Everyone's eyes immediately turned to Xie Zhuo. Xie Zhuo also glanced back, took a step to the side, and made way for Granny Tian, ​​who was standing on tiptoe trying to watch the commotion.

Everyone: "..."

Granny Tian, ​​caught off guard by the pointing finger: "..."

"You're talking nonsense!" Granny Tian immediately spat at Wang Chao. "When did I hit you? Do you think my old arms and legs could beat you?"

Wang Chao was furious, but two of his teeth had been knocked out, and his mouth was in so much pain that he couldn't open it or speak.

I just pointed at Xie Zhuo with all my might, but he dodged it.

That cursed lone star, yesterday's events must be related to him!

Those people must have been instructed by Xie Laosan to beat him up!

Wang Chaoyue felt increasingly resentful, wishing he could jump up and bite Xie Zhuo right away, but his arm was broken and his leg was in so much pain that he couldn't move it, so he guessed it was broken too.

Just as Granny Tian was about to say something more, Wang Chao's mother, Chen Jinxiang, came running over, crying and wailing, with Zhang Zi, heavily pregnant, trailing behind.

Upon seeing Wang Chao's appearance, the two cried and rushed towards him.

Wang Chao was already in pain all over, and when the two of them pounced on him, he actually coughed up a little blood.

"Oh my god! Murder!" Chen Jinxiang was stunned at first, then her wailing grew louder, "What happened to my son? Which heartless bastard beat my son like this?"

Zhang Zi's eyes were also red. She had been faking her tears, but now that she saw Wang Chao vomiting blood, she was visibly panicked.

Everyone's gaze slowly turned to Granny Tian.

"Why are you all looking at me like that?" Granny Tian was also startled by Wang Chao's act of spitting blood.

Then she saw everyone looking at her, and her expression instantly changed. "How could an old woman like me possibly beat him? I think, maybe he is..."

Her eyes darted toward Xie Zhuo, and she opened her mouth to push him away.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Bin, who was in the crowd, spoke first, saying, "He was beaten up by city people."

"What did you say?" Chen Jinxiang's wailing stopped abruptly.

“I guess he messed with someone he shouldn’t have,” Zhao Bin said. “When I drove back this morning, I saw some thugs from the city dump him here.”

"Then, what about those people?" Chen Jinxiang looked like she was ready to fight anyone who told her.

“I’m leaving,” Zhao Bin said.

"You saw it all, why didn't you stop them?" Chen Jinxiang glared at them. "You just watched them leave?"

"Ha," Zhao Bin was also a little annoyed by her attitude, "Me stop them? How am I supposed to stop them? There are six or seven of them."

“That’s right,” Wang Guilan also stood up. She usually doted on her son like the apple of her eye, but she was actually glared at by Chen Jinxiang. Her voice also rose, “Who knows what your Wang Chao did that he shouldn’t have done to get beaten up.”

"What did you say?"

Chen Jinxiang suddenly sprang up, her eyes wide and her expression ferocious as she lunged at Wang Guilan.

I'll tear your filthy mouth apart!

"It's hard to say who's dirtier or more filthy!" Wang Guilan sneered, hiding behind Zhao Bin.

"When you shoved Qin Li into your son's bed, did you think no one saw it?"

The crowd immediately fell silent as soon as those words were spoken.

Everyone looked confused.

What?

Did Xiao Qin, the educated youth, crawl into Wang Chao's bed?

They looked at Wang Guilan, then at Chen Jinxiang and Zhang Zi, who was standing to the side.

For a moment, the only sound was the soft rustling of the wind through the leaves.

Xie Zhuo glanced at Wang Chao, who was lying on the ground, with great interest.

Then, when Wang Chao looked over, she gave him a slight smile.

Wang Chao struggled instantly.

But at this moment, everyone's attention was on something else, and no one was paying attention to his situation.

Xu Yan had just walked over when he heard such explosive news, and stood there motionless for a long time.

After carefully recalling some of the plot points from the original book, I finally confirmed that the book described Qin Li as marrying Wang Chao and then running away after getting into university.

I never imagined the plot would veer off to the Taklamakan Desert.

“I also know that your daughter-in-law’s child isn’t from your Wang family,” Wang Guilan said again, dropping another bombshell. “You know that too, which is why you went to Qin Li.”

"You're thinking of squeezing your daughter-in-law out once Qin Li gets pregnant," Wang Guilan sneered. "You've got a really clever plan."

"It's a pity your son is such a romantic. After your daughter-in-law caught him in the act, he insisted on breaking up with Qin Li, and then Qian Laopo dragged Qin Li away to be Wang Ermazi's wife."

The crowd became quieter.

They looked at Wang Guilan one by one, then at Chen Jinxiang, whose face was dark and looked like she was about to pounce on Wang Guilan at any moment, and finally their gazes settled on Zhang Zi and her slightly protruding belly.

Chen Jinxiang was so angry she was about to die.

She didn't know how Wang Guilan knew about these things.

She was always extremely careful when she brought Qin Li over, so there was no way a fourth person could have known.

And that little slut Zhang Zi!

She's already had affairs with other women, yet she still manages to completely bewitch her good-for-nothing son!

A major battle was averted upon Song Guangming's arrival.

When Xie Zhuo saw that Xu Yan had also arrived, he pulled her to stand at the farthest point in the crowd, afraid that she would be bumped into by the chaotic crowd.

“You,” Xu Yan looked up at Xie Zhuo.

"Hmm?" Xie Zhuo lowered his eyes slightly.

"Does Wang Chao's matter have anything to do with you?" Xu Yan thought for a moment and then asked.
