Chapter 328 - The Difference Between Love and Harassment
Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs
A security guard wearing a raincoat arrived late. As he stopped that person, he looked over. Xiao Meiâs face was livid. Based on his figure and voice, she could tell that it was Cao Yang again.
Cao Yang knelt on the ground and shouted in the heavy rain, âI wonât give up on you no matter what! Little Mei, I hope you can see my sincerity!â
After shouting twice, he fainted.
Mu Jingzhe: ââ¦â
This kind of idol drama plot was really awkward.
Mu Jingzhe felt embarrassed, but everyone else didnât. The accompanying doctor and the security guard who had helped take a look at the heat stroke went out and dragged Cao Yang in. âHis body is fine, but he suffered a heat stroke previously and was suddenly drenched in the rain today, so he couldnât take it and fainted.â
Everyone looked at Xiao Mei after hearing that. It was unknown if they were talking to themselves or Xiao Mei.
âHeâs quite devoted. He hasnât given up even now.â
âYeah, how many days has it been?â
The security guard also spoke up. âThis child said that he realizes his mistake. Heâs sincere about you. Men understand other men. If he didnât like you so much, he wouldnât have done such an embarrassing thing.â
Xiao Meiâs face was stiff, but she still didnât speak. The security guard couldnât help but mutter things like âheartlessâ and âthere is nothing more vicious than a womanâs heartâ. Xiao Meiâs face turned pale from anger.
Mu Jingzhe shook her head. This was totally moral blackmail. When she saw that little girl Xiao Mei looking so angry that her hands were trembling, she slowly spoke.
âBrother Ni, I remember you having a daughter. Is that right? She came to look for you before.â
âThatâs right. Whatâs wrong?â When his daughter was mentioned, the security guardâs face lit up, but he didnât understand why Mu Jingzhe had suddenly mentioned her.
âNothing. I just heard a rumor previously. Donât be angry.â
âWhat rumor?â
âThey said a boy likes your girl a lot and keeps chasing her around. Everyone feels that this boy is devoted, so theyâre asking your daughter to accept him. Your daughter actually doesnât like him, but everyone keeps criticizing her, which makes her feel very troubledâ¦â
âThereâs no such person, right? Besides, why would everyone keep harping on about it if she already said she doesnât like him?â The security guard interrupted her impatiently.
âBecause that boy is very devoted and has been wooing her for three years.â Mu Jingzhe blinked.
âThree years? So what? Who is it? Iâll go look for him!â The security guard was so furious that he didnât notice everyoneâs strange gazes.
Mu Jingzhe seemed startled by the security guard. âWhy are you getting angry? I thought you were going to say that your daughter is heartless and that she is the most vicious woman in the world. Then, youâd force her to accept that boy.â
âWhy would I sayâ¦â the security guard retorted angrily. At this point, he suddenly realized what was happening. âYouâ¦â Hadnât he just said those words? Howâ¦
Mu Jingzhe looked at him. âGo on. Why did you stop? Didnât you say that men know other men the best?â
The security guard choked and his face turned red, but he couldnât say a word.
He was usually very responsible and diligent when it came to his job. He was helpful and warm-hearted, but sometimes he was too warm.
âIt seems like you know what the word âshamelessâ means. I thought you couldnât differentiate between harassment and entanglement and thought itâs always devotion.â After saying that, Mu Jingzhe didnât look at the security guardâs pale, blushing face and instead looked at Xiao Mei.
âXiao Mei, when the weather clears up, go to the police station and let the police deal with him.â
âWhy call the police?â Everyone was stunned for a moment. They didnât know why this had been brought up all of a sudden. Xiao Mei abruptly looked up at her. âBut⦠Can I do that?â
âOf course you can. Youâve already broken off your engagement to him. You also told him to stop looking for you, but he didnât listen to the warning and kept pestering you. Why canât you call the police when a stranger is pestering and harassing you?â
As Mu Jingzhe spoke, she calmly looked at the ground. Cao Yang, who was lying on the ground where he had just fainted, trembled under her eyes. It was unknown if it was because he was drenched in cold sweat or because he was frightened.
Xiao Meiâs eyes lit up. âAlright, Iâm not afraid of the rain. Iâll go now.â
After saying that, Xiao Mei rushed out. Even though Cao Yang woke up in time to call Xiao Meiâs name, it was useless.
Cao Yang watched as Xiao Mei ran out in the rain and glared at Mu Jingzhe with hatred. This person was to blame again. It was Mu Jingzheâs fault again!
Why did she always ruin his plans? Not only had she hired that woman as her assistant, but she had even ruined his marriage!
Mu Jingzhe didnât react to his gaze at all. Cao Yang had been staring at her like this for some time.
Cao Yang then retracted his gaze and looked at the others for help. However, those who were supposed to be on his side didnât say anything after hearing Mu Jingzheâs words.
âDid Xiao Mei really go to the police station? I didnât mean to hurt her. I just wanted to get back together with her.â
Cao Yang was afraid when he heard that, but he thought that the people at the police station might not pay attention to something like this. After all, no one had reported a case like this before.
In fact, Xiao Mei quickly returned with the police. âOfficer, itâs him. Please help me.â
Xiao Mei walked with an umbrella, but she still looked a little disheveled when the wind blew. The police officer nodded. âWe understand.â
Actually, this was the first time they had received such a report. At first, they had been a little stunned. However, Xiao Mei was very smart and had directly told them that Cao Yang had beaten her up previously and that he might use extreme methods, such as forcing her to change her mind.
Now that Xiao Mei had said this, the nature of the matter had changed. Theyâd immediately sent the police over.
Cao Yang hadnât expected Xiao Mei to really come back with the police. Furthermore, the way the police looked at him frightened him.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI didnât do anything, Officer. I just wanted to get my fiancée back. I meant no harmâ¦â
âWe already learned that sheâs no longer your fiancée. Since youâve broken off your engagement, you shouldnât have come to look for her again. By doing this, youâve seriously affected Miss Xiao Meiâs life. Come back with us.â
The words âcome back with usâ sounded like âweâre going to arrest youâ to Cao Yang. He broke down immediately when he heard that. âIâm not coming. Why should I? I didnât do anything wrong!â
After saying that, he couldnât help but roar at Mu Jingzhe, âMu Jingzhe, why are you picking on me again and again?! Youâre ruining my happiness!â
Mu Jingzhe only had one answer to this. âIf you curse a few more times, youâll be going back with them in handcuffs.â
This reply sealed the deal for Cao Yang, as he didnât want to wear handcuffs and couldnât wear them either.
Cao Yang was taken away to cooperate with the investigation. The security guard and the few people who had spoken up for Cao Yang subconsciously took a step back and didnât dare say another word.
Because Cao Yang hadnât done any actual harm, he was released in the end. However, he was also warned not to harass and follow Xiao Mei anymore. Otherwise, things would get troublesome.
Cao Yang hadnât expected that his devotion would result in him going to the police station. He was furious, but he really didnât dare harass Xiao Mei anymore.
Xiao Mei finally found peace again, but fewer people from the production team were looking for her to talk to her. Of course, even fewer people were looking for Mu Jingzhe to talk to her as well.
No one had expected Mu Jingzhe to have such a sharp tongue and have someone arrested by the police on a whim. No one wanted to be arrested for saying something wrong.
They didnât come to look for Mu Jingzhe, but Xiao Mei intended to follow Mu Jingzhe around. âI didnât dare come looking for you previously because I was afraid that Cao Yang would blame you. Now⦠Iâm not afraid anymore.â
