Speaking of which, he was also trying to maintain Cheng Li's dignity, but unfortunately, Cheng Li didn't get it and thought the village chief was on Jiang Xue's side.
The village chief had Cheng Li's best interests at heart, but Cheng Li didn't appreciate it. She pointed to her still bruised face and said, "Village chief, she hasn't even settled the account of hitting me. Why should I apologize to her? Even if someone has to apologize, it should be her apologizing to me first."
Hearing Cheng Li's words, the village chief was so angry he couldn't speak. He never imagined that his efforts for Cheng Li and the village were not only unappreciated but also dredged up past incidents.
He wasn't unaware of her getting beaten. But he also heard that Jiang Xue hit Cheng Li because she urged Jiang Xue to divorce.
Marriage is a big deal. It's not just Jiang Xue; if he heard something like that, he would also smack the person across the face a few times.
