Shen Wencai was not only beaten by his own father, but also warned by the factory director. His dream of marrying the factory director's daughter was shattered, and he felt very resentful.

He found it even more unbearable that people around him would point and whisper behind his back when they saw him.

Although he is a very thick-skinned person, sometimes he is also inappropriately proud and can't stand others pointing fingers at him.

This made him extremely depressed, and his dissatisfaction led him to sneak over to the Zhou family's house in the middle of the night, wanting to teach them a lesson.

"Tsk."

Chen Suwen, who was sound asleep in the middle of the night, clicked her tongue in annoyance and slowly got up.

"You keep sleeping, I'll take care of it." Zhou Qingyun quickly reassured her, seeing her displeased expression.

If his wife gets really angry with her fiery temper, none of the neighbors on Guangming Road will be able to sleep.

There are children at home, and if they are woken up, they will definitely make a lot of noise and it will also affect the adults' rest.

Chen Suwen glared at him and said, "That bastard, break his legs."

He sneaked into her house, he definitely wasn't up to anything, we have to teach him a lesson.

"I see."

Zhou Qingyun told her to stay in bed, and Chen Suwen didn't leave the warm bed either, letting him go deal with the thieves outside.

When Zhou Qingyun came out, he didn't disturb anyone, and he could see the situation outside clearly even without turning on the lights.

Even in the dark, his eyesight allowed him to clearly see the other person's movements. A figure was about to pour kerosene onto their woodpile and then light it with a match.

His woodpile was piled up in the corridor outside the kitchen. If it caught fire, it would inevitably burn down the kitchen as well. If the fire got out of control, it might even burn down other rooms.

Zhou Qingyun frowned slightly; this guy really harbored a lot of resentment towards their family.

They burned down his woodpile in the middle of the night. If they were sound asleep, they might have perished in the fire.

Under such circumstances, he certainly didn't intend to show this guy any mercy.

Zhou Qingyun quietly walked behind the figure and swiftly knocked the person unconscious.

Without saying anything more, and without any intention of exposing the other party, they simply knocked the person unconscious and dragged them away.

His 1.1-1.2 meter high fence couldn't stop him at all; he could easily climb over it while dragging an adult along.

Zhou Qingyun dragged the person to a place about two blocks away from Guangming Road before throwing the unconscious person on the ground.

He knew who the other person was as soon as he knocked him unconscious—it was Shen Wencai, the arrogant man who had coveted their family's money.

I never expected him to be so ruthless. He sneaked into their house in the middle of the night and tried to burn it down. It's truly astonishing.

Without any further movement, Zhou Qingyun stepped directly on Shen Wencai's leg, breaking it.

As a dual-elemental ability user of metal and lightning, his kick could definitely break Shen Wencai's leg, and even if he was sent to the hospital for treatment, he would be left with a limp.

Zhou Qingyun also used his lightning-based superpower to electrocute the person, which wouldn't kill them but wouldn't make them feel good either.

After doing all this, Zhou Qingyun slowly squatted down, grabbed Shen Wencai's hair and pulled his head up, then tapped his head with his other hand.

The metal-based superpower quickly flashed through his mind, leaving him with occasional headaches.

Only then did he give Shen Wencai a bottle of medicine that would cause temporary amnesia, so that he would forget what happened tonight and not remember how he ended up in such a miserable state.

After doing all this, Zhou Qingyun threw the person on the ground like a dead dog and went home.

Although winters in Guangdong Province can be a bit cold, Guangzhou at the end of November won't freeze you to death; you'll just catch a cold.

Actually, he wouldn't care even if Shen Wencai froze to death outside, but since winter in Guangzhou isn't cold enough to freeze people to death.

After punishing the man, Zhou Qingyun returned to his home and frowned as he looked at the pile of firewood that had been splattered with kerosene.

Kerosene is indeed flammable, and when mixed with firewood, it becomes even more flammable; a single spark can ignite them rapidly.

Fortunately, Shen Wencai didn't take out much kerosene, and not much firewood got wet.

Zhou Qingyun placed the firewood, which was stained with kerosene, next to the tap, rinsed it with boiling water, and then placed it on the other side to dry in the sun before burning it.

The other firewood is fine, so we don't need to worry about it.

"You're back?"

Chen Suwen, a light sleeper, felt a slightly cool body slip into the bed. She turned around, snuggled into his arms, and asked a question.

"Which bastard came to cause us trouble?"

She was already quite upset after being transported to the 1970s and becoming a grandmother, but then someone tried to make things worse for her, which made her even more unhappy.

“It’s Shen Wencai.” Zhou Qingyun told her what Shen Wencai was about to do, and then told her about his relationship with Shen Wencai.

Chen Suwen frowned. "That damn bastard actually wanted to kill us? He's got some nerve."

Don't say that Shen Wencai only wanted to burn her family's firewood and didn't intend to kill anyone.

Burning her family's firewood in the middle of the night—if her whole family were sound asleep, wouldn't they have been burned to a crisp?

That guy has a bad heart.

"Breaking his leg is too lenient on him!" Chen Suwen said indignantly, and bit Zhou Qingyun.

Zhou Qingyun reached out to comfort her, "Alright, don't be angry. He'll definitely suffer a fate worse than death in the future."

Shen Wencai's leg is broken, and he will suffer from sequelae, including occasional headaches. He will definitely not be able to continue his work.
