
At least for now, he couldn’t do it.
“I’ll be back tomorrow,” he said finally.
Kong Xunwen couldn’t help himself: “You…”
He still didn’t finish the sentence.
“Just go. Don’t come back.” It was less a rejection than an admonition.
Qiu Zhijie didn’t respond. He opened the car door, got in, and rolled down the window to look at Kong Xunwen.
“I’ll be back tomorrow.”
Kong Xunwen’s answer was to simply remain silent, watching the car start and drive away.
Returning to the courtyard, he walked through the living room.
It was so quiet.
The man hadn’t spoken much when he was here, but his presence was strong, filling the space completely.
Kong Xunwen thought about telling a smart system to play music, then remembered there was no smart system here. He had to pull out his phone and manually play music.
Boiling rock music surged out, filling the silent space once again.
He thought expressionlessly, he should install a smart system quickly.
Otherwise, no one would know even if he died.
