4. 31 to 40

Fans were stunned again.

[Shi-ge, where's the honor? The gold bars? can you stick to it a little bit?]

[Really, Shi-ge! I can watch this wardrobe change a hundred times!]

[Don't say that. Shi-ge likes little sister Xiangyi so much. Of course, he should please his future father-in-law a little bit. Maybe she doesn't want us to urge her to marry him. As soon his father-in-law agrees here, Sister Xiangyi might agree to his proposal.]

[But look, did Shi-ge forget about us? He's so nervous he doesn't know where to put his hands.]

The onlookers only watched the excitement, but the director of the program group was instantly excited.

"Change the title quickly, just change it. Lin Shiheng ran into Yun Xiangyi's father during a shoot."

Originally, the design of the program was plain and corny, and it was broadcasted directly without publicity. There was no advantage except for the guest, Lin Shiheng.

But now!

Yun Xiangyi's father came out of nowhere.

The home page of the live broadcast was immediately replaced with the title requested by the director, and many viewers who were not interested in an ordinary live variety show were attracted.

Before, Lin Shiheng's hand-torn media heat fell and his love affair with Yun Xiangyi broke out. But now he ran into Yun Xiangyi's father. Few people would miss such hot gossip.

Father Yun doesn't know that his actions were being watched by tens of millions or even more viewers. He was left speechless by Lin Shiheng's costume change. He stood still and didn't know what to do next.

At this time, Lin Shiheng stood up enthusiastically, "please sit, please sit."

After he sat down hesitantly, he felt a little remorseful. He was not sure if Yun Xiangyi had spoken ill of them to Lin Shiheng. When he saw the excitement and even a trace of flattery on Lin Shiheng's face, his heart settled down.

It seems that Lin Shiheng doesn't know what happened, and to Yun Xiangyi, he has always said that he had no choice. At that time, she was only a teenager. Even now, she was locked up in a mental hospital for ten years and did not go to school. Looks like her intelligence had declined a lot compared to ordinary people.

During this period of time, Father Yun has been searching for news of Lin Shiheng. He naturally knows how obsessed the man is with his adopted daughter. Sports cars worth tens of millions were bought and sent directly to Yun Xiangyi.

That's tens of millions! Father Yun, who had no worries about food and clothing, couldn't sleep well at the thought of such a large amount of money, not to mention he who was in urgent need of money right now.

And this uneasiness gradually dissipated when he saw the undisguised flattery on Lin Shiheng's handsome face.

Yes, the star is flattering himself…

If he wants to marry Yun Xiangyi, he has to please himself as her father.

So, it should be easy to talk to him.

Father Yun looked around and found that it was so hot that there was no one around the barbecue stand except for the boss who was standing further away.

In other words, no one would know what he said to Lin Shiheng.

He looked relaxed.

Of course, although he has already decided to ask, Father Yun wouldn't borrow money with the first words from his mouth, but the loan sharks were pressing for it now, and the amount would skyrocket after only a few days.

After thinking about it, Father Yun picked up a topic and asked, "how are you getting along with Xiangyi now?"

"Very good, very good."

Lin Shiheng blinked nervously, and his hand on the table tapped subconsciously. His voice replied hurriedly, "We have a very good relationship. Xiangyi is filming a show now. Otherwise, we would have come together today."

The bullet screen on the hidden mobile phone screen behind the newspaper exploded in an instant.

[Haha, Shi-ge, can your expression be a little more stupid? Haha]

[It's the natural law of heaven! Shi-ge, it's your turn today, hahahaha.]

[I see that Shi-ge really forgot about us. Since Sister Xiangyi's father came, his eyes have been fixed on him, and he hasn't given us a single look.]

[I didn't expect that there are times when Lin Shiheng would be so nervous. No, I have to capture a screenshot to make an emoji package! Hahaha]

[Above, please share it when it's done!]

Unlike fans who just want to shout yoooooo! Father Yun frowned imperceptibly when he heard 'shooting'.

He doesn't like these so-called stars. In his impression, the entertainment circle is a messy place. Today a male star cheats and a female star divorces tomorrow. Anyway, it is not a decent place.

Just as Lin Shiheng finished speaking nervously, he then hurriedly and carefully pushed the mutton kebabs he had just ordered to Father Yun.

"Uncle, would you like to eat this freshly baked kebabs?"

The barrage showed another group of 666666.

(TNote: 66666 = a row of thumbs up.)

Just now, when the assistant came to deliver a coat, he wanted to eat some, he said that he would never share the delicious food with someone else and asked him to buy some separately.

How long did it take him to share it? Sima Zhao's heart to curry favor with his father-in-law was known to everyone.

(Sima Zhao = Chinese military general, politician, and regent of a state during the Three Kingdoms period of China. Some say he needed support from his father in law; Wang Su, who entreated Cao Mao to allow Sima Zhao to succeed Sima Shi as regent of Wei. Please seek historical records for more detailed facts.)

[Do you need us to help you?]

[Look at Shi-ge's cautious look. When did he ever look like this? He's making me laugh to death, hahaha.]

[Look at his hands. His beautiful hands are shaking like having Parkinson's. Oh, my God, Shi-ge must be so nervous.]

[He was on the air. Shi-ge forgot us when he nervously met his father-in-law.]

Father Yun never liked to eat these kinds of things. Seeing Lin Shiheng giving away his treasured things, he suddenly wanted to see how far he would go for Yun Xiangyi.

If anything, just ask for money today.

If he is impatient with 'Yun Xiangyi's father', then plan slowly.

Thinking in this way, he chuckled and said, "I don't like this kind of greasy food, you can eat it."

Sure enough, Lin Shiheng did not feel unhappy, but pushed the mutton kebabs that had just been pushed, to the side, with a serious face.

"In fact, I don't usually eat such greasy food, but there's nothing else delicious on this beach."

[That's a lie. You just ate so much!]

[Find out where the man who just ate and boasted until I was drooling, went!]

[Could you help me find Lin Shiheng, please? I'm have his face, but he doesn't want it.]

As the audience watched Lin Shiheng make a joke of himself in order to please his father-in-law, Father Yun completely settled down.

He went on to ask, "do you have plans for the future?"

"Yes, there is."

As soon as the handsome man's eyes lit up in on screen, he was obviously well prepared, and then came a series of sentences. "I want to marry Xiangyi as soon as possible, and then help her move forward in her career and win an award within five years. It would be great if she could be on the Movie Queen list. Uncle, I'm telling you, Xiangyi is full of talent."

Father Yun did not quite understand, but felt like he was in a haze. He interrupted Lin Shiheng, who was constantly planning for the future. "if you have a child, and Xiangyi continues to act, who will take care of the child?"

When Lin Shiheng spoke, his cheeky face showed a little shyness.

"As for a child, of course I would take care of the child."

"We should only have one child. After all, it's a bad experience for a woman to have a baby. Uncle, you can rest assured that I am not a person who ignores his family just for the sake of his career. Although I will hire a cleaning aunt and a babysitter, but I will still save more time to accompany."

Father Yun moved his eyes. "I remember she was very busy at work and was often away from home, right?"

"If she's busy with her career, won't you miss her?"

Speaking of this, Lin Shiheng blushed again, and coughed. He looked like a pure boy and said, "of course. although I want to keep Xiangyi glued to me all the time, this is what she wants. As a boyfriend, I should support her."

[Shit, this conversation unexpectedly jumped to Little Idol! Shi-ge, what are you trying to do with that shy look on your face?]

[Wu wu wu wu, I envy Sister Xiangyi having has such a Shiheng as her boyfriend. I didn't want to have another baby after giving birth to my eldest son. My husband talked to me about having another one, which would make it lively. Mother-in-law had a bad look on her face. If you want to have a lively life, your feelings will suffer when your pregnant for 10 months. He is not the one who would suffer from pain when giving birth!]

[The sister above of me is so pitiful. I must stick to my position. Although I also gave birth to my second son, it was because I wanted it. If I didn't want it, I wouldn't have had him.]

[Don't change the subject everyone. You're going to miss Shi-ge's shyness for the first time in a thousand years. Ah ah ah…]

[Lin Shiheng's words are beautiful. No matter the situation, as long as he really loves his daughter, the father would be influenced by him.]

However, Father Yun had no fatherly love for his adopted daughter. He only thought of the things Lin Shiheng bought. If all the money is earned by his hard work, it would be stupid to work hard for the family and not earn anything.

And the most important thing is that he plans for Lin Shiheng to marry Yun Xiangyi, then both parties will become serious relatives. If a woman works outside, how can a husband accept it?

Looking at Lin Shiheng like this, he must like Yun Xiangyi very much. If he, as a father, came forward to make Yun Xiangyi come home, get married and be a housewife, he surely would be very happy.

It would be even easier to talk about the money.

Thinking in this way, he said, "Don't bother. I'll tell Xiangyi to quit showbiz when she gets married."

On screen, the smile on Lin Shiheng's face faded a little. "What do you mean?"

Father Yun looked normal, and there was even some benevolent aura in his eyes. "Xiangyi is a girl and isn't suitable for this kind of public performing. When you get married, I'll let her take care of you at home. Or, like her mother, see if she could get a teaching certificate to be a teacher so she could take care of the children."

The fans who were happily waiting for sweets, were stunned.

[Is this her real father?]

[What does that mean? What's wrong with being a girl?]

[Come on, it's been a few years, it's not ancient times. How can you not show up in public when you're a star?]

[Comment above, it seems that it's not biological. When Sister Xiangyi mental illness was exposed at that time, she once posted a long blog post. I remember it said that she was picked up by her own brother for treatment, and her surname was also different. Is this her stepfather?]

Lin Shiheng fans, mostly girls, were so sensitive to the remark that it exploded almost as soon as Father Yun opened his mouth, and noise came up in the harmonious barrage.

[It's said that Father Yun did it for the good of Yun Xiangyi. After all, her mental state is generally recognized as bad.]

[It's also said that Father Yun is completely feudal. What kind of era is it now? To still think of artists as public performers.]

The director who was just happy about the chance encounter: "…"

It's not that he doesn't know anything. He knows Lin Shiheng's identity very well. In this case, there might be a possibility of interrupting this live broadcast.

He can't bear it wu wu wu.

Why did he have to say that?

The director called and asked dejectedly whether to interrupt the live broadcast. Unexpectedly, the other end told him to keep on broadcasting without interruption.

Oh, my God, it's changed!

When the director joyfully leaned to the screen to watch, Lin Shiheng, who had been courting Father Yun in every way, was not as enthusiastic as before. He smiled, looking serious with a hint of anger at the same time.

"As far as I know, your little girl is preparing to go abroad."

"You made all kinds of plans for your youngest daughter, and you would ask Xiangyi, who already had a career of her own, to give up her career and become a housewife?"

The natural look on Father Yun's face withdrew a little.

If Lin Shiheng was rude to him as soon as he met him just now, and he still has some reluctance in his heart. But now, after feeling his flattery, and the change of his expression at this moment, he would also have some anger in his heart.

Is it not for his own good? Really un-appreciative of people's goodwill. Also, this attitude towards an elder; The entertainment industry is completely a mess indeed.

The atmosphere between the two men became tense, and the barrage, which had just been quarrelling, quieted down to see how this would end.

Lin Shiheng is a junior, and looking at the way he fawned before, he should be bowing his head first.

Sure enough, a minute later, the young man in the camera was the first to stand up. Although the smile on his face was not as warm as before, it was also very polite.

"I'm sorry, Uncle. No matter what happens to Xiangyi and me in the future, I won't recommend taking her, who is on the rise, out of the entertainment industry. It's nice to meet you today. I have work to do. I'll tell you what… Xiangyi will be back from the shoot in five months, and we'll officially meet at that time."

No matter from which aspect, these remarks were very conciliatory and modest. It's obvious that Lin Shiheng, who has always been arrogant, is going to put up with it for the sake of Yun Xiangyi this time.

[Wu wu wu wu, Shi-ge! Well done. That's what it's all about!]

[Poor Xiangyi, having such a father. It's a good thing Shi-ge is reliable.]

[Wait, Shi-ge, you forgot about us. Come back and take us with you!]

Just when the fans were silent, Father Yun, who was still sitting in the screen, looked at Lin Shiheng's back, his eyes flashed in panic, and hurriedly shouted, "wait a minute!"

In five months? His debt can't wait that long!

Lin Shiheng turned to the 'Uncle' with an interrogative look on his face.

Father Yun didn't look very good. After confirming that there was no one around, he asked Lin Shiheng, who came back, "can you lend me some money?"

"Lend money?"

On screen, a man with a perfect face frowned, "how much do you want to borrow?"

Father Yun said that the amount of debt he owed now. "800,000 yuan."

[The old man easily said 800,000. Even if it was his son-in-law, and no matter how much Shi-ge likes Xiangyi, they are not married yet!]

[Shit! 800,000. Does he know what he's talking about?]

[Shi-ge, you mustn't say yes. I don't think it's normal. This might be a con-man. How could a person borrow so much money from his daughter's boyfriend?!]

Of course, Lin Shiheng would not say yes. He just frowned and asked, "Uncle, you have just told me about your family, you shouldn't be short of money right now. What are you going to do with 800,000 yuan?"

How can Father Yun directly say that he lost a bet and had to pay his debts. He vaguely said, "I have use for it."

"With such a large sum of money. 800,000 yuan. You should at least make it clear where it is going to be spent."

Lin Shiheng suddenly realized, "is it really expensive to go abroad? Is it for the sake of your youngest daughter's going abroad?"

Father Yun was stunned and thought this was a good reason, and nodded hurriedly. "Yes, just for my family to go abroad. Shiheng, you are a good boy, and I agree with your marriage with Xiangyi. I am in urgent need of this money. Please lend it to me first."

"I can take out the money, but if you come to borrow money from me, does Xiangyi know?"

Father Yun looked so embarrassed that she didn't know. Since Yun Xiangyi was picked up by Zhao Xingguang, they haven't contacted her at all.

"She doesn't know. I don't want her to be burdened."

Seeing Lin Shiheng still frowning, he looked like he really didn't want to say yes, and he was also a little anxious when he could have kept calm.

This is his last hope.

If the money is not paid back, even if the family's house and car are sold, it will only be enough to pay it back, and their basic living standards would suffer a decline.

At the mention of Yun Xiangyi, Lin Shiheng's expression softened a little.

"Okay, write an IOU and state the time of return, and I'll transfer the money to your account."

(TNote: For non-native English speakers reading here: an IOU is a signed document acknowledging a debt (more personal, non-'formal business' related dealings.) I.O.U. representing the pronunciation of I owe you.)

Father Yun froze.

"Write an IOU?"

Lin Shiheng's brows frowned more and more. "Uncle, although I believe in your character. 800,000 is not a small sum after all."

"And I can assure you that I will destroy the IOU or give it to you as soon as you pay it back."

Father Yun didn't even think about paying it back.

How can someone who can buy some sports car worth tens of millions and give it away, care about 800,000 yuan?

In his hypothesis, as soon as he asked to borrow money, Lin Shiheng would immediately agree to it and would say that he didn't need to pay it back.

This sounds shameless, but these days, he watched Lin Shiheng buy this today and buy that the next day. How can such a rich person care about 800,000 yuan?

He looked around again, confirmed that no one was there, and finally said thoroughly, "Shiheng, can I not write an IOU, you are so rich, do you still care about the 800,000 yuan?"

On screen, Lin Shiheng's face went blank for a few seconds, he was obviously shocked by this remark.

The barrage sent by the audience are all that was left.

[Really shameless!]

[I can see that, Xiangyi's father is the best at it, right?]

[The purpose of writing an IOU is to urge the other party to pay back the money. If you don't write an IOU, you want to borrow it and not pay it back?!]

There was an angry look on Lin Shiheng's face, but he seemed to be concerned about the elder status of Father Yun, trying to keep calm.

"Uncle, I know that Xiangyi was adopted by you, but at least she called your Father. You are borrowing money from me like this and refused to write an IOU. I really can't believe that you have any feelings for her. I'm sorry. Although I'm Xiangyi's boyfriend, I also know the law. I won't lend it if you won't write an IOU."

Father Yun's face altered from green and white. "Can I write an IOU and ask Xiangyi to pay back the money?"

[This is no father, it's a vampire!]

[I understand. An adopted daughter is not a daughter. Didn't you hear that he borrowed money to get his youngest daughter to go abroad? The youngest daughter is biological, isn't she?]

Lin Shiheng's expression was no longer angry, but furious.

Father Yun didn't notice his look, thinking about the news that Lin Shiheng was trying to please his adopted daughter these days, still saying, "well, you've been proposing online, and Xiangyi hasn't said yes, right? You lend me the money, and I'll ask her to marry you, all right?"

"No!"

Lin Shiheng grabbed the gold glasses he used to pretend to be gentle and threw them on the ground, his handsome face brimming with anger. "Are you selling your daughter? No matter how much I like Xiangyi, she will never be forced to say yes to me."

"Don't think that I don't know anything, you ignore her when you had your own daughter. She was locked up by you in a mental hospital for ten years. She only remembers you foolishly. That's why I didn't care. I respect her. That's why I respect you, not because the useless father you are, okay?"

"Xiangyi is an adult. She has the right to choose. I will tell her what happened today and let her choose."

Father Yun was startled by his sudden anger and how he scolded him right to his face. Seeing that he was leaving again, he was angry and blurted out, "I am Yun Xiangyi's father, and legally she has to support me."

"If you don't give me money today, I'll ask Yun Xiangyi for it right away. If she doesn't give it, I'll go to a reporter and tell people all over the world that she is an ungrateful bitch who has seduced people since she was a child."

Lin Shiheng's back, unbelievably slowly turned, "you could even say such slanderous words?"

"Do you know that in for our profession, fame is everything? If you say something like that, Xiangyi's whole life will be ruined!"

"Even if she is not related by blood, she is still your daughter! Do you have a conscience to do so?"

[I feel like my Shi-ge is going to get furious.]

[I've never seen Shi-ge so angry. He must like Xiangyi very much.]

[Shit, is this still human?! How unlucky for Yun Xiangyi, to be adopted by such a person…]

[This can't be a TV show, right? How can there be such scum?]

Father Yun did not know that everything he had done was being broadcasted live, and his heart was beating violently.

He knew that Lin Shiheng's fondness for Yun Xiangyi, would definitely be threatened.

In that case, this matter is much easier to handle.

He wiped a sweat from his head and thought of nothing else. "Give me 800,000, or I'll go to the reporters right now."

"I am Yun Xiangyi's father, and people would believe what I say."

"Either her reputation is ruined, or you give me the money. You choose!"

Lin Shiheng's heart was covered with anger, even his lips were a little white, and his hands trembled. He pointed at Father Yun and scolded, "you're worse than a pig or a dog!"

The other hand, however, pressed the signal button on his collar.

The assistant, who had been hiding in the distance looking at the camera, rushed over when he received the signal and held Lin Shiheng "Lin-ge, Lin-ge, are you all right?"

As he said so, he quickly took out his cell phone and called, "Sorry, there's been an accident. Please stop filming Lin Shiheng. Stop now!"

The director, who had been holding his heart and looking at the camera, exhaled, "stop the cameras on Lin Shiheng's side!"

The assistant hurriedly turned off the cell phone hidden behind the newspaper, "Lin-ge, are you, all right? do you want to go to the hospital?"

Lin Shiheng stood up and waved, took a dark remote out of his pocket and pressed it.

The assistant: "Signal jammer? Shi-ge, why do you have this?"

"Ah, just in case."

Lin Shiheng, who looked like he was about to be suffocated, straightened his hair. He squatted down to pick up the gold wire glasses that he had threw, and blew the sand off. Then he slowly put it back on his face.

The assistant: "Brother…"

Don't flatter yourself at a time like this!

Lin Shiheng relaxed and threw the remote control into the hands of his assistant.

Watching him catch it in a hurry, he whistled to the dazed and uneasy Father Yun, and his slender and good-looking eyebrows proudly lifted, "what do you think? I'm a good actor, aren't I?"

Father Yun choked on his words and worked hard for a while before he could utter the words "acting?"

"Mm-hmm."

Lin Shiheng spoke, leaning weakly against his assistant who was staring at everything, looking at him with a smile. "I'm sorry to trouble you today. You said something from the bottom of your heart, but there's one thing that goes against it."

"The whole world knows what kind of person I am, and now you do too."

"I do mean every word."

"I like Xiangyi, so I respect her and will protect her."

The assistant was completely kept in the dark and thought that Lin Shiheng brought himself here to save the scene. "Lin, Lin-ge…"

"Let's go."

Lin Shiheng urged, "we have to go back, go back and watch a good show."

"Ah, yes, yes."

The two helped each other walk and they left the beach.

In the same place, only Father Yun stood in a panic, as if he knew something but seemed to know nothing.

He walked back blankly, and as soon as he got on the road, a taxi stopped in front of him, the door opened, and Yun Weiwei quickly came out of the car with an anxious expression on her face.

"Dad, what's the matter with you?! How could you say that? It was broadcast live! Now everyone knows that you threatened Lin Shiheng with Yun Xiangyi for money. Just now my classmate called me and asked me if you were my father. How could you do that?!"

Father Yun opened his eyes wide in shock. "What live broadcast?"

Yun Weiwei really cried out and collapsed while crying, "Lin Shiheng, he's doing a variety show! What you just said was broadcast live!"

"I–I didn't know. He didn't tell me…"

Father Yun's words came to a sudden pause. Lin Shiheng just said he was acting, that is to say, he was acting all that time.

Ah! He deliberately didn't tell himself that he was on the air.

But it doesn't make sense. He came here on the spur of the moment. How could Lin Shiheng know? Impossible!

Yun Weiwei was still crying, "I wanted to call you and tell you after I found out about the live broadcast, but your phone had been turned off. Dad, what's the matter with you?! Now everyone is scolding you. Why did you turn it off, why now of all times?!"

Beep beep!

A car drove slowly beside them, and honked its horn. Father Yun looked over subconsciously and found that it was a cooperate car.

The window rolled down slowly, revealing Lin Shiheng's handsome and perfect face.

He was still wearing a flamboyant floral shirt and whistled to Father Yun, who looked over at him. In such an instant, the car had already moved forward.

Father Yun only stood stiff, staring blankly at the hand exposed in the window.

The hand was long and white, with distinct bones, and it was a gesture of good-bye to him.

Bye, you're out…

The live broadcast event had a great impact on the Yun family, and the first hot search directly showed Yun Xiangyi's father borrowing money from Lin Shiheng.

The video is long, but thoughtful netizens posted pictures of Father Yun's changing face, and words on the comments section for passers-by who didn't know the truth and didn't have the patience to watch the full video.

From the beginning, he didn't want the girl working in public as a celebrity, and quit the entertainment industry after getting married. She should be at ease and raise children at home. But at the end, in order to borrow money, he directly threatened Yun Xiangyi's boyfriend, telling the media that Yun Xiangyi was 'a seductive little girl.'

Every media had put quotation marks on this passage, and no one believed that such a person, who can completely ignore the image of his daughter for money, is telling the truth. He's just making it up for money.

It's not that Father Yun didn't want to come forward and say that his adopted daughter seduced her grandfather, but he was stopped by his daughter and his wife.

At this point, no one would believe what he said except Father Yun himself.

The more he says it, the more he would make netizens think that he, this disgusting man, could make up any kind of lie.

The Internet is powerful, and Father Yun's family background and work résumé have been picked out one by one.

Lin Shiheng fans were the fiercest. Who gave this guy the gals to threaten their family's idol? Thinking about their idol's distressed expression and speech.

Fans were reluctant to stop until Lin Shiheng's official blog came forward and said that everyone should not condone cyber bullying.

Although they always laughed that they idol could go against heaven and earth, but when he was threatened he couldn't to say a word, they loved him even more dearly.

And also found the reason why their idol became an empty canon, automatically and spontaneously.

Everyone has an inverse scale, and the inverse scale of their idol is Yun Xiangyi.

[He must be furious.]

[Yeah.]

[Idol doesn't want us to spread cyber bullying, so if we can't cyber bully, we should look for evidence.]

Someone intercepted the video of that day, listened to the words, word by word, and finally analyzed a long list to share with netizens.

Little Sister Xiangyi is an adopted daughter.

The disgusting guy threatened our idol for money, in order to pay for his own daughter to go abroad.

Yun Xiangyi was sent to a mental hospital by her adoptive parents for ten years.

The rest are some things that need to be carefully investigated, but this third item has been studied by many netizens according to the long blog post from Yun Xiangyi that day.

Yun Xiangyi was diagnosed with a tendency to commit suicide, probably depression. The diagnosis didn't even confirm what it was, but they kept her in a mental hospital for ten years.

And if the mental hospital hadn't been found to have a problem, and being shut down– Yun Xiangyi might still be locked up inside.

From her teens to her twenties.

At that time, people only felt distressed when they read the long blog post; But now with such an adoptive father, it's full of chilling facts and conspiracy theories.

That decade can be said to be the most wanton and happy time for a girl, but Yun Xiangyi spent it in a mental hospital!

Someone found the cleaner who used to work in a mental hospital. She said she had some impression of Yun Xiangyi. During the day, most of the patients were sleeping. In the evening, most people would wake up noisily. Yun Xiangyi would wake up, but quietly hugged her legs and huddled in the corner without saying a word.

As far as she can remember, no one has ever visited Yun Xiangyi.

What else is there to say now?

The matter is very simple and clear.

When you needed a child, you went to an orphanage for adoption. When you have a child of your own, the adopted daughter became useless. You threw her into a mental hospital!

As for whether there was any abuse of patients in this mental hospital, the illness of the adopted daughter was not so serious at all, but it wasn't within the scope of their consideration at all.

If most of the people who attacked Father Yun at first were only fans of Lin Shiheng and Yun Xiangyi, then after the incident was revealed, he was spurned by the whole network.

Yun Xiangyi knew about when she was at a shooting.

Lin Shiheng flew in directly to find her, and under the eyes of other people's curiosity or sympathy, the two asked for leave from the director and went outside together.

Yun Xiangyi looked at Father Yun's face in the video again and again, looking at the computer again and again. Her eyes were still and calm.

"Disappointed?"

Lin Shiheng stood behind her, massaging her shoulders with neither light nor heavy hands.

Yun Xiangyi nodded and whispered, "I thought they just hated me when I was sick."

But it turns out that even if she was a normal person, she will still be traded off as a bargaining chip.

They sacrificed her as an adopted daughter to support their own daughter.

Yun Xiangyi was very confused, obviously when she was a child, she was also held by this man, tutored by him with homework, and was called a good daughter by him.

How can it change so fast?

The girl sitting in front of the computer looked up and looked at the lover behind her. "Is blood really that important?"

She is not related by blood, so no matter how well-behaved and flattering she is, she still couldn't be regarded as family?

"I don't know."

Lin Shiheng picked up his eyebrows. "He can abandon his adopted daughter today and his own daughter tomorrow. For this kind of person, the most important person is always himself."

"Let me show you a magic trick."

Yun Xiangyi's eyes faded from sadness to curiosity about "What?"

"People can greatly change."

The man behind her snapped his fingers. "Let's see how bad a person who is good in everyone's eyes is."

When there was hustle and bustle on the Internet, someone suddenly revealed something.

[I was in the same class as Yun Xiangyi in junior high school. I knew some inside stories. She did very well in class at that time, but she dressed poorly. How bad was it? Even though everyone was wearing school uniforms at that time, their personal clothes were worn inside. Yun Xiangyi's trousers would be much shorter than the school uniforms, and hers were really washed to the degree of whitening. Anyway, since we were in the same class, Yun Xiangyi had worn those clothes back and forth. She has never changed to a new one.

At that time, it was a boarding school. During the holidays, most of the students had parents to pick them up. After all, they couldn't carry too many bags. Yun Xiangyi was never picked up, and she always carried it herself. What impressed me the most was that she was very thrifty in eating. To what extent did she save? The school has a snack bar. When we have money, we always want to buy snacks, and our parents gave us money once a month. So, at the end of the month, she only ate steamed buns miserably, and asked to borrow money for food everywhere. But no one ever went to Yun Xiangyi to borrow money, because she ate steamed buns at noon and evening, and bought a la carte at noon from the beginning of the month to the end of the month. At night, she really only ate steamed buns, it was so miserable. Because of these, some people in the school still said that she was an orphan. And if you ask me, no orphans could come to our school. Nobody was as miserable as Yun Xiangyi. After all, in our country orphans still have various policies to subsidize them.

Her suicide was very serious, and almost half the class knew why she tried to commit suicide. At that time, several girls in the class next door were in a small group, being arrogant every day, and they were not allowed to go out of school and had no way to play. Yun Xiangyi was their toy. I also read her blog post. Locking people in the toilet was a common thing, but it's useless to talk to the teacher. The bullying would only get worse, tearing papers and splashing cold water on her quilt. Anyway, there were all kinds of ways to bully and torture people. At that time, I heard that the leader of that small group's father, was a very powerful cadre, and he knew our headmaster. It was too late for everyone to avoid, let alone help her fight the grievances. Yun Xiangyi's grades began to decline at that time, and she became more and more silent. Suddenly, one day, we heard that she was going to commit suicide on the roof and was stopped by the teacher.

At that time, her father, that is– the adoptive father, came to the school. We were all shocked. After all, we always thought that she did not have a father, but after the shock, we were a little happy. We thought that the small group was definitely going to be punished. After all, we knew why Yun Xiangyi jumped from the building. As a result, nothing happened. Yun Xiangyi was taken away and never came to school again. The small group was still that small group. They were arrogant until graduation.

And then the turning point came.

I went to normal school. After graduating from college, I became a trainee teacher. My family helped find connections and I went directly to teach in high school. In that high school, I saw the leader of the small group at that time. She often came to visit a student in the school. The student's name was Yun XX. At that time, I just thought it was a coincidence. As soon as this happened, I knew that Yun XX was the biological daughter of the garbage adoptive father. Upon further inquiry, the relationship between the two families were extremely close. The father of the leader of this small group also promoted this trash adoptive father.]

Netizens blew up again.

Zhao Xingguang looked at the various comments under her Weibo, angry about his sister's grievances, and couldn't help but call and ask Lin Shiheng about it.

"This Weibo post wouldn't be seen by anyone, will it?"

"What are you looking at?" Lin Shiheng freed up one hand to look at the phone, and the other continued to massage Yun Xiangyi. "Do you think I found this person? Am I that stupid? It's all revelation. Of course, the whistleblower is real."

Zhao Xingguang was stunned. "Won't she expose you?"

"Expose?"

The man on the phone chuckled. "I just arranged for a few people to listen to the news every day and to tell her about the relationship between the two families by gossiping. Although she didn't know I was behind it, she was bullied by that small group at the beginning. How could she pass on such a good opportunity?"

So, Lin Shiheng is borrowing a knife, and the borrowed knife had no idea that he was the mastermind behind her back.

"But what if she doesn't? You can't just expect things to happen like a god."

"Well. There was a plan." Lin Shiheng changed his mobile phone "Yes, there was plan B. If she only listens to the hustle and bustle, she will happen to meet an old classmate she doesn't, know but knows her, the next day. The old classmate will tell her that the love letter she wrote in junior high school, that was handed over to a teacher, was done so by the small group's leader."

Zhao Xingguang thought deeply.

"Did that person really do it?"

"How do I know? It's all a thing of the past. It was nice to find out that she was forced to read this love letter in public."

"It doesn't matter who it is, what matters is who the whistleblower thinks it is."

(TNote: I'll say it again… mom, I'm in love with the devil! XD)

Zhao Xingguang was shocked by the sinister degree of this guy, and sincerely exclaimed, "you are so shady!"

"Oh, I'm flattered. We are all family here, what's the point of boasting and praising?"

Zhao Xingguang: "…"

He unexpectedly began to sympathize with Lin Shiheng's opponents. If he was targeted by such a dirty guy, he would have been playing dead.

Thinking, he told her: "Don't tell Xiangyi, that she is timid and it might frighten her."

"It's too late."

Lin Shiheng lowered his eyes and smiled softly at Yun Xiangyi, who looked sideways at him. "Xiangyi is right next to me."

"Why are you beside her? Isn't Xiangyi filming? Lin Shiheng, I warn you, you are not allowed to do anything until you get married, do you hear me?"

click…

Zhao Xingguang: "…"

Ah, ah! Crazy! How can this guy be so cheeky?

By the way, Lin Shiheng has just said so much. He won't frighten Xiangyi again, will he?

Yun Xiangyi was not frightened at all, but her eyes sparkled and looked at the man standing behind her with some admiration. "Shiheng, how are you be so smart? "

Lin Shiheng raised his eyebrows proudly. "I have a smarter move."

"Wait and see. I'll take revenge for you one by one."

A train in the railway station stopped.

An old man got out of the car with his luggage on his back and hurried out of the station entrance.

He must not let his son's reputation be ruined.

His daughter-in-law said that no one believed what his son said. At his age, someone would believe him!

It was more than 12 in the evening when the Old Man Yun got off the train. He was calling his daughter-in-law when he was on the train, but her phone was turned off all the time.

He didn't think about how many people would call his daughter-in-law about his son when this happened. He didn't expect that, so he didn't tell them that he was coming here. He only knew that after receiving the news, he came in a hurry to help his son and daughter-in-law, and he was in a bad mood after sitting in the train car for so long.

Thinking that when it came time, he would scold his daughter-in-law. Old Man Yun walked to the side of the road with his luggage. The railway station is still a long way from Yun's family home. He was naturally reluctant to take a taxi directly there, so he might as well spend dozens of yuan to stay in a hotel near here for one night.

After all, it was too early in the morning, although there weren't many people in the railway station. Grandpa Yun has stayed in a hotel here before, and he knows that the more remote the place is, the cheaper it is, so he was bent on walking towards the side where there was no light.

As a result, as soon as he came to an empty road, he saw a pair of long legs hanging from a bench in front of him.

Grandpa Yun stopped immediately.

Although he was old, his eyes, legs and feet were good, and there was a little dim light on the other side of the bench, and the distance was not very far. So, it was clear that the girl sleeping on the bench was beautiful and flushing. Although her short skirt covered the parts that should be covered, a pair of long and beautiful white legs seemed to carry temptation. The attracted eyes could not help but go up, the girl closed her eyes tightly as if she was lethargic.

Grandpa Yun swallowed.

Although he can no longer 'do it', he didn't change his mind, but he was not very bold. Coupled with his old age, he often only dared to think about it.

Over the years, Grandpa Yun coveted a lot of girls, he didn't dare to do it, but many little girls were taken advantage of by him as an elder; But didn't dare to go too far. After all, parents looked at their children more and more closely these days, and they could find out with just a bit of gossip.

In the eyes of many people, Grandpa Yun loved his deceased wife dearly and never looked for another after his wife died, but they didn't know that the truth was that he wanted face and didn't want people to know that he has failed to do so.

It's also because of face-saving; He didn't dare do much to those young girls he liked. Even if it was too suffocating, he had to pretend that nothing had happened.

What Grandpa Yun misses most is Yun Xiangyi, his unrelated 'granddaughter', who lived with him. He knew his son, and his son trusted him more than this adopted granddaughter did. In addition, Yun Xiangyi was too young and was taught nothing but to study, and he didn't take it to 'the end', there was definitely no risk.

He just didn't expect that this matter was noticed by the meddling teacher. After Yun Xiangyi was sent away, it was hard for Grandpa Yun to make his son let her live with him again after for so many years.

When he knew that Yun Xiangyi was crazy, he was excited and hurriedly asked his son and daughter-in-law to send Yun Xiangyi back to his hometown and let him take care of her as a 'magnanimous grandfather', who did not care about the mistakes of the younger generation.

With a crazy woman, and the guardian was still his own son, he can do anything.

But his daughter-in-law refused, which made the old man a little dissatisfied.

After knowing what had happened to his son, this dissatisfaction reached its climax. If his daughter-in-law had listened to him and sent Yun Xiangyi back to his hometown, how could something happen to his son?

This was a special time. Although the old man looked at the beautiful woman on the bench and dared not do anything, he pulled his luggage and was about to leave. As a result, a man suddenly hurried over from the other side. He went straight to the bench and bowed his head to check the condition of the woman.

From the old man's point of view, he had his back to him, but his hands were moving. He might be touching the girl.

He paused again, looking straight at the man leaning over and kissing the girl again, the sleepy girl didn't even move. The man kissed for a while, touched her forehead, turned and hurried away.

If just now Grandpa Yun was still a lecherous coward, then this man's behavior just gave him gals and desire for more.

Someone else has done it. Why can't he do it?

Grandpa Yun, who had been anxious to calm down after knowing his son's accident, swallowed again and dragged his suitcase to the edge of the bench. He looked around, but there was no one around. He nervously stretched out his wrinkled hand and landed on the sleeping girl's chest.

(TNote: oh god… typing this out gives me the shivers, damn creep… I know it's fictional, but I'm still disgusted.)

He moved carefully, and the girl was still closing her eyes without any reaction.

Seeing this, Grandpa Yun was completely relieved.

Also, just now, the man kissed her and she didn't respond. How could she wake up with only a touch?

Thinking of this, he relaxed a little, looked around again, and began to move his hands around the girl presumptuously. Gradually, he looked more and more addicted, simply leaned over, and pressed himself on the girl.

Before there was any more action, the girl who had been closing her eyes suddenly opened her eyes.

"Ah!"

"Help! there's a pervert!"

When the scream sounded, the old man's mind went blank and he got up in a panic to run. As a result, before he could run far, he saw the man who had just kissed the girl coming from the other side with a bottle of water in his hand. When he heard the scream, he rushed directly at the old man and punched him.

Grandpa Yun was old, he got a sharp pain in his stomach. Clutching his stomach and crying intermittently, the man still didn't let him go, cursing him and bending down to beat him with his fist, while imperceptibly attacking his acupoint, the old man almost fainted because of the pain.

"What's going on?"

"What are you doing in front of me?"

Two men in uniforms ran over when they heard screams in the distance and immediately yelled at the scene.

The girl on the bench sat up, holding the smooth shoulders exposed by the loss of shoulder straps in one side, crying so hard that she was out of breath.

"Pervert! That old man is a pervert!"

"He tried to molest me!"

As soon as the two men heard this, they immediately looked serious, looked at each other and stopped the man who was still beating Grandpa Yun.

So, Old Man Yun spent the night at the public security station right after he got off the train.

He trembled with pain and felt like he was almost dying. As soon as he arrived at the public security station, he lay on the table and kept grunting and shouting in pain.

The man on duty at the public security station was startled by his painful appearance, fearing that something would happen to the not so young pervert in the public security station. So, he hurriedly sent the man to the hospital that night.

As a result, as soon as the doctor examined, except for the serious wound on the stomach, the rest his body was just a little red.

All of a sudden, the two officers who were in charge of sending him looked at him wrongly. The girl who had been molested also came to the hospital, saying that the perverted old man did something to her, she didn't know what, and she was so dizzy that she couldn't get up.

She cried so much that she could not even speak coherently, but she could say a couple of sentences when she arrived at the hospital. "As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw him pressing on me and touching me. If I hadn't woken up quickly, I would have been kissed by him."

"It's disgusting. He's older than my grandfather. How can there be such a disgusting person in the world?"

"Uncle policeman, you must bring him to justice. Looking at him like this, he might have a criminal history. It's disgusting!"

The young policeman, who is only a few years older than the girl, touched the back of his head. "Don't worry, miss. If he does have one, we will definitely arrest him."

The noise on their side was so loud that the nurses and doctors on duty in the hospital listened and looked at Old Man Yun, who was still wailing on the hospital bed, with disdain.

"All checked, obviously not seriously injured, but still…"

"Didn't you hear? He tried to molest a young girl, regardless of how old he is."

A patient's family who was getting up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet heard the noise, leaned over and asked curiously, "what's going on? Why are the public security here?"

Some people who watched the whole thing kindly explained, "they caught a molester. Look, the old man lying in bed pretending to be in pain."

"He's so old, evil people are old now? What's wrong with this society? I'll record it for him… Tsk…"

He just recorded it on his cell phone, and the man who had been standing behind the girl and softly comforted her clenched his fist. He clenched his teeth and rushed directly into the ward, beating the old man on the sickbed again.

"Sick garbage!"

"Aren't you even ashamed at your age?! Molester!"

"Oh! Don't fight, don't hit! Don't fight."

When the two officers quickly tried to stop him, Old Man Yun received several more punches. He was delirious with pain. As soon as he looked up, he saw that the man who scolded and beat him was the same man who molested the girl first. He could have run away. It was only when he was stopped by this man that he was arrested. He obviously did such a thing too. Why did he scold him like that?

"If you hadn't kissed her, why would I have done so? You did it first!"

"Bah…!"

The man who was clenching with fists held by two policemen. "That's my girlfriend. I kissed her. That's our fun. It's none of your business!"

"Disgusting pervert, do you think everyone is like you? You get horny when you see any woman!?"

"Don't stop me from killing him, pervert! Don't think because you're an old man, you won't get beaten. I'm going to sue you for attempted rape and molesting my girlfriend. I'm going to make you rot in prison. Let me go!"

The two officers were also young, and the man was strong and angry. He was pulled, but they could not stop his roar.

The ward was not soundproof in the first place. After such a noisy scene, almost the whole floor was woken up, and the ward doors opened one after another. Some people came out curiously to ask what had happened, and the ones that came early told them what was going on.

"The young couple came out to play together, and when the girl drank too much and asked for water when she was thirsty, her boyfriend first placed her on a bench not far away from the place to buy water, he went out to have a look, and it wasn't far, then helped the girl fix her clothes. The two estimated that the old man saw it and the old man had lust, and when the girl's boyfriend went to buy water again, he went up and wanted to rape her."

"Ah? Did he succeed?"

"No, the man was worried about his girlfriend. He specially found a chair close to the vending machine. When he heard his girlfriend shouting for help, he ran over."

"I would feel like beating someone up too. In such a short time, his girlfriend was bullied. If it were me, I would beat this old man to death."

"Yes, there are all kinds of people these days, don't you think? "

For a moment, everyone looked at the wailing old man in bed with disdain.

The man shouted, all the people on the floor came to watch the hustle and bustle before he stopped, protecting his crying girlfriend and asking the public security if they could leave.

"I've taken a statement before, so you can go now. We'll call you if we need anything."

"All right, go back and comfort your girlfriend. It's a good thing nothing happened this time. Don't leave her alone next time."

The young officer looked at the young couple; She had tears all over her face, she hid in her boyfriend's arms, and his eyes were red, his hands were about to tear up the face of that old pervert. The public security man could only sigh.

It's not safe anywhere these days.

The man and his girlfriend thanked them, and the two got into the elevator and went downstairs together.

The young officer stood by the window, looked at the figure of the two snuggling away together, sighed, and turned to the ward to look for Old Man Yun.

The doctor said that he had not been seriously hurt, but did he pretend to have severe pain all over his body?

No matter how much you pretend, you will still be punished by the law.

Downstairs, the girl clasped her boyfriend's arm with tears in her face, buried her face in his arms, and asked softly, "how many point did you hit?"

"It looks like it would hurt for more than ten days, and during this period of time, his joints are so brittle that he may get a fracture if he falls. If he breaks a bone, it will hurt whenever it rains on a cloudy day, which will last him for the rest of his life."

"You're awful… "

"Well, that's what Shi-ge taught me, and I don't know where he got it. Come on, go back and tell Shi-ge to take it easy and let him take the next step."

The girl's face was buried in his arms and smiled, "I'm good at acting, do you think I can be a star or something? I heard that being a star is quite profitable."

"Come on, are you still short of money? And I wonder what advantage Shi-ge has given you to make you, a big miss, do this. Tell me about it."

"Exchange opponents, have you ever heard of it?"

"Shi-ge and I don't have much communication on the surface, and the insurance is appropriate."

The man immediately remembered that the big miss's attack on her cheating cousin was reported some time ago. He has been sneaking around, digging a corner of the company, and cheating with her father's mistress.

At that time, he was still wondering who did it, so beautiful without leaving a trace. Now he understood.

The two have swapped opponents.

Ah, don't bother to think about it…

As he was thinking, the girl suddenly stuffed something into his pocket.

"What is it?"

"Phone."

She got up from his arms. "The old man's. I just took it. Think about it. The public security must inform his relatives, but his phone is gone now. He certainly won't tell anyone about his son's phone. He can only recite his daughter-in-law's cell phone number, but the couple's old number would be busy all the time. Shi-ge can do a lot of things while he can't inform them."

The man touched the cell phone in his pocket and sighed.

City people have a lot of tricks.

He still earned a sum of money and could take the money to open a pig farm in the countryside.

"Okay, I see. Thank you."

Lin Shiheng was afraid of disturbing Yun Xiangyi, so he went to the balcony to answer the phone. He listened to the people on the other side say that the task had been successfully completed. He was not surprised at all. He couldn't expect any moral integrity from anyone who could molest a teenage girl.

After learning that the other party also included a lost mobile phone gift bag, he said thank you, hung up the phone, thought about it, and dialed another number.

This feeling of easily crushing opponents.

It's so bright that it's not challenging at all.

Early the next morning, the door of the Yun house was knocked.

Father Yun, who had been hiding in the house since the accident, heard a knock at the door but had no intention of opening it.

Since childhood, he has always been the existence of excellence in people's eyes. When has he ever been insulted like this?

Unfortunately, Father Yun couldn't scold back openly, because he did say those words.

He hated the insidious and cunning villain Lin Shiheng to death, deliberately inducing him to say those words and putting public opinion on his side. Now everything he does is wrong, and no one will believe him anymore.

The knock on the door continued, and Father Yun walked around the house angrily, turned around and went back to his room.

"Hello, I'm a reporter from the X newspaper. I'm here to interview you about what kind of person Yun Xiangyi used to be."

"Hello, Mr. Yun. Are you at home?"

"Mr. Yun, please rest assured that I'm just here for an interview. If you are not satisfied with the result of the interview, the newspaper will never publish it."

"Mr. Yun, Mr. Yun…"

Father Yun was so upset that he thought that after a while the reporters outside would think that no one would come out. As a result, they kept knocking on the door, and three neighbors even came to ask questions.

He couldn't stand it and opened the door.

"I won't give an interview, so please go back."

"Mr. Yun, please don't close the door yet. I have also read the reports on the Internet, but as far as I know, you have never stated your position publicly. Maybe you can rely on the strength of our newspaper to clear your name."

Father Yun hesitated, and unlike his wife and daughter, who had always insisted that he should not show up; He was in a situation no less than drowning in a smelly gutter, he, who had been bathed in the envy of others since childhood.

Of course he wants to argue back!

He's not like what he looks like in the video at all. It was all induced by Lin Shiheng.

When the reporter saw that he wavered, he took the time to persuade him with a few words. After all, he mastered the pen and talked like a duck to water. Father Yun finally let him in for an interview.

During the next period of time, the reporter began to brainwash him, ah… no, 'suggest' things…

"Your current image isn't really very good. I suggest that if you want to correct your name, you'd better choose a relative with a better image. After all, you and Yun Xiangyi still have an adoptive father-daughter relationship, and it will be more convincing to use your relatives as a bridge of communication."

"If you want to reverse the current situation, of course, you have to produce the evidence that Yun Xiangyi is exactly what you said, or witness… without evidence… Again, a witness with a better image will be more credible."

"Are you saying that when Yun Xiangyi was a child, she seduced your father to get pocket money? Wasn't she too young? And your father is really too old to be trusted, and it's easy for people to think that this is dirty. It's better to change it to her age and have a close relationship with several boys at the same time. Your father is a very decent person who saw it and called you. That's why you decided to let her go to boarding school."

"Those rumors that Yun Xiangyi had a miserable life at school and that the cost of living was not enough, you can say that the family was indeed in straitened circumstances at that time; But no matter how tight it is, you and your wife have been gnashing your teeth to cover the living expenses of Yun Xiangyi. After all, she is an adopted daughter, and you have done your best."

"In short, the higher the image of your father, the better. After all, he is a decent elder and an old man."

"If you feel that writing can't pour out the feelings you want, we can record and broadcast the interview, you can use your own voice. I'll ask the questions, you answer, and after you have finished asking, I think I can post any questions on our official platform, so that the audience can see it soon."

Father Yun, who has been stuck at home these days, complained by his wife and daughter, and despised by others, can't wait to clean his image.

He cooperated in recording and broadcasting a video.

In the video, according to the direction given by the reporter, Father Yun praised his father, saying that he was an excellent father and a very kind grandfather.

His behavior is very decent, which is embodied in the way he never remarried since Father Yun's mother died, and he has not had any contact with any woman. Father Yun once asked him, and the old man's answer was that if he married his mother, then his body and mind would belong to his mother.

So, he never remarried all his life.

It was because of this that Father Yun admired his father so much that he chose to send Yun Xiangyi to boarding school as soon as he said that she had intimate relationships with several boys at an early age.

As for the harsh treatment spread on the Internet, there was no such thing. They were very short of money at that time, and all the money was saved from their hard work.

There is also the mental hospital, although that mental hospital was unreliable, but the money invested in it over the years was not fake.

The video was quickly recorded, and the reporter said goodbye to Father Yun with a smile, saying that he would go back and cut the video with subtitles, which would be posted on the public platform in the evening at the latest.

With a smile on his rare face, Father Yun personally escorted the reporter out the door.

Throughout the afternoon, he refreshed the Weibo account given by the reporter from time to time, and finally, at 7 p.m. he saw his recorded video.

When he clicked into the comment area full of confidence, he received a lot of scolding comments.

[The so-called lack of money means letting Xiangyi eat steamed buns, while taking the whole family to travel abroad and taking pictures to show off?]

[Xiangyi and several boys were intimate? I'll politely ask, did you father go blind?]

[ Even a decent man can have a son like you!]

[Do you believe it? I don't believe it anyway, hah…]

[Would you please explain, Mr. Yun; Why you have such a close relationship with the family who bullied your adopted daughter?]

Father Yun was scolded unpreparedly

But then, someone sent out a short video showing a man beating an old man who kept screaming.

It just looks pitiful, there is nothing that can describe it. The old man attempted rape and was beaten by a girl's boyfriend.

The face of the man on screen was pixelated, but the old man wasn't. Father Yun only looked at it once and recognized that the old man on screen was his father.

No way!

He listened in disbelief at the voice of the person who recorded the video.

How could his father molest?

It's impossible! It's absolutely impossible!

Soon, a surveillance video was also revealed.

In the monitoring, at first, the little couple came over. The girl was obviously drunk, the two sat on the bench and talked, and the man put her carefully on the bench and left uneasy.

After a while, he came back, first helped the woman sort out her clothes, touched her forehead, smiled and kissed her. From the monitoring angle, we could see what he had said. They speculated that he was telling her to wait for a while and went to buy water himself.

As soon as he left, the figure of an old man came out on to the surveillance video, he looked left and right, no one around, and then went forward and made a series of obscene moves on the sleepy girl. Until the girl woke up and screamed for help, he turned and ran. The man came back with water in his hand and suddenly chased him down and knocked him to the ground. Then, two men in uniform appeared.

[WTF!]

[Despicable family! Never have anything to do with them!]

[The son does not treat his adopted daughter as a person, and the father tried to molest a girl who is old enough to be his granddaughter. I'm afraid there's something wrong with the genes in this family.]

[How on earth can that disgusting man say that his father is decent?]

[Perhaps, in his view, it is decent to rape young girls directly without taking another wife. Also, he can only marry someone around his age. His rape and indecent assault specifically targeted younger girls. Think about how disgusting the family is. You are such a person, and you still try to slander Xiangyi!]

[This video is a naked ridicule. I won't allow this! I have to repost it to show others how such 'wonderful' people exist are in the world.]

Watching the commentators while shaking, Father Yun trembled to find the reporter's number and dialed it.

"Delete, quickly delete that video."

"Sorry, the videos have been posted, and I have no right to delete it."

"However, Mr. Yun. Although the video cannot be deleted, I have something else to say to you."

If Father Yun thought he could save himself, he grabbed his phone as if it were a lifesaver.

"What is it?"

The other end was quiet and there was a sound of rustling, as if he was handing the phone to another person.

The next second, there was a man's chuckle from the other end.

The familiar magnetic voice sounded, and Father Yun's body froze for a moment, like falling into an ice cave.

"Are you satisfied with my present… "

"Uncle? "

"That's right. " Lin Shiheng 's voice softened down and was so gentle.

"There is another gift that I am preparing. "

"This is the last gift. If you get through it, I won't do it again."

"You devised this, Lin Shiheng. You devised all of this!"

Father Yun reacted quickly, clenching his teeth and pressing the recording button.

The other side responded happily.

Hanging up the phone.

Father Yun unbelievably picked up the phone and looked at it. He really hung up?!

It's impossible! He can't even record Lin Shiheng!

Unwillingly, he called again, but there was no answer.

The last chance to turn around, was gone.

He suddenly sat under the lamp, as if he saw his own future.

There was still a chance of survival when he was scolded by the whole world, after he tells the whole world that his father is a gentleman; But now the whole world knows that his father had attempted r*pe, he can no longer stay safe.

The negative impact is so great that his work place would no longer retain him.

And without a job, what's the difference between him and a loser?

All this is because of Lin Shiheng.

Whether it was the destruction of his carefully set up image, or that his father is accused of r*pe, it is all planned by that person.

In addition to hatred, Father Yun began to fear.

Putting aside those comforting words, he knew exactly what he had done.

Lin Shiheng must have known these things since he was able to deal with him so painstakingly.

He likes Yun Xiangyi, so he wants to avenge her.

If he had done nothing, or had a clear conscience, he might not have been so afraid, but he was well aware of the harm that what he had done to his adopted daughter.

Lin Shiheng would never let him go.

The last gift.

The first two things have already ruined his reputation and made his father's elderly standing.

The last one would only be scarier than the first two.

The more Father Yun thought about it, the deeper his fear grew.

He kept Yun Xiangyi in a mental hospital for ten years, and Lin Shiheng would certainly retaliate in the same way.

He can play people in the palm of his hand, he can easily defeat him. Such a fierce opponent that he can't avoid.

What to do?!

Where would Lin Shiheng attack from?

What would he do?

Father Yun walked around the room anxiously, thinking about the bad things he had done.

In the past, he felt that people didn't know those things, and he never showed any flaws. But now, after everything that happened ten years ago were dug out, Father Yun was on the verge of collapse.

Is it possible that Lin Shiheng found out the things he did at work?

If these things were exposed, he would be sentenced or fined.

There must be a lot of fines, although the sentence wouldn't be much, but if he went to prison; even if he is only in prison for a month, his whole life would be ruined for this job.

No, his whole life is already ruined.

What to do? What should he do?

No one outside will believe him now, and they won't believe his father either.

His wife can support him!

Yes!

If the wife gets a salary, she can support him.

As long as he stays at home and never goes out for the rest of his life, what else can Lin Shiheng, a guy who only plays with public opinion, do?

As long as they don't contact the Internet, keep hiding at home, netizens would forget about it quickly, and then after a period of time, won't they completely forget about this matter?

At that time, he can have plastic surgery. Change his looks with plastic surgery, move to another place, then he can still start a new life.

Father Yun's flustered heart gradually calmed down and looked slightly relaxed.

He was soothing his nerves when suddenly, there was a violent knock on the door.

"Open the door!"

"Unlock and open the door!"

Father Yun was startled by the loud noise, this was completely different from the reporter knocking on the door. It was simply and bluntly expressing that they were looking for trouble.

Clutching his heart pounding with fright, he walked quietly to the door and looked out through the peephole as quietly as possible.

At first glance, his blood seemed to freeze in his body.

It's the debt collectors!

Father Yun finally thought of the one thing he had forgotten during this period of time.

He still owes money!

He has been hiding at home all this time, and he forgot about it.

Then the question arises.

Now that the payment has been delayed for such a long time, how much did he owe now?

Father Yun's face suddenly turned white. He huddled behind the door, listening to the clanging knock on the door for over 20 minutes. In the end, he didn't know what they were doing outside. He didn't even have the courage to take a look through the peephole. He could only lean against the wall like a zombie and listen to the movements outside.

It was not until it was quiet outside for over an hour that he dared to look through the peephole, but he couldn't see anything clearly.

After waiting for another half an hour, Father Yun carefully opened the door. There was no one outside, but the floor was covered with red paint.

When he went out the door, he found the words 'repay the debt, if you don't pay the money, we will kill your family', written on the door with red paint.

Father Yun's legs suddenly turned to jelly.

His mind was blank and he couldn't think of anything. He turned and went back into the house with shaking legs. He put his documents and all the cash in the family into his bag, quickly found a cap and put it on his head, then hurriedly left the only home known to his debtor with a bag on his back.

The money went through so many days of interest, he doesn't have to think about it to know that even if he sold the house and car, he still couldn't afford to pay them back.

Father Yun has seen the methods of these debt collectors, and these people have all seen blood. If he is really stabbed now, there will be nothing left when he dies.

He escaped so fast that he didn't even think about how a wife and a daughter, of someone who owed a huge amount of debt, would face the debt collectors. He also didn't think about his father, who was still in the public security station.

Indeed, as Lin Shiheng expected, when it came to the critical moment, no matter how decent he usually pretends to be, he would still only take care of himself.

Father Yun 's flight plans did not go well.

At first, he quickly left the city and chose another big city.

It's just that this is a society with a developed network, and even if Father Yun tried to disguise himself, some people would still recognize him as the bastard-adoptive-father on Weibo.

Of course, the person who recognized him wouldn't do anything to him, at most, he would look at him with curious eyes, so no one would come forward to talk to him. After all, he is not a positive person, and it would be embarrassing if they recognized the wrong person.

But Father Yun doesn't feel lucky at all. As long as he was looked at, he would get goose bumps all over and subconsciously want to run away.

On the tenth day of his escape, the beard that had been trimmed every day had grown shallowly. The man who always paid attention to his image in the past, wore gray clothes, a mask and cap every day, and didn't even dare to eat outside. Every time, he could only take food back to the place where he lived, after buying it at a small stall.

His cash will soon be used up. His family gathered all the money in the bank on one account for his daughter's move abroad, and the card had been with Mother Yun all this time.

Father Yun knew that if he is called back now, Mother Yun wouldn't give him any money. He could only blame that he was frightened by the debt collectors at that time, and actually didn't want to leave.

For Mother Yun, it means that her husband left a pile of debt and ran away on his own. How could she be willing to give the family's money to him?

While Father Yun regretted it, he should have coaxed his family's money into his hands before running away. So, he had to gnash his teeth and think about how to live.

These days even if you go to a hotel to apply for a waiter position, you have to show your ID card. Once his ID card leaks out, not to mention the whole network that knew Yun Xiangyi's adoptive father's name, just the fact that it was likely to alert the debt collectors about where he is, was enough to stop Father Yun from moving.

If he doesn't move, he wouldn't have any money. If he has no money, where would he live, and what would he eat?

Father Yun was walking down the street, thinking about the problem, and then for a moment, he saw a wallet in a man's pocket in front of him.

He went up and naturally slipped the wallet into his hand without arousing any reaction from the man.

Father Yun was so excited that he took the wallet to a remote alley. He opened it and found that there were nearly a thousand yuan in it.

The money was enough for him to live for a while.

For a while, not forever…

The money ran out quickly, and this time Father Yun took to the streets again with a purpose, searching for a target in the crowd. This time, when he stole a wallet, it felt very smooth.

"Hey, thief!"

"The man in the gray hat is a thief. Come on, catch him!"

This time Father Yun lost his luck for the first time. The owner felt his wallet leaving his pocket and immediately shouted at the top of his lungs.

Father Yun felt what it was like to be a rat crossing the street for the first time. He had to run for his life before he could escape the man chasing him.

(TNote: a rat crossing the street/ [过街老鼠] ɡuòjiē-lǎoshǔ = rat passing along a street—person hated by everyone.)

Finally, he hid in an alley, just wheezing for a while. A man suddenly came in at the entrance of the alley, "Hey!"

Father Yun was so startled that he almost thought he was coming to catch him, and hurriedly stepped back.

"Don't worry, I'm on the streets, too."

The man was tall and strong, wearing a mask like Father Yun. He approached and looked at Father Yun, warily and asked, "you don't look like a professional pick-pocket at all. Is there a problem with your identity?"

"Do you want to buy an ID? I have everything here, and it's cheap, and you can return it if you can't use it."

Father Yun hesitantly took another step back.

When the man saw that he didn't believe it, he shrugged. "Seriously, I won't lie to you. If you have hands and feet, you shouldn't be a thief. You might as well buy an ID from me and find a job. Don't worry, as long as you don't go to a state job, no one would find out it's a fake."

Father Yun was moved.

If it had been a few days ago, he might have refused, but after feeling the joy of getting something for nothing, he no longer wanted to go to work.

But now, after tasting the taste of being hated by everyone, he doesn't want to be a thief.

Ten minutes later, the man rummaged out an ID that looked a bit like him and handed it to Father Yun. "If anyone asks why it doesn't look like you, tell them you've lost weight, 281."

Father Yun took out the wallet he had stolen, pulled out three red banknotes and handed them over.

The man neatly found a twenty and returned it to him.

"If you want to buy something in the future, you should come to me. I will sit under the big tree every Monday and wait for buyers."

Father Yun grabbed his ID and asked, "what do you sell?"

"I have everything. Anyway, let me know what you want. Even if I don't have it for the time being, I can get it for you."

The man patted his chest as if he was awesome.

"Of course, the price will also change according to the degree of difficulty."

"Brother, I advise you, with this fake ID, be a real man and work in a down-to-earth manner, and don't think about what you have or don't have any more."

As soon as he finished speaking, he left handsomely, leaving Father Yun standing in place with his ID card.

He soon found a job as a hotel waiter.

Being ordered around every day, standing at the back and watch others eat, and walking around with hot food all day. There was no time to rest his legs.

When has Father Yun ever suffered like this?

While he was working silently, he couldn't help signing up for Weibo and secretly went to see what was going on.

Sure enough, the fact that he owed a loan shark, disregarding his own wife and daughter, escaping alone, had become a well-known thing on the Internet.

His father was finally jailed for attempted rape, and at such an old age, he estimated that even if he came out alive, he would be useless.

Most importantly, everyone knew that he was trying to rape a girl, and Father Yun knew that his father loved his own standing the most. Living like this was no better than dying.

And Lin Shiheng, was smug.

After standing up for Yun Xiangyi, he directly adhered himself to the cast, repeatedly pulling the director to bring money into the crew. At that time, the plot was nearly half shot, and the screenwriter was forced to add a plotline. Finally, he succeeded in getting himself a role with a small part but it was relatively soulful.

Before he joined the crew, the propaganda style promoted by the crew was like this:

[A lot of laughter between X star and O star at the scene of Reuters XX shooting, and the scene was full of joy.]

And when Lin Shiheng came, the propaganda style became inexplicably like this:

[Hello, ok viewers watching the live broadcast. I am the lead actor XX, who is now dressed in very fashionable clothes, and walking towards us with eloquent steps is the heroine OO. We have just finished shooting, and now we are playing a fashion show. Let's go, audience friends! Sending out gifts, see this yacht and aircraft carrier, please do not hesitate to click! Anyway, this is Shi-ge's money.]

Originally a hard film crew flew everywhere, it was broadcast live as a travel tip. This was very unique.

In particular, Lin Shiheng was never in shortage of money. As soon as the crew arrived at a new place, he would treat them. He buys all kinds of things online. He doesn't need them, it was just to show off.

For example, today, he bought a sports car again and spread pictures on Weibo.

[Some people say that have no money suffer, but rich people also have their own pains. Today, I earnestly want to sue those people!]

[How can people who can buy whatever they want be miserable? I don't know how happy I am. Ha ha ha ha. Of course, if Xiangyi can agree to marry me, I will be even happier!]

Fans who were enthusiastic about his lavish style: "…"

[Idol, you lost me…]

There was a lot of wailing in the comment area, but no one really left his fan circle.

One by one, they howled, how good it would be if they could live such a happy life.

That's what Father Yun thought.

With a bitter salary, he worked very hard every day. He could only eat instant noodles after getting up early and working into the night. He was almost blinded by jealousy.

Why?!

He lives a hard life, but Lin Shiheng can live so chic.

He used to have a decent job and a happy family, but now he became such a ghost, thanks to Lin Shiheng.

Lin Shiheng did this to him, why could that guy live so happily?

Father Yun, who had been chased by debt collectors for a long time, had bloodshot eyes, looking at the handsome man on his mobile phone smiling wildly against a beautiful sports car with a happy look in his eyes. He looked at the announcement above, the shooting had been completed and Shi-ge wanted to hold a fan meeting in Qingshi. Suddenly, an idea occurred in his heart.

He is in Qingshi right now.

"What!? You really want this thing?"

Father Yun's hair was disheveled and he was showing signs of decay. "Do you have it or not?"

"Yes, there is one, but this thing is so dangerous that I'm taking risks by selling it to you."

The tall and strong man looked hesitant. Father Yun saw this and directly handed him all the salary he got this month. "Is this enough?"

"Enough."

The man immediately nodded with bright eyes. "I'll get it for you this afternoon, but this thing is so powerful that it's likely to hurt you."

"It's all right. Just get it."

Father Yun's head was now full of revenge, he wanted to make Lin Shiheng taste despair too. How could he still care about hurting himself?

In the afternoon, the man brought the explosives he wanted as promised.

"It's not easy to deal with. It's very powerful. After lighting it, you have to quickly avoid and hide as far as you can."

"But brother, you shouldn't do such a thing, someone might get killed."

Father Yun smiled ferociously. "That's right."

He took the dynamite and imagined how Lin Shiheng would be killed, relieving his anxiety and grievances for the first time after quite a long time.

"All right…"

The tall and strong man got back on his bike, raised his left hand, put his index finger up, and drew a random arc against his forehead. "I wish you success."

Father Yun watched him leave, put the explosives in his hand in the prepared box, and began to inquire about the location of the Lin Shiheng's fan meeting.

He is now hot-blooded, but he unexpectedly and smoothly reached the place and successfully reached Lin Shiheng who was signing autographs, one by one.

When the handsome young man reached out to pick up the signature book, he opened the box he was holding, revealing the explosives inside.

There was a cry of surprise from the excited fans waiting in line.

Father Yun didn't look at them at all. With a crazy smile on his face, he lit the explosives in his hand.

"Go to hell, Lin Shiheng!"

"And all of you can die with him!"

The fuse was lit.

"Ah!"

"Security!"

There were screams all around, the crowd was in chaos, and people fled.

Lin Shiheng also sprang to his feet and shouted to the fans around him, "Run! Now!"

Then, watched the explosive fuse burn to the end– but there was no sound.

It's a dud!

There was a moment of stagnation at the scene.

Soon, the responsible security guards rushed over and suppressed Father Yun while carefully throwing explosives to an empty piece of land.

Although it didn't explode, they still acted cautiously with such a dangerous thing. They all walked out one after another under the command of the security guards. Lin Shiheng walked out under the protection of bodyguards. Father Yun's face was pressed to the ground. A pair of bloodshot eyes stared at Shiheng in disbelief and hissed in his direction.

"How is it possible?!"

Nothing is impossible.

According to the law, the illegal sale of explosives and the attempt to ignite them in crowded place, even if it was a dud, was sufficient to prove the seriousness of his crime.

No one was killed or injured, so he wouldn't be sentenced to death or indefinite incarceration.

But he went with the intent of blowing up all the people there, which was proved by a video.

The court finally sentenced him to 30 years in prison because of the serious circumstances.

The father and son of the Yun family, who were both crooked, met a relative in prison.

Father Yun remained in a trance for three days in prison, until he was sentenced.

How can it be a dud?!

What were the chances that it was a dud?

While he was still in a trance, someone outside called him out and said he had a visitor.

Who visited him?

Hope sprang up in Father Yun's heart. Was there a chance for him?

When he went to the large visitors' room in prison, he saw Lin Shiheng through the transparent glass.

The handsome man with almost perfect features, sat quietly in a chair, dressed in a light blue suit, with his white face, and his slightly drooping eyelashes. He looked very gentle and harmless.

But Father Yun knew what kind of devil this man was.

He moved his feet, sat down in his chair, and watched Lin Shiheng pick up the phone, then he picked up the phone and pressed it to his own ear.

The gentle voice of the man with a smile came from the phone.

"Xiangyi said yes to my proposal, and as an adoptive father, I think I should share our joy with you."

Father Yun tugged at the corners of his mouth, showing a standard smile.

"If I had known today would be this way, I should have killed her in the first place."

Lin Shiheng smile didn't change. "I guessed that you would have this idea, so I did it ahead of time."

"The third gift. Do you like it?"

As he said that, he looked up and down at the man in prison uniform. "It seems that you have adapted well in your new environment. You must like it."

The smile at the corner of Father Yun's lips gradually froze, and even his eyes seemed to freeze stiff.

"What do you mean?"

The man sitting opposite him through the glass raised the corner of his lips slightly, stretched out his slender white left hand, put his middle index finger on his forehead, raised it with a smile, and drew a beautiful arc.

A familiar gesture, it made Father Yun clench his fists.

Lin Shiheng smiled at his sharply narrowed pupil.

His slender right hand still holding the phone, his voice was very gentle.

"You don't seem to be going very well, uncle."

It's, it's the man who sold him the explosives! Lin Shiheng knew him!

Father Yun stood up with wide eyes.

Lin Shiheng looked at him with a smile and whispered into the microphone something only the two of them could hear.

"Knowing that you can't live well, I let him give you a new identity, a new life, and persuade you not to do anything stupid."

"But it seems that you took this gift for granted."

Being struck by lightning was not too over the top to describe what Father Yun was feeling.

What he thought was an escape from everyone.

For Lin Shiheng, it was only a joke.

The man even gave him the tools he wanted to kill Lin Shiheng.

Father Yun trembled and shouted, patting the glass uncontrollably.

"It's you!"

"It's you! You're with him!"

The uniformed watchman at the door immediately came forward and snapped, "Don't make a ruckus!"

"You did this to me!"

"You're together! You did this!"

Father Yun was pulled out, and the man sitting in front of the window raised his eyebrows. He slowly put down the phone with his slender hand, got up and left.

After going out, he went straight into a car. Yun Xiangyi sat in the copilot's seat and looked at him slightly sideways, looking silently at him with clear eyes.

The man's smile grew a little wider on his lips, stretched out his hand and touched her hair.

"He seems very angry."

Yun Xiangyi's beautiful brow frowned lightly and said disapprovingly, "Don't take such a risk next time."

Lin Shiheng knew that she was talking about him asking someone to give Father Yun fake explosives and then waited for it. The eyes on his white face turned even more gentle.

"It won't happen again."

Those who have ugly thoughts towards Yun Xiangyi no longer have the ability to do whatever they want.

When Yun Xiangyi heard his words, she was completely relieved, and her beautiful lips raised slightly, revealing a smile.

"Come on, the marriage has just been announced, and we still have a lot to prepare."

Yun Xiangyi was stunned. "haven't you done it all already?"

After all, the two have been planning their wedding for some time.

"No, there's one more thing I'm not ready for."

Lin Shiheng smiled at her with a bad smile. "For example, your brother."

Meanwhile, Zhao Xingguang, who had just finished filming his drama, tiredly took a glass of water handed over by his assistant. With the other hand, he took out his phone and was ready to browse Weibo, to see if there was anything new. 'Lin Shiheng and Yun Xiangyi announced the wedding date'.

The one who never heard the two people talk about getting married in the near future, Zhao Xingguang: "…"

The disposable cup in his hand was instantly squeezed out of shape.

"Lin Shiheng!"

Although Zhao Xingguang was very dissatisfied with the big tailed wolf who took away his sister, the wedding date had been announced, and the fans on both sides were happily praising it all together. Plus, no matter how unwilling he is, he can only watch the two enter the hall for marriage. In addition, the fans of both sides are happy to smoke together, and no matter how unwilling he is, he can only watch the two enter the wedding hall.

Looking at his sister, who tried on her wedding dress, standing in front of the mirror. Her beautiful face was covered with a happy smile, and Zhao Xingguang felt happy and sour.

"Xiangyi, I'm not saying I don't approve of your marriage, but isn't it a bit hasty? How old are you? "

"And, and…" he racked his brains to think of the reason, "and I'm an older brother, and I'm not even married yet, so it's not nice for you to get married first."

"That makes sense."

Lin Shiheng's voice came from behind. Zhao Xingguang looked back and saw the boy coming in proudly in a tuxedo.

As soon as he saw the malicious smile on his face, his heart was startled. Sure enough, Lin Shiheng quickly said, "it doesn't look good for a younger sister to marry one step ahead of her older brother."

"It would be better for you to find us a sister-in-law as soon as possible. It would look good if elder brother and his sister held the wedding on the same day."

The one who has always been against him, Zhao Xingguang: "Don't call me elder brother!"

"Xiangyi and I are legally married. Why can't I call you elder brother?"

Lin Shiheng smiled at him with an innocent smile, "hello brother."

Zhao Xingguang: "…"

Ah, why was my sister stolen by this son of a bi**h?

No matter how reluctant he was, he finally held his sister's hand in front of everyone and walked all the way on the red carpet, to the end where Lin Shiheng was.

There were guests all around, everyone had a smile of blessing on their faces, and even a few journalists, snapping pictures.

The good music sounded, and Zhao Xingguang held his sister's hand, as if they were children again.

At that time, Xiangyi was a very lively girl, more playful and popular than he was, and always stood up bravely to protect her brother when he was bullied.

Other times Xiangyi was very gentle, it is hard to imagine that such a young child would be so sensible.

She seldom cries, and almost every time she cries, it was because Zhao Xingguang was bullied and cried bitterly.

The last time he saw her crying helplessly was when she was taken away by the couple.

Zhao Xingguang cried, she cried too.

He even wanted to say, 'don't go, stay! Stay with brother!'

No matter how bitter it was, he would grow up, protect her, and become her support.

But in the end, he couldn't say anything to make her stay.

No matter how weak the children in the orphanage were, they grew up faster than those from ordinary families.

Zhao Xingguang knew that this was the best thing for his sister.

They have a good living environment. You can tell at a glance that the parents have received a good education.

They should really like her.

After all, his sister is so nice.

Little Zhao Xingguang hid in the quilt and cried silently while biting the quilt.

Tears wet the pillow and made it uncomfortable to lie down.

He didn't mind ignoring these things, he only thought about it.

This was a good thing for his sister.

But later, he saw the Xiangyi who was disliked.

They didn't treat his sister well, and even did that kind of thing when she was young and unable to resist.

Zhao Xingguang picked her up.

He took care of her like how his sister took care of himself when he was a child.

But he hasn't done enough.

In the end, it was another man who cleared all the shadows for her.

Zhao Xingguang walked on with red eyes, but he didn't cry.

Just whispered to Yun Xiangyi, who was wearing a beautiful wedding dress next to him, "have a good life, if he bullied you, you have to tell me."

Yun Xiangyi believed that Lin Shiheng would not bully herself, but looked at her brother, who was about to cry, and nodded gently.

"Yes, I will."

Zhao Xingguang hands Yun Xiangyi's hand into Lin Shiheng's palm.

"Protect my sister."

It is rare for Lin Shiheng to be serious, but he solemnly promised.

"I will protect Xiangyi, all my life."

"I hope you'll keep your word."

Zhao Xingguang tried to look serious, but the red corners of his eyes betrayed him.

Finally, he came down and watched the two take the oath and watch them exchange diamond rings.

From then on, his sister was really someone else's.

He really wanted to beat up Lin Shiheng… kuh.

Zhao Xingguang wiped his eyes with the back of his hand, thinking about the last time Lin Shiheng could easily lift him from the ground when he couldn't move, and silently dismissed the idea from the bottom of his heart.

Let's watch carefully.

It's best if he can treat Xiangyi well. If not, even if he can't beat him, he will try his best to protect Xiangyi.

Lin Shiheng didn't give Zhao Xingguang a chance to beat himself up.

Since the couple got married, the wayward little prince always went home to Yun Xiangyi as if he had suddenly turned into a sheep.

He followed whatever she said, and never said a heavy word to her.

What fans like to talk about most about the two is that Lin Shiheng is like a little sticky candy after getting married. Generally speaking, if Yun Xiangyi is going to act in a drama, her husband is bound to appear in the show too.

Even if it was an all-female script, he will go in and play a passer-by role.

Very vivid interpretation of what is called 'every-moment-want-to-stick-together', such an outstanding way of abusing single-dogs.

Zhao Xingguang was jealous at first, but when he was just being habitually jealous, he remembered that this elder brother had not met the in-laws, and he was immediately annoyed.

As for parents, Yun Xiangyi once went to meet them with Lin Shiheng. Lin Shiheng was in a single-parent family, so his father dotes on him, and the meeting went very smoothly. According to Yun Xiangyi, the father is a very kind person, and he is very satisfied with his daughter-in-law, but he can't attend their wedding because there is a delay between the wedding and a very important meeting.

At first, Zhao Xingguang thought that this was an excuse, and that the other party didn't like his sister. After all, how important can a meeting be? He was relieved to hear from Yun Xiangyi that Father Lin suggested whether they could get married earlier or postpone it.

But after all, this wedding is an agreement with fans, and some true-love-fans had even paid out of their own pocket, tickets to fly to the wedding, in order to see their idol get married.

When you think about it, you would sigh because of Lin Shiheng's impulsive behavior.

As soon as this guy succeeded in proposing marriage, he immediately went through the yellow calendar on the spot, found a recent date, and made an announcement. He was rushing ahead and didn't even stop for a moment.

(Tnote: Yellow Calendar/ Huangli [黄历]= is a Chinese divination guide and almanac. It consists primarily of a calendar based on the Chinese lunar year.)

Why are you in such a hurry? Can't you discuss it with your family first?

Are you still afraid that he, the elder brother, would stop it? Is he, Zhao Xingguang, they type of person who would do such a thing?

The one who could really do such a thing, Zhao Xingguang, was aggrieved.

In the end, the wedding was held as promised, but fortunately, there were no media that took Lin Shiheng's father's actions as rejecting this marriage. After all, although Lin Shiheng's father did not come, the Lin family still proudly came to the scene with smiles. Especially Grandma Lin, who was so kind to Yun Xiangyi that she even took off the bracelet given by her mother when she got married, and gave it to Yun Xiangyi.

Because of the support of the Lin family, Zhao Xingguang put the matter aside for the time being. After all, although he had not met Lin Shiheng's father, Xiangyi had seen him, which shouldn't be a big problem.

With this in mind, on a certain sunny day, Zhao Xingguang offered to pay an official visit to Lin Shiheng's father.

Lin Shiheng, who was so in love with his newly-married wife, readily agreed.

Zhao Xingguang attached great importance to his sister's father-in-law and asked Lin Shiheng what his father liked before preparing a gift.

Since the marriage, the man wo began to resemble the devil more and more, has been seriously thinking for a moment, "money."

Zhao Xingguang: "…"

Lin Shiheng was really not joking with him, "my father is a businessman, loves money and work. Anyway, I grew up basically meeting him at breakfast, I won't see him at lunch and dinner."

Obviously, his words were understated, but Zhao Xingguang instantly made up a sad picture of a small child that wasn't loved by his father who loved money, and had to sit and eat by himself when families normally gathered together.

He has experienced this kind of loneliness himself, so he was good at imagining how hard it would be for others to be alone.

Zhao Xingguang looked at Lin Shiheng with a little more sympathy, "were you all alone when you were a kid?"

"Of course not."

Lin Shiheng snapped his finger and recounted to him, "my father bought me all kinds of plane and train toys, and a game room, because he was always away from home. And my friends also liked to come to my house to play with them, and of course, if they wanted to come to my house, they had to please me. So, I have been pampered by a group of people since I was a child. Every time I want to find someone to play with, a bunch of people would come over. How could I be alone? "

"And because they are not allowed to play this or that, they can only play with what I want to play with. I could tell my Dad whatever I wanted, and he would buy it. Everyone envied me, so I have always been the most nourished one in our group of small friends."

The always silently enjoying loneliness on his own, Zhao Xingguang: "…"

He wants to take back the sympathy that shouldn't have existed.

Lin Shiheng didn't let him go. When he finished, he asked curiously, "What's that look on your face?"

Zhao Xingguang: "I thought your father only loved money and didn't have time to love you."

"He makes money just to give me a good life ah… "

Lin Shiheng smiled and waved to Zhao Xingguang. "You may not understand the happiness of the rich."

The once again was mildly patted on the face, Zhao Xingguang: "…"

He wanted to see how rich Lin Shiheng's father was.

Look at this kid, such a show off.

The next day, Zhao Xingguang who was carrying a carefully selected gift, he sat in a car with his brother-in-law, driving toward the Lin's house. As he watched the car drive through the gate, he was a little surprised.

"Your father lives in the villa here? I know that every inch of land is worth every inch of gold."

Looks like Lin Shiheng's father is really rich.

"Yes."

Lin Shiheng was leaning over to let Yun Xiangyi help fix his collar and casually replied, "that's what my dad said when he developed this place."

Zhao Xingguang nodded subconsciously and suddenly froze before waiting for a complete nod.

"Developed by your father?!"

"Yes."

After helping Yun Xiangyi tidy up too, Lin Shiheng sat up straight again. "This villa area was developed by my father."

Zhao Xingguang: "…"

His knowledge of this place is limited to the news he has seen. At that time, the news only said how expensive a villa here is. After all, it's in such a good location, such a large area, and all kinds of facilities, it was complete. Most people that lived her, have names that, when said, would shock other people.

At that time, he knew, or because he heard that an artist who had reached the pinnacle of the entertainment industry had spent a lot of money to buy one of them, the news specially reported that the price was hundreds of millions of yuan.

So, the question is, so many villas worth hundreds of millions of yuan, how many billions do they all cost?

Zhao Xingguang silently swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

With the uneasiness of 'Xiangyi's father-in-law was a rich man', the car stopped at the door of one of the villas.

The driver stayed in the car and the three knocked on the door together.

In Zhao Xingguang's heart, the names of all those rich and powerful people flashed franticly.

Lin is a big surname, and there are many people surnamed Lin, but it seems like he never heard of a real-estate developer with such a surname.

Five minutes later, Zhao Xingguang saw a face he often saw on the news.

The Chairman of Yuguang!

The boss of his immediate superior! The General Manager's Boss!

And this big boss, who always looked serious on the news, is shaking hands with him enthusiastically at the moment.

Zhao Xingguang's brain almost crashed.

To be exact, he had crashed.

It was not until he had a few cordial words that Zhao Xingguang managed to find his voice. Although he was talking, he couldn't remember what he had said when he went out the door and looked back.

He just remembers that the man really liked his Xiangyi. In addition, he thought that the entertainment circle boss was actually a multi-sided boss.

It's also a good thing that he can recognize and support Xiangyi.

But soon Zhao Xingguang fell into new troubles. Lin Shiheng had such a background. If this brat really did something wrong to his sister in the future, what could he do?

He still had to work hard!

Fight!

Make progress!

Stand up to a very high position, high in the middle of the city, so even when there were any crooked thoughts, no one would dare to act on it.

Yun Xiangyi was surprised to find that her brother was full of fighting spirit since he met her father-in-law.

"Shiheng, what happened to brother?"

"It's all right. Men of this age love to work hard."

Lin Shiheng smiled and leaned over to his wife, took a picture with her and posted it on Weibo, where a group of single dogs that immediately complained under the Weibo post that their idol was abusing single-dogs and fans.

[Oh, oh oh, you don't care about us!]

So, with all kinds of work from Zhao Xingguang, Lin Shiheng and Yun Xiangyi started to only play in one movie a year. And the rest of their days were wonderfully spent on traveling everywhere.

The two have high prestige and very good acting skills. Even if they don't depend on their families, just shooting one play a year was enough to make them unrestrained and happy.

Lin Shiheng didn't come back with Yun Xiangyi until he had been playing like this for two years, but this time he squatted at home honestly and didn't go out to play.

Yun Xiangyi announced that she was pregnant, it was the crystallization of her love with Lin Shiheng.

As soon as Yun Weiwei opened Weibo, she saw this hot search.

She looked at it with a complicated look for a few seconds and finally clicked it.

Sure enough, from the beginning, it was Lin Shiheng's undisguised excitement and the happiness the face of her unrelated sister.

Her facial features were bright, looking dependent on her husband's arms. The former gentle and quiet eyebrows are now a little livelier, the smile on the corners of her lips were enough to let all those who see know that she was very happy.

Yun Weiwei stared at the photo and finally sighed and closed Weibo.

If she was once dissatisfied with and even jealous of Yun Xiangyi, those emotions had long been erased by the life that came after her father left her and her mother, leaving them helpless to face debt collectors.

The most ridiculous thing is that the man got into debt because of gambling, and she and her mother were the last to know.

After the cadre who promoted his father was removed from his post for investigation, Yun Weiwei knew that the rumors on the Internet were true. When Yun Xiangyi was bullied to commit suicide, her father didn't hold the man accountable and even swallowed it because the cadre gave him money, and made it convenient for him.

Yun Weiwei's mother was hit hard by her husband's unhesitant abandonment.

She always knew that her husband was not what he showed on the outside, but she didn't expect that this cruelty to her adopted daughter would one day be aimed at her as someone who shared a pillow with him.

Even if Father Yun didn't tell his wife know about the loan, legally, she still had to share his debt.

Because she had no idea why she was in debt, she could not prove that the money was not used for their lives together.

She realized when Father Yun ran so fast, that even if she refused to bear it, he would definitely force her to go together.

For the first time, Mother Yun found that the nasty and tacit filth she had vaguely guessed, turned into a sharp sword that pointed at herself.

She gave away all the money in her family after Father Yun was jailed, and the house and car were sold to pay off the debt.

The Yun family, which can also be regarded as a well-off family, fell apart.

She filed for divorce.

Father Yun disagreed, Mother Yun quickly found that she was sick.

It's not an incurable disease, but she could no longer work hard and needed to take medicine after medicine for treatment. The price adds up to a large sum of money.

Father Yun immediately changed his tune and agreed to the divorce.

Even if he was now in prison, he would eventually come out, and he didn't want to come out and instantly face a lot of debt from his wife's treatments.

Yun Weiwei was ordered by the court to follow her mother.

Overnight, she seemed to fall to hell.

She didn't stop her parents from getting a divorce, and by the time her father abandoned them, she had no feelings about her father anymore.

Yun Weiwei failed to get admitted to the Film University, only to a mediocre university. During her college years, she had been working in part-time jobs to support her mother's treatment.

It was not until she felt the taste of eating steamed bread and cold water that she realized how ridiculous her jealousy toward Yun Xiangyi was.

She clearly realized that Yun Xiangyi didn't owe the Yun family.

Even as an orphan, she didn't suffer as much as being the adopted daughter of their family.

Yun Weiwei put down her phone and seriously began to hand out flyers.

She thought that Yun Xiangyi should be very happy now.

Yun Xiangyi was really happy all the time.

During her pregnancy, Lin Shiheng took good care of her. Even if he hired a nanny and a babysitter, he still studied about pregnancy very seriously.

Until the birth, Yun Xiangyi didn't suffer much pain.

She gave birth to a pair of twins safely.

They were also a pair of brother and sister.

Lying on the bed, watching Lin Shiheng carefully touch the little finger, the corners of Yun Xiangyi's lips rose.

"I will protect them."

At the Full Moon Celebration, Zhao Xingguang gently teased the two little guys, his eyes full of tenderness.

(TNote: According to Chinese custom, when a baby turns one month old, a ceremony is held to celebrate her first full month of life [the Chinese term translates as "full moon" or "full month"]. The babies are formally introduced to the extended family and friends.)

These two children reminded him of himself and his sister.

He failed to protect her when she was a child.

But he can protect her two children.

"No, I'll do it by myself."

Lin Shiheng squeezed into the best position for watching the babies, with a silly father's smile on his face, showing off and taking a vigilant look at Zhao Xingguang.

"Of course, my children need me to protect them as a father!"

"Brother, don't you feel ashamed that Xiangyi and I both have children but you're still a single-dog?"

Zhao Xingguang: "…"

No matter when and where, Lin Shiheng always made people want to strangle him.

But he also had to admit that even though Lin Shiheng was very unlikable to him, he was completely gentle to Xiangyi and his two children.

As the two children grew up, the whole entertainment industry knew that they were Lin Shiheng's precious treasures.

The biggest treasure was of course his wife, Yun Xiangyi.

Lin Shiheng, the Devil, was watching his three treasures, happily enjoying his life which has always been carefree.

Men feel that Lin Shiheng is a typical winner in life, while women feel that Yun Xiangyi is simply soaked in a honey jar.

Fans yelled at the couple every day, almost crying with envy.

Of course, there are fans who thought that Lin Shiheng, a fun-loving person, isn't very good-natured.

Although he was handsome and rich now, most people in the entertainment industry would gradually be forgotten when they get old.

Right now, you treat money like water, and playing around; Wait until you are old, and it would be your time to suffer.

They were also rational fans. Every time they see Lin Shiheng buy some luxurious thing, they had to try to persuade him to not be too extravagant, and think more about the future of his family. But there were too many comments, and they would often be drowned out by the comment-army before they could hold on long enough.

Until one day, Mr. Lin fell ill and was admitted to hospital, because he could no longer work in the company. There was a mole inside Yuguang, so Lin Shiheng returned to Yuguang, as an heir, to take Yuguang into his own hands at rocket speed. He integrated all Mr. Lin's industries, and set up the Ai Yi Group. Fans were shocked.

[Idol, how come you never said you were a rich second generation?]

[And Idol, wouldn't you be embarrassed to name it Ai Yi Group? So simple and crude.]

(TNote: Ai = Love, Yi = from the name of his wife.)

When interviewing Lin Shiheng, a reporter showed him these comments and asked him what he thought of it.

"Why did I never mention it? You never asked."

"If someone had asked me; 'is the chairman of Yuguang your father?', I would have answered very honestly, 'Yes, it is my father.'"

"The name of the Ai Yi Group is indeed me, expressing my feelings to Xiangyi. Why didn't I name it after the name of my two children? Well, first, I think the names my father chose are too ugly. Second, she is my partner who would accompany me all my life."

"When the children grow up and take over the Ai Yi Group, I wouldn't mind if they wanted to change the name later. Anyway, after such a long time, many people should know that I love my Xiangyi."

Reporters: "…"

Enthusiastic fans: "…"

That's a simple and rude answer.

[Why does this idol always give such a divine reply?]

The most amazing thing had yet to come.

Just when everyone thought that Lin Shiheng was going to return to his rich life and become the big boss of Ai Yi Group, he hired a CEO and transferred the management power of such a large group directly to this CEO.

Then, holding shares, he continued to eat, drink and have fun with his wife and children.

People who didn't guess the plot right again: "…"

Sure enough, it's in line with the behavior of the Big Devil, Lin Shiheng.

In any case, he integrated all the industries, and also made people see his means. Although the CEO was divided a small part of the shares, but he also knew that if he had a crooked mind, he absolutely cannot fight Lin Shiheng. So now, he has been working conscientiously for the Ai Yi Group.

Lin Shiheng is responsible for meeting everyone when he needs to, he can easily continue to be happy.

Perhaps it was because of his happy-go-lucky attitude that he was still handsome when his family celebrated his 90th birthday in the ward.

According to his daughter, even if he was old, he was still a handsome grandfather.

The hidden wounds on Yun Xiangyi's body have been thoroughly taken care of by a famous psychologist specially found by Lin Shiheng, unlike Father Yun, who died after he was released from prison because of physical injuries and refusing to work, there was no pain in her body when she was old.

It's just that she was still old. A few days ago, an autumn rain caused her to catch a cold. It was not something easily cured. Lin Shiheng was also infected with a cold. Two elderly people were lying in the ward together.

Their condition suddenly worsened, and Yun Xiangyi's mind was already a little blurred, but she still remembered that her husband's birthday was coming in two days, so she insisted on celebrating his birthday.

The children knew that their physical condition wouldn't last long, and no matter how important it was, they rushed to the hospital with their children, grandchildren and even their great-grandchildren, to celebrate their father's birthday.

The family happily lit birthday candles in the ward and sang birthday songs together. Lin Shiheng was very happy and reached out to cut the cake with a smile.

Yun Xiangyi leaned against the hospital bed and looked at the room full of children and grandchildren, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.

"Xiangyi, eat cake."

No matter what it was, Lin Shiheng always gave her the first one.

Yun Xiangyi's hands were too weak to move, so he fed her. Seeing that she had eaten, Lin Shiheng asked softly, "is it sweet?"

"Sweet."

Yun Xiangyi ate the cake, and felt the sweetness deep in her heart.

She whispered, "I'm sleepy."

The handsome grandpa held out his hand, touched her face and said softly, "go to sleep if you are sleepy."

"I'm sorry."

Yun Xiangyi could feel her spirit passing away in her body, and she kept her eyes half open, trying to keep herself awake. "This time, I'm going first."

"It doesn't matter."

Lin Shiheng kissed her eyebrow, in a soft voice: "I'll be right there."

By the time he got up again, Yun Xiangyi had closed her eyes.

"Mom!"

"Grandma!"

The ward burst into tears.

Half an hour after the death of the veteran artist Yun Xiangyi, her husband died, they were together. It is reported that the two have been together for nearly 70 years, never shying away, and loving each other all their lives.

Even in death, they wouldn't let each other wait a moment longer.

Yun Xiangyi's interview about death was broadcast as a memoir.

Inside, the beautiful girl, who looked so beautiful 60 years ago answered with a smile.

"Death? This is a very heavy topic. I am not afraid of death. What I am afraid of is to face it alone when I die. If I can have my favorite person at my side before death, even when everyone is hustling and bustling, I won't be afraid of death. This should be easy to achieve. When you are old, you will die. Then, just let everyone come and see me."

The reporter asked, "then when you get old, who do you hope would leave first? You or your husband?"

Mentioning Lin Shiheng, Yun Xiangyi's smile was sweeter, her white fingertips pointed to the table. "My husband is very courteous to me. Every time he has something good to eat or use, he would give it to me first. I hope that death will be the same, but it must be painful to think that I would be the one left behind, so it would be nice if we could go together."

In the comment section, this article got the most comments.

She is really happy. Only with such happiness can she leave with peace of mind, even in the face of death.

[Ding, task completed. Please host choose 1. vacation, 2. to continue the mission.]

[Continue the mission.]

Lin Shiheng stood in front of the mirror, blurred his memory and turned to leave.

With People walking to-and-fro in the noisy street, Lin Shiheng mingled in the middle, he fixed his eyes on the girl who was sitting on the street selling fish.

She was beautiful and white, wearing a simple ponytail, revealing a slender neck, bowing her head slightly, examining the fish in the large basin where the fish were placed.

The dead ones were picked out and put on the plastic sheeting on the floor, and after putting it there, she stared at it for a long time, and didn't withdraw her eyes until she confirmed that the fish was indeed dead.

When she finished the work, she wiped her hands, picked up the books on one side and read it attentively. She obviously liked to study.

This is the mission goal of the world, Ke Jialing.

Her parents are both fishermen, and she is a student, studying in a nearby high school. Because her parents worked all day and night, her father was sick but had no time to go to the hospital to see a doctor. Ke Jialing came to sell fish for them today, so that her mother could accompany her father to see a doctor.

Lin Shiheng watched for a few seconds and finally walked toward her.

Ke Jialing was burying her head in a book when she saw a guest out of the corner of her eye. She looked up to greet him warmly and saw the face of the person in front of her.

Under a pair of eyebrows slightly picked up, were sharp facial features with sharp edges and corners. Although the clothes were very shabby, and messy hair, they still didn't hide his handsome appearance. Their line of sight met up with sparks.

Her face instantly turned red.

Lin Shiheng stooped down regardless of his image, just hanging around with a cigarette in his mouth.

He asked, "why are you setting up the stall today?"

Ke Jialing's white little face had become red for a long while. She grasped the book in her hands, at a loss. She hardly dared to look straight at Lin Shiheng. Her eyes gleamed weakly and replied, "my father is not feeling well. My mother accompanied him to the hospital."

"Is your father sick with something serious?"

Ke Jialing shook her head carefully. "I don't know yet, I have to wait for them to come back."

"Okay, when they came back you tell me. I'm usually… around these streets."

As Lin Shiheng said that, he stood up and waved to a man eating a bowl of noodles in the distance. "Lao Liu, come over."

"Eh?"

The man who looked like a hoodlum immediately rushed up and bowed to Lin Shiheng. "Shi-ge, what do you want me to do, do you want the fish in this stall?"

He asked, and before Lin Shiheng could answer, he turned to Ke Jialing with a fierce look. "Don't you have eyes?! Why aren't you hurrying up?! Give Shi-ge the biggest one!"

Lin Shiheng slapped him on the back of the head.

"Do you think I am that kind of person?"

"This is your sister-in-law! Greet her."

"You're the one that doesn't have eyes! "

Liu Zi's eyes suddenly widened.

His trembling fingers pointed to Ke Jialing, who was shocked and embarrassed to hear this, and looked at Lin Shiheng with his head tilted. He stammered, "Shi-ge, are you serious?"

"Can this be a lie? Have I been lying all day, trying to get those people to arrest me and convict me of hooliganism?"

Lin Shiheng impatiently stretched out his hand and slapped him on the head. After he finished, he pulled back his hand and rubbed it on his clothes.

He urged quickly, "still not hurrying to greet?!"

Liu Zi gulped.

Although he always thought Shi-ge was the best, he looked at the Lin Shiheng in front of him, who was scolded as a hooligan and dressed in shabby and unkempt clothes, and looked at Ke Jialing, who was completely different from them, even though the clothes were not very new, but the washing was clean and neat.

You would think that these two people weren't people of the same level.

Although very puzzled on how Shi-ge managed to make Ke Jialing his girlfriend, Liu Zi stammered under Lin Shiheng's urging and squinting, as if he were about to feed him to a tiger.

"Sister-in-law, hello sister-in-law."

Ke Jialing's white hands almost twist the corners of her clothes. Her beautiful eyes were full of embarrassment and shame.

But she still looked up and quietly looked at Lin Shiheng with her, eyes standing in front of her first. Only then did she reply, "hello."

Mama ah! She actually agreed.

And looking at this appearance, it didn't look like Shi-ge forced her.

These two people are really dating!

Liu Zi simply thought he was dreaming.

"All right, now that you have greeted, you know what to do."

Lin Shiheng looked at Liu Zi's untidy hair that wasn't shampooed for days. This time he didn't slap it.

"Eh, er… I know… I know."

Liu Zi was shocked by the huge news, but he didn't go to gossip. He hurriedly launched his own small brain and repeatedly responded, "after that, I'm very sure she is sister-in-law. And I will take good care of her and will not let anyone bully her."

"Just take care of your sister-in-law."

"Yes, yes, and Old Ke… no, Uncle Ke and Aunt Zhang, I'll be sure to take good care of them."

Seeing Liu Zi think like this, Lin Shiheng nodded with satisfaction and held out his hand to pat him on the shoulder. He didn't look down to see what sticky and dark things were on the shoulder. He abruptly took back his hand and hung it down as if nothing had happened.

"I can leave it to you guys, later take more care of my father-in-law and mother-in-law, you help is indispensable."

"Eh, er… thank you Shi-ge."

Liu Zi's flattering smile immediately became sincere, but he still had to wait for orders. Lin Shiheng added, "you know this now, you know in your heart, just take good care of it, and don't spread nonsense."

"If I hear about it from others."

Lin Shiheng grabbed a piece of ground brick and chopped it off with his bare hand.

The brick was not only split in half, but also broken to bits. Just as a gust of wind blew, some dust was blown up in front of Liu Zi.

Liu Zi: "…"

Shi-ge has always been known to have the ability.

But he didn't expect, he had such incredible ability.

Liu Zi, who was originally thinking of taking the incident as a big news and sharing it with his fair-weather friends, immediately slumped down. He only wished his mouth had a zipper, and he couldn't say a word once he closed it.

Fortunately, Lin Shiheng did not forget to give a carrot when he knocked down the stick. He hooked his finger at him, waiting for his silly head obediently lean closer. He charged to a low voice, "Lao Zi will enter the city next week, can't do it without you."

(TNote: Lao Zi = a way of saying "I" in an arrogant manner. Like saying "this boss here".)

Liu Zi's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Eh, thank you Shi-ge, thank you Shi-ge."

"All right, get busy."

Lin Shiheng waved at him and watched him leave happily.

Ke Jialing got close and heard his words clearly. Her eyes immediately took on a bit of nervousness and worry: "What are you going to do in the city? I heard that the city is cracking down on things, if you go, you will be caught."

"Cracking down is to catch bad people. Do you think I look like a bad person?"

Lin Shiheng raised his eyebrows at her. He had a face full of sharpness and ruffianism, his smile was full of naughtiness.

It was indeed a bad face, but in the eyes of Ke Jialing where beauty lies in the eyes of the lover, only the beauty of this face was felt.

Ke Jialing was confused by her smiling heart and looked down at a loss, but she still remembered to answer "no, very different."

"That's fine, I am a person who behaves well. If I go to the city, what reason would those people use to catch me?"

Lin Shiheng smiled like a riffraff and raised the corner of his right lip slightly. "You feel free to study, you don't have to worry about these things. When you reach that age, we'll get married."

Ke Jialing blushed and nodded cleverly until Lin Shiheng left, and the agitation in her heart failed to come back for a long time.

She always thought that Shiheng didn't want to tell anyone about their relationship.

She didn't even consider it.

Thinking of the scene when her lover asked others to call her sister-in-law, Ke Jialing's already blushing face became even redder.

She sat down slowly and continued to read the book, but only this time, she couldn't concentrate on it.

Lin Shiheng was walking back. His physical prestige is very high in the area. Along the way, ordinary people stood away, and gangsters come to say hello respectfully.

It's just that his prestige didn't last long.

Ke Jialing was right before, the original owner never wanted to tell anyone about their previous relationship.

If someone else could have such a good-looking, gentle and considerate person who was a good student, they would certainly tell the world; But the original owner himself could be regarded as a terrible figure in this small county. Of course, this was amazing, that's only what he thought of it.

This was still a novel and a world made up by the author. The timeline has not yet completely entered the era of science and technology, it was more similar to the period of reform and opening up of China, but many details were different because of overhead settings.

The original owner was the male lead, and his father died when he was 7 years old. At the age of 8, he was driven out by his own grandparents together with his mother, this was called a separation, but the only property he got was a broken quilt.

It was his maternal grandmother who loved her daughter and gave a dilapidated house to the widowed daughter to live in. She also gave a little subsidy from time to time, so that the original owner and mother, who knew nothing but farming, survived with her son.

The original owner got into all kinds of fights when he was 9 years old, and once made a brilliant record of winning a fight against two adults.

He was born with great strength and a deadly temper. As he grew older, he gradually made a name for himself. Until one day, he was reported. He was locked up in the public security station for a few days and suffered a lot. He realized, he couldn't go on like this any longer.

The original owner's brain was also flexible. He quickly gathered up his brothers in this small county town, and he also took care of the public security station from time to time, and didn't steal or rob things. After all, he was strict in managing these kind of affairs, and didn't hate his fate. He directly collected the protection fee. The younger brothers took the money one by one and gave it to him. He took some of it himself and distributed the rest to everyone.

Those who have paid the protection money were safe. As for the ones unwilling to pay, their location and name would be recorded and handed over to others, to spread widely. The loafers who rob and steal knew that these places were not covered, so they would do it again and again. Until the other side can't bear, and had to pay the protection money. What he did was beautiful. He didn't do anything after receiving the money, and he didn't force people to pay the money. When asked, he could say that the other party voluntarily sent him money, and when someone reported it, he would know who did it. He himself was very cooperative and stayed in the public security station, but his brothers took vengeance to the whistleblower. If they opened a shop, the storefront of the whistleblower will be patronized by a group of thieves until the original owner came out.

After so many times, no one dared to do anything to these gangsters. As the eldest brother, the original owner has always been cool and unrestrained.

With power in his hand, he wanted to do bad things, but it so happened that the original owner, was a bastard. He was filial to the mother who brought him up singlehandedly. Unlike the son that had bad thoughts, the mother had a conscience. She always talked to her son every day, to never do bad things. If he does bad things, she will feel uneasy for a lifetime, and she would be too ashamed to live as his mother.

The original owner who had no conscience didn't care, but he still cared about the life and death of his own mother, so he always saved some face in doing things.

He felt that he had a conscience, and he never did anything bad, so he always felt justified in front of people. As for letting his little brother collect protection money, it was so that he could blame it on them. If he didn't say anything, who would know?

The worst thing he has ever done is to Ke Jialing.

Although Ke Jialing's parents were fishermen and the two of them were tanned, they have always kept their only child in a delicate condition and it made her look fresh and beautiful. Coupled with her reading and love of learning, she had an attractive temperament, which in the eyes of many people, was the most beautiful woman in their small county.

The original owner also thought that she was good-looking and had evil thoughts in his heart, but these days the crime of r*pe was heavily punished, and he thought about his own mother, so he didn't do it.

He didn't do it, but someone in the next county did, taking advantage of Ke Jialing's holiday and dragging her to do something on some section of the road. Ke Jialing shouted for help and happened to bump into the original owner who was accompanying his mother to the city, to see a doctor.

If it was the usual him, even if she screamed, the original owner didn't bother to care, it would be enough for him to not commit r*pe himself, and he didn't have to stop others from doing anything.

But his own mother was there.

His own mother was worried when she heard a girl call for help, and hurriedly urged him to see what was going on and whether someone was hurting a girl.

The original owner was unwilling to go, and then saw that the disheveled girl who was desperately crying for help was actually Ke Jialing, and immediately went up with a stick to beat up the gangster who wanted to do something bad to her.

His idea was simple.

I want to do it, but I never dared to do it! You son of a bitch dare to do it?!

I could kill you!

The guy was beaten half to death, and the mother of the original owner wanted to call the public security but was stopped by Ke Jialing and the original owner.

Ke Jialing was afraid that if she called the police, everyone would know that she was almost r*ped, while the original owner was physiologically unwilling to see the police.

Ke Jialing did not know, ah… she thought that the original owner would choose not to report to the public security because he was considerate of her. After all, the crime of r*pe was heavily sentenced and there was a large bonus. If he called the police, he could get a lot of bonus.

She had been studying in the city and had hardly seen what kind of person the original owner was. While she was grateful for being saved by him, she quietly felt admiration at the bottom of her heart.

It is perfectly normal for a girl to have a crush on someone who had saved her life, but it usually fades when she calmed down after a couple of days. It so happened that the original owner didn't resist when he was assigned by his mother to hold her up, so he 'unintentionally' took advantage of her several times.

Taking advantage like this, Ke Jialing still thought he didn't mean to. She blushed and avoid thinking about it, but the original owner felt the taste of a woman he hadn't felt for over 20 years.

No wonder so many people miss women.

Such a fragrant and soft woman, he also wanted it.

Because his mother was there, the original owner didn't dare to go too far. He honestly sent Ke Jialing to her home. In the whole process he looked like a gentleman.

After that, when his mother was sent home, he couldn't contain his excitement and quietly turned to the Ke family's court yard, intending to peek at the little girl taking a bath.

As a result, there was an accidental noise. Ke Jialing saw a shadow outside the house and got up in shock to check it.

It was too late to climb over the wall.

They were all from a village. If Ke Jialing's parents were alarmed and they made a ruckus about it, his mother would certainly know about it.

In an urgent situation, the original owner pulled off a flower from the root of the wall and stood waiting for Ke Jialing to come out surprised. He handed the flower to her, pretending to be calm. "When I came back, I saw it by the side of the road and thought you would like it, so I came to give it to you."

The original owner, who wanted to take advantage of the situation, kept his cool and climbed over the wall in front of Ke Jialing.

Ke Jialing held the flower blankly, and the young girl's heart fell.

The two went back and forth like this, but the original owner couldn't resist and coaxed her to kiss several times. Although Ke Jialing was embarrassed, she could not resist him. In addition, she also felt in her heart that she was his girlfriend, and it was normal to kiss.

Then, after drinking only a little wine one time, the original owner forced Ke Jialing to sleep with him while he was still sober.

The next day, facing the crying Ke Jialing, the original owner regretted it more than she did.

He doesn't want to get married, he just wants to live an unrestrained life. If he marries Ke Jialing, she was an only daughter and her family was poor, won't those two old guys who got up early and fish in the dark every day depend on him, and make him support them?

Can't support!

He refused to allow his mother to consent.

Moreover, this is still a village. Even if the original owner didn't acknowledge the incident, it was impossible. If Ke Jialing spoke to the whole village about it, even if he is unwilling, he will still be married under the pressure from his mother.

Fortunately, Ke Jialing is still in school. So, he casually said, "You have to focus on school and I am just a little ruffian who can't bring you a bright future. It is better to wait until you finish school and I would gain some achievements, then, standing upright in front of your parents, I will ask them for your hand in marriage."

Ke Jialing believed it, she was originally a naïve girl raised by her parents. In addition, although her lover was good at everything in her mind, it was an indisputable fact that her parents didn't like and even feared him; and he didn't have a job. So, she obedient hid this matter.

The original owner saw that she was so gullible, he was relieved and a little proud at the same time. From then on, if wanted to 'do it', he ran to Ke Jialing.

These happy days didn't last long. The county suddenly cracked down on the gang members like him. They were caught and would have to be locked up for 20 years. Although the original owner had been hiding himself from others, he was still reported and could only flee to the city without returning home.

Ke Jialing always thought of him as her serious boyfriend who would talk about marriage in the future. When she saw her lover's difficulties, she hurriedly took out her savings. In addition, the original owner's Aunt gave him a lot of money, which was enough for him to leave.

After the original owner left, he entered a big city and started a new life. Instead, Ke Jialing was scared for him. She turned red in the face during the college entrance examination and finally failed in the examination.

After she failed to enter the list, her parents began to make plans to find a match for her. She couldn't push them off and finally told them about herself and the original owner. She believed that when he had achievements outside, he would come back to find her.

The heartless mind of the original owner was naturally not thinking of her.

In his mind, Ke Jialing was only one of his various women who was silly and gullible.

He was the male lead, and naturally had the blessing a golden finger.

(TNote: Gold finger= originally a gaming term meaning a 'cheat code'. In the novel world, gold finger usually means having plot armor/ a character always having stupid good luck/ or having an item that always saves them someway somehow from anything bad.)

Getting off from the railway station, he saw a thief who stole a beautiful woman's purse. He stopped the thief and got the appreciation of the beauty. He was introduced to some work by her, and he became more and more intimate with the beauty at the same time. His work was also smooth.

Until he gradually walked to the top of the company, not by ability, but by his ruffian appearance and relationships with all kinds of women.

In the end, he married a real wife, the only daughter of the boss of the company, and when the boss died, the company naturally transferred to him, and from then on, he was sleeping together with all kinds of beauties on his list.

This was the end of the book.

The book had a big ending, but life was not over. After the end of the book, the small world was out of the author's control and began to develop freely. The original owner's wife hated that he had taken her father's company and found other women. The children born to other women had to share her family's estate.

Other lovers of the original owner were in contention. If they were willing to share the love given by the original owner with others before giving birth, then after having children, they naturally didn't want their children to compete for favor, or even the company, with a group of half-brothers.

Those who have children wanted to get more benefits from the company, while those without children worked together to win the hearts of the men.

It was obviously a modern society, but it had become a palace drama.

The original owner's ending was quite sad. His wife seized power with others and he went to prison. The rest of the lovers only liked the man who planned the strategy and held the power in his hand. Even if they had some sincerity, it had been wiped clean as early as when he had various kinds of romance with other women. How could they be willing to take care of a useless person who had nothing left?

He died before he got out of prison.

[Ding. The mission of this world is not to join the company in the original plot, but to protect the mother.]

It was the original owner who requested the task. He was a scumbag, but he was indeed filial.

As for Ke Jialing, she has long been absent from his memory. Even though his mother said Ke Jialing took good care of her, they should be together and told her son to take care of her.

However, the owner sent someone to look into it and found that the beauty of Ke Jialing had faded over the years. After she could no longer compare with the group of beauties and sceneries around him, he ostensibly dealt with his mother, conveniently gave her some money and never thought of her again.

Ke Jialing was not the guardian target, but the person who should be guarded most in this world.

In particular, the two also had a relationship. At the present time in this world, the relationship between men and women was not as open as that of later generations. Having a relationship is almost the same as being husband and wife.

Lin Shiheng walked all the way home.

This house was built after he made money from his skill. Although it wasn't magnificent, it was also one of the best houses in the village, with red bricks, black tiles and a large courtyard with high walls.

When he came back, Mother Lin was sitting at the door sewing clothes. When she saw her son coming back, her wrinkled face, which had experienced too much suffering, immediately smiled.

"Shiheng, you came back so early today."

"Yes, the boss let me off work early."

Lin Shiheng went up and pulled a small bench and sat down himself. "Mom, why are you making clothes for me again? How many clothes do I have?"

"It's all right. You're all grown up, and your stature won't grow any taller. It doesn't matter if I make too much. If you work outside, you have to dress better. Look at you, what a mess you're wearing. People would laugh when they see it."

Lin Shiheng looked down at his shabby clothes, which could be regarded as the wisdom of the original owner. Most of those brothers are living in straitened circumstances, although they are majestic outside, but they never had any money left in their hands, so more and more of them wore rags.

The original owner had made money, otherwise he would not have been able to build such a good house, but he was not stupid. The protection money was collected by the brothers and handed over to him, then he withheld some of it and then shared the rest equally.

Although most of the brothers knew that he must have withheld some of it himself, they didn't dare say anything on the surface.

The original owner has always been rich, and even if he was rich, he is dressed in rags like that of the group boys, and looks almost the same as them. Even if someone mutters behind his back, won't they feel guilty?

Mother Lin did not know this. She always felt that her son wouldn't fool around, so the original master coaxed her that he was actually working for other people, and that he himself was hidden behind the scenes of those thugs. Even if he was called Shi-ge, in the street, he could say that his prestige was still there. After all, the reputation of being invincible in the county was still there.

When he said this, Mother Lin did not think that her son was deceiving herself, coupled with the fact that she was envied by some people for being good-looking when she was young, and they laughed at her when she was driven out of the house by her mother-in-law; Mother Lin did not like to chat with some of her peers in the village. In her heart, she felt that her son had already changed his ways, stopped fooling around and had a good job.

"Mom, let me tell you something."

Lin Shiheng stood up, walked behind Mother Lin, and massages her shoulders. "I want to go out and venture out into the world."

Mother Lin was stunned, "go and do a good job, what will you do out there Shiheng? you don't have any skills, can't you just stay at home honestly?"

"Mom, I read in the newspaper these days and said that the country is going to make a big move. If I stay here, I'm afraid I'll be caught and jailed."

Mother Lin looked surprised and hurriedly turned around and grabbed her son's hand. "How? How could you go to jail? Aren't you doing a good job for your boss now? Why would you be caught?"

"Oh, Mom, take it easy and listen to me tell you slowly."

Seeing that the old lady was in a panic and at a loss what to do, Lin Shiheng, fearing that she would be in a hurry, squatted down and looked at her straight in the eyes, and spoke with a relaxed expression.

"I'm not fooling around like I did before, but before those brothers all look up to me and call me brother when we meet. In the eyes of some people, won't I, Lin Shiheng, look like I'm still hanging out with them? If the country really does something big, who would care if I'm honest now? I've committed a crime in the past, and I'm still connected with that group of brothers, I'm still going to be arrested."

Upon hearing this, Mother Lin's hands trembled with fear. "Well, what are we going to do? Why don't you stay out of touch with them now?"

"People give me face, call me brother, and usually give me some conveniences. If I suddenly ignore them now, and this group of people feel tension, get anxious and angry. What would they do to me then?"

This was pure make believe. Lin Shiheng's name in many people's ears, was that of a Dinghai Shenzhen, it was the automatic attack type. It wouldn't let anyone hear it be unhappy, or feel unhappy when they hear it.

(TNote: Dinghai Shenzhen = The Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod; also known as Ruyi Bang or Jingu Bang, is the poetic name of a magical staff wielded by the immortal monkey Sun Wukong.)

Mother Lin didn't know these things, she was coaxed, and immediately believed it. She forgot that her son wanted to wander outside. She hurriedly put down the clothes she was still sewing, stood up and went to pick up his clothes for him.

"You have to go. Hurry up. Mom will give you all the money at home. You can look for a job outside. Don't worry about me. I'll take care of it at home."

"Er… Mom, wait, there's no hurry yet." Lin Shiheng hurriedly grabbed the old lady. "I have to go to the county to explain what's going on. It would take two or three days. I'm telling you now, I just want you calm your heart."

"and…"

He looked around mysteriously, and when he saw that Mother Lin was looking over with worry, he quietly approached her and whispered, "the Ke family at the east end of the village, the fishing family, their daughter is my girlfriend, and while I'm away… Mom, you keep an eye on her for me."

Mother Lin's eyes suddenly widened, leaving even her worries behind.

"You have a girlfriend?"

"Shh… "

Lin Shiheng hurriedly made a silence gesture, "don't tell others in advance, I have this meaning. Her parents don't agree with me, besides, it's not that you don't know her grandmother's temperament of wanting money. If I don't make something of myself, it's useless to say it out loud."

As soon as this was said, Mother Lin's attention was quickly diverted, remembering Ke Jialing's appearance, her face showed some joy. "She's a good child, and she is good at studying as well as having a good temperament."

Thinking and considering, she was worried again.

But it's too good. Although her son is the best in the world in her heart, Mother Lin had not reached the point where she couldn't see between right from wrong. Compared with the Ke family's child, her son was really nothing much.

Although there was a job, he still had to leave and go to unfamiliar cities.

Wouldn't the girl be unable to wait?

Besides, wasn't her son always refusing to talk to those scholar types? Why is he still making friends with others at this time?

Mother Lin was thinking, she suddenly thought of something, and suddenly clapped her hands. "I remember, the last time you save that girl, Wasn't it the Ke's girl?"

At that time, she still thought that she was from the same village, which was a good relationship. She didn't think that after a period of time, the two were still getting along with each other.

"Yes, that's her."

Lin Shiheng looks serious. "Mom, I'm not here these days, so don't always think about going to the field. I'll transfer money for you."

"How can this do?"

Mother Lin refused without thinking. "You've already had a hard time outside. How can I spend your money? Mom can farm and support myself. You, ah, save your money outside and wait to use it for marriage."

"No."

"Mom, listen to me, I'll tell you … my girlfriend's parents have always been very reluctant to get close to me. I have flattered them several times, but they all stay away from me."

Lin Shiheng said confidently, completely ignoring the fact that the original owner went to Ke's parents several times for protection money.

"Because they were avoiding me, I didn't tell them about our relationship. I wanted to wait until I made a name for myself outside. I was afraid they wouldn't agree, so I wanted you to get in touch with them more. You'd better talk more. Think about it, ah… when I come back, and you have a good relationship with them. If I mention this again, they would be too embarrassed to disagree. Right, Mom?"

Mother Lin listened thoughtfully. "It seems so."

"That's it."

Lin Shiheng added: "They are fishermen. Mom, you are a farmer. If you farm every day, you would miss meeting them. How about this? I will set up a stall on the roadside for you and put some books there. Then you will sit there and wait for others to buy books, right next to the Ke family's fish stall. If you are so close to each other, you can chat every day, your feelings will come up."

"When the stall closes in the evening, I'll ask my buddies to put the books away for you and put them at their home first, and bring them back the next day. It won't be difficult."

Sounds like a good idea.

Mother Lin was a little moved. In her heart, the marriage of her son, who had always refuse to start a family, was definitely a big deal. It was rare for him to have someone he liked and wanted to marry. How could she not help as a mother?

"Would it be too much trouble for your brothers? Don't we have a cart at home? I'll just push it myself."

"It's nothing, brothers must support each other."

Mother Lin had agreed to come, but she still had some hesitation, "if I don't farm, what about our land?"

"It's all right. Just give it to Uncle to plant and let him give three portions of grain. Uncle's family has a lot of people. If it is really not possible, give it to Aunt's house. Isn't there a lot of people in her home?"

Listening to Lin Shiheng offering the farm for Aunt Lin, Mother Lin ignored all her previous worries and looked up in surprise, "Shiheng, do you really want your Aunt to plant our land?"

Lin Shiheng knew why she was so surprised. The original owner always hated the people on his paternal side, including Aunt Lin. Although she was oppressed by her own mother-in-law, she also scraped together food to feed her nephew, the original owner, but she was never appreciated by him.

Aunt Lin did not marry very well. At the age of 16, she was married to Zhang Guanzi from the village by Grandma Lin. Although Zhang Jianzi was a cripple, he was diligent and nice to this wife, but Aunt Lin's mother-in-law was as difficult to get along with as Grandma Lin. Since Aunt Lin gave birth to her daughter, everything was wrong in her eyes. Aunt Lin once ran back to her mother's house after being beaten by her mother-in-law, but after she was driven out by Grandma Lin, she never ran back, no matter how painful she was beaten by her mother-in-law.

Mother Lin asked Lin Shiheng to help her sister-in-law, who had been helping her family, many times, but the original owner turned a deaf ear.

In his eyes, the Lin's, except for himself, should die.

Perhaps the original owner's heart and soul were only given to his mother and the group of beauties. In the original plot, he had already spent all his family's money at that time. It was all thanks to the money given by Aunt Lin and Ke Jialing that he was able to escape. They saved his life, but unfortunately neither of them got rewarded.

Although Ke Jialing received a sum of money, she drowned while helping her parents catch fish. Aunt Lin didn't last long and was beaten to death by her mother-in-law a year after the owner left.

When the owner knew about the incident, he sighed with emotion. He didn't want to avenge her. He didn't even think about how his Aunt's only daughter would live without her mother.

Lin Shiheng picked up the small bench, still looking familiar to Mother Lin, "I'm going to leave, aren't I? If I give the land to Aunt, she can also take more care of you."

Knowing that this was the filial piety of her son, Mother Lin felt warm in her heart, "then give half to your aunt, half to your uncle, let them give two portions each."

"Yes, I will come back from the county town tomorrow and tell them."

Lin Shiheng responded happily and went back to his room. He slept through the night.

When he went to the county town and walked trough the main avenue, Liu Zi eagerly welcomed him, "Shi-ge, the things been completed."

"It's done?"

Liu Zi gallantly took Lin Shiheng to an old motorized tricycle cart and uncovered the cloth on it to show him.

"I especially did it myself. Look, they are all big watermelons. When you knock it, the sound it makes is very beautiful."

Lin Shiheng checked them one by one, nodded with satisfaction, and handed Liu Zi the money in his arms.

Liu Zi hurriedly took it, counted it twice without any scruples, struggled for a few times, and took out a few "Elder brother, too much, it's too much."

"It's okay, for running errands."

Lin Shiheng waved carelessly and went straight to the driver's seat.

Liu Zi didn't understand "Elder brother, are you going to take this watermelon to the city to sell? But the cost of watermelon, car rental, gas, and the money you gave me, even if you sell it at the same price as the city, you will incur losses."

Before, he was a watermelon farmer with his family, and naturally knew all about these things.

The man sitting in the cart seat turned his head, his handsome face had sharp eyebrows.

"Do you know how much one of these watermelons could sell?"

Liu Zi immediately reached out and drew a number.

Lin Shiheng asked again, "If I cut it open and cut it into twelve pieces, what about selling it at one fifth of this price?"

Liu Zi hesitated and counted with his fingers for a while, "make profit!"

"Brother, you are so smart!"

"But this way, you will also earn too little."

"Ng! "

Lin Shiheng started the cart and drove out directly. His voice drifted into Liu Zi's ears along with the wind.

"I won't cut it, but squeeze watermelon juice. City people like this, I can sell a cup of watermelon juice for the price of a watermelon."

"Go!"

Liu Zi just stood there, his brain just couldn't figure it out.

How could a cart of watermelons sell for so much more when it came to Shi-ge?

Lin Shiheng drove the borrowed watermelons all the way to his destination. He looked at the sun in the sky to calculate the time. The speed of his driving slowed down and occasionally looked at the surrounding environment.

Compared with the county town, the city was indeed much cleaner. People walking up and down the road wear more fashionable clothes, even the storefronts had modern tastes.

Unlike what Liu Zi thought he would do, Lin Shiheng found a bakery that was a little deserted compared with its surrounding stores and began to talk about cooperation.

This cake shop had a good location. There was a primary school not far from at left and a hospital on the right. There were many people coming and going, but they only sell cakes. Although this was a town, most people were still relatively thrifty these days. Instead of bringing money to buy cakes and eating things that would be lost in their stomachs, it is better to save money to buy new clothes or buy stationery and books for children.

Therefore, although the store owner specially decorated the store with gorgeous and exquisite cakes in the glass display cabinet to attract the eyes of passers-by, there were still very few people that bought food. At most, only when there was some happy event or a child's birthday in the family did people buy a small piece of cake to eat at home.

Lin Shiheng noticed that when the store owner was moping and cleaning in the store, although he could see that he was very depressed; His hands didn't stop, wiping the surroundings clean, and even cleaning the floor several times.

He stopped the motor, pushed open the door and walked into the store. The shopkeeper looked up and was stunned at what he saw. Lin Shiheng was wearing the same old clothes he used to wear, although he washed his head. This was deep in town, and it is almost impossible to see anyone wearing such patched clothes.

The shop owner only paused for a moment, then quickly put away his surprise, put down his mop and asked, "Do you want to buy cake?"

He was just making it easy to ask, after all, with how he dressed, it didn't look like he had the money to buy cakes. Unexpectedly, the guest actually answered it.

"Yes, I'll buy two, one big one and one small."

Lin Shiheng smiled kindly at him, stood in front of the glass cabinet, watched the shopkeeper take out two cakes from the direction he pointed at, and asked affectionately, "do you want to pack them?"

"Pack the big one, and eat the small one here."

"Okay…"

The shopkeeper's sad face rarely showed a smile. For him, it was good to have any kind of business right now.

When he quickly put the small cake on a plate with a fork and wrapped up the big cake, Lin Shiheng paid the money, took a bite of the small cake, and immediately praised aloud. "Boss, this cake of yours is good! Why does it look like business isn't very good?"

At the mention of this, the smile on the boss's face fell down again with a sigh of distress. "I guess it's too expensive. I thought I was the only bakery in the city when I opened the shop, and business was certainly good. I also rented such a good store with a good storefront, but the result was such a loss."

Lin Shiheng took another bite of cake and leaned against the glass cabinet, chatting casually. "Rent isn't cheap around here…"

"Yes."

The boss's face looked even more worried. "I gained a lot of money for the first month. I thought the cake shop must be doing good. I rented it for half a year at a stretch and hired two salesmen. But as a result, the salesmen resigned. The rent couldn't be refunded, so I had to sustain it."

"It doesn't make sense, I tasted your cake, it's delicious. How could people dislike it? "

"I don't understand either. I used to work in Shanghai. The bakery business there was very good. I was an apprentice there for two years before I learned the craft and came back to open a shop. Who knew…?"

The boss couldn't help but sigh again. He was dazzled by the popularity of the Shanghai cake shop. He was working well there, but he thought that no one had opened a cake shop in his hometown. This was a market that no one had excavated. He returned home with money. In order to open the cake shop, it could be said that he invested everything he had and borrowed a lot of relatives. He had promised to open a good shop and return home with riches, but there was nothing left for him to make compensation.

"Boss, why don't we do this… I've sold things before and know how to sell them. I'll help you sell cakes. You give me a cut. For every cake sold, you give me 1% of the price of the cake. How about that?"

After Lin Shiheng said so, the boss didn't react for a long while. This was a casual chat; how did it turn to him helping himself sell things?

He hesitated a little and didn't want to promise. After all, he knows such things as selling things for a commission, but this stranger made such a request out of the blue.

Seeing him not answering for a while, Lin Shiheng picked up his eyebrows. His handsome face smiling, "boss, think about it. I don't want a salary. Although you have to give me money to sell the cake, but you would still earn more. Even if I can't sell them, you won't lose anything."

The boss was gradually being talked into it.

Yes, he had nothing to lose…

"That's fine, you can try. But how can you prove that you were the one who sent someone here to buy?"

Lin Shiheng smiled, "if the person who comes and requests some watermelon. That's the guest I found. Is that all right?"

As soon as he said this, the boss saw the watermelon cart parked outside, "okay, it's settled."

"Okay, I'll go out and find some guests now. Will the boss please look out for the cart for me."

The boss, who was also warm-hearted, nodded and agreed then watched Lin Shiheng leave his store with the big wrapped cake.

Although he agreed, the boss didn't believe that the man dressed in patched clothes could help him find guests.

If he could find customers, his store wouldn't be so desolate.

But now that it's like this, let's treat it as a last resort.

Lu Ming, from Class 1, Grade 5, was walking on the way to school with his schoolbag on his back, next to his two cousins. He was bragging to them that he went to the zoo during the holiday, not to mention how much fun it was.

"There were giraffes, white cranes, tigers and lions. The tiger's mouth is so big that it can swallow a whole hippopotamus."

"That's a lie!"

A cousin of the same age as Lu Ming immediately questioned, "aunt and uncle were obviously helping us during the holiday. Without them, how could you go to the zoo?"

"I went alone! Can't I?"

"That's a lie. I've been to a zoo. A tiger can't swallow a hippopotamus in its mouth. A hippopotamus is even bigger than a tiger. How can it swallow it? And your parents wouldn't give you money to go to the zoo. Your family has no money at all."

"Great, your boasting again. I'll tell others not to believe you next time."

Lu Ming was anxious. He watched his two cousins, echo each other, and ran away. He immediately rushed up and said, "No, don't do that! Come back!"

He ran to catch up and almost cried. He was about to grind his teeth and continue to run when he heard a noise coming from the corner alley.

Lu Ming was stunned and didn't care to catch up with his cousins. He walked over curiously and saw a man sitting on the ground in shabby clothes. When he saw him, he looked up and said, "Child, could you please help me up? I sprained my ankle. I can't move right now."

"Oh, okay, I'm coming."

Right now, this was the era where people helped each other. Lu Ming hurriedly ran over and laboriously picked up Lin Shiheng who was on the ground and helped him lean on the wall. "Uncle, I'll go now."

"Wait a minute."

Lin Shiheng stopped him and asked smilingly, "Did you quarrel with your classmates just now?"

Speaking of this, Lu Ming's face that had gotten better darkened again. "Not my classmates, but my cousins. Their laughing at me."

Lin Shiheng was somewhat surprised, "aren't you cousins? Why would they laugh at you?"

Lu Ming embarrassedly lowered his head, "My family is poor."

In fact, he wasn't so fond of boasting, but his family was poor and his parents had to give him less money. It so happened that his two cousins liked to laugh at his family's poverty. Every time they have something good, they would show off in front of him. They also liked tell the whole class how poor his family was and make people laugh at him when they see him.

Liu Ming wanted to regain his face, so he insisted on lying. In the end, it was revealed. It seems like when he goes to school later, he would be laughed at as a liar by a group of people.

In adults' eyes, this was just a small fight between children, but for Lu Ming, he was experiencing verbal violence every day, which could be seen from his growing dislike of talking in school.

"I see."

Lin Shiheng took two steps forward with his hand on the wall, picked up the cake box that had been placed on the ground and handed it to Lu Ming, who was confused.

"I heard before, they joked that you haven't been to the zoo, right? This is for you. This is the favorite cake of people in big cities like Shanghai. It's made of nutritious milk and tastes sweet and soft. It's much more delicious than candy. Uncle will give you a cup of iced watermelon juice and you can drink watermelon juice after eating the cake. They haven't eaten it either. It will certainly make everyone envy you."

Lu Ming looked dumbfounded while holding a cake box that was almost too big for him, looked up at the handsome man in front of him, "but this is must be expensive."

"It's quite expensive, I bought this at the cake shop opposite your school on the right. But, you just saved me, this is your reward."

"By the way, is your cousin in the same class as you?"

At the mention of his cousin, Lu Ming immediately felt a shock. "My younger cousin and I are in the same class."

"There are plates and knives and forks in the packing box, so why don't you take the cake to class and share it with everyone, give more to those who have good relations with you. Give less to those who have bad relations, and don't give some to your younger cousin. He must want some when he sees it. If he is willing to apologize to you, you can give it to him."

"Remember to mention as much as possible that this cake is from Shanghai. Shanghai is much more powerful than the zoo. If there are children who want to eat it, you can tell them to go to that cake shop to buy it. There's a promotion right now, buy a cake and get a cup of watermelon juice. When they go, they would know how expensive the cake is."

Lu Ming's eyes glistened with a nod. He was a child after all. When he heard that he was going to be admired by the whole class, he couldn't stop being excited. He nodded, "Thank you, uncle. I'm going to school now."

In school, Lu Ming did as Lin Shiheng told him. He boasted about how precious and delicious the cake was. After everyone admired Shanghai, he took the plastic knife and fork and began to divide the cake in person while the others begged for a bite.

If they had a good relationship with him, he would give them a bigger piece, and if they had a bad relationship with him, then they could only ask for a little. He wouldn't give any to his younger cousin unless he was willing to apologize.

This cake was very big, but there were many students in the class. Soon only one piece was left.

Lu Ming hurriedly refused to share any more. Other students who felt that the cake was delicious and hadn't gotten enough, asked him where he bought it. When he lifted his neck, he almost wanted to brag that he had bought it himself. However, he thought that the kind-hearted uncle, and he shouldn't wear away his good deed.

"It was bought by a kind uncle in a cake shop. I did a good job at helping him stand when he fell down. In order to repay me, he gave me the cake."

As he said that, he showed off the watermelon juice to others. "He also said that the store was doing promotions, buy a cake, get a cup of watermelon juice. And he gave me this watermelon juice too. But I can't share this with you, this was given to me by that kind uncle."

After Lu Ming said that, he took a gulp of watermelon juice. It was really delicious.

He glanced at his classmates and gloated with wonder: "It's delicious. It's much better than watermelon. Uncle said that watermelon juice alone can cost a lot of money."

After distributing delicious cake from Shanghai, Lu Ming suddenly became the most popular person in the class.

"Is it really so delicious? Can you give me a sip? I want a sip."

"Wow, Lu Ming, you're amazing. You could even do good deeds."

"No wonder my grandmother always said that good people gain good results. I will do good things too next time."

"Liu Ming, give me a bite. I also want to eat."

"Can't. I've only eaten a few bites."

Lu Ming guarded the rest of the cake warily and took a seat inside. He swallowed at the thought of the sweet and soft taste. But, at the sight of his cousin who was sitting in his seat sulking, he abruptly refrained from eating the last piece.

His cousin didn't apologize, he could only look at him enviously.

However, some students who ate only a little cake were not satisfied. They knew there was a cake shop before, but nobody ever ate one and they didn't want to buy it. They didn't expect it to be so delicious.

When school was over, they had to make sure to ask their parents to take some home.

By the way, there was also the watermelon juice that looks especially good.

When the school bell rang, the boss of the cake shop opened the cake shop as usual, but within ten minutes the door was opened again.

A fashionably dressed parent came in with his children. "Boss, if I buy a cake would I get a cup of watermelon juice?"

The boss was stunned and hurriedly replied, "sure, yes, yes."

He was pleasantly surprised. Before he could return from his excitement, two pairs of parents came in. "Boss, are you the one giving out a cup of watermelon juice with every cake?"

More and more people came in, the boss dismissed the employees before, and now he was overwhelmed. Doing everything by himself. In addition, the quantity of the cakes he had wasn't enough, so he could only propose to let the parents order first, and then come back to get it when it's ready.

Right now, it was rush hour, where children were picked up from school. The crowd in the cake shop naturally attracted the attention of other children.

"Mom, let's go in and have a look!"

"Dad, what's going on over there? Let's go see."

Some children were led out by their parents, and when they saw people who they knew well, they would show off for a while, "my mother ordered cakes and watermelon juice for me. It's from Shanghai. Do you know in Shanghai? The people there especially love to eat cakes, they're extremely delicious."

As soon as this was said, some of the children were all worried. Children of this age liked to compare with their peers. In addition, when they heard 'a delicious cake from Shanghai', they immediately anxiously asked their parents to come in and take a look.

In such a short period of time, the boss took more than 20 orders at once, while many people crowded outside to come in. Originally, the parents were only pestered by their children to come to the cake shop to see what was so interesting. When they saw that so many people wanted to go, their children were in a hurry. They pulled their arms and insisted on going inside, fearing that all the delicious cakes would be bought by others.

At that time, the boss received money for advance orders.

He was both happy and curious.

How did that man do it?

Maybe his watermelon juice was really delicious?

The cake shop was full with business, and Lin Shiheng was getting more and more commissions. His watermelon juice had been sold out on the first day, and he was preparing to return with a bulging purse.

Lin Shiheng stayed in the city for two days in total, making money that many villagers couldn't earn by working hard for a year. Before going back, he calculated that he was still a little short from his target, and then pulled the cake shop owner to 'chat'.

"Right now, even if I don't help you with more publicity, the whole city knows that there is a cake shop that many people like down here, and both children and passionate young people would be proud of buying from your cake shop. But, people who see you make so much money would follow suit, and within three months, other cake shops will open in this town."

The cake shop owner, who didn't dare to sleep all night for fearing that this was all a dream, immediately panicked.

He certainly had no problems with his own craft. When making cakes, he always paid attention to quality and never resorts to deception. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to open a shop in his hometown. He only had his craft and little business sense. Even if he had not been able to earn money before, he accepted it. Now that he had earned money by Lin Shiheng's help, how could he be willing to return to the days when he didn't earn anything like before?

"Brother, your brain is flexible. Please help me. What can I do to make money like today?"

Lin Shiheng nodded, "I am just an ordinary countryman, how can I think of a way to do this? Uh, older brother, what's your surname?"

When the shopkeeper finished, he remembered that the two were not familiar at all. He introduced himself and said, "ah, what was I thinking… we haven't met formally yet. My name is Chen Yangming. I am a native here, and I usually live in the store. I haven't asked this brother his name…"

"My surname is Lin, Lin Shiheng, from the county, not too far. I recently wanted to go to Shanghai, to sell watermelon and earn money."

"You dare to wander in Shanghai at such a young age? Younger brother has courage."

Chen Yangming praised him, and he didn't mind seeing Lin Shiheng a little bit happier.

In his heart, since Lin Shiheng could make a dying shop prosperous, he must be a man of great skill. Although Chen Yangming himself wasn't so good at judging, but he knew what kind of people he should follow.

When he went to Shanghai, he was already 31 years old. People of that age weren't as good in finding jobs as those young people. In the end, it was his skills in seeing who to fawn over that helped him fawn over the manager of the cake shop, even before he was arranged to work in the cake shop.

There were many apprentices following Master Fu, learning to bake. They were much younger and wiser than him. However, only Chen Yangming sincerely regarded Master Fu as Master. He buys him gifts at festivals, and he also buys gifts for him wherever he goes. He also needs to bring some special local products to Master Fu when he went home. Therefore, the Master was good to him and taught him all his skills. This time, when he said that he would go back to his hometown to open a shop, the Master also specially lent him some money.

Chen Yangming didn't feel that he was fawning over someone to get an advantage. He just felt that the person who treats others with sincerity would treat themselves with sincerity too. Now that he wanted to get good ideas from Lin Shiheng, he would naturally want to be sincere.

"Let's see… brother, didn't you say you were going to Shanghai? There are so many people and excessive prices in Shanghai. It costs a lot every month. This older brother will help you out with some travelling expenses. Thank you for helping me today."

Lin Shiheng motioned with his hand, and his face was slightly embarrassed. "Eh… how can I be so shameless? I'm just trying to help you come up with an idea. I've already got the commission before. How can I ask for your money?"

The more he did so, the more Chen Yangming felt Lin Shiheng was magnanimous and unwilling to accept the money, without even looking at it.

He took the money from the cupboard and shoved it into his hand. "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have earned the money. This is also a thank you. You can take it."

"I couldn't, I couldn't… er, older brother. Look at you… what are you doing?"

When the two pushed and pushed, Chen Yangming finally put the money into Lin Shiheng's arms with his 'great strength'.

Chen Yangming looked at him expectantly. Obviously, the young man was not a thick-skinned, when he took his money, his face immediately blushed in embarrassment. He was hesitating a few times, but took it.

"Older brother, to tell you the truth, I do lack some traveling expenses. I am really short of money, but I feel guilty just holding your money like this. How about, if I give you an idea. Think of it as if you paid for an idea. If it doesn't work, I'll give you the money back. What do you think?"

Chen Yangming agreed almost immediately.

This little brother is true and sincere. If this idea works, and he makes money like today every day, then he was the one who would earn more money. If this idea doesn't work, the money would be returned back and he could still make it himself.

Seeing him agree, Lin Shiheng didn't hide anything anymore.

In fact, it was quite simple. That is, he taught Chen Yangming to restrict the sale of the most expensive cake in the store.

Only five are sold in a day, first come, first served. Even if you add money, you could only wait until the next day.

Write some more advertising words, and buy an advertising space in the newspaper.

Something like 'XX Cake, the taste of love.'

"Older brother, don't worry. The more you restrict the cake, the more people will buy it. But, you must remember that you can't sell it even if you are offered more money. Of course, if someone offered tens of thousands, it could be sold."

"This is my contact information, if it doesn't work, you should come find me. I will give you the money back."

Chen Yangming listened in bewilderment, but he still took it down carefully. Hearing this, he hurriedly motioned with his hand, "We are all sincere people. How can I receive your idea and still ask you for a refund? You can use the money at ease. We are good friends. You can come to me if you're short of money again."

Lin Shiheng got on the motorized three-wheeled cart and drove back, with money in his pocket. Chen Yangming, who had just handed him the money stood there, waving goodbye with admiration and gratitude.

The first bucket of gold was completed, but this bucket of gold had other uses than travelling expenses.

This tricycle was relatively shabby. The noise from driving weren't unusual for town residents, but when it arrived in the county, a group of people were looking at it.

Lin Shiheng drove all the way to the street where people were selling vegetables. Ke Jialing, who was sitting beside her parents, reading a book at the booth, looked up at the noise and paused the next second.

The man sitting in the driver's seat of the tricycle stopped and winked at her. Ke Jialing's face turned red and she bowed her head, somewhat embarrassed.

"Liu Zi."

Liu Zi, who had seen the cart's shadow long before she did, immediately greeted him with "Eh, Shi-ge, you're back!"

"Go, return the cart for me."

Lin Shiheng got off of the tricycle, gave Liu Zi a pat on the shoulder. "Did you take care of your sister-in-law?"

"Yes, yes, took care." Liu Zi immediately showed a serious hardworking expression, "Shi-ge, are you worrying about my work? Of course, I took care of her."

"Good, I'll note down your hard work."

"By the way, remember, it isn't an easy relationship for your sister-in-law and me. Don't let my future old father-in-law and mother-in-law became suspicious. If something is stirred up because of you, I'll make you an eternal bachelor."

After Lin Shiheng said so, and looked up and down at Liu Zi, who was dressed even more shabbily and untidier than he was. "Er, didn't I give you some money? Why are you still dressed so badly? You'll lose face for me if you go out like this."

"No, Shi-ge, my father, the old man at home, isn't very well, he has to take medicine. Rather than buying clothes, it's better to give it to my father, to buy medicine."

Liu Zi wasn't tall and strong, and he wasn't very good at fighting. Before, he was also a bullied dolt. He entered the eyes of the gangster group because the gangsters in the next county had wanted the watermelon land of Liu Zi's family, injuring his father. They also made a mess of the watermelon farm. This boy fought half to death. Just then, this gangster group passed by, they saw that the gangster group from the next county actually came to their place and took offence.

In the end Liu Zi, whose family was heavily in debt because of the tragic loss of the watermelon field, joined them in order to earn a living. Because of the same filial piety, the boss also valued him most, so he also had a bit of pride walking on the streets.

"Ok, you hurry return the cart, I'll go home. I also brought something for the aunt. Take care."

Liu Zi scratched his head dully. He knew Lin Shiheng hated the Lins.

Why would he buy something for her?

This doubt was immediately answered when Lin Shiheng walked to the fish stall of the Ke family.

He said, we bought things to see the aunt, it turns out the aunt was this stall's seller.

Old Man Ke, who was just quietly looking at the two of them, saw Lin Shiheng who was walking toward him. He panicked, fearing that the ruffian would do something about their small stall.

"Weigh up two fishes for me."

Lin Shiheng looked natural and pointed to the fattest fish at the stall.

Old Ke didn't dare utter a word. He picked up the fish and put it in a plastic bag. He felt pain at the bottom of his heart.

This is the biggest and fattest fish in the booth. It was still alive. Such a good fish is being seized by Lin Shiheng.

Although very reluctant, but the thought of how fearsome Lin Shiheng's brothers were, Old Man Ke still packed the fish and handed it over.

His fish.

The biggest and fattest fish.

Watching Lin Shiheng pick up the fish in front of him, Old Man Ke heard to him asking, just before the old man's heartache could reach a higher level. "How much is it?"

"How much… is it …?"

He replied like a parrot, while the young man who once had a rumor that he punched and killed an adult about him, also showed no impatience and nodded, as if he had a good temper and repeated, "tell me how much is it according to weight."

"Oh oh okay, I will weigh it."

As if in a dream, Old Ke took the bag of fish and put it on the scale. He didn't dare to add together the figures on the scale. Ke Jialing on one side saw that her father was nervous. She was afraid of her father, but she was so afraid of her boyfriend. She put down the book and went over to look at the figures and reported the figures honestly.

Old Man Ke was angry at the moment, this girl is too sincere, she didn't know how to subtract a bit.

What if Lin Shiheng thought it was too expensive, and take the whole fish without paying.

Fortunately, Lin Shiheng seemed to have no such plan.

The handsome young man with a slight ruffian appearance neatly pulled out a handful of money from his pocket and handed it out to Ke Jialing with pride in his eyes.

Ke Jialing looked at the several red notes of money and knew that he did it on purpose. She turned her back on her father and looked at her boyfriend angrily. She counted out the extra fish money and gave him the rest. "It's too much."

"Too much? Really? I didn't pay attention."

Lin Shiheng withdrew the money and winked at her.

Ke Jialing was both happy and nervous.

The two youths flirted for a second under the nose of Old Man Ke. Ke Jialing just sat back in her place and watched Lin Shiheng leave with the fishes.

At the side, Old Man Ke didn't dare breathe too loud. Only when he saw the tall and straight back moving away, did he dare to sit down, clutching his chest, and spoke to his daughter, "this Lin Shiheng looks quite reasonable. Why does he get along with those gangsters? Such a young man, also pretty good-looking, even if not working, people still need to be a stand-up man."

"Dad, don't say that. I think they are quite normal, aren't the gangsters in the next county so much worst?"

"True." Old Man Ke agreed and nodded. "Liu Zi in our street saw me pushing fish yesterday and came to help. I thought he wanted to help and ask me for fish later on, but he left after helping. He also smiled at me, I was so scared."

"Your mother also told me that when she came this morning, she slipped and no one helped. Liu Zi saw her hurt, he helped to pick her up and asked if she would like to go to the hospital with him. Do you think, these young people, who usually look fearsome, are actually warm-hearted in doing things?"

"But thinking about it, the child also came to our village to play when he was small. How lovely and honest he was back then, running behind a group of children every day…"

Liu Zi who just passed the back of the booth, turned red when he heard this.

He is not a good boy. He was small and weak. No one wanted to play with him. but he still wanted to play with him, that's why he followed them every day.

The reason for helping Mother Ke was because she fell at the street under his control. If Shi-ge knew what his future mother-in-law fell at the street under his control, it wouldn't end well for him.

After imagining Shi-ge crushing his skull with a smile, Liu Zi shuddered.

Otherwise, if he wouldn't be attending to them so nicely. He not only took care of the sister-in-law, but also to took care of the sister-in-law's family together, but considering the benefits from Shi-ge, Liu Zi's mouth hooked up a bit, and he smiled silently.

That's Shi-ge. He's very good.

I was beautiful, but he suddenly heard Old Man Ke feeling strange and said, "but this is a little strange, Liu Zi is recently so polite to your mother and I, but to others, he is still the same. This makes me a little uncertain, Jialing, you learned a lot of things, what do you think he's up to?"

Ke Jialing's cheeks flushed a long time ago, thinking of the day Lin Shiheng told Liu Zi to take care of her parents that day. She lowered her head with a bit of sweetness, gripped at the pages with her white fingertips, and said, "I don't know."

"Ah, you study so hard, but can't know these ah… When the stall is closed later, I will go to your Uncle Liu and inquire about it. Otherwise, I would always have a feeling that he is paying too much attention to our family."

Liu Zi crouched quietly behind the bushes, looking solemn.

What should we do now? He only took care of them, and that was a mistake.

Why not ask Shi-ge to come forward?

If Shi-ge abandons him for such a small matter, it wouldn't end well.

Remembering Shi-ge's earlier remark; that if Old Man Ke became suspicious, he would make him remain single for the rest of his life. Liu Zi's face turn bitter.

Offending Shi-ge was not good for him. But being good to only them would make them suspicious. This was really pushing him to a dead end.

Liu Zi crouched behind the tree, pondering and pondering. His thick eyebrows scrunched up really hard. He couldn't come up with a good idea.

"Ah!"

A loud exclamation sounded, Liu Zi raised his head, and a vegetable farmer who was carrying a load of vegetables to sell slipped not too far from him.

Their land was covered with mud. A few days ago, it rained and there was water on the ground. How could people not slip with this much mud? Therefore, every time it rained or a few days after it rains, there were plenty of people falling.

Liu Zi watched the vegetables in the vegetable farmer's box fall all over the ground, and the old man hurried to pick them up before he could stand firm.

It would have been nice if he hadn't gone up and taken advantage of him a few times before, but now, thinking about what Old Man Ke said just now, he suddenly had a flash of an idea. He came over to help him pick up the vegetables regardless of the surprised and scared sight of the vegetable farmer.

Wasn't he suspicious if he took care of them alone?

Then he should be so kind to everyone!

Moreover, he can't be kind to them alone, then let other brothers learn from him!

When the time comes, and the brothers treat these people well, no one would see if he treats the Ke family specially.

Hehehe, he was really smart guy!

Liu Zi hurried to Lin Shiheng village that night and asked his opinion.

Lin Shiheng was not surprised at all, praised Liu Zi for his flexible mind, and went to the county with him the next day. He called the brothers to start a meeting, and conveyed the idea that everyone should be a kind person and not so domineering as before.

"Why should we treat them well?"

In an instant, some gangsters were angry and spoke up, "We are as imposing as usual. Why do we have to live with our tails between our legs?"

The meeting was held in a dilapidated factory building, and there were some tables and chairs that others didn't want, one chair for each person. Lin Shiheng sat on the top chair, which was not broken and looked a little ornate. He put his feet on the table and looked at a group of gangsters, who were angrily expressing that they didn't agree.

Liu Zi didn't sit in a chair and stood behind him, massaging his shoulder for him. He sucked up to him. When he saw someone striking the table, he immediately glared at the guy.

"Why aren't you listening to Shi-ge?"

The bastard that hit the table had a face full of anger. "Shi-ge, you are the best among us. We listened to you, but us brothers are living well, there is no reason to do this so suddenly."

"Yes Shi-ge, aren't us brothers' prestige come from our ability to fight? If we do what you say, and greet the stall owners one by one, where would our prestige go? Who will listen to us in the future, and why suddenly do this? We need a good explanation!"

Liu Zi opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Lin Shiheng's outstretched hand.

The handsome and shabby man stood up and slapped the table.

Pa!

With this noise, a group of gangsters shook, even those who stood up just now swallowed and sat down slowly.

Fortunately, Lin Shiheng didn't directly hit people like they thought he would, but looked serious.

"Although our brothers work conscientiously every day, guard the safety of the county and protect the people with all their heart and soul; On the surface, others still regard us as gangsters."

"When we walk on the street, those people would hide from us when they see us. When we go shopping, before we open our mouths, they would take the initiative to give things to us, as if we were holding a knife to force them to give it for free. Let's talk about it, is this kind of treatment fair to those of us who have a sincere heart?"

One by one, the small gangster group members listened quietly. Their faces, which still looked afraid, gradually showed some approval.

Lin Shiheng continued, "everyone said that our brothers collected protection fees by force, but didn't we protect them? Once, those gangsters in the next county made trouble, didn't drive them away? Like Liu Zi and his watermelon field, targeted by those bastards from the next county; They wouldn't only trample on the watermelon field, they wouldn't only beat people. Liu Zi might have been killed a long time ago. We wouldn't have him as a brother!"

Liu Zi, who was massaging his back, like a minion to Lin Shiheng, felt sour in his eyes and remembered that it was these brothers who saved him when he was at his most helpless.

"Yes, Shi-ge, that's very kind of you."

"Although people outside talk about us as terrible as any monster, I know that brothers are warm-hearted. Otherwise, they wouldn't have saved me at the beginning."

At that time, the faces of several people who were involved in driving away the group of gangsters from the next county at the watermelon field, were a little unnatural.

In fact, they used to want to steal the watermelons and eat them. They didn't expect to bump into that group of people that was beating him up. When they did, they heard those people say that their county was the territory of those group of people. The brothers couldn't bear it.

They picked up weapons and directly came up to them.

Later, Liu Zi was accepted because his appearance of a daring fighter that day, making people feel like he was a real man. And he also came to give them watermelons every day.

Of course, no one said these words, so under Liu Zi's moving eyes, Lin Shiheng added.

"I mean to let everyone have a better attitude towards those villagers, and I didn't say I wouldn't let anyone collect the protection fee. Aren't we doing a good thing? Why can't they be grateful when we do a good thing?"

"Usually I go out with a smile on my face. If someone can't push a cart, I'll go up and help him. It doesn't take much effort. If there are thieves making trouble and smashing the stalls. It's not enough to catch people directly as before. What should I say after catching them?"

A group of gangsters listened stupidly, "Shi-ge, if you catch someone, just make him pay the money. What else should you say?"

Lin Shiheng sat back on the chair again. His long fingers crossed on the desk, while his good-looking eyebrows slightly stirred up, "It's not that easy, we said that we protect all the people here. If anyone dares to provoke the villagers again, he will be directly transferred to the Public Security Bureau if we catch them next time."

Hearing the name of the Public Security Bureau, the gangster's face immediately changed.

"Shi-ge, it shouldn't be as serious as going to the Public Security Bureau. When I see those uniformed people, I feel scared. Besides, we are all people of the underworld. Throwing people to the Public Security Bureau would offend many people."

"What underworld?" Lin Shiheng separated his hands and slapped the table again, with a dignified look. "Listen, this is the end of it. I've received news that there will be a big crack down. Originally, I wanted to let the brothers scatter to protect their lives. I just thought that it's not easy for you to support your family and make a living on your own. If we dissolve so suddenly after eating and drinking well, how would we continue? We may turn out like those dirty thieves, and steal things!"

The group of people who listened changed their faces, looking stupidly at him.

"Shi… Shi-ge, you don't mean… it's not only the people in the city?"

"You think the county would be okay? Not to mention the county, even the villages. As long as it's reported, it would still be investigated by the Public Security Bureau. If nothing was found, it would be okay. If they find something, it's a direct capture. Even the old or young. Then what would you do?!"

"It's too big for me to talk about. I've been holding it in my heart for many days. I can't eat well or sleep well every day. I went to the city yesterday to inquire about it."

Hearing this, Liu Zi asked doubtfully, "Shi-ge, didn't you go to the town yesterday?"

Lin Shiheng withdrew the arm he was massaging, his brow wrinkled tightly and his eyes full of worries. "Liu Zi, don't interrupt, talking about business."

Liu Zi pulled back his hand and listened to the other brothers who were equally worried.

"Yes, Liu Zi, don't interrupt Shi-ge. He's talking business."

"Shi-ge, leave him alone. Go on, we're not going to make a sound."

He can't talk about his grievance. He can only ask Lin Shiheng to continue, and help Shiheng massage his shoulders again.

Lin Shiheng's handsome face was full of solemnity, and his tone was serious. "I have thought about it day and night, and I finally came up with such an idea."

"Before we acted arrogantly and offended those people in the next county. If they sent someone down, that person would definitely report us. Even if they didn't report us, people in the underworld would at least have several enemies. When they report us, the people who investigate would naturally check it. And how would they check…?"

The expression of the group gradually turned serious after thinking for a while, "it must be asking the county people."

"Shi-ge, you mean… Make our reputation better, so that when the people above really send someone to check, and we are good to the villagers… they would certainly help us with some good words, so that we wouldn't have to worry about being caught."

Lin Shiheng nodded. "That's what I mean… "

It dawned on all of them.

"Shi-ge is smart!"

"Shi-ge, it was my fault just now. Please don't resent us brothers. I'll buy some good wine and food in a few days. We'll have a good drink to make amends to you."

"Doing it that way… we would treat people better in the future, and help them more. When something happens, they would be too embarrassed if they didn't help us. Shi-ge, you're a genius!"

Lin Shiheng's reserved hand waved, "not much, isn't it for our brothers?"

Standing behind him, watching the atmosphere change from tense to harmonious, Liu Zi: "…"

Wasn't 'being nice to everyone' a cover for sister-in-law's parents?

Why did it come to this?

He was in a daze and couldn't think about it, but he needed to think it through. Suddenly Lin Shiheng urged, "what are you doing? Keep massaging."

"Ah… oh, oh, yes!"

Liu Zi was so urged, his hands immediately moved, the original confused brain was blank, he forgot everything.

People in the county were surprised to find that the small gang in the county, who collected protection fees seemed to have changed overnight.

The protection fee was still charged, but they weren't as ferocious to people as before, and they were even smiling.

Especially those vegetable farmers who usually push their carts by themselves and struggled hard every morning when they push their carts uphill– If they meet those gangsters, they would come forward to help them.

If the vegetable farmers wanted to repay with vegetables, they would say since they have received the protection fees, helping them when they met difficulties was just a trivial matter.

The vegetable farmer was so shocked his jaw dropped. He went back to tell others about it, but no one believed him. Until more and more people were helped, a group of people was still dubious about the fact that the little ruffians became hot-blooded youth.

Especially one day, when a thief was caught by one of the ruffians when he stole something from a stall. In the past, if they caught one, they would beat him up and let him go after. At most, they would also swindle some money from the thief.

But this time, after grabbing the man and that ruffian directly pressed him to apologize to the stall owner. They also told a crowd of people who were watching the scene, "Coming here to steal, yet you don't even ask where you are?! This land is under our protection. These people are all us brothers' folks. Next time, if I catch you bullying our folks, I will beat you half to death and send you to the police. Locked up for 8 to 10 years, see if you still dare?!"

In the cheering of the surrounding villagers, the thief shivered with fright and hurriedly said a string of apologies before being let go.

This time, this event finally gave the villagers a feeling of reliability.

In the past, they had to solve all the problems themselves, but now they dared to go to these people who collected protection fees. As long as they have paid the protection fee, they would definitely get a fair response.

Since then, the number of petty thieves and perverts of this street had decreased exponentially. Even those who liked to scheme to get more freebies when buying didn't dare to do as they did before. After all, if he dares to start something, those vegetable farmers would directly shout at the top of their lungs. Then at the lightest, these people get would get a beating from the small group; at worst, they will get beaten more than once.

One has to know, the harder the perpetrators are beaten, the louder the people around the little ruffians would applaud and cheer. The ruffians who have recently felt how wonderful it was to be popular are desperate to be praised.

In just a few days, the atmosphere in the county completely changed.

The ruffian group, that people were afraid of in the past, has become popular with everyone. Now, nobody would say that they were hoodlums. Everyone would say that they are serious young men. After all, they were not forced to give the money. The reality proves, they would be protected after paying. For example, if there are things at the stall that couldn't be taken away at night, they could ask these men to help them keep watch. When they came back the next day, they could guarantee that all the things were still there.

Now, when people meet them on the road, they wouldn't hide from them anymore. Instead, they rush up to say hello; there's even an old lady who wanted to introduce someone to one of the good-looking gangsters.

Not to mention, the girl introduced by the old lady was really good. Although the family was a little poor and only lives with her mother, however, the girl was down-to-earth and didn't even mind that he's considered an unemployed person, delicate and pretty. On the first day they met, the guy was blushing and even had a spring in his step.

With him in the lead, this group of young men, who were just trying to get rid of the possibility of being in prison in the future, finally found another benefit of people liking them.

It was easier to find a girlfriend!

One has to know, before, let along finding a girlfriend, girls with even a little bit of beauty would hide when they see them. Mentioning this only make their heart even more depressed.

It turns out that doing good deeds could get them girlfriends!

This discovery made these young men feel addicted to doing good deeds, so they happily helped the people around them every day.

While when they are doing good things around the county, Lin Shiheng and Aunt Lin still haven't settled the matter of renting land.

Aunt Lin and Zhang Quezi are actually both willing. Their family is only short on land while they are both diligent. Of course, if they had more land, they would willing be willing to plant more. However, old lady Zhang instead disliked that Lin Shiheng wanted too high of a rent.

"Thirty percent won't work. It has to be ten percent, you two are only renting out the land but my son is the actual person taking care of it. Thirty percent for rent is too black-hearted."

This was what Widow Zhang said to Mother Lin. She was bold because Mother Lin was good to Aunt Lin, her sister-in-law, and at the same time knowing Mother Lin's temperament definitely won't tell these matters to her son.

As a result, Lin Shiheng only learned about the incident afterward from a brother in the village.

He didn't do anything else. He just directly told Mother Lin that since the talks couldn't be concluded, then he just wouldn't rent it out.

Either way, seeing how Widow Zhang was, it seemed that even if the land was rented out, his aunt wouldn't get any benefits.

Mother Lin always took her son as the decisionmaker. After hearing her son, she nodded and gave all the fields to her elder brother to farm.

Widow Zhang, who deliberately wanted to use Mother Lin to control Aunt Lin, became foolish.

Thirty percent for rent was not high within the village. After all, they had less land on their side, and the Lin family's land was good land especially bought by Lin Shiheng after making some money. Asking for 30 percent was only because they were relatives.

However, Widow Zhang was just that stingy, relying on Mother Lin's good temper and how she didn't like to trouble Lin Shiheng, tried to cut down the price. Unexpectedly, Lin Shiheng, who was usually not very interested in the village affairs, intervened this time.

She was so angry that she wanted to go to the Lin family and make a scene. As soon as she arrived in front of their courtyard, she heard Mother Lin exclaimed in surprise, "So much money, where did you get this from?"

Widow Zheng was startled, then hurriedly raised her head over the wall to see. Just in time to see Lin Shiheng put the money into Mother Lin's hands.

The red color of that stack of money pierced her eyes.

So much… So much… So much money!

So much money! Where did Lin Shiheng get it? This kid had been restless since childhood, Mother Lin said he had a job, but Widow Zhang didn't believe it. She went to the county several times and saw Lin Shiheng on the streets, walking around, dressed messily. She heard that he was connected with the group of gangsters in the county.

She looked on greedily and suddenly had a good idea.

Lin Shiheng has so much money, he definitely didn't care for those few acres of land. She could use the source of the money to threaten him to rent the land to her for free.

Lin Shiheng smiled and handed the money to Mother Lin, and took a glance at the sneaky figure outside the wall.

His eyebrow raised to a sharp arc and the corners of his lips slowly hooked up.

Widow Zhang didn't directly go in to threaten him, she was not stupid. She was only a widow and her only son had a cowardly temperament, which she even looks down upon. Lin Shiheng, this guy, however, was fierce, coupled with this much money– God knows where he got it from. If she threatened and this guy didn't stop there but directly killed her. What should she do then?!

Although she had never heard of Lin Shiheng going after the villagers before, however thinking of it from her perspective, Widow Zhang thought that if she had such a large sum of money, she would wish the whole world didn't know about it. If the source of the money was shady and someone knew about it, she might really eliminate them.

After listening secretly by the wall for a long time, there was nothing more than temporary coaxing his mother, saying that he had earned the money in the city. Widow Zhang scoffed in her heart.

They were all from the same village. How could she not know when Lin Shiheng had gone to the city?

How could he make that much money from only two days in the city?

So, this was only a way to fool his silly mother.

Waiting until the mother and son finally entered the house, Widow Zhang left the wall quietly. Wringing her eyebrows, she thought about what she could do to prevent Lin Shiheng from retaliating, while at the same time could still get their family's land.

What's more, she may also get a share of that money.

She firmly decided at the bottom of her heart that the money must not have been earned by Lin Shiheng from regular channels, and it's much easier to believe it was something shady. But the problem was that Lin Shiheng had such a poor temper, what if he kills her at that time?

Widow Zhang went home thoughtfully. As soon as she opened the yard door, she saw her granddaughter squatting on the ground, holding a twig and scribbling carelessly on the ground, reading the written words in a crisp voice at the same time.

She raised her eyebrows and took the branches from her granddaughter's hands. "Who taught you to write? Didn't I say you weren't allowed to learn to read with those village boys?"

The young girl dressed in the grey shrunk into a huddle, "Grandma, I want to read."

"What 'wanting to read'? A woman without talent is virtuous. This sentence was handed down by the ancestors. I can't even read, what are you reading for? Go cut the grass for pig feed and feed them! The work at home hasn't even been finished yet, yet you still have the nerve to play here!"

The girl was afraid of her, but looking at the crooked words she wrote on the ground, she implored in a low voice, "I've cut all the grass already. Grandma, please let me learn to read. When I know how to read, I'll make a lot of money for you."

"Bah!"

"You can make a lot of money as you are. I'll tell you, girl, don't have any idea about making money. When you grow up, I'll personally marry you out. I really don't know which bastard got these ideas into your head. Only so young yet always wanting to run to the city. Earn me the bride price, that's how you'll make money for me!"

"Well? What are those tears in your eyes? Today's grass is cut, what about tomorrow's? Hurry and cut them. If you don't cut it, don't think about eating tonight."

Aunt Lin had just came back from the field when she heard her mother-in-law's voice full of scolding. Just from hearing, she could tell it was directed at her daughter, she then hurried into the yard.

Sure enough, when she went in, she saw that Widow Zhang was cursing at her crying daughter.

"Mom, the girl is not sensible, don't get angry over her."

Looking at this scene, Aunt Lin felt a pain in her heart and quickly stepped forward to intervene. "Child, hurry go cut the grass."

As soon as Zhang Ya saw her mother her tears fell harder. She originally wanted to file some grievances, however, once she looked up, she heard this sentence. The light in her eyes fell, silently dropped her head, and walked out obediently.

Sure enough, her mother wouldn't help her.

Aunt Lin watched her daughter go out, sighed in relief. She carefully looked at her mother-in-law's complexion, and tentatively asked, "Mom, where did the girl offend you? She is young, don't worry about her."

Widow Zhang heard this and her arrogance grew even greater, changed to yelling at her daughter-in-law.

"She is young, she isn't obedient and isn't being taught. Everyone's really hoping that I would die. I shouldn't have believed your mother's gibberish at the beginning. It cost me a lot of money to let my son marry you. Every day you coax my son to work for you, even if you didn't give birth to a grandson, that's fine. The girl raised is also disobedient. Next time, I will go look for your mother and ask her if she has hatred toward me!"

She yelled and yelled, yet suddenly stopped.

Right… Old lady Lin and Lin Shiheng aren't on good terms either. Moreover, the old lady Lin is different from her. The old lady has sons and grandchildren.

When the Lin family split up, old lady Lin was the most ruthless to this daughter-in-law who had lost her husband and the grandson who had lost his father. After such a long time, Lin Shiheng still hasn't re-established their relationship.

However, whether he has or not, this old lady Lin is still his grandmother by blood. She can do these things so much more easily than indirect relatives like her.

Widow Zhang's eyes grew brighter and brighter, already forgetting to scold her daughter-in-law. She hurriedly turned and walked outside.

She went to find the Lins, who were all bastards and greedy for money but they were Lin Shiheng's real relatives and elders. Lin Shiheng had made a fortune, how could he not give some to the elders?

If he won't give, the Lins had so many people, how could they be afraid of him?

They were all in the same village. She soon arrived at the Lin family courtyard. The Lin's were considered one of the few large courtyards in the village, with a thriving population. This was also a point of envy Widow Zhang had towards old madam Lin; while she only had one son, old madam Lin gave birth to so many sons.

But thinking about it, if it weren't for having so many sons, and having a grandchild like Lin Shiheng wasn't rare, how would she drive Lin Shiheng out so ruthlessly at such a young age.

Widow Zhang rubbed her hands. In a rare moment of nervousness, she glanced left and right before going forward to knock on the door. After a while, someone inside opened the door. After a couple of words, Widow Zhang was invited in.

Neither of them noticed that after widow Zhang entered, a head peeked out from the relatively dilapidated wall opposite them. It was a small ruffian who usually followed Lin Shiheng in the village. He climbed up quietly and watched widow Zhang, who was pulling old lady Lin to talk in the Lins' yard. Then he quietly climbed back down, turned, and ran towards Lin Shiheng's house.

"Shi-ge, I really saw it. Widow Zhang was holding your grandmother's hand, not mentioning how affectionate they seemed, it looked like they never even had a disagreement about the bride price. I felt shivers when I saw widow Zhang's smile, she must be scheming something."

Lin Shiheng took a pair of shears and cut the weeds around the outside of his courtyard. He listened to the subordinate's report and nodded. "For these two people to come together, they are definitely looking to scheme against someone. They are not easy to deal with."

"Isn't that so?."

The man clapped his hands. "I was thinking, Shi-ge, you and them, are also considered relatives; I was afraid they wanted to join forces to calculate against you, so I quickly ran over to tip you off."

"Yes, I will remember this sentiment."

Looking at the grass that had been trimmed into sharp arcs, Lin Shiheng withdrew his hand with satisfaction, his handsome face squinted slightly and spoke with a smile, "What happened with the things I asked you guys to do before?"

At this moment, the young man in front of him, who was younger than him, looked sheepishly embarrassed. "I did what you asked me to do. I wasn't stingy in helping relatives. Now they look at me amiably and even said they want to introduce me to someone."

"Shi-ge, you told me before that we didn't have much contact. So I started to help a few times, now they are all good to me. Yesterday, my third aunt's home stewed chicken soup, she specially brought a bowl for me to drink. I have never drunk such delicious chicken soup in my life. Originally, when I saw the chicken soup, I also want to treat you to some. But once I smelled it, I unconsciously drank it all."

Speaking of this, his face was mixed with embarrassment and joy. He stretched out and scratched his head.

"They didn't care before because you didn't want to relate with them at all, thinking they only pity you because you have no parents. You rejected them, of course, they were not willing to associate with you. "

Lin Shiheng tossed his scissors back and the young man scrambled to catch it, "Relatives, this kind of thing, you'll become close after brushing your existence a few times."

"Of course, there are exceptions, those with a kind of abnormal thinking, always trying to take advantage of you or looking for you to do something for them every day. Then you don't need to be polite, just greeting each other is fine. "

The young man thought he was talking about himself and shook his head with a hint of happiness on his face. "My relatives are pretty good, not that kind of people. "

Lin Shiheng glanced at him and didn't say that he was referring to his own home.

"Shi-ge, in the afternoon, let's go to the county. I heard that there were another two brothers that found girlfriends, they said that they want to invite everyone to have a good meal together."

"No, I have something in the afternoon. You guys go."

He has been busy running around recently, either with renting the fields or in setting up the little bookstall for mother Lin. On such a rare day where he didn't go out, should quietly wait in the courtyard for guests to come.

Lin Shiheng didn't have to wait long before old lady Lin came with a walking stick.

One could say that the Lin genes really had both polarizations. Lin Shiheng himself was good-looking and handsome but old lady Lin had standard drooping eyes, an aquiline nose, and thick lips. Her face type also wasn't good, just standing there watching people would make people think she shouldn't be provoked.

However, she was normally in good health. Lin Shiheng hasn't seen this crutch after running into her so many times in the village. Today, however, she came to their house with a crutch.

At the sight of Lin Shiheng sitting at the door to bask in the sun, old lady Lin frowned and looked at her unworthy descendant. "The sky is clear, it's a good day to work. What are you doing sitting here?"

The young man sitting on the small bench raised his slender and handsome eyebrows, "You are?"

Old Lady Lin choked. She didn't expect that Lin Shiheng wouldn't play according to common sense.

"Who am I? I'm your grandmother."

"Grandmother?"

Lin Shiheng had an epiphany. "Oh, I remember! The grandmother who drove my mother and me out of the house with a stick when I was a child."

"What's the matter? Today is not my father's death day, even if this elderly would like to give a kowtow, aren't you a bit early?"

Old Lady Lin, who was thinking of saying a few more words, felt choked by Lin Shiheng's impolite attitude. She was used to being an elder at home, so how could she stand this attitude?

Besides, even if she drove people out, it was because she had already split up the family. Where's the reason behind having split the family, yet still bringing the child to come back and eat?

Old Lady Lin completely ignored that in the so-called separation, she only gave her daughter-in-law and grandson some food that couldn't even support them for a month. Instead, she only grudges that the grandson didn't know how to honor this old lady.

Since Lin Shiheng didn't give her face, she also didn't think about blood relations anymore.

Old Lady Lin straightened her face and appeared like she was singling out a culprit.

"When you were young, I had already found that you were a cunning person, already stealing food at an early age. I didn't expect you to be more courageous when you grew up, daring to touch such a large sum of money, yet not even afraid of being caught by the public security bureau and getting executed."

This was also what she often said to fool several grandchildren. The disaster that just passed heavily scared the villagers, especially Grandma Lin, such an old woman. It was exactly because this group of seniors was scared that they would avoid the topic. The type like Grandma Lin, who would take it out to intimidate younger generations, she was probably the only one.

Only she forgot that Lin Shiheng was no longer the child that anyone could bully. After hearing what she said, his face just showed a cold smile: "I didn't break the law, why would the public security bureau execute me?"

"You didn't break the law?"

Grandma Lin only thought that he was stubbornly holding on. "If you didn't break the law, where did you get the money?"

"Don't think I don't know that there are several red banknotes. On account that I am your grandmother, it's possible for me to not tell the police."

She said this ferociously, but Lin Shiheng only raised his eyebrows slightly after hearing it. He didn't say where the money came from but asked, "You would be so kind?"

"Just that if you still had traces left on you, it wouldn't be good if the police searched and found it. This would be better."

Thinking about the several red banknotes that Widow Zhang mentioned, a glimmer of light flashed in Old Lady Lin's eyes and she took more effort to put on a kind and benevolent face. "Give the money to grandma for safekeeping. Grandma is already so old, the police wouldn't dare to search me. When this critical period passes, you can then take it back."

Lin Shiheng twisted up his eyebrows as if he didn't believe Old Lady Lin very much, a pair of good-looking eyes staring straight at her. Staring at her until she felt weak, only then did he hesitate to ask, "If I gave it to you, you would still give it back to me?"

"Look at what a child like you is saying."

Seeing his attitude softened, Old Lady Lin waved her hand and said, "I am still your grandmother, would I harm you?"

Lin Shiheng's brow wrinkled even tighter. "That can't be ascertained. At that time, I almost starved to death, so my mother took me to your house to ask for some food. Yet without even giving a little, you just chased us out."

"If it weren't for you, this grandma, not caring for me, how would I become a ruffian?"

As soon as he spoke so frankly, Old Lady Lin's wrinkled face slightly stiffened.

In fact, she really had no relationship with this grandchild. After all, when he was young, Old Lady Lin was worried that her grandchild would come and bother her for something to eat, she would always hide herself.

After her grandson grew up and became a ruffian that everyone feared, Old Lady Lin had to hide away even more.

Although she would appear unaffected and justified every time she ran into people discussing the matter of her driving out her daughter-in-law and grandson, it didn't mean she didn't know how ruthless she was.

Furthermore, one could tell at a glance that Lin Shiheng bore grudges easily, therefore, naturally, Old Lady Lin would avoid him.

Because of this, in reality, she doesn't know much about Lin Shiheng. The extent of her understanding was what she heard people say when they were chatting in public, about how powerful Lin Shiheng was and what kind of ruffian he was. As for his character, she wasn't very clear.

Unexpectedly, while she was only acting, it seems like this incredibly fierce Lin Shiheng actually believed her.

Old Lady Lin couldn't help but feel pleased.

Just right. With so many grandchildren, she naturally knew that the more she ignores them, the more they would try to fawn over her.

Lin Shiheng, who lost his father when he was young and grew up with his useless mother, was naturally the same.

With such beautiful thoughts, she gradually relaxed her vigilance. She took back her ferocity and spoke in a low voice how pained and helpless she was when she drove the two of them away.

"At that time, all your uncles also had their children. As you were young, you would always get bullied by your cousins at home. Grandma wanted to look after you, but had to work, being so busy that I couldn't manage to help you. There was just no other way, so I had you and your mother separate from us. Although life would be a bit harder, at least you would be able to make your own decisions in your household. After the initial hardships, you would have been able to live more relaxedly."

As she said that, Old Lady Lin sighed and looked melancholic. "Look, isn't your family living well now?"

"What's so good?"

Lin Shiheng sneered, "I haven't eaten meat in days. I can't eat chicken even if I wanted to."

Old Lady Lin's eyes lit up. She was just worried that there was no way to rope in this grandson so that he would relax and give her the money, but he just offered it up himself.

Thinking of the old hen meticulously raised in her family that would lay an egg every day, Old Lady Lin hesitated for a second, gritted her teeth, and said, "How is that a problem? Grandma is raising so many chickens. If you want to eat, I'll kill one for you right now."

"Is that okay?"

Lin Shiheng's looked pleasantly surprised. "Aren't all your chickens laying eggs? Can you really give one to me? Don't you feel distressed?"

To be honest, it was still a little distressing.

After all, it was an old hen.

Even if the chicken didn't lay eggs, you could sell it on the streets for quite some money. And even if it couldn't be sold, if you stewed it for yourself, it was also a tonic for your health.

As soon as Old Lady Lin thought about this, the words Widow Zhang said flashed through her mind.

Quite a few red banknotes.

Yes… With so many red banknotes, what is an old hen worth?.

She considers this as: if one feels pained over the bait, how can one catch a wolf.

After trying to convince herself in her mind, Old Lady Lin firmly replied, "Isn't it just a chicken? You are my grandson, and I'm your grandmother. Let alone one chicken. Even a chicken a day, that also isn't a problem."

"A chicken every day is also okay?"

Lin Shiheng's eyes obviously lit up, he was a little interested. He simply stood up and said directly, "Let's go to your house and eat chicken now."

"Now… now?!"

Even if she was ready to sacrifice her chickens, Old Lady Lin didn't expect it to be so soon.

"Of course now."

After the handsome young man answered as a matter of course, the gaze he gave Old Lady Lin suddenly held a hint of suspicion, and even the tone that had improved slightly before, again lowered, "You're not trying to fool me, right?"

"Saying you wanted to treat me to an old hen, but in fact, you didn't want to give it to me at all."

Old Lady Lin's face stiffened again, she really did have this idea.

"Of course not, of course not. Why would I think something like that? Come, come, come, let's go home now. I'll immediately kill an old hen to replenish your body. Shiheng, you're Grandma's own grandson. Of course, Grandma dotes you. Don't listen to those gossiping women in the village talking nonsense. When you and your mother moved, you were too young to know all of those things. Grandma truly dotes you."

Towards Old Lady Lin's appearance of 'I'm sincerely telling you, I truly love you from the bottom of my heart,' Lin Shiheng chose not to comment and only faintly smiled.

This smile made Old Lady Lin pleased.

A young person is just a young person, so what if they are usually violently aggressive? As long as she uses her identity as his grandmother and deceives him with a few words, wouldn't it still be settled very quickly?

Old Lady Lin felt complacent in coaxing Lin Shiheng to leave the money in her care. As for Widow Zhang, who tipped her off about the news, she had no intention of sharing the money with her after she got it.

Originally, this was her grandson. The money her own grandson gave her due to filial piety, on what reason should it be given to someone with a different surname?

There was no such thing in this world!

Imagining those red banknotes in her hands, Old Lady Lin became more and more pleased, it wasn't an exaggeration to say that she had the feeling of walking on air.

The villagers, who ran into Old Lady Lin and Lin Shiheng on the road today, were very surprised at how the two, grandmother and grandchild, who had always been at odds with each other, were walking together amiably.

Did the sun rise from the west today?

Facing everyone's doubts, Old Lady Lin didn't want to explain to them. After all, valuables shouldn't be displayed; furthermore, she had no plans to return the money to Lin Shiheng. If people knew about it, what if Lin Shiheng asks these idle people to testify later?

Thinking such, Old Lady Lin just continued walking forward without even paying attention to anyone, at the same time whispering to her grandson, "Shiheng, you mustn't tell these people about your money. The less people that know about it the better. Grandma has already lived for so many years; I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice, you won't go wrong if you listen to me."

(TNote: Eaten more salt = has tasted the salt of life/ experienced more things.)

"Okay," Lin Shiheng easily promised. After a while, sure enough, someone with strong curiosity came up and asked, "Lin's, why are you here walking with the Shi youngster?"

"What do you mean by that? What do you mean 'why are you two walking together'? I'm his own grandmother and he's my own grandson. Is it strange for a grandmother and grandson to be walking together? How does it involve you!?"

Old Lady Lin's voice was terrible. When she speaks, she sounds as if she had sand in her throat. Yet if it was just this, it wouldn't have mattered. After all, there were always strong winds in their village, almost everyone has some throat problems. But she particularly likes to swear. When her messy voice and dirty words were mixed together, people were unable to understand a word and at the same time be thoroughly disgusted.

The tone of the curious person was originally quite good, but after she was scolded for asking, her complexion immediately turned poor.

She originally didn't want to ask any more questions but Lin Shiheng smiled and said, "My grandma said she would take me back to stew some chicken soup."

"Oh!"

The old lady immediately perked up. "Stewing chicken soup? Aren't all the chickens in your family kept for eggs? How come they are stewed now?"

Furthermore, it was stewed for the grandson who she never even cared about before. Who would believe that there was nothing to it?

Old Lady Lin was originally disgusted with the old woman's gossiping and asking questions as soon as they ran into each other on the road. But now she was delighted to hear her mention it.

She was just worrying over there being no way to show Lin Shiheng how much she, as a grandmother, dotes on him.

Thinking of this, she looked lovingly at Lin Shiheng, who stood in place with a smile. While smiling, she said, "Isn't this just because my Shiheng wanted to have some? A young man of his age should eat more good food. Look, he's already so tall and yet so thin. Of course, those who don't care certainly wouldn't think much about it. However, as his grandmother, I'm so distressed. Old hens are the most nourishing. If Shiheng would get healthy after drinking it, I would be relieved."

"I really couldn't tell that you still care about your grandson. The last time your family killed a chicken seemed to be two years ago? I remember at that time your little grandson just sat on the ground crying hungrily for the meat. You didn't even look at him and just put the meat in your own mouth. That scene… Tsk tsk."

"Can that brat compete with my Shiheng?"

Hearing her mention the past, Old Lady Lin's complexion immediately changed and pulled Lin Shiheng forward. "Shiheng, let's ignore her. Let's go, Grandma will stew chicken soup for you."

Although her strength was great, for Lin Shiheng, it was like an ant trying to pick up a big tree, only, he didn't show it. Obediently, he let Old Lady Lin pull him forward, yet still turned his head to the gossiping old lady and said, "Granny Fang, I'm going now. See you later."

"See you later."

Granny Fang stood in place while leaning on her walking stick, watching the two leave with a strange feeling in her heart.

How can these two who had a falling out for nearly 20 years reconcile so suddenly?

Facts have proved that it was indeed impossible for people who have fallen out for nearly 20 years to suddenly make peace.

Old Lady Lin thought about Lin Shiheng's money, and after taking the person home, she really entertained him thoroughly. Lin Shiheng was also very cooperative, not only taking advantage of the chance to eat, but also praised that the chickens were well raised, and ask whether he could take two of them home.

What else can Old Lady Lin say?

She still hoping for Lin Shiheng to give her the money.

Therefore, with a kind smile on her face, but deep distress in her heart, Lin Shiheng walked out of the yard with two chickens as she turned to see him off with a keen smile. "By the way," mentioning the money to Old Lady Lin, "This money is for my business, and it's impossible to give it to you because of filial piety."

Old Lady Lin directly froze.

She never thought that, after all those good things said, chicken eaten, and even letting two go; it would end up like this.

"You tricked me!"

"You… this… I…"

Old Lady Lin opened her mouth to scold, but before her emotions even finished brewing, Lin Shiheng at the entrance of the courtyard slowly moved the chicken from his left hand to his right hand and pulled out a knife from his side pocket.

Old Lady Lin's high-pitched curse was immediately cut off in the middle, and there was no sound for a moment.

"Grandma." The young man in front of her was still smiling, just like the gentleness from earlier when he was eating chicken and drinking chicken soup. "I have only killed animals with this knife. If we add your blood too, it will be considered filthy."

"It's best for you to be obedient, stay at home, and don't come out. Otherwise, in a bit, we can't be sure where the knife would end up. Do you understand?"

"Also, don't come to my house again. If you really want to, however, remember to bring a chicken. Otherwise, this chicken killing knife may end up on your neck."

Old Lady Lin was afraid of death.

She has always been afraid of death, otherwise, she would not have been so eager to throw her daughter-in-law and little grandson out to save food during their most difficult time.

She had felt that she had more than enough children and grandchildren, and she would not mind having one less. As for a granddaughter-in-law, her son was already dead, what would she need a granddaughter-in-law for?

Now, her grandson, who was thrown out like garbage by her, pointed a knife at her.

Right now, it was broad daylight, the young and middle-aged are working in the fields. Even children were out cutting grass somewhere and digging earthworms to feed their livestock. Therefore, there were only some old ladies wandering around in the village. Right now, at the old Lin family's front gate, there really are no other people except for her and Lin Shiheng.

If Lin Shiheng really stabbed her with a knife…

Mrs. Lin just stood blankly still and watched Lin Shiheng leave with her two chickens. After a long time, she finally regained her senses, fell, and sat down on the ground with a bang.

She… she didn't… didn't get the money, yet lost three chickens!?

Such a sin!

Old Lady Lin felt distressed for her three chickens and cried her eyes out, but she still didn't dare go to Lin Shiheng to make trouble. When she was pointed at with a knife, the cold-blooded gaze of her grandson made her feel cold all over.

She had a hunch.

If she continues to entangle him, Lin Shiheng may actually cut her down.

Old Lady Lin was so frightened that her legs grew weak, and so rested in the yard for a while. Before the people in the field even came back, Widow Zhang couldn't wait and went out the door to find out whether Old Lady Lin had succeeded.

As a result, before she arrived at Old Lin's house, she ran into Lin Shiheng with the two chickens.

She plucked up her courage and asked where the chickens came from. Lin Shiheng with smiling eyes replied, "My grandmother gave it to me, happily."

When he finished speaking, he left first, leaving Widow Zhang to contemplate alone.

Who didn't know that Old Lady Lin was the stingiest in the village? If she was willing to give Lin Shiheng the chickens voluntarily, she must have gotten the money. Otherwise, how could she be so generous?

It really was as she had predicted, if his own grandmother acted, it would definitely succeed.

Thinking of the benefits that Old Lady Lin promised, Widow Zhang delightedly went to the Old Lin house to ask directly.

"How is it, Madam Lin? Did Lin Shiheng stop being stubborn?"

"I heard that you also gave him two chickens. How much did he give you? You agreed to split with me."

"Get out!"

Old Lady Lin was already full of anger and was distressed by her chickens. It just so happened that Widow Zhang had to rush and remind her again. She exploded immediately; she slapped the table, stood up, and screamed at her to leave.

Widow Zhang was stunned for a bit. "What do you mean? After you got the money, you forgot whose credit it was for telling you about the money? If it weren't for me, would you know Lin Shiheng had the money?"

"What f**king money?! That brat didn't give anything while he still took my chickens. You are not a good thing either. Don't think I don't know what's on your mind! Get out!"

Widow Zhang was not someone to mess with either. Hearing these curses, her expression immediately changed and began to scold Old Lady Lin while holding her hips.

"Well, now that you've got the money, you've turned your back on people, haven't you?!"

Lin Shiheng took the two chickens to the county and let his brothers stew and share. When he returned at night, he listened to Mother Lin's strange story: "Your aunt's mother-in-law and your grandmother actually got into a fight today. Several people tried separating them, but couldn't even pull them apart. I heard that their injuries weren't light. They were brought home but were still cursing while lying in bed. What kind of deep hatred caused such a thing?"

Under the light, the even more handsome young man smiled and put his luggage in the suitcase. "Whatever they do, it's none of our business."

"That's true."

Mother Lin responded and was even a little happy for her sister-in-law. After all, Widow Zhang was beaten until she's stuck in bed, she would naturally have no time to bully her daughter-in-law and granddaughter.

She dropped the gossip and turned her head to look at her son, "Shiheng, when are you going to head out?"

All the things at home are almost done, reckon it is almost time to leave. Thinking about it, there's really a bit of unwillingness to part.

"I'll wait a bit. There's still one last thing that hasn't been taken care of. After it's taken care of, I can rest assured when I leave."

Lin Shiheng closed the suitcase, raised his head, and smiled at his mother.

Mother Lin asked curiously, "What's the matter? Haven't you taken care of everything at home already?"

"It's regarding my brothers, when I'm not at home, I have to request them to take care of you for me."

"I'm this already old, how would I still need to be taken care of? You can go work with peace of mind, don't worry about me. I've been going out every day these days, meeting with the Ke's. The chat has been going pretty well. I also met that Jialing child a few times. She is a good child."

When talking about her future daughter-in-law, Mother Lin immediately felt spirited and assured her son with a pat on her chest, "Shiheng, you can rest assured that I will definitely help you get through to Jialing's parents, but you must also work hard. Jialing has good grades and will definitely go to college in the future. Although you two young people have a good relationship, you have to do a bit better to be worthy of her, you know?"

Lin Shiheng didn't mind his mother's nagging at all. He smiled and nodded, "Mom, I know. You go to bed early, don't worry. I will work hard, not only for Jialing in the future but also for your old age."

Mother Lin immediately looked at her son's tall figure, feeling comforted in her heart and feeling that her son was really becoming more stable.

Sure enough, having a girl you like pushes you forward.

She made the bed and was about to fall asleep, but she was still thinking before going to bed, Shiheng said there's still one last thing to take care of. What could it be?

On the third day, the county suddenly announced a comprehensive rectification. The government sent people with the county public security to sweep the streets to catch hooligans.

The small group led by Lin Shiheng was reported, and the police took to the streets to arrest them. They thought they would at most meet the stubborn resistance of the ruffian group.

But it turned out, this small group didn't resist and followed them honestly. Instead, a group of people who, in their view, were 'poor people oppressed by the small gangsters' rose up and wanted to fight them. Each person holding hands, holding winter melons and eggs, blocking them from moving forward.

"On what account are you arresting people?"

"You can't go. Leave those people behind."

These men in uniforms, with a righteous look on their faces, who felt that they were eliminating societal harm went into a collective daze.

The leader came forward and said a few words, "Folks, you do not have to be afraid. We already have these people under control, they can no longer force you to pay money. No matter what, we will definitely protect you. "

What were supposed to be comforting words made the crowd even more furious.

"What do you mean 'force us to pay'? We willingly gave the money!"

"I gave money, who was forced to give it? They helped me with my work, helped me push my cart, and also helped me watch the stalls. If things are lost, they would also help me search. Who was forced to pay?!"

This was a stimulating argument.

"Public security comrades, you can investigate. These are good kids! They have not done any bad things. When we pay money, it's equivalent to hiring. Is it against the law to hire someone now? Need to go to jail?"

This was a calm analysis.

"An-ge, Comrade An-ge, my husband really is a good man. Every time everyone thanks him and sends him vegetables, he would still refuse to accept it. He says he couldn't take a single advantage from the people. This is right by the party and right by the country. Comrade, let him go. Our child is only half a year old this year and cannot live without a father."

This was a family member kneeling on the ground crying.

The scene was chaotic. The people who were originally passing by to sell vegetables also stopped one by one and were full of anger and agitation.

There is also the child, whose father had also been captured, crying while being held by his mother for his father.

A group of public security people looked at a loss.

Aren't they here to crack down on criminals and protect the country from violence?

Didn't the informant say that these ruffians did a lot of bad things and forced the common people to pay up?

They are here to catch the bad guys, aren't they?

Why did it look like they were the bad guys now?

The public security officers carrying out orders this time were basically all young people with a strong sense of justice. There are quite a lot of people in this county, a place where plenty of snakes and dragons mingle. Coupled with the poverty of the county, the public security bureau was naturally not configured to do anything large-scaled. With few hands and a big area, the fear of accidentally encountering a difficult task while on duty, and only able to arrest some petty criminals, it could only be considered too conservative.

This time was a rare occasion, the upper echelon sent out a missive directly and explicitly saying that there was no need to give anyone 'face;' just directly arrest, convict, and sentence those people – the whole package.

But not having to give any 'face', does that include these simple civilians?

The young public security officers began to wonder if they were arresting the wrong people, but looking back at these people they arrested themselves, it was indeed a gangster group.

They just wouldn't let the men go, so the people just wouldn't make way. Finally, an older public security officer decided not to do anything rash. After all, their duty was to catch the bad guys, not to go up against civilians.

This is a special period right now. If you really caught the wrong person and it was then reported to the higher-ups, you might not be able to keep this stable job.

The older public security officer instructed a few words and ran off to find the leader.

When the leader came over, the scene stunned him, he turned and asked a subordinate, "You guys aren't blindly arresting people for the sake of the task, are you? Why do all the villagers look so agitated?"

"Really didn't!"

The older officer was quite agitated himself, "Isn't neighboring county also doing a similar operation? A gangster that was caught said he'd like to redeem himself by good service and told us about how many people were in this small group and their activity route in our county. The local comrades all specifically asked about it and after confirming that they were indeed taking money from the people, only then did we come with them to arrest."

His voice was not loud, but the vegetable farmers who were close to him heard it very clearly, and they were anxious when they heard it. "How can you believe what those gangsters in the next county said? They used to come here to harass us just because of their large numbers. They destroyed all of Liu Zi family's crops, causing his father to be in debt and he even fell ill due to the anger. He's still in bed."

The villagers who didn't hear these words immediately got agitated as well and a group of people pushed forward noisily to argue.

"It's their group of people that are black-hearted and green-eyed, not only bullying people in their county but also coming to our county to cause trouble. If it wasn't for this group of young men taking action, how much money would we lose?"

"We paid the money voluntarily. This group of young men helped us beat up those hoodlums, and scare them away. To help us, all of them would patrol the streets without eating. We pay them just so they can eat!"

"Public security comrades, you are all comrades of the country, but you can't listen to those villains!"

If it was a small group of people who cried foul, perhaps the police would still think that this was their accomplices helping them to commit perjury. But now, almost half of the people in the community are here. The excitement and anger on their faces were not false. Now, even the leader rather believed that it was the group of gangsters, who had been driven away, that held a grudge and took this opportunity to try to get these people into prison.

He held out his hand and tried to comfort the villagers in front of him. "Don't worry. Don't panic. We just want them to come back with us for investigation, just for investigation. If there is really isn't a problem, they will definitely be released."

"We still need to bring them back to the station."

It was fine if he didn't say this but when he did, the villagers grew even more anxious.

"They're all good lads. You can't take them away!"

"When my dad was younger, he only kissed my mom on the street; at that time, they also said they'd bring him back to the station to investigate, but then they just directly locked him up."

"No, you can't take them away! They are all good people!"

The crowd was getting more and more agitated, their faces full of anger, began closing in on the public security officers. Surrounded by so many people, the public security officers also got nervous, quickly stretching out their hands, "Step back! Step back!"

"Everyone, let's not get excited. Take a step back first."

No one listened to what they said, but at this time, an older-looking young man of the small group who had been silent all along became anxious.

He grew up looking a bit repressed, plus he appears older and was a ruffian, so there haven't been any girls interested in him. But, after listening to Lin Shiheng's words and starting to help out, he felt the joy from helping others and getting grateful looks and compliments.

Even if the officers didn't come, he planned to continue being a good person. It had been less than a month of keeping a good character, but he has already found a partner in this one month.

She was a young widow, slightly older than him, but they still look about the same age in person. Her experience was quite similar to Mother Lin's. After her husband died young, she was directly separated by her husband's family and lived alone with her daughter. Because she had no skills, she could only grow vegetables and sell them. Usually, the villagers, after seeing her difficulties, will also help her out a little. Ever since this young man began to do good deeds, he had been eager to help people push their carts. He also helped this young widow several times. After a few times, the two of them started to have a seedling of feelings.

They're both the kind of people who aren't very well off, yet they were both eager to have a family. After being together, fearing the possibility of another change, they simply settled down at lightning speed. The child already changed to calling him "Father."

Typically, it is very difficult for ordinary people to get close to children who aren't related to them by blood. This young man, however, was different. He had a good mentality and had been influenced by Lin Shiheng's few words. 'I really envy you. How nice it is to have your own daughter already. It's nice to have a sweet little cotton-padded jacket. In the future, you can enjoy more good things.' So the more he looks at this daughter he picked up, the more affectionate he felt. After everything settled, every time he would go out to do something, he would her with him. The two of them got along well with each other and seemed no different from a real father-daughter duo.

(TNote: little cotton-padded jacket= a metaphor for loving and warm, young, close females of the family. It is often said that the maiden girl is the intimate cotton-padded jacket of the father and mother.)

He really loves this daughter, and the child also adores this father who loves her very much. Therefore, when she was brought over by her mother, she cried and called for her father and blocked the officers from leaving.

Now everyone's rushing up and everything was a mess. However, she was small; although she was held by her mother's hand, watching her wobble left and right, unable to stand still, and also being pushed around, the poor father's anxious heart was about to jump out.

He couldn't help holding out his hand to stop them, saying, "Don't crowd, don't go forward."

Don't overcrowd my daughter…

This appearance of trying to stop the crowd was seen by the public security officers. It was true that these people who had been obediently cooperating with them since they were arrested were now helping to calm the crowd.

In their mind, they recalled that they heard when the neighboring county was arresting people, it was very chaotic. The hooligans were fleeing in different directions and some even assaulted the officers. Then looking at this group of people they arrested: all of them were incredibly cooperative, no one cursed at all, instead just allowed themselves to be taken away.

Such a high level of mindfulness really doesn't seem like gangsters.

If they knew that these policemen thought so, this group of people would have laughed out loud.

They didn't curse anyone because Lin Shiheng knew there was going to be something big happening early on, having guessed the result, naturally, they were able to calmly accept it.

Either way, everyone is a local, if you get caught cursing, what if there was retaliation? Even if you wanted to run, can you run faster than the officers in a police car? Instead, it's better to follow along honestly, their efforts during this time would not be in vain anyway. And even if they do get arrested, Shi-ge didn't get caught. Surely, he could find a way to save them.

The public security officers who didn't know the truth were all hesitant. Facing this beautiful misunderstanding, they also lost their initial excitement and looked towards their leader.

The leader obviously felt a headache. He looked at the people who didn't move because they were blocked by their 'own people' and who only looked at them with angry eyes, and then looked at the group of tattered and honest ruffians who didn't look like bad guys either.

Gritting his teeth, he waved his hand, "Release them."

Seeing the surprise and excitement on the faces of the villagers who thought they were being oppressed, he confirmed his previous thoughts even more.

There must have been a mistake.

If they caught the wrong people, then they caught the wrong people. Even if they made a special trip, they couldn't help but feel apologetic about it. The leader thought about it, turned to the ruffian group, and kindly advised, "This time we were the ones that didn't investigate clearly and wronged good people. But right now, the country is vigorously cracking down on gangsters and criminals. Although the original intention of collecting money to do things for the villagers is good, this kind of behavior could still easily make people think of gangsters. Don't do it again next time. If anyone comes to your county to make trouble, you can control the situation first, then send someone to the public security bureau to call us to deal with it. That way. there won't be another misunderstanding."

The group of people who just had faces full of happiness was now at a loss. If they didn't receive any money, how would they eat?

But it was a special situation right now, they can't just grab the public security officer and say 'no, we have to collect money!' They eventually complied "Yes, yes, thank you, public security comrade! We won't do it again. Sorry to have bothered you and wasted your time like this."

"You're welcome. Next time you need anything, just come to us. Let's go, we're withdrawing!"

The public security started to withdraw, the people were less emotional and gave way. The leader took the lead in front, pinching his brows with a bit of a headache.

No matter who it was that worked hard to bring people here and then ended up with a wasted trip, they wouldn't be in a good mood.

"I remember in the directive from above, there is a penalty for false accusations. Tell the next county to remember to punish the punk who reported this blindly. I remember that the lowest penalty for false accusations was three years, wasn't it?"

The man who was following him closely at the side promptly said, "They're already going to jail. I don't know if they can add more years in that situation."

"I think it could be added. Nevermind, I will personally go to the next county to explain this matter. This situation is already well-known here. If there isn't any punishment for falsely accusing someone… What if in the future those hooligans who get caught clamber around indiscriminately to get revenge on someone they used to have a grudge against, what then?"

"The amount of trouble and time we have to spend on a single report, like this time… It must be punished severely!"

When the uniformed men left, the ruffian group forgot to think about how to make money in the future, instead, they hurriedly thanked the people around them.

To be honest, no one in the ruffian group could remain unmoved when they saw this group of villagers, who they had helped, stop the public security to keep them from being arrested.

It is precisely because they were moved that they felt more guilt in their hearts, that they treated everyone well only to deal with the public security.

Both sides spoke for a while before the crowd gradually dispersed, those who had relatives left first to comfort their loved ones, and the remaining bachelors looking at each other and finally voiced their worries.

"Not accepting protection fees. What will we do in the future?"

"Right! We don't have any skills or capital, we're broke and possess nothing. Aside from fighting, what else do we know?"

Liu Zi hasn't left. His dad was old and sick and had been staying home to recover from his illness, so he probably didn't come even after such a long time because no one told him. So, Liu Zi simply stayed to discuss with everyone.

"I inquired about finding work when my family was in trouble before. There's easy work for little pay. For more pay, you'll have to work harder and it's also farther from home. A round trip will take a lot of effort, and will be busy for most of the day, from morning to night."

As soon as he said this, the others were instantly at a loss for what to do.

They were all people that were used to freedom, how can they stand working hard the entire day?

"The only other thing that can be done is to sell things. But you've seen the vegetable farmers on our street; first of all, you would have to tend to your family's land. Do you all know how to do that?"

Only two people in the group said they knew.

For an era where having land was more important than owning a house, a large number of them chose to become ruffians, whom people despise and fear, simply because they didn't have land.

Oh, not quite right. Ruffians, who were once looked down upon and feared.

Everyone messily started to put forth ideas but were all rejected one by one.

By the end, everyone's self-confidence was completely wiped out.

They hadn't realized until now that they, once so dashing and unrestrained, who came with the wind and went with the rain, were such losers who couldn't accomplish anything.

Finally, Liu Zi tentatively came up with an idea, "Why don't we ask Shi-ge if there's any solution?"

"Shi-ge is the smartest and our boss, so he might be able to figure out a way out."

Everyone's expression suddenly froze.

"That's right! How did we forget about Shi-ge? This time, if it wasn't for Shi-ge's reminder, we'd be squatting in jail right now."

"Previously, I thought Shi-ge could only fight, but who knew his mind was so flexible."

"Okay, Shi-ge typically comes to the county in the afternoon. We'll ask him at that time to give us some advice. Then we may be able to do something about it, but if it's really not possible… Didn't Shi-ge say he wanted to go to Shanghai before? After all, I have nothing tying me down, I may as well go with him. Even if I have to bear hardships outside, if I follow Shi-ge, my heart will be more at ease."

At the thought of Lin Shiheng, their hearts started to settle and their facial expressions lost the previous fluster. After discussing to meet at the usual place in the afternoon, they all scattered.

Meanwhile, as time passed, the entire countryside became aware of this catch-and-release affair in the county.

The ruffians' reputation was indeed quite good recently, and no one thought that the public security officers released the prisoners incorrectly. Those they have helped were happy about this, while those who had no connection with it would just idly discuss.

Recently, as he's preparing to leave for Shanghai, Lin Shiheng, worried that Mother Lin would be left unattended in the village and also wanting to appear friendly to the neighbors, went to the mountain and caught a few rabbits and gave them to the neighbors. When he met someone in the village who couldn't carry their water, he would also help.

Although everyone knew that he helped people because he was hoping the villagers would help look after his mother after he leaves, being helped would still leave them with some good impression of Lin Shiheng.

Before, they really didn't notice that this young man grew up to be quite energetic and that he looked pretty good when he smiles. Moreover, the most important thing is that he was quite capable. The land on his side was rather strange. Don't know if the mountain was eaten clean in the year of the disaster or because it was too close to the water source, but everyone who went up there to try to hunt down prey came back down without success; except Lin Shiheng, who once went up and brought back three rabbits, all of them mature.

Moreover, he went several times afterward and came back with a good harvest every time. Such capability… Even if he couldn't earn money in Shanghai and had to come back to live, he could still live quite well just by hunting.

People will subconsciously pay attention to those who are capable, even if they had intentions in their hearts.

With their change of heart and Lin Shiheng's intention to be closer, they were soon able to genially greet each other when they meet when he walks through the village.

This time around, after hearing about the arrest in the city, people gathered to gossip.

It was also a coincidence that while they were talking here, Lin Shiheng happened to be coming down from the mountain carrying two fat rabbits in his left hand and a beautiful, colorful pheasant in his right.

Seeing them, the handsome looking young man blinked and smiled broadly, greeting the middle-aged woman who was talking among them. "Aunt Wu, I just hunted a pheasant and the long feathers on this pheasant are yours. Your Xiao Yuan and I have agreed that if I hunt a pheasant, the long feathers will be given to him to play with."

The middle-aged woman who was just called Aunt Wu was rather flattered and watched as Lin Shiheng came and handed her some beautiful long pheasant feathers. "Xiao Yuan, that child, he was just joking around, yet you really went to the mountains to hunt one?"

"Of course not. Aren't I just hunting anything I run across? Last time grandmother gave me two chickens, didn't she? I heard that wild animals are more nourishing. Having hunted this one today, I plan to send it to her later."

Speaking of Old Lady Lin, the several people there looked a bit unnatural. Recently, there were quite a few people in the village who had a friendly relationship with Lin Shiheng. After all, if a good person suddenly becomes bad, they would be condemned by thousands. But if a guy who has been stubborn since childhood suddenly becomes better, such a big surprise was considered the return of a prodigal son.

What's more, those that are filial are a favorite no matter who you ask.

They were increasingly convinced that Lin Shiheng had a sincere heart. While he was a bit of a jerk before but as soon as his mother got involved, he would return to his roots. Nowadays, although it wasn't as bad as those years of gnawing tree bark, it still wasn't so great that there is meat every day; even so, Lin Shiheng was willing to share the meat he hunted from the mountains with his neighbors, just so they could take care of his mother more when he is away.

What an amazingly wonderful child.

Everyone was praising, yet it was precisely, only, Old Lady Lin who didn't.

Even if she just didn't try to boast, that's fine. However, she would come and belittle him every time she could.

From the time Lin Shiheng refused to call her grandmother as a child, all the way until he tricked her of her three chickens.

Bah!

Don't think they don't know, Granny Wan had told them. That time it was clearly the old woman herself who happily took the initiative to bring the person into her home to eat chicken. She even felt repulsed by her talking to Lin Shiheng and having delayed the two of them.

After Lin Shiheng took the two chickens, he met a person on his way back and said that his own grandmother had given him the chicken to eat. That small-expression really reminded people of his stubborn appearance when he was so hungry without even having a mouthful to eat, yet Old Lady Lin just kicked him out.

He was so miserable as a child, yet grew up to so easily believe that Old Lady Lin was truly good to him just by those two chickens.

On his side, he was very happy, but little did he know that the Old Lady Lin keeps telling everyone that Lin Shiheng forced her to give him the chickens.

If he really wanted to do that, Lin Shiheng would have done it a long time ago. He wouldn't have waited until now to just get only two chickens.

Who doesn't know how stingy she was, if she was really forced, she would tun to the Lin family, sat down, and wailed – blocking their front door. Before giving the chicken, she was probably scheming something bad in her heart.

It was only Lin Shiheng who believed that his grandmother cared about him and so she gave him the chickens. This kid, how did we not see how gullible he was before?

The group of women each had different thoughts. Still, it was Aunt Wu who felt that she had received something and couldn't just stand by, watching Lin Shiheng be deceived by that Old Lady Lin and opened her mouth to advise him. "Shiheng, your grandmother has raised a large flock of chickens and wouldn't mind whether she gets yours. It's better not to send it over, why not keep it for your mother to supplement her body?"

"Those that grandmother has raised belongs to her, what I give is a token of my sincerity. My mother is not in a hurry, I'll be going back to the mountains tomorrow. I'll hunt another one. Aunt Wu, you guys go ahead and talk, I'll go home first. I have to cook this chicken and then send it to my grandmother."

"Um, um, um… Wait!"

Seeing that Lin Shiheng was not listening to the advice, having finished his greeting, and was about to continue walking, Aunt Wu directly stopped the person with worry. When he stopped again, as the young man in front of her looked at her strangely, waiting for her to speak, the words got stuck in her throat and wouldn't come out.

Although they all knew that Old Lady Lin wouldn't have been so kind, in the end, she was also his real grandmother, and to speak ill of his grandmother behind her back to her own grandson, it was something that only someone with no sense of propriety could do, such as Old Lady Lin.

She choked for a few seconds and finally changed the topic, "That… Did you hear about the arrests in the county?"

"Arrests? What arrests?"

Lin Shiheng's facial expression immediately tensed up. "I have been in the mountains this whole time, what happened in the county?"

"It's nothing really, just that the boys you played with were reported, and when the public security comrades went to arrest them, they discovered it was a mistake and so released them again."

"So it was like that…"

Lin Shiheng's face relaxed again, carrying the wild games in his hand and smiled. "Last time I went to the city, there was a crackdown on crime – thefts and robbery. In the past, when caught, they would beat you up to teach you a lesson. Now, people that have been caught would be directly put in jail. If it's too serious, they may even be executed. But my brothers are fine since they haven't done those kinds of things."

"Aye, we also know that. Otherwise, the public security comrades would not release them either. I'm just telling you so that you won't be anxious when you hear other people muddly speaking about it."

"Aye, I know. Then if there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

After waiting for Lin Shiheng to walk away, the group of people again gathered around to gossip.

At first, they spoke about how cruel and unpopular Old Lady Lin was, then they mention how Lin Shiheng, that young man, was really not bad. Before he looked so easy to provoke, presumably because he was an orphan with a widowed mother. The mother usually doesn't stand up for herself, if he didn't become a bit more ruthless, they would have been bullied to death.

At some point, they started talking about the arrests again.

Some people felt that being executed for stealing and robbing was too much, while others felt it was appropriate. Otherwise, people's hard-earned money will just be stolen and taken away.

They spoke intensely but it was just a moment of interest; after a while, they all scattered to work again.

But these words have a different meaning in the ears of those with intent.

And this was Widow Zhang.

After she recovered from her injuries, she began to torment her daughter-in-law and her young granddaughter again, but not her son, yet still treated him as if his she can't look at him without feeling upset

Widow Zhang was different from the other widows who consider their only child as more important than life itself. Her husband died to save his son, a cripple who can't even take care of the fields.

Often, she would think, if only the son had died instead of the husband, then she could just give birth to another. However with her husband dead, with this crippled son around, it was difficult to even find someone else.

She was not stupid either, knowing that she only has such a son to rely on. Therefore even if she wasn't happy, she didn't display her anger on her face. At most, she would only be a little cold. When her son finally married, she took all her anger out on this daughter-in-law.

Previously, Widow Zhang fought and sprained her waist so she was in bed for a good two days. She didn't expect that just as she went out, she actually heard this.

You can be shot for stealing money?!

If Lin Shiheng didn't steal all that money, where could he have gotten it from?

This is more blackmail material.

Widow Zhang then aggressively and confidently went to the Lins.

Lin Shiheng just happened to be standing at the door, as if he was waiting for her.

Waiting until Widow Zhang has finished saying her threats, although wearing shabby clothes, the increasingly handsome young man looked around, as if to see whether anyone was paying attention to them.

Widow Zhang thought he was feeling guilty and looked even smugger. "No need to look anymore, there's no one paying attention to us here. And you don't have to worry. I don't want a lot, only half. As long as you give me half, only you, me, and the heavens will know about this matter. There won't be a third person."

"There really isn't anyone?"

Lin Shiheng nodded and walked up to Widow Zhang, gazing at her calmly for a moment. As her stiff face was gradually relaxing, Lin Shiheng slowly smiled.

"If there's no one… Then I'm relieved."

Relieved? Relieved about what?

Before Widow Zhang could react, the person in front stretched out his hand, a great force struck her, and her whole person was directly thrown out.

Accompanied by the pain, Widow Zhang covered her leg and reflexively cried out.

"Lin Shiheng, aren't you afraid I'll report you? Then you'll get executed!"

The young man standing by the door took a step back into the yard and slammed the door shut.

Widow Zhang: "…"

She didn't come back to her senses for quite some time and kept the same posture on the ground all the while. Until an old man carrying a box on his back passed by, who asked kindly, "Did you fall? Need me to help you up?"

Only then did Widow Zhang react, "It's Lin…"

The Lin family front door abruptly opened. The young man, whose hands were holding some vegetable leaves, appearing as if he was just picking vegetables, came out with a face full of doubt. Seeing this scene, wearing a face of obvious surprise, he hurriedly ran to Widow Zhang to help the person up. "How did you fall in front of my door? Hurry and get up. Aiyo… you're really heavy, it really takes some effort to help you up."

Widow Zhang looked at the innocent and surprised face in front of her, her lips trembling with anger.

This person had just picked her up with one hand and threw her far away, now he's pretending he wasn't strong enough to help her?

Her brain, which originally just thought about cheating him some money, was now filled with anger.

She had only one notion left.

Report Lin Shiheng and have him executed!

Immediately!

"Great! Lin Shiheng, you just wait!"

The surprise on Lin Shiheng's face grew more evident as he watched Widow Zhang shake off his hand and limp away. Looking at her back and then down at his hand, then finally turned his head to look at the old man, who was passing by, again.

"What was wrong? Did I hurt her when I was helping her up?"

The old man also knew a little about Widow Zhang's disdain for her daughter-in-law. Thinking about the fact that Lin Shiheng was also her daughter-in-law's nephew, he already had a notion in mind.

He freed up one hand to stroke his long beard. He spoke in an exceptionally kind tone to the ex-prodigal son before him. "Don't worry about her, that woman is being small-minded and is just irritated with you."

"Okay, hurry home and get back to work. I'm leaving too, my family is waiting for me to eat lunch together."

"En, you walk slowly. This box looks quite heavy, do you want me to help you carry it?"

The old man smiled and shook his hand. "No, no. Something that I carry every day, how would I still need you to help me?"

He continued walking, thinking at the same time, it seems Lin Shiheng, this boy, has really changed.

How polite.

Lin Shiheng, who was just praised for his courtesy, was later arrested by the police that afternoon.

Widow Zhang, appearing exuberant, stood behind the three public security officers and watched as they did indeed found a large stack of bills in the Lin home.

"Do you see now? I've said it already, he must have either stolen this money or have robbed it. This boy was a gangster since he was young. Either way, he definitely didn't earn it properly. Public Security Comrade, you guys hurry up, arrest him, and shoot him!"

Lin Shiheng also didn't look at her and spoke to the three officers, "I earned this money from selling watermelon juice and by helping sell cakes in the city. The source is legitimate. If you don't believe me, you can ask the bakery owner in town."

The public security officers looked at each other. As there was a situation in the city where a large group of colleagues was blocked by villagers from seizing a framed group earlier in the morning, they held an emergency meeting: when arresting, the situation must be verified before they could be taken away, so as not to cause another false arrest. Embarrassing yourself was a small matter, however, mistaking a good person for a bad one and taking them away was a matter that can ruin someone's life.

Moreover, they also had a very good impression of this young man who was fully cooperating with the investigation.

"Give us the cake shop address, we will have a colleague verify it. We will also have to bother you today to let us stay here for the night."

"Okay, no problem. I will definitely cooperate with you."

Widow Zhang looked at this scene where it seemed as if everyone in front of her were one happy family and was somewhat stunned. "Wait a minute, aren't you guys taking him to the police station?"

One of the policemen patiently explained, "After all, we haven't finished investigating yet. We can't just take people to the station. The city is also too far away. We will let a comrade drive a police car to the city to verify. If what you reported was true, the arrest will then be implemented."

"What do you still need to verify? Just think about it and you'll know! Such a large sum of money, how could he have earned it? And even earned it from selling watermelon juice? How much does a watermelon even cost?"

"This kid has never been a good thing since he was a child; if you don't arrest him tonight, he's going to run away."

Lin Shiheng helplessly sighed, "Aunt, I know you don't like me, but do you really need to treat me like this? Just because you couldn't make this money, it doesn't mean that I can't."

On hearing this, one of the officers raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is your relationship?"

"She's my aunt's mother-in-law. She usually looks down on my aunt, so similarly, she also doesn't like me. But I thought it was all a family matter, I didn't think she would look down on me to the point of calling for you guys."

Lin Shiheng's face looked very bitter and appeared to be absolutely puzzled by Widow Zhang's behavior.

Another one with private animosity?

The three public security officers exchanged glances. The group in the county that morning, it was specifically because the next county's gangsters had a personal vendetta against them that it caused everyone to make a wasted trip.

If it's still the same this time, then their county public security bureau would definitely be a laughing stock.

The officers had been called out twice today; if both were false news, did they still have any prestige?

At the thought of this, one of the public security officers sternly said, "Madam, we will send someone to the city to verify the information. If the information is verified to be correct, we will arrest the person. However, if the verification fails and it is found that you fabricated the report due to personal grudges, you will be guilty of false accusation. The sentence will be a minimum of three years in jail."

Widow Zhang, who was still urging the police to directly take the person away, became stunned. "Why? Why would I be sentenced if I only reported it? I didn't even steal anything."

Seeing her expression, the public security officer's heart was even more certain that she was randomly fabricating. His eyebrows wrinkled deeply, "Reporting false information that leads to wasting a dispatch of the department is illegal. Of course, there will be a sentence."

Widow Zhang was originally very sure that Lin Shiheng's money wasn't obtained legally, but she still panicked when she heard about the sentencing. When she finally looked up again and clearly saw the smile in Lin Shiheng's eyes, her heart was even more uncertain.

It couldn't be that he really did earn that money, right?

She didn't want to believe it but… What if it was true?

Then won't she, the reporter, be sentenced?

Widow Zhang's brain became a jumbled mess, leaving only one notion.

She must make sure that Lin Shiheng's crime would definitely be verified.

A streak of light flashed through her mind and she suddenly clapped her hands. "Public Security Comrades, there's more! Lin Shiheng also stole chickens! Stealing chickens is also stealing. This one is absolutely true. I dare to guarantee it. If you don't believe me, you can go to the chicken owner's house and ask."

If it's stealing chickens…

Although small, it was indeed stealing.

In the end, the three public security officers still took Lin Shiheng and Widow Zhang to the old Lin house. Seeing the officers in uniform bringing Lin Shiheng, the surrounding villager, regardless of whether it was due to curiosity or worriedness, also followed along.

After knocking on the door of the old Lin family, Old Lady Lin was shocked as soon as she opened the door and saw the situation. After hearing what Widow Zhang said, she was stunned again.

"Old Lady Lin, theft is actually punishable by imprisonment."

No one knew better than Widow Zhang about how much Old Lady Lin disliked this grandson, she quickly said, "Who knows, it might also be an execution. You have to tell the truth."

Lin Shiheng, who had been silent for a long time, with reddish eyes, looked at his grandmother in front of him, and whispered, "Grandma, you gave me those three chickens. Can you help me testify?"

When had Old Lady Lin ever seen Lin Shiheng, the grandson, go soft on her?

Her expression immediately brightened.

Tch, so what if he was so arrogant before, didn't he still fall into her hands now?

She didn't notice the surprised look in the eyes of the police when they heard Lin Shiheng calling her grandma. She straightened her posture, patted her chest, and announced, "He stole those three chickens, I did not give them willingly!"

"You have to hurry and take him away!"

The police didn't listen to her but turned around and asked Lin Shiheng, "She is your grandmother?"

"Yes, biological."

The young man who had looked so helpless when he was reported by Widow Zhang was now filled with hidden sorrow, even his eyes were red.

He lowered his head and held out his hands. "Public Security Comrade, when she gave me the chickens before, no one saw it. No one can help me to testify, please take me away."

Old Lady Lin's expression became even more arrogant. "Yes! Take him away and shoot him!"

She has been eyeing the Lins' big house and field for a long time. When Lin Shiheng dies, won't his mother then be at her mercy?

The three officers looked at the handsome young man with an increasingly sad expression, then looked at Old Lady Lin, who seemed like she was about to laugh aloud. They hesitated and didn't move.

Old Lady Lin saw this and became anxious. "What are you still doing? He already said he didn't have witnesses. Isn't that an admission? Hurry up and take the person away."

The onlookers were already upset, and she still added fuel to the fire. Aunt Wu, who had gotten a few pheasant feathers from Lin Shiheng before, was already so angry that she stepped out.

"Have you no shame saying these words?! You clearly gave him those chickens. At that time, when you took him to your house to drink chicken soup, it was as if it just wouldn't do if he didn't go. And we even thought you had changed for the better, turns out you were waiting for this!"

"Let me tell you, you will be struck by lightning if you do unjust things such as framing people."

Old Lady Lin, feeling attacked by her words, became angry herself and held her waist out and scolded, "I did give him chicken soup but he forced me to give it to him, and the two chickens were snatched by him … Aiyo my chickens ah… I worked so hard to raise them, but they ended up just being snatched away."

"Bah, who doesn't know that you are stingy, what you don't want to give couldn't have been given out. Shiheng was also thrown out like garbage by you at an early age. It was already so difficult for him to grow up and have success, yet you're still planning to plot against him. What a great child ah… Just before, he hunted a pheasant and wanted to give it to you, saying that his grandma treated him well, so he also wanted to treat his grandma well. Do you have a conscience? You could even falsely accuse your own grandson. I hope that after you die, they'll take you to hell to peel off your skin and pull out your tongue!"

"You thing! I'll kill you! He would still say he's treating me well because of those three chickens?! That he snatched from me?!"

Seeing the two women cursing at each other, the three public security officers quickly took control of the situation. "Don't curse! First, don't curse, then speak clearly, we will investigate it one by one."

"I will testify!"

Granny Wan came out with her crutches, a pair of eyes scowling at Old Lady Lin, "I will testify, those chickens were given to him by her."

"At that time, I saw very clearly, this old woman dragged another's child to her own home as if he just had to go. Shiheng also met me on the way back with the chicken she gave, saying the chickens were from his grandmother."

"Right! I will also testify."

"Me too!"

"Shiheng is really a good child, moreover, he is great at hunting. He can hunt many rabbits and pheasants from the mountain every day. Today, he also shot down two rabbits and a pheasant. If he wanted to eat chicken, he could have hunted himself. Why would he have to rob her?"

"Precisely! The kid is so generous. After hunting rabbits, he would also share them with us, the neighbors. How could he steal chickens?"

A group of people noisily testified one after another. Old Lady Lin's eyes darkened with anger. But, before she got the chance to scold back while holding her waist, the three officers at the side with blackened faces had already announced that they would continue their investigation.

"The theft of chickens has been considered investigated clearly. You two will be arrested on suspicion of false accusations. Please cooperate with the investigation."

The raging Old Lady Lin suddenly froze. "What do you mean I'm under arrest?"

Aren't you catching Lin Shiheng?

Why did it change to arresting her?
