Chapter 271 Sister-in-law, I'm my brother

In the hospital ward.

Ling Huanwu lay motionless.

Her hand remained on her stomach, her mind filled with a myriad of thoughts.

In her previous life, when she found out she was pregnant, she started vomiting uncontrollably.

In this life, she actually climbed a high mountain while pregnant and did so much exercise; I wonder if it will affect the child.

Ling Huanwu took a deep breath, intending to go to her space to drink some spiritual spring water to calm her nerves, when she heard a knock on the door.

"Sister-in-law, open the door, it's my brother!"

Ling Huanwu jumped out of bed with a start.

Why does that voice sound so much like Zhou Shuyao's?

Moreover, only Zhou Shuyao would call her sister-in-law.

Thinking that Zhou Shuyao might be alright, she rushed over to open the door.

"Shuyao!"

The door opened a crack, and Ling Huanwu looked at the familiar faces at the doorway. Her face instantly darkened.

These five people were the demolition team workers who usually followed Su Haiting, and they all followed Su Haiting's lead.

When they blew up the cemetery before, those guys were Su Haiting's most obedient dogs.

Ling Huanwu didn't say much. She grabbed the doorknob and was about to close the door when the group of them pushed it open.

Before anyone could react, several people squeezed in, and Su Haiting, who was the last to enter, locked the door behind her.

With that push, Ling Huanwu protected her stomach and turned around to avoid it hitting the sharp corner of the desk.

But her back hit the corner of the table, and she gasped in pain.

"What are you doing? Are you trying to commit indecent acts?"

The five men stepped forward in unison, their lewd expressions masking Su Haiting's face contorted with rage.

"Ling Huanwu, it's your mother-in-law, no, your ex-mother-in-law, who sent us to take care of you. After all, you're pregnant, how come you're all alone!"

Su Haiting flicked her braid, her distorted face transforming into a sinister sneer.

The lewd gazes of the men in front of her all swept over Ling Huanwu, accompanied by wicked laughter.

"Yes, the five of us are taking care of you together. Aren't you happy? Aren't you excited?"

Ling Huanwu felt so disgusted watching the men take off their clothes and pull out their belts that she almost vomited.

Although the villagers were all gathered in the training ground, the office was in a corner of the training ground, and with the noise outside, no one could probably hear what was happening in the office at that moment.

Su Haiting had this in mind, wanting her to be completely helpless and unable to get help.

They also knew she wouldn't dare to speak up afterward.

The five male henchmen in front of Su Haiting were eager to fight, and they cornered Ling Huanwu completely, their eyes full of ill intent.

In their view, Ling Huanwu was pregnant, so even if they cornered and bullied her, she would never dare to make a fuss, lest it implicate the child in her womb and cause gossip.

So when Su Haiting made this suggestion, the group thought about it for a while and then agreed.

"Ling Huanwu, aren't you so capable? You stole my man and then pretended to be a good person, making everyone side with you!"

Su Haiting stood in front of Ling Huanwu with her hands on her hips, her eyes filled with contempt and amusement. "Today, let my brothers give you a good 'advice' so you know who to listen to here! Oh, and don't count on those country bumpkins. If they knew you'd been treated like this, let's see if they'd still treat you like a benefactor!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the five henchmen swarmed forward like hungry wolves. Some reached out to grab Ling Huanwu's arm, while others tried to press her down into a chair, showing no fear of the countless villagers outside the door.

Ling Huanwu remained completely calm and used her consciousness to open up the space.

Just as the henchman at the front was about to touch the hem of her clothes, she swayed and disappeared from their sight like smoke blown away by the wind!

Where are they?

Su Haiting reached out and grabbed nothing, freezing in place.

The five henchmen were also bewildered. They looked at each other and paced around the room, wondering, "They were just here! Did they crawl under the table?"

While they were noisily searching with their heads down, Ling Huanwu had already emerged from the space and stood silently behind them.

Before the others could react, she gripped the short hardwood stick she had taken from her spatial storage and gently tapped the lower back of the follower closest to her.

The man lost his grip and cried out, stumbling forward and crashing into another person's back. The two of them tumbled and fell into a chaotic mess.

Hearing the noise, Su Haiting turned around and saw that it was Ling Huanwu. She was tripped by Ling Huanwu's outstretched foot and fell to the wet, cold ground with a thud.

She screamed in fright, "Where...where did you go just now?"

Do I need to tell you where I'm going?

Ling Huanwu's voice was as cold as the storm outside. She then turned to the three remaining followers who hadn't reacted yet. Before they could make a move, she held the short stick horizontally in front of her and glanced at them. "Do you want to continue, or do you want to get lost now?"

The three henchmen, seeing their companion groaning on the ground and then looking at Ling Huanwu who suddenly "disappeared," completely lost their courage.

One of the more timid ones even stared at Ling Huanwu's feet, trembling as he said, "You...you didn't have a shadow just now? Could it be...a ghost?"

Upon hearing this, Su Haiting panicked, scrambled to her feet, and ran towards the door, shouting, "A ghost! There really is a ghost!"

The remaining people also rushed out like madmen, not even bothering to pull up their companions who had fallen to the ground. They jostled and pushed through the crowd, shouting "The office is haunted!" as they ran, startling the villagers who were outside seeking shelter from the storm surge, who craned their necks to look.

Ling Huanwu stood at the door, watching their disheveled escape, quietly put the short stick back into her space, and then touched her lower abdomen.

I was very gentle just now, thankfully I didn't aggravate the fetus.

Hearing the commotion, the villagers outside came in one after another, asking what was wrong. She just smiled gently and said, "Nothing, they're probably just panicking because they're afraid of being swept away by the storm surge."

The commotion attracted Political Commissar Hao and Captain Sun. They glanced at Su Haiting and the others who had run out of the camp gate, and noticed that two of the men had their pants down. Their hearts jumped into their throats, and they rushed into the office.

Seeing Ling Huanwu standing there unharmed, they breathed a sigh of relief. "They didn't do anything, did they? Xiao Wang, find two people to guard the door..."

Political Commissar Hao instructed Guard Wang to send someone to protect her, but Ling Huanwu quickly waved her hand and refused.

"No, the soldiers are probably busy, how can I trouble you?"

"Our campsite isn't big enough to hold so many people. It would be great if we had tents."

Captain Sun nodded, wiping the sweat from his brow. "Yes, we're setting up the rest of the tents outside. The villagers have also come to help. Oh, by the way, your cooperative's Tiedan is quite capable; the tents he set up are just as good as ours..."

"Tie Dan?"

Ling Huanwu suddenly recalled the scene when she bumped into Tie Dan Gang Pao and Song Panmei talking in Stone Village.

At that time, the voice of the cannon was clearly a woman's voice.

A bad feeling immediately welled up in my heart.

Ling Huanwu asked subconsciously, "When did Tiedan and Gangpao arrive at the mountain camp?"

Political Commissar Hao and Captain Sun exchanged a glance and immediately realized something was wrong. "When we came up to open the camp gate, we heard from the villagers that when they arrived at the camp, Tiedan and Gangpao were already waiting at the camp gate!"
