Shen Heng, the village bully of Shili Village, has a fierce and intimidating persona.
To everyone's surprise, his newly wedded little wife is not afraid of him at all. In fact, she keeps ...
"Heng-ge, why don't you wait here for your wife? I'll take the train tomorrow morning and head over there as soon as I get off. They can't possibly wait a few hours, right?"
Wang Fushun said.
Shen Heng said, "How about this, I'll call my brother-in-law first and have him pick up the goods. The truck has already been arranged, so I'll have him deliver it to the warehouse. You can go to the warehouse to check the goods later."
"Okay, Heng-ge, let's go back to the guesthouse first. You haven't slept for a day and a night, and you still have to pick up your wife tomorrow morning."
The two returned to the guesthouse and ordered some food to be delivered to their room.
Shen Heng sat cross-legged on the bed: "Tell me, this is just a coincidence. I just wanted to beat him up, and he actually managed to have someone kill him."
No matter how powerful Shen Heng is, he's still just an ordinary citizen, and a murder case like this is quite shocking to him.
"Yu Wenli is someone who's bound to have a lot of enemies. That guy isn't honest; he's got a pretty face, and he might have been seducing other people's women, and they're just jealous and angry because they've been cheated on."
When the topic turned to gossip, Wang Fushun also became interested. The rumors about Yu Wenli's romantic affairs had spread to their village. This guy had been working in the countryside for three years and had two wives. Each wife had caused him a lot of trouble. His mother had said that this guy would eventually fall into trouble because of this.
Shen Heng thought so too. Yu Wenli was always acting like a coward, annoying as he was, but he wouldn't dare do anything outrageous. All he did was flirt with women.
"If I weren't in such a hurry to get the goods, I would really like to stay here and wait to see who killed him."
Nothing is more important than making money. No matter how strong Wang Fushun's curiosity is, he can't give up his serious business.
Shen Heng said, "When your sister-in-law arrives, I'd like to show her around here for a couple of days. Maybe we can wait until the case is closed. If there's any news, I'll go back and let you know."
Shen Heng wasn't a gossipy person, but he was genuinely interested in this matter.
He wanted to know which bandits had done something so incredible.
"Okay, I should bring my sister-in-law here. There are so many more options than in the department stores in Yancheng. She'll definitely be happy."
The guesthouse brought out two bowls of noodles, and after Shen Heng ate them, he quickly went to sleep.
Bai Jiaojiao was on her way, and Shen Heng was worried about her, so he couldn't sleep well and tossed and turned in bed. Wang Fushun got up early to catch the train, and Shen Heng woke up as well.
"Heng-ge, didn't your wife's car say it would arrive around eleven? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"I went to bed early yesterday and got enough sleep."
After calming down, he and Wang Fushun packed their luggage and then booked a new room at the front desk.
The room he shared with Wang Fushun was a small, shabby single room with two small beds and a table. The new room is a deluxe standard room, which is not only fully equipped, but also has an extra layer of mattress on the mattress, and there is a carpet at the entrance.
Wang Fushun left on his own, and Shen Heng went to the market alone, bought some fruits that Bai Jiaojiao liked, as well as some imported snacks and candies, put them in the room, and then went to the station early to wait.
Bai Jiaojiao checked her watch every half minute on the train, wishing she could fly there.
Yang Fenglin kept comforting her: "Sister, don't worry, don't worry at all. Don't ruin your health. Just take a nap now, and you'll be there soon when you wake up."
Yang Fenglin's words of comfort had some effect; Bai Jiaojiao closed her eyes, but she couldn't fall asleep.
Because she left in a hurry, Yang Changping only managed to get two seat tickets. She was already physically weak, and she kept pushing herself. When the train arrived at the station and Bai Jiaojiao stood up, she almost collapsed because her legs gave way.
Yang Fenglin quickly helped her up: "Sister, are you alright?"
"It's alright, let's go quickly."
Bai Jiaojiao helped Yang Fenglin catch his breath, then picked up her bag and got out of the car.
She packed only one change of clothes and left everything else behind.
Yang Fenglin, dressed in military uniform, had a deterrent effect along the way, and when they got off the bus, everyone gave him and Bai Jiaojiao a wide berth.
"Sis, we'll go to the police station in a bit and ask about the situation. Don't rush, let's discuss it with Dad first."
Seeing that Bai Jiaojiao seemed a little absent-minded, Yang Fenglin gave her some instructions.
"Um."
"Sister, sister, look, it's brother-in-law!"
Yang Fenglin was looking at the road when he noticed that among a group of people soliciting guests at the station entrance, Shen Heng's tall figure stood out immediately.
Bai Jiaojiao was already doing well enough to be able to watch her own path, so she didn't pay any attention. Only when she heard Yang Fenglin shout did she look up and see Shen Heng waving at her with a silly grin on his face.
"Feng Lin, am I seeing things?"
"No, sis, that's brother-in-law! Brother-in-law is fine, isn't he?!" Yang Fenglin had been suppressing his emotions all day. He didn't dare to speak when he saw Bai Jiaojiao's dejected appearance in the car. He was almost suffocating.
He quickly pulled Bai Jiaojiao out of the station: "Brother-in-law, are you alright!"
"It's nothing." Shen Heng reached out to Bai Jiaojiao, drawing her closer. "I'm sorry to have worried you. It was Shunzi who couldn't hold back. I just had someone take him away for a short while, and he started running around making a scene. Did he scare you?"
Shen Heng spoke softly and gently, coaxing Bai Jiaojiao.
The station was bustling with people, but Bai Jiaojiao suddenly hugged Shen Heng tightly: "You scared me to death! I didn't know what to do the whole way here."
If murderers were to pay with their lives, and this happened to Shen Heng, Bai Jiaojiao would truly be devastated.
She didn't dare to think too much about it while in the car. What if they were there to collect Shen Heng's body? Would she still have the strength to go home?
"I'm sorry, it was my fault. There won't be a next time." Shen Heng patted Bai Jiaojiao's back with one hand, and with the other hand, he put Bai Jiaojiao's bag on his shoulder.
Feeling a little embarrassed in front of everyone, Bai Jiaojiao suppressed her lingering fear and pulled away from Chen Heng's embrace.
Yang Fenglin, who was waiting on the side, then said, "Brother-in-law, you really scared us to death. Did you call my dad? I kept saying on the way here that someone as sensible as you would never do something like this."
Shen Heng glanced at Yang Fenglin; this kid was the smartest.
He's not someone who'd risk everything these days. He has a wife and son; he wouldn't act impulsively.
If he can't even control his own emotions, how can he expect to take care of Bai Jiaojiao?
"Let's go. Judging from your appearance, you probably didn't sleep all night. My room at the guesthouse is already booked, but I can only book one room per person. Feng Lin, you'll have to bring your ID to book it yourself."
"It's alright, brother-in-law, you can take my sister to rest. Once we're in the guesthouse, you don't need to worry about me. I'm a grown woman, I can take care of myself."
Yang Fenglin was very perceptive and resolutely refused to be the kind of person that loving young couples hated most.
Shen Heng took Bai Jiaojiao back to the guesthouse and asked, "Are you hungry? Eat something first, then wash your face and get a good night's sleep."
