The control group in the chronological text of Chapter 191 (7)

Someone has fainted!

Around two or three in the afternoon, Changqing heard a commotion. Sure enough, Su Hui had made her move.

Changqing looked over.

A crowd had already gathered over there.

"Quick, help them to the shade of a tree."

Someone shouted.

"No, we need to go to the clinic."

Su Yu squeezed into the crowd.

"My cousin is feeling a bit weak; she needs to see a doctor, just in case something serious happens!"

Without saying a word, she picked up Su Hui and walked out of the crowd.

Changqing frowned.

Is Su Yu really that enthusiastic?

He had some doubts.

So he found an excuse to follow them.

Then, Su Yu was seen carrying Su Hui, turning left and right, not heading towards the clinic at the east end of the village at all. Instead, they detoured past Wang Laizi's house, and at the door, they asked Wang Laizi's mother for a drink of water before turning around and leaving.

"Heh, what a thought..."

Changqing noticed from afar that Wang Laizi quietly came out of the house and followed him. He couldn't help but sneer.

He wasn't in a hurry.

They continued to watch from a distance.

This time, Su Yu's route led towards the village doctor at the east end of the village. However, she seemed a little tired. When she passed a haystack, she stopped, put Su Hui on her back behind the haystack, looked back, and then headed towards the river, seemingly intending to wash her face and cool off.

Not far behind her, Wang Laizi was overjoyed and was about to dart out when he suddenly felt a weight on his shoulder.

"who?"

He was startled and turned around abruptly, only to see Changqing's ambiguous smile. Immediately, he felt relieved; he was just an educated youth, nothing to be afraid of.

"Get lost! Don't ruin your grandpa's plans, or I'll beat you up too! I'm crazy, but beating people up isn't illegal!"

Wang Laizi's bald head gleamed, his face flushed with excitement, and he gritted his teeth, threatening in a low voice.

Changqing raised an eyebrow.

Madness?

He had never heard of it before. Was it a mental illness?

However, threatening him would be ridiculous.

Changqing slashed Wang Laizi on the back of the neck with a scissor-like motion, instantly knocking him unconscious.

Then, he dragged Wang Laizi into the nearby woods.

When Wang Laizi woke up again, he was in a sinkhole. When he opened his eyes, he saw a hole about ten feet in diameter, dark and unfathomable.

I was immediately terrified.

"What, what are you going to do?"

When he discovered that his hands and feet were bound by vines, he was terrified. Was he going to be killed?

Changqing's smile was chilling.

"Wang Laizi, aren't you mentally ill? It's normal for you to slip and fall into the sinkhole during a fit of madness."

"This is illegal!" Wang Laizi's legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground.

"Breaking the law? Didn't you just want to break the law?" Changqing sneered and stepped forward.

His handsome face was like a devil in Wang Laizi's eyes, which frightened Wang Laizi into screaming.

"Spare me, please spare me! I'll never do it again!"

Tears streamed down Wang Laizi's face. He was no longer insane and begged for mercy repeatedly.

Changqing kicked him in the waist, sending him even closer to the cave entrance, which startled Wang Laizi into another scream.

"No, Grandpa, please let me go! I'll do whatever you say from now on. I'll never steal chickens or dogs again, and I won't peep at those female educated youths anymore. As long as you spare me, I promise I'll turn over a new leaf!"

"No, no, I'll turn myself in right now! I'll go to the police station and turn myself in! I'm not human! Just ignore me!"

In that life-or-death moment, Wang Laizi truly disregarded everything, his face covered in saliva and tears, his pleas for mercy echoing endlessly.

Changqing smiled and sat down.

Seeing that he didn't intend to make a move, Wang Laizi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sir, I... I was just confused for a moment. If I had known that Su Hui was the woman you had your eye on, I wouldn't have dared to have any thoughts about her even if you gave me a dozen lives. Please, please forgive me this time. I promise I'll never do it again!"

Changqing snorted and asked, "Did Su Yu send you to follow us? Answer honestly!"

Wang Laizi quickly replied, "No, I just saw them passing by at home, and that's when I got the idea..."

I see.

Changqing realized that Su Yu hadn't actually colluded with Wang Laizi; she had only taken advantage of his lust.

"Um, sir, could you please let me go?"

Seeing Changqing remain silent, Wang Laizi felt uneasy and cautiously spoke again.

"Of course, I'll untie it for you right away."

Changqing suddenly smiled and stood up. Wang Laizi quickly turned his back and exposed his hands, which were tied behind his back. However, the next moment, he felt a heavy kick on his back, and then he fell directly into the sinkhole.

"ah!"

The scream was short and muffled, and quickly disappeared.

Changqing stood silently for a while, then threw in a stone.

Ding ding dong.

It rang for several minutes before finally going silent.

Changqing felt no guilt whatsoever at killing a scoundrel.

He didn't waste much time.

He quickly returned to the work area, his water bottle still full of cold well water, which he even kindly shared with the other busy educated youth.

"Thank you, Changqing, this water is really cool."

Wang Yue took a big gulp and sincerely thanked them.

"You're so efficient at your work, even faster than those older educated youth."

Xing Yan, standing nearby, took a sip of cold water and couldn't help but sigh. Only those who work quickly can run to get water in the middle of the process. For them, completing the task was already a struggle, but they dared not be distracted at all.

Changqing smiled and said, "I brought some candy with me. I suck on one when I'm hungry to replenish my sugar levels, so I can have some energy. Here, I'll give you a few too."

He actually took out some candy and shared it with the two of them, and even gave some to the older educated youth.

This improved the other educated youth's impression of him considerably.

He didn't get along with Zhao Jianguo from the moment he arrived. Later, when Zhao Jianguo fell ill, all the other educated youths went to the hospital with him, but he didn't. This made many of them have a bad impression of him, thinking he was cold-hearted. But now it seems he's actually a pretty good person.

Zhao Jianguo really doesn't know how to behave!

The group had just exchanged a few words.

Su Yu came running over, panting.

"Grandpa and Grandma, something terrible has happened! My cousin..."

The sound was so loud that it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Grandpa Su was already worried, so he quickly went up to ask what had happened.

Su Yu, panting, said that her cousin woke up on the way and wanted to drink water, so she went to get some, but then she found that her cousin was gone.

She looked anxious. "Grandpa and Grandma, quickly call someone to go look for them."

Everyone was getting anxious.

They all put down what they were doing and followed.

The captain also stepped forward, "Where exactly did you go missing? Take us there."

Su Yu looked flustered.

He secretly chuckled to himself.

Hehe, Su Hui, this time the whole village will see you and Wang Laizi doing something good behind the haystack. Let's see how you try to deny it now.

She deliberately passed by Wang Laizi's house.

And I saw with my own eyes that old lecher following me.

By now, they must have succeeded.

"It was at the haystack in Caomu Bay, I..."

Su Yu said as she led the way.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, she heard someone in the crowd behind her question, "Caomuwan? You don't need to go through Caomuwan to get to the village clinic from here, do you?"

Su Yu's heart skipped a beat. She looked over and, sure enough, the person speaking was Wan Zhiqing.

"I, I..."

Seeing that everyone was also looking doubtful, she felt a surge of nervousness.

"I took the wrong turn because I was in a hurry."

She hurriedly explained.

Changqing gave a cold laugh and said nothing more.

Desperate to take the wrong turn? Most people probably wouldn't believe that.

However, no one was concerned about this at the moment; instead, they urged Su Yu to lead the way.

soon.

A group of people arrived at the haystack.

"I...I was just here..."

Su Yu was a little excited and pointed ahead.

But the next moment, she froze.

Behind the haystack, Su Hui sat perfectly still, seemingly awake, her eyes fixed on her.
