Chapter 437 Who Did He Offend?

The only thing he could think of was marrying Jiang Jiaojiao after her disfigurement and taking care of her for the rest of her life.

When Dong Aihua heard Ouyang Jingdang's words, her eyes filled with sadness.

After all, he was the man she fell in love with at first sight after being sent to the countryside, and now he was saying he wanted to marry someone else, which made Dong Aihua very sad.

Jiang Jiaojiao's reaction was indifferent; she felt no joy at Ouyang Jingdang's promise.

Seeing the sadness on Dong Aihua's face, Jiang Jiaojiao felt extremely pleased.

She looked at Ouyang Jingdang and said earnestly.

“Brother Ouyang, you don’t have to marry me in the future. But you have to promise me that you can’t be with Dong Aihua.”

Jiang Jiaojiao is a bit petty.

In any case, the main reason for her injury this time was because of Dong Aihua.

She wasn't selfless enough to forgive the other person.

Although her feelings for Ouyang Jingdang, with whom she grew up, had faded somewhat after her injury, she absolutely would not allow him to get involved with Dong Aihua, who had hurt her.

Dong Aihua stared at Jiang Jiaojiao in disbelief. But in the end, she said nothing.

Ouyang Jingdang wasn't in a difficult position. At this time, Dong Aihua wasn't as important to him as Jiang Jiaojiao.

Therefore, when Jiang Jiaojiao said those words, Ouyang Jingdang agreed without even thinking.

It has nothing to do with morality; it's just because of the relationship between the Ouyang and Jiang families that Ouyang Jingdang wouldn't let Jiang Jiaojiao down.

Even if he and Jiang Jiaojiao couldn't develop a romantic relationship, they still had a brother-sister bond, which was indelible.

Dong Aihua looked at Ouyang Jingdang in disbelief. She hadn't realized how insignificant she was in Ouyang Jingdang's eyes.

In an instant, the lofty image of Ouyang Jingdang in my mind shattered.

Although Dong Aihua was disappointed, she felt mostly relieved.

If Jiang Jiaojiao insists on being with Ouyang Jingdang after being injured, it will definitely be an insurmountable obstacle in their hearts.

Dong Aihua didn't want things to turn out this way either. More importantly, she just wanted Jiang Jiaojiao to get better quickly and didn't want to talk about relationships anymore.

Love is truly terrifying.

After clarifying things, the three of them felt much better. Jiang Jiaojiao also stopped resisting Dong Aihua.

Dong Aihua and Ouyang Jingdang also took good care of Jiang Jiaojiao.

When Su Jianjun arrived in the afternoon, he was relieved to see the three of them getting along so harmoniously.

His purpose in coming was to have a good talk with the three of them and see if they had offended anyone recently.

Seeing that they weren't making a fuss, Su Jianjun felt that the task should be easy to complete.

All three were victims, and Su Jianjun did not hide anything, explaining the matter of the sickle clearly.

“I already asked Liu Yongjun’s family yesterday. They said they didn’t put the sickle there.”

Dong Aihua was most agitated and angry when she heard about the sickle.

"Captain, that's not right. Just because he said he didn't put it there doesn't mean he didn't! What if he's lying!"

Ouyang Jingdang and Jiang Jiaojiao also looked at Su Jianjun with suspicion.

This was what Su Jianjun feared most. He was certain the sickle wasn't placed there by the Liu family, but the educated youth who weren't familiar with the villagers didn't think so.

Su Jianjun sighed and continued.

"If they put it there, they have no motive! Besides, who would be foolish enough to leave the sickle behind and give others leverage over it?"

After Jiang Jiaojiao was taken to the hospital, the sickle that had cut her face was not taken back, but left at the scene as if waiting for someone to notice it.

This is also why Su Jianjun was certain he wasn't a member of the Liu family.

Liu Yongjun and Sun Dahua are not stupid. If the sickle really was placed there by their family, they would definitely hide it carefully.

This whole thing looks like an attempt to frame the Liu family.

Su Jianjun explained his and the villagers' speculations, and concluded by saying...

"If we can't find out the truth, we'll report it to the commune or hand it over to the police. I believe they won't wrong an innocent person."

This was the only thing Su Jianjun could think of. It was a strange thing; he had never encountered anything like it in his decades of life.

Of the three, Ouyang Jingdang was the most clear-headed.

He thought about it and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the brigade leader was right. He looked at Jiang Jiaojiao and Dong Aihua and asked.

"Have you offended anyone recently? Has anyone disliked you?"

Dong Aihua lowered her head and thought for a moment, then finally shook her head and said.

"No. I get along well with everyone, except for Jiaojiao, I haven't had any conflicts with anyone."

Jiang Jiaojiao: ……

Ouyang Jingdang: ...

Su Jianjun: ...

Ouyang Jingdang shook his head and said.

"Jiaojiao doesn't count. Think about it again."

Then, Ouyang Jingdang turned to Jiang Jiaojiao and asked her a question.

"Jiaojiao, what about you?"

Jiang Jiaojiao was a little embarrassed, and her voice was a bit soft, but it still reached everyone's ears clearly.

"Apart from Brother Ouyang, I am not familiar with anyone else."

Su Jianjun glanced at Jiang Jiaojiao, who was looking down.

Unfamiliar?

That's still too mild a statement. Judging from Jiang Jiaojiao's usual words, if someone says one thing to her, she can retort with ten. If it weren't for the villagers keeping her in check, Jiang Jiaojiao would probably be arguing and fighting with the educated youth at the settlement every day.

If the sickle was indeed deliberately placed on the road where Jiang Jiaojiao and Dong Aihua were passing by, then this person was very likely targeting Jiang Jiaojiao.

After all, Jiang Jiaojiao was notorious for her poor interpersonal relationships.

Dong Aihua and Ouyang Jingdang had obviously thought of this as well.

All three of them turned their gaze to Jiang Jiaojiao.

Ouyang Jingdang spoke gently, continuing to inquire patiently.

"Jiaojiao, think about it again. Usually, who is your worst friend, someone who seems to want to eat you up?"

Jiang Jiaojiao rolled her eyes at Ouyang Jingdang and gestured towards Dong Aihua with her lips.

other people:……

Annoyed by the questions, Jiang Jiaojiao's anger flared up, and she snapped at Ouyang Jingdang.

"Why do you only ask me and Dong Aihua? Why don't you think about yourself?"

Ouyang Jingdang was somewhat speechless.

“You are the victim, that person hurt you, of course we have to ask you.”

Jiang Jiaojiao continued to retort.

"How do you know that person wanted to hurt me? What if it was you?"

Ouyang Jingdang and Dong Aihua looked at Jiang Jiaojiao with expressions that said, "Don't be ridiculous."

However, Su Jianjun's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly.

“Jiang Zhiqing is right. I remember Ouyang Zhiqing often took walks on that path. That person’s target might really be Ouyang Zhiqing. Jiang Zhiqing was just mistaken.”

After Su Jianjun reminded them, all three of them realized what was happening.

Indeed, Ouyang Jingdang would take a walk and enjoy the scenery on that path every day after meals. Everyone at the educated youth settlement knew this.

Although Dong Aihua and Jiang Jiaojiao also took that path, they were nowhere near as diligent as Ouyang Jingdang.

Yesterday morning, if the two hadn't suddenly decided to follow Ouyang Jingdang, they would have taken a different route.

Therefore, Jiang Jiaojiao's injury might really have been an accident.

Although they are all deductions and guesses, they are all reasonable.

Ouyang Jingdang racked his brains but couldn't figure out who wanted to harm him. Besides, he was well-liked at the educated youth settlement and no one usually bothered him.

I really can't think of anyone who would want to harm him.

The situation became even more complicated, and Su Jianjun had no other choice but to report it to the police!
