Chapter 455: Three People Arguing
Han Chunming quickly caught up with Su Meng. Seeing Su Meng crying with tears streaming down her face, he couldn't help but soften and said, "Su Meng, listen to me."
Su Meng stopped and looked at Han Chunming, her tone filled with grievance and anger: "Han Chunming, what else do you have to say? You've already brought your new girlfriend home, why are you still pursuing me?"
Han Chunming rubbed his head and hurriedly explained, "Su Meng, listen to me, things aren't what you think."
Su Meng immediately covered her ears and shook her head repeatedly, "I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it!"
Just as Han Chunming was about to continue explaining, Cheng Jianjun suddenly ran over. Looking at the two of them, he said with feigned regret, "Chunming, how could you do this? You used to say you liked Su Meng, and I thought it was true. Who would have thought you had someone else? I really misjudged you."
Looking at Cheng Jianjun's hypocritical demeanor, Han Chunming felt utterly disgusted and said coldly, "Cheng Jianjun, what business is it of yours here? Get out of my way."
Cheng Jianjun was stunned by Han Chunming's words, then flew into a rage: "Han Chunming, who are you telling to get lost?"
Han Chunming stared at him and said, word by word, "It's you. I'm telling you, Cheng Jianjun, get out of here. Don't you hear me?"
Enraged, Cheng Jianjun grabbed Han Chunming by the collar: "Han Chunming, are you crazy? How dare you talk to me like that?"
Han Chunming shoved Cheng Jianjun aside and angrily said, "Cheng Jianjun, this is between Su Meng and me. What business is it of yours? Why are you interrupting?"
Cheng Jianjun looked at Su Meng and said righteously, "What do you mean it's none of my business? Su Meng is beautiful and kind-hearted, and I don't want to see her deceived by you."
Seeing the two arguing incessantly, Su Meng finally couldn't help but yell, "Get out! Both of you get out! Neither of you are any good!"
Seeing that Su Meng was angry, Cheng Jianjun quickly stepped forward to persuade her: "Don't be angry. Han Chunming is greedy and always looking for something better. There's no need to get angry because of him. There are plenty of good men in the world."
As he spoke, Cheng Jianjun deliberately pointed to himself.
Upon seeing his expression, Han Chunming was about to retort, but Su Meng looked at Cheng Jianjun and spat out, "Cheng Jianjun, you're no better than me."
After saying that, Su Meng told him about Cheng Jianjun's report against Han Chunming.
Cheng Jianjun was shocked upon hearing this; he never expected Su Meng to find out. Seeing Cheng Jianjun's flustered state, Su Meng's anger subsided somewhat.
Cheng Jianjun hurriedly shook his head and protested, "Su Meng, don't listen to what others are saying. How could I possibly do such a thing?"
Su Meng pointed at Han Chunming and said, "How is it impossible? Chen Ming heard you make the call with his own ears, how could that be fake?"
Cheng Jianjun glanced at Su Meng, then at Han Chunming beside him, and said angrily, "Han Chunming, why are you framing me?"
Han Chunming retorted sarcastically, "Framed you? I heard everything clearly when you made that call. Should we go ask the people at the supply and marketing cooperative what you said on the phone?"
Cheng Jianjun's heart sank. He suddenly realized why Han Chunming hadn't fallen for his scheme—Han Chunming had overheard his phone call. He was still puzzled as to how Han Chunming knew his actions, and immediately asked, "Han Chunming, how did you know?"
Han Chunming looked at him and said calmly, "If you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place. You think you're being discreet, but little do you know that all the shameful things you've done have been seen by everyone."
Cheng Jianjun wanted to continue explaining, but Su Meng glanced at the two of them and said coldly, "You two are the same, both disgusting."
After saying that, Su Meng ran away.
Han Chunming glared at Cheng Jianjun and said through gritted teeth, "Cheng Jianjun, you better stay away from Su Meng from now on!"
Cheng Jianjun dropped his pretense and looked at Han Chunming, saying, "Han Chunming, on what grounds?"
Han Chunming said, "Cheng Jianjun, you are not worthy of liking Su Meng."
Cheng Jianjun was furious: "Han Chunming, don't think you're so great. You're still relying on your family, aren't you? Who do you think you are? Besides, anyone has the right to pursue Su Meng. If you can pursue her, why can't I?"
Han Chunming looked at him and said, "Just because you do disgusting things..."
Cheng Jianjun sneered: "Me, disgusting? I think you're the disgusting one. You've already brought your girlfriend home, and you're still pretending."
Han Chunming could no longer hold back and punched Cheng Jianjun in the face.
Cheng Jianjun touched his slapped cheek and said resentfully, "Good for you. Consider this a return punch. From now on, we're even."
Watching Cheng Jianjun's departing figure, Han Chunming felt a strong sense of defeat.
Han Chunming returned home dejected. Cai Xiaoli, seeing his state, felt a pang of heartache and softly called out, "Chunming, are you alright?"
Han Chunming shook his head: "It's nothing, it's all my own fault."
Cai Xiaoli advised, "Chunming, don't treat yourself like this. Some things are in the past, so let them be. Or should I go and explain things to you?"
Han Chunming shook his head: "No need, you'll only make things more complicated by explaining."
At this moment, Han's mother and Han Chunyan came out of the kitchen. Seeing Han Chunming return, Han's mother said happily, "Chunming, tell me, what's so good about Su Meng that you had to chase after her? Look at Cai Xiaoli, isn't she great? She didn't even get angry when you ran away. You should treat Cai Xiaoli well."
Han Chunming frowned, and was about to explain his relationship with Cai Xiaoli when Cai Xiaoli pulled him out.
As Cai Xiaoli pulled Han Chunming towards the door, she said to Han's mother, "Auntie, Chunming and I have something to do outside first."
Han Chunming looked at Cai Xiaoli, who was pulling him, and said angrily, "Cai Xiaoli, what are you doing?"
Cai Xiaoli looked at him: "Chunming, what do you want to do?"
"I'll explain our relationship to my mom and sister."
Cai Xiaoli said, "You want to explain? How can you explain? If you really try to explain, it will only make things more complicated. Besides, with me here, as long as we don't say anything, I'll be your shield. No one will stop you from doing whatever you want in the future. Even if you want to win Su Meng back, I don't mind. Once you've won Su Meng back, I'll just back off."
Looking at Cai Xiaoli in front of him, Han Chunming felt a pang of guilt: "Isn't this too unfair to you?"
Cai Xiaoli smiled and shook her head: "What's unfair about this? This is my own choice, so what do you think of my idea?"
Han Chunming nodded: "Okay then, thank you."
Cai Xiaoli then grabbed Han Chunming's arm and said, "Alright, let's hurry home, or your mom and sister will get worried."
Han Chunming looked at the arm that was being held, and was about to speak when Cai Xiaoli cut him off: "If we don't go back in like this after we came out like that, your mother and your sister will definitely get suspicious."
After hearing this, Han Chunming could only nod.
Zhang Lei was unaware of everything that had happened on Han Chunming's side. If he had known, he would have frowned, thinking to himself how things were getting more and more chaotic.
