Chapter 210 I'm Going to Hit You

Military family compound, Beijing Military Region compound, it looks like a rather solemn place.

At this moment, it was getting dark, and people were walking home in twos and threes after get off work, but they were stopped in their tracks by a series of exclamations and unconsciously went to look for the sound.

"What's going on? Why are so many people gathered here? What happened?" Pushing a bicycle with a lunchbox hanging on the handlebars, he was on his way home from get off work but hadn't arrived yet.

"Who is this girl? How did she get involved with this scoundrel? This mother and daughter are no pushovers." This was a timid person who loved to join in the fun.

...

Bonnie had just knocked out the smelly, drunk young man and was thinking of taking the child home quickly, as it was rather cold.

"Gu Bei, what the hell are you doing? Get him! Are we still brothers?" The man lying on the ground cursed and shouted at Gu Bei. They were birds of a feather, two people who shared the same stench.

Bonnie couldn't be bothered with someone like Gu Bei, afraid of getting her hands dirty.

Bonnie, who had already reached the edge of the human wall, felt someone grab her from behind and instinctively dodged to the side. Turning around, she saw Gu Bei. "You're really asking for trouble," she thought.

Bonnie was furious. She was in a hurry to get home; would these people ever stop?

"You asked for this. Blocking the road at night, you're obviously not a good person, so it's only right that I beat you up." As soon as she finished speaking, Bonnie's foot was already outstretched. Gu Bei, who had just regained his footing, flew out like a kite and landed with a thud next to the young man who hadn't gotten up yet.

"Xuanyu, take your things and go home with your younger siblings. It's too cold outside."

Bonnie felt that this matter wouldn't be resolved anytime soon, and they couldn't even finish it if they wanted to.

"Auntie, be careful." Gu Xuanyu knew what was important and led his younger siblings home, not wanting to hold his aunt back.

"Ouch, that hurts so much! Did I break my leg?"

Gu Bei was crying, and the alcohol had worn off; he really had woken up from the pain.

"In the Beijing Military Region compound, under the clear blue sky, you bunch of scoundrels actually dare to rob people on the road. You've got some nerve!" Bonnie's words were purely meant to disgust them.

"You shameless bastard, you hit my son and then turned around and blamed me. I'll beat you to death."

Seeing that her beloved youngest son hadn't gotten the better of her and was lying there for a long time without getting up, the hen-like woman got anxious and stuck out her five-pronged scratcher at Bonnie.

If she scratches you, you could be disfigured at best, or even blinded at worst. That hen has a really black heart!

Bonnie's temper flared up too. On such a freezing day, who wouldn't want to stay inside a warm house? Now, she was wasting her time with a bunch of idiots. Anyone would be angry.

Bonnie quickly reached out, grabbed the hen's two claws by the throat, and pried them back hard.

"Ah! My hand, my hand is broken!" The hen cried out in a loud voice, which was so frightening that the onlookers could not stand idly by.

"Young lady, let go quickly! She's so old, isn't this a bad thing to do?" An older woman who was watching the commotion recognized the hen's voice and quickly advised her.

"This is really interesting. You didn't see what was happening when these people were hitting and yelling at me. No, you were just watching a free show. Is this your kind of class, your sense of superiority? Who gave you the misconception that I'm easy to bully?"

Bonnie twisted it again with force, and the hen cried out in pain.

"Let go of my mother! Who gave you the right to act so recklessly in court?"

The middle-aged man in the green military uniform looked at Bonnie with a serious expression. The four pockets on his body indicated that he was an officer.

"Really? Then who gave your mother and brother the guts to rob people in the military compound?" Bonnie stared at his face, not backing down at all.

"Guards, guards, take her down!" The male officer, whether humiliated by Bonnie or simply too used to his position, couldn't tolerate any dissent. He shouted for his guards, eager to execute Bonnie on the spot.

"Staff Officer Guo has quite the airs of an official. He didn't ask any questions and just had his guards arrest the person. I've learned my lesson."

As soon as Gu Ze entered the courtyard, he saw a group of people gathered around. He assumed it was another argument between some of the women in the family and didn't pay any attention, continuing to walk home.

If it weren't for Bonnie's words, he wouldn't have known that it was Bonnie who was surrounded. He strode over, pushed through the crowd, and entered the encirclement.

"Gu Ze, this has nothing to do with you. She was causing trouble in the compound, and it wasn't wrong for me to call the guards." Staff Officer Guo had no idea what Gu Ze had to do with this, so he meddled.

"Who said it has nothing to do with me? Bonnie, let go of her. You're such a grown-up, grabbing everything. Go home and have your sister-in-law wipe it with disinfectant." Gu Ze's veiled words made Staff Officer Guo's face darken, but unfortunately, it was dark and he couldn't see it.

"I know, big brother, I'm scared too. I'm just afraid of getting rabies, so I had no choice but to do it!" Bonnie shoved Guo a little harder, her hen-like voice almost knocking him over.

"You're supposed to be a staff officer? How did you get that position? You're convicting everyone right away. You're more powerful than a judge. If your mom and brother hadn't been blocking my way home, I would have paid them any attention. One's a foul-mouthed old woman, and the other's a drunken slurr. I was afraid of getting my hands dirty."

Bonnie shook her hand, as if trying to shake off something dirty.

"Mom, what have you done again?" Staff Officer Guo didn't recognize Bao Ni and didn't know she was Gu Ze's relative. He and Gu Ze had different positions and occasionally clashed at work, but he knew that he was no match for Gu Ze; it was his father who had the face.

The hen, questioned by her son, rolled her eyes around, unsure how to answer.

"Brother, this woman hurt me, she has to pay me back, not too much, five hundred yuan will do."

The young man who had been thrown to the ground finally got up. He was so weak; it took him so long to get up.

"Shut up! Do I look like I'm worth five hundred yuan?" Staff Officer Guo now understood seven or eight parts of the truth; his mother had kicked a hornet's nest this time.

"You have a little more than five hundred."

The idiot realized his brother was angry, muttered something under his breath, and stepped back.

"Gu Ze, I'm sorry, I didn't understand clearly, I apologize." Staff Officer Guo was flexible and adaptable.

"Why are you apologizing to me? It's not like I've been wronged again." Gu Ze smiled, showing no sign of anger.

"I'm sorry!" Staff Officer Guo turned to Bao Ni, his apology sounding reluctant.

"I won't say it's okay, and I won't forgive you. From now on, if you see me, just walk around me. I'm an eyesore." Bonnie wouldn't say it's okay; that would be too hypocritical.

"Move aside. If you want to try too, I don't mind helping you stretch your muscles." Bonnie looked at Xu Fang in front of her without giving her a second glance.

"you……"

Bonnie couldn't be bothered with her; she was just a piece of trash.

Bonnie walked quickly; she was in a hurry to get home and use the restroom. If these people lingered for a while, she risked embarrassing herself.

Gu Ze chuckled and told everyone to disperse. "It's so late, why aren't you home cooking?"

"Oh no, I was so busy watching the show that I haven't even started cooking yet. Old Zhang is going to start yelling again."

"Hurry home, it's freezing! Don't catch a cold!"

...

Gu Ze and Staff Officer Guo exchanged a glance; what they were thinking was anyone's guess.

Gu Ze sometimes envied Gu Ye and Bao Ni. Although taking action was not the best solution, it was really satisfying!
