Chapter 324: The Gossiping Mother

~7 min read 1,377 words

After comforting Xia Nuannuan, Qin Tian called his mother and his future mother-in-law separately, explaining the situation concisely.

During this time, Xu Hao and Su Yan arrived in a hurry with several police officers.

Tian Jiajia and Xia Nuannuan's emotions had mostly calmed down, and the three girls explained the sequence of events to the officers together.

Then the ambulance arrived, and Zhang Peng was carried onto it and sent to the hospital for treatment.

Even though the emergency personnel indicated that the injury was not a problem, Tian Jiajia insisted on going along.

Finally, it was Zhang Peng who spoke up, telling her to go to the police station to explain the situation, and that Xu Hao would accompany him to the hospital.

Only then did Tian Jiajia agree, saying she would go to the hospital to find him immediately after things were finished here.

Just as the ambulance left, Tang Xiuxia arrived.

Because she was at a store in the mall in front, she rushed over at top speed after learning of the situation.

Before long, two more police cars arrived.

The three thugs were handcuffed and loaded into a police car.

Qin Tian and the others also got into police cars separately to go to the station to give statements.

On the way, Tang Xiuxia kept holding Xia Nuannuan's hands, saying with lingering fear that it was fortunate nothing major happened, and that they must never take such risks again in the future.

Xia Nuannuan leaned on her shoulder, nodding obediently in agreement.

After arriving at the police station, everything proceeded according to procedure.

With both witnesses and physical evidence present, there was naturally no problem.

Although Qin Tian's actions were a bit heavy, because the opponent was holding a weapon and had made clear attacking gestures, it was judged as self-defense, so there was no problem.

In fact, the officers even expressed affirmation and praise for his skills.

The three bag snatchers also confessed without reservation, honestly explaining everything.

Not only that, all three had criminal records, and it would likely be very difficult for them to get out after going in.

While Qin Tian and the others were giving statements, the future mother-in-law, as well as Su Yan and Tian Jiajia's parents, arrived at the police station one after another, waiting outside with Tang Xiuxia.

It wasn't until it was completely dark that Qin Tian and the others walked out of the interrogation room together.

The parents, who had been waiting anxiously, immediately stood up to greet them.

Tian Jiajia and Xia Nuannuan both immediately threw themselves into their parents' arms.

Both girls were encountering such a thing for the first time and were quite frightened.

"Two officers, thank you."

Tang Xiuxia thanked the two officers who walked out behind them.

The middle-aged officer waved his hand busily, smiling with some shame: "Please don't say that. We didn't manage to do anything. We are the ones who should be saying thank you. Those three are repeat offenders, and we have never been able to catch them. It's all thanks to your son that they were finally brought to justice today. Your son is truly amazing!"

"Yes, two thugs with knives, and he took them down empty-handed. Even we, who have received training, wouldn't dare say we have that kind of confidence."

The other officer smiled and agreed.

"However, young man, don't be so impulsive in the future."

The middle-aged officer said to Qin Tian with a smile.

"Understood, I was just too anxious. It won't happen again."

Qin Tian nodded with a smile.

"And you girls too, learn from your mistakes. Money and possessions, how can they be more important than your lives!"

The middle-aged officer said to the girls again.

Xia Nuannuan and the others hurriedly agreed, and Tian Jiajia showed a look of shame; it seemed she wouldn't be so reckless again in the future.

"Alright, it's fine now, everyone go back. There shouldn't be anything else to follow up on. If there is, we'll call you."

The middle-aged officer said with a face full of smiles.

After everyone thanked them again, they left the police station.

……

……

"Dad, I want to go to the hospital to see my classmate."

After walking out of the police station, Tian Jiajia looked at her father and said.

Tian Jiajia's father nodded and said: "We will go with you, buy some things, and thank him properly."

"Right, right, let's go together."

Her mother hurriedly agreed.

For some reason, thinking that her parents were going to meet Zhang Peng, Tian Jiajia felt inexplicably shy, but she still nodded and agreed.

"Nuannuan, you and your aunt go back first. I'll go see Zhang Peng."

Qin Tian said to Xia Nuannuan.

"I'll go too."

Xia Nuannuan said hurriedly.

"I'm enough. Don't go today, go back and rest first, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

Qin Tian persuaded with a smile.

Xia Nuannuan showed hesitation.

"Nuannuan, Xiao Qin is right. You just go back with me first. Tomorrow Mom will buy some things and accompany you to the hospital to thank your classmate."

Su Xia followed up.

"Alright then!"

Seeing her mother say so, Xia Nuannuan agreed to go back first.

Afterward, everyone said goodbye outside the police station.

Xia Nuannuan and Su Yan went back with their parents, while Qin Tian, along with his mother Tang Xiuxia and Tian Jiajia's family, came to the Yucheng First People's Hospital.

After consulting the front desk, everyone came to the ward upstairs where Zhang Peng was.

Xu Hao was sitting outside the ward, and seeing them come over, he hurriedly stood up to greet them.

"Hao Ge, how is Zhang Peng?"

Qin Tian asked.

"The doctor said it's a minor problem, the wound has been treated, and he's fine. His uncle and aunt have also arrived."

Xu Hao answered with a smile.

"That's good!"

Qin Tian let out a sigh of relief and said: "Hao Ge, thank you for your trouble today. Why don't you go back first!"

"That's fine, then I'll go back first. If there's anything you need help with, call me."

"Alright, thank you!"

"We're old friends, what are you saying!"

Xu Hao made a feigned angry expression, then said goodbye to the parents and left directly.

Qin Tian and the others entered the ward.

Zhang Peng was leaning against the head of the bed, his mother sitting beside him with a face full of heartache and lingering fear, complaining that her son didn't use his brain and acted impulsively.

"Uncle Zhang!"

Qin Tian looked at Zhang Peng's father, who was standing there with his arms crossed, and called out.

"Xiao Qin, you're here!"

Zhang Peng's father showed a slight smile upon seeing them.

"Brother Tian, Tian Jiajia!"

Zhang Peng also greeted them with a smile, and immediately saw Tian Jiajia's parents walking into the ward behind them, freezing for a moment.

"Zhang Peng, these are my parents!"

Tian Jiajia introduced her parents with a blush.

Her parents had bright smiles on their faces, carrying the fruits and drinks they bought on the way, hurriedly walking over to offer the condolence gifts and thanking Zhang Peng and his parents with faces full of gratitude.

Zhang Peng was completely stunned. After recovering, he subconsciously wanted to sit up straight, accidentally pulling his wound and grimacing.

After the two sets of parents got to know each other, they soon began to chat familiarly, while Zhang Peng and Tian Jiajia looked at each other with awkward expressions, exchanging silent glances.

Qin Tian and Tang Xiuxia stood behind, watching the excitement with great interest.

"What's the situation?"

Tang Xiuxia gently nudged her son's arm and asked in a low voice.

Clearly, she also saw some clues, and the fire of gossip in her heart was burning fiercely.

"Asking the obvious, just what you're thinking!"

Qin Tian said with a smile.

"Wow!"

Tang Xiuxia's eyes brightened slightly, her expression dawning: "No wonder Xiao Peng was so desperate, so that's how it is. Hero saves beauty and gets injured, both sets of parents meet, this familiar plot... it's settled!"

"Is it better than a TV show?"

"Definitely, it's a good thing I followed."

"As expected of you!"

"Likewise." ===== CHAPTER 325 =====
