"Don't make it sound so high and mighty. It's clearly not your doing!" the gatekeeper couldn't help but retort.

When the village chief heard the gatekeeper say that, he wanted nothing more than to tear him apart. It was that old man again! If his mother hadn't forbade them to kill him before she died, he wouldn't have had the chance to spout nonsense here.

Seeing the young people from the village arrive, all looking menacing, Xu Zhurui was instantly frightened: "Nanqu, it's all your fault! Saying all that nonsense, if you want to be a hero, be one yourself, why drag us into this?"

The others also looked grim, realizing they might be in mortal danger.

The live stream was overwhelmingly in favor of Nanqu:

[Exactly, she could have waited until after they got out to discuss this. Why risk everyone's lives?]

[I knew I didn't like this woman, why is she acting like such a fool?]

【No, did you call the police?】

Ah, I can't watch anymore.

[That's so far from the police station, it would take them a long time to get there, wouldn't it?]

[You're just a minor celebrity, why did you have to drag so many people down with you when you died?]

[Ah, don't say death, sob sob, I'll book a plane ticket right now, I need to save my brother.]

The live stream room was in complete chaos, but everyone's attention was focused on the present, so no one could care less about that.

Nan Qu wasn't sure when the reinforcements Su Ruoyan had called would arrive, but seeing the village chief's expression of wanting to kill the gatekeeper, she instinctively shielded him behind her.

"I was the one who said this, it has nothing to do with them. But doesn't your arrival prove that what I said is true?"

As Nan Qu spoke, she walked forward until she stood in front of all the guests and staff, almost two steps away from the people opposite her.

Director Li was so nervous his heart was in his throat: "Nan, Nan Qu, lean back, lean back!"

At this moment, the cameras in the live stream were all behind Nan Qu, and everyone could only see her slender back.

Seeing Nan Qu standing so close to those people, everyone present was extremely nervous. However, Nan Qu remained calm as she looked at the village chief: "If you don't want people to know, don't do it in the first place. Since Liu Xiang did those things back then, don't blame her for being exposed now. I suppose that now that Liu Xiang's affairs have been exposed, your time as village chief is over."

Then it's time to settle accounts for the money you embezzled. Who knows what might come next?

Upon hearing this, the village chief panicked at first, but then, seeing that he could hit Nan Qu's head with a single swing of his hoe, he could no longer conceal the murderous intent in his eyes.

The village chief, realizing that he would face certain death if his actions were investigated, could no longer hold back.

It's all because of this woman in front of him. If it weren't for her, this variety show would have brought him both fame and fortune; he might even have become the second hero of Wushan Village after his mother. But now, it's all ruined.

"Don't listen to her nonsense! She's the one who ruined our village's image. Our village could have taken this opportunity to become rich, but she's ruined it all. We can't let her get away with this! Attack her!"

Among these people were several of his confidants, along with his son. They led a group of people to surge towards Nanqu.

In an instant, everyone gasped in surprise.

Even the viewers in the live stream were terrified:

Be careful!

[Ahhh, I can't watch anymore! Where are the police?]

[Waaaaah, even though you caused this, you're still just a girl. How could you possibly defend yourself against those people?]

What kind of hero are you trying to be?!

Nan Qu's actions left the viewers in the live stream speechless. She was the one who caused the trouble, but she did it for justice.

However, her actions put everyone in a difficult position. Yet, she stood in front of everyone.

It's hard to say.

Nan Qu's lips curled up; she had just said those things to provoke the village chief.

Actually, she had no idea what the village chief had done, but there was definitely corruption involved. Take the roads, for example. Nan Qu heard about this yesterday while touring Wumeng Town; with the good policies these days, every village has a road paving project.

In other words, the roads in the nearby villages have all been paved with cement. But today, Wushan Village still has the stone-paved roads from decades ago.

While stone-paved roads can certainly be a distinctive feature of a village, at the very least, the main roads should be paved with cement to facilitate vehicle traffic. However, Wushan Village lacks this.

As for the rest, Nan Qu wasn't very clear, but this alone was enough for her to give the village chief a piece of her mind.

To be honest, it was the village chief who got anxious first.

Those things were done by Liu Xiang. Now that she is dead, even if the truth is known to everyone, it will only make people sigh, and it will not change anything.

In just half a day, how could Nanqu possibly uncover any evidence of the village chief's crimes? Furthermore, given the underdeveloped internet here, even Su Ruoyan's side couldn't uncover anything more in such a short time.

However, it's interesting that the village chief led the fight. At least it gave Su Ruoyan time to investigate the truth.

Nanqu casually caught the hoe that the village chief was looking at, and with a pull and a tug, the hoe was in her hand.

The next second, the hoe was pointed directly at the village chief's nose. The village chief's attack had been filmed, proving that he had struck first. With the evidence in hand, she naturally wasn't going to back down.

It won't make people afraid.

"Are you sure you want them to come forward again? Next time, it won't be the tip of their nose, it'll be the back of their head."
