"I used to think he was a pretty good young man."

Aunt Yu Cui gently shook her head. "Seeing what he's done after getting married, he's like a child who hasn't grown up and can't take on any responsibility."

Now he shows no remorse and dares to continue causing trouble. I really don't know when he'll ever grow up.

Whether he's sensible or not is none of my business.

Lin Jingyu gave a cold laugh, "No one is his parents who will pamper him, make him happy, or wait on him around."

"If he dares to cause me trouble, he can't blame me for dealing with him."

Aunt Yu Cui couldn't help but sigh: "I hope Captain Zhang can teach him well, otherwise his son will really be ruined."

...

The mother and daughter sat for a while and then went back.

My family has been sick these past few days, leaving a lot of work to do.

That day.

Lin Jingyu then told everyone the news.

The three elderly people looked very calm.

After all, they've lived to this age; they've seen all sorts of monsters and demons in the world.

In their eyes, Zhang Zhiming's instigation of trouble was like a clown performance.

It's fine if the old men don't take it seriously, but the young people are furious.

Under Su Jingtian's leadership.

A dozen or so men, exuding a murderous aura, headed towards Captain Zhang's house.

Lin Jingyu and Yang Shujue exchanged a glance.

He smiled knowingly.

Without saying a word.

The two immediately followed behind them, ready to become bystanders.

The movement of a group of people immediately attracted the attention of many villagers.

Everyone quickly realized that there was going to be a good show.

One by one they followed closely behind.

"Zhang Zhiming, get out here."

Su Jingtian coldly shouted at the Zhang family, "If you don't give us an explanation today, don't blame me for sending you to the police station to reason with them."

Upon hearing this voice, Zhang Zhiming, who was being scolded, immediately changed his expression.

Afraid that he would notice his father's darkening expression, he quickly said, "Dad, Su Jingtian is too arrogant..."

"Pah~"

He slapped away his provocative words.

Captain Zhang's face darkened further, and he shouted, "You beast, deal with me later."

Zhang Zhiming, who had been slapped, dared not resent his father.

But in his heart, he felt even more hatred for Su Jingtian and the other educated youth.

Captain Zhang walked out of the main hall.

He immediately saw Su Jingtian and about ten others standing in his courtyard.

His heart sank, but he had to force a smile. "Su Zhiqing, I wonder why you've come looking for this kid, Zhiming."

"Captain Zhang, you really don't know?"

Su Jingtian couldn't help but sneer, "It seems that Captain Zhang is planning to treat us like fools, or perhaps he thinks he's deaf and mute and is deliberately playing dumb in front of us to make a fool of us?"

“Su Zhiqing was joking; I absolutely did not mean that.”

Captain Zhang quickly waved his hand, "We just got back from the hospital two days ago, and we don't know much about what's going on in the village. Please don't take offense."

"It seems that Captain Zhang has finally gotten rid of the pretense of ignorance."

Su Zhiqing glanced at him indifferently, then her gaze fell on Zhang Zhiming, who came out from inside.

He curled his lips into a cold smile, "Zhang Zhiming, now that everyone is here, you tell us properly how Old Master Sun and I killed someone."

If you don't explain this clearly, I'll make sure you spend the rest of your life in jail, and you'll never be able to leave prison again.

Not only was Zhang Zhiming shocked by these words, but the rest of the Zhang family were also startled.

They had no doubt about the other party's strength and believed that the other party would definitely keep their word.

"I... what did I say?"

Zhang Zhiming turned pale with fright and immediately denied it, saying, "Don't make false accusations. I didn't say anything."

"Brother Zhiming, why are you refusing to admit it?"

A young man of seventeen or eighteen years old stepped forward and exposed his past, saying, "You personally came to my house and told me that the old man from the Sun family deliberately withheld the antidote from everyone, causing the deaths of my grandparents."

“Zhiming, you said such things at my house.”

A man in his twenties stepped forward and continued to expose his true colors, saying, "You also said that my daughter was poisoned and died because she wasn't given timely treatment. We should unite and demand compensation from them."

“Zhiming, you said the same thing to your uncle.”

“Hey Zhiming, you’re telling me this with your hand on your heart: as long as we cause trouble for the Sun and Zhang families, they’ll definitely pay us money to save face.”

...

As one by one they stepped forward and spoke out about their actions.

Zhang Zhiming was completely stunned.

I can't believe I've been so thoroughly betrayed by the villagers.

“You, you guys…”

Pointing at the group of people in front of him, Zhang Zhiming was already in a state of utter confusion, feeling both angry and resentful, unsure of what to do.

"Zhang Zhiming, what else do you have to say?"

Su Jingtian glared at him coldly, but his gaze swept over Captain Zhang, who was about to vomit blood from anger: "I wonder what Captain Zhang has to say now?"

That's a slap in the face.

Captain Zhang felt a burning pain on his face.

Before he could say anything, Su Jingtian continued, "Captain Zhang, do you remember what I said last time?"

"Su Zhiqing..."

Recalling Su Jingtian's warning again, Captain Zhang was startled and quickly explained, "This time it was my fault, I promise there will never be a next time."

"No next time?"

Su Jingtian sneered, "You don't know what kind of person your son is? They say it's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature. Since he dares to disobey you time and time again, it's obvious you can't control him."
