Chapter 1434: You shouldn't be standing for long right now—I'll handle this

Liu Chuxue paid no attention to Chunxiao's ugly expression and instead looked at the classmates who had brought the clothes back: "Before Chunxiao handed out the clothes, did she tell everyone in the class that the clothes couldn't be altered and had to be returned exactly as they were?"

The classmates nodded at Liu Chuxue: "Chunxiao did tell everyone."

Liu Chuxue pointed at the clothes they were holding: "At first I figured you kids had worked hard for the collective honor, so I wanted to give you a hand. But given the situation now, are you trying to make trouble for my man?"

They naturally understood what Liu Chuxue meant. Although it was a few girls in the class who had altered the clothes, they were a collective after all, and right now they felt deeply embarrassed.

Fu Yan Cheng didn't want to tire Liu Chuxue out: "You shouldn't be standing for long right now. I'll handle this."

The classmates, hearing this, grew a little nervous. After all, Fu Yan Cheng was in full military uniform, his presence overwhelming. They exchanged a glance, then all looked at Chunxiao, hoping she would step forward.

But Chunxiao was pretty frightened herself right now. She knew her second sister's temper all too well—if the classmates weren't still here, she would have started scolding her long ago.

But right now the classmates were all looking at her.

She cleared her throat a few times: "Brother-in-law, I did tell them, but in the class......."

Fu Yan Cheng cut her off directly: "I'm not trying to make things hard for any of you. This is simple—whoever didn't follow the rules steps up and takes the consequences."

He pointed at the clothes in their arms: "My demand is very simple. I don't need any words of gratitude for helping you out. Just one thing—whatever was given to you, return it exactly the same. Understood?"

Finishing, he looked at his sister-in-law whose expression had turned ugly: "How should I put it—she did help your class solve a problem. But did any of you ever consider her?"

He casually pulled out a pair of trousers from the bundle they were holding; the knees and trouser legs were visibly soiled: "Alright, that's the situation. You've already borrowed them this long anyway, a few more days won't make a difference.

It's getting late, and you probably haven't had lunch yet. Go eat first, and take the clothes with you. Get them cleaned and return them exactly as they were."

Hearing this, the few of them looked at Chunxiao at the same time, their expressions very troubled.

Then Fu Yan Cheng spoke again: "Why are you looking at my sister-in-law? She didn't take part in the performance—there shouldn't be any clothes of hers in here, right?"

The implication of those words ran deep. How could the few of them dare linger any longer? They awkwardly offered a few words of apology, said goodbye to Chunxiao, and hurriedly left carrying the clothes.

The reason he did this was also to get revenge for his foolish sister-in-law. Even if she was hopeless, outsiders still couldn't be allowed to bully her.

The few people leaving with the clothes: "What do we do with these clothes?"

"What else can we do? Naturally whoever wore them has to clean them properly for her. We really were in the wrong first, so we can't blame her for being angry."

"Xiao Chun Xiao is something else too—not a single word of help for us."

"That's a bit much of you. We were the ones who wronged Xiao Chun Xiao. She helped us borrow the clothes, and now we've caused her trouble.

Believe it or not, the moment we leave, her family is probably going to give her a good scolding."

"No, is now the time to talk about this? I'm starving. What do we do with these clothes right now?"

"Leave them at my place for now. We'll bring them to class tomorrow."

"What about the ones that were altered?"
